"What are you saying?" She asked, snatching the phone from Ivan. Her eyes glinted as her heart suddenly pounded. Her phone call with him earlier was too brief, hence, Zoey assumed Nikolai was the one who placed Angelo in such a state.
However, what was he saying now? Although Zoey couldn't see Nikolai right at this moment, she could tell that he wasn't lying. Moreover, Nikolai never lied to her — no matter how brutal the truth, he would prefer honesty more than white lies. At the very least, he wanted honesty from her and Nikolai to Zoey as his world was surrounded with deadly schemes and rotting fakery.

PPS. Sorry for my days of absence. Apparently, the town I live in was one of the towns that received a critical blow from the Typhoon Vamco (Ulysses). I am fortunate to live in the high area of the town, but those who lives in the lower part of our town had faced devastating losses.
The flood had reached the roof of the houses, washing everything away. Thus, the total blackout to avoid more electrocution accidents. We didn't have electricity for days. However, due to the wind, the main line of our internet broke. So, I had to retype the drafts from my laptop to my phone to upload. (I tried going to the cafe but my laptop can't connect to their Wi-Fi.)
Anyway, thank you for understanding. I appreciate your kind words despite not hearing from me for a week. <3 I really do. I am fine, fortunately. I am just glad that my friends and family were also safe.
I hope everyone that's reading WYM are all safe <3
