77 Tying Up The Loose Ends
Kiba brushed a strand of her hair from her face and then gave her a light kiss. He didn't say any word regarding the dark side for he couldn't bring himself to lie to her.
In his life, he has killed far more people then he could care to count. Just some 10-11 days ago, he killed Lisa and her team at the wasteland. Then there were the slum overlords and their subordinates whom he slaughtered in cold blood even though there was no grudge involved.
As far as he was concerned, he has embraced the so-called dark side years ago. But he couldn't tell this to Agatha. He wanted her to be in the sweet dream without having to worry about reality.
Kiba also couldn't bring himself to hate or reprimand her for stopping him at Sarah's house. He knew her actions were motivated due to the feelings she had for him.
She believed he would be haunted by his actions. That was why she intervened. So how can he bring himself to hate her then?
Similarly, she didn't kill Daniel because she wanted to believe, if the roles were swapped then they would spare Kiba.
Deep down one wants to believe in the concept of karma. Believe that kindness of today would be reciprocated tomorrow.
Agatha's thinking was naive but he understood her perspective. He didn't wish to admit that her actions have touched his heart once again.
"You must be tired so have some rest," Kiba left the bed and covered Agatha with a blanket.
"I will," Agatha nodded her head. "I am having an appointment with a gynecologist tomorrow so can you accompany me?"
"Whenever you need me I will be there," Kiba thought something so he quickly added, "If you don't mind can you visit my lab after your appointment?"
"You have a lab?" Agatha was surprised.
"I do have some expertise in genetics," Kiba tried to sound humble, "So I established a small lab."
"Sure!" Agatha has some reservations but she agreed due to her trust in him.
"See you tomorrow then!" Kiba said as rays of white light surrounded him.
------------
City Heart Hospital.
Daniel rested in the VIP ward. His mouth was covered with an oxygen mask while his hands were covered with various tubes.
He was transported to the hospital to give him emergency treatment. Agatha might have spared his life but he has sustained heavy internal wounds.
Daniel didn't dare think of revenge or even complaining to authorities. He has witnessed the strength of Kiba and Agatha so there was no question of revenge. As for complaining, how can he carry out such an act without letting the world know he was a cuckold!?
"You seem to be doing fine," A familiar voice waked Daniel from his thoughts.
Kiba?!
Daniel's eyes turned wide. His face quivered seeing Kiba standing with a bouquet.
"I don't have much experience with hospital visits so please accept this," Kiba placed the bouquet on a table nearby.
"W-what are you doing here?" Daniel asked with fear evident in his voice. He pressed the emergency switch in his hands but there was no response.
"Obviously I'm here to check on your health!" Kiba read the medical report on the digital screen, "Your arteries are seriously damaged but otherwise you are fine."
Kiba then arrived before the oxygen cylinder.
"Ple-please don't!" Daniel muttered. His voice was muffled due to the oxygen mask but Kiba could hear him properly.
"What do you mean?" Kiba looked at him in surprise, "I am just checking if the cylinder is fine or not."
Daniel refused to believe Kiba was so kind-hearted.
"What's with that look?" Kiba placed his hand on the oxygen mask, "I might not like Agatha's decision but I will honour it!"
The tension Daniel felt drastically reduced. He knew Kiba truly cared about Agatha so he was safe.
"But you can rest assured there would be no next time!" Kiba has a devilish grin on his face as he said, "If I find you or Sarah having slightest nefarious thoughts against us, I will burn your entire family to ashes!"
Daniel felt a chill down his spine. His entire body went numb from dread as he imagined what Kiba was capable of. He swore to never offend this demon ever again.
"Anyways, you are truly lucky that you only tried to capture Agatha instead of trying to kill her," Kiba's expression turned nonchalant, "If you had shown even faint killing intent against me or her then I would have killed you right there. Not even Agatha's pleading could have saved you."
Daniel's breathing turned hectic. He felt more fear seeing how Kiba talked of killing with a nonchalant expression.
How can one be so calm about such a topic? Even Daniel only said he would kill Kiba in anger but never truly planned to do. There was a risk of being caught, and such risk was high when there were business rivals who would do anything to see their opponent fail.
But Kiba mentioned killing as if it was nothing.
"I'm sure many people in the underworld are envying your luck," Kiba took an apple from the fruit basket, "But then again you didn't carry true murderous intent because you knew the consequences."
