Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 132

Because she didn't sleep well, she got up 20 minutes earlier than usual today. She stepped out of the bedroom to find the usual whole wheat bread on the dining table in the living room. Ethan was bustling about in the kitchen, and from the smell, he was frying eggs.

Soon enough, Ethan came out with the eggs, looked at her, and poured a cup of coffee in front of her.

"Eat up, Izzy, I still have another egg to fry."

As soon as he spoke, Ines sensed that his voice was slightly hoarse, showing signs of a cold. She just took a glance at him and bowed her head to eat her breakfast.

Ethan chuckled and went back to the kitchen to fry eggs for himself. At that time, his phone on the table rang.

"Izzy, can you answer the phone for me?" Ethan's voice came from the kitchen.

Without even looking, Ines picked up. A soft voice came from the phone, "Hello."

A woman's voice? Ines couldn't help but frown. She remembered that Ethan had few female contacts in his call history, and besides Ashley Meyer and his mother, she had never seen him call any other woman.

The person on the phone didn't hear a response and continued, "How's my brother-in-law been doing recently? I haven't been back to A City for a long time. I miss home and plan to come back in a few days."

Brother-in-law? Ines was stunned. She explained, "Miss, I think you dialed the wrong number. There's no your brother-in-law here." She didn't have a sister.

Hearing a stranger woman's voice, Silvia Caldwell was also taken aback. Afraid that Ines would hang up, she immediately said, "I didn't dial the wrong number. My brother-in-law is Ethan. Are you his new wife?"

Ines found this very strange and felt a little uneasy. She frowned and replied, "I am indeed Ethan's wife."

"Where is he?"

"He's in the kitchen making breakfast." Ines answered truthfully.

After she finished talking, there was no sound on the other end of the phone. Just when Ines thought she had hung up, she heard her say, "Then tell him that I'll call him when I have time."

Ines couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "This is so weird."

She knew Ethan's number and could call him whenever she wanted. Why did she need to go through the trouble of relaying the message?

When Ethan came out of the kitchen, he found Ines holding his phone in a daze.

"Izzy, what's wrong? Who was it?"

Ines glanced at him and said a bit annoyed, "I don't know. It seemed to be an international call from E Country. The person called you 'brother-in-law' and said she would call back when she had time."
