Eloise's POV:
I wasn't supposed to be the one calling Atticus, but no one was willing to contact him in this situation.
When he left with Page, his face was so dark that almost everyone here thought that he might refuse to continue working with us because of his emotional loss. But, after knowing that I had some history with him, everyone agreed to give me this terrible task.
Moon Goddess, why would they think this way?
I wanted to say that our relationship might be worse than they thought. I should not contact him anymore. However, after seeing their sincere expressions, I couldn't reject them, so I could only call him.
Just as I thought, he didn't pick up at first. I almost thought he didn't want to pick up my call.
However, just as I gave up, I heard him picking up. I dropped my phone in a panic because a long time ago, this would most likely mean that he would come to my residence to draw my blood.
"Why are you calling me?"
