The True Heiress is the Reserved Fiancé's Exclusive Memory-Chapter 446 - 457 You Still Have Me (2)

Koa Jackson lifted a corner of the blanket with one hand and, holding her, rolled in.

Just as he was about to kiss her, the abrupt ring of a phone startled them.

Both froze momentarily.

Mia Ginger hoarsely said, "It seems like it’s my phone."

Koa Jackson exhaled softly, turned to lie on his back, and said in a low voice, "Answer it."

Calls this late are mostly urgent matters.

Mia glanced at him, finding his lightly flushed face unusually charming and seductive, with a rare touch of desire. Hesitating for a moment, she still crawled to the bed’s edge, picked up the down jacket from the carpet, and looked at the phone.

Caller ID: Dad.

She froze, took a deep breath, sat up with the blanket wrapped around her, and answered the call.

"Mia." On the other end, Aiden Jiang’s voice sounded a bit stern as he called her name.

"Dad," Mia softly replied, "Calling this late, is something wrong?"

"Where are you?" Aiden asked directly.

"..." Mia was taken aback and instinctively lied, "At my place."

"Where’s Koa?"

"Huh?"

Aiden paused slightly, then said, "I heard he took you to a party tonight. It ended so late, I was worried about you."

"Oh." Mia tightened her grip on the phone, "Brother Jackson has already gone home."

"Is that so?"

"..." Mia said nothing.

Aiden thought for a moment, then chuckled, "Alright then. I just wanted to make sure you’re home safe."

"Okay." Mia smiled lightly, "I’m about to sleep, goodnight, Dad."

"Rest early." Aiden hung up the phone.

Mia exhaled in relief.

She placed the phone on the bedside table, turning to her side.

Koa Jackson reached out, pulled her wrist, and drew her into his arms, kissing her.

They hadn’t continued for more than a few minutes when Mia’s phone suddenly rang again.

Koa Jackson didn’t release her.

Mia ignored it too.

The phone kept ringing, its sound particularly loud in the quiet night.

Koa Jackson sighed, letting her go.

Mia, extremely embarrassed, climbed over again to check the phone.

Caller ID: Louis Cox.

She froze, glanced at Koa Jackson, and suddenly felt troubled, unsure whether to answer.

Louis rarely called her at night.

His favorite tactic was a sudden ambush.

If he wanted to meet, he might suddenly appear in front of you at any moment.

Mia thought for a moment and answered.

In a low voice, she said, "Hello?"

Louis heaved a sigh of relief, directly asking, "Where are you?"

"..." Mia faltered, "At home."

"Oh." Louis went silent for a moment. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Mia’s good mood vanished, and she whispered gloomily, "Why are you calling so late?"

"I thought you were with Koa Jackson..."

Before he could finish, Mia hung up and turned off the phone.

She glanced at Koa Jackson while holding the phone.

Forcing a smile, she put the phone aside and climbed back into his arms.

Yet—

The tender moment lasted less than two minutes before his phone rang again.

Much like the previous call from Louis, it rang incessantly without pause.

Koa Jackson looked at the coat on the sofa from afar and, for a moment, felt so frustrated he almost wanted to swear.
