Arabella Vanderbilt hung up the phone, took a long breath, and felt that talking to Joel Russo was really too taxing.
She considered herself not to be very foolish, and after so many years scrambling in that treacherous society, she had become quite tactful.
So why did she stumble when it came to Joel?
She had been waiting for this call before going to sleep, and now that the call was over, Arabella suddenly felt an emptiness.
What was that feeling?
It was as though there was nothing left to look forward to.
It seemed that she really couldn't afford to be idle.
When busy, she felt she lacked nothing, but it was only when she had nothing to do that she felt… she had nothing at all.
This feeling of emptiness was truly unbearable.
She sighed deeply, glanced at the time, turned and left the bedroom to go to the living room, turned on the TV and randomly selected some news to watch.
Utterly bored.
