Chapter 336: Life and Death Hang in the Balance (14)

This made Elijah Smith hesitate for a moment, then he nodded, "Okay," he stepped forward, put Isabel Smith's slippers next to Percy Stanton's feet, then raised his hand, took Ella Adams's bag from Percy's hands, turned around, faced Ella, and said, "Um..."

Elijah paused, then asked, "I'm sorry, what's your name?"

"Ella Adams."

"Miss Adams, let me escort you home."

Ella Adams gave Elijah a polite smile, without saying anything further. Instead, she turned her head to Percy, waved her hand and said, "I'll go ahead then."

"Alright, feel free to call me anytime if you need anything." Percy Stanton turned his head and spoke softly to Ella Adams.

Ella Adams responded with a simple nod, then turned around and went towards the elevator.

Elijah quickly followed a few steps behind her and, gentlemanly, he pressed the elevator button first.

When the elevator door opened, and Elijah Smith and Ella Adams entered, Percy Stanton then picked up Isabel Smith and went to her apartment.
