Buzz…
At this time, the phone in Armand’s pocket rang. However, he did not want to answer it and let the phone vibrated.
Theresa pushed him away, “Your phone is ringing.”
Armand buried his face in Theresa’s embrace and said sullenly, “I know, but I refuse to answer it.”
“What if it’s an urgent call? Pick it up,” Theresa found his pocket and took his phone out, and handed it to Armand.
Armand had to take it over, and he took a glance at the caller ID, which it was calling from home.
He pressed the key to answering the call.
Soon Armand heard an urgent voice of the maid was coming from the other end of the phone, “Mr. Bernie, we have a situation here. Mrs. Bernie fell from the bed.”
Armand straightened his body and asked, “What’s going on?”
“I went to dry the clothes just now, and Mrs. Bernie was thirsty at that time. The water cup was a little far from her bed. She lay too close to the edge of the bed and then fell off the bed.” Armand said, “Call 120. I’ll have someone to go there soon.”
“Okay, okay.”
Armand hung up the phone and made a call to Boyce. Boyce had sent Armand a message after he bought a new phone, so Armand knew Boyce’s new phone number.
At the same time, Boyce drove his car to the villa and received a call from Armand.
“Hello…”
“Boyce, my grandma just fell off the bed, and I can’t go back home right now. Can you go and keep an eye on my grandma first? I’m rushing back now,” Armand said urgently. Boyce replied, “I got it. You take it easy. I’ll call you if anything happens. I’ll go to Mrs. Bernie now.”
Armand said alright on the other end of the phone. Boyce hung up the phone and turned the car around, and steered for Armand’s house.
Loredana, who was walking along the roadside, saw Boyce’s car.
“That’s Boyce’s car.”
Cormac raised his head to look at the car, but the car had driven away from them.
Loredana frowned, “Why is he going out again? Is he not handling well the matter with Wendy?”
Cormac patted her on the back of her hand, “You’re always worrying for nothing.”
Loredana thought Wendy was not a simple woman. She was the one cheating in her marriage but told others that her husband cheated behind her. From this, Wendy had an impure motive. The intention of Wendy approaching Boyce was not simple.
Perhaps she thought that Boyce was a man of great promise, integrity, and single. Boyce was a perfect man.
Wendy definitely wanted to approach such a perfect man.
“Let’s go home,” Cormac put his arms around her waist, “Are you tired?”
Loredana said no.
They greeted the moonlight and walked home.
As soon as they entered the door, they heard a crying sound, and the living room was in a mess.
“What’s going on?” Loredana looked at her son who was standing in front of the sofa.
Andrew pointed at his sister who was still crying, “She wants to play Cat and Mouse but she cries when she loses.”
“You’re a nuisance.” Amanda wiped her tears, ran towards her daddy and mummy and complained, “He’s so annoying.”
Loredana looked at her speechlessly.
She was worried when Amanda got scared and didn’t speak for a long time before, but she turned into her old self again after she recovered.
“When will you turn not to be a telltale?”
Cormac Mendelsohn reached out his hand to stroke her head, “Admit your failure.”
Jasmine Burke gathered up the pillows and toys that had just been thrown everywhere.
Amanda thought that her father would bias her and reprimand her brother, but to her surprise, he didn’t favor himself, so she curled her lips and ran back to help Jasmine clean up the toys. “This child can’t be spoiled, if you spoil her, she might be crying again this time,” Loredana said to the man beside her.
Cormac turned his head to look at her, “You mean I’m spoiling her?”
Loredana said, “You know it yourself.”
After finishing her words, Jasmine walked over, “Leave it, let Coral clean it up.”
She stood up with her hands clutching the hem of her clothes nervously, “It’s okay, it isn’t tiring.”
Loredana smiled and said friendly, “You’re not used to it, right?”
Jasmine lowered her head, “It’s fine.”
Loredana could see that she was a bit nervous as she felt uncomfortable to live here. After all, she didn’t know anyone and hadn’t spent much time with them together.
“My two children are very rowdy.” Loredana spoke to her to lighten the atmosphere and also tried to get closer with her so that she would be less restrained.
She smiled and said, “They are very cute and smart.”
Loredana sat down on the sofa and asked her to sit as well.
“Let me help to tidy up.” She squatted in front of the toy basket and picked them up with Amanda.
The toys had been spilled when they played Cat and Mouse, and many small parts were rolled everywhere.
“When is Boyce Shawn coming back?” Amanda asked as she tilted her head and looked at Jasmine.
Boyce hadn’t called her and she hadn’t taken the initiative to contact him because she knew that he must be busy and had a lot of things to deal with when he returned. She couldn’t help him, the only thing she could do was not to cause him any trouble.
“I don’t know too.”
Amanda blinked, “Aren’t you his girlfriend? How come you don’t know his whereabouts?”
Jasmine found her amusing as she seemed to know a lot since she was a kid.
“Even if I’m his girlfriend, I can’t deprive him of his time, right? He has his own things to do.” Amanda couldn’t fully understand.
“There are so many things in adults’ world. Girlfriends are also changing one after another.” Soon her smile changed.
