SCARLETTE
"Why can't I see her?" she asked John. "I just want to see her. Just once!"
"I can't let her know that you are involved in this." John's calm reply was already something that Scarlette expected. She knew that John liked her and he would do everything to keep her safe. However, this is really annoying.
"But I really want to — "
"There's no need to see someone dying," John uttered.
"I told you not to kill her yet!"
"Exactly. I am not going to kill her. However, this didn't mean that I won't — she slapped me once. It is only right that I have my revenge, right?"
"She actually slapped you?" she eyed John's bloodied face. She immediately knew that the man was lying. How could it be a simple slap? John's face was swollen, his lips burst. How could it be some slap? "She knew self-defense?"
John's face darkened. "It wasn't expected. It was not included in the information that we had on her."
