Chapter 933
| smiled slightly. "I'm really sorry, but I still have a child at home. | really have to go."
As soon as | said that, | stood up and got prepared to say goodbye.
Jackie looked like he still had things to say, but seeing that we insisted on leaving, there was nothing else he
could do.
After leaving the hotel and getting into the car, Keith looked at a car parked not far behind. He sneered
disdainfully, saying, "What a greenie."
| did not ask anything and turned back to look.
Keith started the car, and so did the car at the back.
"Is Jackie in the car?" | asked.

Keith nodded. "Maybe."
"Do you know anything about this man?"
"Not yet, but we should know something soon."
| raised my hand and rubbed my chin. "The most important thing is to know who the big boss behind him is."
Keith nodded. "Yeah."
Jackie had been trying to worm information out ofjust now, and that was really suspicious.
| asked, "Are they planning to get something out of m e?"
Keith nodded. "If that's really the case, it can only be that they want to get their hands on the box."
After a pause, he asked me, "Have you ever asked about the specific origin of the box?"
| shook my head. "I grew up seeing my mother putting it away in the drawer and never opening it. | thought i t
was a jewelry box, so | never really bothered to pay attention to it."
Keith nodded. "From what Jackie was saying just now, | think he was trying to find out the origin of the box and
who it cfrom.”
| pursed my lips and did not say anything.
We had to investigate these things as guessing would get us nowhere.
The car behind us continued to follow us. Perhaps afraid of being discovered, it was not exactly close to u s.
| glanced back and said to Keith, "It’s unsafe to disclose my address to him. See if you can lose him."
| did not know who Jackie was, after all. Allowing him to discover my house address was simply too dangerous.
Keith nodded and stepped on the accelerator.
He was all too familiar with Salt City, so it did not take long for him to lose Jackie.

When we returned to the villa, Munchkin had already fallen asleep.
Miss Woods had put all the things she prepared downstairs. When she saw that | had returned, she walked over
and said, "Mr. Grant has called several times asking if you've returned. | think he’s worried. Why don’t you call
him back?"
| nodded. | was talking to Keith the whole way just now and forgot to check my phone.
When | took my phone out of my purse to take a look, | realized that my phone had shut down by itself because
it was out of battery.
After going upstairs and returning to my room, | charged my phone before going to wash up.
When | was done washing up, | gave Theo a call.
The call quickly went through, and it seemed as though he had been waiting for my phone call. He asked, "Are «
you lying on the bed already?"
