After Ottiline dropped her phone, Mr. Blade turned to look at her, "Is there a problem at home?" He asked."It's just some unimportant thing" She rubbed her hair and turned around to look at Damien who had already fallen asleep."Can you drop me off at the station, I have some things to take care of there. But I don't know if I can leave Damien in your care" She turned to Blade."What if I go with you?" Steele asked instead without agreeing to her request."This is my family matter, there is no reason to involve you" She turned surprised that he would even be interested in something like this."We've been married for over a week, isn't that enough for you to call me your family too!" Steele shrugged, not at all bothered by her rejection."You won't listen even if j tells you not to come, so do what you want. It's just that I don't want Damien to see such an ugly scene" Ottiline rubbed her forehead feeling tired."You don't have to worry, I will take care of that" After Blade spoke, th
"What?!" Clara turned sharply to look at the man that wanted to take her best friend away.She moved over and stood next to Ottiline."Why are you here?" Lily pointed out after seeing the familiar and scary face, she took a step back, and for some reason she didn't want to get involved in anything concerning him."What are you talking about?!" Mr. Levine asked as he glared at Ottiline, "What did you do behind my back?!" He yelled at her but before he realized it, Blade Steele was in front of him."You are being very disrespectful to my wife, Mr. Levine!" Blade Steele smiled coldly at him."I told you to stay with Damien '' Ottiline sighed helplessly at his involvement."Don't be so cold, I just couldn't watch them talk to my wife that way. Do you want me to get rid of them?" He turned and asked Ottiline who raised her eyes to look at him thinking that maybe he was probably joking but she only met his smirk and his seriousness.For a while, she thought that if she nodded her head then
Ottiline sat down and narrated everything that has happened during these past few days to Clara."Wow! It's much more complicated than I thought. When I heard that someone died in the estate I thought it was a lie but I didn't expect that such a thing would really happen. No wonder, Nelly came immediately after I called him" Clara shook her head."Well, It's good that he was close by." Ottiline muttered."As for Mr. Blade, From what I've heard from you, it's obvious that he is not a normal human being so you have to be careful around him. If it becomes dangerous, just leave him so that we can run away from this country together" Clara patted her and stood up."What about Damien, Did he say about his sudden step father?" She asked as he walked to the fridge and brought out a pack of beer."They are getting along well, and I guess it will only cause me a headache if they act like partners in crime" Ottiline smiled, "Are you planning to make me drink this night, Damien is at home" Ottili
"Thank you so much. My love, see you when I get back" Clara kissed the cheeks of Damien before she got out of the car and walked into the Boutique."Good morning, I'm so sorry that I'm late" Clara bowed her head the moment she got inside while sincerely apologizing for her lateness."Is ok. Ottiline called and said something happened last night so I'm letting you off for today" The Elderly woman came out and looked at her."That's why I love you the most, Madame. But why do you only listen to Ottiline and not me?" Clara pouted."If you don't like that, then send in your resignation letter!" Mrs. Jewel glared at her and turned to go back to her office.Clara smiled brightly as she went into her locker room to change to her uniform~~"Just because the boss doesn't say anything, that's why she thinks it's ok to always come late to work.~~"Her friend is always speaking for her and the boss is always letting her go. She thinks that life is all about connection.~~"I'm sure that she isn't
After leaving the station, Mr. Blade Steele drove off while tapping the steering wheel of his car."The coming days looks interesting" He muttered to himself. Soon he stopped in front of a huge building."President Steele, You finally came to work. I thought you will give yourself a forever holiday" Dillan stood next to his own car and watched him."As a secretary, shouldn't you come to work earlier?" Steele glanced at him lightly and made his way into the company without caring about his countless ranting."You still have the nerves to blame me. I wish this company goes bankrupt! I had sleepless night working but the only thing you did was chasing a woman all around." Dillan yelled out all the resentment that he had piled up in his heart."Should I send you to the valley to train you further?" "You are so heartless" Dillan pouted and followed behind him, changing back to his professional mode as no one will believe that he is the one that made such tantrums.As they made their way t
"Don't you think it's strange?" Nelly asked from behind her."Of course, it is. If they are dying so why did the killer have to go as far as committing a crime just to end their lives?Looking at it, the killer doesn't seem like someone that has any grudges against them" Ottiline said as they got back to the car as her phone rang."Austin, Did you find out anything?" She asked as soon as she connected the call."Yes, Their family said that both of them were sick, and just like the past cases, they want to close the case and there is no way for us to persuade them" Austin reported."Why do they want to close the case?""Lieutenant, They also stopped Sixtus from continuing with the autopsy" Nelly dropped his phone and reported to her."Nelly, go to Sixtus and find out why. I will go meet their families. Austin, You will meet with the lady's family and I will meet right the man's family" After speaking, she got out of the car."You can use the car, I will use a taxi," She said and hurri
