Frances paused and looked at Katherine, “What’s wrong?”
Katherine wasn’t sure about it either. She nodded, “I can’t tell what’s going on. Let’s find a place to take a seat. I need to make a call then.”
As Katherine was pregnant and had been set up before, Frances dared to take no risk. So they hurried to walk away.
Both of them entered a cafe in a mall. Frances looked around and said, “Is someone following us?”
Katherine didn’t respond. Instead, she took out her phone.
But she didn’t call Marshall as he was now working. Besides, though she noticed the whole thing, she still couldn’t tell if her intuition worked this time.
What was more, it only worried Marshall if he knew that.
So Katherine actually called Kyle.
Soon, Kyle answered the phone with a delighted voice, “Kathy, do you miss me?”
Katherine nodded, “Yes. Would you like to come to meet me? I am here with Frances. We are waiting for you.”
Kyle paused out of surprise, “Are you guys hanging out? Where are you?”
Katherine then shared him their location in Facebook.
But hearing that, Kyle seemed to hesitate, “Emmm, I don’t think I should cut in your shopping time. As a guy, I might feel embarrassed if following you into a shop for women’s clothing only.”
“Come on, we have finished shopping. Just come and have a chat. Then come to my house and we may have a nice dinner together. We fancy someone to have a chitchat together.”
As a social guy, Kyle agreed after a few seconds of consideration. Then he told her to wait and he would be here soon.
After hanging up the phone, Katherine looked outside, still feeling uneasy.
Frances was also rendered nervous. She looked around again and again, “So you called Kyle here to be our security guard?”
Katherine ordered a cup of cocoa and a cup of coffee, then she said, “I am not sure. But I saw a guy snap pictures of me outside the elevator just now.”
Frances was stunned and approached to stare at her, “Perhaps he was enthralled by your charm.”
Katherine showed a serious expression, “Stop kidding.”
Frances nodded, “Alright, alright…so we may just stay here. We don’t know who are spying us. Now we need to stay cautious. Especially you!”
Katherine licked her own lips, “It feels awful.”
Now she was indeed feeling bothered and worried as she got tailed even during a simple hang-out.
Frances sighed, “Well, I think you should tell Marshall about it so that he can catch that guy tailing us and find the one behind.”
Katherine smacked her lips, “But I am not sure if I am mistaken.”
She was worried if she got herself in persecutory delusion because of the experience last time.
Frances nodded after consideration, “Maybe. You are right about that.”
Before long, Kyle showed up.
His glowing golden necklace almost dazzled Katherine.
As soon as he saw Katherine, he walked in and sat beside her with joy.
Then he looked at Frances, “Madam, you got so many stuffs?”
There were shopping bags all around them—next to the chairs and also on the ground.
Frances sighed, “Well, shopaholics.”
After finishing the cup of cocoa, Katherine looked outside and saw the guy who had snapped pictures of her.
It seemed that he still didn’t find Katherine as he was looking around everywhere.
Katherine hurried to hide herself and said to Kyle, “Look at the guy I point at. Tell me if there is something fishy with him. I think he has been tailing me.”
