Chapter 1252
âWhat do you want me to say?â Comella asked
âWhatever you want.â Ben said.
âBut I donât wanna talk anymore, Iâm beat Ben, youâre a good guy, you helped me a lot when I first started working I appreciate that. If we donât get a chance to work together
again, then see ya Cornelia said.
After saying this, Comelia wanted to hang up, but Ben stopped her, âCornelia, donât hang up, I have a lot to say to youâ
He was getting frantic.
âWhat is it?â Comelia was puzzled.
âLâ Ben, usually a smooth talker, was now stuttering at the crucial moment.
âIf you donât have anything to say Iâm gonna hang upâ Cornelia was fed up
âComelia, I like youâ Ben said.
To stop Comelia from hanging up, Ben had to throw caution to the wind. He didnât care anymore, as long as he could hear Corneliaâs voice.
Comelia responded coldly. âOh, I donât like you.â
âThen just chat with me a bit more. I want to hear your voice.â Ben felt goosebumps all over.
Cornelia frowned in displeasure, âBen, you are acting really weird.â
Ben was stuttering more and more, âI, I justâ¦â
âIâm hanging up. We better not contact each other again if thereâs nothing important.â Cornelia said.
Cornelia hung up directly.
She was thirsty from all the talking and wanted to drink water, but in her daze, she drank the wine in her glass instead. She coughed violently because she drank too quickly After finally stopping, Cornelia randomly pressed keys on her phone, âJeremy, I choked, and you wouldnât even get me a glass of water?â
Hannah handed Cornelia a glass of water, âYouâve already hung up. No one can hear you yelling at your phone. If you still care about President Hartley and have things to say, call him, or meet him for a serious talk.â
Cornelia blinked and tried to open her eyes wide to look at Hannah, âWho are you? Oh, I remember, youâre Hannah, my good friend.â
Hannah nodded, âYep, Iâm your good friendâ
âHave you seen Jeremy?â Cornelia looked around, even lifted the tablecloth to check underneath, âWhereâs Jeremy?â
Cornelia was running around in circles anxiously, âHannah, Jeremy was just here, where did he suddenly disappear to? Jeremy, Jeremy, stop hiding, come out.â Cornelia felt danger coming, her heart started to hurt. She was panting for breath, her heart felt like it would explode at any moment.
