Jessica spoke sincerely and even shed some tears. The security guard knew her.
Although Jessica was a superstar, she didn't put on airs and was very polite to others when entering
and leaving the community. In addition, she was very beautiful....
The security guard compromised. "Then let me ask about the situation first...."
After that, the security guard took out his phone and made a phone call.
As the security guard wasn't paying attention to her, Jessica looked ahead and considered if she
should rush inside.
Just as she rolled up her sleeves and was about to run inside, she heard the security guard ask the
person on the other end of the phone, "The fire has been extinguished? Are you sure? Then I'll let the
owners go back to their apartments..."
Jessica breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the security guard's words.
Everything should be fine since the fire had been extinguished.
Carl should also be fine.
The security guard hung up the phone and comforted Jessica, "Miss Jessica, it's fine now. You can go
home and see your dog."
"Alright, thank you."
Jessica smiled and thanked him.
The security guard blushed and scratched his head. "I still have to go on patrol. I have to go. Goodbye,
Miss Jessica."
"Bye."
Jessica watched the security guard leave. Then she took out her phone and called Carl, but Still no one
answered.
Jessica decided to go to his room to find him.
Just now, Kalyan had told her Carl's apartment number.
When Jessica walked into the community, there were neighbors who were also walking in.
As they walked, they discussed as well. "I don't know who it was. This kind of thing happened on the
first day of the New Year...."
Jessica walked quietly and did not participate in the discussion. Her mind was full of thoughts about
Carl and she was anxious.
Soon, she arrived at the elevator entrance.
The elevator descended and a man in a fireman's uniform walked out. He was wearing a helmet and a
mask, and his face was covered completely.
Jessica glanced at him inadvertently and was surprised.
The person's figure looked somewhat familiar.
The others had entered the elevator. When the man in uniform passed by her, Jessica could smell
cigarette and the familiar scent of man's perfume....
Jessica's gaze fell on the man in uniform. When the elevator door closed, and she had no time to care
about it.
Her gaze followed the man as he walked out of the hall. Only when the man was about to reach the
door did Jessica faintly say, "Stop."
Her tone was neither anxious nor slow, and there was a faint hint of reprimand in it.
The man in uniform continued to walk as if he didn’t hear her. He was still pretending, thinking she
didn't recognize him.
Jessica sneered in disdain and said in a harsher tone, "Carl, I told you to stop!"
The man who was about to walk out of the hall was stiffened and stopped in place. He looked stiff and
conflicted, as if he wanted to walk out but didn't dare to.
Jessica walked straight over and stood in front of Carl expressionlessly. "Why didn't you answer my
call?"
Carl was wearing a helmet and a mask, and his head was bowed. Jessica could not see his face, and
only heard him say in a muffled voice, "I left my phone in the room...."
"Were you so afraid of death? You didn't even take your phone when you ran out?"
Jessica realized something was wrong as soon as she finished speaking.
"Wait a minute. Where did you get this uniform? Why is there the smell of cigarette on your body?"
Carl said, "Of course, it was given to me by a fireman...."
"Was it your apartment that caught fire?" Jessica looked at Carl with her eyes wide open.
She asked tentatively, "Did you set your own apartment on fire while cooking?"
