Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 114

“What the fuck! He dropped the call?” Ranz was flustered when Toto ended the call, just because he doesn’t like to identify himself.
“What else should I do?” Ranz paced around the living room before he tiptoed back inside Nida’s room.
“How are you, Nida?” He checked on her and peered inside the blanket to see her face.
Huf huff huff
She’s breathing heavily, and she looks pale as she sweats profusely.
“W-what should I do?”
He gently placed his hand on Nida’s forehead.
“Her fever is too high.”
He went out of her room and took ice cubes out of the fridge, then went back to her again.
“Hnghh.” He gently placed ice cubes on Nida’s forehead and waited for them to melt.
“She will feel less hot now.” He confidently felt satisfied with what he had done.
“Cold!”
Nida slightly moved her head, which made the ice cubes slide down to her pillow and some fall straight to her chest.
“Cold!” Still unconscious, she moves around trying to remove the ice on her, but unfortunately, the ice went inside her clothes.
“H-hey! Your clothes will get wet!” Ranz took the ice on her pillow first before he tried to take the ice that slid inside Nida’s cleavage.
Without minding that his hand was touching Nida’s soft and healthy chest, his only focus was to retrieve the ice.
Click!
“Don’t move!”
Ranz froze and kept his hand in Nida’s chest.
He doesn’t know who the man behind him is, but one thing he recognizes is that the clicking sound he heard was from a gun.
“Remove your hand from her chest! And put your hands up!”
Ranz followed the man and nervously put his hand in the air. After doing so, the man on his back grabbed his hands and pressed him down to put on handcuffs roughly.
“Sir, the lady is having a fever. I’ll call an ambulance now.” Another man in uniform came close to Nida, while still another man was pressing him on the floor.
“Hey! What are you doing? I live here!” He complained, but he is not resisting physically because he will not win and will only hurt himself.
“Shut up! explain everything in the station.”
The police officer dragged him out of Nida’s apartment and took him to their police mobile.
“W-wait! What about Nida? ”
“She will be sent to the hospital.”
“Hey, don’t answer that pervert. I’ll take him to the station, and you wait for the ambulance here.”
“Yes, sir.”
Ranz can’t believe that he is being accused of being a pervert or a thief.
He looked at the police officer and wondered who they could be and how they got inside the house without him noticing.
“Sir, why did you come in without knocking? I didn’t even hear you going inside.” he wondered while playing with the handcuffs that made his skin itchy.
“Are we supposed to knock if it’s pretty obvious that a thief is inside the house.” the police officer scoffed at Ranz’s question.
“Pardon?”
“You left the door open. both the entrance and bedroom door.”
“Ah.” Ranz realized that he might be panicking so much that he left all the doors open.
“Excuse me, does Toto call you here?”
“Toto? Who’s toto? ”
“Ah, nevermind.”
Ranz tilted his head while trying to remember Toto’s new name, but he couldn’t think of anything. He just stayed quiet and just let the police officer drive him to the station.

“Sir Rudy, you can’t keep following me. You have your own separate job.” Randell said to Rudy while they were heading back to their office from inspection.
“No. Madam’s order is my priority.” Rudy proudly pounded his chest, determined to fulfill Nida’s request.
“Haa, I am thankful, but what will you do with your office tasks? Do you not have deadlines? ”
“I do, but don’t worry. Magic is a convenient thing.” Rudy exclaimed, laughing.
“No, seriously. You can’t even freely use magic here. You do know the rules?”
“Okay, okay sir. I won’t stick with you always, but please let me know whenever you’re going out of the office or when you’re going home. ”
“Yes, that works for me.”
The two bump their fists together after coming to an agreement.
“Okay then, sir. I’ll do my job now.”
“Okay, so I’ll go home at five. ”
“Okay, let’s go together.
Randell just waved his hand and walked back to his seat.
