Genius Girl

Chapter 183 - 183: Untitled

Sebastian groaned as he stared at the monitor of his laptop. He has been typing non-stop to create an article about Aaron's death.

When he finally finished the article with the title 'A man jumped off of the Su Building after he caught his wife infidelity.'

He pressed the submit button and leaned his head on the couch. He was sitting on the floor while Robert was sitting on the couch.

"It's done," he said and gave the laptop to Robert. He was aware of what happened and he understood why Daniella killed those men but he could not understand why she did not ask for their help in disposing the body.

"Where is she?" he asked Robert.

Robert blew out a sigh and took his phone out. He tracked the chip Daniella has in her brain and found out that she was in the cemetery.

"Probably burying the man," he said with exhaustion and locked his phone. He did not know what to feel. Since he knew Daniella, the woman has never done anything to break her principle about killing a person even though her life or her friend's life were at risk.

"Do you think she's alright?" Scott asked again. He was feeling anxious about Daniella, he knew that she must be feeling down for killing a man.

Shrugging his shoulder Robert said, "she will be fine. It's for Evan and we both know that she will do everything for him," he paused as his face darkened, "even if it meant forgiving her enemy and changing her perspective in life."

Scott went silent by Robert's bitter tone. To him, forgiving someone who destroyed your family was not acceptable and he would like to help Robert to get his revenge but Daniella had done so much for him. He will do everything for her and follow all her orders.

He sighed and sat next to Robert, lay both elbows on his laps as he turned to look at his friend.

"Are you planning to revenge your father?"

Robert shook his head instantly, "Daniella deserves to be happy if it meant forgetting the revenge, I will do it for her."

Scott nodded, he got up when he heard a car engine outside.

"Do you think its Daniella?" Scott asked.

Robert answered him with a half shrug and followed Scott who was walking towards the door.

"How is Evan?"

Scott had just opened the door when Daniella suddenly appeared and asked about Evan. Her face was muddy and had a bloodstain while her clothes looked like she swam in the mud.

"He woke up an hour ago but he fell asleep again."

Daniella walked past her friend and rushed upstairs, leaving her friends with Ken.

--

Claire stared at Evan, he woke up again despite the anesthesia in his body.

"Evan, why don't you rest?" Claire gently placed a hand on his shoulder and patted it lightly, "Daniella will be here soon."

Evan nodded and laid back. The pain in his stomach was gone but he felt slightly drowsy. He wanted to see Daniella. Since she's not back yet, he decided to surrender and sleep.

As he was about to close his eyes, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"BABE!"

That voice, it made Evan opened his eyes and turned to the source.

He furrowed his eyebrows as he scanned Daniella. She was full of mud and blood, it looked like she has been in a war.

A slight pain throbbed his head when he tried to get up.

"Don't get up," Daniella said to him so he stayed on the bed.

He smiled when Daniella reached the bed, on her muddy face was a smile enough to ease his pain.

"Why are so muddy?" he asked in a weak voice.

Daniella giggled, "unfortunately, your dear Ken doesn't know how to dig so I need to do it myself."

He chuckled and when he did a slight pain throbbed in his stomach.

"Why did you not ask your friends?" He wanted to touch her face but Daniella shook her head when he tried to lift his hand.

"You need to rest Evan, and my friends are busy so I have to do it myself."

His smile disappeared, he felt that she was lying and he did not know why. Robert has been friends with her for so long time, and she was always comfortable around him.

"I am going to clean up and come back here," when he heard that angelic sweet voice again, Evan's thought came back to the reality.

Daniella walked out of the room. She proceeded to Claire's bedroom to clean herself.

As soon as she closed the door of the bedroom and when she was finally alone Daniella's eyes suddenly glistened with tears.

Her eyelashes flickered and a pair of tears fell from her eyes. Her heart was being gripped by a huge hand, it was hurting her so much.

She gulped hard and strode towards the bathroom like a zombie. She did not regret killing them but she regretted not killing the people she should have killed in the past.

One by one, she removed the dirty clothes from her body then turned on the shower and went under it.

The mud from her hair slid down to her body, the blood on her skin has been washed away as well.

Water and tears mixed in the water. She liked to cry in the shower, she laughed at herself.

Why? She asked herself. How can she cry so much? Since she became Evan's girlfriend, she did nothing but cry in the shower.

So many why's in her mind. Why did she not notice the gun Aaron was holding, he was blind how could he have shot Evan.

She froze by the thought.

'was he blind?' she asked herself.

Her mind conflicted with her thought, she did not really focus on Aaron so much as she was too busy with her life.

"Fine. I will not kill or torture you but you need to tell me everything you know about the bas.e.m.e.nt."

She recited the word she said to Aaron and immediately shut her eyes.

Why did I say that? She said in her mind. Her hand went up to her hair and pulled them angrily.

Why?

If she just held him and tied him up like she always did, Evan wouldn't get shot and hurt.

Her knees became weak, she squatted onto the tub and coughed hard.

A bitter feeling arose in her stomach, going all the way up to her throat and before she knew, her lips had parted to puke.

She couched hard once again, wipe her lips with her palm and got up.

She cleaned herself once again, and as she left the bathroom her face was dark as the empty forest in the night.
