Audrey was taken aback.
Audrey was extremely curious about what it was that Mrs. Ruth wanted to show her.
As night fell, Violet Town became lively. Many people were barbecuing and singing in their courtyards. Fifi’s family was no exception.
“Hey! Robert, stop playing with water guns!” Dylan chased after Robert, while Phillip and the others laughed out loud. Then, they took guitars from the car and came down to sing.
The courtyard was very lively. Everyone was sitting everywhere, eating barbecue, watching dramas, and singing. The atmosphere was very lively.
Audrey took out her phone and was about to call Anthea when Mrs. Ruth suddenly nudged her gently from behind.
“Are you free now, dear?” Mrs. Ruth smiled as she said. Audrey put her phone back into her pocket. “Of course.”
Mrs. Ruth nodded. “Follow me.”
Hence, Audrey left with Mrs. Ruth.
Mrs. Ruth brought Audrey up the stairs. Along the way, she kept muttering, “When I saw you earlier, I thought you looked familiar. Oh, God, you look so similar to the girl on that phone.”
Cell phone? Girl?
Audrey was instantly stunned. “Madam, you mean…”
Mrs. Ruth pulled out her keys and opened the door to one of the rooms.
When the lights were on, Mrs. Ruth went straight to the bedside table and pulled out an old cell phone.
“Eh? I remember it was switched on before. Why isn’t there any movement?” Mrs. Ruth was clearly surprised.
Audrey said, “Could it be that there’s no battery life left?”
But Mrs. Ruth shook her head firmly. “Absolutely not! It was clearly at full charge before.”
Audrey didn’t know what was going on either.
“It’s fine.” Mrs. Ruth suddenly smiled. She stuffed the phone into Audrey’s hand. “Take it. This might be yours to begin with.”
Audrey still found it unbelievable. “Madam, why are you so sure that this belongs to me?”
Mrs. Ruth said, “I picked up this phone in the courtyard half a year ago. At that time, a production team came here to film. Then, someone left it here for no reason. I put it away and thought that someone would come back to look for it one day, but after waiting for a long time, the owner didn’t appear.”
“Half… half a year ago?” Audrey looked surprised.
Mrs. Ruth said, “It might not be just half a year. In short, it’s just slight shorter than half a year. This phone has a password, but the screen saver page is a photo of a young girl.”
Audrey looked at Mrs. Ruth in a daze.
Mrs. Ruth continued, “God! When I saw you, I thought you looked like that girl. It’s just that you were wearing different clothes. I wondered if this could really be yours and you’ve just forgotten.”
Audrey lowered her head and looked at the phone in her hand in a daze.
“There,” said Mrs Ruth. “It’s back to its rightful owner now. Charge it when you get back. You might be able to turn it on.”
Tonight, everyone was having a good time. After they were done tidying up the yard, Fifi personally sent them to the streets outside.
“Darling, thank you for your hospitality tonight,” Dylan said to Fifi.
Fifi waved her hand. ‘You’re welcome! If you have time, come over to our house to play. Be careful when you drive later. Be careful.”
Everyone nodded and got into their cars.
Dylan and Phillip drove separately, while Audrey sat in Dylan’s car in silence.
“Sis, what’s wrong? You look a little dull tonight.” Anna came over with a smile.
Audrey forced a smile. “It’s nothing. I had too much fun tonight. I’m exhausted.”
The few people in the car chattered about what had happened today. When they mentioned the playful Robert, Dylan smiled and said, “This guy is very fierce when he plays with water guns. The next time I come, I’ll definitely bring a big water gun.”
“You, how old are you to still be playing this!” Anna teased from behind.
When she returned to her residence, Audrey realized that the rest of the crew had gone to the nearby market to shop. They weren’t back yet.
Soon, everyone returned to their rooms.
Audrey had a separate room. After placing the old phone on the bed, she went to wash up.
By the time she was done, it was already midnight..
