"We ran some tests and found out that the driver already hid poison between his teeth before the crash happened. He planned to commit suicide once things went awry. Thus, he must be a trained assassin that came prepared."
Queeny's face turned steadily cold as Felix spoke.
The scene of that car pelting at her regardless of consequences surfaced in her head again.
Noticing the change in her expression, Felix reminded her, "The person who killed Sarah was that driver. I don't know much about his background yet. I still need time to investigate. But if you go out to take revenge, no matter how good a fighter you are, what you can do is limited. Perhaps they'll capture you in no time.
"Then, if you get killed, who else in the world will avenge Sarah? Do you want her to die with regrets?"
Queeny shivered all over!
When she looked up at Felix, a blank look was in her eyes.
"Then what should I do?"
"Stay here."
Felix suddenly placed a hand on her shoulder, sending a wave of reassuring force to her.
"Whatever you want to do, I'll do it with you. If there are things you can't do, I'll help. But the premise is, you must stay here and be safe."
Queeny looked even most lost.
She gazed at Felix. At this moment, she just couldn't understand what this man was thinking.
She asked, "But don't you hate me? To take vengeance for your dead buddies, you even wanted me dead. So why are you protecting me now? What are you up to?"
Felix's fingers stiffened a little.
An inexplicable feeling surged from the bottom of his heart, making him ill at ease.
He looked away to avert Queeny's gaze.
After moments of silence, he finally said, "You can take it that... I'm going crazy."
Queeny was bereft of speech.
At last, she chose to stay.
Felix was right. For some unknown reason, two forces outside wanted her on the ground.
She must still carry a secret or something, or the Zircon Association wouldn't want to catch her alive.
Even Queeny herself had no idea what the secret might be, let alone Felix. Therefore, she only had two options. One was to find out what the secret was before her enemies did and figure out what they wanted before overpowering them respectively.
The other was to try to get something on the opposite parties and then turn the tide at the last moment.
But which force was the second gang? Who else wanted to get her out of the picture so badly?
Though Queeny didn't know the answer yet, she would find it out sooner or later. As long as she was alive, she could hunt them down no matter who those people were or where they went.
Then, she would bring them to Sarah's tomb and kill them with her own hand so that Sarah could finally rest in peace.
Now that Queeny decided to stay, she would still use her old room in the side building.
Bella was elated when she heard that Queeny left. Later, when she learned about the accident, she was so overjoyed that she couldn't even sleep that night.
But then, somehow, she heard the others say that Felix rescued Queeny and brought her back.
But she wasn't too worried. After all, what Felix was thinking and planning was not something she couldn't meddle in.
She told herself that Felix only rescued Queeny out of sympathy. Queeny would leave anyway. Thus, this interlude didn't matter at all.
But now, she heard that Felix had persuaded Queeny to stay.
And she was already back in her room in the side building.
"What does this indicate?"
"Does Felix want to be a two-timer? Is he hoping that I and that woman will share him?"
Bella had overlooked one thing. Given Felix's attitude toward her and her relationship with him, she wouldn't need to worry about sharing Felix with another woman, for Felix was never her man.
