Chapter 219

After Evan walked inside the villa, his eyes immediately went narrowed. His friends were sitting in the living room comfortably, while Ken has amusement written all over his face, Glen was frowning at him. 

Bewildered by what's happening, Evan walked closer to them. He stopped when he noticed Danny running towards him with a glass full of ice cream in his hand. 

He prepared a smile for him. Then he bent down placing both palms on his knees. 

\"How are you, Danny?\" He cheerfully asked the boy. His little face reminded him of Daniella, now that he knew that truth about the boy, he could not help but like him even more. 

The boy halted in front of him, innocence shone in his eyes. He took a spoonful of ice cream and shove it in his mouth.  

A plucking sound slightly roared from the boy's little lips as he separated the spoon from his mouth. Then he ran his little tongue over his lips to get the remaining ice cream. 

When Danny was satisfied, he titled his head. He looked like a confused little owl, a line appeared in between his short brows. 

\"uncle Evan are you really going to marry her?\" then he pointed a finger at the door where he saw Camille. 

Evan turned to where he was pointing and then he saw Camille who had just opened the door to enter. Her eyes were puffed and glossy, while her nose was red from crying. 

He sighed and nodded, \"yes.\" 

The confusion on Danny's face faded, and soon his expression brightened up. 

\"Really?\" surprised strained his voice the boy accidentally dropped the cup he was holding despite that his eyes remained staring at Evan with disbelief. 

\"Does it mean my daddy can marry her now?\" 

Everyone looked at the boy, pure innocence glistened in his eyes.  

Evan swallowed hard. In this tight situation, he became speechless. 

His eyelashes flickered simultaneously with Danny. He would like to say no but he didn't want to confuse the boy. 

\"You are asking the wrong person Danny.\" 

The boy remained silent, he kept blinking still confused by his answer. 

Eventually, the boy nodded, then he touched the flip phone hanging in his neck and flipped it opened. 

\"I will ask her then.\" 

Surprised by Danny's reply, Evan immediately snatched the phone from him and in the process, he pulled the little boy's body by the lace which was attached to the phone causing for his little body to fall down. 

Evan went panicked. He quickly carried him in his arm and coaxed the little boy who started crying. 

\"Do you hate me Uncle Evan?\" the boy yelled in between his sobs. 

Evan ruffled his hair, \"no Danny. It was a mistake,\" he rocked his body with the boy in his arm, \"what about another bowl of ice cream?\" 

Inside he prayed for the boy to agree. Right now, all he wanted to be was for him to accept his offer. 


And seemed like his innocent brain has forgotten what happened. His eyes shone with excitement as he ran back to the kitchen. 

Evan shook his head, he straightened his back and walked towards Ken and Glen who was staring at him with a blank face. 

\"what are you two doing here?\" he picked up one of the glasses with a little whiskey and finished it in one gulp. Then he lay the glass down onto the table and wiped his lips with a thumb. 

Glen shrugged as he discreetly threw a peek at Camille walking towards them. 

\"Where is Daniella?\" he asked. 

Evan sat down on the single sofa while Ken and Glen remained sitting on the long couch, \"I don't know. We broke up so her whereabouts is none of my business.\" 

Camille narrowed her eyes upon hearing it. He was using his cold voice, he has no emotion. 

Somehow, the pain she felt earlier disappeared. She gulped hard while a small smile flashed on her lips. 

When Ken saw the bright smile on Camille's lips, his face screwed up. He rose from his seat and walked closer to her. 

\"You are marrying my friend right,\" he asked with creased brows. 

Surprised by Ken's sudden question, Camille became speechless. She nodded once eventually while a look of confusion flashed on her face, making her head tilted. 

Ken took a long sigh, then he smiled and it shocked everyone in the room especially Evan. 

\"let's talk outside,\" saying that, he walked past her without excusing himself to his friends.  

Camille followed him, still perplexed with the smile she got from him. 

He was that kind of person who was stingy with his emotion so his smile shook all the nerves in her body. 

After Camille and Ken disappeared. Evan occupied the seat of the latter, his face became even more serious as he faced his friend. 

\"Follow me.\" 

Glen rose a brow in confusion, still, he got up and followed Evan upstairs. 

They ended in the master bedroom, Evan entered the bathroom and he just followed him. 

Evan stretched a hand and turned on the tap, the water flushing enveloped the whole bathroom. 

\"Bing confirmed that Ken's and your house are also bugged,\" he paused and opened the drawer below the bathroom sink. Then he shoved his hand inside and took out a phone. A phone which Glen hasn't seen in his whole life. 

