Sasha leaned against the hallway wall to take the call.
“What is it?”
Lester’s tone was a tad playful. “Nothing much, just that it’s been a while since I’ve seen. you, and I
kind of miss you.”
“Where are you?” Lester seemed to hear an echo from Sasha’s end.
Sasha didn’t intend to hide it, so she replied, “At the hospital.”
“The hospital? What happened to you?”
“Nothing serious, a friend fell ill and was admitted, so I’m here to visit.”
“Which hospital? I’ll cto you!”
Sasha immediately refused. “No! There’s no need for you to come!”
Lester becsuspicious. “Why won’t you letcto find you? Is this friend someone special?”
‘Special indeed, my ex-husband, bet you didn’t see that coming! Sasha thought.
But she chose not to disclose this to Lester. Knowing that Lester had feelings for her, she couldn’t

Most importantly, Lester had said he’d start treating her more like a sister, and stirring him up now

“Don’t you know your own reputation?” Sasha teased. “I’m afraid if you cover, you might spell

Hearing this, Lester wasn’t in a hurry anymore and even chuckled.
“You don’t trustthat much?” Lester asked.

Lester, who was initially quite pleased, deflated at that comment.
“What sister-in-law? Stop talking nonsense, I’m not done playing the field yet.”
Sasha sighed with relief, and told him. “You can’t be carefree forever, it’s tto get
serious.
Lester fell silent on the other end.
Sasha, realizing belatedly that she might have hurt his feelings, felt a bit awkward and quickly
apologized. “I’m sorry…
But Lester let out a sigh of relief. “Fool, what are you apologizing for?”
“It’s not what I meant.” She felt a twinge in her heart, truly not intending to hurt Lester, but love couldn’t
be forced.
Lester laughed. “I know, don’t worry, I won’t overthink it.”
Still, Sasha felt uncomfortable.
The conversation had taken a turn, and she now felt like the villain.
Sensing her guilt, Lester chuckled helplessly. “Alright, since you’re at the hospital, I won’t distract you
from spending twith your friend. We can hang out when you get back.”

“Sure.” Sasha agreed without hesitation. “I’ll make it up to you.”

Sasha breathed a sigh of relief, turned to go back to the sickroom, but saw Jameson standing at the
door, looking at her with a particularly complex gaze.
“You startled me, how did you get here?”
Jameson didn’t answer her question, but instead asked. “What exactly is your relationship with Lester?”
Sasha frowned. “What do you mean? Don’t you know we’re together?”

Then, realizing something, she heard Jameson say, “You’re lying. I heard everything jus now. You said
you’re not his real girlfriend and advised him to stop his carefree ways.”
Sasha suddenly stood up straight, casting a cold glance at Jameson.
“You eavesdropped on my call?” Sasha was angry, her gaze at Jameson dark and stormy.
