Shin gaze at her, puzzled, she called him? "I"m sorry, i"m really sorry love, don"t worry, you"re safe now." he gently spoke, kissing her hair and forehead.He then removed his suit jacket and put it around Yeri, carrying her out like a princess.
"Boss, this woman is still alive, what should we-" Brain asked, while checking Tiffany"s pulse but didn"t get to finish his words, when Shin abruptly left with Yeri.
"let"s have the hotel staff do that job, for now we have bodies to take care of." Ears replied, looking around.
Outside, Shin impatiently demanded for a medical team and asked to lead them to the hotel clinic.
"how are you feeling? did they hurt you? when did you call me?" Shin asked, uneasy.
Yeri just sniffed, intentionally disregarding Shin, she felt better now that she just consumed 3 souls.
"i thought you didn"t bring your phone with you." Shin explained, kissing her hair again. "do you know who are those people? who are they after?"
Yeri remained silent till they reach the hotel clinic, truthfully, she has no right to get mad at him, to imposed on his love towards her.
Rage? Madness? no that"s not it, but Greed.
Her eyes fixated on Shin, as he gently put her on the sofa, checking for any wounds or cuts, looking genuinely worried.
"give me a damp towel." Shin asked the clinic staff but his gaze never left Yeri. "are you hurting somewhere?"
The staff quickly went back bringing a damp hand towel in a basin, his about to hand it to Yeri when Shin took it and started wiping Yeri"s arms and feet, in a careful and light manner, crouching down.
Who is this person?!
The staff almost fainted witnessing the infamous Demon cleaning a woman"s foot! unknowingly, the on-duty Doctor had long turned frigid, standing at their back, completely out of place.
"I know, i was late...I"m sorry." Shin said with a crestfallen face. "I knew where you were even before you called me, did you really think i"ll let someone take you away?"
Yeri shook her head, feeling guilty. "are you hurt?"
A smile of relief radiated on Shin"s face, at least she"s talking now, although he"s still worried the incident might severely traumatize her.
"I"m perfectly fine, love- hold on," Shin promptly checked his phone, expecting Tristan"s update.
Out of the blue, Yeri swiftly s.n.a.t.c.hed the phone from him, his gaze met her gloomy eyes, feeling wronged.
The staffs face turned ghastly white while watching them, there"s actually someone daring enough to act like that with Shin Keir?!
She"s simply digging her own grave!
However, the unthinkable happened, Shin instead cupped her face with his hand and softly kiss Yeri. "It"s Tristan, just give me a minute to talk to him. I will get to the bottom of this, no one will walked away unscathed after what they did tonight."
Yeri didn"t protest when Shin took the phone back, still she looked unconvinced. She knew she"s being unreasonable, but how can he quickly answer someone"s call now when she was just mad at him earlier for ignoring her distress call?
Shin sat beside her and decided to decline Tristan"s call, shortly after, Ears came in, carrying Yeri"s shoes with him.
"Boss, that other woman was taken to the hospital and the police just arrived, also Mr. and Mrs. Zhi will be here soon, we couldn"t delay them any longer." he said, bowing down, oblivious of the staffs stupefied faces.
Shin briefly glance at Ears, then shifted his attention back to Yeri. "I"ll be outside, stay here with your parents, we"ll talk later."
Standing up, he gave the present staff a stern look of warning before heading out.
"Shin!" Yeri suddenly called out to Shin, who was already at the door. "thank you...for everything."
Shin warmly smiled and left the clinic.
"till i see you again." she muttered, her eyes full of regret and sadness.
-------------------------
Meanwhile, Tristan skillfully handled the situation outside and apprehended the rest of them, the black van was parked in a secluded area, just a few blocks away, at the back of the hotel.
He took out a pack of cigarettes and lit up one, sounds of police and ambulance sirene can be heard from a distance. "It started huh?" Tristan thought.
"Boss Tristan, these idiots won"t spit out any information no matter how much we torture them." one of his men said.
"how many of them still breathing?" Tristan asked.
"there"s 3 of them."
A wry grin appeared on his lips, he puffs his cigarette and a trail of smoke dance in on the air, the rich scent of earthy and spice lingers. "torture? were still in the prologue, you know where to take them."
The man nodded, going back to where his companions are. When the group left, Tristan calmly walked back to the hotel, he has a lot of questions going on his head that maybe Yeri can answer.
How did Yeri attract the attention of a Mafia Boss?
Is Grego Dayton aware of Yeri"s relationship with Shin? could he be after them and is planning to use Yeri?
For Grego to send 20 men just to abduct one woman, what is he up to? is he looking down on their organization?
Tristan"s expression darkened, outraged. If only they had manage to find these rats earlier, then Yeri"s banquet wouldn"t be ruined.
He promptly dialed a number and pressed his thumb for fingerprint confirmation programmed on his phone, after a series of encrypted codes, the call went thru.
