242 The childhood conflict
Maverick and Damien arrived at Country M’s airport at night, yet Damien had no intention of leaving.
“Where do you think you’re going?” Maverick asked.
“I should be asking you that. Why are the spirits of the girls I killed following you around? Did you
summon them?” He made a sarcastic joke as he looked at Kimberly’s sisters that were glued to Code
10. 10.
He had noticed them since they entered the plane. He was shocked to see them alive and it dawned on
him that Maverick had been messing with him. Kimberly must be part of the plan but now that she was
unconscious, he can’t ask her anything. Good thing the girls were alive, now Kimberly won’t hate him
anymore. He smiled.
“Hmm… to haunt you,” Maverick responded as he made his way to the line of black cars that were
waiting for him.
“Too bad, their spirits are even scared of me, so how would they haunt me?”
Maverick turned his head to the side and curled his lips. “Soon, you’ll understand.”
Damien frowned. He was right. Maverick was digging a hole for him to fall into and it seems he cannot
resist falling into that hole. Provided the plan doesn’t take his life, his wealth, or his Kimberly, then it will
be fine.
Maverick entered the car that was opened for him. He placed his head on the headrest like he always
does and tried to close his eyes. However, before he could lose himself in his own world, the other side
of the door opened and someone got in.
Maverick knew that neither Code 2 nor Code 10 would get into his private space without being
summoned, so he opened his eyes to see but was a little taken aback when he realized it was Damien.
Maverick raised a brow and said; “this is my car.”
“Of course, I’m not saying it’s mine…Wait, you weren’t intending to leave me here, were you?” seeing
that Maverick wasn’t saying anything, Damien chuckled. “I followed you here, so it’s only right that you
take responsibility for me. Moreover, I have a lot of enemies, especially Emilee. She’ll immediately kill
me before anyone from the family knows I’m back. Until I’ve found out who is backing her, I intend to
hide and your place is the best hiding spot for me.”
“What makes you think I can’t carry out my revenge on you?”
“You have no reason to kill me just yet.” Damien sighed. “You found out everything I did and you were
undoubtedly angry but still spared my life until now. It means that I haven’t wasted my usefulness. Until
then, you won’t kill me, I’m sure.” With that said he smiled bitterly.
Maverick glanced at him but said nothing and rested his head on the headrest and closed his eyes.
Damien stared at Maverick’s side profile for a long time as he slowly traveled down Memory lane. Little
Damlen of around 4-5 years was eating in the cafeteria with his twin brother, Ruben who was of the
same height but was a little bigger and looked more powerful than Damien- he was stronger as Damien
appeared to look a little unhealthy.
A moment later, Maverick walked in with his three friends. Fin, Matt, and Celestine, and came to stand
in front of Damien and Ruben.
Damien was all smiles as he looked at the person he wishes to befriend but never paid him attention.
“Maverick, you saw the note?” Damien asked with a sweet smile.
However, instead of Maverick answering, he looked at him with disdain, pulled out a paper from his
pocket and slapped it on the desk in front of Damien, then turned and left with his friends. Damien was
hurt by that look that Maverick gave him but before he could take the paper and know what was written
on it, Ruben took the paper and tore it into shreds.
“Ruben, what are you doing?!” Damien demanded with an angry tone as he gathered the pieces and
tried to piece them together, but failed.
“What else? He already looked at you like a worthless thing, do you still want to read a letter from him
that would insult you even more? Brother, stop being stupid. It’s obvious you cannot be his friend.
Grandfather, Father and Mother said that the Lu family is our enemy and we must kill them if we can!”
“Stop talking nonsense. The older people are the ones at war, not us children. I like Maverick and his
friends and want to be a part of his circle. If you can’t help me, don’t interfere anymore!”
The image switched to two years later. Damien was still stalking Maverick and was eager to be his
friend but as usual, for some reason, Maverick always felt disgusted.
On this day, in the cafeteria, Damien brought extra food from home and offered Maverick some. He
accidentally heard from his parents that Maverick’s parents were having a fight. Believing that Maverick
must not have eaten, Damien made his nanny get him more food.
When he placed the flask on the table, in front of Maverick who was looking lost as his friends ate while
his side of table was empty, Maverick didn’t look at him with disdain and Damien was very excited.
“I- I brought you something. It’s your favorite. You should try it, I guarantee it’s very delicious and you’ll
like it.” Damien beamed with ure innocence.
Maverick glanced at him for a little more than his usual one–second look, thehe looked at the flask and
was about to speak to him for the first time in his life when Ruben came over and knocked the
flask away.
“Didn’t I tell you to stay away from him? He doesn’t like you one bit! He’ll only make fun of you again.
Are you so stupid?!” After that, Ruben tried to drag Damien away but Damien resisted and threw his
brother’s hand away.
“What is your business? I said I want to be his friend. How is that your concern? Please stay away from
my problems, I don’t want you to interfere anymore?!”
