Chapter 106: Indifferent

ASH even grinned at me, clearly enjoying my reaction. What an asshole.

Furious, I grabbed his hand, digging my nails into his skin.

Instead of reacting, his grin only widened as he stared at our hands.

"Nice try, but try harder," he teased before flipping the situation. Now, he had a firm grip on my hand, ready to snap it if I made the wrong move. "Fuck you," I cursed at him. "What is this? Are you messing with me?"

"If that's what you think, then... so be it," he shrugged. "I know you. You're hotheaded and naughty. No matter what I say, you won't believe me." Well, he's right.

"If you wanted to save him because you needed to ask him something..." he pointed to himself. "Then talk to me. I'm sure I can answer all your questions."

A FEW hours had passed, and we finished the mission. I had been waiting here behind a tree for so long. I couldn't go home until I saw the mission was done.

I only confirmed it when chaos broke out inside the bar because Senator Windwood reportedly fainted at the bar countertop.

"Why are you still here?" I asked Ash when his car stopped in front of me.

"Hop in," he said, rolling down the window.

I looked around and noticed reporters arriving, so I didn't hesitate. I went to the passenger seat and went inside.

And as soon as I sat there, I grabbed a pen and pointed it to his neck.

I could see his slight surprise, but he concealed it with a smile.

"Just in case you try to kill me again, you'll die, too," I warned him.

He grinned before holding my hand. He slowly lowered it, gently stroking my fingers. "I didn't kill you."
