"Juliet, can you hear me?" Hearing her not speak, Isaac said louder, "Don't be afraid! Since I called you, it's surely because I don't want to harm you." Only when she heard Isaac's normal voice did she cto her senses.
She furrowed her brows and said coldly, "Isaac, don't pretend to be mysterious. It's pointless." "I'm not trying to be mysterious. We'll meet tonight, and you'll find out what I need to tell you. Let's meet at the place we ate last night. My treat. How about that?" Isaac said. "Don't worry, I won't dare cause any trouble in public. By then, if you want to leave, you can leave anytime." "Let's see if I'm busy or not tonight!" Juliet did not want to talk to him, so she hung up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter she hung up, Isaac sent another message, [Tonight at seven. I'll be waiting for you.] Juliet placed her phone down. She had completely lost her appetite. She wondered about what Isaac had meant when he told her that someone was looking for her.
Who was looking for her? Had she been exposed? When was she exposed? When Elliot had sent sof his men to perform a background check on her had she not managed to hide it from them? If Elliot had found out about something, he would have done something.
The night before when she was eating with Elliot, he did not even look at her much, so Elliot surely did not suspect her of anything.
It was even more unlikely that it was Avery. After all, Avery had hired her and given her tasks to perform. She barely cared about the things Juliet got up to.
That day, Avery did not cinto the office and neither did she say anything to her. If Avery suspected her, she would approach Juliet herself.
Therefore, the person that Isaac said was looking for her was neither Elliot nor Avery.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWho could it be? After tidying her lunch box and throwing it into the bin outside, she took her phone and headed to an empty spot.
She found the old woman's number and called her.
"Grandma, how have you and Irene been? Did anyone clook for you? Is Irene acting out of the ordinary in school?" Juliet asked softly.
"We're doing well! No one clooking for us. Irene is doing well in school. After the incident, her classmate's started playing with her," said the old woman. "Madam, why did you suddenly ask this? Has something happened?" Juliet said, "Elliot's new assistant toldsomething weird today. He said that someone was looking for me. From his tone, I feel like he knows something." "Who is Elliot's new assistant? How could he know anything? Then, does Elliot know about it?" "I don't think Elliot knows about it. He has recently hired this assistant. The person he is referring to must be someone else," Juliet said. "I'm going to meet him tonight and see what's going on." The old woman grew instantly afraid. "Madam, don't go. What if you're in danger? Why don't we leave? Whether you're being watched, or Irene and I are being watched, this place isn't safe anymore." "Right now, someone is looking for me. As long as I don't go looking for you two, you all should be safe, Juliet said in a low voice. "Don't let Irene go to school tomorrow Wait for my notice tonight." The old woman agreed. "Madam, you have to be careful. If something is not right, leave immediately. Don't go up against those people. This isn't Ylore. If anything were to el happen to you, I'm just an old lady. I won't be able to get anyone to help you." "Grandma, don't worry. I don't think he wants to harm me. If he did, he would not have toldanything." After Juliet calmed down, she no longer felt that nervous anymore.
"Madam, be careful." "Hmm." Avery and Robert arrived at the hotel for Lilith's and Ben's wedding rehearsal.
