"Hello, it's me. How is your injury?" A baritone voice could be heard through the call. "It's alright." "There are some problems at the base that require your attention. Will you be able to handle them?" After a moment's hesitation, Pierre replied, "No problem."
Meanwhile, Selena heard him talking on the phone when she arrived at the door. Although she only heard his last sentence, she could determine that he sounded different from his usual self, as his tone was less haughty. He didn't sound like he was talking to his subordinate, as he wouldn't need to say those words to them.
As soon as she entered the room, he hung up the call. "Do you have something that you need to do?" She tried to appear casual while she posed the question.
"Yeah. I will need to go on a business trip." He didn't hide the fact that he might be away for some time from her. In fact, if it wasn't for his injury, he might have been gone since some time ago.
