Broken Vows and Buried Twins novel Chapter 206

Hester hesitated for a moment before answering.

"Hello?"

No response from the other end.

Hester frowned slightly. "Hello?"

The person still didn't speak.

Wrong number?

Hester waited another beat. Just as she was about to hang up, a deep voice finally sounded: "It's me."

Hearing that voice, Hester froze.

Julian.

Her expression instantly turned icy. Without a single word, she hung up.

But Julian was persistent; he called back immediately.

Hester, naturally, didn't answer.

She blocked the number right then and there.

But Julian had obviously anticipated this reaction.

A few minutes later, a text message arrived from a different unknown number:

[I saw the news about the typhoon. You should go to another city for now. I've already arranged for someone to pick you up.]

Hester blocked that number too.

She wanted nothing to do with him, but she wasn't going to risk her safety just out of spite.

Even without his reminder, she had already been planning to leave town to dodge the storm.

However, Julian's little stunt made one thing very clear.

His people were definitely nearby.

Hester narrowed her eyes.
