James coughed lightly and said unpleasantly, "Didn't I say it was a strange number?"
However, Lydia did not believe him, "Humph! You're lying, aren't you? Let me tell you, brat. I answer cold calls at least several times a month, so I'm quite experienced, okay? If you hang up cold calls directly, they won't call you again."
Elizabeth was staring at James with a pair of clear eyes, and Lydia was so aggressive. Seeing them like this, James was so irritated. Words couldn't describe how agitated he was.
After a long while, he said with annoyance, "Can't they work overtime?"
"Work overtime? But why did they call Elizabeth in a row?" Lydia continued to ask.
It was said that women were troublesome and difficult to deal with. James finally realized it!
He took a deep breath, "Can't they call her with different numbers?"
Lydia snorted, "I don't believe your words." It was so late at night. How could those sellers or fraudsters work so hard? Could they call Elizabeth for three times? Were the three of them all working for overtime pay?
James must be lying!
"I don't care whether you believe me or not." James shrugged his shoulders and was about to delete the call records of this number.
But before he could do that, the phone rang again.
James closed his eyes and felt extremely annoyed.
As soon as he hung up, Lydia teased him aside, "Oh, don't tell me that it's a phone call from another strange number."
Lydia turned to Elizabeth, "Someone must be looking for you."
Elizabeth had the same thought as her. After all, it was impossible for many sellers to call her at the same time, wasn't it?
However, who could it be?
After thinking for a while, Elizabeth looked at James, "Who on earth is it?"
James exhaled and said gloomily, "Didn't I tell you about it? It's a strange number! It's okay if you don't answer this kind of phone calls!"
As soon as he finished, the phone rang again, but it was a text message.
James swiped open the screen and looked down at the message, "Are you James, the narrow-minded man?"
James was so angry that he wanted to stamp his feet after seeing the message. Narrowminded man?
Hollysh*t! That person was lucky, because he was not right in front of James. Otherwise, James would definitely give him a lesson!
When James was thinking about how to reply to him in a simple and domineering way, Elizabeth said to him.
"Is it really another strange number?"
"Yeah." James replied. "If you don't believe me, I'll show it to you now." Humph, according to his understanding of Elizabeth, she would definitely say that she didn't want to see it because she believed him.
As he answered Elizabeth, he kept typing the message unobtrusively.
However, his confidence didn't last for even a few seconds. Elizabeth nodded and said, "Okay, give me my phone. Even if it is a strange number, this person has called me so many times in a row. What if this is someone who knows me? Maybe he has something to talk to me."
Well... if Elizabeth saw that, she would scold him, wouldn't she?
Alas! She swiped open the screen! She... paused!
James watched Elizabeth's every movement nervously like a child who had done something wrong. However, when he saw that Elizabeth's hand paused, he gradually felt relaxed and relieved.
Nice! Fortunately, she didn't intend to have a look.
Ha-ha! He could think of a way to take the phone again later, and then he could delete all the call records and messages. In this case, he wouldn't have any more worries, would he? He felt that even god was helping him!
"Elizabeth, who is it?" Lydia asked with curiosity, "Is it a strange number?"
After a long while, Elizabeth nodded gently, "Yeah." Then she looked at James with her eyes full of inquiries.
Being looked at by her, James's back shivered, but he didn't dare to say anything. He only coughed and turned his head aside.
According to her eyes, it seemed that she had known who the person was.
D*mn it! At this moment, he felt really awkward and ashamed!
"Jimmy, I misunderstood you." Lydia said to James with a smile, but there was really no guilt in her tone and expression. She stood up and said to Elizabeth, "Since it's really a strange number, listen to Jimmy and don't answer it. Just have a good rest. Come on. I'll charge it for you."
After that, she took Elizabeth's phone from her hand, "You'd better not use a phone very frequently, because the radiation of it will affect you."
As soon as she finished her words, the phone rang again...
