"What? I'm here." Liam groaned. "You do know I'm at work, Chloe?" He rolled his eyes. Suddenly, as he turned to his left, Clarissa could be seen patting herself on the back. How had he not noticed her before? "Hey, let's talk later, okay? I'm very busy right now."
"Hey, don't you hang up. I am trying to be your friend now just as you've asked--" Chloe was saying until Liam hung up.
