Chapter 446 - 446: You Cheated On Your Fiancee? (2/2)

”What?! Erick? Erick Lee?! The Handsome Pervert Chief Detective?!” This time Sandy said that in a low voice.

”Yes!”

”Oh my gosh! No wonder, you didn't hesitate to cheat on your fiancee. Detective Lee is so handsome! Every woman could fall for him easily, including you. He is a great temptation for us women. Even I, myself, wanted to taste Erick Lee.”

”Ouch!” Sandy grunted as Elle hit her head when she said the last sentence.

Elle shot Sandy a cold sharp glare.

”ERICK IS OFF-LIMITS. He. Is. MINE. ONLY!” Elle emphasized every word.

”Hey, I'm just kidding. Besides, my charm won't work on him.”

”But why did you do it? He's already married, right? How about James?” Sandy asked her worriedly.

Elle heaved a deep sigh before explaining everything to Sandy.

”James and I are only friends. We are not in a relationship. We are just pretending. He's the one who saved my life and brought me to the State for my medication.”

Sandy nodded her head, signifying that she understood what she was saying.

”How about Chief Lee? What is your relationship with him?” Sandy asked her curiously.

”I'm his wife who went missing two years ago,” Elle revealed to her.

”Oh my gosh! Now I get it! That's the reason he always hugged you before when you saw each other after you returned here in City Z.”

”Yes, there's a reason why I pretended not to know him. But eventually, he still found out the truth about my identity. Then we started seeing each other secretly.”

”His colleagues do not know about this yet. Can you please keep it a secret in the meantime? We will tell them once we settle some issues on my part.” Elle begged her.

”Alright, Ali. You don't have to worry. Your secret is safe with me.” Sandy reassured her.

”Oh, by the way! Congratulations!” Sandy hugged Elle. She was happy for her.

”Thank you,” Elle mumbled.

”Let's go back now. I have to talk with our superior. I will ask him for another assignment.” Elle said to Sandy.

”Oh, you will suggest him to cover another dangerous story? Oh noh, don't do that. You're pregnant now.” Sandy reminded her.

”I know. It's different. Not dangerous compared to others.”

”Alright.”

They were about to go back when Elle noticed a silhouette behind them. Someone was listening to their conversation.

”Sandy, go ahead. I just have to check something. I will follow you after.”

Sandy just nodded her head before leaving Elle.

Elle started to walk to the corner where she caught a glimpse of someone's shadow.

”Come out now. I know you are there. I saw you.” Elle said, telling the person who was hiding behind the wall.

”Brandon Stone… a.k.a Black Shadow,” Elle said before letting out a soft chuckle.

Unknown to Elle, Black Shadow was not moving because he was still shocked by the news he overheard a while ago.
