Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 372
Time remained the same inside to house… but with every minute passing by, the situation was getting volatile and out of control.
“Shreya… it’s time you take Charan and leave this place… we can handle it…” Andrew whispered to Shreya.
Without having to worry about protecting both of them, the guys will actually be able to handle this better. And without Shreya here, Delaney actually will lose the leverage.
But Shreya also knew Delaney would never let them leave. The minute she tried to take a step out of the living room, Delaney is going to go ballistic. She might not care about herself, but Shreya cannot blindly take such a chance. So, she decisively dismissed Andrew’s idea.
“Since it seems like we are going to be stuck here for a while, why don’t we talk? Are you so short of money that you started taking ‘errands’ now?” Shreya asked walking from behind the guys.
Of course, Charan tried to hold her back but Shreya never gave him the chance to stop her as she slyly slipped past him. Now she stood facing Delaney unarmed.
Delaney sneered.
“Do you really think I would need money? Balls. I came here for you of course…” Delaney said smirking.
“Well, I am flattered but I don’t feel honored,” Shreya dryly answered rolling her eyes. “Anyways, you got caught just like that even before you could lay a finger on me…”
“Don’t be so sure just yet…” Delaney smirked.
“Oh! Did I fail to mention it before? You are out of luck today… your getaway car just got towed by our guys… you are a sitting duck here Delaney… So, unless you want to really end up being dead, I would advise you to put down your guns now…” Shreya said sharply. As soon as the words left her mouth, Shreya knew things were coming to an end.
Just when she was looking around for an opportunity, Shreya noticed something from the corner of her eyes, and her eyes widened alarmed in spite of herself.
Between her talking and bickering with Delaney to distract her… somehow, Charan had slipped away from the group and was almost beside Delaney by now.
“Charan!!” Shreya called out panicked. But by the time Shreya called out, Charan had already made his move.
Charan tackled one of the guns in Delaney’s hands and pointed it straight to her head while Delaney recovered pretty quickly and pointed the gun back at his head. Both were facing each other.
“Seems like you were not such a simple boy toy after all!!” Delaney sneered looking at Charan furiously.
“I never said I was… You just ȧssumed.” Charam smirked back. His hand on the gun was steady and his eyes straight. There was no trace of fear in him as he faced Delaney… That was not something any ordinary guy can do… The ease with which Charan was holding the gun was not like someone who is seeing it for the first time…
Delaney never gave Charan any attention from the start because as far as she was concerned, he was unimpressive. A normal family man… She never put him in eyes.
Even though Delaney might not have anything else… she has a lot of pride in herself… she had a lot of arrogance when it came to her skill. So, for her, using a loose end to catch her prey was beneath her. And as far as she was concerned, Charan and his whole family was just a loose end for Shreya… nothing more. That is why her eyes never deterred from Shreya… her eyes never stayed on Charan.
So, she never thought of using anything like that against Shreya in the first place… she wanted Shreya and she came here to get her… straight and simple.
But looking at Charan now, she knew she probably made a mistake… He did not look like an ordinary house cat.
Maybe on a normal day, he was an ordinary house cat… but if he was put into situations, Charan was a fighter… a survivor. He was not someone to give up that easily…
“You want to challenge me?” Delaney asked giving him a fierce look. But then she had a mocking gaze as she challenged him. She looked as if she was daring him to take up the challenge. You can see the excitement in her eyes… anger subsided into elation. This feeling was what she lived for… facing the danger and being able to overcome it. But her excitement froze when she met Charan’s unflickering eyes.
“No… I do not want to fight you… I am not that skilled. I just do not like people breaking into my home! So, can you just do me a favor and leave us alone…! Anyways, you do not have anything personal with any of us.” Charan replied very calmly without flinching.
Delaney was slightly surprised by his answer. She is a wanderer… no human attachments. Full of pride and ego to last a lifetime… And when she was facing Charan, she can see he was determined and stubborn to protect himself and Shreya but he did not have any arrogance or ego…
After all, no man is ever going to be able to not boast himself when a woman is going to so blatantly mock you. So, as far as she was concerned, he was an alien creature.
Before anyone could react to anything, a gunshot went out and the next second, the window glass behind Delaney shattered and the gun in Delaney’s hands fell with a thud with blood splashed all over its handle.
“Fuck!!!” Delaney cursed out loud in pain. She trashed her bleeding hands to get rid of the pain.
But the people around her never gave her enough time to recover. Everyone around moved pretty quickly after that as Andrew restrained Delaney… And once again Charan ended up being surrounded as one of the guys pulled him behind them.
They even made sure to take away his gun…
