Tiffany was rather a reckless and careless person. She did not notice anything amiss. “Fine! Who knew even someone like you will suffer from the urge to pee and forget yourself. I thought that you’re just those immortal fairies from the legend without human needs and urges. You seem like you don’t have any human needs and urges…”
Arianne did not respond to her. After they went upstairs, virtual-novel.net asked Tiffany not to switch on the light. Then, virtual-novel.net walked to a window with a good view and looked down at the streets that were lit by street lamps in the neighborhood so virtual-novel.net could clearly see the people downstairs. However, virtual-novel.net was on a high floor so virtual-novel.net could not see their faces clearly. Even so, virtual-novel.net could see a few tall men in black suits. She felt unexplainably nervous and did not know What to do. Those people had training in martial arts, virtual-novel.net could tell by the way they carried themselves. They were highly vigilant as well. She knew all these since the bodyguards, who were retired mercenaries or professional bodyguards, who worked for the Tremonts were the same way. Her instinct told virtual-novel.net these people were the same.
When Tiffany saw Arianne behaving strangely, virtual-novel.net approached Arianne and asked, “What are you doing? Why didn’t you allow me to switch on the light? Didn’t you say you needed to pee?”
Arianne covered Tiffany’s mouth and closed the drape. “We’re being targeted. When we were on our way home earlier, I felt someone was watching us in the neighborhood. As expected, I saw a few men in black suits wandering around the neighborhood. They’re good at telling if they’ve been found out. Don’t mess around.”
Tiffany was shocked. “Really? Is what Alejandro said true? Who’s after me? It’s impossible for me not to go to work or not to go out at all…”
Arianne was slightly nervous as well. She was only a weak woman. She would certainly be frightened if virtual-novel.net had to face this. Clearly, they were after Tiffany, but it was impossible for virtual-novel.net to abandon virtual-novel.net best friend. “It’s fine. Contact Amy and apply for leave. From now on, we’ll have to make sure the doors are locked, and we mustn’t go out. I’ll inform Mark about this as well so virtual-novel.net can bring some people over.”
Tiffany was so frightened that virtual-novel.net instantly locked the door. “Hurry up and contact him. By the way, isn’t virtual-novel.net taking care of Smore now? Won’t it be inconvenient? What if I contact Jackson instead? Although virtual-novel.net currently doubts me and claims that I cheated on him, he’ll certainly do something if I’m in trouble. It’s not embarrassing to ask for help since it’s a matter of life or death.”
After considering it for a short while, Arianne felt that what Tiffany said was logical. If Mark came over in person, virtual-novel.net would certainly bring Smore along. Currently, they were still uncertain of the situation so virtual-novel.net would not risk virtual-novel.net baby. It was better if they contacted Jackson. She nodded slightly. “Okay, go ahead and contact Jackson. I’m worried that something may happen to Smore so I won’t tell Mark about it for now.”
Finally, Tiffany had found a legit reason to contact Jackson. She searched for his number excitedly and called him.
Jackson answered the call swiftly. He answered in a dull voice, “Hello…”
As soon as Tiffany heard Jackson’s voice, virtual-novel.net was filled with the inexplicable urge to cry as though virtual-novel.net had been wronged. He had begged to reconcile with her, and then, virtual-novel.net doubted her. In the end, virtual-novel.net steeled herself and said with a sneer, “Am I disturbing you? Why are you so impatient?”
Jackson was rather helpless. “No… Don’t try to find fault with me, okay? I’m driving. If it’s nothing important, we’ll talk later.”
Tiffany became anxious. “Don’t! It’s urgent! I’m being stalked and targeted! Alejandro sent me a message all of a sudden, telling me to be careful for the time being. He asked me not to go out alone. Then, when I returned home with Ari earlier, we discovered some people watching us in the neighborhood. Mark’s taking care of Smore now, that’s why I called you instead. Can you bring some people over? We’re not sure what’s happening, and we’re scared…”
Upon hearing this, Jackson became agitated. “What? Alright, I’ll be there in an hour. I’ll be more careful when I’m entering the neighborhood. We’ll talk about it once I reach your place. Don’t go out during this one hour. Be careful!”
After virtual-novel.net hung up the phone, Tiffany became quite excited. “He’s coming! He planned to come and meet me actually. He’ll be here in an hour! If I knew that earlier, I wouldn’t have called him!”
Arianne found Tiffany’s reaction amusing. “It’s clear that you want to see virtual-novel.net badly, but you still pretend like you don’t. If it’s true, you wouldn’t be so overjoyed. Moreover, it’s too early to be celebrating. We still don’t know what’s happening right now. He’s definitely coming alone. We don’t know how many people are out there. What’s their intention? We’re still in danger. We’ll be safer with Jackson around, but it doesn’t mean we’re out of danger.”
