Chapter 649 -

“You look like a princess.” She said with the warmest smile she could

ever give; she was happy for Rose because she wished the world's all

happiness for her sister from god.

Rose hugged Nina and sobbed, Rose might be naive, unlike others, but

she felt Nina was in pain; she couldn't tell why or how,

but Rose never asked her because her brother asked them not to say

anything that would upset Nina even more. It was already a miracle she

was with them after going through her past depression.

“Sister, do something for me; try the dress I selected for you.” Rose

pointed at a dress she and Kate picked for Nina because Rose wanted

Nina to be a bridesmaid at her wedding.

Even though the wedding ceremony would be held later, she still wants

to walk to her new life with Nina and David beside her.

Nina looked hesitant, but when she saw Rose's eager eyes, she

couldn't refuse; she walked to the dress and touched it; this dress was

only one piece in the entire world since Starlight produced them; Nina

was familiar with the worth of the clothing.

But her brother's generous character never made her worry about

money, not that she was worried about money; she was concerned

about something else.

Her mind was not there, a thought hunting her for the last few days that

she tried her best to hide but couldn't.

Kate grabbed Nina’s hand and took her away from them.

“Do you want to share your worries with me? I see you've been off-

minded for the last few days. Did something happen that I don't know?

If yes, please tell me.” Kate felt something was wrong with Nina.

Nina shook her head. “Nothing sister in law, I just don't feel well and

feel a little strange these days.”

Nina cut off the world, she knew she shouldn't hide it, but she felt a little

guilty for telling them the truth, but she felt if she told them about her

secret, Rose's happiness would be on the line, and she wanted to wait

until Rose gets married peacefully.

She would never ruin her sister's happiness.

Kate felt Nina was not going to tell her, so she didn’t force her and let

Nina change in the changing room alone; Kate decided to talk to David

about this later.

After a while, Nina returned, and everyone looked at her in surprise.

Nina was a girl who always walked around without caring about what

she wore and what would suit her. She felt it was a waste of time.

But the feminine touch on her continuously blooms the moment she

puts on something which suits her character, like now, she looks more

like a bride than a bridesmaid.

"Sister, I'm going to find a brother-in-law for me at my wedding. I'll not

listen to you even if you refuse. I'll find the world's best man for you.

You're so gorgeous; it's a crime to be single.” Rose teased Nina when

she felt it was a pity if Nina stayed single.

Nina stiffened, even though she knew Rose was teasing her; a thought

flashed in her mind; she couldn't help but almost kick her brain for

thinking so much nonsense.

The ladies laughed, and they soon packed all the shopping bags and

let the bodyguards carry them. Then, when they were about to leave,

Kate remembered she had left her phone inside the shop when they

were drinking coffee.

She looked at the bodyguards. “Stand here; I'll go to get my phone

back.”

Since it was a few steps away from them, she didn’t think much and got

in. But since Kate went shopping with them, David told them to be

secretive about their identity outside.

So everyone covered their faces.

Bodyguards waited outside the shop; Kate went inside; she went to the

waiting area and saw her phone on the middle table; she went to pick

up the phone and saw a shadow on the mirror behind her.

Her eyes went to her forehead in horror, so much that she felt her heart

jump out of her heart; Kate became alert and screamed almost

immediately.

“Ahhhhhhhh........" she felt her voice was not loud enough, she tried

even harder, but she said

The bodyguards were just a few steps away from her when she

screamed; they almost entered and checked on their madam,

The team leader first checked around her; when Kate saw her

bodyguards, she felt she was about to fall when a pair of hands

grabbed her and supported her body.

Kate flinched, but only for a second, and when she found out who it

was, she broke down. “I just saw him.”

Kate grabbed David's neck and sobbed. In just a few minutes, she felt

she had gone back to the moment she opened her eyes in that cage

and saw that man,

it was none other than Oscar Astor and this time he was not in his mask

anymore, the scar, these eyes which made her feel like she had lost

her soul.

David carried his woman in princess style; Kate buried her face in his

chest and tried to calm her racing, petrified heart.

David looked around suspiciously; he knew what had happened. Even

Kate didn't tell him clearly; he looked at his men coldly. “I'll deal with

you all later; for now, find me every clue just happened here.”

He ordered in his piercing tone.

