213 Chapter 213: Wait for the death to come

Midnight. 

Roman Lee who was sitting at the backseat of his black sedan peeked through the window. Daniella hasn't come to rescue her friends and his wife hasn't called whether she was safe or not. 

His phone rung, when he looked at the screen, his face screwed up. It was the president. 

He took in a sigh and answered the call, then he cleared his throat to fix his tone. 

\"Yes, Mr President?\" 

\"How's it going?\" 

Roman Lee looked at the rearview mirror to meet the driver's eyes. He lifted a hand gesturing him to leave the car. 

When the driver left, Roman Lee clenched the hems of his shirt. 

\"I think she will be here soon. The plane that we will use to bring her to France is waiting as well as the laboratory.\" 

The president chuckled, it sounded as if he won a lottery, \"good... good. Make sure that no one touches her. I have an important client who is waiting for her.\" 

Roman Lee pressed his lips together. Men will always be men when it comes to a beautiful woman.  

\"I am afraid that this will cause us so much trouble. Unlike before, a lot of people knows Daniella now. I am afraid that they will start looking for her.\" 

Another laughed full of amusement sounded from the President. 

\"Don't worry Roman. Her friends are nothing, they don't have power and so as her. Power is everything Roman, if she just has it, we won't be able to touch her.\" 

Roman lee couldn't agree more. If Daniella has the same power as the president, no one wouldn't be able to touch her. Despite her being special, she was nothing when it comes to society. No one knew her existence aside from her friends who were just simple citizens. 

\"I will leave everything in your hands, Roman. If you need anything, just call me.\" 

A smile formed on Roman Lee's lips upon hearing it. Now that all of his plans were going smooth, the President started to respect him. 

His confidence boosted, he got out of the car and decided to go back to the warehouse. 

Meanwhile. 

Branches of trees cracked after it was stepped on. Daniella bent her body and used her binocular to observe the warehouse. 

Her bag pack which almost the same size as her - was full of smoke grenades and guns. Slowly, she lay the bag on the floor and opened the zipper.  

She picked up two smoke grenades and switched her eyes between them. 

\"Damn it, I forgot what is the poisonous one,\" she shook her head and decided to put them in her pocket. She was wearing army pants which were covered with pockets.

Her white t-shirt was slowly loose allowing her to move freely, \"we die, we die,\" then she plucked her lips,  picked up a swiss knife and put it in her bra. 

She breathed out and then walked with big steps towards the warehouse. The face of a soldier who was ready to die for her country registered on her face.  

As she approached the warehouse, the four men who were standing in front of the door pointed a gun at her. She smiled sweetly at them, then she quickly grabbed the smoke grenades in her pocket and tossed it on the floor. 

\"It's a grenade! No, two grenades!\" one of the men shouted. 

The quiet place was disturbed by the loud shriek of the guards, they were acting like a lady in front of a cockroach, they all started running away from the warehouse leaving their boss behind. 

Daniella blinked her round eyes dumbfounded, definitely not expecting for those hulk-like men to run away like coward bullies. 

She looked at the grenades she threw. She hasn't taken off the pin that's why it didn't explode. 

Shaking her head, she picked it up as well as the bullet she found on the floor and walked closer to the door. She lifted a hand and touched the rusty doorknob, her heart pounded. She was unsure of what her friend's situation, but she knew that they were tortured, of course, it was Roman Lee, he has a different way to hurt people. 

She gulped hard, her friends were inside and she knew that they were willing to die for her but she wouldn't let them, simply because they deserve to live. They have been so wonderful and understanding, that's why she couldn't understand why they stayed on her side. 

She looked at her hand holding the bullet she picked up on the floor, the acrid smell of stale gunpowder enveloped her nasal cavities. Once she entered the place, she will become a killer. It's alright, she said in her mind. 

She's doing this for her friends, to save her friends. Killing people shouldn't be easy, she had killed two in order to save Evan, and the man still decided to leave her but her friends on the other side, the people who had been tolerating her attitude needed her to save them right now. 

She pushed the door opened and when she closed it, she placed another bomb which connected to the bomb she had around her body. The dim light of the bulb in the warehouse welcome her and then from looking at the ground she raised her chin and found men pointing their guns at her. 

Her lips formed a lopsided grin, then she removed her clothes leaving her bra on and the bomb covering her stomach. 

\"Why use a gun if you can blow out yourself, right?\" as she said that with a wink, she lifted the remote in the air and placed a thumb on the button. 

\"Look, guys. I am not really in the mood right now. So, you either go and leave this place or die with me.\" 

The twenty men looked behind them, then everyone moved aside to give way to Roman Lee. 

\"You're not going to press it,\" Roman Lee said with confidence.  

Daniella blew out a sigh, then without a warning, she pressed the red button and the timer for ten minutes started to tick. 

Roman Lee's eyes widened in shock. He thought she was bluffing and would talk but she just pressed the button and the counted has started. 

\"You're crazy!\" he shouted at her, he started panicking and his expression has made everyone anxious. 

\"Boss, this is going to explode. What should we do?\" the man who handed Roman Lee the whip to hurt Robert asked. 

\"Go and take off the bomb from her body!\" he ordered glaring at him. 

The man then walked closer to Daniella but she pointed a gun at him and rose a brow. 

\"Go,\" she said pointing at the door, \"I will shoot you before you could even touch me.\" 

The man gulped and looked at Roman Lee in dismay, he needed to save himself so he rushed towards the door but his body froze when he realized that another bomb was attached to the door. 

Daniella giggled as she watched the shock register on everyone faces. It was worth it, finally, after months she was able to use her grenades and guns once again. 

\"Ugh! I forgot that to tell you that I attached a bomb on the door. Anyway, if you open that door, this bomb,\" she pointed at the bomb on her stomach, \"will explode.\" 

Roman Lee shook his head, he took a few steps back with his trembling legs. 

He was not expecting Daniella to be like this. No one would be crazy enough to wrap a bomb around their body. 

She wanted to die! His eyes widened by the thought. It seemed so, looking at her eyes, Roman Lee saw nothing but emptiness. 

She was heartbroken, no future that must be the reason why she has those bombs wrapped around her body. He then remembered the reason why she decided to cooperate with him and it was because of Evan and now that the man broke up with her, Daniella seemed to have lost her will to live. 

In this tight situation, Roman Lee felt his body weakening. He let out a shaky breath and lifted a hand in the air. 

\"Fine, fine! I will leave and I won't go back. Just turn it off! I want to live.\" 

Shifting from one foot to another, Daniella walked closer to Roman Lee. Her face was pale and serious. Eyes were puffed from all the crying she did last night. 

She halted in front of him, then placed both hands on his shoulders. 

\"I am in a mood to die today Roman Lee, so just close your eyes and wait for the death to come.\" 

Saying that the timer started to tick faster. 

From minutes, it became seconds... feeling hopeless Roman Lee bit his lips and shut his eyes. 

In the background, Jenna shouted \"Daniella no please... my hair!\" her words made everyone baffled. 

Daniella parted her lips, shifting her gaze to her friends she winked at them and whispered. 

\"Five, four, three, two...\" 

And the bomb exploded, the impact has made Roman Lee's body flew meters away and everyone in a room scattered into different places as well while Daniella was dragged to the door by the rope that was wrapped around her body. 

Her face screwed as she felt the impact of the door, her sight blurred by the blue smoke of the bomb that exploded. Then she smiled, her body fell down to the ground as she watched everyone lost their senses.
