My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1823

Beep... beep...

And then the call was cut off. He didn't pick up the phone.

Hendrix had always been a light-sleeper and he seldom let his calls go to voicemail. Something must have happened to him.

I held the phone for a few seconds, then I clicked into WhatsApp and started a video call with Evan.

After a while, Evan answered the call. Behind him was a bright coloured wall.

"Madam Reid, what's the matter?" Evan asked as he stared into the camera in a daze.

"Where is Hendrix?" I demanded.

"Mr. Roberts didn't tell me anything," he blurted out without thinking twice.

"Is that so?" I muttered. His answer was hardly believable. As a personal assistant, Hendrix wouldn't keep Evan in the dark about his whereabouts, especially if he was in the office just a few moments ago. I continued, "Well, I'm not looking for Hendrix, I'm looking for you. Where are you? I'll come to you."

Evan thought for a few seconds and said calmly, "I think I'll go to you instead, Madam." "Okay, come to Hendrix's office. I'll give you twenty minutes," I ordered.

After that, there was nothing left for him to say, so he promptly ended the call.

Sitting on Hendrix's office chair, I let my thoughts run. I recalled the conversation I had with Hendrix and how his reactions were.
