Chapter 44. Can I Make a Call?
After breakfast, Kate changed her clothes and wanted to go out. Laura, the middle-aged housekeeper, said awkwardly, “Mr. Fox said you were not well and had to stay home for rest.”
Not well? That was his conclusion after last night’s examination?
Kate felt a lot of spite toward him. Recalling the details of last night, her face went red and white for a while.
She caught a chance when nobody was looking and snuck to the door, but as soon as she opened it, she saw an expressionless face. It was that of Buzz-cut.
He just cut his hair not long ago, and his scalp was almost visible. His dark face had a further deterrent effect.
Kate’s heart sank to the bottom of the ocean. So she was under house arrest?
“Can I make a call?” She asked.
“To whom?”
“The supermarket.”
“You don’t have to go to work. They have been told.”
“Then…”
Before she finished, Buzz-cut’s dark face interrupted her coldly. “You cannot call anybody else.”
