Chapter 1084: I Miss You So, So Much (7)

The ringtone rang for a while before the call was connected.

William’s voice was unclear, and hoarse, sounding as though he hadn’t woken up yet.

Mu Xiaoxiao was puzzled. Shouldn’t it be noon in America at this time? Why was he still sleeping?

“William, it’s me, Xiaoxiao. Is it convenient to talk now?” she asked.

“Xiaoxiao? What’s up?” William’s voice had a heavy nasally sound. He seemed to be talking to someone else in a soft voice.

Mu Xiaoxiao heard another male voice.

“You’re still at it? Stop leaning over here. Go away!”

William’s voice seemed a little unpleasant. There were noises of bodies slapping together. People not in the know might even think that there might be some fighting going on.

Mu Xiaoxiao almost immediately realized who he was with. She coughed awkwardly, put the cell phone further from her ear as she didn’t want to eavesdrop on their ‘restricted’ conversation.

Yin Shaojie and Han Qiqing watched her behavior with a puzzled look.

After a while, William seemed to be done with his situation. His voice was clearer. As he drank water, he talked to Mu Xiaoxiao, “I’m okay now. What’s up?”

Mu Xiaoxiao asked him directly. “You should know about Annie returning to America, right? Did you send someone to get her?”

William was silent for a moment, and he said bluntly, “It wasn’t me. But I know a little about her returning to America.”

Mu Xiaoxiao was puzzled. “Who was the one who took her? She went in such a rush that we didn’t even have the time to say goodbye.”

William said, “Chris. Besides me, only Chris would bring her back to America.”

Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned, and she quickly asked, “Who is Chris?”

She seemed to have heard this name from somewhere before.

Had Annie mentioned it to her before?

“He’s Annie’s fiancé, don’t you know?” William laughed.

Hearing that, Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a while. Then she exclaimed, “What? Annie’s fiancé? Annie… When did she get engaged? Why didn’t you tell me?”

“They are not officially engaged yet, but they will be very soon. Xiaoxiao, do you want to come over?” William asked her. From his tone, he seemed quite pleased with her sister’s soon-to-be fiancé.

Knowing him for so many years, Mu Xiaoxiao knew how much William cared for his sister, Annie.

If he felt so at ease giving her sister to that man, it must mean that Chris was a remarkable person.

Mu Xiaoxiao was worried for Ye Sijue.

Mu Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, nodded, and said, “Yeah, I’m going.”

William replied, “Okay, then. Let me know when you have booked a flight so that I can make the arrangements.”

“Alright, see you then.”

Just then, another man’s voice was heard over the phone. In a thick, deep, and bossy voice, he said, “Alright, no more chatting.”

Before Mu Xiaoxiao could react to it, the call was disconnected.

She was left staring blankly at her cell phone.

A question floated in her mind: “If Xiaomeng is going to be engaged, then what about Ye Sijue?”

Meanwhile, in America.

Ye Sijue wore his suit. With a tie in his hand, the doorbell rang just as he was about to tie it.

He went over to the door, looked through the peephole, and opened the door.

The person who came in was Tian Yunxin.

She looked around the presidential suite and was stunned. The suite was heaven compared to the suite that had been arranged for her.
