Chapter 154 - 154: Daniella's number

Evan got up from the bed when he noticed that space next to him was empty. He looked around, scratched a hand on his eyes to set his sight clear.
"Daniella?"
He walked toward the bathroom but she's not there, he took a sigh and put on his underwear and robe on. He laid a hand on the doorknob and opened it a bit but as he did, he heard whispering.
"What are you going to do with him?"
He recognized that voice, it was Roberts.'
"Daniella, do you really think he's one of the boys that saved you before?"
Robert's voice once again sounded.
"I don't know. I need to deal with Dr. Lee first before I can focus on Aaron Wesley."
Evan pursed his lips. He wanted to help but, Daniella refused to accept it.
"What about the eggs? Do you he used it?"
A silent came, Evan's brows furrowed in confusion.
'What eggs?' he asked in his mind.
"If he's really the boy who saved me, I hope he didn't use it, I can't – I don't want a child."
He could hear the certainty of her decision despite the hoarseness of her voice.
"It was a mistake that I gave my permission to his friend, I mean- he was unconscious and I was like half dead so…"
Evan didn't listen further to their conversation; he walked back to the bed and took off his robe.
When Daniella was done talking to Robert, she went back into the room and found Evan sitting on the edge of the bed with a serious face.
"Why don't you let me help you?" he stretched a hand and held her wrist, pulling her closer.
She sat on his lap, glooming face buried on his shoulder.
"It's fine babe, I can handle it," she moved her head to look at him, a genuine smile in her lips.
She's tired. She didn't want to think of her past anymore if she could she would prefer to forget about it but, she has friends like Robert who also lost someone that night.
She just wanted peace, be with Evan and live normally.
But she can't, as long as she has the chip in her brain, normal life is impossible for her to have.
She leaned to kiss him, and as their lips touched, Daniella frowned.
Her face, her smiling face flashed in her mind as she kissed him. She didn't know why but recently every time she kissed him; all she could see was her face, it was as if Evan only has her in his mind.
She pulled away, cupped his cheeks with her palms.
"What do you see when you kiss me?" she asked.
The corner of Evan's lips twitched in confusion, "nothing."
It was true when he kissed her, he saw nothing but darkness. Though when he gave her a surprise kiss, he was able to hear a few voices or see images.
Daniella sighed, one thing she worried about was Evan. She couldn't read him, and when they kissed, she's either seeing her face or the memories she had when she escaped the bas.e.m.e.nt.
'Why do I keep seeing those memories?' she asked herself.
She wished to know why it's impossible that Evan would have those memories given that he's not the boy that saved her that night.
She got up when she felt the phone in the pocket of her jeans vibrating, she looked at it and frowned, it was an email from Scott about Aaron Wesley past.
She threw the phone on the bed, then she got up and took a step back, "I will take shower, want to join?" seduction in her voice was paired with her eyes, she smiled at him and stretched a hand.
"I will sleep more," he said and laid back onto the bed.
When Daniella left, Evan took her phone. He looked at the address where Aaron Wesley was staying and sent it to Mark.
'Check his schedule, and follow him.'
When he put his phone down, he got up, removed the remaining clothes he had and went into the bathroom.
The fog welcomed him as soon as he opened the door, despite the blur, he was able to see Daniella's silhouette under the shower.
"I thought you want to sleep?" her voice was lively and loud, and he smiled every time
"I changed my mind."
He stood behind her, wiped the bubbles on her shoulder and rained it with kisses.
Evan's face was buried on her neck, he sniffed and it tickled her.

As the flash of the camera flickered, Scarlet beamed a seductive smile. Wearing a red long turtle neck dress with a slit on her right leg, Scarlet felt confident.
"Perfect!" the photographer praised her.
Scarlet left the studio and proceeded to the parking space in the bas.e.m.e.nt.
As she was about to open her car, a man approached her.
"Excuse me!"
Scarlet's eyes narrowed, she had seen the man, he's one of the press at the hotel she had her debut.
She gulped hard, his heart-shaped thin face and sharp nose were making him look attractive not to mention his shoulder-length black hair which was combed over has made him look like a model.
When the man stopped in front of her, she beamed a smile. She has been in the photoshoot and interview today so she's drained but when she saw him, all of her tiredness disappeared.
"Hi, my name is Aaron Wesley," the man extended a hand to her.
Scarlet bathed her eyelashes and accepted his hands carefully.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Wesley, tell me, what can I help you with?" her voice was sweet though it still has the tone of a man.
"Do you know a woman named Daniella? She has round eyes and deep dimples," he paused and scratched his hair shyly like a teenager boy, "she said she was your friend so I wanted to ask if you can give me her number."
Scarlet's smile faded, she thought he was one of her fans but it turned out that he's after Daniella.
"here," with a blunt face, she gave the number to him.
After the man disappeared, Scarlet took her phone out and dialed Daniella's number.
When the woman answered she spoke, "Daniella, a man Aaron Wesley asked for your number."
"What did he say exactly?"
"Well, first, he asked me if I know a woman named Daniella so-" she paused when Daniella suddenly laughed on the other line and ended the call abruptly.
