Chapter 1321 Trespassing
“A group of bodyguards in suits appeared out of nowhere and gave me a heart attack before I could see anything inside. All of them were armed, too. If I hadn’t acted fast enough and ran out of there, I wouldn’t be here in front of you two. Ugh. This place is f*cking terrifying!”
Kisa looked at him in surprise. “Really? How many bodyguards were there? Did you see clearly?”
“Ten, at least. All of them looked big and ferocious,” Kelvin said in a deep voice. “What do you think is in there? The security’s so tight. Could the Mullens be hiding some kind of treasure inside?”
“You’re right,” Kisa answered subconsciously.
Kelvin froze. Then, he looked at Kisa curiously. “Really? Mr. Mullen Sr. probably already has everything he could ever want, right? I wonder what kind of treasure would make him take such strict security measures?”
“I don’t know.” Kisa shook her head. “Mr. Mullen Sr. admitted that there’s something precious in there, and he even warned me not to go inside without permission. Otherwise, there’d be consequences.”
“Tsk, tsk… I’m sure that he’s hiding something in there.”
“Right. I think so too.”
As the two of them chatted happily with each other, Gilbert realized that he was once again the unwanted person in that conversation.
His face darkened. Then, he said in a low voice, “Let’s head back.”
Kelvin paused and immediately nodded. “Y–Yes. We should go back now. I’ve got to sleep my fear away.”
He looked at Gilbert and continued, “W–Which direction should we go? I’ve been to the same place thrice before I broke into the prohibited area. Boo–hoo…”
Kisa smiled awkwardly. “You’ve been to Ms. Mullen’s place for three times now, right? Why would you still be lost?”
Kelvin was left speechless.
Then, Gilbert said casually, “It’s nothing surprising. He’s never had a good sense of direction.”
Kisa looked at Kelvin, surprised.
She had no idea that Kelvin’s sense of direction was so poor despite growing up together with him.
“What if he gets lost when he’s on a date with his girlfriend?”
