Second Lead Syndrome: A Second Chance - Chapter 305
Lena clenched her hands into a first while the other hand suffocated Kris’ hand as she squeezed it tighter. Kris did not move at all and allowed Lena to vent her anger.
Only after a long minute, Lena breathed, and Tye took her to go see Gary.
Gary was moved to a room in the basement instead of the VIP ward. Lena walked in and saw that his head was bandaged. He had just got his hair long and now it was cut off again.
Kris watched as Lena lets go of his hand and walked over to where Gary’s body was. It was like de ja vu again for Kris. Lena grabbed Gary’s hand and looked at him.
Before she could continue, Lena glanced over at Kris.
“If you can’t keep a lid on that vinegar, then leave the room.”
“There is no vinegar. He only gets your pity when he’s always on a hospital bed.”
“Maybe you should get hospitalized more often..” Lena glared at him.
“…” Kris put a lid on his vinegar and walked over to sit on the sofa. He grabbed his cellphone and started texting instead of paying attention to Lena and her public affection to another man in front of him!
Lena smiled at Kris and then focused on Gary again. She placed a hand on his face and patted it gently.
“Sorry…” She whispered. “We’re both in this together… but while I am having the time of my life, I have forgotten that you are having it worse than me. I went from rags to riches and you… you have no family here. Your father is crazy. You’re a shut-off nerd. I admit that I am the bad friend this time… so, be okay, alright? We can punch Kris together when you wake up.”
Kris lifted his head when he heard that but then went back to texting.
Lena bent her head down and gave Gary a kiss on the forehead. “When you are good again, I’ll hook you up with a very good girl and we can go on a double date, okay?”
Lena stared at Gary for a few more minutes in silence. Then both Kris and she left the room. Gary was still in intensive care and no one should be seeing him, but Tye made an exception for Lena.
When they exited the room, Keso and Noah were outside the door. Kris had told both of them are to take care of Gary.
Lena greeted them quickly and then continued to walk out of the hospital. Kris trailed along behind her closely.
“Where are we going?” He asked.
“Is that even a question?” Lena smiled at him.
Kris laughed. “I’ll drive.” Of course, it was not a real question… he knew what his baby wanted and he already got the location of where Gary’s father was at the moment.
When they got outside, Kris opened the passenger door for Lena and then ran to the driver’s seat.
“Are you sure you want to do this? I can–”
“No. I will go handle this myself. You just need to look good, Mr. Li.” Lena replied.
“Ok. I just don’t want you to be stressed out.” Kris clarified his insecurities.
“Stress?!” Lena put on her seatbelt. “I heard that punching stuff is a good stress reliever.”
“It is indeed, my lady.” Kris chuckled and then drove to their destination.
Mr. Sanders was not in City A but instead doing business in City B. It was an hour-long drive before they got to their destination. Inside the car, Lena put on her makeup and refreshed her look. She was going into the enemy’s den, so she needed to play her part well.
When they arrived at the entrance, they were greeted with guns.
“What is your purpose of being here today… Mr. Li?” The guard spoke to Kris at gunpoint.
“I am just a driver today,” Kris spoke and moved his head away so the guard can see Lena.
The guard looked at Kris and was a bit… shocked at Kris’ response. ‘Did the almighty Kris Li just said that he is just the driver…? Then who is this woman…? Someone more dangerous than him?’
The guard grabbed his radio and talked on it. “Tell the boss that Mr. Kris Li and uh…” He looked at Lena.
“Miss. Shen.” Kris replied.
“Miss. Shen are here to visit him.” The guard finished talking over the radio.
“Let them in.” A voice replied from the radio and the head guard signaled everyone to put down their guns and they opened the gate for Kris to continue.
They drove for another 10 minutes before reaching the main building. Lena spotted that there were three men outside already waiting for them. Two look like just guards but the person in the middle seemed like someone with high power.
“That’s the first adopted son of him, Lucio Sanders.” Kris spoke and then parked the car.
Kris stepped out of the car first and went to open the door for Lena. Lena grabbed his arm and they both walk up to the people who were out to welcome them.
“Welcome, Mr. Li and Miss. Shen. I am Lucio Sanders. My father is waiting for both of you.” Lucio spoke. “However…” Lucio looked at Kris’ eye with no fear. “we would have to ask that you both surrender any kind of weapons.”
Kris smirked and raised his arms. “I am just a driver today, I am carrying nothing.”
One of the guards quickly went up to Kris and pat him down. After he was done, he nodded at Lucio that Kris was cleared and then he raised his hand to search Lena next.
However, Kris immediately grabbed the man’s arms and twisted it. “What do you think you are doing to her?!” Kris raised his voice.
The other guard put up his gun to Kris, but Lucio just stood there.
“Kris…” Lena slightly taps Kris’ hand to let go of the man. Kris looked at Lena and then let the man’s hand go.
Lucio signaled the other man to put his gun down and walked closer to Lena but not too close.
“I hope that Miss. Shen understands this is necessary if you want to speak with my father.”
“I do… But.” Lena immediately unzipped the side of her dress and took off her dress in a quick second. Even Kris was shocked. “No one would be touching me today.”
Lena stood there, one hand holding the dress, with only her undergarments on. And it was just any garments… it was very sexy lingerie that she had prepared for Kris.. but plans changed.
“Is this enough? Or should I take off more? As you can clearly see, I am carrying nothing.” Lena spoke and even gave the men a good 360 turn.
“Mnnh.” Lucio cleared his throat and rubbed his nose. He slightly blushed from seeing Lena’s perfectly sexy body. “That.. that’s fine, Miss. Shen.”
“Good.” Lena put her dress on and zipped it up. She flared up her hair and looked at Lucio. “Can we see your father now, please?”
Kris stared at Lena who acted like she did not just strip in front of three men who obviously is still drolling from her actions.
“Uh… Yes. This way.” Lucio turned around and lead them inside.
Lena went to Kris’ side and held Kris’ hand.
She raised her body up a bit and whispered to his ear, “Keep a lid on your vinegar, baby.”
Kris looked at Lena and did not smile at all. He put a hand under her dress and squeezed her buttocks, to which Lena squealed and then hit his shoulder.
Kris smirked at her then continue to look where they were going.
Lucio, on the other hand, pretended not to hear these two people flirting behind his back. They do know that they are in their territory, right…? Why does he feel like he was getting eaten alive instead..?
