Because of Theodore's message, Easton had already put Fabian Holmes and Amelia Linton's numbers on the blocked list; his phone automatically intercepted calls from Fabian Holmes.
Due to that message, Easton felt a tightness in his chest, unable to sleep at all. Worrying about disturbing Lily Turner in her sleep, he lay on the sofa some distance from the bed instead of lying on it.
Ring ring! Ring...
The phone placed on the cabinet next to the sofa suddenly rang. Easton immediately reached out to answer it, not giving it a chance to ring a second time.
"Hello! Who's this?"
He kept his voice very low and light, regardless of whether the person on the other end could hear it or not.
"...Have you both gone to bed?"
After a good while, the person on the other end finally spoke.
Even though the voice coming through the phone was very soft, Easton recognized it immediately; it was none other than his father, Fabian Holmes.
"Mm!"
