BXBX NOVEL Chapter 294 - Breeding Machine
The rush when Devin folds her into his arms, Leena let out a sigh of relief, knowing she is not dreaming. At the moment, without any thought, Leena vowed to drag the person behind Devin\'s accident from the darkness and make them suffer ten folds Devin suffered. \'\'Did it pain a lot when you took the bullet?\'\' Leena gently touched his chest. He has taken a fucking lead bullet used on animals, and she can imagine the torture he went through.
One second! Two seconds! Silence prevailed. If Leena hadn\'t watched Devin\'s eyelashes that are shuttering now and then, she would have assumed Devin had drifted into sleep. \'\'If you are not comfortable talking about it, I can understand_\'\'
\'\'I can\'t describe the pain.\'\' Gently, he turned to his side and caressed her cheek, looking deep into her eyes.\'\'I felt like an elephant was sitting on my chest, controlling my desperate breath. I was scared. Not because of death. I was afraid because I will not be able to see you again. I was afraid because I will not be able to see your smile anymore.\'\' His words caused Leena\'s eyes to wet with tears.
\'\'I am sorry.\'\' She muttered, pressing her lips on his. \'\'I love you, Devin. I love you.\'\'
\'\'I love you, Leena. Thanks for not giving up on us, Sweetheart.\'\' He heard his mother-in-law\'s words on that day about how much Leena suffered until the surgery. He will have to be careful to take care of her from now on. \'\'It has passed. Don\'t think about it again, alright?\'\'
\'\'Okay.\'\' Leena glanced intently into his eyes before she talked about the investigations. \'\'Have you heard of a person called Nash Rivett? He was the one I interrogated today. Despite the lack of proof, I am positive he is the one. It was a pre-plan laid by him to seduced Andrea.\'\'
\'\'I haven\'t heard of his name, but I might have known the person operating him from the shadows.\'\' Devin has a hunch of the person behind it, but he needs to interpret a lot before concluding. First thing first, he has to get out of this hospital to clear his mind. But one thing Devin was sure of. He would not leave the person who tried to separate his Sweetheart from him. Torture was the only thought lingering in his mind since he woke up. \'\'We will track back to the origins soon. I will ask to keep a tight check on the people you interrogated.\'\'
\'\'Okay.\'\' Leena nodded. She wished they could track the person soon. Her every nerve in her body wants to meet the person and kill him with her hands.
\'\'I didnot think the Art Director of WD is such a pervert.\'\' Leena started turning the gloomy atmosphere into a funny one. She was teasing Devin, and of course, he knows. \'\'Did the CEO doze off while interviewing her? Is this what the CEO does every day in the office?\'\'
Devin\'s smile held a glint of humor hearing Leena\'s taunts. Throwing a mile smirk at Leena, Devin called one of the guards and informed him to bring a piece of paper. His actions thoroughly addled Leena\'s brain when he handed her the paper.
\'\'What this?\'\' She asked, frowning as she took the paper.
\'\'Complaint form. You can write your complaints here, but let it be legible.\'\' He said with a wink. \'\'Bad handwriting should be regarded as a sign of imperfect education, right?\'\'
Leena slapped his shoulder with a sulking face. From the house rules episode which happened in Seattle, he calls her handwriting a chicken scratch. She knew her writing is so awful that sometimes, she cannot understand it either, but she will not deny the fact, especially in front of Devin. \'\'It\'s not bad handwriting. It\'s called Leena\'s font.\'\'
\'\'Yes, yes, darling. We will even try to add your handwriting as Microsoft\'s font. Happy?\'\' Devin can\'t help but laugh at Leena\'s witty comebacks.
\'\'Ah! Make it as their default Microsoft font.\'\'
Is she serious? Before Devin wanted to ask if Leena meant, he heard faint murmurs outside. Just whe he snapped at the door, he watched his mom and mother-in-law entering into the room.
\'\'Did we disturb the love birds?\'\' Evelyn and Heather laughed to scorn.
Hearing the voices, Leena instantly got up from the bed. \'\'No, we were just having a normal conversation.\'\'
\'\'Normal?\'\' Devin snapped at Leena.\'\'We did dirty talking_\'\'
Leen covered his mouth, shooting a sharp glare at Devin. She long realized Devin has no shame, and he keeps proving he is getting better in it.
Heather laughed to herself while Evelyn controlled her giggle as she placed the lunch box on the table. \'\'We will not take your time. The faster you eat, the faster we will leave you guys.\'\' Turning to her friend, Evelyn asked. \'\'Why do you say, Heather?\'\'
\'\'Of course, Eve. I don\'t want to disturb my son-in-law. After all, he promised for a basketball team.\'\' Heather suppressed her smile as she looked at Devin\'s dumbfounded expressions.
\'\'Is it!\'\' Evelyn squealed, clapping her hands in excitement. \'\'I am so happy that my son is finally stepping into action.\'\'
Leena: \'\' \'\'
Leena was fuming in anger in her thoughts. Did he promise a Basketball team? What is he thinking of me? A breeding machine? What are these two thinking of me? After hearing the secret, Leena understood her mom and mother-in-law are shameless bunches. What can she say about these two white lotuses? After all, they planned and drugged her innocent Francy.
While Devin stared at her mother-in-law, too shocked to speak because she has driven Devin to the edge. Slowly, Devin turned to Leena, and instantly, he shifted his gaze elsewhere when her eyes were blazing murderously at him.
\'\'When did you had this conversation?\'\' Leena questioned with a heightening gaze.
\'\'I_I didnot_\'\'
\'\'You can talk about it after we leave. Let\'s have lunch first.\'\' Heather interrupted them with a pressing smile.
During lunch, Devin was throwing daggers at Heather, but as usual, she feigned ignorance.. The moment Heather and Evelyn walked out of the room, Leena closed the door tight shut.
