She looked up and said, "What do you want from ?
"..."
What type of question is this?
"I don't want anything from you"
"Why?!"
"What do you an by why? Why would I want anything from you?"
She looked at the ground and hugged herself saying, "So you hate so much that you don't even want a gift from "
What's wrong with---gift?!
"What gift?" I questioned.
"Your birthday was yesterday, right?"
"Yeah,"
"I want to give you a birthday gift"
Then ntion the before! Though my answer is still the sa.
"I don't want anything from you"
"But I want to give sothing to you"
"Why are you being so generous today? You won a lottery or what?"
"My first project got sold"
Augustus!
Dammit!
She has t him. I can ask her so questions.
"I don't believe soone would buy a project like that"
"I sold 20 million"
20 million!
Calm down Das. Keep up the act.
I took a deep breath and said, "I won't even buy that at 2000"
She swung her fist as she yelled, "Don't dodge"
She kept swinging her fist at my face as I stated, "You know, you have a very short temper"
Even though she was out of breath, she kept swinging her fist at .
I grabbed her fist, or I tried to, but since she was swinging it, my hand touched hers and ended up touching her breasts.
She slapped with her other hand.
That wasn't really my fault, but...fine.
She glared at with her teary eyes and said, "Just say what you want for your birthday gift"
"Fine. I will say. But first, tell how was the buyer"
Since he shouldn't have the mask at that ti, Selena must have seen his face.
"Why do you want to know that?"
"No questions."
She squinted her eyes and said, "Suspicious"
I turned back and tried to leave, but she grabbed my hand shouting, "Fine, fine. I will tell"
She is just like Elena.
I still rember how I made Elena do things for . Sotis, I did that on purpose only to see her reaction.
I am not so proud of that thing.
I turned back and said, "How was he?"
"I didn't see him"
"Was that online?"
But Elena said Selena had gone to et the buyer.
"It wasn't online"
"Then how is it possible that you didn't see him?"
"He didn't co. But I bought my project"
"How did he buy it? Like, you sent him the blueprint?"
She nodded.
"And he transferred 20 million to your bank account?"
She nodded twice.
"You gave him the account details...wait! How did he even contact you in the first place? NO one knew about this project, right?"
"It was an abandoned project, so yeah. No one cared about it"
I know how he contacted Selena.
He used his system.
Why did he do that?
"And...what else?" I asked.
"Nothing? Once I received the money, I ca back ho"
"What kind of idiot are you?"
Her face twitched as she said, "Did you just call an idiot?"
"I did"
"Did you seriously call an idiot?"
"Yes"
She glared at in anger, but soon took a deep breath and said, "Why did you call an idiot?"
She just swallowed her anger!
"Your deal is unofficial"
She slowly tilted her head and said, "Why?"
This girt
"You really are her sister"
"I will take that as a complint"
"But it wasn't a complint
She furrowed her eyebrows and said, "Enough now. Give a valid reason for calling an idiot"
"Are you really the daughter of world-famous lawyers?"
"Ah!" Selena's eyes widened. As if she had realized what I was trying to say.
She looked at in full panic and said, "What should I do now?"
"You can't do anything"
Augustus did buy Selena's project and gave her money. But there was no paperwork, or any legal deal.
No contract, no signature.
The entire deal is invalid.
"I was in a hurry at that ti"
"Let guess, 'I am already late and El is waiting for . She will surely get angry. And today is a special night for her. She would hate if I ruined it'. That's what you were thinking at that ti, right?"
She nodded and said, "It's exactly what I thought'
Sigh~
I can't bla her here.
Earlier, I wasn't sure of what reason Augustus bought Selena's project.
He would have easily stolen it, but he didn't.
He also paid her 20 million, which I believe is more than enough.
He could have made an online deal. That would have taken much less ti, but he didn't.
He wanted to keep her occupied.
He first called her and asked her to et at the said location, then he made an online deal. He was trying to waste her ti.
He was...trying to save her and Elena from that attack.
Is this really possible? Or am I just thinking too much?
