Chapter 132 - Mysterious Accident

Owen immediately ran toward the parking lot to get his car. Cathy suspected Owen was running in a hurry out of fear and intimidation of Kinsey.

How could he not? The aura Kinsey was emitting right now was terrifying. It was cold, and his eyes turned sharp as if he was preparing to pounce on his prey. If Cathy didn't know him, Cathy would also have shuddered in fear and wanted to run away.

But after working as Kinsey's assistant for a few days, she got the impression... even in the tremendous rage, Kinsey would never hurt her. Cathy could not find any plausible reason why she could think that way.

As soon as Cathy's car arrived, Kinsey got into it, making Cathy unable to hold back her emotions.

"You have your own car. Can't you go home with your car?"

"Who said I'm going to my house? Of course, we're going where you're going." Kinsey replied coolly, pretending he didn't notice the girl's anger toward him.

"I want to go home!"

Kinsey smiled, hearing that his sister is no longer using formal language.

"Then let's go to Red Rosemary!" was his short response, making Cathy even more speechless.

How could one be as shameless as this man?

Cathy closed her eyes holding back her overwhelming emotions. She's never been this angry before. She often faced coercive men to get close to her. But these guys would immediately avoid her when she was sarcastic or rude. What's about Kinsey? Why did the man not let her be alone? And why couldn't she argue with or against that young man?

Meantime, Kinsey glared at the driver, who was driving and focused on the road. There was something about the driver that was bothering him. He felt that Owen was no ordinary driver. And it was proven by this driver's indifferent gesture at him. He was not at all intimidated by him and still drove casually.

Ordinary people would be scared and sweat cold every time his sharp gaze assaulted them. Not to mention, sometimes he would release his kill-intent aura to make everyone leave him alone.

Who is this Owen, really? He had to investigate and tell this matter to Benjamin and Lest.

Arriving at the house gate, Kinsey also got off after Cathy got out of the car.

"I'm not taking you home," said Cathy flatly before entering and disappearing into her house.

Kinsey smiled crookedly. He wondered if the girl would still act the same way when she found out that he was her twin brother? He was eager to tell her the truth, but now it was not the right time.

"Sir, would you like me to escort you to your house?"

Kinsey glanced at Owen. As expected, Owen wasn't afraid of him at all, still smiling casually and politely. To his surprise even more, this person even offered to drive him home?! Which crazy man would offer himself as meat to the kill-intent owner? Since earlier Kinsey had been giving him a murderous look and the young man wasn't afraid at all?

Whether the young man was extraordinarily naive or had extraordinary acting talent, Kinsey had no idea. At least for now, he didn't feel any ill will in this driver. Should he just let it be?

His mother was very sick because a spy disguised as a cook gave her poison every day. He hoped this driver was not an undercover spy to harm his sister.

Kinsey decided to turn around and walk out of the area of ​​Red Rosemary. He would immediately investigate Owen's background.

Regrettably, he couldn't find anything meaningful. Owen's criminal record was clean and had no connection with Leonard or Martin Paxton.

Even so, Kinsey couldn't trust Owen completely. The person who could endure his intimidating aura without trembling with fear was no ordinary person.

Owen, the family driver, was no ordinary civilian.

***

A few days ago, Cathy received an invitation letter for her high school reunion. Certainly, Cathy didn't want to miss it. She missed her friends, especially her basketball team. That's why she's getting ready to attend this reunion.

"Is sister Kitty coming too?" asked Anna while doing her eldest sister's hair.

"I'm afraid she wouldn't come. It would be great if she could come, though." Cathy sighed sadly, remembering she had to wait another seven months to meet her beloved friend.

"How's about Vincent? He's not visible lately."

"He's still busy," answered Cathy briefly but sounded lonely at the same time.

She had decided to wait patiently, and she chose not to overthink it... but it had been more than a month, but no news from the man.

Even when she asked Ben about Vincent, her uncle brought up another conversation. It seemed that the people around her who she thought knew Vincent tried to avoid her when it came to him. Did something happen to Vincent?

"Already done," announced Anna proudly of her handiwork. "You will be the prettiest girl at the reunion."

Cathy laughed at that. "Thank you, my dear sister. I will go first," she said while kissing her sister's cheek and looking for the twins.

After kissing her twin sister on the cheek, Cathy immediately called Owen to escort her to where the reunion was.

Cathy looked blankly at the passing street. She thought of some strange things that had happened during this month.

Somehow she always almost got hit by accident. She remembered when her head nearly been hit by a potted plant that had fallen from the fourth floor. If it weren't for Owen's quick reaction, she would have ended up in the hospital with a broken head.

Then she almost got splashed with dirty water while strolling aside. Luckily a flower seller called her at the right time, so the dirty water soaked the empty street.

Much to her horror, her leg was almost bitten by a poisonous snake in a grassy meadow. If only no one had accidentally seen the snake crawling at her feet and screaming, Cathy would not have jumped and run away from the snake. She heard from the people around her that the snake was so beautiful that they suspected that the snake had a dangerous venom.

And just yesterday, she almost got hit by a fast-moving car. At that time, she was standing at the crossing with other pedestrians. They waited for the green light to flash to cross.

But she felt a palm pushing against her back so hard that she stepped onto the highway to become an easy target for cars speeding his way.

Just as the car was about to hit her, Cathy's hand was pulled hard, and her head hit something sturdy. Apparently, what was grabbing her arm was none other than Kinsey, and the thing her head hit was the young man's broad chest.

She should have been wondering why Kinsey was there, but she was more worried about something else.

Cathy felt someone had deliberately pushed her onto the highway. And she felt like this wasn't the first time someone had pushed her, but she couldn't quite remember when it happened.

Since then, she has become more vigilant whenever she leaves the house. She also allowed Owen to follow her wherever she went. Not because Owen volunteered, but suddenly her uncle told Owen to follow her. If nothing mysterious had happened to her during the past few days, she would have refused and dismissed the driver.

Cathy did not understand why calamities always approached her as if she were a magnetic force that drew problems towards her. Whereas previously, she was fine. Is it possible...?

Cathy swallowed, afraid that her suspicions were correct. Since Kinsey's appearance, she has had some unpleasant experiences. Could it be because of that young man?

Had she made the young man angry? So Kinsey tries to avenge with... no way. Cathy tried to get rid of negative thoughts towards Kinsey. Kinsey was the person who saved her when she was nearly hit by a car. But, why was that man suddenly next to her? She was sure that at that time, she was walking alone without being accompanied by anyone. She was confident before that accident happens, Kinsey wasn't next to her.

Cathy couldn't help but be suspicious of Kinsey. She felt that the young man had ulterior motives for approaching her.

Cathy closed her eyes because she felt dizzy thinking about this. Not long after, her cellphone buzzed, indicating she had an incoming chat.

She opened it, and her eyes lit up, and her smile widened when she saw the contents of the message.

'How are you? Sorry to be able to contact you now. It's still chaotic here, and it seems I can't go home yet. I heard you were coming to the reunion? Have fun. I miss you.'

How magical. Instantly the worries about the tragedy that almost happened to her disappeared in an instant. Cathy wonders, does Vincent have a sixth sense? Why was that man able to calm her down in time when she felt like she was lost?

It doesn't matter if Vincent could read her mind or not.. What matters now, Cathy was in a great mood to the point she couldn't stop smiling during the trip.
