Chapter 69 - 68: Gentleman's Bar

At the Villa.

Daniella carried her backpack and rushed towards the door, she needs to meet up with Scott today, there was an emergency that she needs today.

Before she could reach her motorcycle, she saw Anders running towards her.

'What is it Anders?' she asked as he halted in front of her.

'Where are you going Ms. Chen?'

'Well, Selena doesn't have cla.s.ses today and the school said it will resume on Monday so,' she straightened her shoulder, 'I will be off for four days,' she turned to leave but, Anders grabbed her wrist.

With sweat on his forehead, Anders spoke, 'Could you please tell Mr. Su that you won't be around for four days?' he paused to bit his lips, his expression soured when he remembered his boss's order to always watch Daniella, 'He might scold me if you suddenly disappear.'

Daniella nodded with a blank face, she could see the fear in Ander's face and she doesn't understand why.

After Ander's freed her wrist, Daniella drove away.

-

After hours of driving, Daniella stopped at the warehouse.

It was the same as before though there's more dust while the pregnant spiders on the walls have had delivered their babies.

She blew out a sigh, the first thing she heard was the sound of footsteps emerging from the second room. Her head jerked in that direction and found Scott walking towards her with folders in his hand.

She rose an eyebrow, she remembered telling him that she won't take any more favors from people and, seeing Scott's expression tells her that they have a new customer.

'What is this emergency Scott?' she asked.

'Remember Dexter the transgender?' Scott chuckled after saying that in rhythm.

'Yeah?' Daniela said in a dull voice.

"He has been taken and I heard they were looking after a woman named Daisy, and we both know it's you."

Saying that Scott handed the folder to her. Daniella opened it with a flat face, she doesn't really care since most of the people who had asked a favor to her don't know her face, she always meets those people with a mask on her face, and the only thing they could see was her eyes and lips.

But she made an exemption to Dexter, she trusted her since she saw how pitiful her life was. His father treated her like a person with deceased, she got thrown out of her house after she came out and told his parents that she's gay.

She looked at the photos in the folder, it had the shot of Dexter's ruined face.

Dexter was n.a.k.e.d, bruises and handprints over her body showed that she had been destroyed.

Daniella shut her eyes, with cold heart, she handed the folder back to Scott.

"This is your emergency?"

Scott nodded, "yes, you and Dexter became close after the surgery so I thought you would want to help her," he replied.

Daniella rose an eyebrow in amus.e.m.e.nt.

"Scott tell me what am I wearing?"

Scott scanned his eyes on Daniella's s.h.i.+rt and replied, "grey s.h.i.+rt and Jeans?"

Daniella nodded, "tell me, am I f.u.c.k.i.n.g wearing a Cape?" she got up, face wrinkling with annoyance, "do I look like wonder woman or supergirl?" she took the folder from him and rolled it. She tiptoed and repeatedly hit his head with the folder.

"I am not a superhero, ok? I do have a s.e.xy body of a superhero but my height wouldn't pa.s.s so," she gave the folder back to him vigorously, "stop calling me for a nonsense report," she walked past Scott, going forward the door.

"But Dexter knows your face."

Daniella sighed, Scott has a point, Dexter could point out her exact location and they even had photos together.

"Why did they take her?" she decided to stay, so she turned and went back to her previous chair.

Relief registered on Scott's face, he gave a faint smile and excitedly opened the second folder.

"Who's this b.a.s.t.a.r.d that was looking for me?" she asked.

"I heard the new owner of the Gentleman's Bar," Scott opened the folder and handed her the photos.

"His name is Ken Chu, current leader of the Blue Dragon gang," he paused, "some people were looking after Senator Villa and his last location was his bar so," he gave her another paper which had the police report, "his bar is under investigation and since we didn't delete the camera's from before, the boss realized that it was Dexter who let you have access to the room where Senator Villa disappeared."

Daniella shut her eyes, she could feel every drop of the blood coming out of her private part and it was excruciating.

She sighed, the last thing she wanted was to go around with guns but right now, she doesn't have a choice.

"So, the Gentleman's Bar owner wants me?" she opened her eyes and coldly stared at Scott.

"Yes."

She nodded, lowered her eyes on the photos.

"d.a.m.n it!" she cursed out, realizing the Ken Chu that was looking for her was the same man she met in the elevator.

"Where is Dexter?" she asked.

Scott immediately handed her the tablet, with the bar's blueprint, "He's on the third floor, the same room where Senator Villa disappeared," he replied.

"Fine, I will take Dexter and you set the fire alarm," she instructed, "Once everyone is out, sneak inside and throw a bomb."

Scott's hand, closing the folder froze upon hearing it, he blinked and looked at Daniella.

"Do we really need to blow it?" he asked in shock.

Daniella shrugged casually, "I need to send him a message to stop looking for me. Once he sees that I got Dexter and exploded his bar if he has a brain, he will get my message," she smiled at her friend, while her hand took the guitar case hanging on the wall.

She opened it; her smile faded when she saw the same rifle she had when she first met Evan.

Her chest rose and fell with rapid breaths, she knows that the moment Evan will kiss her, the man might see this part of her memory.

She got up, put on her mask and carried the guitar case on her back.

She will need to avoid Evan, especially kissing him; she had seen some of his memory with Ken Chu and she's certain that he will take his friend's side than hers.

"What if Ken Chu doesn't stop?" she could hear the concern in Scott's voice and she understands it, after all, Ken Chu was not a normal businessman, he has connections to the high people in the country and if he wants, he will find her in no time.

She sighed, "If he does, call that senate judge that owes us a favor. Tell him to talk to Ken Chu and ask him to leave me alone."
