"Is she really with Huston?" Lucy did not believe it. After all, such a long time had passed. Even if she believed it, she would still be suspicious.
As for this matter, Grace could guarantee it. "Yes, they are together. I'm sure."
"That's good." Ben, who had been silent all this time, suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. "Huston is more mature. It's better to have him around than to be alone."
Although Lucy was worried, there was nothing she could do. She could only remind her earnestly, "Grace, if you have any news about them, you must tell me and your uncle."
"Don't worry, Auntie. I will."
After coming out of Evelyn's house, Grace didn't dare to stop at all and got in the car and drove out of the community. She didn't turn off the engine until she drove all the way downstairs.
Leaning against the back of the chair behind her, she opened the skylight above her head. A gentle night breeze blew in, bringing in a bit of chilliness.
After a moment of silence, she took out her mobile phone and dialed a number she was not familiar with.
The phone was busy and it took her a long time to get through. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a woman's voice.
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
The woman's voice sounded clear, but it was obvious that she was no more than 25 years old.
Didn't Bert always care about Evelyn? When did he have another woman by his side?
She restrained her emotions and said calmly, "I'm looking for Bert. Please give him the phone and tell him that I'm a friend of Evelyn."
In less than two seconds, she heard a familiar male voice coming from the microphone. "What's wrong with her?"
He was so fast that he must have been standing next to her just now. As for why he let the other person answer the phone, he probably didn't have her number. He thought that it was an outsider, so he was on guard.
After hanging up the phone, Bert's whole body was extremely tense. He immediately called Evelyn. As soon as the phone was connected, he heard a cold and mechanical female voice.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable for the time being. Please..."
Before she could finish her words, the man hung up the phone irritably and dialed again. The result was the same as before.
"Shit!" He threw the phone on the table, and Alivia was shocked.
Since she was shot and was about to recover, she had been with Bert. During this period, she proposed to return home, but he refused. Now...
Alivia looked at the man's face and asked carefully, "Are you going back?"
Bert realized that she was still by his side. He looked at her with his deep and sharp eyes, with a hint of anxiety and anger. "Didn't you want to go back? I'll grant your wish this time."
