Chapter 166 - Kiema

I held my finger to my lips, telling everyone to remain silent. I went to the phone, read the instructions. Pressing 0 for the front desk, I waited until the line was answered. "Yes, I'd like to speak to the manager on duty, please."

"She's out from the desk. Could I tell her who is calling?" a young man asked.

"I'll wait for her to return, thank you."

The phone line was filled with more music.

I chuckled, turned to the room. "They even have music when you're waiting on the phone."

"Earthers must hate silence," Lukas said. "Bunch of weirdos."

"Too bloody right, mate," Asher said as he winked at Lukas.

Lukas chuckled.

"Yes, this is Ms. Dominia. How can I help you?" Nix said over the line.

"It's Kiema. I just wanted to make sure you were at the front desk. Remember, no peeking or eavesdropping. I'll call as soon as we have an answer for you."
