Now I understood why he was angry that day. He could not reach me when he called me and I was not replying to his messages. He must have been riddled with anxiety.
I sighed softly, then looked at Theo and said, "Next time, don’t keep calling me if I'm not picking up my calls. I might just not be looking at my phone, or my phone might be on silent mode. If I'm in any danger, you'll be the first person I call.”
Theo snorted lightly. "Why must I follow everything you say? I'll just tell you now, don't ever turn off your phone or put it on silent mode. If you do, I won't be as nice as I was the last time."
I giggled. To be honest, I liked it when he cared about me.
The phone vibrated, and I looked down at it. Shannon had messaged me.
Shannon: [Are you still in Limbia, Wanda? Jordan also left for Limbia yesterday.
Please help me keep an eye on him. If he tries to pick up other women, let me know. I’ll fly over immediately and annihilate him.]
I could not help but laugh and send an 'OK' emoji. Then, I added: [Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him.]
However, how would I know which part of Lambia he was headed to?
When Theo saw me smiling at my phone, he asked in suspicion, "Why are you so happy?”
"Shannon sent me a message. She said that Jordan is coming to Limbia too, so she asked me to keep an eye on him. If he tries to flirt with any girls, she'll fly over immediately and destroy him."
Theo's eyes narrowed, and he slammed his foot on the brakes. "You said Jordan is coming to Limbia too? When?"
Seeing his darkened expression, I stuttered and said, "Shannon said yesterday."
Theo furrowed his brows and turned the car around
I did not know what was happening and asked somewhat uneasily, "What’s the matter? Is something wrong?”
Bang!
There was a muffled sound. I still did not realize what was happening. A gloomy expression appeared on Theo's face as he said, "Make sure your seatbelt is on properly."
