When the door cracked open, Scorpio stopped sharpening his blade and raised his gaze to stare at his man calmly walking inside, and then he asked in a dead tone, “What is it. Target?”

“Please refrain from touching, my madam!” Kent warned, his eyes cold as he glared at Target. 

“Okay, Okay!” Target exclaimed, holding his hands up and backing off slowly.
