Genius Girl

Chapter 256 - 256: New Beauty

After arriving, he was met by Camille.

"Where is Evan?" Camille asked holding Ken\'s arm.

She hasn\'t seen him for days and she couldn\'t even contact him. When Ken looked at her hand holding his arm, she pulled away and took a step back.

"He won\'t be home for some days," he said and walked past her. Just as he was about to enter the house, Selena came rushing to him.

"Where is Daniella?"

Ken rolled his eyes, "do I look like police? I don\'t know where everyone is," he spoke in a low voice, afraid to offend the girl yet annoyance was all over his face.

Behind him was Novie and her parents. He decided to bring them over to Su Villa since this house had tight security. Just for some time while he figures out what Althea\'s real plan was. He couldn\'t risk bringing them to his place since some of his men were also working with Jared.

Selena\'s face screwed up. She kicked Ken in his private part and left running.

Ken groaned in pain while his body bent holding his private part. Definitely not expecting for the girl to kick him in his nuts.

When he felt a hand on his shoulder, Ken looked up and saw Novie staring at him with pity.

"What?" he roared angrily.

Novie pulled her hand away and ran behind her father again.

Ken straightened up. He called Anders and asked him to prepare two rooms for the McSalter.

"Whoa! Who is this beauty?" out of nowhere, Matthew\'s voice sounded.

Ken looked up and saw Matthew running towards them like a wind.

Then, Matthew stopped in front of Novie and held her hand. Ken immediately pulled Novie closer to him by her wrist and glared at Matthew.

"Back off!" he yelled at him.

Like a puppy, Matthew\'s expression softened. He pouted his lips and asked, "Where is my mushroom?" he scanned the people that came in with Ken but he couldn\'t find anyone that looked like Daniella.

"Your mushroom is getting eaten by someone. So, f.u.c.k off!"

Matthew was baffled by Ken\'s words. So, he lay a hand on his shoulder stopping him from leaving.

"What do you mean?" his expression has turned serious.

Ken sighed, "Daniella is getting married."

Matthew gasped so loudly, "but what about me! I don\'t remember proposing to her," he exclaimed with both hands on his chest, clenching his shirt.

Ken rolled his eyes, "don\'t worry. You\'re not the groom, neither Evan," saying that loudly, Ken threw Camille a glance who was eavesdropping, "so please no more question."

Ken dragged Novie upstairs while her family followed them.

"Why did you bring your girlfriend here!" Matthew yelled at him, "don\'t you have a house!"

Ken blew out a sharp breath, he was about to answer when he suddenly thought of his situation. Seemed like it was better for everyone in the Su Villa to know that he was Novie\'s boyfriend so they wouldn\'t snitch to anyone that he had Jared\'s family.

He gulped hard and looked at Novie\'s face full of confusion.

"My house is full of men. I can\'t have her around them," he replied.

Matthew\'s eyebrow raised, "this house is full of men too. I am one of them!"

Ken twitched his lips while sizing up Matthew.

"I don\'t think so. I far as I remember, Daniella broke up with you," and with that, Ken continued to walk upstairs still holding Novie\'s hand.

Mathew gasped so loudly. He pointed his shaking finger at Ken angrily, "what do you mean? I am a man! Do you want me to prove it to you?"

When his words registered in his mind, Matthew\'s body froze. He looked around and saw the maids and guards together with Camille looking at him with shock.

Glen shook his head after Ken yelled at him over the phone. He only called to ask if he had found Jared\'s family but the man said no yelling at him and ended the call.

"What has gotten into him," he murmured and looked ahead of him. There was Evan, somehow his injury healed in two days just like what happened to Allan. He wondered if it has something to do with the liquid in the syringe that Daniella left.

The Queen of Galla was helping Evan to change his clothes. No matter how much Evan refused, she still helped.

Glen sighed and walked towards them.

"Ken couldn\'t find them. He said that when he arrived, the house was empty including their closet. Seems like they know that you are looking for them."

Evan who had just put on his shirt noticed how Althea\'s face darkened. Her jaw was clenched as if she was gritting her teeth.

"Don\'t worry. We will find them," he said to calm her down. She had stayed with him for two days and helped him recover.

They haven\'t left since Kim\'s people were everywhere. They were just waiting until everyone became busy with their boss Jared wedding so they can leave.

Thinking of the wedding, shadows appeared underneath of Evan\'s eyes. He felt as if someone was gripping his heart, hurting him from inside.

"Thank you."

Evan went back to reality after he felt Althea\'s hand on his hair, brushing his hair with a comb.

"It\'s fine," he moved away and got up. Daniella\'s tissues indeed helped him recover faster.

Meanwhile, Glen didn\'t ask a word to Evan about Daniella. All he knew was that he had accepted the fact that she was marrying someone else. And seemed like the possibility of introducing her to his son was getting smaller. He definitely didn\'t want his son to be around Daniella if she were to really marry someone like Jared.

"Once I have my auntie and cousin Novie. I will ask my government to pardon them for running away from their responsibility but Angelo McSalter," she paused for a moment and lowered her eyes to her hand holding a comb, "he killed my father in front of my mother so he needs to be put in the prison."

Glen understood it. He had read the news about the murder of a Royal in Galla. He read that Angelo McSalter killed his now wife Mary McSalter brother in front of his wife after the man refused to give his blessing to Mary and Angelo.

"Don\'t worry. Ken has a way to find people. He hates Jared so we can be sure that he will find them in no time and give them to you," Evan said to comfort Althea.

Althea smiled at him and then nodded, "I am sorry about Daniella-" the rest of her words died down upon seeing Evan\'s sharp eyes.

"Don\'t mention her name again."

Althea nodded and turned around. As she left the room, her lips formed a smile discreetly.
