Chapter 649
Selena really missed Pierre so much.
"Are you crying? Why are you so emotional now?"
Selena sniffed and tried to keep herself calm. "Where are you?"
"It's a secret." Pierre couldn't tell her, as everything about his whereabouts had to be kept secret.
"Well, how are you doing?"
"Not bad. I just miss you." Pierre's voice was slightly teasing and frivolous, but Selena felt delighted.
"Are you tired?" Selena did not tell Pierre what happened today. Since he could not personally come over to protect her, it was better not to tell him.
"I'm fine. I've been eating and sleeping well, so don't worry."
Selena sighed. She missed him and had so much to tell him, but at this moment, she did not know how or where to start.
"The children are asleep. Should I wake them up to come talk to you?"
"Nevermind. Let them sleep. I just want to spend some time with you."
"Okay. They're all fine. Juniper is studying medicine from Dr. Werner, and she's doing very well. I caught a cold the other day and she gave me moxibustion therapy; I got better in no time." "You caught a cold?"
At this moment, Selena realized that she had spoken too much and let slip about her illness. "Yeah, but it wasn't serious."
"You must've been exhausted. I left too abruptly and did not set up a lot of things properly. I'm sure that has caused you a lot of trouble."This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
"What are you saying? All of this is my responsibility. I'm fine, so there's no need to worry about me. The children are also behaving well... When are you coming back?" Selena rubbed her nose. She had just finished speaking when some static came from Pierre's side. It seemed that the phone reception was not very good.
"Hey, Pierre, can you hear me?"
"What did you just say? The reception is not great on my side."
"I asked when are you coming back," Selena repeated.
"I might " Then came the sound of static again. The reception was very poor, so Selena did not hear his words clearly.
Then, she heard Pierre say, "I have something else to do, so I'll go and get busy first. Bye now."
Beep, beep...
Pierre hung up, while Selena held the phone in a loss. It took such a long time for him to call once, yet he surprisingly hung up after just two minutes. Sigh... I wonder when all of this will end. But at least she now knew that he was well. As long as he was safe, there was nothing more she needed.
At Diamond Hill Villa.
This was the place the Murray Family stayed in when they visited
Astoria. Now, it had become Meredith's residence. She had a cigarette in her hand and was on phone. "Trash! What a bunch of trash! They can't even fight a woman!"
Meredith paced back and forth while smoking a cigarette, simply furious. She had thought that by finding a
few burly men, she could give Selena a taste of being raped and show her how pathetic she was in the red-light district, but she didn't expect that the gang would not be able to get the job done. The failed move made her extremely frustrated.
As soon as she came to Digton City, she realized something. She didn't see Pierre around, and coupled with her understanding of him, she concluded that he was not in Digton City, Pierre wasn't here, no one would try to contact him, so this
a good opportunity to take a strike at
Selena.
It seems I need to think hard and not act so rashly now. Selena is a smart woman, so after this incident, she will definitely be more careful. Thus, I've got to do things slowly.
After calming down, Meredith took a long drag on her cigarette before making an international phone call. It took a long time for the phone to be answered.
"I've told you not to call me like this." Linda's voice seemed a little agitated because she didn't want the Murray Family to know a single thing.
