It was, of course, Anthony.

With his lips curved up into a smirk, he asked, "So you don't miss me?" Maria fervently shook her head.

"That's not what I meant. How did you get through the security here?"

This estate was a huge property that sprawled over several acres of land, but with only one entrance that was heavily guarded. No one was allowed to enter the estate without explicit permission from old Mrs. Jenkins.

“It was easy.” Anthony's Lips spread wider into a bright smile. "It seems that your security guards aren't being sufficiently paid. ALL I had to do was offer them a bit of money to let me in."

A bit of money? Maria knew that it must have been a large amount to bribe the security guards of the Jenkins family.

“Besides, I had a good excuse for wanting to enter," Anthony added, spotting the confusion on Maria's face.

“What is it?" Maria asked, tilting her head.

Anthony answered seriously, "I said I was a courier and I was delivering a package for you."

“Uh-huh.”

Raising her eyebrows in disbelief, Maria Looked Anthony up and down. His physique was comparable to that of an international super supermodel's, and his custom-tailored suit and high-end shoes all made him look sharp and wealthy. Besides, anyone who wasn't blind would notice the Rolex watch on his wrist.

What kind of idiot would believe that this man was a courier? If Anthony actually rode a bicycle on the street, people would definitely wonder if he was shooting a movie or something.

With a frown, Maria pressed, "Then... Where is the package?"

Patting his own chest, Anthony said, “Right here. I am the package for you."

Maria was dumbfounded.

What kind of package was this, which couldn't be eaten or used?

“Are you here to see me?" After hesitating for a moment, Maria took a seat on the armchair next to Anthony.

It was only at this moment that she regretted not buying a sofa instead. Although the armchair was big and spacious for one person, it was too cramped for two people to sit together. She had to squeeze herself right next to Anthony.

“Well, knowing the Jenkins family might not treat you well, how can I not worry about you? I wanted to see you in person and make sure that you're okay."

After a short pause, Anthony pointed to the bed.

“Actually, I've also brought a hibernation pod for you. It's the latest version. It's much smaller than the former one, and can be directly fitted onto your bed. If people who don't know what a hibernation pod see your bed, they'll just think that it's a special kind of mattress.

The existing bed in Maria's room was something that she had recently ordered off the Internet, but it had turned out to be just a bed frame.

As if reading her mind, Anthony had brought the hibernation pod for her.

“How Long are you going to stay?"
