When Darius returned, Ash was keeping watch over me in the living room. His vigilance left me nothing to do but play games in boredom.
It was then the sound of servants welcoming Darius home reached us. Darius ran to me and slapped my game console from my hands.
As I lifted my head, I suddenly found myself confronted by Darius's intense gaze.
I watched Darius's reddened eyes.A choking sensation emerged from my throat, numbing my brain. He demanded, "Where is Serena?"
So they hadn't found her. I couldn't help smirking, thinking how typical of the female lead to make everyone wait.
She won't easily show up until the plot reached its climax.
Maybe my smirk irked him, as Darius's grip grew stronger.
Yes, strangle me like this. Harder!
If I was strangle here in public. I would get rid of this body and returned home. What's more,this scoundrel would end up in jail and pay his price for deserting me.
As I cheered myself on silently, a roar erupted. Ash ran to us, aiming a punch at Darius's face. Darius dodged, loosening his hold around my neck.
I landed in a warm embrace...
