Chương 155: Rick spills some beans

Chapter - 155

Rick's senses were abruptly jolted awake by the vibration of his phone, and he groaned as he fumbled to locate it. An internal plea echoed in his mind, hoping this call wasn't another urgent emergency. His bleary eyes squinted at the screen, revealing his father's name.

A sudden wave of guilt and anxiety washed over him – he hadn't anticipated his father reaching out, especially after the chaotic events of the previous night.

Reluctantly, he accepted the call, attempting to infuse his voice with a nonchalant air. "Hey, Dad. What's going on?"

His father's voice crackled through the phone, a mixture of concern and weariness evident. "Rick, how are you? And where are you?" The questions hung in the air, loaded with unspoken implications.
