Chapter 853
“Go. Don’t run off.” One of the bodyguards followed Esme while the other went to the washroom.
Once inside the supermarket, Esme picked up quite a few things while constantly peeking outside.
Suddenly, when she saw a black Bentley driving into the neighborhood, she quickly paid for the basket worth of
items.
Esme hastened on the way back as she calculated the amount of time needed for the car to park so that she could
take the ride on the elevator.
She was worried that the two bodyguards would become suspicious, so she said, “I’m having a stomachache and I
need to go to the washroom, so I need to go back to the apartment right now.”
The two bodyguards didn’t say a word. It’s good for them if they were to return early.
Esme pressed the button to call for the elevator. When the door opened, she encountered the man who had just
parked his car in the parking lot in the basement.

Jason frowned deeply and then saw the two bodyguards behind Esme.
“Britney? Why are you here?”
“Oh, I have an apartment here. I’m just staying here,” Esme explained.
Jason looked at the two bodyguards. “And them?”
“My friend sent them to protect me. I caused some ruckus when I went to Mr. Maxwell’s store to buy something and
somehow ended up on the internet. Some of the reporters are looking for me because of it. My friend’s worried
that something will happen to me.”
Jason stared at the bodyguards’ clothes and then looked at their logos.
The two bodyguards instantly felt uneasy and removed the logos.
Esme then walked into the elevator and smiled very politely. She said to the two bodyguards, ” Come in, you two.”
The two bodyguards walked in with their heads lowered without saying a word.
Jason asked, “Who are you staying with, then?”
“I’m staying here by myself.”
Jason looked at the two bodyguards, and Esme caught onto his sight. She quickly said, “My friend arranged another
apartment for them.”
“Is that apartment yours? Or your friend’s?” Jason asked.
“My friend and I don’t differentiate things so clearly,” Esme said as if she was embarrassed.
She pressed the number for the floor that she was on. It was four floors away from the floor that Jason was staying
at.
When she saw which floor Jason was heading to, she pretended to be disappointed and said, ” If only you were on
the same floor as me, Jason. That way, we can visit each other frequently.” “No need for that,” Jason said coldly.
Esme then said with a smile, “Since we’re all friends with Sally, and we’ve already had a meal before, we should be
at least acquainted, right? Maybe we can be friends?”
There was a sneer in Jason’s eyes. “I’m sorry, but I’m busy.”
“Fine. I won’t force it then.” Once she reached the floor that she was at, Esme waved at Jason. ” See you again.”

At this moment, he could suddenly understand why Fia hated that woman so much.
“Go in now, Miss Thomas!” The two bodyguards said with dark expressions on their faces, worried that she was
going to start something again.
“I know. I’ll go in right now. Can you please help me bring my snacks in?” Esme entered the apartment first. The
two bodyguards looked at each other. They felt like they shouldn’t have let her go downstairs.
Just now, Jason looked at them suspiciously. Could it be that he had figured something out?
Before Jason entered his place, he instinctively looked at the unit opposite his. That was the apartment unit that
Echo left for her daughter, Fia.
He was worried that Fia would suddenly come here and encounter that fake woman.
Once he was inside the apartment, he couldn’t help sending a text message.
Fia felt quite lively for the whole day. After dinner, she went over to Tyler’s home and chatted with Mary about
raising children.
When she received Jason’s text, she instinctively thought to herself, ‘Why is he asking me something like that? Did
he hear about some rumors?
