The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective - Volume 2: Their Paths Cross Again Chapter 315 315: An Innocent Seducer

Elle didn’t expect to stumble with Black Shadow in that place today. He was also one persistent fellow. Just like Erick, Black Shadow was hard to convince that she’s not Elle.

Elle knew that Black Shadow didn’t completely believe her. He was a bit suspicious of her to the extent of taking a picture with her. She couldn’t understand why he had to do that. For what purpose?

However, Elle had no choice but to play along with him, or else she might raise his suspicion if she refused him. She was also bothered by Black Shadow’s attitude towards her.

He was acting like they were close to each other. His expression showed that he was glad to see her. She couldn’t forget the look in his eyes when he thought that Catseye was alive. She saw a gleam of joy and relief. But why?

She couldn’t figure out Black Shadow. She thought he would be the first one to rejoice after hearing the news that Catseye was dead but it seemed that it was the opposite.

“Brandon Stone” Elle mumbled to herself, a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

“So he is using this identity right now. Hmm for what?” After a while, Elle burst out laughing.

“I think I know the answer,” Elle said, glancing at Marie.

She just returned to the pool. Her CR break was interrupted by Black Shadow. In the end, Elle just went back without going to the comfort room.

Elle shook her head with a grin. “So bold he came here even though the place was full of police officers and agents just because of her. Hmmm A certain someone is learning to love once again.”

But the smile on her face quickly disappeared when she looked at Erick’s direction. The Chief Detective was now surrounded by ladies in their bikini outfit. Those were Marie’s friends in College.

“I just disappeared for a few minutes and now there are lots of unwanted bees surrounding my flower boy,” Elle mumbled through gritted teeth.

With her glaring eyes, she walked faster going back to her man.

“Chief Lee come on, join us!” The girl in a pink bikini outfit invited Erick to the pool.

“Yes Chief Lee. Why are you just sitting here? Your colleagues are already enjoying the pool water.” Another girl in her blue and purple bikini said, flashing her charming smile at Erick.

“What are you waiting for, Chief Lee? Let’s dip in the water!” Another girl tried to persuade him.

Erick was wearing white Sleeveless Tee and denim shorts. His pool party get-up today flaunted his beautiful manly physique, making these ladies couldn’t take their eyes off his body.

They could see through his thin clothes his strong hard chest and well-toned abs. The girls couldn’t help but drool over at that sight. When they saw him sitting alone, they grabbed this opportunity to initiate a conversation with him and get close to him.

They were waiting for Erick to respond when suddenly they heard a feminine voice behind their back.

“He is waiting for me.” Elle confidently said with a playful smile on her lips.

Erick’s eyes lit up upon seeing the girl. She was right. He was waiting for her.

The three ladies averted their gaze to Elle, eyeing her from top to bottom. Seeing her wearing a shirt and jeans, the ladies couldn’t help but raise their eyebrows.

‘This is a pool party, why is she wearing that?’

The girl in a pink bikini giggled and asked her with a provoking smile. “Are you going to swim with those clothes? Seriously?”

“Yeah this is a pool party!” One girl said, giving her a ridiculing look.

Erick was suppressing his laughter then he gave Elle a kind of look saying ‘I told you. You should bring swimwear.’

Elle just shot Erick a cold stare. Seeing her annoyed expression, Erick couldn’t help letting out soft chuckles.

“She’s allergic to chlorine and pool water,” Erick said to them, there was a gleam of humor in his eyes.

“Oh!” One girl exclaimed exasperatedly, covering her mouth using her one hand.

“Tsk tsk tsk. Too bad, she can’t enjoy this.” The girl said, mocking Elle.

Then the three ladies exchanged meaningful glances with one another.

Elle was about to lose her patience. These girls were really trying to provoke and annoy her. What she hated most was Erick who was just watching on the side while enjoying the show.

Is he trying to use these girls to challenge and force her to join them at the pool today?

‘Forget it. I won’t fall in this kind of trick.’

“Hmm you know what, I guess you are right. I shouldn’t be here today.” After saying that, Elle turned her back on them, walking away.

Erick’s eyes widened after seeing Elle walking towards the exit. He stood up and followed her immediately.

It did not take long when Erick was able to catch up with her. He grabbed her hand to stop her.

“Hey, where are you going?”

Elle faced him wearing an ugly expression.

“Can’t you see? Are you blind? I’m leaving!” Elle said coldly to him.

Erick just looked at her helplessly.

“Let go. Just go back there and enjoy the party with those ladies!” Elle added.

‘She’s mad!’

Erick ended up bursting into waves of laughter.

Elle yanked her hand out of his grasp. Then she folded her arms over her chest, facing him with her dark expression.

“Do you think something is funny? Why are you laughing?” Elle didn’t hide her irritation from him.

With his sparkling eyes and bright smile, he asked her. “Are you jealous?”

“Yes!… I mean No!”

Erick let out another husky laugh.

‘, Erick! Just leave me alone. I hate you!’

“Which is which? Is that a yes or a no?” Erick probed.

Elle pouted in annoyance.

“Did you bring me here just to annoy me, Mr. Detective?”

“No I brought you here because I wanted to be with you.”

“I hate you!” Elle blurted out

“Why?” Erick asked her with a grin.

“Because you are so gorgeous and charming! Attracting lots of girls!”

Erick chuckled once again.

“So are you going to leave just like that?” Erick asked, lifting an eyebrow.

“Then what do you want me to do?”

“You should stay and guard the thing that belongs to you.”

Elle: “…”

‘Is he telling me that he belongs to me?’

“So are you still leaving? Leaving me here alone with those ladies?” Erick asked her with a cheeky smile on his face.

‘ Erick! You’re intentionally doing this to me! Luring me using his own self as bait.’

” Just do whatever you want. Why do I care?” Elle was still stubborn, not giving in.

“Because you are my date today!” Erick said matter-of-factly.

“Since when did that happen?”

“A guy inviting a girl to a party means the guy asked the girl to be his date for that party. Now, did you get it?”

Elle just heaved a sigh of defeat.

“Alright. I’ll stay. But no swimming! Will you still enjoy this?”

Erick bobbed his head to confirm.

“I am not here to swim. I just want to be your company.”

Then Elle squinted her eyes at him. “Then why the hell did you wear these clothes, flaunting your body to those women?!”

Erick scratched his face. “I didn’t do it for them” Erick paused, a blush dusted over his cheeks.

Elle: “…”

Erick couldn’t complete his sentence but by just looking at his blushing face Elle could somehow grasp the whole thoughts of what he was trying to say.

He dressed up like that to flaunt his physique to her. His expression said ‘FOR HER EYES ONLY!’ Erick! What an innocent seducer!

Meanwhile, not too far away from Erick and Elle’s spot, a pair of eyes were watching them in shadow.

“I couldn’t believe it. The girl who looks like Kitten is also close to that Chief Detective. Is this just pure coincidence or is there a deeper story behind this?”

Black Shadow’s lips turned up in a mischievous smile.

“Interesting.” He mumbled to himself.

Then Black Shadow looked down, watching his picture together with her on his mobile phone. In the picture, he was grinning widely while the girl was frowning. She was glaring her eyes in irritation.

Black Shadow chuckled. “I wonder what will be his reaction once he sees this photo.”
