Lilian Parker fell silent for several seconds before letting out a soft scoff, "I see. But rest assured, I'm not in the mood to chat with you right now. Is Ms. Foster with you? Hand her the phone, and I'll explain things to her myself so she doesn't continue to misunderstand you because of my presence."
Without confirming whether Amelia was in his car, Daniel simply replied, "I'll talk to her myself; there's no need for your explanation."
Then, not waiting for a response, he went on directly, "If it's not important, don't call me again."
"Wait, don't hang up. If you hang up, I'll call Amelia Foster," Lilian suddenly blurted out rapidly, "I'll ask you one last time, why won't you agree to my offer to Zachary Shane? After all, it would dispel the rumors between us and be greatly beneficial for repairing your relationship with her. Why won't you just play along with it?"