If he wanted to make suffer, there were plenty of chances to do so.
He could have killed any of the girls I love.
It's really easy. Since they have no protection.
But he didn't.
He even saved Daulla.
Just who the hell is that guy?
He says he hates Edens. But he would never try to kill them.
He talked about his clones and the emotions in them. He said he would let his clones act on their emotions.
Is he really an Enemy?
"Das?"
I was brought back to my senses as soon as I heard Selena's voice.
Dammit!
Das. Keep it together.
That Augustus is an enemy. And he has to die.
I will kill him with my own hands.
Sigh~
Selena sighed as she said, "Okay. I have decided what to give you as a gift"
Wow. What happened when I was lost in my thoughts?
I cleared my throat and said, "What?"
"I have decided I would give you the sa gift as El"
"...."
Should I tell her what gift Elena was supposed to give ?
No.
I can already imagine what would happen if I did that.
I will try to escape that.
I gulped down and said, "There is no need to give any gift"
"You hate so much that you don't want any gifts from--"
"Fine, fine!" I shouted as I said, "Stop saying that one"
It really pisses off.
"Nice!" Her eyes sparkled as she said, "So, what did she gift you?"
"She hasn't given it to yet"
"Huh?" She titled her head and said, "She forgot to give it to you?"
"No. I an...it got delayed, I guess?"
"Is that so?" She said with a wide grin.
She is happy!
She is happy that I didn't get y gift.
"Then...' She fidgeted as she said, "We both will give you together then"
I kind of want that...no!
Das! What is wrong with you?!
How can you even imagine that?!
"Okay then," She spun and said, "We both would give you the sa gift together"
Please stop!
"Do you..." I took a deep breath to gather my courage and said, "Do you know what gift I am talking about?"
"No," she spun again saying, "But since El is giving you, it must be sothing you like."
So innocent and cute!
I really wanted to avoid this. But it looks like it's my fate to face this.
Heh!
Very well then, I shall accept this fate.
"Elena...was going to gift her...virginity"
"Then I will--," She stopped spinning and yelled, "I won't give you my virginity!" and covered herself with her hands.
"I don't want that!"
And now, the scene I imagined.
She grabbed my color and said, "You already defiled my sister, and now...you are going for her sister?! What type of man are you"
Even though I had already imagined she would say this, it really hurts.
"You were the one who said that. I was telling you to stop"
She bit her lips and said, "You already have 3 other girls than El, so I guess you won't mind if one more girl falls for--"
"Four other girls," I quipped.
"Wait!" She let go of my collar and said, "How do you know what I was going to say?"
What is she talking about?
"Could it be...El told you?!" she questioned.
"She hasn't told anything" I answered.
"Then," she took back so steps and said, "Could it be that you...you...." Her face flushed as she stuttered.
"Daulla"
"Huh?"
"You know Daulla, the maid?"
"Yea...h. She also died protecting the place last night"
"No--" I stopped and thought.
Should I tell her that Daulla is alive?
I want to keep it a secret.
But...she is Selena. It should be okay...right?
"Daulla is...." I glanced around and used my system to check the surrounding areas.
"I rember Daulla," She looked down and said, "It's only a hazy mory, but I rember her playing with you, and Lier"
"Are you talking about the ti you stayed at the place ten years ago?"
"That must be it. I an, that's the only ti we all were at the place together, right?"
"Yeah"
"So..." She looked at and said, "It must be painful for you, right?"
"It was"
"Was? You are not sad anymore?"
"I am not"
She forced a smile and said, "I guess you are a strong person"
I am not.
I turned into a monster after seeing Daulla in that state.
"Daulla is alive"
"Hah?"
"It's complicated to Explain, but Daulla is alive"
"Well," She shrugged her shoulders and said, "If you say so"
"And I am in love with her"
"Of course you would love her. She is like your mo--"
"Romantically," I added.
She was smiling a while ago. But now, she is gritting her teeth while biting her lips, and glaring at with her frowned eyebrows as her face twitched.
