Liam withdrew his gaze and gave a subdued nod.
"Alright."
The four of them headed downstairs at an unhurried pace.
Fortunately, they never crossed paths with the four men.
The strangers seemed to be lingering somewhere below the tenth floor and had not ventured up to the thirteenth.
Suzy could occasionally hear faint footsteps echoing through the stairwell, but she couldn't determine exactly which floor they were on.
Before long, they arrived at the thirteenth floor.
Suzy and Thomas escorted Liam and Noah all the way back to their apartment.
After a moment of thought, Suzy reached into her pocket and pulled out a walkie-talkie.
"Liam, take this. If anything happens, you can contact me immediately."
She held it out to him.
Liam was visibly surprised. He clearly hadn't expected her to have something like that.
Their apartments weren't far apart, and with a walkie-talkie, communication would be much easier. They wouldn't have to keep running back and forth between floors.
