Nene dialled Olivia's number and put the call on speaker before it was connected. When Olivia's voice came through the line, it was desperate and urgent.
"Finally! I've been waiting for you to call back. Has Mrs. Scott finished her yoga session yet?" Olivia asked, barely concealing her frustration.
Nene, maintaining her professional demeanour, replied smoothly, "I'll pass the phone to Mrs. Scott now." She ignored her questions and directly passed the phone to Aurora.
Taking the phone, Aurora's composed voice floated through the line. "Good evening, Mrs. Owen," she greeted, her tone gentle but deliberate, a subtle jab at Olivia's position.
On the other end, Olivia straightened up, clutching the phone tightly. "Good evening, Mrs. Scott. It's Olivia Swift. I apologize for disturbing you at this late hour."
"It's fine. Please go ahead," Aurora said, her tone polite yet clipped, making it clear she didn't intend to entertain idle chatter.
