I regretted saving his conniving ass back then.I could have saved myself alone and mourned him if he has died in the accident.
Just then,his phone rang again.He smirked.
"What did I tell you,mum?Peyton herself is calling me,so tell me,how could a missing person call me,hmmm?"
Mrs Reeds rolled her eyes at him before prompting him to pick up the call.
"Pick up the phone and stop acting like some crazy dude."
That was the problem.I was already dead,so how I could I be calling him?Who was using my phone?Was this another trick of his to get everyone off his back?
The screen flashed the caller ID which was saved as"Nasty Woman"-his nickname for me.
Wow.I was at a loss for words.The man I had saved with my life kept shocking me with everything he did.The pain in my heart hurt even more.
He picked up the call,his voice taunting whoever was on the other end of the line.
"Had enough yet,Peyton?Tell me,how was your trip to wonderland,hmmm?Or have you realized your mistake and have called to beg?"
There was silence on the other end.Then,a low male voice spoke up.
"We're calling from the City's Police Department,and we'd like to ask you a few questions,"the strange man with my phone said.
