After returning home, Tilda felt exhausted and went straight to her bedroom to sleep.
She had a series of bizarre dreams, and in the end, she was awakened by a knock on the door from her father.
She opened her eyes and instinctively reached for her phone to check the time, but then remembered…
Her phone was smashed!
“Tilda?”
Outside, her father kept knocking on the door.
Tilda quickly tidied up her hair and replied, “Coming!”
She opened the door and saw her dad holding a box. “Tilda, someone just delivered this. He said he accidentally broke your phone and wanted to compensate you.”
Tilda immediately knew it was Johnny who sent it! And what did he mean by “accidentally”?
“Is it for you?” he asked cautiously when his daughter didn’t say anything.
“Yeah, someone broke my phone and said he would buy me a new one,” Tilda replied as she reached out to take it without hesitation.
After all, it was definitely Johnny who broke it. For Mr. Chow, the money for a new phone was just a small expense, but for her, it was anything but!
Buying another phone would cost at least several thousand dollars.
“I thought it might be a scam!” he chuckled, not thinking too much about it.
Tilda laughed along for a few moments before taking the phone back to her room.
She had lost her own SIM card at the airport and would have to get a new one tomorrow. But for now, she could at least log in to WhatsApp.
When Tilda opened the box, she found one of the most expensive phones on the market right now from a certain brand.
But the protective film on the outside had already been removed.
“Giving me a used one?!” She furrowed her brows and realized that it was new, but someone had already installed her SIM card in it.
Did Johnny take her broken phone with him when he left? Otherwise, how would her SIM card be with him?
At that time, Tilda was so frustrated and didn’t pay attention to this detail.
She turned on the phone, logged in with her ID as usual, and downloaded commonly used apps, but before she could log in to WhatsApp, the phone suddenly rang.
Since it was a new phone, she hadn’t transferred her contacts yet, so all the numbers were unfamiliar.
“Hello?” Tilda’s tone wasn’t as good because she thought it was probably Johnny.
“Is this Tilda?” The other person’s voice sounded somewhat cautious.
It wasn’t Johnny.
“Yes, who is this?”
“I’m Howard. We… um… your blind date.”
Tilda was stunned.
She was so angry with Johnny that she hadn’t thought about contacting Howard all day.
“I sent you a message but didn’t get a reply, so I thought I’d try calling and didn’t expect you to answer.”
This was awkward…
It made Tilda seem reluctant to talk to him!
She quickly explained, “I’m so sorry. It’s just my phone got broken. I just got this new phone, and then you called.”
Howard chuckled on the other end. “How did your phone break?”
“It was an accident.”
Howard seemed like someone who wasn’t good at talking and appeared somewhat nervous.
Tilda spoke up again, “What are you doing?”
“I just finished preparing some documents for work. Right now… I’m waiting for your reply on WhatsApp.”
After Howard finished speaking, he laughed awkwardly a few times.
Tilda found his innocent demeanor amusing. “If I hadn’t replied or answered your call all this time, would you have just kept waiting?”
“Well… since I finished work today and don’t have anything else to do, I probably will.”
“Are you hungry?” Tilda played with the packaging of her new phone with her fingernail.
“Huh?”
“I’m hungry. How about treating me to a meal?”
