279 Locked up together
“What else? Of course to see her suffer and die slowly. I heard this place is dangerous. Say, is it
dangerous because your family eats the people?” Brian curled his lips when he saw the frown on Feng
Long’s face. 1
“I thought as much, your family is carnivorous… or should I use barbarians? I think-” he was cut off
when Feng Long opened the sub–basement door.
“Oh? Hope I won’t suffocate? Pulling a trigger would be better, don’t you- f*ck!!!” He yelled while falling
into the underground storage room.
Brian was unceremoniously pushed down by one of Feng Long’s brothers who happened to be
eavesdropping on them.
“He said he was your friend!!” His voice thundered, sending shivers down Feng Long’s spine.
“Yes, that’s how we bicker.” Feng Long’s voice didn’t expose the fact that he was shaken by his
brother’s anger. Although he has problems with Brian, killing the guy was the last thing on his mind.
They used to be good friends and those days were the happiest days of his life. If not for Madam
Caroline who made it known that he loves Piper, they might still have been good friends even now.
The guy sighed and closed the door. Sending Brian to Piper is the most he can do for them before hist
brothers decide their fate in two days.
“You idiot! Do you want to hurt my face before your heartless family kills me?!” Brian yelled after sitting
up from hitting his face on the tiled floor.
“B- Brian?” Piper’s shocked and uncertain voice coming from behind him made him freeze.
“Wh- what are you doing here?” She hurriedly wiped her face before he turned to look at her.
He got up from the floor and replied: “How is that your business? You should be glad that your
boyfriend locked me in here to be killed by his hungry family.” Looking at her teary face for a split
second, he snorted but his heart was in pain.
“He’s not my boyfriend. And I’m not in on his plans.” She had no idea why she felt the need to defend
herself. She sat back on the edge of the bed with mixed feelings.
First, she was glad that Brian was here. Secondly, she was scared that he’d treat her with animosity.
Brian shifted his gaze to study her. “I don’t think so.”
“I was kidnapped.”
“Lies! Your chauffeur sent you here!” He said furiously. Although he knew that something was wrong,
he still blamed her for falling into the trap.
“I’m not lying! My…” she stopped talking. “You won’t believe me anyway, so what’s the point?” She
sounded sad and uninterested in continuing the argument. But then, a realization hit her and she
asked: “How did you know that?”
Brian didn’t answer that but instead went over to sit on the chair.
In the city.
News of a car explosion disturbed the city for a few minutes before everyone returned to their activities,
leaving the police to look into it
Most people believed it was another gang fight or probably one of the three musketeers trying to start
another fight But Inspector Fin didn’t see it that way.
For more than five hours, Inspector Fin didn’t leave the sitting room nor put down his laptop. He had
been trying to get hold of the CCTV footage around the area of the accident that happened yesterday
night but couldn’t find anything at all.
This wasn’t supposed to be his job, he was on holiday but had to take up the case after his juniors
reported the unclear matter to him this afternoon. They’ve been trying to obtain evidence since
yesterday around 10 Pmwhen the matter happened but failed, so they got him involved.
As his fingers tapped the keyboard repeatedly, Beverly walked into the sitting room with a tray
containing a few things that Inspector Fin didn’t think he needed.
A cup of coffee was placed on the side of the table, then a neck and shoulder massage gadget was
stuck down below his neck.
Without a word said, Beverly did her work and left with the tray, quiet enough to not disturb his work.
Inspector Fin’s gaze followed her line back until she entered the kitchen. His lips flattened into a thin
line before he shifted his gaze to the hot piping coffee.
He robbed his face and ruffled his hair in frustration. Last night, he told her again that he wanted to free
her from this relationship and she only replied; “ok”
She didn’t beg, cry, or tried to make him understand why they should be together and she even slept.
peacefully. It was the first time something like that happened and he couldn’t get her reaction off his
mind.
Even after waking up, she only greeted him and ever since, she hasn’t uttered another word.
Fin lowered his eyes to his laptop and started to do his work. She would revert back to herself, he
thought.
Inside the kitchen, Beverly pulled out her phone and immediately messaged someone.
Meanwhile, Jeslyn who was resting in her dorm room after just returning from the company heard the
beeping sound from her phone. She lazily picked it up and unlocked it.
Seeing who the message was from, she smiled and clicked on it.
[Sister–in–law, when can I speak to him? The silence is killing me]
“Don’t be a weakling. Endure it if you need your man unless you want to lose him to another woman…
So how is his reaction?”
[He has been looking at me weirdly since morning.]
“Hmm, that means he is lost and can’t place his fingers on your changes. At the moment, he’ll think
you’ll get back to how you were before, so he might not be concerned but after a week of ignoring
him, I’m sure he’ll approach you to know what’s wrong”
[ Ah! A week of ignoring him? Sister–in–law, isn’t that too long? What if he uses the opportunity to leave
me?]
“Then you’ll pack out without saying a word or leaving your new address.”
[Sister-in–law?!]
“Stop screaming with your messages, my phone will go deaf, ah.” Jeslyn joked. 2
