Do or die? Ella's stomach dropped when she heard her and thought what was really going on between the two of them? "I'll come with you."
"No need, mom. Go to sleep. His villa is just a few minutes away." Janet then changed her shoes and then walked out of the villa.
On her way to mansion No. 9, Janet texted Daniel, "Wait for me. I'll be there in two minutes. Open the door for me."
But no reply...
Ella now entered the bedroom upstairs, and struggled whether or not to tell Samuel that their daughter just went out. In the end, she picked up her phone, and called Daniel: "Hello, did Jane arrive?"
"Yes, I just saw her now." Daniel opened the door of his villa and saw that Janet was staring at him with fire in her eyes.
Samuel curiously looked at his wife and wondered where Jane had gone out.
"Okay, you talk with her. When she decides to come home, I'll ask your sworn father to pick her up."
"Don't bother mother*, I'll give her a ride home."
(*TN: sworn mother) Daniel dragged Janet inside and then closed the door.
When Ella finished talking, Samuel knew that their daughter was with Daniel now, and so he stared at his wife discontentedly.
Ella sniffed, and said, "Why are you staring at me? Jane insisted on going there."
"Keep Daniel away from Jane."
"Tell her yourself, if you can control her, that is." Ella sat on the bed and covered herself with the thin quilt.
Samuel was speechless and now just stared at his wife.
Now that this was his problem again, Samuel picked up his phone from the nightstand and prepared to call Daniel.
"What are you doing?" asked Ella.
"I'm calling Daniel to ask him to fire Jane."
Ella snatched his phone from his hands, and said, "Never mind, that's their own business. Let them take care of it by themselves."
...
The No. 9 mansion was magnificent, a dream house that could belong only to rich people. It was the poor man's dream and the rich man's paradise.
However, now, among the riches, there was something more going on in the villa.
They two stared at each other like mortal enemies.
"Here I am. And, by the way, I quit! Goodbye!" Janet said what she had to say and then proceeded to leave. This was outrageous, and she normally wouldn't have done it, but now she didn't care. She didn't give a damn anymore.
The man caught her by the wrist, and asked, "Janet, do you like Brian?"
He should mind his own business. Janet then stared at him, "Don't bother. Take care of your girlfriend and mind your own business!"
"Answer my question! Now!" Daniel ignored her anger and asked her coldly. It seemed that he already knew everything that had happened in the camp.
Seeing Daniel's cold reaction, Janet just wanted to kick him. If he really didn't want to see her, why had he asked her to come? And now that she was there, he treated her badly. What was wrong with him? So she answered him, with anger in her word, "Yes! Yes, I like Brian! What's wrong with that? Is it any of your business?"
Daniel loosened her wrist, and then asked, "So, have you already slept with him?"
Janet's head exploded and then her face turned red. "Slap!" She slapped him the very moment he had finished uttering his words. The villa was in complete silence now.
Janet saw Daniel's dark face. She rubbed her now aching hand, "Daniel, you buthead!"
The man gradually looked at her and harshly pressed her against the door behind her. He was all burnt up and stared at Janet, "I'm gonna kill you today!" he said.
He then quickly dragged her by her wrist upstairs.
"Let go of me, now! Daniel! You monster! I don't want to go upstairs! No!" Janet struggled to free herself and couldn't notice herself dropping her phone.
