Chapter 153 Phone Call

When Joseph called Laicas, Lucas was still waiting outside of the restaurant.

“Sir, Ms. Chloe hasn’t come out yet. Have you finished your business? Are you coming over?”

Lucas asked.

“Why aren’t you keeping an eye on her? What have you been doing?” Joseph’s cold voice cut through the phone, carrying a palpable sense of oppression and undeniable anger.

“Sir…” Lucas keenly sensed Joseph’s anger, and it was particularly intense. The hairs on his arms stood on end. “I’ve been waiting right outside the restaurant. I haven’t moved an inch.”

“Who told you to wait outside? What are you supposed to see by waiting there?”

Lucas was tongue-tied.

‘It was you who told me to wait outside!’ he shouted inwardly.

“Should I go in now?” he asked.

“Don’t let her stay inside for too long,” Joseph commanded.
