“Alright. Take your time, chief. Tell me the moment you come up with it. After all, it’s a big deal, and I know you can’t rush these things.”Collin was anxious, but he considered Bonnie’s circumstances and decided to comfort her a little.’Billy is smart. If Bonnie slips up even once, he’d surely catch it. Chief has to deal with such a crafty character and solve the incident with Ivor. She’s under a lot of pressure now.’That’s why I have to comfort her instead of giving her more pressure.'”Okay. I’m working on it,” she responded dryly and tried hard to figure out a solution.Suddenly, something popped into her mind and her eyes sparkled. “I’ve got it!”He asked at once, “What’s the plan?””Tell Toby to send word to Ivor that I’m busy now. I’ll call him when I’m free. Then, you’ll go to my room and retrieve my phone from the safe. Call Ivor and keep our line open. I’m going to talk to him through your phone.” She laid out the plan calmly. Ads by PubFuture
Collin smacked his thigh. “What a great idea, chief! After all, you’re the one who knows him best. He wouldn’t be satisfied unless he talked to you himself.””That’s exactly what I’m worried about. That’s why I need to talk to him directly.” She rubbed her brow. “I hope I can comfort him enough so he won’t fly back to Pyralis to look for me.”‘If this had happened earlier, Icould’ve taken the private planeback to Pyralis at the same time he did. The flight is just six hours, so could probably buy myself some time and make it back home just intime. UMS’But I’m in the enemy headquarters now. I can’t just leave as I please. The best thing I can do now is comfort or through the phone and dispel his suspicions for the time being. I’ll have to deal with the rest when I cross that bridge.’ Ads by PubFuture
Collin said, “You’re such a good talker, chief. I’m sure you can convince Ivor to call off the idea of checking on you.”Then he asked, “Would you be able to hear each other clearly if you had a conversation through my phone? I’m worried Ivor would find out something’s wrong when there’s some kind of feedback.””Have you forgotten? I modified bothof our phones. There won’t be any feedback, even if I talk to Ivorthrough your phone. If I was not sure this would work, I would not have suggested it. All you have to do isfoffow my lead.” She had run through several options in her head, but none of them suited her purpose. This was the only way she could hide the truth from Ivor.”If you put it that way, then I have every bit of confidence in your plan as well, chief.” He patted his chest. “I’m going to your room and retrieve your phone right now.””That’s not what you should do now.” She rubbed her brow helplessly at how anxious Collin seemed to be. “Didn’t you say Toby is waiting for your call? You have to call him back and tell him about it first.””Oh, you’re right. I was so worked up that I almost forgot about that guy.” He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. “I’m going to call him right now.””Okay. Remember, you have to let me know before you do anything. Don’t take matters into your own hands. I’m behind enemy lines, so it’s inconvenient for me to do anything. I have to make arrangements beforehand.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org.She might’ve relayed her orders calmly, but her tone was thick with helplessness.
