"Are you Mr. X?"

The atmosphere of the room become sour, every moment in it froze. Even Sam who was about packing his tools almost tremble, why is this girl asking for the forbidden fruit? Sam said inwardly.

Lilah stared at Mr Charles, waiting to hear his answer to her questions. Although her heart was racing but that didn't stop her for getting to know the true identity of this man.

Charles stood slient, examine the looks of the pale girl sitting on the bed. He smiled, strode towards her in a slient tone which throb her heart more. She could feel the heartbeat of her heart hitting against her chest. With the man slient and creepy smile on his face makes her more terrified than ever

Sam who was clueless watch the two in amazement, he really wants to see what Charles would do to her, with more curiosity, he took a seat to watch.

Immediately, Charles stood in front of her, she swallowed, the man closeness was too close, she could feel his hot breath on her face but she never dare to look away. His grey eyes were fixed on her.

"What a bold girl you are" he patted her head gently.

Sam on the other side of the room was amazed with the man attitude toward the girl, he had never seen him in such a way before...

He couldn't hide his excitement and sighed childish

"Awww "

Then, Charles stop his patting on her head, turned fiercely at Sam. "what are you still doing here?" His fury voice asked.. before Sam could say a word to defend himself, the powerful tongue cut him short

"Your time is over , you can leave now"

Sam sighed, he was expecting to see a show full of romance but now, the mood is ruined.. before he left, he waved a hand to Lilah.

"See you later darling" he barge out.

Now the room is quite remains the two individuals, Lilah felt more frighten. But she couldn't let her guts down even in the frightful stage. She boldly asked

" You're Mr. X right?" She wasn't sure about her instincts, she still wants to know from the man mouth. This man have been stalking her for some days now. It would be clear if she comfort him now.

What did he wants from her?

With his slience to her words, she continues, not breaking the eyes connection.

"You're the one who killed Mr Rogers right?"

The man smiled, " So, you figured that out, not too bad" he leaned his face closer to her.

Lilah break into cold sweat, it's can't be true! He was the one who killed Mr Rogers. Then, if he was the one, what did he wants to do with her now! That word breaks her heart. Her hands were shivering, she couldn't breath properly.

" What... Do you want for me? "

Charles smiled mysteriously, the girl that was acting brave to him some days ago, was now a scared kitten. What a girl,

" I want you" he coldly whispered to her skin, makes her blood runs rough in her vein. He wants her? Do he wants to assault her?

The tension the man was giving to her was full of fear and anxious, she did not know how to escape from this. Her hands were clenched to the bed sheets of the mattress.

"Do you want to kill me?" She boldly asked, after some minutes of her slient trying to calm thing's down.

"No" he smiply said, which she felt a little relief on that.

"But that didn't mean you're free from me" he added, seeing the girl was a bit calmed. He draws back,

"You.. haven't answered my question, are you Mr X, please tell me the truth" she pleaded hopefully

The man stared at her for some minutes before answering. " No, he's my friend and he hates when people cheat him. You and your friend have cheat him"

Lilah heart skipped, he wasn't Mr. X but a friend to Mr X ! This is not good. That's means he knows everything about her and Rosary..

With quick response, she said " I don't... know what you're saying" she stammer.

The man laughed, such a sweet girl , although the truth is right in front of her, she was still trying to protect her friend.

He walks closer to her again, bend a few inch to her face. " You owned me" he said, patted her head and left like the wind..

Lilah raised up, looked around her and saw no one. If Mr. X have known about her, it would be better if she starts running away now

"You should answer the call, you never know who are calling" Lim said coldly, with his straight legs crossed in royal way ...

Charles give in and picked up the call. Immediately his face darkened after he heard the caller voice.

"What happens?" Lim asked, reading the dark looks on his friend face.

"An asshole is trying to assault the girl that played you"

"Interesting, what are we waiting for? Why don't we join in the fun" the devil said with a wicked smile. 

Now, here's them are. 

As soon he entered the car. "How is the girl?" Lim asked, calmly.

Lim smiled deviously, there one news, he was dying to heard is about getting the girl, Rosary

That all that matters nothing else. " You like the little woman don't you? " Lim asked, sip a little from the glass and glanced at his friend with quizzically looks

" No, I'm just helping you to get the girl back! " Charles retorted, hurriedly, he didn't want Lim to suspect his little crush on the little woman. But Lim is a man of observation, he is like a arrow when it comes to people thoughts and feelings...

" Are you sure about that, because when you heard a strange man came to visit her, you didn't even give me the information I required for and rush us here"

He knitted his eyebrows.

" Can we please change this subject, I'm starving" he slaps his fingers and the men guiding the car. entered and start the engine. Charles take a last looks at the little villa before the car drove away..
