The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective - Volume 2: Their Paths Cross Again Chapter 467 467: No News Fr

Marie opened her flower shop very late this morning. She was feeling down because Brandon didn’t contact her yet. Today was supposed to be the day of his return from his out of town trip. But until now, she didn’t hear anything from him.

She thought maybe Brandon changed his mind about meeting her parents, that’s why he was avoiding her. She messaged him several times but she didn’t get any response.

“What happened to him?” Marie mumbled to herself as her eyes were fixed at the door of her flower shop, waiting for Black Shadow to appear.

“Did he extend his work? But why is it he didn’t inform me? We are supposed to meet my parents today and introduce him to them,” Marie couldn’t help but feel upset.

Her mind was occupied by Brandon Stone aka Black Shadow. She kept racking her brain, just thinking of the possibilities of why he hadn’t responded to any messages that she sent.

After a while, she became restless and unsettled.

“What if something bad happened to him? Since we started seeing each other again, Brandon didn’t break any promises he made to me. He’s always on time when replying to my messages and call.”

Marie grabbed her phone once again and dialed his number. A while ago she was reluctant to call him, thinking he was still busy with his work. But Marie couldn’t take it anymore.

She was worried about him. It was unusual for Brandon to break their agreement and not responding to her messages. To her disappointment, his phone was unattended. Her worries intensified because of this.

“Brandon, where are you? Please, call me.” Marie’s grip on her phone tightened. She was praying that Brandon was safe.

She looked down and scanned her phone once again. Marie frowned when she realized she couldn’t contact anyone from Brandon’s side. She didn’t meet any of his friends. She didn’t have any contact with people close to him.

She felt helpless as of this moment. She had no idea what happened to her boyfriend. She was worried about him but she didn’t know someone whom she could contact to ask about his whereabouts.

Indeed, Brandon Stone was still a mysterious man. There’s still a lot of things she didn’t know about him. He also didn’t talk about his parents nor friends. He didn’t even reveal specific details about his work or business.

Marie could only sigh and wait for Brandon to return her messages and calls.

*** At Dark Knight Organization’s Mini-Hospital ***

Kevin was already awake. Kelsy visited his brother. His face was swollen from beating. Kevin also got purple bruises on the different parts of his body. She could tell that Black Shadow was the one who did this to her twin brother.

“Where’s that bastard? Is he still alive? I want to torture him right now. Bring me to him!” Kevin said with his infuriated voice.

Kelsy just rolled her eyes skyward and shook her head. The dispute between Kevin and Black Shadow started when her brother learned about her relationship with Black Shadow.

Though Black Shadow was Kevin’s friend at that time, he was against Black Shadow’s romantic relationship with his twin sister, Kelsy. He got mad at them for dating secretly behind his back. He felt betrayed.

His relationship with Black Shadow became worse. Then Kevin asked Kelsy to choose between him and Black Shadow, either she would break her relationship with Black or she would sever their ties as brother and sister.

At that time, Kelsy had not realized yet how much she loved Black Shadow. In the end, Kelsy chose Kevin. Then she betrayed Black Shadow.

He was hurt badly by Kelsy’s betrayal. She was the cause of his first heartbreak. She’s the first-ever woman he adored so much. The first woman he devoted himself to but she just broke his trust.

Since then, Black Shadow became distant from the twins. Then the twins accepted works outside the country. It helped Black Shadow to move on and forget about Kelsy. Not seeing her lessened the pain he was feeling.

Kelsy was still reminiscing the past when they heard a knock. They were currently inside Kevin’s private room. Kelsy allowed the man outside to enter the room. It was one member of the Dark Knight who was assigned to watch over Black Shadow.

“I am here to report. Black Shadow finally woke up from the ICU. the doctor gave his go signal to transfer him to a normal room,” The subordinates informed them.

“Oh, so he is still alive. He’s from the enemy’s side but you are treating him like a VIP patient? Are you out of your mind?” Kevin scolded the man.

He was furious because Black Shadow had beaten him into pulp last night. It was two versus one. How could he fight back if Catseye was aiming his gun at him? His pride and ego couldn’t accept it.

He wanted revenge. He wanted to get even at Black Shadow. Kevin was about to stand up from his sickbed when Kelsy stopped him.

“Can you please calm down? We need Black Shadow, or else, the Dark Lord will blame us for our failures. You are not allowed to touch nor hurt him as of now. I need to convince him to side with us again. The Dark Lord needs information about his enemy. Black Shadow can give those pieces of information to him.” Kelsy tried her best to pacify her angry brother.

She needed her brother to cooperate with her, not fight Black Shadow. She didn’t want Black Shadow’s life to be put in danger. The Dark Lord would not hesitate to kill him right away once he refused to talk nor cooperate with them.

“You are just saying that because you don’t want to harm him. See my face. He is the one who did this to me. Why are you protecting him? Are you still in love with him? Did you forget that he betrayed us?”

“Brother, did you also forget that we are the first one who betrayed him?”

Kevin was taken aback after hearing that. He could see the saddened expression of his twin sister.

‘Did she regret it now? Betraying Black Shadow before?’
