Matthew's personal phone suddenly rang at this hour. He was resting his eyes, and they popped open at the sound. He picked up his phone and saw that the call was from an unfamiliar number. He frowned. This was his personal number, and not many people had it.

Telemarketers would not be calling him on this phone. Who could it be? He picked it up and held back the annoyance from his tone. "Hello, this is Matthew Leon speaking." When Lucy heard his voice from the other end of the call, she suddenly felt safe but also a little strange. They had just separated, but why did Matthew sound so tired? He even sounded a little hoarse.

She said worriedly, "Are you alright, Matthew? Why do you sound so hoarse?" Matthew's eyes slit up when he heard Lucy's voice. It was his wifey! He looked at his phone again. The number was unfamiliar, and it suddenly hit him that Cillian had probably changed Lucy's number after they arrived at Charleston. He put the phone back to his ear.

"Nothing's wrong with me. Don't worry, wifey! Have you been alright these few days?" Matthew listened greedily to her voice from the other end of the phone. It had been a long tsince he last saw Lucy.

Even though Mattew claimed to be fine and asked about Lucy, she was not about to let her question slip by without an answer.

She rolled her eyes speechlessly when she heard Matthew attempt to perk up his tone despite still sounding hoarse. She suddenly remembered that she and Matthew were in different locations. There was a tdifference between them. Lucy began calculating what tit was over where he was.

Lucy asked with slight exasperation, "Are you still working, Matthew?" Matthew did not notice anything wrong with the questioning. He blinked and answered, "Yes, I am. I'll be done once I'm done with this document." He started to lie without batting an eyelid, "I'll have dinner immediately after this. Don't worry, wifey." Lucy's face fell immediately. What did he mean by he was still working? Judging by her calculations, it should be about midnight where Matthew was. Why was he still working on the last document and having dinner only after that? Did he miss dinner because of work? "Matthew Leon, you're burning the midnight oil and you haven't had dinner yet." A chill went down Matthew's spine.

How did Lucy know that? He looked outside the window and realized that it was dark out. He put his hand to his head in exasperation. How could he have made such a mistake? He knew that there was a tdifference between their locations, but he still managed to anger Lucy.

Matthew shook his head helplessly. He decided to apologize to Lucy immediately.

He would suffer a huge loss if he made Lucy angry.

Matthew apologized pitifully, "I'm so sorry. I really have been quite busy recently." Lucy sighed helplessly when she heard Matthew's hoarse voice.

"You should take care of your health better. Go to bed right nowRemember to make yourself a glass of warm milk before going to bed."

It warmed Matthew's heart to hear that, but he did not want to goton I want sleep right now. He wanted to hear more of Lucy's voice. He said, "I don't want to go to sleep now, wifey. I want to listen to your voice."

Lucy blushed furiously when she heard that and did not know how to react. "But it won't do for you not to En.

go to sleep." X
