Jackson observed Sabrina's face for a few seconds before speaking: "I see you have bodyguards."
"Yes. Max thought that I am too carefree considering my identity. Now that he is about to take over the company, he is facing different issues and he fears that I might be implicated.", Sabrina lied with a straight face. She is used to pretending with Jackson in public, so it came naturally.
Jackson nodded in understanding. Her story makes sense.
"They stopped me from coming to see you. Did they stop him as well?" Jackson gestured with his chin behind Sabrina.
In slow motion, Sabrina turned in the direction Jackson pointed.
'Oh, shit!', she cursed internally when she saw Ashton looking at her with an unreadable expression.
