The Billionaire’s Wife is an Assassin

Damien after sorting out the files for the night came out of the study to proceed to his room, but what he met was the dark passage.

“Is she not back yet?” He muttered abd checked the time and it was already 11:59 pm the next second it will be a midnight.

To confirm his guess he made his way to her room door and knocked on the door but no one responded.

He knocked again and still nothing, the room was dark and he could not see anything from outside.

“Maybe she has gone to bed” He turned to return to his room when his phone vibrated in his hand.

Damien frowned as he looked at the caller.

“Hello” He spoke first after connecting the call.

“Commander, your wife is in the hospital” Henry spoke while looking at the hospital door.

“What?”

“You should go to the station. Her friend is there while Miss Scarlett is going through a minor surgery to remove bullets from her arm. They were attacked by Assassins…” Before Henry could finish Damien already hung up the call and went into the bedroom to change into something else.

He came out dressed, left the villa got into his car and drove straight towards the hospital.

Lisa sat in front of Jonathan as she tapped her foot on the floor while biting her nails.

Her mind floated far as she kept thinking about Scarlett.

‘How is she doing? If I knew I shouldn’t have let her injure herself. Aish!’

“Miss Lisa Rick!” Jonathan hit the table causing Lisa who was lost in thought to jump up.

“Yes. Is there a problem?” She asked flustered.

“Did you even listen to what I have been saying?” Jonathan frowned at her distraction.

“If it’s you that your friend is in the hospital without knowing her life or her death, will you not be lost in thought?” She glared at him.

“You really don’t know her life or death?” Jonathan looked at her strangely.

“Do you know?” Lisa asked back at him.

“Please cooperate and answer every questions that we are going to ask you” Jonathan reminded her one last time.

“I won’t say anything until I am sure Scarlett is fine” She shook her head stubbornly and didn’t plan to pay attention to Jonathan.

“Miss Rick!” Jonathan raised his voice slightly.

“Detective Jonathan, You all stay in this office sometimes doing nothing instead of protecting the people just as you guys promised during your swearing in.

Now my friend is in danger and you want me to cooperate with people that don’t even do their job well. Please don’t make me laugh.

I wait till Scarlett returns” She finished as Jonathan rubbed his forehead slightly.

He now understands what people mean when they say bird of the same feathers flock together.

How can both of them have the same attitude towards the police without caring at all.

“You have been here for more than 2 hours? Won’t you really say anything! Miss Rick this is a murder case!” He raised his voice frustrated.

“Scarlett!” Lisa suddenly yelled and stood as she looked at Scarlett that came in with Henry behind her.

As for Henry he was busy making calls.

“Are you ok?” She stood and looked around Scarlett.

Her hands were bandaged two times because of the knife wound and gunshot wound that were in both arms.

Her cheeks only had a small band aid on it.

“Look at you, How could it be so serious” She held her right and kept on crying with Scarlett joining her as if the world has ended.

“Did you find out the identity of the Assassins?” Henry went over to his brother Jonathan and asked.

“The Red Eagles but it’s strange” Jonathan looked at the two and stated his suspicions.

“What is strange?” Henry asked him.

“How she was able to kill all three of them and the Killin was in one stroke” Jonathan muttered still looking at the two people that were crying.

“Miss Scarlett, Miss Lisa, Please you both have to sit down and answer your question” Jonathan reminded them as they two girls turned and looked at him.

After a short glance they held each other and started crying again.

“Woohoo! I really didn’t kill him, it’s not my fault. I don’t want to go to jail” Scarlett burst into tears.

“You won’t go to jail I promise you” Lisa held her and tried to console her.

“Do you think we can get out of this?” Scarlett whispered admist tears to Lisa.

“I don’t know, you suggested this idea so you should have a follow up plan” Lisa whispered back.

“No follow up plan!” Scarlett broke the news tj her dismay.

“What?!” Lisa forgot to cry as she raised her voice for a moment.

When she realized what she has done she bent her head again and continued crying as if she is not the one that just overreacted.

“What do we do do now?” She glared at Scarlett.

“Continue Crying” Scarlett muttered as they held each other and continued with their tears.

“Miss Scarlett you committed murder and you can’t change that with crying!” Jonathan walked over to them and said in a loud voice.

He already felt angry that he is working overtime because of them but they are not even cooperating.

“I did not kilk anybody, wooooo! I only held out the knife who knew that he would suddenly jump up and it pierced him”

“Yes that’s what happened! I am an eye witness!” Lisa supported her words.

“Is it really a mistake but why did I see that the killing was done as if you have done it several times” Jonathan crossed his hands as the both stopped crying in a daze.

“Ohhh! I am a Baker and a half chef it’s normal for me to handle Knife perfectly” She recoveted quickly and said.

“Really?” He still looked at them as he doesn’t believe.

“You can be sentenced in 29 years imprisonment for murder!” Detective Jonathan said as Scarlett frowned slightly.

She raised her head and wiped the fake tears that were on her face.

“Don’t you think it’s enough?” She asked him coldly.

“You finally decided to stop pretending?” Jonathan sneered as Scarlett roller her eyes while Lisa pinched her to stop her from overreacting.

“I was almost killed, of course I will scared. I am a lady and am I not allowed to save myself when I am in danger. You haven’t even told me the identity of those that came after me and you are accusing me of murder.

If not because of my profession, maybe it will be my corpse that will be inside that room” Scarlett raised her voice and faced Jonathan coldly.

“Who almost Died?” A Cold voice sounded just at the entrance of the office.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
