Chapter 147 - Daniella's promise

Evan felt as if cold water was splashed to his face, he turned stiff.

"Why are you asking me this?" Aaron asked.

Evan gulped; his breathing hardened as the time passed.

"This girl, did -" he swallowed hard, "what's her name? Does she have a family?"

Aaron jammed both hands in his front pocket, his head remained tilted in confusion.

"I am not sure about her name but she has a brother," he paused while his eyes looked up, "I think he's name was Daniel, Damon, hm... no," his head shook, "it was hm..." he stroked his chin as his thought went deeper.

"Danny," Evan stated.

Aaron flipped his finger in the air, "yes, it was Danny and he called his twin sister Dan-dan," and soon awe swept across Aaron's face, "That girl, she was locked in that laboratory for so many years," his head shook, "I got shot that night and lost consciousness so I didn't get to ask her name," then he blew a sigh and took out his hands from his pocket.

When he looked at Evan, the man was looking at the door where Daniella left.

Aaron flashed a half-smile but, it soon faded when Evan looked at him.

"Where-" a muscle in Evan's jaw twitched, "where is the girl?"

Aaron shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know but, I have been looking for her," his eyes squinted, "she's really pretty, the only thing I remember was the scar on her back."

Evan gulped hard, "how does it look like?" he asked even though he already knew the answer.

"It was a long scar from her neck down," he ticked his tongue twice while his head shook, "poor little girl, we were in the cave when-"

"SHUT UP!" Evan yelled in outrage, both hands balled in fists, "shut up and leave."

Aaron flashed a dumbstruck look, "I was just answering your question, Mr. Su," he lifted both hands in the air to surrender while his feet moved backward.

Aaron turned around and walked towards the exit, as he did the corner of his mouth quirked up in a smile.

At the Court of Justice.

Daniella parked outside of the building and waited for Robert. The man has her bag which she forgot in the hotel.

Soon, Robert arrived, he handed her the bag and walked back to his car.

Before he could leave, Daniella knocked on the windshield, "How's Scott? Is he still following Ramon Lee?"

Robert nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, we have him on surveillance. Everyone he meets, talks and calls, everything is recorded."

Daniella lifted a hand and patted his cheeks, "see, you and Scott are not useless after all," then she bent and placed a quick kiss on his head, "get out of here before you ruin my mood."

And so, Robert drove away but, he sped out causing the sand on the ground to fly on Daniella's face.

Coughing like she had stage four lung cancer, Daniella glared at the road, "this human!" she blurted and wiped the remaining sand on her face.

Soon, another car parked in the parking lot. Recognizing the plate, Daniella walked towards it.

The Judge who was about to go out of the driver seat froze after seeing the same woman from before though this time, she's no longer wearing a police uniform rather she had a pair of denim jeans and a white shirt while her hair was ponied up.

She looked neat and beautiful like a goddess who decided to take a break from heaven and wander on the earth.

But her attitude differed her face, the judge face screwed when she suddenly smiled.

"What do you need now?" he snarled.

Daniella handed a photo of Caitlyn's daughter to him, "call the child services and have them return the kid to her mother."

The judge looked down and sighed, "I can't. The custody will go to Caitlyn's ex-husband," he said returning the photo to her.

Daniella took it back, "have you checked your backyard?" she asked.

Immediately, the judge's face went paled, "you can't threaten me anymore, the body is no longer there," then he masked his fear with an evil smirk.

Like an innocent puppy, Daniella blinked her round eyes, "of course it's not there, I took it and transferred it to my boyfriend's backyard" then she mirrored his evil smile.

"What?" the judges face screwed.

Clicking her tongue once, Daniella spoke, "yeah, I haven't told him that," she blew her cheeks and puckered her lips with a loud sound.

The judge nose wrinkled, his hand on the side clenched as he tried to suppress his anger.

"If you do this, you won't see my face anymore," Daniella smiled at him, "you won't even hear my voice and I will give the model a proper burial. I promise!" she continued as she lifted her left palm in the air, "oh wait, it's wrong," she giggled and lifted her right arm.

"Fine, this is the last!" he snatched the photo from Daniella's hand and walked away.

"Tomorrow morning! Thank you, judge! You're the best!" she yelled as she pumped a fist in the air.

Another laugh full of amusement left Daniella's mouth when the judge looked back and glared at her.

A few days later...

Staring at her nails, Selena faked a smile. Camille offered to fix her nails which she was happy about but, the way she did it was so painful and the color was not even.

She gulped hard, inside she wanted to cry when she saw her little finger with blood on it.

'Is she planning to murder my finger?' she asked inside.

Camille got up and patted her legs, she felt cramped after Selena put all of her weight on her toe which was laying on her lap.

"Maybe I should make dinner later," she stated.

"Can you make pasta today?" Selena asked as she blinked her eyes to remove the tears she's holding.

"Ok, want to help me?"

Hearing her question, Selena's face whitened, "I can't'," she said and lifted her hands, "fresh nails."

Camille smiled at the girl and turned around, her hands holding the pouch full of nail polish clenched it tightly.
