Chapter 89 Did Nothing
Chapter 89 Did Nothing
?
This game is very simple, it's about domestic violence. He plans to regain David's trust once again through Lily, even though he knows David is full of suspicion towards them. But what if the two of them join forces to stage a tragic play?
Brian shared his ideas with Lily and assured her that he wouldn't be too harsh if they started acting. However, as soon as Lily thought about David's abundant resources, she nodded. She was willing to do anything to get hold of those supplies.
Glancing at the time, Brian knew he shouldn't waste any more time. This time, he focused his target on the newcomer, Duke. To make the act more convincing, they intentionally created some noise in the room. Lily even shed a few tears. Once all of that was done, it was late at night.
Opening the door and walking into the hallway, Brian quietly approached Duke's room. When he heard only faint snoring inside, a smirk appeared on his face. He then took out a wire and skillfully inserted it into the lock. At the same time, he placed a towel on the doorknob to prevent any noise when opening the door and startling Duke. After the door was unlocked, Brian signaled Lily, who sighed and stealthily entered Duke's room.
The night passed quickly, and the next morning, Brian woke up early, knowing that a good show was about to begin. He walked into the bedroom, drank a glass of water, and finished it in one gulp. At the same time, he heard a few knocks on the door from outside. He smiled, set down the glass, and walked towards the door. Without hesitation, he opened it because he knew it was Lily knocking.
Indeed, when Brian opened the door, he saw Lily in disarray. Her eyes were red from crying, and her face appeared swollen, evoking a sense of pity. All of this had been prearranged by Brian. Satisfied, he nodded and led Lily towards Arnold's room.
"What's going on?" David, who was called by Brian to Arnold's room, sat on a chair, watching Lily faintly weeping on the sofa, and asked.
Inside the room, Duke looked bewildered, observing this scene. Lily sniffled, turned to Duke, and tremblingly said, "I... I just... entered the wrong room."
"He... he..." Before Lily could finish her sentence, everyone's gaze shifted towards Duke.
Duke hurriedly explained, "No, when I woke up, she was already on my bed, and..." He didn't finish the rest of his sentence.
Last night, Duke noticed that David had placed a bottle of cocktail in his food. For Duke, it was like a regular beverage that wouldn't make him drunk. He had only consumed two bottles before falling asleep. But when he woke up the next day, he found someone else in his bed! That person was Lily, and she was completely naked. What surprised him even more was that when Lily came in last night, he didn't feel a thing!
Just as Lily was about to move, he swiftly covered her body with the blanket and immediately jumped out of bed. Even more shocking was the fact that he was left with only his underwear! He hadn't taken off his clothes last night! Just as he was feeling that something had distorted his perception, Lily woke up. After Lily woke up and tearfully said a few words to him, she ran out before he could ask any further questions.
Instead, he was called out by David, leading to the current situation. Duke pinched his brow and met David's gaze. "Brother, I really didn't do this."
" My underwear is still on, and if something like that were to happen, clothes would need to come off... I'm not that kind of person."
David stared at Duke's expression. At this moment, he believed Duke even more. As for Lily... a thought about Lily's intentions from yesterday flashed through his mind.
Then, David stood up, walked over to Duke, and put his arm around his shoulder, leading him to the side. "Did you really not..." He didn't finish his sentence before Duke explained, "I really didn't do it."
David smiled helplessly and said, "I was asking if you really didn't hear her come in."
Duke hesitated for a moment and shook his head. "No, I didn't hear a single sound!"
David lowered his gaze, pondered for a moment, and patted Duke's shoulder. "I understand."
Turning around, David glanced at Lily and said calmly, "You can go back now."
Lily tightly grasped her clothes and gritted her teeth, glaring at David. When David met Lily's gaze, he couldn't help but smile. Then, he walked over with his hands in his pockets and leaned down, looking at Lily.
Lily claimed that Duke had laid hands on her, but there were no visible scratches on her body. Regardless, wouldn't Lily resist? David stared at Lily's collarbone for a few seconds, and Lily hurriedly tugged at her clothes to cover her collarbone.
"David... What are you looking at?" Lily said nervously.
David straightened up and said, "These little tricks might work on others, But for me, you should give up. Brian, take her back."
If it weren't for the fact that Lily was a healing-type person, David wouldn't have let her stay until now. Lily hesitated for a moment, then looked at Brian, who reacted in the same way. He didn't expect his flawless and secret plan to be discovered by David so quickly. Helplessly, he could only pretend to be angry, glared at Duke, and left with Lily.
"David, is this really the right thing to do?" Duke walked over and asked. David sat down, rubbing his finger joints.
"She deserves the consequences," David said with a smile.
"Ah," Duke sighed and casually sat down next to David. "Am I too young? These young girls are much more scheming than me." As he finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the others who were staring at him. "What I said is all true."
David smiled, stood up, and without saying a word, returned to his own room. Duke stayed at Arnold's place and started chatting with Arnold.
At night, David suddenly opened his eyes upon hearing a sound. The sound came from upstairs. There shouldn't be anyone upstairs!
"David... What was that sound just now?" Sally opened her eyes, rubbed her eyes, and sat up straight. Seeing David sitting there without answering her, just as she was about to speak again, David grabbed her hand. At the same time, thumping sounds came from upstairs once again, followed by the sound of things falling.
No, there clearly was someone upstairs. David became tense. He let go of Sally's hand, uncovered the sheets, and summoned his armor, preparing to go upstairs and see what was happening.
"David." Sally grabbed his hand and furrowed her brows.
David turned his head, caressed Sally's head, released her hand, and held it in his own palm. "Wait for me here, okay? I'll be right back."
Before Sally could reply, David walked out of the room, grabbing Little Black who was sleeping and heading outside. As soon as David left, the commotion upstairs became even more frequent.
Sally's body tingled, and she tightly covered herself with the sheets. "Meow." Cola jumped onto the bed, stepping on the sheets and slowly walked up to Sally's side. It glanced at Sally, then turned around and lay down next to her. Looking at Cola, Sally gently stroked it, as if telling Cola not to be afraid because she was there.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you no matter what happens." Saying that, Sally hugged Cola in her arms.
After David walked outside, Little Black opened its eyes drowsily, realizing that it was being carried by David, and made a mumbling sound. It seemed like a complaint, yet also a sign of happiness. Seeing Little Black wake up, David gently put it down.
David held an alloy battle sword in his hand and made his way to the upstairs room. As soon as he reached the room, a scream came from inside."Ah!" David listened to the sound and furrowed his brow.
