Chapter 159 - Daniellas childhood photo (1/2)

Ken felt as if a horse was hauling his body, he didn't have time to breathe after running upstairs using the stairs to make sure the Glen doesn't get the list but now, Daniella was dragging his body.

They took the fire exit, Ken carefully ran and just let Daniella held his wrist and dragged him downstairs.

When Daniella felt tired, she stopped and pushed the door of the fire exit open, they seemed to have reached the 15th floor and she didn't have the energy to go more.

She stepped into the hallway and turned to each side; the employees who were busy with their work suddenly turned to them.

When she heard the elevator, she tightened her hold on Ken's wrist and dragged him again.

Ken didn't complain and even if he wanted too, he can't, he didn't have enough air to speak.

Finally, Daniella stopped after they entered the men's bathroom.

The men who were busy peeing and washing their hands looked at Daniella with a surprise.

”Excuse me but this is men's bathroom,” one of the men said.

Daniella glared at him, then she took the crumpled paper she hid in her bra and opened it.

”What are the names here for?” she asked.

Ken's chest rose and fell rapidly as he tried to catch his breath, ”people who owe money to Evan. The number beside is their debt.”

Daniella nodded and slightly disappointed. She thought it was a very important paper for them to fight with.

”What are you going to do with this?” she asked.

Ken who had his body bent and hands on his knees breathing like a tired dog straightened, ”I will have my men collect the money and give it to Evan,” he paused and wiped the sweat on his forehead with the hanky he took from his pocket.

”And why Glen didn't want you to have it?”

Ken scoffed, ”why do I need to explain myself to you?” he barked at her angrily.

Daniella's face screwed, irritation swept over her mind, ”what's wrong? I was just asking?” she yelled, ”just answer my question!”

”Ugh! He's tired of handling all of my assault and murder cases alright!”

Narrowing her eyes, Daniella looked at the papers in her hand. Slowly, the situation sunk in her mind.

”So, Evan will ask you to get the money, and you'll hurt or threaten them to get it back and Glen will clean up the mess that you and Evan made?”

She looked up at the ceiling as she tried to analyze what she had just said, ”Is that right?”

Ken went silent, she was correct and they have been doing it for years.

After a long time, Ken nodded, ”Evan has never hurt anyone so don't worry, your boyfriend is not a killer.”

”Ahuh!” Daniella nibbled on her lower lips as she continued staring at the paper in her hand while her other hand was on her hip.

”What are you doing?” Ken asked when he heard her bubbling words he couldn't understand.

She's really weird, that's what he thought. Even her face was disturbingly weird.

But Daniella didn't answer when she was done, she looked up to meet his eyes.

”This is such a lot of money,” she said in an almost whisper, ”how much does Evan pay you?”

He rubbed his temple as he stared at her face, ”why?”

She gave him a half shrug, ”if I help you, will you give me the half?”
