Chapter 125: 125 125: Unexpected Date Part 2

In the other side of the restaurant, Ken and Daniella were having a serious conversation about the fire in the school. They had finished their food and sipping on their wine.

Both of them leaned at their chair and, stared at each other. Ken was suspicious of Daniella's reaction after Mark told them about the fire. She looked devastated in the dining but, after the triplets left, her face turned back to normal as if nothing happened.

"Shorty, tell me. What's the deal with the school? Did you forget to pay your electrician that they decided to burn your school?" he asked. Based on the news he read, the fire was due to an electrical problem which he finds odd given that Daniella and Danny made sure that everything was set before they open the school.

Daniella shrugged her shoulder, refusing to answer him and, with that, he confirmed his suspicion.

"So you burned it yourself. Why?" he asked. There were no casualties, aside from the mannequin Alexa was crying about the whole day. The girl even requested to have a funeral for the mannequin.

His eyes were narrowed as he waited for her response.

"I was bored" Daniella rolled her eyes t him.

"Bored?" he gasped in disbelief, and continue, "Shorty, when people are bored, they don't burn a building down especially school. Do you know how Evan worked so hard to build it? How many politicians he corrupted just to get that land?"

His sister shut her eyes and, lowered the wine glass on the table. When she leaned closer to him, he realized that she's about to throw him a harsh word.

"Brother. Do you think I will burn it without a valid reason?" she asked him.

Ken rose an eyebrow when he understands what she meant. Knowing her, it is possible.

"Fine, let say you have a reason to do it. Tell me why" he rested both arms on the table and, looked at her deeply.

"I am too lazy to explain it" Daniella blurted and leaned back on the chair once again

Hearing those words made Ken's expression flattened, suddenly a demon in his head urged him to torture her cheeks until she speaks.

"Does Alexa know about this? For sure she will be devastated when she learned her mother was the person who burned her beloved doll" he plastered a vicious smile when he saw her face went pale.

"Are you trying to blackmail me?" Daniella asked in unbelief. Ken shrugged a shoulder as a response, unbothered by her reaction.

"You should have seen how she arrange the intestine of that mannequin, she wrapped it with laces and put butterflies everywhere. Don't let me get started with the mannequin's face," hearing those words made him laugh, he could imagine Alexa's little hand struggling to wrap the laces around the silicon organs.

"She's five years old. Why does she need to do it?" he asked.

"Well," Daniella sighed and continued, "her teacher asked them to provide something that they can bury and dig after their graduation. Ethan made a letter for his future self, Leo painted me while Alexa, decided to be creepy and, bury a mannequin with an open abdomen, she said she wants to frighten her future self" Daniella explained.

Ken was shocked, he was not expecting that Alexa was starting to act creepy at such a young age.

"Oh well, at least we know that Alexa will be just like you once she grows up" Ken lifted the glass to share a toast which Daniella accepted.

"To the future creepy Alexa" he winked at her and smiled.

"Let just hope she will be as pretty as me"

Ken snickered, "fine, but less narcissist" they both shrugged a shoulder and, drank their wine.

As he lowered the glass on the table, his expression became serious.

"Daniella" he called her name. The woman looked at him with her deep brown eyes.

"What is it Ken?" she replied.

Ken cleared his throat and, parted his lips to say what he had in his mind.

"I am planning to restore the Blue dragon" he spoke in a straight tone.

Daniella went silent while her finger circled around the mouth of the wine glass.

"It's up to you Ken, all I can say is I regret what I did and, if ever you will renew the organization, I will support you" Daniella spoke after a long moment of silence.

Ken wasn't expecting for her to agree, as she was the one who dismantled it. He had prepared a long speech in his mind on how he will explain it to Daniella without killing her but, then he remembered that she's Daniella. She must have known it long before he made that decision.

He took a long breath and, gestured the waiter to serve them another glass of wine after Daniella finished her glass.

"So, how are you going to do it?" Daniella asked as soon as the waiter left and, he knows what she meant.

"You should have known that my - our father was able to sustain his business by producing drugs and selling them. Of course, it includes killing the competitors and, corrupting politician. So, I was thinking to make is less illegal" he started while drumming his finger on the table.

"And what's that?" Daniella asked. Acting like a psycho smelling her wine.

"We will provide protection to the business owners, politician, rich people and in exchange, they will pay us money. In that way, we can hire some more people, gain power so you wouldn't need to run around the world like a crazy woman" he folded his hand and waited for her response.

