"You..."
Charles slammed the gas pedal, his phone pressed to his ear. "Where are you?"
"Uh, we're on the road, heading to Noelle's place..."
"Forget the apartment. I need to get to Phoenix Tree Residence, Sean. Take me there!" Noelle finally snapped out of her daze, her eyes locking on Sean. "Take me to Phoenix Tree Residence."
Sean hesitated. "The thing is, over at Phoenix Tree Residence..."
"Sean, just get Noelle to Phoenix Tree Residence!" Charles barked, whipping the car around a sharp bend. "Hand Noelle the phone!"
Sean passed the phone to Noelle. "Noelle, Sean will drop you off. I'll be there soon!"
"Alright!" Noelle shivered, a wave of warmth rushing over her. "I'll be waiting, Charles! I'll wait forever if I have to!"
Noelle ended the call and passed the phone back to Sean. Sean shot her a quick look, his mind buzzing with silent gripes. Was his advice really that worthless compared to Charles's? If he had known, he would not have bothered getting involved.
This whole situation had left him feeling down, especially since he was clueless about what had gone wrong. He could not shake the worry that Charles might think he had messed things up and would come after him later.
With those thoughts nagging at him, Sean floored the gas pedal.
Charles zoomed straight from the Hoffman family's old place to Phoenix Tree Residence. Sean and Noelle were already there when he arrived.
