Just as the two were about to take things further, my phone rang.
My fingers tensed, and a surge of True Qi shot out, causing the phone to emit smoke, completely destroyed.
Seconds later, the phone on the table, belonging to Sarah Moore, also rang!
I felt a wave of frustration crash over me!
At this crucial moment, who could be calling? I was utterly resigned!
Sarah wanted to pick up the phone, but my deep voice sounded, "No need to answer."
I was just about to destroy Sarah's phone with True Qi as well, but Sarah smiled, "Martinez't worry, I won't run away. Why are you so anxious? Both our phones are ringing; it must be something important. I'll take the call."
I nodded, releasing my grip. Sarah stood up, took the phone from the table, glanced at it, and said to me, "It's Samuel Thompson calling."
Then, she answered, "Mr. Thompson, what's wrong?"
