Follow me around the clock…

The corners of Elspeth’s mouth twitched slightly; the memory of Callum’s unyielding vigilance at the bathroom door flooded back to her.

“It’s fine. Go back. Why follow his orders?”

“Because Mr. Edmund is the one who pays us,” one of them replied.

His words took Elspeth by surprise. She knew they were trying to keep her safe by following her, so she couldn’t get mad at them.

“I’ll pay you triple. Just don’t follow me, alright?”

“We really can’t do that. We can’t disobey Mr. Edmund’s commands. Just let us keep you company.” The black-clad figures were clearly torn.

“Okay, okay.” Elspeth rolled her eyes. “If you insist. But do me a favor, alright? Don’t get in my face unless necessary. Got it?”

The two breathed a collective sigh of relief, nodding in unison. “Understood. We know what we’re doing. Don’t worry.”

Then why won’t you listen to me and go back?

She became a little annoyed. “Alright! Go on! My friend is arriving soon. Just remember, don’t blow your cover.”

“Don’t worry. We won’t be foolish enough to expose ourselves to your boyfriend!”

Boyfriend… Just how much do you know about me?

She rolled their eyes in response. “Suit yourself.”
