Jared frowned in disbelief. “I'm really a resident here. I even have a key to the house!” Jared exclaimed as he took out a key from his pocket.
That was the key that was given to Jared by William. It had the crest of Dragon Bay in gold on it. Because of how exquisite the key looked, the security guard did not doubt its authenticity.
After taking a closer look at the key, the security guard sized Jared up once more. “Hey, where did you get this key from? It's a key to the mansion on top of the mountain in Dragon Bay. This mansion is the most expensive of all the properties here. Since it was purchased by Mr. Sullivan, how did this key end up in your hands?”
Jared was shocked upon hearing that. Wow! The mansion William gave to me is the most expensive of them all? What a gift!
“Indeed, Mr. Sullivan gave it to me,” Jared answered truthfully.
“Nonsense! Why would he give it to you?
You must've either stolen it or found it on the ground somewhere, am I right?” the security guard shouted suspiciously. He then waved for a few more of his fellow security guards. “Keep your eyes on them! I need to make a phone call to clarify this.”
After giving out the order, the security guard left hurriedly with the key.
After noticing the tense situation, Gary grabbed Hannah, and they both also got out of the car. Furthermore, the taxi driver was also spooked. He took out their luggage and left the scene in a hurry.
“Jared, what's going on?” Hannah asked worriedly since she couldn't see what was happening.
“Don't worry, Mom. Everything's fine. It's just a normal security check. They're very strict here at Dragon Bay,” Jared consoled Hannah.
“Of course, they should be strict! This is the most luxurious neighborhood in Horington. I can even smell the fragrance of flowers from here!” Hannah couldn't contain her excitement.
