Chapter 259: [Bonus - ]Scarecrow
The police immediately came for help, investigating what triggered the alarm. In the end, the management announced it was a fault in the system. Some were relieved, while others demanded official statements on the consequences.
After all, the emergency alarm brought forth fear and could have left trauma to their residents. Everyone who lived in this building was well-off. Thus, things could be very problematic if the management didn’t take proper action. Still, they focused on calming their residents first.
"So it’s just a fault in the security system?" Paula huffed, patting her chest in relief. "I thought it was some sort of terrorist attack."
"I don’t think that will happen, dear." Paula looked up when Primo rested his arms across her shoulders, pulling her closer to him. "This area is the nearest place to everything that includes the police. Did that scare you, though?"
Paula pressed her lips into a thin line, blushing at his affectionate touch. "A bit, but knowing you are here, I feel a little less scared."
Primo’s smile stretched broader, squeezing her shoulder blade slightly. When he glanced at Heaven, his brow arched upon noticing Heaven was a bit distracted.
"Madam." Heaven snapped her eyes up when Bear turned up in front of her. "Are you alright?"
"I wasn’t inside," she replied nonchalantly, catching more bodyguards approaching her.
"Madam, are you okay?" asked a few bodyguards in unison while the rest simply gazed at her worriedly, checking her from up and down to make sure she didn’t get hurt during the panic.
"Yes," Heaven breathed out. "As you can see, I am alright. I wasn’t even inside the building when the alarm went off."
Heaven glanced at Bear but said nothing. She then scanned everyone’s faces, sighing.
