“He wasn’t listening and was running his
mouth, so he’s just doing his job.”

The Walkers wouldn’t hire people who didn’t
listen.
Jake hesitated for a moment and didn’t look
further.
I had paper in my mouth, and I couldn’t talk.
I tried to move my body and make noise.
I’m here!
Find me!
Suddenly, Jake turned around and came back.
He didn’t come to me, he went to Ashley, who
was in another room.
He had someone pick her up, “What
happened to her?”
Then, he asked, “Where’s the guy who was
with her?”
He must remember what I had said on the
phone.
After the phone call, my phone had died.
He couldn’t find me.
Brittany hesitated. “We didn’t see any quv.”

She asked, “Who is the guy? Maybe we can
help you find him.”
But Jake didn’t respond.
To protect me, the Walkers acted like they
didn’t know me.
Even for the rescue, only Jake’s secretary had
come.
He told them to take Ashley away.
This time, he didn’t hesitate and left.
I managed to reach a chair and knocked it
over.
The chair made a noise.
Jake paused, “What was that?”
The bodyguard held me down, and Brittany
stepped in front of me, smiling.
“It’s nothing, I just hit the chair. Have a good
day.”
“If there’s anything you need, let me know.
The Landry’s will always be your most reliable
partner!”
Jake acted coldly and left without a word.
Brittany was stunned.
Jake was usually quiet but kind to her, but
today he was cold.
She didn’t know that was only because of me.
Now that I had chosen Ashley, she was
nothing.
Brittany turned around and kicked me. “Why
are you making noise? Do you think you can
get Mr. Walker’s attention and save you?”
“It’s because of you that Ashley was taken! If
it affects my marriage, you will regret it!”
She kicked me.
I could tell she was desperate, but she still
believed that she would marry into the
Walkers.
Even though my throat was filled with blood, I
laughed. “Brittany, what’s the use of getting
mad at me?”
“If you want to know who lake is going to
く
marry, you should ask him yourself. While
you’re at it, go ask Brad if he’s really a
Walker. Otherwise, you’re gonna get
scammed!”
Brittany yelled, “Brad is real!”
I smiled. “Is that right? Why did Jake not even
look at him?”