\"Bing gave me this phone. I am currently communicating with him through this since out phones are big as well.\" 

Glen's eyes widened, bewildered and shocked. 

\"What do you mean bugged?\" 

Evan pressed his lips tightly before taking a long sigh. 

\"Someone is watching us. Who, I don't know but it must have something to do with Daniella.\" 

\"Is that why you broke up with her?\" 

Evan gave a half-shrug as a response. 

\"Does she know about this?\" 

Evan shook his head this time. 

Blowing a long sigh, Glen rested both palms on his hips, disbelief registered on his face. 

\"Why didn't you tell her this?\" he asked with a slightly raised voice. 

\"I met her father and he wanted me to break up with her so she can finish Roman Lee.\" 

With that, Glen's hand dropped in his side. Lips slightly parted in shock. 

\"Are you stupid? Why would you listen to him?\" 

Evan absently shook his head, his feet moved to walk backwards until his legs bumped the toilet, then he sat down, brushed his palms over his face going up to his hair. 

\"I need to Glen. I need to be close to him.\" 

Glen let out a loud laugh, though it was full of bitterness and mock. 

\"so, let me make this clear. You broke up with her because her father said so?\" 

Evan nodded, \"yeah,\" he sighed heavily and hid the phone under the sink again. 

\"There must be a reason why he wanted Daniella to end Roman Lee.\" 

Glen widened his eyes, \"yeah, of course, Roman Lee locked up his kids and,\" he stopped when he suddenly thought of something. 

\"Wait, I am a father too. Why would I let my kid kill a man if I can do it myself.\" 

Evan got up, his eyes squinted as he placed a hand on Evan's shoulder. 

\"That's why I broke up with Daniella, Glen. He was very dubious.\" 

Glen now understood his point but he still couldn't understand why he broke up with her. 

\"Why would his father want her to kill Roman?\" 

Evan once again reached out for the tap and switched it to maximum and the sound of the water rushing went louder. 

He moved closer to Glen, \"I don't know but he has the pendant that Selena gave to Kierry.\" 

Glen blinked his eyes, it could have been coincident that Daniella's father has the same pendant as Kierry so he can't still understand his point. 

\"Maybe they went to the same jewellery store.\" 

Evan's face poker upon hearing his tone. He sounded like a therapist talking to a mental patient. 

\"The pendant has an initial S curved in it. That initial is personally curved by Selena, also,\" Evan paused, his heart pulverized as he thought of the day they buried Kierry, \"we buried that necklace next to Kierry's body. So, how did it end up in his hands?\" 

Glen stared at Evan's serious face. Seemed like different thoughts were running in his mind, tangling everything to confuse him. 

Evan hasn't told him why Daniella and her brother were locked up in the basement and he thought this was the best time to know it. 

\"Maybe they know each other.\" 

\"I asked him that,\" Evan replied, \"and he said he doesn't know her.\" 

The confusion in Glen's mind became wider by the time passed. He has so many questions but they can't stay in the bathroom for so long time or else people might think something was going on between them. 

\"Let's just tell this to Daniella alright? We can go somewhere.\" 

Evan quickly shook his head, \"Arthur is watching me so I need to be careful. I just need Daniella to kiss me and she will understand everything. Or maybe she can meet Arthur so we will know what his real intentions are.\" 

Glen was still baffled as he nodded his head. 

\"I doubt Daniella would want to kiss you right now or probably even see your face and do you really think Arthur will tell her everything if they meet?\" nose wrinkling, Glen asked with light and casual tone. 

\"I doubt it but she can read his mind.\" 

Glen's face tense up, all the confusion and emotion in his face faded. And like a statue, his whole body stiffened. 

It took some time before he was able to get himself together. He blinked repeatedly and looked at his friend who seemed to have lost his mind. 

\"I think you should see Amy. I can ask Ken to cancel his appointment so you can see his shrink.\" 

Evan's face flattened. He suddenly remembered that he hasn't told Glen about Daniella's capability as well as how her family died. 

He gulped hard, turned off the tap and sat on the floor, back leaning against the toilet bowl, he patted the space next to him, asking him to sit down.  

Glen obediently occupied the chair next to him. He folded one of his legs with a knee up and rested his arm on it. 

\"Daniella and her twin were locked up in that basement because of the chip in their brain. That chip allows them to see people's mind and read their thoughts.\" 

Glen's lips slightly parted with those revelations. He wanted to ask but he decided to let Evan speak. 

As he listened to everything he said, his eyes widened while the confusion in his mind slowly disappeared. 

So, that was the reason why they were locked up.  

Glen sighed as he continued listening to Evan's words. Some of his questions were answered while the rest remained a question.
