LOGINKian As we sat there, Cassian took his phone out of his coat pocket. Someone was calling him, so he answered.“Okay,” he said after listening to the caller for a few seconds before ending the call.Once the call ended, he turned to look at me. “You’ll have to go home alone because I have an important meeting to attend. I need to hurry back to the company.”“Okay, you can go. I don’t mind,” I replied.The driver dropped Cassian off at his company first before taking me home. I needed to find an underground fighting arena where I could earn some money. However, since Cassian had accompanied me, I hadn’t gotten the chance to look for one. And now, I was back home without accomplishing anything.After returning home, I learned that Dad and Lila had gone on a date. That was why I decided to take the kid to my room. He hadn’t wanted the maids to clean him up, which meant I would have to do it myself.Once we entered my room, I closed the door behind us.“Finally, we’re alone, Host. Do you
Kian My eyes darted toward the window, where the scream had come from.“What was that?” I murmured under my breath, peering outside. I had no idea who had screamed or what was happening out there.Then I spotted a child running for his life. I immediately rose from my chair and stared out the window, only to witness one of the restaurant staff members chasing the boy with a metal steak rod in his hand. The little boy was running desperately, clearly trying to escape.Seeing that, I couldn't simply sit there and do nothing. I glanced around and spotted a door leading to the back of the restaurant. Without wasting another second, I hurried through it. By the time I reached them, the staff member had already caught the child and thrown him to the ground. He raised the metal rod, preparing to strike the boy, but I lunged forward and snatched it out of his hand.“What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to kill this innocent child? Why would you do something like this in the first plac
Kian Since we were going to eat together, the driver was taking us to the restaurant. I kept looking out of the window. That's when I suddenly noticed a car following us. It was a black car, and it was maintaining some distance from our car. It wasn't overtaking us or trying to take another route. It was simply following us from behind. “That car is following us,” I said.“I know. And you don't need to worry because those are my bodyguards. They're following us to protect us, so don't be afraid.”I stared at him because it hadn't occurred to me that the car might belong to his bodyguards. Well, not that I cared. I simply looked out of the window again. Even though I could hear Cassian calling me from behind, I didn't want to talk to him. He had been acting so smart in front of me. How dare he?Meanwhile, the car stopped in front of the restaurant. It wasn't too big, but it wasn't small either. It was a famous restaurant, and many people posted about it online. I had finally gotten th
Kian “You?” Both my eyebrows rose. “Oh, yes. It's your house, so it's obvious that I'm the outsider here. So, I'm leaving.” I stood up from the bench and was about to leave, passing by him. But then he grabbed my hand. I quickly jerked his hand away. That's when I realized that the boxing skills I had learned and all my strength were still with me. I wasn't weak anymore.“Why leave? Just stay. We can both enjoy the night scenery.”“Well, Cassian, I don't like sitting with someone I met for the first time today. So, pardon me,” I said before leaving.Once I returned to my room, I threw myself onto the bed and closed my eyes. I was feeling tired, after all.The next moment I opened my eyes, it was already daytime. Sunlight was streaming in through the window, and I realized that I had fallen asleep when I closed my eyes last night. I quickly sat up on the bed, and that's when I heard a knock at the door. I went to open it, and when I did, I saw Cassian standing there. He was wearing a
Kian The next moment, when I opened my eyes again, a bright light shone directly into them, stinging my eyes. I blinked several times, and as my vision gradually cleared, I finally saw where I was. I was shocked. I was sitting on the clouds, surrounded by nothing but open air. I was literally floating in the sky. I felt something soft beneath me, so I looked down and saw fluffy white clouds beneath me. There were clouds all around me, too. I had no idea why I was in the sky. My dad was dead, and I had gone insane after that. I still needed to kill that woman who had murdered him. She didn't deserve to be alive. As I was thinking about it, a cloud with eyes and a nose suddenly appeared in front of me. It even looked kind of cute, and its lips were curved into a smile. Seeing this, I became certain that I was dreaming. After all, I had passed out after that doctor gave me an injection. Don't tell me I died? Then why was I alone here in this afterlife? Where was Dad? “My pitiful hu
Kian “I don't know what kind of delusion you're having right now, but I won't meet Cassian at all. And I don't care whether he's alive or dead. What does that have to do with me? It's none of my business. So please, leave here as well,” I said directly. I stared at her, making it clear that we weren't going to treat her kindly from now on. Even my dad was glaring at her. She didn't say anything. Instead, she simply stepped forward toward Dad and took his hand. But Dad immediately jerked his hand away. “Don't touch me with your dirty hands, and leave here right now,” he said. I was watching them when, in a swift movement, she plunged the knife into my dad's stomach. My eyes widened, and my body froze at the sight. It felt almost unreal, as if I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I rushed forward and pushed her away from my dad, but before I could do so, she had already twisted the knife twice. Blood poured from my dad's stomach. I was furious, but all I wanted was to save him. I
