The word 'son' strucklike a hammer.
| immediately gave Sara a call. At first, she did not answer it, so | called again.
However, she still did not pick up the call. When | called the third time, she finally answered it.
"What were you trying to say in that message, Lara?"

"You're already givinga call, aren't you, Mrs. Grant? Why are you still askingthis question? The meaning
of my message is literal. If you understand it, then great; if not, then fine. You'll bear all the consequences in the
end anyway."
She hung up the call after saying that. | was anxious and confused at the stime. | called her again. | had
already lost all my patience this time.
"You'd better explain it toclearly right now."
Theo might have heard movements, so he appeared at the door of the ward with confusion. | did not look at him
and stared straight ahead.
On the phone, Sara sneered. "Sure, I'll explain it to you clearly. Let's meet up. I'll send you an address. See you in

When Theo saw that | was going on, he stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Who called you?"

Munchkin."
Theo heard what | said and picked up my phone to take a look at the message on the screen. "I'll cwith

It was only Sara. She was not that hard to deal with.

"You calone?" | felt that something was not right.
"Why? Isn't this what you were hoping for?" Sara's answer tookby surprise, but | had no strength left to
delve into the reasons for now.
"What were you trying to say in the text message you sent me?"
Sara lazily replied, "I meant it literally. | don't understand which part confuses you."
| frowned. "I don't like to play guessing games. If you can clarify it now, then I'll consider not calling the cops."
My words sent Sara cackling as she sat across from me. "Call the police? Why do you want to call the police? It's
clearly a self-directed by you and you want to call the police to arrest me? Do you think the police are
idiots?"
Theo and | were dumbfounded. Theo leaned forward and stared at Sara. "What do you mean by self-directed

Sara put down her coffee cup and leaned sideways on her chair. "I find the two of you really interesting. Why do «
