"Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off!" A mechanical female voice came from the receiver, making Ling Chuchu's heart suddenly freeze.
She dialed a few more times without giving up, but the shutdown prompt was still there. At this moment, her hand holding the phone was trembling. If she couldn't find her mother as soon as possible, her grandma might die!
Ling Chuchu forced herself to calm down. She bit her lips and dialed a landline number with trembling fingertips!
"Hello, hello, this is the Xia family, who are you looking for?"
"Hello, I would like to ask, is Mrs. Xia here?" Ling Chuchu spoke with difficulty, her voice trembling bitterly. No one can imagine the terrible feeling when calling one's mother someone else's wife.
"My wife is not at home. Who are you? If it is convenient, please leave a phone number. I will inform her when she comes back!"
"Then where has she gone? I really have something urgent to look for her. I can't get through to her cell phone. When will she be back?"
She can wait, but grandma’s illness cannot wait!
"My wife and young lady went abroad for shopping. They left at noon today. It may take two or three days to come back!"
"What? Going abroad?" Ling Chuchu suddenly felt like she was struck by lightning. When her grandmother was in a life-or-death situation and needed her to save her life, she actually took someone else's daughter abroad to buy things!
"What's the matter with you? If you have anything, please leave a message. If nothing else, I still have something to do!"
The other party was obviously a little impatient. Ling Chuchu was trembling all over and tears were falling down, but she couldn't say a word. She felt so painful in her heart that it almost made her die!
Five hundred thousand, for the hostess of the Xia Group, Mrs. Xia, is just a drop in the bucket. A brand-name bag she uses may cost more than this amount, but for her, Ling Chuchu, it is an astronomical figure. Where is she going to get it?
The money!
"Hey, hey, talk!"
"Sister-in-law Zhang, what's the matter?" Xia Yaoxi came down from upstairs and frowned at the servant who answered the phone in the living room and asked.
"Master, someone came to see my wife and said it was urgent. I told them that my wife had gone abroad, but she stopped talking!" Mrs. Zhang answered truthfully with the microphone.
"Leave it to me, go and do your work!" Xia Yaoxi took the phone. Originally, he would not care about these things, but for some reason, he unexpectedly answered the phone today.
"Hello, hello, I'm Xia Yaoxi, are you still here?" His voice was gentle, with a hint of morbid weakness, which made people feel comfortable.
Hearing his voice, Ling Chuchu suddenly woke up. She quickly hung up the phone and hurriedly wiped the tears from her face. She knew she couldn't let the Xia family know her existence!
