Chapter 144: Little herbivorous animal
n threw the handgun at Ellem which made the other two men stand pointing their weapons at Ellem instantly. Their duty was to keep n safe even if they have to kill hundreds.
"Pick up." n said through his teeth.
Ellem and other men couldn''t understand why n was asking her to take the handgun.
n growled, "Point at yourself <strong>NOW</strong>."
Ellem was frightened to the core by his oppressing tone and quickly followed his order in her trembling clumsy hands. Before she could even realize what she was doing n grunted.
"Shoot."
<em>''Snap''</em>
Everything went to silent mode after it.
Ellem fell on the floor like a lump and red fluid slowly spread on the white floor.
The two men gulped looking at n''s side profile who didn''t flinch even a little while ordering.
Ellem had followed his ruthlessmands because he didn''t want to dirty his hands by killing.
They were trained to be heartless so that they could kill on orders but it wasn''t easy for a normal person to be so heartless.
They had thought Vince was overreacting for just a girl but they didn''t expect his friend''s life was that girl.
n didn''t bother about cleaning up or anything and left soon. A man stayed by to clean n''s traces before he left.
Other than the head, Aria hasn''t hurt anywhere except small bruises. They had to keep her on an oxygen mask due to inhaling smoke for a long time.
Since the hit was on her hair clip, there wasn''t any bleed inside her head. The doctors made sure to double-check every procedure.
When n reached back, Aria was shifted to the Intensive care unit.
n rushed inside to see her on the white bed under an oxygen mask.
The more he tried to make her carefree, one or the other things made her back to serious. His heart ached to know she always ended getting hurt because of him.
He thought and he wanted to keep her away from suffering but his presence in her life hurting her more again and again.
Vince spoke to doctors and shifted Aria to his vi with the oxygen cylinder. It was afternoon four when they settled in the vi.
"n, rest for some time. Aria will wake up soon."
n just nodded without bothering to say anything. Vince sighed and dispersed his men away from the mansion before he went to get fresh and get back on work.
When Aria woke up, she saw n sitting on the couch using his arm to block the light on his eyes.
"Al... n."
n reacted instantly and went to her. "Aria, is it paining too much? Are you fine? Do you have a breathing problem? Are you feeling anything abnormal? Shall I call the doctor?..."
A tear rolled down her eyes seeing him worried. She kept her slender fingers on his lips, "Shhh... I''m just sleepy."
He gently wiped her tear as he nodded, "Okay okay rest."
Frequently batting her eyelids due to sleepiness, Aria couldn''t voice and patted on the bed for him. It took time for him to understand that she was asking him to rest.
Aria again drifted off frowning her brows failing to speak.
n leaned on the headboard and pulled her to his arms. His lips subconsciously tilted up seeing her settling brows and faint smile as soon as he held her in his embrace.
If she was somebody else, they might hold him responsible saying<em> ''I was kidnapped because of you.''</em> but he knew well, she never med him and felt safe around him than anybody else.
It was dinner time when Aria woke up and her stomach growled a few times. She removed her oxygen mask and n woke up by her movements.
"What happened?"
After proper rest, Aria was a little better. She pointed on her nose bridge, "It''s paining."
n smiled faintly seeing her pout. He gently massaged with his finger as they spoke. If not touched on her head near the wound, it wasn''t paining much but she felt her head too heavy.
Vince who was leaning on door for nearly five minutes failed to get their attention so he coughed lightly.
"Are you guys going to fill your stomach with sweet talks or need any food?"
"I''m famished." Aria whined but paused briefly, "Do I have to eat porridge or something? I don''t want that. I''m really hungry."
Vince just waved his hand calling them out as he left. n carried her to the bathroom to wash her face before taking her out to the dining table.
Aria licked her lips and dug into the table full of tasty food. n served her whatever she wanted as he ate.
Vince''s speed was like snail seeing her try all the food except green sd which he had thought she would eat and prepared for her.
After eating, she had her medicine and saw Vince had just eaten steak. "Brother Fan! is that chicken steak enough?... By the way, you have a good chef."
n spoke, "Vince prepared dinner."
Aria was surprised and pointed at the two dishes which she wanted the recipe.
Vince mechanically answered before turning to n, "I thought your wife is deer but she turned out to be a pig."
Aria: "..."
n controlledughing looking at her but he chuckled after getting a punch from Aria.
"That''s so mean." Aria stood up to leave but n made her sit back and nced at Vince who quickly exined.
"I mean, seeing you I thought you will just eat sd..."
"I had chicken sd."
"I mean a green sd. But you had other dishes."
"Am I looking like a little herbivorous animal? Why will I eat grass? That looks so unappetizing." She made faces at the untouched bowl.
Vince wasn''t sure how to react so answered her question, "You actually look like an herbivorousmb... no piglet."
Aria: "..."
Vince wasn''t sure why she became expressionless.
n asked, "Aria, are you full?"
Aria decided Vince really doesn''t have a heart and she knew he never lies and told what he felt. So she innocently nodded hearing to n.
"Want ice cream?"
Aria nodded multiple times thinking she could get ice cream but n asked again, "Chocte?"
Aria hummed and heard two menughing. She realized that she just proved she was a piglet.
She ignored them and checked out the magnificent mansion as two men washed dishware before searching her.
n saw her asleep on the lounge near the pool. Vince spoke seeing n trying to carry, "Let her be in fresh air for some time. It''s better than an oxygen cylinder gas."
n let her down as he hummed.
Vince''s vi was away from the city and a single mansion around the uphill so air freshness was good.
"Why does Aria has a GPS? Was she lost or kidnapped before?"
n hummed but didn''t go in deep about kidnaps and attempt to kidnap.
Vince''s grim tone sounded, "Why are letting them live freely?"
n didn''t reply. Vince understood, "Did your investigation failed to find them?"
Vince couldn''t believe there was somebody who could outsmart n. "Call me if you need to handle anybody." Because n tries to keep it clean but Vince doesn''t think before cleaning up efficiently.
n nodded and spoke for sometime before returning to their rooms with sleeping Aria.
