Aveline pulled out her phone. "What are you standing there for? Call the police."
Selena, however, seemed unfazed. "I’ve reported it before, but nothing was stolen, and the security cameras were out of order, so it was pointless."
Aveline frowned. "But it’s too dangerous for you to stay here. You should come to stay at my place."
Selena hesitated. "But... the deposit..."
Aveline’s expression grew stern. "What’s more important, your deposit or your life?"
Selena sighed. "The deposit..."
Ignoring her, Aveline started packing up Selena’s belongings. In no time, she had most of it sorted out.
When she turned around, she saw Selena still organizing her collection of stuffed toys.
Aveline felt a bit exasperated. "You can move those later. Right now, just take what you need."
Selena hugged a large plushie tightly and said, "This is essential. I can’t sleep without it."
Aveline was speechless.
Selena then clutched a plush carrot. "And this one stays by my side, like a fortress of security."
Aveline fell silent again.
She pretended to dial a number. "Hello, psychiatric hospital?"
...
They ended up heading to Maple Garden together.
Aveline handed Selena her suitcase. "Pick any room you like and get settled in. I’m going to start on dinner."
"Got it, rich lady," Selena replied with a grin.
