He felt a surge of annoyance, released her, and took out his cell phone to answer.
"What?!" Kevin Cliff's voice suddenly soared as he glanced at Charlotte Green who was still sitting on his lap.
Charlotte Green sensed his guard going up and, feeling awkward, quickly became fully alert and moved to sit across from him. Then she fixed her gaze on the scenery flashing by outside the window, fearing he would think she was eavesdropping on his phone call.
She knew it must be Abigail Summer calling, and only Abigail Summer could make him lose his composure like that.
"When did this happen? What the hell are you all doing!" Kevin Cliff snapped in a low voice, still paying attention to Charlotte Green.
"Go find them now!!" Finally, he growled at the other end of the line, and then hung up the phone.
Although Charlotte Green had heard everything and knew he had finished the call, she turned back to him and said with an awkward smile, "That was Abigail, wasn't it?"
