Just as Easton Hols was about to send a text ssage reply to Lily Turner, Alia Linton called him, and with a swipe of his hand, he directly hung up.
But before he could type a single word, the phone rang again, and once again it was his mom calling.
"Whose call is it? Why aren’t you answering?"
Seeing that Easton Hols had no intention of answering the phone, Jaxon Dyer, who had already stood up and walked over, asked curiously, but he didn’t crane his head to look.
Easton Hols turned his head to glance at Jaxon Dyer, and with a slide of his slender fingers on the screen, he picked up Alia Linton’s call.
"What’s up?" His tone was indifferent, his expression was indifferent, and his attitude was equally indifferent.
"Co ho for lunch, I’ll have Sister Gui prepare the al."
"I’ve already started eating in the canteen."
Alia Linton barely finished speaking before Easton Hols imdiately refused.
Unbeknownst to him, he didn’t realize his mom ant going back to the Military District Compound ho. He thought she was calling him to his parents’ place for lunch and refused without a second thought.
"Is that woman eating with you in the canteen? You can’t do that, if you do, people will..."
"It’s none of your business what we do."
When Lily Turner left ho earlier, Alia Linton thought Lily went to the Military Departnt to find Easton Hols, and upon hearing Easton say he was eating in the canteen, her first thought was that Lily was eating there with him.
She was about to remind her son on the other end of the line that doing so would spark gossip, but he interrupted her before she could finish.
Easton Hols still hadn’t realized at this point; he still hadn’t thought that Alia Linton was at his Military District Compound ho, and he was upset about her ddling in his affairs.
Upon hearing this, Alia Linton was further convinced that Lily had gone to find Easton Hols to complain after leaving ho, and angrily said, "You can’t believe everything that woman says, what she says might not be the whole truth."
The relationship between the mother and son was already strained, and if that woman continued to interfere, their relationship would only worsen.
"Did you go to my place to find Lily?"
Upon hearing this, Easton Hols suddenly realized, and his mother’s earlier words rushed through his mind once more. After sorting through it, his brow furrowed sharply, "Are you at my place right now?"
Even though he was asking the person on the other end of the line, he already had a definite answer in his heart.
"Didn’t that woman tell you where I am?" Alia Linton retorted instinctively, and after retorting, she imdiately added with dissatisfaction, "Go ahead and indulge that woman, she’ll hurt you sooner or later."
"I want to!"
Easton Hols simply replied with three words, and regardless of how Alia Linton might react on the other end, he directly hung up the call.
After hanging up, he found Jaxon Dyer looking at him with a puzzled expression and said, "I can’t go eat with you, I have to leave first."
With that said, he lifted his steps and walked toward the door.
Under Jaxon Dyer’s confused and worried gaze, Easton Hols walked out of Jaxon Dyer’s office.
After walking out, he went nowhere else and directly drove ho.
When Easton Hols arrived ho, Alia Linton was sulking on the couch in the living room. When she saw him co in, she sprang up imdiately.
"What, did that woman ask you to co back and argue with ?" Her first words were full of deep dissatisfaction and anger.
