On the other end of the call, Stuart Truman was just about to turn back.
Since he hadn't prepared in advance, and Victoria Carter might not necessarily meet with buyers in the capital city, he had only followed her to her temporary residence in the city before deciding to turn back.
He hadn't gone far when his phone suddenly rang.
The moment he took out his mobile phone, a chill spread from the soles of his feet. After a long while, he finally answered the call.
"Come home for a bit."
Joshua Sulliven's voice was brief, his tone seemingly no different than usual. As soon as he finished the sentence, he hung up without waiting for Stuart's response.
Stuart stared blankly at his phone, his heart a mess of unease.
He exhaled deeply, as if making some kind of firm decision. Then, rising to his feet, he headed straight back toward the villa.
