Good at Fighting?
Angela and Martha turned their attention to the phone, knowing that it could be the stranger calling
again.
Angela checked her phone and found that it was a virtual phone call, without a number shown on the
screen.
*****
Angela hesitated for a moment to answer the phone but did not say a word.
Then, a girl’s voice came through the phone.
“Have you checked Twitter?
Angela’s eyes flickered. She paused for a moment and then whispered, “Yes.”
Her answer was short because she did not trust the caller enough. If she did, she would surely ask why
Gloria escaped intact with so many people there. She really couldn’t accept the fact!
Before Angela could say anything, the caller continued.
“She’s good at fighting, which I didn’t expec. at all.” The girl’s voice sounded calm as if she thought
failure was not a big deal.
Angela was surprised. “Good at fighting?”.
Angela grew up with Gloria, but how could she not know that Gloria was good at fighting?
“You don’t know about this? The caller sounded surprised and wanted to ask Angela why she hadn’t
told her before.
“No, it’s impossible.” Angela’s eyes widened in shock.
Martha leaned over to Angela with straining cars.
The caller said, “She beat those thugs black and blue. They’ve claiming turss for many years and know
how to handle opponents in a light. But no one could beat her. Finally, they called the police over.”
Angcla and Martha both were too shocked to speak.
What a bunch of losers!
Angela didn’t know what to say at this moment. She had a lot of questions in her
mind, but she didn’t trust the caller..
The caller sneered, “I know you have a lot of questions to ask. What should I do next?”
Angela was surprised.
She got me! only she was reliable!
The caller continued calmly, “I’ll set Gloria
Now that I know what she’s got, I won’t be overconfident next time. I’ll get tough with her. Focus on
what’s going on outside these days. Angela, this is your last chance.”
Angela pursed her lips and said nothing.
With that, the caller hung up the phone.
Angela put down her phone with mixed feelings and turned to Martha.
“You heard her. What do you think?”
Martha said with a frown, “My biggest concern right now is that she might be sent over by Gloria, or
more likely Gloria herself. What if you fall for her trap and end up in jail?”
Angela looked terrible. “I’m also worried, but nothing ventured, nothing gained!”
Martha said nothing with a serious face. Angela said, “I stay locked up here every day.
You can’t get me out of here, but she can. She’ll get me out if I work with her! Do you know how much
this means to me? I can change my number and use a voice changer when I talk to her next time.”
Martha frowned, “Didn’t she say she would try again? Let’s wait and see.”
“I hate not knowing whether it’s a man or a woman.” Angela clutched the phone, her face pale.
Angela thought about it and looked at Martha. “Mom, do you think it could be Rachel?”
