Chapter 69

1691 Words
I was woken up by the cold. A gust of cold wind blew through, and I shivered uncontrollably. I opened my drowsy eyes and found that I was lying in front of my district fully n***d. I also had the card from this morning hanging around my neck. On the card was written ‘I am gay, 50 bucks for a pop’. This discovery dazzled me a little. At that moment, I did not understand whether I was in a dream or reality. I pinched my thigh hard and it hurt a lot. So, I was not dreaming. My face immediately darkened. Mindy must have done this. That woman was so petty. I had only played some tricks to fool her and she placed me in front of the district in the middle of the night? Was this something done by a decent f*cking human? I pulled the blanket closer to me and went back to the district angrily. I was prepared to settle debts with Mindy. I did not even knock on her door. Instead, I kicked open Mindy’s door. Mindy was very alert. When her door was kicked open, she bent down and held a dagger in her hands. When she saw that it was me, she let down her guard and asked with a yawn, “What are you doing here?” “I should be the one asking you this. What the hell are you trying to do? It’s the middle of the night and you poisoned me unconscious to put me in the middle of the road. What are you trying to do?” “Nothing. Just like you said, I’ll grant you freedom if you were to hang the card around your neck and stay at the entrance of the district for an hour. You’re unaware so I could only help you fulfill your promise,” Mindy said with a giggle. “Sis, you’re my bodyguard. My bodyguard! Is this something a f*cking bodyguard does? I think you’re the most dangerous to me whenever there’s no danger!” “Go complain to the higher-ups then. If you can get someone to replace me, then everyone will be happy. I hate you anyway, you good-for-nothing parvenu.” “You want to leave? It’s not that easy. You stripped me n***d so not only do I want to do the same to you, I also want to do unspeakable things to you,” I said angrily. However, when Mindy heard that, not only was she not scared, instead, she started laughing. “Do it if you can. If you have the balls to do that, I might even respect you a little.” After she said that, she spread her legs like she was provoking me. I knew she was trying to enrage me. However, I had already said that so it would be embarrassing if I did not do so. I took a step forward to pretend to push her down. However, the moment I took a step forward, a crossbow suddenly appeared in her hands and it was aiming directly at my crotch. I immediately felt a chill in my crotch and I stood there timidly, not daring to move. “Um, put that thing away. Those things don’t have eyes so it won’t be good if you hurt me accidentally.” “Hehe, why are you so cowardly now? Didn’t you want to do unspeakable things to me? Come on! I want to see if you have the ability to do so,” Mindy said with a cold smile. “It’s just a joke. I was just joking. Why are you so serious? Put it away. We’re even after what happened today, okay?” “You’re pretty smart.” Mindy put away the crossbow. “Next time, you should listen to my orders obediently and I promise nothing will happen to you. However, if you decided to pull tricks like yesterday, don’t blame me for being cruel. Also, don’t think you can make me submit to you just because you have a few extra coins. Your tricks won’t work on me.” “Alright, anything you say.” How would I dare to not agree after she scared me like that. However, I still had some hardships in my heart that I could not say out loud. They did not get me a bodyguard, they clearly got me a menace, okay? Plus, it was the kind that was easy to get but not easy to get rid of. “Alright, I’m sleepy and I want to go to bed. Close the door and leave,” Mindy said. “Okay.” After leaving Mindy’s house, I went back to my house. At this moment, I noticed that my back was drenched with sweat. Damn it, this woman was not playing by the book at all! Plus, she did not have the awareness of a bodyguard. I had to think of a way to send this god of misfortune on her way! … I took a hot shower after I went back to my room. After I warmed up my body, I lay on my bed and fell asleep again comfortably. When I woke up, it was already ten in the morning and Montana had left for school. After eating a simple breakfast, I got ready to go to school as well. However, I ran into Mindy the moment I stepped out of the door. “What are you doing?” I looked at her vigilantly. After what happened last night, I was genuinely terrified of her. “I’m protecting you on your way to school,” she said. “No need, in my opinion, I can be considered safe whenever you’re not by my side,” I said fearfully. “Look at how cowardly you are. Don’t worry. I received a task to protect you so I won’t do anything to you. Even though I might teach you a lesson sometimes, it’s much better than losing your life, right?” “No need. I’m just a student so my life won’t be in any danger.” “Not necessary,” Mindy said seriously. “Why? Did you receive any news saying that someone wants to harm me?” I asked curiously. “Don’t ask. I won’t tell you anyway. In short you’re not as safe as you imagine. Come on, class is about to start soon.” … Since I lived near to school, we went on foot. On the way, Mindy said, “I want to apologize to you about what happened last night. I was over the line.” “Hmm?” Mindy apologized and I was shocked by this. “It’s so rare for you to realize your mistakes. Does everyone from Nocturna have such a strange personality?” “Actually, I’m the one who’s the most easy-going. If they asked the other ladies to come, your life will be even worse than it is right now…” “Really? Do I need to thank you?” “You do. Right now, I also know a piece of news that you might be more concerned about. Your girlfriend is in danger.” “Montana? Isn’t she at school? What kind of danger is she in?” I asked nervously. “It’s not Montana.” “Who? Nadia?” I asked in astonishment. “Not Nadia,” Mindy said, feeling a little speechless. “Who is it then?” “Why? Do you have so many girlfriends that you can’t even remember, you scumbag? Do you want me to remind you who you met last night?” “Yvette? What’s wrong with her?” I asked curiously. No way, she was just a real estate agent, what kind of danger would she be in? “I don’t know the details. My job is just to protect you. As for the rest, I just happened to ask about it, that’s all.” “Alright, thanks. I’m going to save her now. I’m not going to school, please help me ask for leave.” After I said that, I stopped in my tracks and took out my phone to call Yvette. However, all my calls were hung up. What was going on? The uneasiness in my heart was getting more and more intense. Who would want to conspire against Yvette? At this moment, I remembered how Billy was looking at Yvette, those eyes were filled with intense possessiveness. I did not dare to dilly-dally once I thought about this. I took out my phone and called Lorne. “Lorne, I’m at the entrance of my school. Please drive over right now.” “Alright.” Lorne was definitely loyal to me. He did not even ask what happened before he immediately agreed. More than ten minutes later, I arrived at Yvette’s house in Lorne’s Land Rover. When Rosa saw me, she was surprised. “Mr. Lang, why are you here?” I did not have time to exchange pleasantries with her and asked anxiously, “Where is Yvette?” “Her sister took her away and said she wants to drive Yvette to work. What’s wrong?” Rosa asked. “Nothing.” I did not tell Rosa my guesses so that she would not worry. “I can’t get through to her phone so I came to have a look. Since she’s at work, then I’ll go look for her at her office.” I left as soon as I said that. … Inside Lorne’s car. While I asked Lorne to drive, I called Macy. “Mr. Lang, why are you calling me?” On the other end of the phone, Macy asked happily. “Stop bullsh*ting, did Yvette come to work today?” “Yvette? No. It’s so strange. She’s never been late before but she is not here at this hour. She didn’t even request leave and she’s not in the office.” “Alright, I got it. If she comes into office, call me immediately.” After I hung up, my face became gloomier and gloomier. Something bad did happen to Yvette!
