"Y-Yohan?"
"Cassie..."
They both looked down at his hands, still resting on her breasts.
"It’s not what it looks like—"
She didn’t even wait to hear what he had to say before screaming and landing a slap on his face.
Yohan took it without any complaints. With a red cheek, he stood outside the room waiting for her to call him back in.
’That girl doesn’t know how to treat a hero’ he sobbed.
When she finally let him back in, he had already gone to get so breakfast for the both of them.
"You see... you rolled off the bed and were holding so tightly, I was just trying to get you off," Yohan explained.
"I’m not so kind of pervert that goes around groping sleeping girls," he added with a small chuckle.
"How did I get here in the first place? Where did Freddie go? I don’t understand, the last thing I rember is..." she tried to think back, a confused expression on her gaze as her clouded mories made it difficult.
Yohan sighed, "what I’m about to tell you may sound unbelievable but it’s the truth..."
So just like that, Yohan went on to explain Freddie’s shady dealings. He simplified the supernatural parts—the mory loss, the things that sounded too unreal—but made sure she understood the point.
By the ti he finished, Cassie was stunned, staring at him without blinking for several seconds.
"How... how did you find out all this on your own?"
"I didn’t," Yohan said. "I had help. The girl who helped him trick those other girls... she confessed everything to ."
Cassie went quiet again, mulling over everything he had just said. It was the most unbelievable thing she had ever heard—but the fact that she was sitting in his room right now ant sothing had happened.
"Yohan... I’m sorry, but I can’t believe everything you just told unless I hear it from Freddie himself. I know you don’t like him, but you shouldn’t make up stories like that about a person."
Yohan let out a short, humorless laugh.
"You think I’m lying?"
"I know what kind of person Freddie is, he would never do sothing like that," she said firmly, as she stood up.
"Fine then, why don’t you call him and ask him. The police hasn’t gotten to him yet so maybe he’ll tell you himself,"
"I will, and I’ll make sure you apologize for everything you said," she stord out of Yohan’s house slamming the door behind her.
’She couldn’t even say thank you’ Yohan shook his head and sighed.
Well, it didn’t matter because that wasn’t why he chose to help her out in the first place.
’She’s family’
That was it.
It didn’t matter that they weren’t related by blood, they had known each other for almost their entire lives. And even if they weren’t close, Cassie had never really been cruel to him.
’How would I face Vivian if I let anything happen to her daughter’
That evening the news about what happened last night at the mansion had spread across the city like wildfire.
The arrest of the so-called ’executives’ was made official.
They almost didn’t even get them if not for the fact that they were videos on their phones. They enjoyed recording the horrible things they did to the won Freddie arranged for them.
So after finding the recordings there was no denying it.
"But that just leaves the question of why these girls don’t seem to rember anything from that day," the female local news anchor asked the bald man sitting beside her on the news panel.
"Well, as you know, there are so drugs with heavy hallucinogens that can cause you to lose chunks of your mory—"
"Do you think...."
Just then the female reporter frowned, "w-we are just receiving word that the three Congressn along with the C.E.O of Staple-elite Telecom company, that were just arrested last night were each found dead in a hotel room just a few hours ago"
"More news reaching us is that the man that was badly injured and rushed to the hospital was also killed, No further statents have been given"
The other four people sitting at the discussion table were equally just as horrified.
"How... How is this possible? They were only just arrested last night. It hasn’t even been 24 hours," The bald man mumbled...
"Surely this was a cover up," A slender man with a deep voice slamd his hand on the table. "The governnt is trying to hide sothing—"
"But what if it isn’t the governnt, what if they were assassinated by the leader of this whole operation," an elderly petite woman cut in, "An operation like this has organized cri written all over it. I’m sure who ever is in charge was scared of having his secrets exposed and killed them,"
"But that could still be soone in the governnt, how do you think they ended up at a hotel? The police had to be involved..." the slender man argued, and from then it went on to be too noisy for Yohan to follow.
Yet he couldn’t look away from the screen, ’Kai Lu is dead?!’
’Who could have done it?’ he wondered
Just like the reporters his first thought was the Chairman, after all he was the only one that escaped.
But it didn’t make any sense because Yohan knew he didn’t have the capacity to kill all of these people especially after they had already gotten them in custody.
"I heard the girls are from out of school" Anthony said pointing at the TV. "But they said they aren’t releasing any nas so we’ll never find out,"
Anthony pulled him out to a bar by the corner so they could get so drinks and look at pretty girls. Yohan wasn’t really interested but he ended up going in the end.
They hadn’t even been out for more than a few minutes before Cassie called him.
"Y-Yohan are you busy right now?"
"Not really, what is it?"
"Well... I was wondering if you could go sowhere with ,"
