Chapter 250 The taxi glided into the underground garage, and Elizabeth stepped out, walking briskly toward the elevator.

Her steps faltered when two unfamiliar figures—a man and a woman—stepped into her path, blocking the way.

Startled, Elizabeth looked up at the pair.

They appeared to be in their early thirties, both wearing disarming smiles.

The woman spoke first, her tone warm and reassuring.

“Hello, Ms.

Elizabeth.

Ruby sent us to pick you up.

There are Asher’s fans upstairs and downstairs.

It’s not safe for you to go home right now.

Facing them directly could make things worse.”

Elizabeth instinctively took a step back, her guard up.

“How did you know I was coming through the garage? Ruby knows I don’t own a car.”

The woman chuckled lightly, brushing off the question.

“We couldn’t have predicted it.

But Nathan Films provides cars for its stars, so we assumed you’d use one of those.” She gestured toward a sleek black Lexus parked nearby.

Due to a previous collaboration, Nathan Films had replaced most of the stars’ cars with this brand.

The man stepped forward with a polite smile.

“Asher contacted Ruby.

She’s handling a PR crisis.

We were sent to ensure your safety.

We couldn’t reach you on our way here.

So one of us waited on the first floor, and the other near your apartment.”

Hearing Asher’s name eased some of Elizabeth’s tension.

She nodded slightly.
