Chapter 296 - Deform

Venus was chasing Riggs and Alex relentlessly. The lights and crowded highways gradually lessened as Riggs led her outside of the city and to an unknown rural area of country x. Regardless, even though she doesn't know the whole map of the country, Venus only cared about giving these two a lesson.

Moreover, the less the crowd is, the easier for her to caught up with them. Riggs knew about that fact but still chose to do that as he was reminded that Seraphina ordered them to stay low key. Fortunately, Alexander Han did something right by calling X and informed their dilemma.

Riggs only needed to lead Venus on -- far away from the city and face her head-on. After all, this wild cat won't stop and would certainly follow them at the ends of the world; probably even to hell.

Soon, Venus successfully overtook them as Riggs deliberately slowed down. She sped meters away from them before her car drift and man a u-turn -- facing Riggs slowing down the car. She revved up her car as if she was preparing to crash the expensive ride of Alexander Han. After all, the ride she was using wasn't hers thus, she couldn't care less if it turns into a pulp.

"Ugh, Riggs?" Alexander Han mumbled seeing Venus revving car buffer in front of them. It was as if time itself slows down as he could envision Venus' beautiful face distorted in anger. Surely, her intention this time was to destroy both of their cars which he doesn't mind.

However, doesn't she know that what she was doing was too dangerous that might cause their life? On the second thought, probably she knew they won't die that she was doing it. After all, Alexander Han already witnessed how crazy these people are -- which he actually didn't expect for them to surpass the meaning of 'crazy' in his vocabulary.

On the other hand, Riggs peered at the blinding light coming from Venus headlights like he was unaffected by it. He could even hear himself swallow a mouthful of saliva as he made a decision. Not turning his head to his side, he spoke. "Hey, unbuckle your seat -- we're ejecting."

Alexander Han quickly turns his head to Riggs yet, he didn't say a word as he did what he was told without asking. It was too obvious that Riggs would want them to jump off the car before crashing with the crazy cat. In that case, though they may acquire minor injuries, they could buy themselves some time to flee.

Holding on to the car handle placed above the car window, Alex breathed in and out as he prepared his mentality. Actually, surprisingly enough, he didn't feel scared or reluctant. It was the opposite. He trusted Riggs words despite all the beating he received from the past two months. Also, probably because of that, not to mention his practice with Leon, he wasn't afraid of getting hurt -- he experienced hell.

Only a minute had passed yet, for the three of them, it felt forever. When Venus's car was about to execute her plans, Rex's voice was heard even before answering her phone.

"Stop that. Boss will meet you in a few days --" alas, just as Rex was about to relay Seraphina's message to Venus with great patience, he was abruptly interrupted by Venus raging voice.

"NO! These lowlives -- I'll kill the both of them! How dare they --"

"Deform."

"What did you just said?" Hearing an ambiguous word coming from the line, Venus' attention was slightly diverted. She turned her head to her phone's direction which was placed inside her handbag on the front passenger seat.

"If you continue that, Luciano will see your deformed face. Rest, he'll meet you in a few days with a gift." with that said note, Rex didn't idle anymore as he cut off the line -- certain that his words would influence her. After all, Venus only cares about Luciano, it was as if her whole world revolves around Seraphina. Hence, Rex was having a headache just thinking about how Seraphina will reveal about the truth.

On Riggs side, they were prepared to face Venus head-on yet, for some reason, Venus ride wasn't moving. Soon, both men saw the headlights gradually low its beam indicating that she conceded. Knitting his brows in confusion, Riggs couldn't help but be suspicious about what she was up to.

As if hearing god heard his pleas, the answer soon came to them when Alexander Han's phone rang. Seeing it was Rex old number which Alexander Han obtained via X, he suddenly felt relieved.

"Sending you coordinates where you'll be heading." Rex emotionlessly uttered before cutting off the line without explaining or any reassurance that Venus calmed down.

Alexander Han turned his attention back to see Riggs tighten his jaw. It was as if he had another huge problem more than this one.

"Will it be worse?" Part of Alexander Han somewhat understood Riggs from the past two months they spent his training. Hence, seeing Riggs troubled yet stoic face, Alex could only ask if Rex was bad news.

"A lot tiring, lady." Riggs clicked his tongue in annoyance. Knowing that Venus end was settled, they could finally ease their backs on the unnoticed superb interior of their car.

When Venus slowly passed by them, she slightly rolled down her window showing her middle finger to them before speeding away as if nothing happened.

On his way back to Seraphina's study, Rex almost bumped into Seraphina as she was literally running her way out. Not bothering to look at him, Seraphina continued her pace downstairs.

"Young Miss Yue?" He called out yet, Seraphina was heedlessly searching for her keys. Knitting his brows in confusion, Rex immediately followed Seraphina.

"My keys… where is it? Oy, my keys?!"

"You're holding it." Rex blankly informed. For some reason, Seraphina was trembling as if trying to keep her sanity intact yet failing, miserably.
