Chapter 36
Damien Malcolm left the station with Lisa and Scarlett following behind him like little kids that did wrong and are waiting for punishment.
“Miss Lisa, I will send you back” A guard that no one knew where he came from, came over and said to Lisa.
Lisa turned and held Scarlett’s hand, “You must treat your wound on time and remember not to pull it, it takes time for a bullet wound to heal.
And your face too, Take care of it before you become disfigured” Lisa pouted and advised her.
“Of course. It’s not like it’s the first… It’s the first time and it hurts so badly” Scarlett changed her mouth immediately when she realized that she almost exposed herself.
“Most Importantly, You have to survive this night. Admit everything that you did and say you are wrong, we can’t lose this protector” Lisa whispered and glanced at Damien who when he wasn’t looking.
“Don’t worry about that, it’s even him that is most reluctant to part with me” Scarlett assured her as Lisa finally left with the guard.
“Let’s go” Damien glanced at her lightly and and walked over to the car.
“I have to go back home and bring a few things with me” Scarlett followed behind him and said.
“It’s an investigation site” Damien reminded her coldly.
“I know but I promised Dillan and Delanie to bring their special stuffed teddy bear. But since it’s an investigation site then there is nothing I can do and I only explain to them and try to buy them new one. Even though they’ve been with that one since they were little and are very attached to it, they will be able to let go after a few tears” She sighed helplessly after her long speech while looking at Damien from the corner of her eyes.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
“Let’s go” Damien glanced at her lightly and got into the car, behind him Scarlett smiled smiled smugly knowing that she succeeded.
Some of her mission equipment where hidden there and it will be hard to explain to the police if they are found there.
Is it her uniform, Her specially customized Knife, Her gun or her spikes, although they are all in her secret base but if the police discover the secret base it will be hard.
Especially that annoying Detective Jonathan, he might try to search her house when no one is there.
“We are here” After a 20 minutes drive Damien stopped in front of the Apartment.
“Thank you Mr. Damien” She smiled at him slightly.
“10 minutes!” Damien gave her time as Scarlett rolled her eyes and went into the house.
While she went in, Damien stared at the apartment with a deep look, His lips were pursed tightly and no one knew what he was thinking at the moment.
After about 20 minutes, Scarlett was seen by Damien coming out of the house with two big boxes and a bag on her shoulder.
He raised his brows slightly as he couldn’t help but wonder when two teddy bears became more than two boxes.
“Please come your car!” Scarlett raised her voice and said to Damien.
Damien didn’t say a word and just opened the back of his car, he sat down there and watched her movement through the rear mirror but he didn’t plan to come down and help her at all.
Scarlett could only grit her teeth and put the things one after the other while cussing him heavily in her heart.
She finished and came to the window to see Damien, “Sorry but it’s still remaining the teddy bear. I promise this is the last one” She smiled sweetly at him and turned away without waiting for him to say anything.
Coming out again 10 minutes later, Scarlett dragged a box and two teddy bears in her hand. Just like before she placed it in the booth and then got into the car.
“30 minutes!” Damien muttered.
“Huh?” Scarlett frowned as she didn’t understand what he talked about for a while.
“Waited!”
“Sorry, I’m bonded with my belongings and I can’t just leave them. No one knows when I will come back here” She smiled apologetically.
“My time is precious!” Damien glanced coldly at her as the last sensible string in Scarlett’s head broke.
Well her strings started breaking long ago that’s why she turned from indifferent to what people say to her, to firing back at them.
“Your time is precious?! My time is also precious. My age, my minutes, my seconds, every single one of them is precious.
And I know that you are not familiar with women but I should let you know that we have a lot of belongings.
Starting my kids necessities to my necessities, So if you want this marriage to be the way you want you can as well understand the important things here… And why should you even say that…”
And that’s how Scarlett continued with her nagging and complaints until Damien drove back to the Villa without responding to even a word of hers.
Since his 28th years of life, this is the first time he had so much tolerance and tried to stop himself from kicking someone out of the car or even feeding them to the tigers.
“We are here!” With three words he broke her long speech.
“Oh ok” Scarlett didn’t speak any longer and got ready to get out of the car.
“You are a Baker, how are you also familiar with knifes?” He asked her suddenly.
“I learned a few self defense from my late father before his death, At least the best thing I learnt from him is house to kill someone with one stroke.
I didn’t expect it to come in handy today” Scarlett replied with a touch of nostalgia.
Her words weren’t really a lie, When she was just little her father always thought her self defense and he got the perfect Killing stroke from him.
“You go and rest. It’s late” Damien didn’t ask any other thing and got out of the car first going up stairs.
“He turned out to be curious, Well, let’s see if Monday will go off will go off without a hitch” She muttered and got out of the car.
She paused in shock after taking a few steps inside.
“Wait! He actually didn’t help me to carry these things inside!!”
