Selene nodded her head slightly.
Xavier clenched his fist together in anger.
"That woman got guts," he murmured under his breath before he turned to look at her. "What do you want to do to her?" He asked her.
"Nothing. Leave Michelle entirely for , I will be the one to handle her," she replied, an evil grin on her lips. She hadn’t told Xavier about that information yet because she knew if she did, he would imdiately be angered by it and would want to hurt Michelle.
The fact he was angry that sothing bad had happened to her made her heart feel warmth, but she didn’t want Michelle to get hurt. She still needed to toy her around a bit more before she discarded her.
Xavier gave her a questionable look as if asking her if she was sure about that. She smiled at him in response.
Xavier continued to help her with her hands until her fingers weren’t hurting her anymore. The room was quiet without anyone saying a word, and sohow, they weren’t uncomfortable at all. They enjoyed each other’s presence without wanting sooneinterrupting them.
But the silence was short-lived when all of a sudden, a girl barged into the room.
Both their heads turned towards the door with a cautious look.
"Savior," Amanda squealed before she ran towards Xavier and Selene.
Selene stared at the girl with a questioning look. She had seen her in the room where Richard was kept, and now, countless questions flooded her mind about who this girl was and what her connection to Xavier might be.
Amanda sat down beside Selene and stared at her with wide eyes.
"Are you savior’s girlfriend?" Amanda asked with sparkly eyes.
’Savior?’ Selene thought to herself as she coked an eyebrow at the girl.
Amanda was dressed in pink pajamas, clutching a ragged teddy bear in her hand. Selene couldn’t miss the splash of blood on the bright pink fabric. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she turned to Xavier, a questioning look on her face, demanding an explanation.
"No, Amanda. She’s my wife," Xavier replied.
Selene’s heart skipped a beat at that fact.
Amanda’s eyes widened even more with admiration. She scooted closer to Selene, staring directly into her eyes. Selene couldn’t shake the feeling that the girl was peering into her very soul, her intense gaze both unsettling and srizing.
"She’s your wife?!" She squealed with joy. "She’s so beautiful," she added.
Xavier sighed and dropped the pack of ice that had lted on a nearby table before she turned to Amanda.
"Have you forgotten what I told you earlier today?" He questioned Amanda. The girl frowned slightly, trying to rember before she snapped her fingers.
"I’m sorry savior, I forgot," she said.
Amanda stood up from the bed and stood in front of Selene with a smile on her lips that made her look different from the psycho she was. Selene stared at Xavier with a questionable look but he stared back at her with an assuring smile.
"Hi, I’m Amanda," Amanda said, stretching a hand forward for a friendly handshake.
Selene stretched hers as well, "I’m Selene," she said, returning the smile.
The both of them shook hands and Amanda couldn’t help but notice how soft Selene’s hands were.
"Your hands are so soft," she complinted.
"Thank you," Selene replied.
After the introduction, Amanda sat down beside Selene again and engaged her in a conversation.
Xavier ended up having a phone call so he had to excuse himself, leaving Selene alone with Amanda.
Deep inside, Selene didn’t want him to go because all Amanda was saying was about how to torture Richard in the organ where it would hurt.
"When you stabbed him earlier, you didn’t hit any vital organs so he’s not going to die. He only scread in pain because of the sharp tear of his skin but that’s it. If you want to hurt him right where it hurts, you can stab him near his heart. I wanted to stab him there one ti but savior prohibited ," she blabbed before pouting at the end. After taking a deep breath, she continued. "You can cut his fingers too, that’s savior’s most favorite part. The pain is very excruciating," she added, her hand on her chin as she tried to co up with a better way she could hurt Richard more.
Selene stared at her while silently hoping that Xavier would return soon. She felt if she stayed any longer with Amanda alone, she would be even more traumatized than she already was.
Amanda’s words faded as Selene concentrated on another thing—Amanda’s beauty.
Even though her pajama was stained with blood at the front, most probably from Richard’s blood, her hair looked neat. The pigtails made her look so cute and younger.
’Could she be one of the girls Xavier saved?’ she wondered. Amanda reminded of the girls at her NGO.
It’s almost been a year since she saw them, but it was risky to go there. To everyone who didn’t know about her true identity, she was Selene. If she went there, questions will be raised.
Xavier walked inside. When he saw the look on Selene’s face, he couldn’t help but smile.
"Alright, that’s enough chitchat for you Amanda. It’s ti for Selene to go ho," he declared.
Amanda pouted so cutely that it touched Selene’s heart.
"Please stay longer," she pleaded while staring at Selene. The latter didn’t have the heart to decline so she stared at Xavier.
"It’s already 7 pm, you need to go ho and rest for your shoot tomorrow," he told her.
Selene had inford him in the car earlier about the shoot that would start very early the next day.
"Just one more hour," she said.
Xavier sighed, nodding.
"Enjoy," he said.
As soon as those two words were said, Amanda grabbed Selene’s hands and continued to tell her the vital places where she could hurt people.
At the balcony, Xavier puffed his cigarette, sighing as he stared at the dark sky.
Kace walked up to him, sensing the dark cloud that hovered above him.
"What’s wrong?" He asked.
Xavier puffed a mouth full of cigarette smoke, and released it before sighing again.
"The trade is going to be held in the next two days. I have to go there myself," he replied.
