Chapter 124 - MJ Is His Cure

Harvey was still up for baby-making. If they could do it twice a day, they would. He loved MJ so much and he would do everything for her. Now, gently rubbing his fiancee's flat tummy, he wished that they would be given a blessing although he killed countless people. Even though they weren't innocent, Harvey felt bad for the people he killed, but just a little. He's still a human and the person who makes him human is MJ. 

"You were so sexy on that Versace on the floor." 

"Is that supposed to be a song?" She giggled and held his hand that was skimming his stomach. 

"You just look so sexy and I couldn't help myself." 

"Uhuh, Conrad was all over Johanna," MJ said. "I saw how possessive he is. I never saw him act that way." 

"That's because Johanna is cold and doesn't have any interest in men. She will only hang around if she needs him. For sex." 

"Uhuh," MJ nodded. "I wonder what makes her like that?" 

"Johanna is different. She's just that way, but that girl was overly protective of Keira." Harvey kissed her naked shoulders. "She's like someone I know."

MJ slowly turned to him and kissed his lips. 

"When are you going to finish her?" MJ asked and caressed his chest. "I don't want you to get involved with them further." 

"Tomorrow, I'll end it." He gently kissed her forehead. "I will stop killing for you, MJ. Unless they triggered me to do so." 

"I still love you, and will always love you no matter what you are." She reached his cheek with her palm. "You are the only man who treated me like a woman and as a real person. Besides Conrad…" 

"Well, I'm lucky to have you. You are my cure." 

Most people would think that if they knew their situation, their relationship could go toxic. Harvey didn't think it was toxic. It's just what it is. He could kill for MJ, for the sake of her protection. Killing is not normal. But with their current situation, it became normal to them. The drug that was injected into them still has side effects although they were cured and detoxed. The drug has already affected their brain for a long time. And he knew that time that MJ was guarding him, he knew that she was his cure and he was possessive to her and protective. 

"I'm tired." She mumbled and shoved her face to his chest. 

Once MJ was sound asleep and he also fell asleep, someone's presence woke him, and the beep of the door. He gently unwrapped himself from her and went downstairs. In the family room, a man is standing beside the cello and grand piano. 

"Old man," Harvey called. "I'll get the cash upstairs." 

"Did you eat a lot of nutritious food, boy?" The man asked. 

"I do… my fiancee was preparing food." 

"Good." He caressed the grand piano. "I won't live long and stay long in this world. Soon, I'll die." 

"That's depressing." Harvey sighed. "I'll get the cash, okay?" 

"Hmm, you scammed your sisters?" 

"Correct!" Harvey chuckled and went back upstairs. He opened the vault and took out a paper bag and put thick cash on it that her sister withdrew for him. When he went back downstairs, the man was looking around and checking the dusty things. 

"You should clean up this house. How could you keep your fiance here with dirty things around? Also, this looks like an old haunted house rather than a home." 

"Okay…" 

"And you plan long enough to have children. Don't be stupid and get things done here. You can't raise children with dusty things." 

"Alright!" Harvey raised his hands and put the paper bag over the grand piano. "I still have to end someone. The one who killed my baby and cause a deep scar to my love." 

"Then, finish it quickly." The man didn't check the money as he slid it into his inner pocket and left.

"Classic old man. No torture. Just quick killing." He sighed and checked the camera as the man left the house.

Johanna went to bed and locked the door so Conrad wouldn't enter her room. She needs to relax and gather herself. Something just triggered her badly. She didn't want sex at the moment and she told him clearly that she doesn't want to deal with him. She closed her eyes, however, she couldn't sleep. She sat up and went to the window as she saw the infinity pool. Maybe she needs to sweat it out. 

"Jo," Conrad knocked. She slipped off from the bed and opened the door 

"I told you. I want to be alone." She said coldly. 

"Is it because of me?" 

"No," She crossed her arms. "I'm not in the mood." 

