When Serenity arrived at the magazine agency, she was half an hour late. By the time she walked into her office, everyone was already bustling away with their work.
As soon as she sat down and turned on the computer, Sam Kiln handed her the bag she had left at Golden Sands last night. He noticed that she was looking a little pale and asked, “Didn’t you rest well last night?”
Recalling how she had been tormented by a certain someone for half of last night, her cheeks burned slightly making her expression look a little unnatural. “A little.”
Sam Kiln was very curious about what had happened yesterday. Why did she suddenly leave? Not only did she not say anything to him before she did, but she also forgot to take her bag.
“Did you meet an acquaintance yesterday?”
She smiled and said, “I guess so.”
Sam Kiln leaned against her table with a cup of black coffee in his hand, continuing to tease her, “Could it be that you saw a handsome guy last night and couldn’t hold it in, so you went to have fun?”
Serenity rolled her eyes at him as she picked up a folder to hit him. He quickly avoided it, but the coffee in his hand spilled all over him. “Ugh, my clothes!”
Serenity burst into laughter when she saw his eyes staring at her with such grievance.
Sam Kiln became even angrier when he saw her smile. He grabbed a tissue from a colleague’s table and wiped the water stains on his clothes.
He was about to go to the gents to clean himself when he suddenly stopped after taking two steps. He turned around and said, “By the way, your phone rang non-stop last night. 1 thought it was too noisy so I turned it off.”
And that was when Serenity realized that she had not gone home last night and did not inform anyone either. Helena Turner must have been worried the entire night.
She took out her phone from her bag to turn it on. As soon as she did, she received a series of notifications, all of which were of missed calls from last night.
There were three missed calls from the Rivers residence, two from Selena, and more than twenty from John Grant. He had called almost every two to three minutes.
She never saved John’s phone number, but even if the world fell apart, she still remembered his number.
That sequence of numbers was imprinted in her mind just like he was in her heart.
She stared at the notifications and felt a slight prick in her heart. Would he still worry about her now?
Just as she was about to call the Rivers’ residence, her phone suddenly rang. The string of numbers displayed on the screen was familiar to her.
She never expected that the first call she received after disappearing for a night would be from John Grant. After hesitating for a moment, she picked up the call.
“Serenity Rivers!”
As soon as the call connected, she heard the man’s angry voice on the other end, saying her name coldly.
She held her phone and walked to the pantry. She found a quiet place and replied in a slightly hushed voice, “I’m here.”
“You didn’t go home last night. Where did you go?”
His voice was no longer as clear and magnetic as usual. It was mixed with faint anger and a few traces of coldness and sharpness.
Although they were separated by the phone, she could already imagine him glaring at her coldly.
Since Benjamin Rivers and Master Samson would not have cared so much, Helena Turner must have been extremely anxious and called the Grant family. That must be how he knew that she did not go back the entire night.
She wasn’t sure if he was worried or if it was something else, but what right did he have?
She suddenly let out a soft chuckle, almost in mockery of his concern. Her next words came out as if she spit them out in spite.
“Does it have anything to do with you where i go?”
