The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective - Volume 2: Their Paths Cross Again Chapter 447 447: Congrats My Friend

“Come out now. I know you are there. I saw you.” Elle got no response after she said those words. She couldn’t help letting out a soft giggle. “Brandon Stone a.k.a Black Shadow,” Elle called him out once again. Elle had no idea that the reason why Black Shadow was not responding to her call was that he was still processing in his brain the information he had overheard a while ago. He was shocked beyond belief. He didn’t expect that he would accidentally hear that news from the two ladies. He went to Elle’s office today since he volunteered last night that he would be the one to talk to Elle about Supremo’s decision. They wanted to ask her help to convince James to stay in the headquarters and not to join the mission. It was dangerous for him. He decided to use the emergency exit in entering the building. Who would have thought that by doing that he would receive a piece of shocking news unintentionally and indirectly. Since Black Shadow was not moving in his spot, Elle had no choice but to walk over and approach him by herself. When Elle reached his spot, she saw him with his eyes wide open and mouth gape. He was frozen.in his baffled state. Elle could no longer hold her laughter. This was the first time she saw Black Shadow with that kind of funny and shocked expression. “Hey, what happened to you, Mr. Brandon Stone? Did your spirit wander to another dimension and has not returned yet?” Elle mumbled, teasing Black Shadow after she stopped laughing at him. Elle’s laughter and her voice snapped him out of his deep stupor. After he recovered his wits, he faced Elle with a pitiful look on his face. “What shall we do now? Don’t tell me you and I will not be able to do this mission once again?” Black Shadow said exasperatedly. He looked like a child who lost his favorite toy after hearing the news. Elle gazed at him helplessly. He was really looking forward to doing a mission with her. “I’m sorry. I am afraid that will be the case this time,” Elle said to him apologetically. “It’s for my child’s safety. This is my priority now, Black. I hope you understand,” Elle added, assessing Black Shadow’s reaction. Black Shadow could only heave a deep sigh. He leaned on the wall as he was feeling down. Elle moved closer to Black Shadow as she also leaned on the wall beside him. There was a moment of silence between them. After a while, Black Shadow spoke up again. “Will I be able to do a mission with you before you retire? Hmm why do I feel like we will not be able to collaborate in one mission even in the future? What if I die during this mission then you will miss your chance of working together with me.” Black Shadow started to feel sentimental. “Hey, what are you saying? What’s wrong with you? Spouting nonsense like that. You won’t die!” Elle said with certainty. Black Shadow let out a husky laugh before asking her, “How sure are you? I’m not an immortal.” Elle flashed a cheeky grin and said, “Because bad guys won’t die easily. They have long lives.” Black Shadow didn’t feel offended, instead he let out another soft chuckle. “Then I will definitely die. I’m not a bad guy anymore. I’m doing good deeds now. See I will save many nations once I successfully sabotage this negotiation.” This time Elle fell silent for a moment. She had now become serious. “Black you have to stay alive.” Black Shadow’s lips curled up after hearing that. “Why?” “Because I don’t want to lose another friend.” Elle said to him meaningfully. Black Shadow was taken aback when he heard that. He was tongue-tied for several seconds. For an unknown reason, he was touched by her words. He could feel the warmth inside his heart. Catseye considered him a friend now. He tried to hide his embarrassment by cracking some jokes. “Will you cry if I die? If I just know, you thought many times about how you would kill me before.” “Hmm, well, I will not deny that. There was a certain moment wherein I really wanted to kill you. That was the day Erick was hurt because of you and Reaper.” Elle told him honestly. “Well, that is so expected of you. Hahaha. I’m glad you didn’t attack me that night. I guess I am still lucky.” “See bad guy won’t die easily.” Elle said with a cheeky grin on her face. Black Shadow just shrugged his shoulders then he turned to his side to look at her. “Well, anyway congratulations! Little kitten is coming.” “Thank you,” Elle said, her expression softened at the mention of her baby. “If you continue to be a good guy then I will consider choosing you as one of the godfathers of my baby,” Elle added. Black Shadow’s face brightened up. “Really?” Elle just nodded as a response. “Oh I would love that. Hmm I will train your child. You never know. If I can’t do a mission with his or her Mom, then maybe when your baby grows up, I will do a mission with your baby.” “Ouch!” Elle hit his head because of that. “My child will not become an assassin, you moron!” Elle scolded him. “Who said your child will be an assassin? I didn’t say that! He or she might become a police officer just like Erick.” Black Shadow spat back at her. “Why? Am I not allowed to work with the police authority? Even you and Erick are doing it together.” Black Shadow complained to her. Elle rolled her eyes. “You didn’t make yourself clear a while ago.” “By the way, what brings you here?” “Oh, yeah. I am here to ask you a favor. Can you talk to James? Convince him not to join the mission. He is insisting on coming with us. It’s a dangerous mission. The Skull Gang Leader should stay in a safe place and just let us do everything.” “Why me?” Elle asked him. “Isn’t it obvious. You are the only one who can convince him. He’s the Supremo. He won’t listen to anyone except his Queen. You’re the Queen, remember?” Black Shadow explained to her. Elle could only sigh deeply. “Alright, I will try to talk to him.” “Good. Make sure he will listen to you or else I have no choice but to knock him down during the mission and tie him inside the Skull Gang headquarters.” Elle giggled after hearing that. “You are the only man among the Skull Gang who has the guts to do that to Supremo.” Black Shadow erupted into a peal of laughter once again. “Kitten, one more thing.” “What is it?” Elle asked him with intrigue. “I just wanna say Thank you,” Black Shadow mumbled with so much sincerity in his every word. “For what?” Elle asked him in confusion. Black Shadow gave her a faint smile before answering her. “For your advice. I follow it. I confessed my feelings to Marie. She accepted it. She said she felt the same way. We are now in a relationship.” That’s one of the reasons why Black Shadow wanted to see Elle. He wanted to thank her. Because of her, he found his courage to be true to himself, to his feelings towards Marie. Elle patted Black Shadow’s back and said, “Congrats my friend. You did a very good job! I’m so happy for you.”
