Upon learning the real reason for Owen's visit, Lucinda leaned over to whisper a few words to her friend. After giving her friend a long look, she let her go with Owen, deciding to stick around the shop a bit longer.

"Mom, why don't you take a stroll around the block? Or maybe check out the mall across the street and see if there's anything you need to buy?"

Lucinda was worried that the two mothers would get bored just hanging around the shop. She suggested they go on a little shopping spree.

Fiona responded, "I don't really need anything, but a little window shopping wouldn't hurt. Janice, do you fancy a trip to the supermarket?"

Janice was raring to go, but the Blue family's bodyguards stepped in. One of them said to Lucinda, "Ma'am, even though Pinehurst is safer than Skywatch, we can't be too careless. It's not safe for the lady to go to crowded places."

"Crowded places are a hotbed for troublemakers. It's easy for things to go south."

Taken aback, Lucinda asked, "You guys can't protect us?"

Was the Blue family really in such danger?

"Better safe than sorry."

The bodyguards were extremely cautious. The young master had entrusted them with the lady's safety, and they intended to keep her out of harm's way.

"Lucy, I want to go to the supermarket."

Janice gave her daughter a pitiful look.

She rarely engaged in such down-to-earth activities and was quite excited about the supermarket trip.

Lucinda glanced at the bodyguards, then at her husband. Stefan understood her and said, "I'll go with you. The shop's not busy anyway, and we have staff here."
