Chapter 54: It's really her
Sara stood outside the hospital staring blankly into space. She took out her phone and placed a call across to Heya. She had advised Heya to always go to bed on time but this time, she had to disturb her sleep a little bit.
"Sara? something wrong?" Heya asked groggily as soon as she took the call.
"I'm sorry for disturbing you but.... is...Mr Li home?" She asked.
"No. He did not return tonight. Ms Long said he had business to attend to" Heya answered with a yawn.
"Can you.. send me Mr Li's private number?" She asked uncertainly. She didn't know how Heya would react to her asking for his private number by this time of the night.
"I don't know how he's going to react to that. He is really strict with his number. Since you are his employee, you should ask Ms Long directly for it instead. She's in the best position to do that" Heya advised.
Sara was quiet for a while before thanking Heya then, she ended the call.
She noticed a missed call from her father. He must have called her when she was speaking with Heya. She then dialled his number.
"Dad, I just left the hospital, Are you still at the restaurant?"
"Yes. When are you going home? Joreen is at home alone."
"I'll be there soon. Do not worry."
After ending the call, she called Ms Long. After calling her line twice, Ms Long finally took the call.
"Ms Wang?"
"Is Mr Li awake? Text me Mr Li's private number" Sara went straight to the point.
Ms Long was quiet for a while before answering
"He is awake. Why do you need his number?"
"It's none of your business. He is my employer and I have every right to have my employer's phone number. Or do you have a problem with that?" Sara knew it was not the right time to start acting nice with her. Else, Ms Long would continue with her prissiness.
"Mr Li needs rest now. It's not the right time to call him" Ms Long replied calmly. She knew that Sara was right about having his phone number. She was not one of the Li corporation's employee. She was Heya's personal trainer.
"I have no idea you became his mum. You always make decisions for him. How motherly of you. Or By chance, ....do you have a once sided crush on Mr Li?"
"Sara! What are you saying?" Ms Long fired back. Whatever she was doing, she did because she was a good secretary and nothing more. How dare Sara accuse her?
"Text me his number. I didn't say I was going to call him now. But I'll have to know how he is faring since it was my fault he got hurt. I'll give you 30 seconds to do that" Sara ended the call as soon as she finished speaking. If she doesn't send it within the next 30seconds, Ms Long would officially be added to her blacklist. She counted to 30 then heard a 'ding' sound. When she saw it was a string of numbers, she let loose a smile.
Who said she wasn't going to call now? She had to free her conscience and know how he was doing.

Muchen was just lying on the bed staring at the ceiling with a lot going on his mind.
The second time he saw Sara, would things have changed if he had gone after her immediately she left and not send Ms Long instead? He was just curious that day. He didn't know that the Curiosity would be a long term thing. But would things have been different if he had gone after her that day and drove her around so she would cry her sorrow out in his embrace? But he was sure of one thing. That wouldn't have happened. Sara was not that type. She had even rejected Mo Dexi. What made him so special? He had been giving her space as he knew she was going through a heartbreak. But should he still continue giving her that space? She may likely never like him.
He desperately needed someone to talk to. To pour his heart out to. But his closest friend and cousin was useless. He did not even like her. Ms Long was not even an option. Why was everyone against her? He felt really sad imagining how lonely she was.
He took his phone from beside the bed and scrolled down to Sara's number.
'Should I call her? should I not call her? should I call her? should I not call her?'
If only she could just break out of her shell and give him a call. What else would he ask for? But even if she refused to call. He was going to call her. He was about dialling her number when his phone rang.
The sudden sound startled him that he dropped his phone on the bed before he could even see the caller's ID.
He picked up his phone begrudgingly, wondering who was interrupting him. When he saw it was Sara calling, His eyes almost fell from the socket as he stared in shock.
He sat up abruptly which caused him to wince slightly in pain.
"Sara?" He asked gently. For fear that she might suddenly disappear. He needed to be sure he was not hallucinating and it was really her.
'He's fine.' She thought as a smile appeared on her face
"Mr Li, did I wake you?" She asked.
'It's really her, that's her voice. She really called me!He thought excitedly.