She turned back from him and went to the closet as she chose one of the bikinis that Conrad bought. She undressed and put it on. Then, she checked if there was rubber to cover her hair so as not to get it wet. It's complete and everything she needs is there. 

"Are you mad at me?" Conrad asked. 

"No." She answered. 

"You sound cold which only indicates that you are mad at me." 

"I said," She turned to him. "I am not mad at you. If you ask me again, I'll truly get mad at you." 

"Okay." 

"Go to sleep." She said coldly. Conrad turned back and left. "Finally." She mumbled. 

She went to the pool, dived perfectly, and swam around back and forth back and forth. She didn't know that Conrad was watching her all this time. He went to the kitchen, prepared hot milk and sliced fruits. Then, he took the tray to the swimming pool and settled it on the rattan table. He walked around the pool with a towel while following her as she swam expertly. She then stopped when she reached the end. She held onto the pool, exhaled, and adjusted her goggles to her forehead. 

"Hey," Conrad smiled down at her as he squatted. "Can't sleep? I prepare some milk and fruits." 

She sighed and pushed herself up from the pool, twisted her body, and sat down. 

"I thought you were asleep." 

"Nah, I wouldn't sleep if I wasn't by your side." He wrapped the towel around her. He removed his slippers, sat beside her, and dipped his feet to the pool. "So, what's bothering you?" 

"Nothing." She said. "I won't tell." 

"Huh, really?" Conrad pokes her side and she glared at him. "So, can we talk over milk and fruits?" 

"Sure." He raised his feet and stood and he helped her. Finally, they walked to the rattan set of tables and chairs. He pulled a chair for her. She took a glass of milk and sipped on it. 

"By the way," he gently pushed the bowl of fruits to her. "You are quite good at swimming." He complimented. 

"I used to swim with Keira in the pool and sea when we were little. She loves the beach a lot. Also, I like to swim." 

"Nice." He winked. "I like to swim too but I mostly like skydiving." 

"Epic." She sneered. "I already tried one when I was in the States." 

"Uhuh, let's try skydiving this weekend." He suggested. 

"No. I'm gonna slack off." 

"By the way, I don't know about your childhood." 

"I know you do know a lot." She told him. 

"Like your blood type is O and you like dogs? Nope. I don't know much about you." He grinned. 

"Pfft!" She snorted. 

"I will tell you everything about me." He winked. "I love dogs and cats, but I lost one dog when I was on a mission." 

"Was it killed?" She asked. 

"Yes, right in my house. They somehow found where I was located, by simply putting a tracker on my car. I didn't notice it." He shrugged. "After that, I got a cat. However, the cat also died because I didn't take care of it well." 

"Huh, cats have nine lives." She said and picked a kiwi and nibbled on it. 

"They do. My cat was just like me, who wanted some action." He chuckled. "But seriously, my cat died dramatically. She ate poison." 

"What?" She creased her brows. "How can there be poison in your house?" 

"I don't even know." He shrugged. "Someone wanted to piss me off and killed my pets." 

"So, I am going to get killed?" She removed the rubber from her head and caressed her hair. 

"Nah, you won't." He stood and hugged her from behind. "I'll focus on you, baby. You are my Queen." He kissed her cheeks. 

"Stop that nonsense. I am no one's queen." 

"So, tell me. Besides Keira, did you have siblings before you were adopted?" 

She leaned on him and thought about it. 

"I don't have many memories, but I know that I have a brother but he's dead. Everyone is dead." 

"Hmm," He nodded and tightened his hug. "I have no one too. But I want you." 

"I am not a dog. I don't need someone to adopt me." 

He chuckled and kissed her cheeks. 

"But you are more adorable than a dog or a cat." 

She rolled her eyes. 

"Okay, I don't need you right now. I am testing the sex toys. Just go away." She pushed him. 

"Oh, come on." He snuggled with her more.

That night, he watched her please herself with a frown. She didn't even let him touch her but somehow, they ended up together in one bed.
