Chapter 288 Being Targetted
Afterwards, Kate came to George with an identical inquiry. Clearly, George had also gotten the communication, and he stayed silent in Kate’s presence, who couldn’t discern any variance.
Could it be that I was simply being overly suspicious?
Kate reflected inwardly, sensing a weight bearing down on her chest, stirring profound discomfort within her.
She couldn’t dispel the feeling that something bad was about to unfold.
She sat on the sofa in a haze, and just then, Linus called her.
“Kate, what are you up to at Summer Estate? Let me take you out for some fun!”
Linus‘ tone was upbeat, and after a fleeting pause, Kate nodded in agreement, saying, “Sure.”
She also felt compelled to clear her thoughts by going out. Otherwise, she sensed an emotional barrier within her, stirring both unease and agitation.
Maybe she was just overly anxious about Eric.
He was currently on a business assignment in Belford, and there seemed to be no imminent threat in Haldoria.
Kate comforted herself with these thoughts, and shortly after, Linus arrived to collect her, accompanied by George in the car.
George had taken on the role of Kate’s bodyguard, closely monitoring her every action.
George not only had to guarantee Kate’s security but also had to ensure she remained ignorant of Eric’s location.
Eric’s actions posed a massive danger. Kate needed to remain oblivious!
Linus escorted Kate straight to a bar.
George stepped out of the car, his face impassive as he surveyed the lively bar before him. He glanced at Linus with a smile that lacked sincerity in his eyes, asking, “Mr. Linus, is it prudent to bring Madam here?”
Linus rubbed his scalp, pondering. “Where’s the harm? We’re all young people, we should enjoy ourselves and relax!”
George tightened his mouth, a flicker of intensity gleaming in his gaze. “What if Madam encounters danger in this place?”
Linus glanced at George with astonishment, thoroughly perplexed. “What danger could she encounter in a bar? I’m her brother, and you’re constantly by her side–how could there be any risk? Are you
oncerned Frir might become inslmic once he learnct”
Linus‘ complexion turned grim. “I’m her brother. How could I possibly harm her?”
