Hilla didn't care about Margaret's muttering. She kept waiting for a reply from Bruce.
However, more than ten minutes later, Hilla did not receive any message from Bruce. She sent more messages, "Are you busy now? Can you send me a message after you're done? I just want to know that you're safe."
Although she didn't know whether he had received it, Hilla was waiting with anticipation.
Orlenna sighed helplessly. She knew that Hilla must be worried about Bruce. However, it wasn't convenient for her to contact Bruce in person. The South Country was so chaotic that someone might lose his there if he was not careful enough.
"Hilla, it's getting late. Go back to your room and rest early."
Instead, Orlenna could only persuade Hilla to rest first.
Maybe when Hilla woke up the next day, Bruce would call back.
