บท 137: Appreciation for the single parent

"What a shame." 

Asher snapped his tongue, typing what he whispered just now, and sent it to Cosette. After sending his message, he reclined on the couch. He held his phone in between his thumb and the side of his index, holding it on the bottom, eyes on the screen.

Much to his surprise, the phone started ringing. His brows furrowed, staring at the name Cosette Blac on the screen. 

"What a surprise," he muttered, letting it vibrate while wondering the reason she was suddenly calling him. This wasn't what he expected when he sent the file to her email. Cosette had been particularly distant from him and had always been clear about the line between them. Calling each other wasn't a normal occurrence.

When he realized he hadn't picked up the call, Asher hurriedly tapped the red button. The second he placed his phone in front of his ear, his brows knitted.