“Hmm? Did someone use my phone?” He asked loudly. He could tell because he remembered where he left it. He wasn’t expecting someone to call him; that’s why he left it on his table.
“Oh, no! I picked up a call, sir.” His female co-worker responded.
“Ah? Really. Who called? ”
“The number wasn’t registered and it seemed like a scammer.”
“Ah, really? Thanks.” Randell just put his phone back on his desk and continued to finish his tasks.
His first day of his return is somewhat hectic, but at the same time, he feels relieved that the office was the same as before, and the werewolves also don’t notice that he has lost his strength. He finished the day smoothly and drove alone home because Rudy needed to work over time because he hung out with Randell during the day.
“Police?”
Randell noticed a police mobile parked in front of Nida’s apartment building.
He was not the type to mind other people’s business, so he just passed by, parked his car, and went straight up to the third floor, where Nida’s apartment was located.
“Hmm? What is this? ” He removed some yellow tape blocking the door and was about to enter the house when a police officer came rushing towards him.
“Excuse me! Wait!”
“Yes, sir? What is it?”
“Do you live here?”
“Yes sir, why?”
“Ah, no one is there.”
“What do you mean, sir?”
“There’s a pervert barge inside this apartment, and the lady living here was rushed into the hospital. The lady who lives here is living alone. Are you sure you live here? Can you show proof, sir?” The police asked suspiciously. Moreover, the police officer was wary of Randell’s looks because the person who looked like him was sent first to the station.
“What? What do you mean, hospital?”
“She was sick with a high fever, so we rushed her to the hospital.”
“Which hospital?”
“St. Joseph hospital, sir. W-wait! ”
Randell wanted to rush and go to Nida, but the police officer blocked his way.
“What is it, sir?” Randell asked sharply. That made the police officer step back, but he kept blocking Randell.
“There is a pervert who barged into this apartment. Identify yourself before proceeding. You might be one of the theifs or perverts.”
Randell didn’t know how to prove that he lived here, which is why he gestured his hand toward the entrance of Nida’s apartment.
“Hmm. I can show you my room. I and my brother live with Nida.”
“Is that so? Sir, will you prove it to me?”
Although Randell looks impatient because he badly wanted to check on Nida, he still looks more trustworthy and professional than Ranz. That is why the police officer continues to speak politely to Randell.
They went inside the apartment, led by Randell, and showed him their room, which was full of their belongings.
“It’s still a bit messy because we just moved in recently.”
“Then do you know the guy that has a darker complexion than you?”
“Huh? That’s my brother. Don’t tell me you arrested him? ”
“Oh no! he live here as well?”
“Yes.”
“Then why was his hand inside the lady’s chest while he was unconscious?”
“What? What did he do?” Randell was flustered by what he heard but also thought that Ranz could do harassing Nida, but he never thought that he could do it while Nida was sleeping.
“Should I repeat what I said?”
“Ah, no sir.” Randell massaged the temple of his head while thinking. “Sir, you don’t need to guard this apartment. I’ll lock it and secure it.”
“Okay, that’s nice.”
“I’m going to the hospital, sir, but please inform my brother that it will take some time to drop by the station because I need to take care of Nida at the hospital first. Sir, please do me a favor.”
“Okay sir, don’t worry. We can’t free him without proof, but I can leave some words at the station so that they’ll stop interrogating him.”
“Thank you very much, sir.”
“No problem.”
Randell and the police officer respectfully said goodbye to each other, and they went on their own way.
“Nida Mildea, please.”
Randell asked the nurse to know where Nida’s room was.
“Oh my! She’s in the ICU. Are you her relatives?”
“Ah, I am her housemate. We live together.”
“Is that so? Then can you fill this up for me? ”
“O-okay, thank you.”
Randell calmly talked to the nurse, but he badly wanted to rush toward the ICU.
He took the papers and hurriedly filled out the basic information the hospital needed for Nida’s admission.
“Randell!” Randell turned his head toward the familiar voice.
“Nida!”
