"Don't take it too hard. You don't have to connect with her."
Angela was stunned.
She had expected harsh words from him. In the end, he made such a remark.
"Jordy, I…"
"I still have unfinished business. When I'm free, I'll come to visit you. Go home and have a good rest."
Angela was petrified.
Her lips parted as she tried to say something. For fear of annoying Jordy, she said in a considerate way, "Okay, go ahead with your work. Take care and don't stress yourself out."
"I know."
There was a tinge of impatience in Jordy's magnetic voice.
Angela's face changed, but she said, "Gotta go."
Jordy hummed.
Angela took a breath and hung up the phone.
In the next instant, she glared at Martha and spluttered, "See? You shouldn't have asked me to call him! What are Dad and you planning?"
