There was another voice after that, one that belonged to a woman. This voice was also very familiar to me. It was the voice of Delia who was sitting opposite me.
My expression darkened immediately because the conversation between them was a bit obscene. In other words, they were paying me no consideration at all.
Delia’s every sentence sounded like she was trying to trap him as she tried to figure out our relationship. Theo was very careful, however, and his answers were ironclad.
It was very obvious that Theo was wary of Delia. He did not want to give her the chance for exploitation at all.
I had no patience to continue listening anymore, or one could say I was a little bored. I looked at Delia. “You called me here just to let me listen to this boring voice recording? Delia, are you that bored?
"Even if you really are, I don't have time to accompany you. I’m leaving. You can listen to the rest of the recording yourself!”
I picked up my bag after I said that and was about to get up and leave when Delia stopped me. “Don't be in a rush. I don't blame you if you for finding the start boring, but you must listen carefully to what comes later. It’s about your own safety, after all.”
Delia could not hide the smile on her face when she said this. Happiness filled her entire face.
Hearing this, I became suspicious.
Since Delia had already said this, I sat down once again.
The two of them continued with their pointless exploration and confrontations. I almost fell asleep listening to it when I suddenly heard them talk about me.
Delia was asking Theo about me in the recording.
“How do you plan to deal with Wanda? She is, after all, your initial partner.”
Theo was silent for a moment, but his voice was still so cold.
