Chapter 367

Seraphina was holding her phone, murmuring a soft “hello,” but there was no response from the other end.

This was undeniably weird. Seraphina shapped back to reality, sat quietly for a moment, then gently tapped on her phone.

Still, no response.

Seraphina decisively hung up, then dialed back.

The call went through, but no matter how long the ringtone went on, no one picked up.

After hanging up, Seraphina found she couldn’t sleep anymore.

Seraphina almost jumped, promptly set down the wine bottle, picked up the phone and saw a domestic number displayed on the screen.
