Franck was thrown to the ground, and all her bones seemed to fall apart. She was in great pain. She half supported her body as she watched Kristin Hug Catherine and leave, leaving her a cold and heartless back view.
..
After settling down in the hotel, Kristin hurried to the National Security Bureau.
Catherine was watching TV alone in the suite, changing the channel in boredom. At this time, her phone suddenly rang.
Her previous phone had long disappeared. After she was discharged from the hospital, Christine asked for her number back and changed to a new phone.
Only Christine’s number was saved in the card. Now that there was an unfamiliar call, she did not know if she should answer it.
After hesitating for a moment, she pressed the answer button —
“Catherine, are you okay?”A male voice sounded with a hint of relief.
The voice was somewhat familiar, but he could not recall it for a moment. Catherine was silent. There was no need for her to speak. Even if she did, the other party would not hear her.
“Catherine? Are You Listening? This is Xiao Wei… I heard that something happened to you. I’ve been trying to call you, but I couldn’t get through. Today, when I saw Christine return to the station, I guessed that you should be back as well,”he said to himself, as if afraid that she would misunderstand, Xiao Wei explained the reason for this call.
“Beep Beep Beep…”just as he finished speaking, a busy tone came from his phone.
Looking at the phone that had been hung up, his expression was gloomy.
He was so sad that he was about to put his phone into his pocket when a text message came —
“For some reason, I can’t speak for the time being. I’m fine, thank you.”
The cold and distant text message made Xiao Wei overjoyed. Even though there wasn’t much warmth between the lines, his heart was still happy!
Suddenly, his smile froze. What happened to her throat? Why couldn’t she speak?
Was this still considered good?
The worry and anxiety in his heart made him want to know if her current situation was good or not. Xiao Wei’s fingers moved quickly on his phone as he typed a text message —
“Can we meet? Let’s have a meal together.”
After sending the text message, Xiao Wei held his phone and waited anxiously. He had never felt so nervous before.
After a long while, his phone vibrated. The text message was sent with only one short word —
“Okay.”
Xiao Wei was delighted. He immediately called the restaurant to get a location and quickly sent the address to Catherine.
..
A high-end Western restaurant.
In order to cater to Catherine’s western eating habits, Xiao Wei specially booked an authentic English Western restaurant.
When Catherine arrived, she immediately saw Xiao Wei walking towards her. He was dressed in a black suit and a white shirt, but the sunshine and vitality could not be concealed.
He was like the rising sun, warm, warm, and sunny.
Because he knew that she could not speak and was worried that the waiter would ask if she had made a reservation, Xiao Wei deliberately changed his seat and chose a seat by the window.
When she appeared resolutely, he saw her and quickly walked up to her.
“Catherine, you’re here!”His heart was filled with excitement, but he did not dare to show too much emotion on his face. He was afraid that he would burden her mentally.
Catherine nodded. Maybe it was because she had a good impression of Xiao Wei after the last talk on the rooftop.
Maybe it was because they had never been colleagues before.
He led her to her seat. Xiao Wei pulled out the chair for her in a gentlemanly manner. After she sat down, he turned around and sat down.
The waiter brought the menu. Catherine looked at the menu. Xiao Wei’s eyes were fixed on the place where she was looking.