".........."
"The greater the height of power, the greater is the fear of falling from it," Kiba took a bite, "Life would have been so much better if the idiots I killed thought like you."
Creak~
The door of the ward opened.
"Kiba?!" Sarah muttered in disbelief.
"The lovely lady is here!" Kiba's voice was polite, "I was just thanking your husband!"
"Thanking?" Sarah tried her best to not let the fear show on her face.
"Yes!" Kiba nodded, "Daniel has volunteered to make sure that no media house gives Agatha negative publicity when the truth is revealed!"
Sarah and Daniel were shocked. Sarah could judge from her husband's reaction that he has never volunteered. Of course, she lacked the guts to say so.
She complained in her heart though. To ensure the other media houses remained silent on this topic would cost SBC News a lot.
"You have four days before the deadline ends so relax!" Kiba assured her with a smile.
Sarah could only curse inwardly. She never thought a single wrong decision would cost her both emotionally and financially.
"I almost forgot!" Kiba arrived in front of Sarah and gave her a crystal card, "You would need it."
"?" Sarah tapped on the card. Under her eyes, text appeared on the card's surface: 'Kiba - President of Wife Pleasuring Service Ltd.'
Sarah looked at the words in shock. She suppressed her shock and activated a holographic projection.
"Wife Pleasuring Service Ltd is a non-profit organization, founded on the belief that the pleasures of your wife are the only things that truly matter in this materialistic world! To help wife like yours, our company provides------"
Before the ash-blonde woman in the projection could finish her words, Kiba tapped on the screen to pause it.
"That recording is for husbands," Kiba swiped a few panels on the card menu, "This one is for a new wife. Now this one is for a fiancee. Ah! Here is the one for a patron wife like you!"
"We are thrilled to offer our service to a gorgeous lady like you!" the ash-blonde woman has a sincere smile on her face as she said, "If you are seeing this then I am sure you know about our wonderful service!"
Dark lines appeared on Sarah's face.
Daniel was able to hear the recording as well. He felt his blood boiling as he remembered the familiar voice in the projection.
"Even the best marriage turns stale with time!" the blonde woman said in a convincing tone, "But you are one of the lucky few who could save your marriage from becoming stale and boring!"
The projection was now complemented by statistics.
"As per a detailed study carried by Happy Couples Organisation, marriages are always strong when a third party is involved! Competition from the outside party keep your partner on toes!" the blonde woman pointed towards the stats, "The survey conducted by our in-house expert also proves that only when the wife is happy can the marriage last!"
Daniel gritted his teeth when he heard the word 'happy'. He has a strong dislike for that word.
"What better way to make you happy than by giving you the pleasure you deserve!" the blonde woman has a look of reverence as she continued, "You can now have all the pleasure you missed during the course of your marriage!"
Daniel was having a hard time breathing properly. If not for the oxygen mask, he would have suffocated.
"After the demo experience, you are craving for more!" the blonde has a knowing smile on her face, "But worry not! You can apply for premium membership for free!"
Sarah really wished to destroy the crystal card in front of her.
"You crave for more but your guilt towards your husband stops you!" the blonde woman has a sweet smile on her face as she continued, "Worry not! Your husband is happy to see you happy!"
Sarah was stunned by her words.
"You are probably thinking we are lying in order to complete our non-profit mission!" the blonde woman has a rare look of seriousness on her face. "Our company is based on your trust, unlike our fraud competitors! Don't believe us? See for yourself!"
The blonde woman disappeared. The projection then displayed a recording from a hotel suite.
Daniel's body started trembling. He could guess the contents of the recording.
"No!" Daniel screamed.
The projection showed Daniel pleasuring himself at the video of Sarah and Kiba fucking like rabbits.
"It can't be...!!" Sarah was terrified by the video. She looked at her husband in shock.
The recording ended and the blonde woman reappeared in the projection.
"When a wife marries her husband, she swears to make him happy till the end of her life!" the blonde woman was like a wedding priest reminding about the promises. "Now you know where the true happiness of your husband lies!"
Daniel started coughing up blood in anger. The internal injuries resurfaced again.
Sarah, on the other hand, was so shocked by the holographic projection that she didn't even notice the state of her husband.
"Don't wait any longer!" the blonde woman excitedly continued, "Become a Good Wife today!"