Dillan walked into the office with a file in his hand, only to see a child sitting on Blade's table eating, while Blade sat opposite watching him."When did you bring a child into your office?" Dillan hurried over and asked."He has always been here from the beginning, you guys just didn't see him" Blade shrugged as Damien raised his head."Hello, Uncle," Damien muttered with his mouth puffy with the food inside."Just ignore him, there is no need to greet him" Blade rubbed his head."How did he come in here without us noticing?""Me and Dad were playing invisible, if I can become invisible Dad will buy my favorite food and I did it!" Damien explained with so much excitement in his voice."Is your first time during something like this, Don't tell me that, this is that detective's child?" Dillan asked not knowing if he should be horrified."Uncle, how did you know that my mother is a Detective?""Because she is scary" Someone else answered from the door."Are they dead humans on earth
"Mommy!" Damien called out immediately him and Mr. Blade entered the office."Huh? I thought that door was locked? And aren't you the man that I heard came with Ottiline the other day" Chief Zhou looked at the man and asked while Nelly pinched him to stop him from saying anymore nonsense "Yes. I'm sorry that I didn't properly introduce myself. I'm Blade Steele, And also Ottiline's husband" "You don't have to add that last part" Ottiline glared at him."Her husband? Levine? When did this happen? How could you get married without any of us knowing?" Austin, Chief Zhou and Cocksure, stared at her as if they have been betrayed."Don't look at me like that, We just received the certificate but we've not had our wedding yet." She explained hurriedly."But still...""We have other cases at hand so can we forget about my marriage for now, there will be plenty of times in the future for you to discuss about it" Ottiline glared at them."I didn't expect that Damien will be this cute the next
THE STORY OF MY MOTHER"President Damien, The public have a question for you? Your father is the weathiest man in the world. But even after taking over his company, why are you still a detective?" The reporter asked the grown up Damien Steele.Damien crossed his legs and looked at the reporter with a slight smile, "I did it because of my mother." He replied shocking both the reporter and the viewers."Your mom? You hardly talk about her.""Yes. She is the most strongest woman and the most amazing woman that i have ever seen. No one has ever topped her." He replied as the reporter."Then you would want a woman like your mother?""No, I don't think anyone is going to be as amazing as her. So that is why i am not planning to get married.""There are so many amazing women out there."No. I don't want to give someone the burden of being better than my mother. So i don't plan on getting married at all. She is just a special woman, that no one can ever replace her. Do you want me to tell you
The rest of the dinner ended with tears, Aunt Rita couldn't hold back her tears as she blamed herself for everything that. Grandpa was sent to the hospital because of high blood pressure which he ended up dead. His burial was done immediately leaving grandma, but the next day after the burial Grandma fell sick and was sent to the hospital. Ottiline instantly regretted telling them about.She submitted her resignation letter the next day, and just decided to live the rest of her life with her family. Blade dropped everything aside and booked a two months long trip for everyone, Her teammates, her aunt and Clara, with Damien. The spent the few months in the strange country."Maybe you should have died sooner. In that way i would have come to this vacation a long time ago." Clara joked as Ottiline knocked her and took the glass of wine from her hand."You've been drinking a lot since you came here." Ottiline sat down next to her at the beach."I just feel like drinking. Is there anything
The past few days went by like a flash, and Ottiline had to spend the rest of the day in the care of her family, since no one wanted her to be out of their sight. She could still vividly remember how Clara and her Aunt found out about the cancer.FLASHBACKOn that day she sent a message to her Aunt and Clara, "How about having dinner together. Steele will be there too." She sent to them as they responded almost immediately."Great! I will be there.""You finally decided to introduce him properly." Her Aunt sent as she smiled and hugged Damien tighter while she sent a message to Blade. After their fight that, they haven't had a proper talk. But she knows that Blade comes home everyday and sleeps on the same bed, while cuddling her. She just didn't want to say anything not only because she enjoyed it but also she felt more secure to see him there.While she was about to click on sent, She changed her mind and decided to call instead, Just as she called, it didn't even ring up to twice b
