Yvonne advised her.
“Which car should I get into?”
At that moment, Gerald stepped outside once he was done with his work.
He saw that there were many cars parked in front of him. He could not help but ask Yvonne since she was the one who asked him to stay for the clean-up.
‘Does she want me to hail a taxi back just like the last time?’
“You can just get into any car you want. Don’t you notice that Felicity is feeling troubled? You’re just so dim-witted, good-for-nothing!”
Yvonne scolded him impatiently.
“Yvonne, don’t bother him. Help me think of a way to reply Ordinary Man’s message quickly!’
Felicity said anxiously.
As they were discussing, Felicity then thought of a response. She then drafted the reply.
The sound of a bell was heard.
In that instance, a sharp notification tone ringed and Felicity caught it faintly. It seemed to come from a student’s phone from the car beside them.
It stunned Felicity.
“Oh gosh! What’s going on? Yvonne, did you hear that?”
“What?”
“I don’t know whether it’s just a coincidence. You know what? When I sent a message just now, I heard a notification ringtone from one of the cars, receiving a message.”
Felicity thought, ‘It doesn’t seem like a coincidence.’
‘Does it mean that Ordinary Man is one of my classmates?
‘Who could he be?’
Felicity became anxious.
“I didn’t hear that. Besides, there are so many similar notification ringtones. Felicity, aren’t you overthinking?”
Yvonne asked, puzzled.
Felicity tried to listen, and what Yvonne said was true indeed. There were many students who received messages at the same time.
She then nodded in disappointment.
‘Yes, I’m always so anxious when it comes to Ordinary Man. Even now, I’ve become so sensitive and nervous about him.’
