“That’s okay. I don’t want to be a burden,” Emily said with a hint of shyness on her face.
“It’s fine! Let’s go shopping; it’s my treat. You can buy whatever you want!” Hazel offered generously as she was obviously in a good mood.
Sheldon hadn’t seen Hazel smiling so brightly in a really long time, so he tried to persuade Emily. “Miss Jackson, please stay. I rarely see Hazel this happy.” Then, he took out a card and placed it in Hazel’s hand. “There’s no limit, so buy as much as you want!”
Overjoyed, Hazel took the black card from him. “Thank you, Sheldon!”
Emily gulped, trying to hide the delight she was feeling.
Since Hazel had said that it was her treat, she could not keep on rejecting her offer.
“We’ll go shopping after dinner, and we can buy some supplements for my dad.”
Emily agreed as her face split into a grin.
Meanwhile, Lee was driving to a restaurant for dinner.
However, he noticed that someone was tailing them.
Lee pursed his lips, then called out, “Janet, it looks like someone’s following us.”
Janet lazily opened her eyes and looked into the rearview mirror, then laughed. “It doesn’t just look like it!” Someone was indeed following them.
“What should we do?”
Janet raised an eyebrow. She didn’t recall having any enemies in Yobril!
How strange!
She narrowed her eyes. “It’s all right. Just go to the restaurant.”
The car that was following Janet reached the five-star hotel where they were having dinner.
The two men in the car sighed, feeling distressed. “D*mn it! Where did they go?”
“Tsk. I reckon she thinks we’re bad guys!”
“Hmm. Let’s go into the hotel and look for her!”
“Oh, how much do we have to suffer?”
With that, the two men got out of the car.
They knew Janet very well, so they went straight to the place with the least people.
“Ugh! F*ck! Where did they go?”
“Sh*t! What should we do? I don’t want to go to Africa to mine coal!”
Just when they thought they had lost her, a figure suddenly drifted down the stairwell and stopped directly in front of them.
The two men were startled. After they got a clear glimpse of who it was, they breathed a sigh of relief. “Oh, my God! You scared us!”
“Miss Jackson, don’t be so cheeky! We can’t do our work well like this!”
When she was in the car, Janet had wondered who could possibly be following her.
When they got out of the car, her stalkers turned out to be White Python and Black Python.
She gave them a knowing look, and a hint of annoyance flashed across her eyes. “So, you’re stalking me now? Is it fun? Did Mason send you guys?”
They were speechless.
What? Does Miss Jackson actually think that? Young Master Mason never told us to follow her! Did we look like we were stalking her just now? Work habit maybe? It must be a work habit.
Black Python and White Python were utterly embarrassed. In order to avoid a serious misunderstanding, Black Python said, “No, no. Young Master Mason asked White Python and me to protect you…”
Who knew that they would end up mucking up the job, sneaking around like thieves?
Just when the atmosphere was beginning to calm down, the phone in Janet’s pocket rang.
She took out her phone and looked down to see that it was a message from Mason.
Without hesitating, Janet opened her Messenger.
Mason said: ‘Have you seen White Python and Black Python? I sent them to protect you. If anything happens, remember to tell me immediately!’
Janet was at a loss for words.
Black Python and White Python had turned the job of protecting her into a stalking operation. At this point, they had just greatly embarrassed themselves!
