Chapter 181 - Turning into a killer

Outside of the Su financial  bank. 

People in the street gathered around after a man suddenly fell from the sky. 

Aaron's  dead body was scattered on to the floor after falling from the 30th floor of the building. No one knew who he was but a woman sitting in the passenger of the car next to a man was crying heavily. 

"Aaron, no," Kierry sobbed, her eyes were overflowing with tears while her hands were clenching angrily. 

"Who- who did this," she sniffed and turned to Arthur who was sitting next to her. 

"Based on the audio recording, seems like Daniella pushed him," he said in a vicious tone, his expression closed up as he watched the people gathering around the dead body as if it amused them . Even if they want to take Aaron's body  they can't, there were too many people around and he's certain that one of them has called the police. 

Burying her face on her palm, Kierry let out another loud wail. 

Meanwhile, Claire's eyes were wide in shock to see a man who was being surrounded by people. She looked aside and saw Robert with a grave-like expression. 

"Let's go inside," Robert said solemnly. 

As they rushed into the building, they saw how people were chatting. No one knew who the man was and his face was unrecognizable since he fell on his face. 

Meanwhile, Daniella's body shaking uncontrollably leaned against the wall. Next to her was Evan laying on the floor, still unconscious. 

She managed to stop the bleeding but he will need a proper treatment to remove the bullet. 

'Why would Aaron suddenly shoot him?' 

'He said that he wanted us together.' Daniella looked at Evan, his eyes were close while his face has turned pale. 

Raising a hand Daniella touched his face. Her eyebrows creased.  

'Who was Aaron working with?' she wondered. 

'Is it doctor Lee?'  

'Its possible. He said he worked at the basement before. But if he knew about my eyes, why did he not tell it to Roman Lee?' 

She was never a guessed-person. She preferred to do her own research but Aaron's dead so she wouldn't get any answer even if she wanted to. 

'Is my life going to be like this?' 

She buried her face on her palms, causing for the  blood to stain on her sweaty face. 

A few heavy sighs left her mouth. She knew she needed to do something. Robert was right, people whom she had caused trouble in the past will come back and hurt her or Evan. 

She rose from the floor and looked at Evan. Her feet switched from one foot to another toward the hole she made. 

Slowly, she peeked out her head. She can't barely see the ground and its mostly because of the distance and her eyes, they were red, puffy and wet. 

She blew out a shaky sigh and walked back to Evan. He hasn't woken up yet. 

Is it a mistake to be with him? She asked herself. She did not want him to get shot, but it seemed that fate has another plan and it was to take Evan away from her just like what it did to her family. 

She slumped onto the floor next to Evan. She will never let him get hurt again. Never again. 

The door opened, Claire and Robert emerged from the office and rushed towards her. 

"What happened?" Robert asked hurriedly. 

Daniella's lips shaking like a leaf parted, "he was shot twice. I managed to stop the bleeding. Give me the tools, quick!" 

Claire immediately handed the bag she brought with her to Daniella. It was full of medical tools which she got from the trunk of Daniella's car. 

Without wasting any time, Daniella opened the bag. She took a syringe and filled it with anesthesia, injected it on Evan's body and opened the bag again to search for medical gloves. 

When she found it, she took a small scissor and scalpel and started removing the bullet  

Meanwhile, Robert looked around. Shock was visible on his face  

Then his eyes ended at the man laying on the  floor. He has never seen him before but the man had a hole on his forehead and blood was overflowing from it. 

'Did Evan kill him?' He asked himself.  

What exactly happened here? There were too many questions in his head. He wanted an answer but Daniella was busy right now and he did not dare to disturb her after all, the expression she had on her face was the same eight year ago. 

Robert took a few sigh and walked towards the dead man. He patted the man's pocket and found a phone. 

Robert opened it. It was locked so he took the man's finger and pressed it on the screen. 

When it unlocked, he opened the inbox only to find it empty. 

He did not have the tools to recover the files that has been deleted on the phone, if there was even a file to recover. So he went to the maps and checked the man's history. 

His eyebrow creased when he found an address he recognized. He couldn't be mistaken, it was Dr. Lee's address. He remembered it very well as he and Scott have been following him for some time. 

"Daniella. I think this man was working with Roman Lee," he said in rush without breathing. 

Daniella who was busy stitching Evan's wound looked at him. 

"So it was him," she said angrily. Nerves were popping in her neck like snakes. 

Robert pursed his lips. He didn't like the expression on Daniella's face, it was too scary even for him. 

"What are we going to do?" he didn't know why but a slight excitement rose in his chest. Finally, he can do something exciting after months of being a guard to the two senators in the warehouse and following an old man. 

"I will need to meet up with Roman Lee as for you Robert, I need you to sneak out of the building with Evan and Claire," she paused and patched a bandage on Evan's wound. 

She got up, gathered some clothes for Evan and handed it to Claire. 

"Make sure that he's sanitized properly Claire," her eyes gloomed as she stared at Evan. 

Then she took a lighter from her pocket, picked up a book from the room and lit it up. 

Robert and Claire were confused, but it soon cleared when the smoke alarm sounded in the room. 

"While everyone is busy escaping. You two can use the elevator to bring Evan down." 

"What about you?" Robert asked, holding her wrist with worry. 

"I need to dispose this body. I killed him so he's my responsibility." 

Surprised with what he heard, Robert released Daniella's wrist. 

" You- you killed him?" his voice broke down. He was not expecting Daniella to kill someone. She always said that one thing she will never do was to kill a person but right now, she just did and it was to save Evan. And it's always because of Evan.

"Did he shoot Evan?" 

Daniella shook her head, "Aaron did, I pushed him out of the hole but I needed to kill him or else he will shoot Evan again," she said pointing at the lifeless man on the floor.

Robert could hear the exhaustion in her weak and shaky voice. He sighed, could not believe that Daniella would really kill someone in order to protect Evan. 

He had faced difficult situations before with Daniella before but the woman would rather get shot and escape than to kill her enemy. 

Inside the car. 

Kierry blew out a sigh as she turned off the audio monitor of her phone. 

"Why did you hack Aaron's assistant phone Arthur?" her voice was still broken while her eyes were red and wet from tears. 

"Daniella is a smart woman. Now that she knows Aaron is your brother, she will be suspected of you and we can not have her sniffing around your fake grave Kierry," he paused and cupped her cheeks, "she will think that Aaron was working with Roman Lee. And we know that we need Roman Lee dead and we can have her done it for us. Now that she had kill someone, I am sure that she won't hesitate to do it again."

After that explanation, Kerry's head cleared. As she shut her eyes  another tears fell from them.