These men lowered their heads and received their order, yeah they

were in the wrong; they shouldn't lower their guard,

but the most shocking part was it was just a few seconds, and the man

just disappeared into the air; they upside down the entire shop and the

mall, but no clue was found, as if he had vanished into thin air.

David carried Kate to his car and told his men to drive Rose and Nina

along with Amy. When David came out, Alex was already waiting

outside the mall since he had come with his master.

When he heard the details from their man, Alex was terrified; he also

knew fear because that man broke through his master’s protection net

around their madam and almost reached her.

Which was the shocking part; they underestimated him.

David looked at Kate, who was shivering like a sacrificial hen; he felt

his entire world darkened; he hugged the woman and kissed her

forehead again and again.

“Wifey, don’t be afraid; I'm here.” David felt ashamed to say this; how

could he think that man wouldn't do something tricky?

Kate didn’t care about words; she clung to him like a frightened child

who had seen something horrible and failed to forget it.

David hugged her even tighter and whispered, “Darling, Just look at

me; no one is here; he will never come around you again.” David

narrowed his eyes when he thought how foolish he was when he

thought for a second of his revenge.

But since he was not returning, David decided to take another path.

Kate raised her head and looked at her man “darling, I saw him; he was

there, the scar, he has a scar on his face; I can’t misunderstand it even

if I forget the world.” Kate touched her face and cried.

David kissed away her tears.

“I believe you, but darling, he was not there. He deceived us with a

digital system; it was his hologram, not the real him,

otherwise, he could never despair in thin air, he could never break in,

and he knows that better than anyone in this world; he just wanted to

test us because he was not sure, but now he is.”

David explained the situation; he checked around with a mere glance,

the shop didn't have a second door other than the entrance, and his

man was already standing in front of the gate, so there was no way He

could come, but he used his trick and scared them to tell them he knew.

Kate's heart burned with hatred, and she gritted her teeth “I don’t want

this hide-and-seek play anymore, finish this because if he is capable of

scaring us, that means he is playing something, and I can't feel safe

with this fear.

He once reached our home to our children; he would do it again if he

gets the chance, just put him in his place so that he would never come

back to our life, it might be a trick from his side, but darling, you didn’t

see his eyes, I saw, this time he will not stop on just craziness, I

fear......",

Kate didn’t want to say more because it would hurt both of them, and

the last thing on this earth, Kate pulled him.

David already would blame himself for their pain for life, and she would

never let it run deep again; Kate's fears turned into rage, that bastard

not only hurt her and her children, but he also touched her bottom line,

David Xiver.

She thought she would have a peaceful life even if that demon were

somehow around them, but it seems even if she were safe at home,

there would be no guarantee outside, and she would never be a caged

bird just because a beast wanted to ruin their lives.

David kissed her eyes. He hated seeing this Killing intent in her eyes for

any reason because he lived in darkness and wanted to keep her from

any darkness that would paint her heart and soul in black.

He knew once one sees the evilness of this world and tastes them in

their soul, no matter what, the pureness in their soul would never come

back, and they would never feel the world’s beauty without hesitation.

Even though his world was Kate, and that's why he was able to feel

happiness and witness the world's beauty, not everyone was the same.

He knows the world has two sides, one is light and full of happiness,

and one is dark with cruelty,

“This is the last time you have seen him,” David spoke up, but he didn't

make a promise this time. Instead, he took an oath after ignoring the

matter he was investigating.

Investing in finding out the truth about the past and going to hell since it

has been passed, he would let it become a past again, and this time he

would clean it from the root.

Kate hugged him again and fell silent; she believed that since her

husband said she would never see him again, he had already changed

his plan, and it was already enough for her.

Kate felt tired; her soul and heart were still feeling the shaking terror

she felt at that moment. Finally, Kate laid back and slowly drifted into

her sleep. Kate always had terrible habits; whenever she would be sad

or afraid, she would sleep to calm her mind.

As David saw her slowly fall asleep, he looked at the front. “Alex, stop

the investigation on this matter,” David ordered; in this world, since

there was no reward for goodness, he decided to be cruel.

Alex was a little shocked, but he understood his master’s intention; that

man decided his path, and they decided to walk on their own “Okay,

master.”

Before anything, they had a family to protect, so it doesn’t matter who

Oscar Astor was and what he did for anyone; he is not that person

anymore.

Soon they reached home and saw her sleeping; David didn't disturb her

and picked her up and went inside. When he entered, he saw everyone

waiting with gloomy expressions; he already understood what they

knew.
