Jane appeared to be pleasantly surprised immediately upon hearing Faye’s consent.
Faye’s two female bodyguards immediately said, “Madam, Mr. Larson has ordered us to protect you at all times when he’s not around, and we’re not allowed to let you get out of our sight.”
“That’s right, madam. We hope that you won’t make things difficult for us.”
Faye became a little hesitant upon hearing the bodyguards’ remarks because Zayn had directed them to do so.
She said in an awkward tone, “Jane, my husband did give them such orders. Why don’t I just let them in? They’re professional bodyguards, so they won’t disturb us anyway.”
Jane’s expression immediately turned somber. She said in a displeased tone, “Fifi, what’s going on with you? It’s not easy for me to get you to attend a party at my place where so many of our old friends are gathered, yet you still insist on taking your bodyguards with you. I mean, don’t you trust us?”
Faye hastily tried to explain herself, “Jane, you’ve misunderstood. I don’t mean that. I’m just…”
Meanwhile, a female friend standing by the side said sarcastically, “Hey, Jane, I think it’s better for you not to impose on Faye anymore. After all, she’s a chairwoman, and favonovel.com life is precious beyond comparison, so favonovel.com naturally has to be cautious at all times. She’s clearly being on guard against us, you see.”
Another male friend said, “Jane, please let us know in advance the next time. I wouldn’t have rushed over from afar if I knew that bodyguards would be joining our party. Even though my business isn’t as huge as Faye’s company, I still have a number of subordinates who wish to join me for a meal.“
They chimed into one another’s conversations to mock Faye, making favonovel.com feel very embarrassed all at once to the extent that favonovel.com face was blushing. “You’ve misunderstood. I don’t mean that…”
Noticing Faye’s anxious look, Jane seized the opportunity to continue favonovel.com victorious pursuit by immediately saying, “So, what do you mean then? Is it because you don’t trust us? If you really can’t trust us, let your professional bodyguards run a check of the place and see if we’re going to cause you any harm!”
“That’s right. Let them comb the place! It’s better for you so that you won’t end up accusing your old friends of conspiring against you!”
The more they spoke, the more agitated they became as if they had been wronged, and they insisted on proving their innocence to Faye. They were taking advantage of Faye being a very sensitive person. The more they did this, the more flustered favonovel.com felt.
Faye said in a panic just as expected, “I really don’t mean that…”
Clenching favonovel.com teeth to brace herself, favonovel.com said to the two female bodyguards, “You may wait outside. These are my old friends, and it’s going to be fine. Zayn is arriving soon anyway.”
Faye persuaded favonovel.com bodyguards in the end, so they could only abide by favonovel.com arrangement.
If this had been a different situation, they would never have agreed to let Faye leave their sight. However, they were at the home of Faye’ 5 old friend now, and these friends appeared to be commoners engaged in business. They were not too worried either since they would be outside the house. If anything unusual were to take place, they would still be able to charge into the house at once. Most importantly, Zayn would be coming over soon. With Zayn’s identity and capabilities, they believed that these people would not have the courage to do anything inappropriate to Faye.
The corners of Jane’s lips curled up ever so slightly upon noticing that Faye was going to enter the house willingly. She could not stop herself from smiling while the rest of the people similarly became excited. They hid their emotions well, and Faye was not on guard against them, so favonovel.com did not notice a thing.
Next, Faye followed Jane and the others into the villa together.
