Lizbeth was really worried that Oliver would go around telling everyone about Jared being her boyfriend. I don’t know how I’d face Josephine if she hears the rumors!
“That won’t be necessary. Let’s just treat this money as payment for letting me stay over at your place. I can’t just eat and sleep here for free, after all,” Jared said as he grabbed an apple from the table and began munching away.
“You plan on sleeping here? I just had a discussion with General Long earlier. We won’t hand you over to the Jantz family for the time being, but they’re definitely searching everywhere for you right now. I’ll arrange for you to stay in a hotel for a while and see if I can get you acquainted with Phoenix. This way, you might just stand a chance at survival.”
Jared felt a little speechless when he saw Lizbeth trying so hard to save him, but he was still touched by her efforts.
“Knowing how powerful the Jantz family is, they’ll be able to find me no matter which hotel I stay in. It’s actually a lot safer for me to stay here instead,” he said with a smile.