"Continue," Daniella said and focused her attention to him.

Ken plastered a small smile, he knows he can do it without Daniella's consent but, he preferred to have her on his side.

"Example. Senator Gong, we all know that he's a corrupt, rapist politician but, people are blinded by media because they portrait him as a kind-hearted bald man," saying that, Ken showed the picture of the politician he saved in his phone earlier.

"You need to access all his file and, expose all his dirty deed. Then his supporters will be furious because their beloved senator whom they trusted so much is actually spitting at them." Ken paused when Daniella lifted a hand in the air, gesturing him to stop.

"So, for this senator, you want people to hate him so we can offer our protection. Is that right?"

Ken smirked when he realized that he doesn't need to explain it further.

"Yes, so what do you think?" he asked.

Daniella went silent once again, her eyes were staring at the red wine as if the answer was in the glass.

"I told you I will support you but, there's something I need to tell you first." Her gravely tone made Ken's forehead creased in confusion. He's getting a bad feeling with how Daniella delivered those words.

"What"

Daniella sighed.

"I burned the school because the organization that was after me and Danny were using the school as their hideout. I just found the mole this morning"

Ken tilted his head in confusion, there was a lot of people in the villa that he doesn't remember all of them.

"Who?" he asked.

Daniella emitted a long sighed once again.

"Ken, who's the person who's been by my side since Danny brought me back?"

"Who's the person who had access to everything? My house, school, and even my office"

Ken went silent as he fell deep in his thought.

He couldn't think of anyone, anyone except.

When the name flashed in his mind, his eyes widened in shock and looked at Daniella to confirm his thought.

"Mark?" he asked, "He's with Danny right now!" he continued, still shock.

Daniella nodded and sadness clouded in her eyes.

"Yes, Danny is with him now, probably tutoring him but, do you know what's the worst part is?" Daniella spoke in a broken tone.

Ken felt a thousand needle pinning on his heart by the sadness he's seeing at his sister's eyes. He reached out to her hand and held it tightly, showing his support.

When Daniella looked at him, two tears dropped from her eyes while her lips shook as it parted.

"Kierry is one of them and, I don't know how to say to Selena that I will need to kill her mother" her broken voice was piercing his heart. He got up and occupied the chair next to her and buried her face to his chest while his hand caressed her back. He wanted her to feel that she doesn't need to be afraid and feel alone.

"How did you know?" he asked.

Daniella pulled herself and, wipe her tears away.

"Yesterday I tested him. I said I forgot to log out the school system so I sent him there. I told him the laptop is in my daughter's locker. The moment he opened the locker, the bomb started, it was set to explode in 30 seconds but, as long as you put the right code you can extend it." Daniella paused and gestured the waiter to give them some more wine.

After the waiter left, Daniella continued.

"That stupid code, it was Danny's idea" then she let out a wicked laughed while her head shook as if she just deceived the devil.

"The moment he entered that code, I got all the information about their organization including the people who are working with him. It's a small organization but, full of powerful people"

Ken gulped repeatedly, he had known Mark for some time. His brother was the previous bodyguard of Daniella who died when she was abducted by the previous Princess of Aldovia.

"What is the code?" he asked, wondering how Mark got the information.

Daniella sneered.

"Brother. Normally, when we are on the brink of death, our brain processed faster than anything. So when he saw the screen showing the logo of the organization, his finger worked by itself and input the password he's using to transfer all the file he gathered to me to his boss. Which connects me to everything, and one of the servers was owned by Kierry" Daniella explained and once again, he saw the pain of being betrayed by someone in her face.

Ken went back to his chair after making sure that Daniella is comfortable again.

"So what's the plan now?" he asked.

Daniella clicked her tongue and repeatedly stabbed the last piece of meat she left on the plate.

"By this time, the organization knows what I discovered so they will start attacking. So brother, from now on, you will need to sleep with one eye open" saying that, Daniella got up from her chair while her hand picked up the steak knife.

Ken creased his brows in confusion and, wondered why she's holding the knife.

With one hand, he reached to her and stopped her from walking away which made the knife fell on the table.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

Daniella looked back at him and, the dark expression she had in her face was making his skin to crawl.

"I kept hearing my husband's voice and, there's also a woman laughing with him. So, brother, I need your help" Daniella paused and pulled her arm from him and picked up the sharp steak knife on the table.

"Get a coffin because I am going to kill that bitch!"
