"Hannah, how do you have the time to call me?" This teasing remark seemed like a complaint, but it was full of delight.
Elliana Lyle leaned against the window, taking the call, while Norman Bennett was in a meeting.
"Little Sprout~ Miss your big sister?" A dashing, carefree voice came from the other end, with a playful and teasing tone.
Hearing this familiar voice, an inexplicable smile spread across her face; she kind of missed having Hannah around.
But she still let out a cold huff and said, "Who's missing you? If you didn't call, I'd have forgotten you even existed."
"Is that so? Is Little Sprout that heartless?"
After teasing her for a while, Hannah's tone turned serious: "Little Sprout, in a few days, I might have to go on a mission. I might not come back, so I thought of giving you a call."
As those words fell, the smile on Elliana's face instantly dimmed.
'Go on a mission, not come back' — these words sent a chill through her heart.
