Chapter 154 Without Saying Goodbye
I was flustered when I saw his name, I wasn’t going to pick it up, but my finger slipped and I hit the answer
button.
“What took you so long?”
I rolled my eyes at his commanding tone.
Getting no answer, he asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Nothing…”
“You don’t sound happy hearing my voice,” he said.
“Should I be happy?” I asked. Happy that he finally thought of me? Come on.
He said, dissatisfied. “I haven’t heard from you. Don’t tell me you didn’t know I was back
“Hey, did you check your phone? Don’t assume it’s my fault, alright? Also, why should I keep calling you?
People gossip about divorced women all the time. You should stay away from me, shouldn’t you?”
I caught myself sounding upset because he hadn’t called me. Just as I wanted to explain, he hung up.
What the hell was wrong with this man? Why did he have to hang up on me all the time?
I nearly threw my phone away. How could he not even say goodbye?
Two days later, Ryan returned to the office. I almost couldn’t recognize him. He had grown a scruffy
beard and looked sunburnt.
“Ryan, you look awful!” I felt sorry for him, as I could easily imagine the hardships he had gone through.
Hearing my concerned voice, he froze a bit but soon recovered.
