The Queen Wicked Deeds - Chapter 130
“Henry, say ah…”
“Ah…”
“Good…” Beth was giving little pieces of tart to Henry while the classes had not started. She was so engrossed in looking at him that she forgot that she was seated in his ŀȧp, and John was in the front seat and Norah was fuming in anger in the left seat after being asked to move very cordially by Beth from the other seat.
Henry seemed to be so happy, as if he were in heaven. The last few days after he confessed his true feelings, Beth had been especially caring and gentle towards him. It didn’t mind even that he was busy with his mission, she will even help him sometimes.
“Did you find it?”
“No,” he shook his head, “it moves constantly.”
He told her that his grandpa had made several missions for him to do if he wanted to inherit the company. One was to find a treasure before a week.
The other competitors had been monitored very closely by Henry’s men to steal the treasure from them if they have it, however, no one had been able to predict its movements for the past three days.
“Let me see that,” Beth took the tablet from the hands of Henry, there was a map with the last locations of the treasure. However, it doesn’t seem to move with a pattern, it was random.
Beth nodded and smirked. “Do you want to know how to find it?”
“Then come with me to a date after school tonight.”
She whispered and smirked. “What do you say?”
“Okay,” he nodded but was a bit worried.
The other competitors were also tracking his steps and monitoring him closely. However, they never had a chance as they were led to different routes and the people spying on him had been disposed of very quickly.
They also knew that he was going out with Beth, and that gave him a strange fear. She was the only one that can make him lose his mind, and he didn’t know what would he do if some of them manage to harm her.
“What are you thinking?” Beth frowned when she looked at him very pensively. “Don’t you want to go out with me?”
“I will love too, but…” he sighed, “you should wear a disguise.”
“Hmph… why? Are you ashamed of my appearance?”
“I don’t want anyone to see you. I will get jealous.”
Beth chuckled and kissed him on the cheek, “then you should wear one too.”
The pair of lovebirds didn’t mind that they were being watched by the entire classroom. Some girls were squealing on the side, some boys were cursing Henry, but a blonde John and a blonde Norah were already picking from the dog food they were forced to eat.
“Get a room… tch…” John turned around and noticed that he had several messages from his lover. “Mmmm… I think I am the one to get a room after school…”
“When are you going to introduce him to me?”
Beth had heard his not-so-obvious remark a few seconds ago and to distract her embarrassed face from looking at Henry that was also red in the face, she had to move her head to the side and change the topic. However…
“I can introduce him to you… but it will have to be another day, I will make him mine tonight… you can meet us after the hotel checkout if you like.”
Beth’s face was redder and redder than ever. “You… how can you…”
“What?” He turned around to look at the pair of red-faced lovebirds. They had been kissing and being intimate, though, the kind of innocent intimate with each other. No more than a kiss or a ċȧrėss in the cheek or holding hands, but further than that, nothing.
John had been fed dog food from the first time the two of them met. It was evident they liked each other, and the whole school knew it. Therefore, no competitors came across to claim Henry or Beth, there were no jealous bullies or fan clubs asking for them to break up.
However, John was growing angry, the two lovebirds had been going out for more than half a year, and they will go to different colleges after that. Still, they hadn’t gone on any date. Not even once until now. So, it was fine to spice things up, right?
“That… *cough* it can be later… we can schedule something for later…”
“Why? Don’t you want to meet him?”
“Yes, of course, but I don’t want to disturb your time with him.”
“You won’t, he was eager to meet you too,” John smiled and showed his puppy eyes. “You will come, okay?”
“That…”
“Bring Henry too…”
The boy that was paralyzed for a second moved his head to the side. It is not that he hadn’t thought of it, about that with Beth, but he was afraid that he will become distracted… yes, distracted to focus on some important things.
“Henry?” John raised a brow, “will you come? We will only meet each other as a couple date. Though, you will have to come to the hotel very early in the morning.”
“That… *cough*”
“But you are going on a date tonight, right? You can even stay in the same hotel as us…”
The other students were shaking their shoulders, some of them were even snickering, and even Teacher Johnson was trying to control her laugh when looking at the two tomatoes. She had been hearing the discussion from outside the room, it was so interesting that she had to wait a couple of seconds. However, before there could be an explosion of heated heads, she had to enter to save them.
“Let’s continue with what we left… pff… hahahaha… I am sorry, this is so… hahahahaha!”
It was impossible, the whole classroom erupted into laughter without remorse.
However, the two lovebirds were still in their own world outside the classroom universe.

“This… do I look good in this?”
Beth was wearing a black-haired wig and a beautiful blue dress with a jacket and heels. She looked amazing. It was not enough to cover her natural beauty.
“You…” Henry gulped. He was also wearing casual clothes and a cap with some glasses. “You look beautiful.”
Beth blushed again, and some flowers came sparkling behind her. The whole crowd behind them was whispering and commenting. Some of them were even taking pictures.
There was no need to disguise themselves because they were attracting everyone’s attention.
“What should we do now?” He asked when she took his hand.
“We should walk around,” she said with a wink, “I think I know a way to find your treasure, just follow my lead.”
“Okay,” he smiled and walked behind her, though, he was nervous.
It was not because of the many spies that were following them because he had his men taking care of them. It was not because of the other competitors that were watching them too because they thought Henry had already given up the first mission the same as them.
It was because the mall she had asked him to go to was next to the hotel John was staying. It was one of the Mill’s many hotels they owned and if he wanted to, he can get the best room. They will not have any trouble and will not be disturbed, but… ‘What am I thinking?!’
He shook his head and followed her, trying to focus on his steps. However, the same as him, she was shaking because it was not her intention to bring him to that mall, but the treasure was in that place. She had predicted it by analyzing the pattern on the map.
It was not that difficult because she had seen it before. Those places that were signaled in that map had one thing in common, and just one thing that can be obvious and signify something, they were the spots where a love movie was shot.
It was a small indie movie that depicted a pair of lovers separated by the murder of one of their close friends. It was a cruel and tragic movie that didn’t last many days inside the theaters and was easily forgotten, but Beth would never forget it in her life because the day she met Henry for the first time, they were shooting the movie near them.
She can remember it like magic. And so, she ended watching the movie many times, almost memorizing every scene. She wanted to go on a date with Henry and talk about the movie too. However, as it was a love story with some scenes for grown-ups… she was hesitating.
