Joanna Lawrence picked up the phone, and Aria Rowlett's laughing voice came through shortly after, "Baby, are you with Jeremy now? I just tried to call him, but he didn't answer. Tell him I'm out of the country, so I won't be able to attend his birthday party. I'll give him his birthday gift when I return."
Just as Joanna was about to speak, another voice rang out from the phone.
It was a man's voice.
"Watch out, look where you're going."
Upon hearing this voice, Joanna hesitated for a moment and then exclaimed in surprise, "Aria, was that...Brandon?"
Aria had not told Joanna that she was going abroad with Brandon Heath.
So Joanna had no idea.
"Yep, it's him," Aria giggled. "I'm with him right now."
"Isn't Brandon on a business trip abroad?"
Joanna had seen the news about Brandon Heath the night before.
So, did Brandon Heath really bring Aria along with him on his business interview trip?
"Yes, he's on a business trip abroad, and I'm with him this time."
