Chapter 220 - House Of Secrets (2/2)

Tobias grunted. However, it seemed as if he didn't care for his response. As if whatever Shen Jue's response was, Tobias would find his own way to protect her.

He glanced down at Mimi, and the faintest hint of a smile glowed within his eyes. Without thinking, he rubbed her head as if to comfort her. Mimi blinked and cleared her throat to conceal her embarrassment.

”What did you have arranged?” She looked at Shen Jue, hoping he didn't see Tobias's actions just now. It was too humiliating.

Unfortunately, Shen Jue's sharp gaze was constantly watching her. His eyes narrowed slightly before he walked over to a corner of the room and grabbed a cardboard box.

”This.”

Mimi and Tobias looked at the box in Shen Jue's hands. Both their brows raised.

...

In a modest, family-oriented neighborhood, a car pulled up to the side. As the backseat door opened, a slender foot stepped out.

Exiting the car was a girl with high, delicate cheekbones, a small nose, and luminescent blue eyes. The sun beamed down on her milky, smooth skin, and silky blonde tresses. She was rather petite and dainty. Delicate, if you will. She had a slender, curving waist and a pair of enormous b.r.e.a.s.ts.

The girl was none other than Mimi. Similar to the time at the bar, Shen Jue made her wear a disguise. When she and Tobias saw what was inside the box, they were surprised. To be more precise, Mimi was more thrilled by what she saw.

A pair of fake b.o.o.b.s! And they were big!

Without hesitation, she applied them to her disguise.

Mimi raised her head and removed the dark sunglasses from her eyes before scanning the neighborhood. A frown marred her expression, narrowing her light-blue eyes as she caught herself tapping her long nails against the car.

She pursed her pretty red lips. ”Are you sure this is the address?”

It looked so ordinary, she thought.

Exiting the car, Shen Jue looked around at the identical row of houses and chuckled.

”Yup, this is it.”

At the same time, Tobias stepped out of the car and looked up. A man of few words, he emitted a small grunt of approval. Mimi looked back at the houses. Something flashed within the depths of her eyes but was quickly hidden.

”Let's go.” She said and walked to the door.

The sound of car doors closing and two pairs of footsteps sounded behind her as she stepped onto the doorstep. The house was identical to its neighbor's right down to the shade of paint to the iron balconies.

Staring at the red, polished door, her stomach clenched into a dozen tight fists.

This was the last place Emily visited alive. Whoever was on the other side of this door would answer her questions.

She took a deep breath and tried to suppress those strange feelings. With a firm gaze, she outstretched her hand and rang the doorbell.

On the other side, footsteps approaching could be heard before the door slowly opened...
