One Night Stand With A Mysterious Male Escort novel Chapter 56

Other than the knocking, no other sounds came from the outside, and it scared the children even more. Even Mrs. Berry’s knife-holding hands were trembling.

Holding a small knife, Charlotte slowly walked over and looked through the gap of the broken door.

At the same time, an eye was staring into the gap from the outside.

When the two eyes spotted each other, both parties started screaming.

“Ahhhh….!” The children screamed along with their mother.

“Call the cops! Quick!” Charlotte hurriedly tried to grab her phone.

“Hold on. Wait a minute. I think it’s Zak.”

Looking through the gap, Mrs. Berry realized it was indeed the security guard, Zak Jones. She promptly opened the door for him.

“Mrs. Berry, you’re at home.” Zak was about to call for backup through his walkie-talk when he saw Mrs. Berry and stopped. “You scared me. I thought something happened to your house.”

“Something did happen. There was a…”

“There was a thief who barged into our house trying to steal something earlier, but together we managed to get rid of him.”

Charlotte interrupted Mrs. Berry on time. She did not want anyone else to know about the chip, or more troubles might arise.

“What? Have you called the cops?” Zak asked as he got worried.

“Let me check if I’ve lost anything before I decide if I’d call the cops or not,” Charlotte said with a smile. Then, she changed the topic. “Zak, does your company offer any service for door fixing?”

“I think you’d need to change a new door.” Zak briefly checked the condition of the door. “We have new doors at the price of four thousand eight hundred. Locks are included too.”

“Four thousand eight hundred?” Charlotte could feel a headache coming on upon hearing the price.

“Are you interested?” Zak queried. “I’ll give you a ten percent discount.”

“Twenty!” Mrs. Berry bargained. “Since we’re neighbors.”

Looking at the kitchen knives in her hands, Zak shuddered and agreed, “All right. Twenty percent off it is.”

“Let’s change the door now, or else we won’t be able to sleep tonight,” Mrs. Berry urged.