Before Ottiline could agree or disagree, She already found herself in another space sitting down, "I can see that you don't know how to seek consent." She rolled her eyes at him and mumbled."I clearly got your permission. It was obvious that you wanted answers, so it will be bad of me if i don't give you the answers that you are looking for." He placed a cup of tea in her hand."You seem to know everything." Ottiline picked up the tea and had a sip, it tasted like the one she had in Blade's office."Yes, I know everything . So where do you start asking from?" He sat down opposite her."Are you the one that killed him?" She asked as Mr. Williams smiled."You can't say that i killed him. I only put a killing spell in his body, And he can activate it whenever he wanted, i didn't expect him to activate it so soon." He replied as Ottiline stared at him silently without any word."Then i guess that you must know everything that he is doing? How he killed those people and watched me investi
Ottiline listened to Blade, and felt that the story felt familiar but it was obvious that she has not heard about it before. She tried her best to hold back what she was feeling at that time, "So what happened on the wedding day?""Rebels. The rebels that i have been fighting against for a long time, suddenly attacked. To save me she sacrificed her life and was killed. I lost my reasoning, So i killed everyone in the palace, and all the rebels. Innocent people were involved in the death. All the wedding guests died at my hand. Williams came to stop me, but according to the heavens, i committed a great sin so i was punished with eternal life.No matter how i tried, I couldn't kill myself. I couldn't get killed by others, I continued living a meaningless life. Dillan's life got tied to my own because he helped me kill them. So he is only allowed to die when i die.And i can only die if i get human stars. Stars are the amount of good deed they've done in this life and in their past lives
"Don't act so surprised when you are the one that killed him yourself. For how long do you think you will continue lying to me!" She yelled at him leaving Blade all surprised by the sudden outburst."Hey, Sweetheart calm down. I don't care what other accusation you have for me. But one thing i won't do is to break a promise that i made to you. There is no way i am ever going to do that. I ensured that Franz was brought to you alive so you can do whatever you want with him." He said clearly, as Ottiline paused."Well, Someone felt like it was ok to kill Franz, and we could not even save his body for an autopsy." She mumbled while looking at Blade's facial expression, but his face was still the same as she couldn't see what he was thinking."He was supposed to die, So there is nothing wrong with dying earlier than expected." He said and went back to his work, "But his body will be ashes the moment he dies. That is the same for everyone like us." He said as Ottiline sat down."Do you mea
"What?!" Austin looked at the paper in his hands, confused and wondering how things turned out to be like this."Why do you want me to suddenly look into your husband? Are you suspecting him or something? Maybe you should let Nelly know. I am not the best person for this job." He said as Ottiline shook her head."Nelly, and everyone else must never find out about this no matter what. It might go the wrong way if they find out." She warned again as Austin nodded."Then i will look into it for you." He said and headed inside without asking her any further question about anything.As soon as he walked in Chief Ben, Cocksure and Nelly walked up to him, "What did you and Ottiline talk about? Are you guys hiding something from us?" Cocksure asked as Austin shrugged."We are not hiding anything from you. What is there is hide anyway?" He said and made to his sit."You are acting suspicious. You are the only one Ottiline meets if she wants to hide something from us." Chief Ben said as Austin
"What?!"The more Franz spoke, the more he looks at Ottiline as if trying to find out something from her facial expression, "Do you know why they wiped my memory and took away my powers. It was to prevent me from saying these things. But do you think i was going to give up, No. I stored this particular memory using dark magic, So it must come up and i must say it. Indicating that it is time for me to die." He said as Ottiline looked up at him suspiciously."Why should i believe someone who speaks without evidence. Accusing my husband is a very big crime to me." Ottiline said as he chuckled lightly."For someone who wants to kill you himself. You have a lot of emotional attachment to him. Do you think he doesn't know the fact that you are sick? He knows, but he didn't say anything about it. Just like them, he will give you the option to live your your life without pain until you die or you will die a painful death.""You seem so concerned of my life than you seem about yourself. If you
The next few weeks Ottiline spent it at home recovering, While spending a lot of quality time with Damien, Clara and Aunt Rita, As for Blade, for some reason he has not shown his face to her after the incident, and she doesn't know if she will ever see him again. But even with all of these, she has not been able to tell Clara and her Aunt about her illness. They both seemed happy that she was taking a good rest and recovering, If she broke such news to them, she couldn't imagine how devastated they would be. So she just couldn't muster up her courage to tell them.She looked at them once again and decided to break to them another news instead while they were playing with Damien, and she was eating, "I am going back to work tomorrow." She said as they both stopped what they are doing and looked up at her instead."Don't you think it is time for you to quit that job? I can give you my boutique to manage if you wat." Aunt Rita said as she shook her head."I will quit very soon. For now i
