The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 843 Fortune Turns

To Chloe, Daniel was undoubtedly a playboy-who knew how many women he'd been with!

"Chloe, you've never given me a chance. You've never loved me. How do you know I'm not a good man? To fairly judge me, you'd have to experience loving me first. By saying I'm not a good man without trying, you're slandering me!" Daniel said, half-joking, trying to tease her.

"Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll slap you just like that ghost in the red dress did to Jax. And trust me, I hit harder than that ghost-don't think you'd like that!" Chloe warned, clearly irritated.

Meanwhile, Jax was still stalling, not pulling out his phone to call his wife.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

"Smack!"

The ghost didn't waste words, slapping Jax again.

After the slap, she asked, "Are you going to call or not?"

"It's not that I don't want to call, but there's no signal in this cave! Even if I wanted to call, I couldn't get through," Jax protested, grasping at straws for

an excuse.

"Who said there's no signal? There is! Take out your phone and call your wife now. Your phone will work just fine."

Terrified, Jax reluctantly pulled his phone from his pocket. Although he was extremely hesitant, he finally unlocked the screen and checked.

To his shock, his phone showed full signal bars. It turned out his iPhone had excellent reception, even deep inside this cave-something Jax had never expected.

"Yes, yes, I'm doing it."

With massive reluctance and unease, Jax found his wife's number in his contacts.

After much hesitation, he finally pressed the call button.

The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.

Relieved, Jax quickly and discreetly hung up the phone and explained, "I did what you said and called her, but she didn't pick up. She must be asleep with her phone on silent, so she didn't hear it."

The ghost wasn't about to let him off that easily, "If she didn't hear it, call her again!"

"My wife is already asleep. It's really

late. If I call and wake her up, it'll be awful! I think it's better to wait and tell her everything in the morning when she wakes up," Jax argued, desperately trying to avoid another call

Just as Jax finished speaking, his phone rang. His wife was calling him back.

He was stunned, not having expected her to return the call.

The ghost saw the caller ID and immediately ordered, "Don't try to trick me! Answer the phone now!"
