"Hello?" Charlton said, his voice a bit husky from just waking up.
Serena furrowed her brows. Why was his voice like that? Did he just wake up? Or did he engage in some activity with another woman thus his voice was husky? Why did he not answer her call the first time?
"Hello?" Charlton repeated when he did not hear Edward speak.
"Charlton. It's me." Serena finally said.
Charlton was suddenly more alert and awake. He was happy she called, but then, he remembered what happened and he again felt ashamed of himself. Not knowing what to say, there was a moment of silence between them.
"Charlton?" Serena asked. Why was he not answering? What if he doesn't want to talk to her anymore? What if he knew what she did last night? No. She just did what she needed to do. She did nothing wrong. But what about Charlton? Maybe he was seeing that woman behind her back.
