The Returned Heiress Who Had It All (Cassia) novel Chapter 373

Chapter 373 Trust And Torn

She was right in the middle of a really good part.

Who would call her at a time like this?

Cassia felt annoyed and was about to hang up right away.

Just as her finger hovered over the screen, she caught sight of the number.

She paused, turned her head, and looked at Draven with a puzzled expression. “Why are you calling me?” she asked.

“Huh?”

Draven froze for a second. He looked at Cassia’s phone, then at his own.

“I tapped it by mistake,” he said.

?

He hung up quickly. He figured he must have accidentally touched her contact earlier.

After all, her name showed up the most in his call history.

Draven then opened the number Axel had just sent him. He was about to dial it again when his finger suddenly stopped.

He brought the phone closer and stared at the number. For a long moment.

Draven could recite that number backward.

It was Cassia’s number.

Even someone as calm as Draven nearly slid off his seat.

After a while, he slowly turned to look at her.

Cassia’s fingers were flying across her phone screen. She was fully focused, completely absorbed.

He hadn’t noticed before. But now that he looked closely, this wasn’t gaming at all. It looked like typing. Fast typing. On a full keyboard layout.

Draven leaned in and peeked at her screen.

It was full of text.

Why was she typing so much?

His eyes scanned the words. Then he saw a few names he knew very well.

One of them was the female lead from Fallen of the Massacre.

He was deeply shaken.

Ding!

At that moment, a message notification chimed. It was from Axel.

“Boss, I didn’t finish earlier. The author of that book is Mrs. Grey.”

Draven stared at the message for a long time. Then another sound came from his phone, the reading app’s bookshelf update alert.

When it rang, he instinctively looked at Cassia.

As the alert ended, she stopped typing.

Draven looked back at his phone and opened the app.

It really had updated.

The author he had been following for so long was sitting right beside him.

Suddenly, he remembered something. That day at her place, he had seen her laptop screen. It was filled with text too.

At the time, he thought it was just schoolwork.

Now he knew better. She had been writing.

And no wonder there hadn’t been updates these past few days..

Draven turned to look at Cassia again.

She was rolling her neck and stretching her arms, clearly tired from typing for too long.

His feelings grew complicated at the scene.

He wanted to read more. He wished the author would update every day. But at the same time, he didn’t want his wife to be exhausted.

Gosh! This is really hard to decide.

The car arrived at Dunstino Bay.

It was not completely dark yet. Seven walked up to Sterling’s condo, took out his key, and opened the door.

“Kid, I’m here!”

He slipped on his house slippers. When he looked up, he saw that Sterling’s bedroom door was open.

Did Cassia take him out?

That didn’t seem right. She was downstairs with his boss.

Seven hurried toward the bedroom.

The computer was still on.

He searched the room, but there was no sign of the boy.

“Kid?”

Huh? That’s strange.

Then Seven spotted a phone on the desk in the bedroom.

He walked over and picked it up.

“This is the kid’s phone.”

Wait!

‘

A few days ago, Cassia had gone to save Danica and let Tyne go.

With Tyne’s cruel and twisted nature, he wouldn’t just let things end like that. Could she have kidnapped Sterling to get back at Cassia?

Seven’s heart started pounding. He quickly pulled out his phone, about to call Cassia.

Creak!

The bathroom door opened.

Seven turned his head.
