The stranger

last update Last Updated: 2024-11-24 22:51:05

Reyes was still trying to recover from the shock of the name when he asked the little girl, "How old are you?"

Nadia furrowed her brows, and instead of answering, she just shook her head. "Sorry, sir, mommy said I shouldn't share personal information with strangers."

"But you already told me your name," Reyes pointed out.

"That seems very normal. Who knows, your leg might hurt, and you might want to sue me because you really look rich enough to be a CEO," Nadia replied, surprising Reyes with her smart answer.

She was really pretty and looked a lot like Christine. The answer was too mature for Nadia.

"That stupid secretary couldn't have given birth to such a genius baby girl. It might just be a coincidence that they have the same surname," Reyes thought to himself.

While Reyes was lost in his thoughts, the little girl nodded respectfully. "Now please excuse me, sir. I have to go meet my mom. She would be looking for me by now. Also, I'm sorry for earlier," she said before running off.

    Finally, as the gala began to wind down, Reyes turned to her and said, "Shall we call it a night, Christine? I have an early meeting tomorrow."Christine nodded, relieved to be escaping the suffocating atmosphere. "Yes, of course."Outside, the cool night air was a welcome despite from the stifling heat of the event. Reyes handed Christine into the waiting car. "Thank you for tonight, Christine," he said, his voice low and husky. "You were... amazing."Christine forced a smile, feeling like she was trapped in a nightmare. "The pleasure was mine, Reyes."As the car pulled away from the curb, Christine caught a glimpse of the stranger standing on the sidewalk, watching her leave. Immediately Christine stopped the car, and quickly got down, she told the driver to just go that she forgot something at the party.She wanted Reyes to leave first before she goes back and pick Jeanette and Nadia. She quickly ran back to the party, to pick them up."Oh I thought you were going to leave us,"

It was obvious the way Reyes had been staring at her keenly.She tried to focus on her work, but she kept on remembering the way his eyes stared at her. Suddenly, her computer beeped, signaling an incoming email. Christine's heart skipped a beat as she saw the sender's name: Unknown.The email was brief, with only two words: "you'll pay."

    Reyes was pacing back and forth, his mind racing. The words echoed in his head like a relentless drumbeat: "You wouldn't want to lose your only daughter" His mother’s voice haunted him. He stopped abruptly, his heart pounding in his chest. Daughter? How could that be? He had never even considered the possibility. He ran a hand through his hair, frustration boiling over. He then remembered the night of 5 years ago. But a daughter? The thought was absurd. He had never even met the woman who had shared that night with him since then. How could his mother know something he didn’t? “Reyes?” The voice of Brandon broke through the chaos in his mind. Reyes turned sharply, his eyes blazing with urgency. “Brandon, I need you to find her,” he said, his voice low but intense. “The woman from five years ago. I don’t care how you do it, just make sure you fucking do your job this time.” Brandon’s brow furrowed, confusion flickering across his face. “You mean the one from the club? The one you—

Christine asked, her voice laced with concern.Margaret took a deep breath before speaking. "Christine, we just received a package. It's a knife with a note that says 'Christine will pay'."There was a pause on the other end of the line before Christine spoke up."OMG, again, this message was only to be directed to me, why did he have to deliver a package to you?Christine said, her voice shaky. "I'll be right there."As Margaret hung up the phone, Jeanette looked at her with a concerned expression."Do you think Christine is in danger?" Jeanette asked.Margaret nodded. "I think we all are."Just then, the doorbell rang again. Margaret's heart skipped a beat as she wondered who it could be."I'll get it," Jeanette said, getting up from the couch.A

    Christine stood in front of the mirror. She adjusted the collar of her crisp white blouse, the fabric hugging her figure just right, and smoothed down the tailored black skirt that fell just below her knees. With a final touch of her lipstick, she admired the confident woman staring back at her.After a moment of self-appreciation, Christine grabbed her purse and keys, her heart fluttering with excitement at the thought of seeing Nadia. It had been a week since she had last seen her, and the ache of separation had lingered longer than she had thought.

    "You're really going to regret betraying me!" she spat, her voice venomous.Reyes, however, seemed unfazed by Sage's outburst. He responded lightly, "I never promised you anything, so how could I possibly betray you?"Sage's eyes welled up with tears, and her voice trembled with emotion. "But we're engaged," she protested. "You can't love another woman beside me. That's unfair."Reyes burst out laughing, his lips curling up in a lazy smile.

Let's just end this whole fake engagement."Sage's face turned white with shock, and she took a step back, her eyes wide with horror. "No, Reyes!" she yelled.

    Reyes' eyes seemed to gleam with amusement as he gazed at Christine. "I admit that I misjudged you," he said, his voice low and husky. " one of the many secretaries who have worked here. It turns out you are the best. You are so hardworking, and you are everything I need in a secretary."Christine's eyes narrowed, "So, instead of looking for a new one, wouldn't it be better to keep the one, the existing one, that has proven to be the best?" Reyes asked, his eyes glinting with amusement. "And also, very loyal."Christine blinked, not understanding. "I wasn't loyal," she said, her voice firm. "I submitted my resignation."Reyes chuckled, the sound sending a shiver down Christine's spine. "Yes, you are loyal," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "If you weren't, you wouldn't be here right now."Christine sighed faintly, feeling like a fool. She shouldn't have come back.

"Besides, our relationship is limited to colleagues," Brandon said, his voice calm and measured. "My concern for her is also limited to pity I think other bodyguards also share my thoughts. Christine is a typical innocent girl who deserves to be protected."The corners of Reyes' lips twitched, a mixture of amusement and annoyance. "Innocent?" he repeated, his voice laced with sarcasm.

He knew Jeanette was worried about him, and he was taking advantage of her concern. But he couldn't help it. He was feeling something he wasn't supposed to feel.He was a murderer, a cold-blooded one at that. He had killed countless people in his quest for revenge, and he had never felt a shred of remorse. But Jeanette was different. She made him feel things he couldn't explain, things he didn't want to feel.He was drawn to her, and it scared him. Kaido didn't want to complicate matters.
