Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap-Chapter 564: I Won’t Disturb Him from Doing Serious Work
Sophia Wood had things to discuss with Michael Linton that had nothing to do with Easton Holmes and Lily Turner getting married, and she couldn’t discuss them with anyone else.
"It’s just some details. I think it would be more convenient to discuss them with his uncle, especially since we talked about it last night." She refused Old Master Linton, but her refusal was well justified.
"But his uncle isn’t home now; he won’t be back until evening." Callix Linton sensed that Sophia only wanted to discuss it with Michael Linton, but he didn’t insist on her talking to him. He just truthfully stated the current situation.
Upon hearing that Michael Linton wouldn’t be back until evening, Sophia’s face immediately dropped, and a trace of urgency flashed in her eyes. "Could you give me his phone number? I’ll contact him at noon."
Because the matter was urgent, she couldn’t be concerned about what the other three might think and directly asked Old Master Linton for Michael’s phone number.
Even soldiers should have a break at noon. They can’t be busy all day, can they?
What exactly needs to be discussed? Why is there such a rush? Why can’t it wait until the evening?
A series of big question marks formed in Callix Linton’s mind, but he didn’t voice these questions. Instead, he cooperatively gave Sophia Michael’s phone number.
"Easton’s uncle has been a bit busy these days and only has half an hour of rest after noon." The old man not only gave her his son’s phone number but also specified his son’s exact break time.
He did this only because he didn’t want his son’s military duties to be disrupted; if it weren’t for his grandson’s significant life matters, he would never have given out his son’s phone number.
"I won’t disturb his important work."
The old man’s meaning was very clear, and it was hard for Sophia not to notice. Seeing this, she responded with unmistakable displeasure.
Callix noticed Sophia’s displeasure, but he pretended not to. He turned to Lily Turner, who hadn’t said a word, "Girl! Your mother and sister have seldom come to our house, have a good chat with them, and I’ll go see how lunch is coming along." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Saying that, Old Master Linton got up from the sofa.
"Mm!"
Lily knew that Old Master Linton was giving her a chance to talk privately with Sophia and Alice Turner, so she nodded in agreement.
After receiving her response, Old Master Linton strode out of the living room, leaving shortly after.
Seeing Callix walk away, Alice suddenly moved closer to Lily with a face full of envy, "Lily! Easton’s grandpa is really good to you."
Though these words seemed to be directed at her sister, they were actually intended for their mother sitting nearby.
Just now, she noticed that both Easton and his grandpa genuinely cared for her sister.
What was their mother still hesitant about? Why did she keep opposing?
"Alice! Let’s go!"
But Sophia pretended not to notice, refusing even to look at Lily. She got up and walked out of the living room, calling Alice to leave with her.
Seeing this, Alice sighed and rubbed her forehead, whispering to Lily, "I’ll head out first, but I’ll find you to chat another day."
She gave her sister’s hand a comforting squeeze before quickly getting up and following after their mother.
