Should I answer it?
Zoe Yale bit her lips, hesitated for a long time, and then picked up the telephone.
"Molly..." Charles White's magnetic voice, with a trace of tenderness, came from the other end of the phone.
"..." Zoe Yale's heart instantly tightened.
She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment, wanting to hang up the phone, but then she thought of Charles White saying his mom was ill, and her heart softened a bit.
"Molly, say something to me. Even if you want to reject me, tell me in person, don't avoid me, it makes me sad." Charles White faintly opened his lips, his voice sounding desolate.
This vulnerable side of him was completely different from the person Zoe Yale had in her memories.
Charles White had always been smart, forceful, and full of mystery.
No one knew what he could or could not do, only that he wasn't an ordinary person, he could appear at any time, and leave at any time, like someone who didn't belong here.
