Finally, the long-awaited phone call came! Nancy saw the incoming call from David. Although it was expected, the wait had been far too long, making the moment it arrived especially thrilling.
Nancy picked up the phone right away: "Long time no see."
What a clichéd thing to say, and so inappropriate since David was calling rather than meeting Nancy. Nonetheless, Nancy had wanted to say it anyway, as the song "Long Time No See" kept playing in her head.
David was baffled to hear this. Wasn't Nancy taking this seriously? He had not called just to chitchat.
"Why did you do it? What would you gain from framing me with Aria Grant?" David was full of bewilderment as he asked.
Of course, David didn't know the answer, because to Nancy, simply receiving David's call was already a massive reward. David's voice had haunted Nancy's dreams, and Nancy had been eagerly waiting for a real response like this.
