Her premonition was confirmed the moment the voice on the other end of the line spoke—
"Miss Thorne, hello. Can you recognize my voice?"
Leo Morgan.
Summer Thorne took a quiet, deep breath before slowly speaking. "How could I possibly forget a man like you, Mr. Morgan?"
Hearing the name "Mr. Morgan," Louis Sutton visibly relaxed and stopped paying attention to the call.
Leo Morgan chuckled. "I hope you don't find this call too abrupt. It's about that painting you mentioned yesterday. If you really want it, I might be able to help you figure something out. What do you say?"
"I thought you already gave it away, Mr. Morgan?" Summer Thorne said calmly. "What could you possibly do?"
"Would you be interested in meeting up to discuss it?" Leo Morgan said. "If you haven't eaten yet, I'll treat you."
Summer Thorne fell silent for a moment upon hearing his offer. Finally, she agreed, "Alright. See you soon."
