Chapter 847: Get Your Major General On The Phone (part three)

"Really? He is not there? Fine. I'll call him later! But never let me know if you are lying to me! Hmp!" Just then, Louisa hung the phone up without saying goodbye. She did not even bother to be polite just like how most kids from political families would do.

Puff! Just look at how she spoke and behaved! What a crazy woman." Lee grimaced at the phone as if Louisa's face was on it. So what if she was the Commander's daughter? She did not earn the reputation by herself. Why was she so arrogant? Considering this, Lee felt much relieved. He put the phone back on the table and continued his mopping.

Based on the house interior design, it wasn't hard for Lee to tell that Leena liked finer things. Every decoration was delicate; it was like a mirror of her good taste. It made him curious about the lady's personality even more. He was at that state when the phone placed on the table suddenly rang again, thus, giving him a scare. He hesitated if he should answer it. What if another crazy woman like the commander's daughter was calling? He was really bad at dealing with these arrogant misses but then he could not just let the phone keep ringing. He had no options but to pick it up and answer the call. However, to his surprise, a cute voice greeted him even before he said something.

"Hi! Good morning, Kevin!"

Leena was refreshed from head to foot and even her voice sounded delightful and pleasant.

Hello! Major General is not here now. He left his phone when he went out. You can call him again later." It was another woman. But was there something wrong with her brain? Why did she say good morning when it was high in the afternoon? Lee was confused. Where on earth did all these strange women come from?

Oh! He is not there? I see. I'm sorry, I thought he answered the phone so I did not think twice before I said something. Don't feel strange, please." Leena stuck out her tongue awkwardly. Screwed! She said good morning to a stranger. Hopefully, he would not think her as a weird person. After all, it was already in the afternoon there. Good morning would be extremely weird.

"It's alright. You dialed the right number. This is Major General Gu's phone. I answered it for him since he is out now. You don't need to feel sorry about it." Although this woman sounded a bit strange, it was evident too that she was quite polite. She seemed to be a well-educated woman.

Well, can you tell me whether he's come back from his mission?"

Leena did not know who he was but she heard him call Kevin Major General, thus she realized that he was one of Kevin's men.

Yes, we came back yesterday. Is that Leena?" It was easy for Lee to conclude that the woman on the other end cared for his Major General. Besides, he also observed that she knew Kevin's business well because she mentioned the mission. She must be Leena Leng! Plus, she said good morning and it was still morning in Paris. Lee was not bad at observing people. He was a soldier, thus, he really was supposed to have that ability.

Yes, this is Leena Leng. But how'd you know it's me?" Leena's face turned red immediately after realizing why the man knew her. Although she was alone and no one could see her, she still could not help feeling shy. Meanwhile, a sense of delight emerged in her heart too.

"Major General mentioned you before. Leena, Major General went out for some business. Do you have any emergency?" Lee had thought women from prominent families were difficult to deal with. His experience with Louisa was a piece of evidence to it. That idea was wiped off as soon as he began talking with the woman on the phone though. Leena was quite easy-going and polite. Was it because she was relatively special? Lee wondered.

Oh! I see. I just want to inform him that I'm safe. Nothing really pressing. I'll call him later since he is not home." Leena smiled softly. Since their last serious talk, she promised that she would call him about her safety from time to time. So she decided to make the call to surprise him. It turned out that he left his phone home though.

Don't be so polite with me, Leena. I'll tell Major General you called once he's back." Lee said respectfully. Leena was polite to him and he should surely be polite too. People were supposed to get along with each other this way.

Yes, please do that. Thank you. Bye-bye!" A gentle smile was still resting on her face when Leena replied. She was not an arrogant woman and was always polite to people no matter who they were.

"You're welcome. Bye-bye!" Lee hung the phone up. He was glad to know Leena was amicable. He answered two calls in such a short time and both of them were daughters from prominent families. But how come the former one was so domineering while the latter one was so easy-going? They were so different from each other. Lee could not help but feel lost in thoughts so that he ended up idly standing while holding the mop.

"What are you thinking? You seem lost somewhere."

It was Kevin's voice that pulled Lee back to reality. It was only then that he noticed his Major General's hand waving before his face. He didn't even notice that his superior was back. What was he thinking about?

Oh! Major General, you're back. I'm sorry for being a bit absent-minded." Lee scratched his head awkwardly.

"Em! I finished the thing and just came back. Are you ok?" Kevin frowned slightly. What was wrong with Lee today? He hadn't seen him look like that before.

"I'm fine. Oh! Major General, Miss Ye and your wife Leena called you just now. Leena just hung up a few minutes ago." Lee touched his nose. He had a steadier personality compared to Mark. Mark was more impatient.

What? Leena called me? What did she say?" Kevin ignored the other woman as all he cared about was his little wife. He walked to the table and took his phone.

She said she called you to inform you of her safety and nothing emergent. And she would call you later." Now that the Major General did not ask him about Miss Ye, Lee also ignored her and did not take her message to Kevin. Anyway, Kevin already knew that she called him. Whether Major General would call her back or not was not his business anymore.

Em! I see. I'm calling her back now." Kevin dialed Leena's number while speaking. He couldn't help but smile in delight just by knowing that Leena called.

Hello! This is Leena!" Leena was about to go out when her phone suddenly rang. She checked the number and found out it was from Kevin's phone but she was not sure whether it was Kevin calling or his subordinate. Thus, she answered in a polite voice this time to avoid the awkward situation from happening again. After all, she just made the mistake a few minutes ago.

"Hey, it's me. Have you got up?" Kevin never marked his contact list with full names. He only marked them with the first letter of their names as abbreviations. This way, if he lost his phone someday somewhere, he could avoid the risk of his contacts' details being leaked. That was also the reason why Lee failed to recognize Louisa and Leena when he answered the phone.
