Chapter 1005

“Let me tell you something,” he began, his voice filled with mischief. Whenever I was out with these buddies of mine, lan would never answer my calls. He would just hang up on me. But recently, because of all the ruckus in the Raymond family, he decided to pick up the phone. But I can bet you, he won’t show up here. He’ll call in less than a minute.”

Ryan kept hanging up, but this time, lan sent him a video call request.
