"Give Ian the phone," Ramon said, then a moment later Ian's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Make sure you don't mess up this plan."
Ian groaned when he heard what Ramon said. Should he say it directly like that at a time like this? "I wouldn't be that stupid," Ian grumbled.
"I hope you are not stupid."
After saying that, Ramon hung up the phone, leaving Ian to curse the man in annoyance for not giving him a chance to get back at him.
As time went on, this man was becoming more and more annoying, but there was nothing Ian could do, because after all, he owed Ramon his life, as well as his younger sister.
