Chapter 180 - The Shooting

Sebastian blew out a heavy sigh, "whatever your decision is, I will always be here. Birth control doesn't work on your either so just stick with the condom for now," he snickered teasingly before continuing, "I still can't believe that a man like Evan was able to change your perspective."

His eyes gloomed, even James whom Daniella loved so much wasn't able to change her mind about having a kid.

"You give up your revenge and even start a family. You really do love him, don't you?" he squeezed her hands which he was holding.

When Daniella smiled and nodded Sebastian could not help but to pull her for a hug, "I am happy for you but do not make a rash decision when you are happy," he pulled away and cupped her cheeks.

"Does he know that you proposed to me when we were five?"

Instantly, Daniella's face went poker. She clearly remembered it. That time, she was having a small crush on Sebastian. His family had just moved in and he instantly became close to her.

And she thought he was really her friend but she later found out that he was only coming to their house for Danny.

Without knowing her hands lifted in the air to give Sebastian a slap but the man knew her words and action that's why his hand quickly held her wrist and started tickling her sides.

"How dare you! I spent two hours hiding all my pores" Sebastian blurted as he continued tickling her, "should I tell Evan all the embarrassing things you've done when you were small?" he threatened.

Daniella froze, there was one reason why she has not introduced Sebastian to Evan and it was because of her past. If Sebastian told Evan about it, she would probably go insane and hide to a place where no one knew who she was.

Flashing a triumph smile Sebastian released her.

"I learned from a certain witch that threatening someone always works," he rose from the couch and started to leave, "let me know when you made up your mind about having a kid."

Daniella stared at the door where Sebastian left. Was she really ready to start a family? She has not thought it well. All she knew was that she wanted to have kids with Evan.

She lamented and looked at Claire who was busy talking to the people from the laboratory that sent the result.

What if Danny was her kid, she was certain that she will accept him but what about Evan, what would he feel about it?

To remove the thought in her mind, Daniella shook off her head. It's impossible, there's no way that Danny would be her kid.

She rose from her chair but froze in the middle. What if Danny was really her kid, does it mean that Glen was the man who saved her and she kissed in the cave?

Her skin crawled by the thought. With a rush, Daniella left Claire's house and decided to visit Evan.

-

At the Su Financial.

Entering his office, Evan's eyebrow creased. He could hear some sound in the bedroom which only meant that Daniella was inside.

Switching from one foot to another, Evan strode towards the adjacent room in his office. Slowly, he opened the door and loosened his tie as he entered the room.

As he closed the door, his hand froze. Eyes widened like a pair of owl eyes as he stared at the two men standing in the bedroom.

One was not familiar to him while the man next to him was no other than Aaron. The man who he has been searching for days.

"Evan, I am glad you are back."

Aaron's voice was livelier than the last time they met. His eyes were covered with glasses and he seemed to be getting help from the man next to him.

"What are you doing here?" Evan asked casually there was a slight fear rising inside of him but it's mostly because of Daniella. He wouldn't want her to be in the room with Aaron.

"I am not here to fight Evan. Actually, I am here to congratulate you," saying that he clapped both of his hands while flashing a wide smile on his lips.

"You tamed the witch," and soon his smile turned bitter.

"What do you want Aaron? Are you here to kill Daniella?"

Shock registered on Aaron's face upon hearing it.

"No Evan, I am here to make sure that you two will live a peaceful life."

Evan furrowed his brows, "what do you mean?" he took a step forward but he stopped when the man next to Aaron pointed a gun at him.

Aaron took a sigh, tapped the walking stick his holding and shook his head bitterly, "I want Daniella to live a peaceful life, that's all I can do after my sister killed her brother."

Evan's eyes narrowed, he could hear the sincerity in his voice but a part of him didn't want to believe him.

"You are Kierry's brother?"

All eyes turned to the door where Daniella was standing. She heard everything and shocked by what Aaron said.

She gulped hard, walked towards Aaron in big steps and as she halted in front of him, her hand lifted and landed to his neck.

She pushed him until they reach the hole she made in the glass wall.

"How did you know about me?"

There was no fear on Aaron's face instead he was smirking like a devil.

"Do you not remember me, Daniella? The basement? The janitor who always brings you food?"

Daniella was stunned upon hearing it. She's certain that she had disposed all the people who worked with Dr. Lee in the basement, including the janitors.

"I don't remember you. But since you are Kierry's brother I guess it's just normal to have you pay for what your sister had done."

Aaron chuckled, it was emotionless just like his face.

"Really? You never kill anyone, Daniella. Do you really think you can kill me?"

His smile disappeared, "I followed you since you escape that basement. You might like torturing people but you are not a murderer."

Daniella pursed her lips together. He was right, she had never killed anyone and she's not planning to do it now. Especially now that she's trying to have a normal life.

So she released him, she heard that he only wanted for her and Evan to live peacefully. She did not believe it, especially it came out of Aaron's mouth but right now she did not want to kill anyone and she has been trying to hold herself from torturing someone.

"Fine. I will not kill or torture you but you need to tell me everything you know about the basement."

Daniella turned around it was enough, she can't take it no more.

As she walked closer to Evan a gunshot resonated in the room.

Daniella turned her head to look behind and found Aaron without his glasses and a gun in his hand pointing at Evan's directly.

Immediately, Daniella jerked her head at Evan's direction only to find him holding his stomach which had become red with his blood.

Another gunshot rang into her ears. Daniella felt her world stopping as she watched the bullet pierced into Evan's clothes.

Evan fell down, Daniella immediately turned around, snatched the gun from Aaron and pushed him out of the building through the hole she made.

Without wasting any time, she pointed the gun at the other man and pulled the trigger. She didn't have time to wonder why the man didn't shoot her as of right now, her mind was focused at Evan's condition.

BANG!

One-shot on the forehead. The man's body fell to the ground dead.

Daniella rushed towards Evan. Her eyes which were shock and wet with her tears were staring at Evan's wound.

"hold on babe. I will help you."

And with that, she rushed to the bathroom where a medicine kit was located. She might not be able to operate him but at least she can stop the bleeding.

As she put pressure on Evan's wound, she dialed her friend's number and asked them to come right away.
