    It was then the door of the condominium apartment was opened again. This time Ss brought in two


    hunky, muscr bodyguards.


    Ss said to her coldly, “They are here to protect you. They will take turns to guard your door. If you


    need anything, you can always ask them to provide them for you.”


    Esme clenched her teeth and thanked him profusely. Deep in her heart, however, she was cursing him


    and Conrad non-stop. She did not think that Conrad would not only refuse to see her but also send


    someone to keep an eye on her.


    “Mr. Ss, I have miscarried my baby recently. I forgot to bring my medici-”


    Before she was able to finish her words, Ss tossed a packet of medicine on the table.


    “This is the medicine prescribed by the hospital. Remember to take them as the doctor ordered.”


    “Thank you, Mr. Ss.” Esme thanked him again.


    But it was not over yet. Ss looked her in the eye and said, “Hand over your phone.”


    Esme was stunned hearing this. “Why should I give you my phone? No, you can’t have it.”


    “Do you want to be found by Peter Hall?” Ss asked.


    After hesitating for two seconds, Esme said, “I won’t ept his phone call.”


    “What a load of bullsh*t! I don’t believe you.” Ss rolled his eyes at her before asking sarcastically,


    “Why aren’t you cooperating? Are you trying to set us up?”


    “No! I truly am on your side! Do you know why Peter wants to hurt Sis Fia so much? It’s because Uncle


    Parker had wronged his family a long time ago. He wants to avenge his family!”


    Esme continued providing more details about Peter, fearing that Ss still did not believe her. “That


    incident was rather famous back then. You’ll definitely find news about it if you begin researching the


    rtionship between the Halls and Parkers.”


    Ss listened to her without uttering a word. He already knew about this. Conrad had ordered. him to


    investigate this a long time ago. Although Conall had spent some effort in wiping off traces of this


    incident from the media, it only took Ss two days to uncover the news about it.


    Conrad had given an order that if Britney told the truth she could keep her phone.


    “Fine. I won’t confiscate your phone. But you’ll need to hand over your phone’s sim card.”

    Esme was speechless when she heard this.


    “Do you not trust me at all?”


    “It’s unwise to underestimate a foe. Peter Hall has aplicated background and is very smart. It will


    take very little effort for him to find you via GPS using your phone number.”


    Then Ss said to her cynically, “Shouldn’t you be more cooperative if you want Mr. Maxwell to protect


    you?”


    “Fine. I’ll hand over my phone’s sim card.” Esme was not hiding anything in her phone so she was not


    really afraid of handing it over to him. It was just that she felt unreconciled to see them not trust her so


    much.


    The number that she had been using to send anonymous messages to Fia was still well hidden. After


    Ss left, Esme took some time to linger in the apartment before opening the door. The bodyguards


    were staying on guard on each side of the door.


    “Do you need something, Miss Thomas?” the bodyguards asked as they gave her a cold stare.


    Frightened by their intimidating presence, Esme quickly closed the door. She used the phone number


    that Ss provided her to call Conrad.


    At Maxwell Corporation…


    Conrad stared at the screen of his ringing phone for a few seconds before receiving the call impatiently.


    “Hello? What is it?” He knew this number was used by Esme at the moment.


    “Mr. Maxwell, why didn’t youe and meet me? Don’t you want to know about Peter? I…”


    “I’m busy!” Conrad curtly interjected and hung up the phone.


    Esme was furious! However, after recalling the damage Peter had caused to Maxwell


    Corporation’s reputation, she finally calmed down.


    She was waiting for Conrad to go to her after he was done with his work.


    “Where is she?!” Peter yelled at the doctors and nurses after realizing that Esme was missing.


    “Where did you hide her? Where?! Give her back to me!”

    “Mister, we truly don’t know where your girlfriend has gone to.”


    The doctors and nurses were trying to calm Peter down.


    When Peter was about to call the police, he received a message on his phone. It was from Esme’s


    phone number.


    Just as he wanted to get someone to track the phone’s GPS, a call came from another number. “Hello,


    is this Mr. Hall?”
