Linda frowned hard in silence.
Rose’s instincts told her that something was off. “Are you lying?”
“I said I didn’t do it. It was not me. But I am aware of the matter.”
Rose was even more puzzled. “What are you talking about? Can you explain it to me clearly? Are you
trying to make me die from anxiety?”
Linda pursed her lips. She seemed unwilling to reveal what was going on.
Rose knew her daughter well. So she lowered her voice and said, “I’m your mother. Do you plan to hide
from me? Did you meet someone or happen to land into any trouble? You have to tell me everything.
What if this is all a trap set by Elisa?”
Linda’s eyes flickered. After a moment of hesitation, she finally told Rose everything.
…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRose had something else to do, so she left early.
Linda was alone in her room. She was browsing through Twitter that day and found posts about Elisa.
She was furious to see Elisa doing so well when she, on the other hand, was in the dumps. She was
highly infuriated!
Just then, her phone rang. It was an unknown number.
She did not want to answer it.
So she rejected the call.
She did not feel like answering a stranger’s call. Moreover, she was not well. People would understand
if she did not take any calls.
But… Her phone rang once more.
It was the same number. Linda frowned and rejected it again. She was slightly irritated now.
But… This was the third time this number was calling her. It seemed urgent.
Although she was depressed, she could still answer calls, so she picked it up.
“Who are you?” Linda’s tone was unfriendly. She looked hostile too. She had always ignored strangers,
but since this person had called her thrice, Linda thought it must be important.
“You hate Elisa Benett, don’t you?” A childish voice sounded from the other end of the phone. It
sounded like it was from a voice changer.
Linda frowned hard. She did not expect this. But before she could say anything, the voice continued, “I
know you do not trust me, but I hope you’ll listen to me.”
Linda frowned even harder. She replied immediately. “I do not want to listen to anything you say. I’m
not in the right state now. Please stop calling me.”
How was she supposed to trust someone who would not call her using their own voice? Furthermore,
she knew nothing about this person.
Besides, this person must have come to her to use her. But she was ruined now. There was nothing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe could do for them.
But she was puzzled. Did Elisa still have other enemies?
Could it be…
Nicole Tabor?
Linda frowned hard. Did Nicole plan to use her to hurt Elisa?
However, before she managed to end the call, the voice spoke again, “Forgive me for being straight,
but I know everything about your family. I know how you killed Elisa’s father, took away Benett
Corporation, made Elisa divorce, and everything you did to her recently. I know everything. Oh, and
you are not sick at all. I have evidence. Do you believe me?”
Linda’s heart skipped a beat. Her face turned extremely ugly as she responded, “I’m not sick! I’m
confined here and cannot escape. I’m already in a bad mood. Why are you still doing this to me?
Moreover, what happened in the past has nothing to do with us. Please stop framing us!
