Chapter 895 He said a few words before handing the phone to me, saying, "Theo called." I pursed my lips and glanced at him. I chose not to take it.
He paused for a moment before withdrawing his hand and speaking into the phone, "Talk later." Unsure what was said on the other end, Mason hummed a reply before hanging up the phone. Silence returned to the car, and it was a silence that was makingeven more flustered.
The car pulled up in front of a row of houses, and a few servants cout.
Mason got out of the car, and a servant walked over to greet him. "Mr. Mason." Mason nodded and looked at me, saying, "Let's talk inside." He then ordered his servant, "Prepare a room for Ms. Lane."

As Mason was the one who lost Munchkin, I found every member of the Lynch family distasteful.
I was in no mood to entertain the woman and retracted my gaze from om her face. I looked at Mason, saying, O "Mason Lynch, you'd better pray that Munchkin is okay or I'll make you and everybody in the Lynch family pay." Smack! A cup was placed heavily on the coffee table, creating a loud noise.
"You're quite a big talker, aren't you, young lady?!" The old man sitting in the center spoke.
I looked at the imposing old man, who looked to be in his 80s, yet had bright eyes and a powerful aura. At a single glance, anyone could tell that he was a reigning figure when he was young.
