CHAPTER 2

"Where are you going?"

Bella looked at the man who was standing in front of her with a flat gaze. Bella is sure this person is one of them. Or maybe their leader?

"Where is your boss?" asked the man.

"He's upstairs," Bella said, glancing at the second floor of the Eflic bar.

There was no time for Bella. She had to get Sean to the hospital immediately. But, the man who was standing in front of her seemed to be blocking her, didn't want Bella to come out.

"Excuse me sir." Bella tried to be polite to the man she thought was handsome. Not. He sure is handsome, really.

The man grinned, staring at Bella's typical bartender appearance at an Eflic bar.

"No," replied the man.

Bella widened her eyes as the handsome man drew closer to her.

"Take me to your boss.” The man pleaded.

"Don't you see I'm in a hurry right now?" Bella snapped at the man. It doesn't matter if the guy gets offended or not. Hers main priority right now was to save Sean.

The man did not answer. However, it still prevented Bella from stepping out.

"You can ask others to escort you, sir."

The handsome man narrowed his lips.

"But what I want is you, no one else.” He pointed at Bella.

Disrespectfully the man grabbed Bella's chin and brought him face closer. Makes Bella quickly back her head to avoid things she doesn't want.

"What the hell are you!" Bella snapped at the grinning man.

The sound of snapping fingers produced by the man in white made several people in black there come forward.

"Yes, chairman?" They said.

"Take that man to the hospital." He said in a tone of indisputable order.

They bowed for a while, before taking over Sean from Bella, who was now surprised by his attitude.

"There is no more reason for you to refuse my request."

Bella looked at the strange man for a moment. Before heaving a sigh of relief when Sean has received help from his men. As Bella thought, that man was the superior of the group of men earlier.

"Please follow me, sir."

Bella turned around, asking the man to follow her from behind.

"So this is how you welcome guests? Just silent?"

The sarcastic words that the terrible man uttered made Austin, the boss of the Eflic bar quickly looked up. Staring at the man with that with a pitiful gaze.

"Please give me another week, sir." Austin said pleadingly.

Bella doesn't understand what's going on. Suddenly the boss begged the person hopefully. All Bella did was stand by the door, waiting for the two of them to finish talking. Didn't mean to eavesdrop, of course. However, she was simply carrying out the orders of the arrogant man sitting in front of hers boss.

"Another week. That's what you said one week ago," hissed the man. Ignoring Austin's increasingly terrified face.

"I'm going to destroy this bar."

Suddenly, the words of the man made Bella and Austin widened their eyes.

Seriously?!

"No ... no sir. Please don't, this bar is the only best bar in Los Angeles." Austin begged. He was even willing to kneel before the man, still with him full wishes.

"Boss!" shouted Bella. She couldn't bear to see her boss acting like that.

Bella immediately walked over to Austin, begging hers boss to sit back down.

"What did our boss do to make you like that ?!"

The handsome man narrowed his lips. Staring at Bella with a judgmental look.

"Bella ..." Austin said warning the girl to keep her attitude.

A low sigh rang out from the man's thin mouth.

"So her name is ... Bella?" The man grinned viciously.

"Yes ... yes sir." Austin replied. He could feel the terrible thing that was going to happen to Bella once the terrible man found out her name.

"Bella come downstairs." Austin chided the only girl in the room. Not without reason Austin told Bella to come out. He didn't want the young girl to have the things he didn't want.

Bella seemed to want to refuse. However, the meaningful look her boss gave her kept Bella from making a sound.

Austin let out a sigh of relief at the sight.

Bella's hand almost touched the doorknob. Before the baritone sound produced by the man in front of Austin had Austin and Bella froze.

"Who gave you permission to leave?"

Bella froze on the spot, and Austin got cold sweat from his forehead.

"You don't want to know what will happen to your boss what if he dies this second?"

Bella turned around quickly. Staring at the man with a look of disbelief.

"You wouldn't dare." Bella said quietly. To which the man's cruel grin replied.

"Oh? Name a reason I don't dare to kill Austin now."

Bella widened her eyes when she saw the crazy man take out a gun from inside the suit. That's open a toy gun! It really is a firearm. Why does that man have it? As far as Bella Los Angeles knows, it does not allow its citizens to play with firearms carelessly.

So? What's in that guy's hand now?

The reason is only one, that man is not just anyone!

"There are three bullets in this gun. I think that's enough to shoot them into your two heads." The man said sadistically. Of course with a deadly smile etched on his lips.

"Not sir. Let Bella go." Austin tried to shift the man's focus from Bella.

"Shut up. I'm not talking to you."

The man stood up and walked over to Bella, who was now scared to death. Then gently touched Bella's cheek, sending a strange vibration to Bella at that time.

"Sir..."

The man did not answer. Instead, he lowered the sweep of his hand to the back of the chin, then brought it forward right on the man's thin lips.

Muach.

"I'll take Bella with me."
