BXBX NOVEL Chapter 251 Her Calls Got Ignored
"That\'s why I would advise that you don\'t look at me so passionately or else…,"
"Shameless," she spat out the words as she tried to free her hands from his firm hold. But he refused to let go.
"You have already called me that so many times that I have lost count of it… also it\'s not like I will be less shameless if you say so," Amos teased just to get rid of the tension created from their earlier argument with the security guards.
"I know that talking to you won\'t make you stop and that\'s why I won\'t argue with you further… instead I will use that time I would have used arguing with you to call Audrey," she said and immediately tilted her head to the right to avoid staring at him.
Meanwhile, as this was happening Joanna and Amos were not aware that Audrey who has long pieced up their scent from afar was listening to their conversation from her bed where she sat.
[Are they deliberately acting shameless and showcasing just how much they love each other to get back at me for not supporting their relationship?]
Audrey muttered as she threw her cell phone she was using on the bed. The cell phone bounced and ended up rolling to the floor.
Just then Caroline who was wearing her floral maid gown entered the room and met Audrey\'s cellphone on the floor.
Caroline frowned upon seeing Audrey\'s cell phone again on the floor.
Ever since in the morning, she has seen her cell phone on the floor over three times.
Now instead of being surprised to see the phone on the floor, she was furious instead.
"Young Miss, your cellphone is on the floor again," Caroline complained as she bent and picked up the phone lying close to the foot of the bed.
"Do you need me to get you a new cell phone? I am afraid you will not be able to make use of the phone again before today comes to an end…,"
"Were you not the one who got me the new cell phone this morning so why do you talk about changing phones again?" Audrey questioned, a deep frown cut across her forehead as she looked at the wine glass inside the tray in Caroline\'s hands.
Instead of wine the content of the wine glass was blood, which was her brunch.
"Because…," the loud ringing tone of the cell phone disrupted their conversation.
"Who is the caller?" Audrey asked not reaching out her hand to collect the cellphone Caroline was trying to pass over to her.
Caroline lowered her gaze and looked at the caller ID. "Anna, heart," Caroline replied, making sure to draw an imaginary heart just like it was on the cellphone screen.
"Disconnect the call," Audrey commanded sternly. She spun and gazed at the glass window instead.
"It\'s Miss Joanna that is calling…,"
"Of course, I know and that is precisely why I am telling you to disconnect the line," Audrey said, the veins on her forehead shooting out as she spoke.
"I have noticed ever since morning that Miss Joanna has been calling your line. She has called over twenty times. Why do you keep ignoring…," the words got stuck in Caroline\'s throat the instant Audrey turned and shot her a murderous glare.
"I…I will disconnect the call now," Caroline stammered as she tried to disconnect the call. Because of her frantic movements, the cell phone almost fell off her hands.
After disconnecting the line she dropped the cell phone on the bed and with the tray, in her hand, she proceeded to where Audrey sat.
"Young Miss, your meal," Caroline said. She removed the glass of blood from the tray and extended it toward Audrey\'s direction.
"I have lost my appetite so take it away," Audrey said coldly. She lay back on the bed with her back resting against the comfy bed.
"That is exactly what you said at dinner last night and breakfast this morning. You haven\'t tasted a sip…,"
"And that\'s because I am not hungry. You don\'t expect me to force myself to eat when I am not hungry or do you?" Audrey retorted, her piercing glares focused on Caroline\'s face.
Despite her domineering aura Caroline refused to be intimidated.
"Humans and werewolves can choose not to eat for two or three days but you know that is not the same with us vampires. Whether or not we are hungry we must eat, that is our fate…," Caroline trailed.
"Also, Miss Audrey, you don\'t need me to tell you what will happen if you don\'t consume blood…,"
"I am just fine despite missing dinner and breakfast so will you stop lecturing me, Caroline? I am really not in the mood for that right now," Audrey replied irritatedly. She rolled on the bed so that her back was facing Caroline.
"You can\'t blame me for being loquacious today. Madam has ordered me not to take a step out of your room if I failed in making you have your meal…,"
"Suit yourself then," Audrey interrupted sharply. She picked up the pillow and covered her ears with it.
Even with the pillow covering her ears she could still hear people talking from miles away. Covering her ears turned out to be useless.
Caroline proved to Audrey that she was also stubborn too by walking over to the chair at her reading table.
She sat down with the tray laid on her thighs.
The phone kept on ringing so many times. Audrey refused to be bothered by it. She lay on the bed staring into space.
When the ringing of the phone became too annoying she reached out her hands and switched off the phone.
"There is finally some peace here," Audrey muttered and threw the phone back on the bed.
Not long after a cellphone ringing tone disrupted the once quiet atmosphere. This time around it wasn\'t Audrey\'s cellphone which was ringing but Caroline\'s.
"It\'s Miss Joanna," Caroline informed. She answered the line before Audrey could tell her to do otherwise.
