After her plane landed, Anna turned on her phone. Then, She saw that someone had called her not long ago

She glanced at the number and immediately called John.

“Hey, Anna! You‘re back!” John said as soon as he answered the phone.

“Yes, I just arrived. John, can you find out Charlotte‘s cell phone number for me? She‘s that president of SG” Anna asked.

Anna didn‘t have Charlotte‘s cell phone number. When Charlotte first arrived at the hotel, she scolded Anna. So, Anna was not with Charlotte during the days she evaluated the hotel.

John sounded surprised. He froze for a moment before answering, “Charlotte? Oh, I can! I‘ll ask the person in charge of that.”

Anna had just gotten off the airport highway in a cab when she received a text message from John. After seeing that it was the same number that had called her that morning, her gaze turned somber. She then immediately turned off her phone screen and closed her eyes as she wasn‘t in the mood to pay attention to Charlotte at the moment.

As she expected, it was Charlotte calling. Anna could guess what Charlotte was trying to say Moreover, she was sure she would call again sometime later.

It was afternoon when Anna arrived at her apartment. She was feeling delightful, so she took a shower and started cleaning the house. Then, she planned to bring her two children home for the weekend

As she was humming a song and tidying up her room, Charlotte called her again. “Hello! Who is this?” Anna asked deliberately as she answered the phone.

“It‘s me, Charlotte.” Charlotte‘s voice was somewhat somber. She sounded not as lively as she had been at the dinner party the other day.

Anna asked in a composed manner, “Oh, hello. What‘s up?” “Are you available now? I‘d like to have a talk with you.”

“Oh, Charlotte, you may be mistaken. I‘m not the project leader, so I can‘t talk to you about our collaboration. You‘ve called the wrong person.”

“No, I don‘t want to discuss about our partnership. I‘d like to talk about a personal matter.”

“You know, your personal matters‘ have nothing to do with me.”
