"Ring ring!" The phone rang immediately.
Luca was so frightened that he almost dropped the phone.
When he calmed down, he saw the incoming call was from "Emma Babe".
It was really a blessing, not a curse, and it was a disaster that cannot be avoided.
Luca quickly calculated in his mind, what should he do?
Anyway, I cannot answer it. Once I open my mouth, it is all over.
I cannot tell a lie.
Then decline.
Luca refused to answer, then clicked on WhatsApp and sent a message: I am dealing with something urgent, it is not convenient to answer the phone.
Here, Emmeline saw that Abel had finally made a move, and was overjoyed.
Immediately she sent another one: Hubby, where did you go, and you did not tell me.
Luca looked at these words and felt a little silly.
However, there was no other way, he could only continue, and typed another line: I am sorry babe, I did not have time to say it.
He had heard Mr. Abel called Ms. Louise this way – babe.
When he heard it, he cringed.
However, at this moment, he had no choice but to type the word.
Babe?
After typing, Luca felt that the name was really nice.
"However, you did not bring a change of clothes, how could you be in such a hurry?" Emmeline asked over there.
"I had no time," Luca replied, "I could just get two pairs of suits here and make do with them."
Make do with them?
Emmeline frowned.
Abel did not have the habit of making do with things.
He was very particular about his clothes, and his suit must be black.
Moreover, he had fixed options for which brands the suits to go with and which brands the shirts to go with.
He would never leave these brands.
There were also belt buckles and tie clips, which seemed to have nothing to do with each other, but in fact they echoed each other.
Every single detail, he was never sloppy.
Emmeline frowned: Hubby, you were not like this before?
Luca was stunned for a moment, where did he give it away?
He carefully looked at the message he had just sent.
He thought about it in his mind, and also felt that it was from "make do with them". There was a problem with those words.
Mr. Abel of their family could never make do with things.
Luca thought for a while: This time the matter is really urgent, I cannot care about other things.
Emmeline: Tell me where you are, and I'll send you clothes there. Adelmar's helicopter will be there soon.
"..." Luca: Do not bother, do not roam around if you have bad eyesight, I'll be back in a few days.
Emmeline: I just asked where are you now?
"..." Luca: Hudrein.
Hudrein?
Emmeline immediately felt something was wrong.
So she typed: Did you take an international flight or a private jet?
When Luca saw this, he also realized that he was in trouble.
He lied and missed the point.
Why was he not more careful?
It would not take private jets so long to get to Hudrein, and international flights would not be able to get him there.
Luca held the mobile phone and cocked his fingers, not knowing what to type next.
"Babe" and all that would not be able to work anymore.
After thinking about it, he typed out a few words: I am busy right now, let's talk about it later.
When Emmeline saw these words, she immediately felt that the person on the other end was not Abel.
On one hand the travel time mentioned by the other party did not add up; on the other hand was that Abel would never talk to her impatiently.
So what was going on?
Did something happen to Abel?
Who is holding Abel's phone over there?
Luca put down his phone, raised his hand and slapped himself on the head.
There was a loophole in lying, how could it be remedied now?
If Ms. Louise became suspicious, how should he continue to make it up?
