Chapter 111 - The New Era (1/2)

As soon as the two men reached the living room, Kaide finally burst.

”You… Zaki, you… what the---”

”What, you know I did it to save you.”

”Huh? There's a lot of other ways for you to that. Ahh… are you serious? The boss and the Miss will think I'm gay from now on? I can't accept this. This is too much!”

”Easy dude… this is the only way for you to stay beside her without being wary of Sei's pressures. And besides, if I didn't say that to him, there's no way he'll let you guard her.” Zaki's words somehow calmed the poor guy. However, the thought of being treated as gay from now on by both of his masters began to torment him.

”You don't have to worry; I'll tell them to keep it a secret.”

”Huh? Shut up. You don't know how I feel you sly fox.”

”Kaide... listen… your job isn't simple at all, so I'll do everything to get rid of anything that can disrupt what I've planned.” Zaki said and his sudden change of tone immediately turned Kaide speechless. Kaide was aware that anything Zaki wanted to happen will definitely happen. He knew that the only person who could change his decision was no one else, but Sei. That was why, he knew he was already doomed the moment he heard what Sei told him at the courtyard.

”I know you already understand how important that girl is. You must protect her at all cost… it'd be a huge problem if anything bad happen to her. And… the truth is I can't even begin to imagine what that monster will do if that happens. That's why, don't ever think about slacking, you get it?” Zaki's voice was serious as ever and his expression was akin to a great evil commander. And Kaide knew that every time this guy acts like this, things will only mean business.

”Slacking…? What made you think I'll ever do that?” Kaide finally replied, causing a smirk to flash across Zaki's face.

”And that's why I chose you did I not? Let's go back, you still have things you'll tell her, right?” Zaki said as he began to walk away nonchalantly, causing another popping vein on Kaide's forehead.

”I'll do everything for my job, but… I will remember this Zaki.”

”Yeah, yeah.”
