Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter sthought, Ivor answered, "He sounded too cautious. People usually speak casually instead of how he just sounded." Floyd thought nothing was wrong with that, saying, "Maybe he was just nervous that you suddenly called him. He could've been telling you the truth all along." "Are you sure?" Ivor relaxed slightly but still felt somewhat uneasy. He could not explain it, either.
Floyd devised an idea for his boss, "That was just my opinion on it, Mr. Ivor. If you're still worried, you should pressure Toby to ask your wife to call you once he reaches the research institute.
"I know Ms. Bonnie is occupied with her research, but I'm willing to bet a harmless phone call won't bother her." Ivor nodded in approval. "All right, I'll ask him to tell Bonnie to callif she can."
