Chapter 125 - Robert's tongue

Bing and Evan watched Daniella as she passed them casually.  

"She had a point, you could have rung her instead of me," Bing said sarcastically as he turned to face Evan.  

The smile on his lips which was about to form froze upon seeing Evan peacefully watching his girlfriend running back to the villa like a kid.  

"How old is she?" He asked Evan which was still in dazed.  

Blinking his eyes, Evan looked at his friend, "twenty-three," he replied.  

Bing chuckled, "I thought you had a thing with an older woman, what changed?" He waggled his brows as he teasingly asked that question.  

"What the heck is that supposed to mean?" Evan asked back with his eyes narrowing in irritation.  

Bing gave him a half shrug, "I don't know. You dated my wife and then you had a crush on Kierry," he chuckled by the frustration on Evan's face, "hey calm down," he raised both hands in the air, "she's cute and…" he sniffed, "incredibly has a sweet scent," he shook his head, pressing his lips together, "why do you always get to meet the nice girls first."  

With a flat face, Evan pumped a fist on Bing's arm, "get out of here," he said and smiled.  

Bing took a step back, "where did you meet her?"  

Remembering the place they met, Evan let out a faint chuckle, "rooftop, she was trying to assassinate the president."  

Bing was stunned by his reply, he took his time to sink that information in his mind before taking a long sigh, "oh wow! You caught a cute beast," he clicked his tongue repeatedly, "too bad I am married."  

Hearing that, frown formed on Evan's face, "get out of here," he pushed him aside while Bing continued laughing.  

"Next time she goes missing, try to ring her phone first!" Bing yelled and gestured his subordinates to leave.  

--  

Evan blew a sigh and followed Daniella inside the house, but his feet froze when he found her on the floor fighting with Robert. He rose a brow, despite her small body, she was able to overpower Robert who had a body of a wrestler.  

He jammed both hands in his pocket and looked around, the maids and guards were looking at Daniella and Robert like they were watching live wrestling.  

Meanwhile, with all the exhaustion in Daniella's mind, she lashed out as soon as Robert told her that he slipped and informed Evan about her chip.  

Sitting on Robert's back while he was on the floor, Daniella tightened her grip to his wrists causing Robert to scream.  

"Ah! Daniella that's... ah!" another scream left Robert's lips when Daniella pressed a hand on his head and slumped his face onto the floor.  

"I will cut out your tongue Robert and feed it to your brother!" she said with anger.  

"I didn't mean it!" Robert tried to move on his side to switch their position but Daniella held the back of his neck with her hand and put all the pressure on it, "ah! Seriously this witch!"  

"Witch?" saying that Daniella pulled his arm backward causing him to scream even louder.  

"Let me go! Daniella," Robert ordered in a firm voice, "you've been so open to him, how would I know what you have and haven't told him."  

Hearing that, Daniella started to loosen her grip to his neck and wrist. She realized that he had a point.  

She's about to let him go when Scott spoke, "The General and two Lieutenants also heard it."  

Quickly, Robert's eyes swelled, "What the hell Scott!" he yelled and soon another scream from his lips roared in the villa.  

"Let him go, Daniella," Evan suddenly spoke, approaching them in big steps.  

Daniella got up but her eyes were squinted irritably looking at Robert.  

"You witch!" Robert mumbled.  

"You moron, come here so I can cut your useless tongue!" Daniella snarled and about to chase Robert when Evan suddenly stopped her.  

Taking a deep breath, Evan locked Daniella's body with his arm, "It's fine Daniella. I told you, I won't ask," he understood her anger, there are so many memories he had seen every time they kissed and it created more questions he wished he could ask but he promised that he won't ask until she's prepared to tell it herself.  

Daniella froze upon hearing it, the anger wrinkling on her face smoothened and her mind calmed down.  

Why was she so scared to tell him about the chip? When he had probably seen it through her memories.  

She gulped hard and took a step back, her heart wavered by the thought of telling him that. She has been keeping some secrets from him, including the facts about her wealth.  

Somehow, she's scared to let him know about the chip, opening up to him was harder than she thought. It was definitely not like how she explained it to her friends. She's frightened, her mother once told her that people would take advantage of her the same reason why she couldn't fully trust anyone, not even her closest friend Robert.  

Slowly, her hands clenched. She knew that he won't ask if she's uncomfortable but it would be selfish of her to keep him confused.  

So, she gulped hard, elevated her face to meet his eyes.  

"I ahm..." she cleared her throat, "do you want to see my place?"  

Evan's brows furrowed by her question, "I have been in your apartment, Daniella."  

She shook her head, through the corner of her eyes, she caught Scott and Robert staring at her deeply.  

"No, the other place. It's where my family was buried."  

They both became quiet, Evan just stared at her hoping for her to say more and Daniella was the same.  

Withdrawing his eyes from Daniella's cold stares, Evan nodded, "Do I need to ask Kirby to look after the company?"  

Daniella shook her head and flashed a wide smile, her feet walked closer to him and as she reached him, she tiptoed to level her face to his.  

And with a voice, warm and seductive, she whispered, "no and don't bother bringing clothes."
