The distinctive fragrance made Valerie stretch her body. She blinked and for some reason her whole body ached all over, as if she had been on a long journey.She is on the bed… her memory tried to scramble, and then she remembered how she had been wrestling on the bed, trying to fight Jose's will to take her somewhere. She remembers that Jose covered her mouth, but after that she doesn't remember anything else.Her fingers moved to rub the sheets under her body and she realized that this sheet was different from the usual. Valerie gasped and widened her eyes, trying to break through the darkness that surrounded this room.This wasn't the room she was placed in before, this was a different room! Valerie sat down and looked around. As soon as her eyes adapted to the darkness, she was able to gaze around the dim surroundings.Where is she now?Valerie started to panic. She got up from the bed, faintly heard a strange sound in the distance, the sound of the waves crashing.The sound of t

George drove the car confused and took many deep breaths. When he was at the traffic light, he stopped and turned his head, staring at May who repeatedly stole glances at him.“Something's weird, I know that. There seems to be something hidden behind his friendly attitude.”“Maybe you were too suspicious of him, George.” The woman looked at her fellow agent and boss with a look full of meaning. “He is just a flirtatious old man.”George studied everything. He once again took a deep breath. Maybe it was he who was too suspicious, maybe it was George's urge to find Valerie that made him push all the clues.“You are right, May, I am sorry. This mission had too much influence on my emotions.”May gave him an understanding look. “I understand, George.”However, when she turned her face away from his sight, May could not hide her smile. Now that everything is in order, George will never be able to find Valerie. Later, when he accepts the fact that there is no hope between him and Valerie, t

“You must come down, Miss Valerie. Mr. Jose would like to meet you for dinner downstairs.”Don entered the room and half gave a formal bow to Valerie. She gave him a huffed look. So That is why all of a sudden the servants came and brought her this pretty light blue dress which was quite formal. She was forced to wear it because no other dress was provided for her in this room.“I do not want to come down,” muttered Valerie stubbornly, not wanting to just let that man get what he wanted. Don looked at Valerie speculatively then began to take out his fishing rod.“You really do not want to quit? Maybe this is your only chance to get out of this room. do not you feel bored? Besides, I am also worried if you refuse Mr. Jose's invitation to dinner. He will decide to keep you locked up in this room and you will not have a chance to go out again.”This old man has a point too, Valerie was stunned. She was tired of being in the room all the time. When holding her, Jose was really cruel and l

George poured a cup of strong black coffee from the coffee maker. A fragrant aroma immediately wafted into the air, filling the room. He glanced at Valerie.The woman was crying hysterically, her condition was so confused that George thought he should take Valerie to a psychiatrist. The incident earlier was probably too soul-shaking.The sound of a car was heard in front of his house, making him immediately peek outside with caution. He sighed when he saw Charlotte who got out of the taxi. Before she knocked on the door, George had opened the door and greeted her.“Where is Valerie?” Charlotte peered in trying to find. George tilted his body, letting her in.“On the sofa, she fell asleep after crying for a long time.”Charlotte stared at George in confusion. “What happened, George?”“I can't explain it to you now,” George muttered sternly. “I just hope you can cheer up Valerie.”“Of course I will.” Charlotte smiled, her eyes glanced towards Valerie who was sleeping curled up on the so

Jose sat in his room. This room is directly opposite Valerie's room, his eyes are watching the whole room.Well, not bad for a professor's house. He was actually not used to living in an ordinary room like this, let alone in a house that belonged to an ordinary person. The room that Jose prepared was usually the best room in a five-star hotel.However, currently Jose is carrying out his duties. Well, people should be afraid of him. He is a very dangerous assassin, famous in the dark world as a killer who never fails.Actually, Jose never considered murdering to be his career. In the past, his life was hard because he was a child who came from an orphanage with the name Jose Alejandro, a name given to him by his orphanage's mother.They gave him the name because they did not even know who he was when he was found crying at the door of the orphanage, almost turning blue from the cold outside.As a teenager, Jose leaves the orphanage, fleeing to live independently, but then he is trapped
