Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 409

"Who is this?"

Byron answered the phone, and on the other end, he heard Jane's sobbing.

"Byron, it's me."

To anyone else, her crying voice might evoke sympathy, but to Byron, it only made him feel inexplicably annoyed.

"Don't call me if there's nothing wrong," he replied, wanting to hang up the phone immediately.

But Jane continued, "I ran away from home without telling my grandfather and father. I got lost outside, and I lost my wallet and phone. I don't know what to do..."

She still had a sobbing tone, and her voice trembled, portraying a sense of fear and helplessness.

Yet, as Byron heard her words, he suddenly remembered how Cora had dealt with Nicholas intruding into her room to violate her. The situation was much more severe than losing a phone and wallet, yet she hadn't called him for help. Instead, she took care of Nicholas herself.

As for the incident with Nicholas being mauled by hyenas, apart from initially crying upon hearing the news, Cora didn't show any other signs of distress.

Even though she was still scared, she didn't display it or seek pity intentionally.

Just like now, while he was on the phone, Cora obediently waited near the baggage claim area.

When their luggage arrived, she didn't ask him or Carter for help. Instead, she carried all their three suitcases down herself.

Compared with Cora, Jane seemed much more pretentious.

His tone suddenly became a lot colder.

"If you lose your phone and wallet, report it to the police. Even elementary school students know this common sense. If you can't handle such a small matter, you must either be stupid or useless."

He could almost imagine that if Cora had encountered the same situation, she would have probably caught the thief herself and taken them straight to the police station without seeking pity from unrelated people.

"Byron, I'm just so scared. I..."

Jane only planned to create an opportunity to be alone with Byron.

And if he could pity her, he might even let her stay in his apartment.

However, she never expected Byron's reaction to be like this.

"If you want sympathy, you should go to Harry," he mercilessly exposed Jane's intentions before hanging up on her.

Inside the phone booth, Jane burst into laughter after being hung up on.

Byron actually asked her to find Harry.
