When The Phone Rings

Chapter 66

"Hide...!"@@@@

At Heeju's urgent sign, the children quickly ducked into the bushes.

The headlights of a military jeep swept across their hiding spot before moving on.

Haah...

Heeju wiped the cold sweat from her brow and let out a quiet sigh of relief.

Two months had passed since her arrival in Argan.

Not being able to speak meant they couldn’t voice their protests. It also meant they were often the first to be subjugated. Heeju, more than anyone, understood the weight of that reality.

That was why she had started teaching international sign language.

Her days as a teacher were hectic, and searching for Baek Saeon felt increasingly out of reach.

Occasionally, she would ask the facility director, who went to town for supplies, to inquire about a handsome East Asian journalist.

But each time, the director would return, shaking his head apologetically.

At first, she would cry, consumed by disappointment. But over time, even despair became familiar, her resilience strengthening like a well-worn muscle.
