Chapter 608
If the Murrays found out that Rosalie had sent Bianca her phone, she would have an even more difficult time in the future.
Bianca imagined Rosalie at the Murrays', being tortured by an old, evil woman and getting pricked by needles.
Bianca pulled down the zipper of her down jacket and took out a black phone from the pocket inside. "Here. You can make a call!"
"Thank you, Bianca. You're the best!" Wanda kissed her happily.
Bianca grinned.
Wanda could not remember Christine's number, but she did remember the number of the office landline.
She called, but no one answered.
That was when she realized that it was already midnight.
Wanda hung up and sighed, saying, "It's too late now. I'll call tomorrow."
Just as she finished speaking, the phone rang.
It was the company landline.
Wanda answered the call at once. "Hello?"
"Hello, this is SwiftFu" Christine's sleepy voice came over the phone, but she broke off mid-sentence and suddenly sounded alert as she said, "A-are you Wanda?"
"Yes, it's me," Wanda answered gently.
"Where are you, Wanda? Are you alright?" Christine sounded emotional.
She went to class during the day and came to work the night shift at the office. When she was tired, she slept at the office because she was too afraid of missing a call from any of their clients.
Swiftfunds Investments prided itself on always answering in a timely manner.
Wanda answered, "I'm alright. Christine, tell me about Carlisle."
"Alright." Christine began telling Wanda about her romantic history with Carlisle.
The call lasted for two hours.
Bianca curled up in the blankets and fell asleep before the call ended.
Wanda, however, felt more and more alert the more she heard.
Suddenly, there was a beeping noise as the call ended.
Wanda glanced at it and saw the phone battery was still half full.
She wanted to call again, but since it was already 2:00 am, she decided not to.
She put the phone back into Bianca's pocket and snuggled into the blankets with Bianca to keep warm.
Bianca was jolted awake by how cold Wanda's hands were.
She glared at her sleepily and said, "Don't touch me! You're freezing!"
"Don't be so petty! I'll warm the bed for you tomorrow!"
"You said it! You're not allowed to go back on your word tomorrow."
"If I do, then I'm less than a dog!"
The next day, Wanda was woken by the sound of Bianca sobbing.
"Wanda... You made a 150-minute long-distance call last night..."
"Bianca, stop being so noisy. I want to sleep for a while more.." Wanda wasn't fully awake yet, and her soft, whiny voice almost made Bianca relent.
"Sleep? How can you sleep right now?" Bianca reached her cold hands inside Wanda's nightdress.
"Aargh!" Wanda was wide awake at once. She shielded her chest with her arms and rolled over.
Bianca chortled. "You're so soft and slippery! Let me touch you again!"
Wanda immediately pulled the blankets tightly around herself. "Bianca, stop playing around!"
Bianca pouted and sat on the edge of the bed. "Hmph, you've got my phone line barred! You should let me do whatever I want!"Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"It's been barred?"
"It costs a dollar a minute for long-distance calls! What did you think was going to happen?"
