Chapter 2441: Chapter 2450: Bobby Lies Without Blushing or Skipping a Beat
In Birch Garden, Enna Clark hadnât slept at all and was waiting for news from Baron Lawrence.
As soon as Bobbyâs call got through, she answered it in a second, and before the person on the other end had a chance to speak, she anxiously asked, "Baron Lawrence, have you found Bobby?"
The anxiety and worry in her voice were almost overflowing.
Bobby felt a pang of guilt, and his usually bold little face became much more reserved. He said softly, "Woman, itâs me."
This voice is...
Enna Clark gripped her phone tightly and unconsciously stood up, leaning towards the floor-to-ceiling windows, "Bobby?"
"Yes."
Bobby had a lot to say to her, wanted to tell her about the thrilling experiences he had that afternoon, wanted to share his heroic deeds, but all these words turned into a casual, "Woman, that dubious man said you were looking for me, what did you need me for?"
"Are you okay?" Over the phone, Enna couldnât see him, and she couldnât judge his condition from his voice alone. She frowned and tightened her grip on the phone, "Why did your phone turn off?"
Bobby was someone youâd call a child prodigy, with such high IQ and EQ that it was astonishing. Before he made this call to Enna Clark, he had already thought up a story. When Enna asked him, he lied without any panic, "I was helping Grandma monitor Granduncleâs blind date. I was at the next table, so I turned our phones off to avoid Granduncle and Uncle Harris noticing us."
He knew Enna Clark too well, and before she had a chance to doubt his words, he took the initiative, "Woman, why did you ask that dubious man to find me?"
"I... couldnât get through to your phone, so I was worried..."
"Worried about what?"
Bobby wasnât aware of the dark web incident, and Enna Clark couldnât possibly tell him about it.
She could only swallow all her worries, "Itâs nothing. Darling, come back soon, Iâll be waiting for you."
"Itâs better for a woman not to be too clingy, too clingy and the man might lose interest..." He chided earnestly.
Hearing his usual nagging voice, Enna finally felt a sense of reality. Starting when she couldnât reach him by phone, the uneasiness in her heart had finally lessened a bit. Her lips curled up, and her voice relaxed, "Youâre not a man. I donât need you to have interest in me. If you were interested in me, that would be scary."
If Bobby were interested in her, that would be incestuous.
"How am I not a man? A Phoenix is just a small chicken! Enna Clark, just wait, one day Iâll grow up!"
Bobby disliked it when others questioned his manliness. Naturally, he nearly jumped up, strongly protesting against Ennaâs âdisrespectfulâ remarks.
"Yes, yes, weâll talk when you grow up." Enna replied perfunctorily, immediately changing the subject, returning to the previous question, "When are you coming back?"
Bobby was so annoyed by her that his cool little face was about to stiffen, hands on his waist, he replied in a reluctant tone, "In a while. I need to inform Granduncle."
After speaking, he didnât forget to complain, "Woman, itâs all your fault. Originally, I was hiding perfectly, Granduncle hadnât noticed me at all. But you asked that dubious man to find me, and he showed no face, pulling me up from the back seat right away. I didnât even have a chance to hide, which got me discovered by Granduncle, and I hadnât even dealt with their blind date yet, now everythingâs exposed... In the War of Resistance era, this would be called enemy spy behavior..."
