Chapter 135: Video Call
Editor: Henyee Translations
Owen sat in the car and listened to Bruce without responding.
After Owen’s car left, a black car that had stopped at the entrance of the restaurant at some point in time slowly turned around and drove away from the hotel.
The driver sent Owen home first before leaving with Bruce.
Owen came back a little early today. He opened the door and saw that it was still empty, so he couldn’t help but pick up his phone to call Anita.
The moment he turned on his phone, he realized that there was an unread message from Anita.
"Owen, you didn’t pick up when I called you. Are you off work?"
After reading this message, Owen no longer hesitated. He took off the clothes he had been wearing for the entire day and hung them on the hanger while calling Anita. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
He originally thought that Anita would be asleep. After all, with the time difference between them, it should be time for Anita to sleep. However, he didn’t expect Anita to pick up after a few rings.
"Owen, you’re back from work?" Anita said in surprise as soon as the video call connected.
Owen had just taken off half of his clothes and was unbuttoning his shirt when he heard Anita’s voice. He quickly turned around and looked at his phone with a smile. "Yes, I just got home."
Anita had just washed up and laid in bed. Today’s exchange ended a little late, and she had eaten a little too much for dinner, so she didn’t sleep that early.
She happened to receive a video call from Owen. However, she didn’t expect to see Owen taking off his clothes the moment the call connected. The half-naked Owen was seen by Anita.
Her face flushed instantly.
It had been a few days since they had a cold war before they left. Today, she suddenly saw Owen’s naked upper body in the video. For a moment, Anita’s thoughts returned to when they were lovemaking in bed.
She thought of when Owen’s strong body was firmly suppressing her every time. Anita licked her mouth and suddenly felt a little thirsty.
"Anita, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you talking?" Owen took off his shirt and changed into his pajamas to look at Anita in the video.
Anita’s imagination was originally running wild. When she came back to her senses, she carefully turned to the screen and realized that Owen had already put on his clothes. She felt relieved.
"Oh, it’s nothing. I just choked on a mouthful of warm water." Anita was embarrassed to say that she had blushed because of Owen’s naked upper body, so she could only lie.
Owen nodded at Anita’s words. Through the video, neither of them could see the other’s true appearance.
Naturally, Owen couldn’t see Anita’s blushing face. "By the way, how was the exchange today? Are you tired?" Owen looked at Anita and asked.
When Anita heard Owen’s words, she immediately remembered the difficult problem she had encountered at the exchange meeting these two days, so she looked at Owen and said, "It was alright. I’m not too tired. It’s just that I don’t understand a lot of their professional terms. I’ve been studying hard these past two days."
"What professional terms? Have you forgotten that I’m also a computer science major and have even studied at Columbia University? If you don’t know them, send them over and I’ll help you take a look." Owen looked at Anita and smiled.
When Anita heard Owen’s words, she remembered and her eyes lit up. That’s right, Owen was also an expert in this area and was even much more knowledgeable than her. Why didn’t she think of it? "Alright, I’ll send it to you later."
"Owen, if you continue to study, you will definitely become a famous professor in the future." Anita looked at Owen and smiled. freewebnoveℓ.com
Owen smiled and didn’t reply.
"What’s wrong? I think it’s true. You’re so outstanding, and you’re invited to teach at our school. If you didn’t go to the company to work, you might already be a respected mentor," Anita said when she saw Owen remain silent.
"Anita, not everyone can focus on what they like without stopping to do it. Everyone has their own responsibilities and missions to complete, so there are really not many people in this world who can focus on what they like." Owen thought about Anita’s words. He didn’t know if Annie could understand what he meant, but he still said it in the end.
He knew that Anita felt pity that he didn’t continue to study. However, his father’s health was deteriorating at that time. He had put in so much effort for the company all these years. If he didn’t come back to take care of the company, the company might have collapsed.
Anita was stunned for a long time as she listened to Owen.
