Chapter 359 An Unexpected Call
Jack nodded emphatically. “We’ll take care of you, Mommy.”
Both Jacob and Jude were confident as well. “Mommy, you can rest as much as you need with us around.”
Vania chuckled at how sensible her children were. She wanted to let them know that her hand was fine, but then her phone rang.
It was an unknown number. Who’s calling me at this hour? Vania stared at the number and paused.
Hanson and the six children all noticed her reaction. They all stared at her in concern.
Hanson came forward to glance at her phone. Since she did not answer the call, he started making wild guesses and assumed it was one of his love rivals, so he asked grumpily, “Who is it?”
Vania shook her head. “I don’t know. We’ll find out once I answer it.”
She put the phone on speakers and picked up the call in front of everyone.
Hanson was all ears as he stood beside her.
Before Vania could even speak, a familiar voice came through the phone. “Vania, it’s me, Dylan.”
Immediately, Vania felt a flash of irritation. How does he know my number?
When Hanson heard the name, his face turned dark at once.
Something was telling him that Dylan had thoughts he should not have about Vania.
Hanson knew about the relationship Vania had with Dylan in the past. Therefore, regardless of what his reason was, the fact that he was suddenly reaching out to Vania now left Hanson feeling disgruntled.
Meanwhile, Dylan did not even wait for Vania to respond. He hurried on, “Don’t hang up. I have something important to tell you.”
He sounded very panicky as if he feared that Vania would just hang up on him.
Vania did not say anything, but it meant that she was giving him a chance to continue speaking.
Dylan sighed in relief when Vania did not end the call. He got straight to the point. “Could you come out and meet me? I want to talk to you. Melanie has asked me to set up a trap for you.”
Vania had moved to end the call once she heard Dylan asking to meet up with her. She had no inclination to ever see him again.
However, her jaw dropped once she heard the rest of his words.
Melanie asked Dylan to set me up?
After all that happened today, Melanie did not choose to stop all her scheming, but instead, she went to Dylan?
Vania frowned and glanced at Hanson.
Hanson nodded his assent, and Vania uttered her first sentence throughout this entire call. “Send me the location.”
Dylan’s heart finally settled down once Vania agreed to meet him.
His tone was calm at last. “Okay. I’ll be waiting.”
The six children had heard every word of that call.
Morales and Morgan stared at Vania in disbelief. Why would our Mommy want to hurt Miss Vania?
Without a clue about what was happening, these innocent children had been dragged into the conflict between the grownups.
Vania saw the confusion in their eyes and she stroked their heads to console them.
Then, she turned to her four children and said, “Darlings, Mommy has to go out for a while. You must take good care of your two little brothers, okay?”
The four children nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry, Mommy.”
They knew that Melanie was involved in this, so they added in concern, “Mommy, you must be careful and you must not get hurt again.”
“I promise that I’ll be careful.” Vania nodded before glancing at Hanson. “Let’s go.”
