CH 122

“We have the top management right now… Take it out later when someone wants to take your place from you. Only you should know this location.”

Inside the closet, there was a box that looked rough but hard. The lock was easily opened, but once opened, it could not be locked again.

“Click, press the switch to open it, and take out the envelope inside.”

What does it say?

Russell didn’t explain the content to Dana either. Dana looked around at the envelope and tilted her head. Then suddenly, she paused because she thought she could hear a sound outside.

I’ll watch it later. Let’s get out of here.

Dana put the envelope deep in her arms and closed the closet door. She hung the frame in place, hid it, and approached the door to go outside. Then the sound was heard more clearly.

It wasn’t Dana’s mistake, it was barely heard because it was covered with velvet, but only Dana could tell.

In the past, Dana looked forward to Rian’s visit, so she noticed his very small sign.

No, here…

Dana took a step back, faltering over the doorknob she was holding. She looked around to see if there was a place to hide, but there was nothing suitable nearby.

Squeak!

While creaking and opening the wooden door, a million thoughts ran through Dana’s mind. Should she push him out, pretend to be a worker working at the merchant group, or just lie that she came in without knowing it?

But the moment she saw his face, all of it flew away, and all that was left was betrayal and anger. It went beyond fear.

“Oh my god! Who are you?”

Rian couldn’t recognize anyone at a glance in the dark room. Wearing black up and down, he thought it was the assassin who tried to kill him on the last mountain path.

“Don’t move there! I don’t know how you came all the way here. I will never die from you! If you lay even a finger on me, the guards will immediately…”

Rian fumbled his hand and looked for something to be a weapon, but there was nothing. Dana found it somehow funny to see that.

“I guess you’ve sinned a lot, Rian Felice. Seeing as you are so afraid.”

“Wa, what nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by sin? Do you have proof?”

Rian knew his opponent was a woman from her voice, but he did not easily loosen his guard. This was because the assassin he saw in the mountains was also a woman.

However, on second thought, it was a voice he heard a lot. Only then did Rian look at the person in front several times up and down.

“Who are you…?”

Rian opened the door behind him a little. The sunlight permeated through the open door and shone down her neck and the silhouette of her face was revealed.

“No way, Dana?”

“…”

As soon as Rian confirmed that it was Dana, he changed his attitude rapidly. The fear disappeared, and a unique grin settled on the edge of his mouth.

“What’s wrong with the future Grand Duchess? As expected, Dana, you remembered everything, I almost fell for it.”

Rian slowly approached Dana, leaving the door open. Dana made a hateful look and stared straight into his eyes.

“I heard the news that you disappeared. But I didn’t know I’d see you here. What happened? Did you come to see me?”

“I’m going to see you only in front of the judge or your execution.”

“My execution! No, Dana. That’s why you can’t do it.”

Rian burst into a shady smile and came closer. Dana stepped back reflexively. Rian gradually drove Dana to one side, and eventually, her back touched the wall.

“We already met like this. It reminds me of something since I’m in this position. Dana, what about you?”

“…If you hurt me, Grand Duke Tertius won’t let you go.”

“Ah, of course. But it’s about when the Grand Duke will find out, right?”

Rian lightly put his hand on Dana’s shoulder and stroked her. As soon he touched Dana with his hand, she slapped it off with the other hand as if shaking off a bug.

But he didn’t care and kept touching Dana’s body. His lips were glossy from his tongue licking them.

“There’s no way that the Grand Duke will just watch you go around like this, Dana. You’re acting in secret, right?”

“I’m not.”

“Dana, you’re not good at lying. You were good at pretending you didn’t remember… Your voice is shaking.”

Rian deliberately brought his lower body to Dana and ate her mouth. Dana felt his erection as well.

“Stop…”

“Dana, Dana. Don’t worry… I’m not going to kill you so easily this time.”

His touch against the back of her neck gave her goosebumps.

“Let go of me! Rian! You’re just like before… Whew!”

Rian quickly closed Dana’s shouting mouth with his palm. He clenched her neck with the other hand, and then he let go a little.

“Dana. I’m sorry I betrayed you. I regret trying to kill you. So come back now and I’ll keep you by my side and treat you well forever. Huh?”

His voice was filled with shady lust.

“Uh…Uh…Uh!”

“Grand Duke… You won’t see him again. I’ll hide you in a place where no one knows. I can’t believe you’re here on your own. You missed me, too, right? We’ve been together for years.”

Rian began to hover around her chest with one hand, touching Dana’s entire body while babbling. Dana shuddered with a terrible feeling as if she had dirt on her.

Oh, no. That place… You’ll get caught.

In the meantime, she was worried about the envelope in her arms. Fortunately, Rian had a quick temper and quickly reached for her lower extremity after touching her chest several times.

While trying to untangle Dana’s pants with one hand, the power that had overwhelmed her weakened. Dana didn’t miss the opportunity and pushed him away with all her might.

“Aah!”

There was a pretty loud sound of thumping. Rian fell back and hit his head on a metal cabinet.

“Ugh…”

He held his head in pain and rolled around, and Dana looked at the decorative knife that crashed into him and fell for a while without even glancing at him.

The blue eyes sank horribly.

As soon as Dana’s vision settled, she gasped, shook, and breathed briefly.

“Haah.”

Rian had not yet lost his mind. Even in that situation, he reached out and tried to grab Dana’s ankle, and Dana simply avoided his hand.

“You just… If you go, uh… Oh shit.”

Rian, who was about to say something, couldn’t talk because of the piercing pain, and Dana looked at him with cold eyes and walked out the door.

As soon as she came out, her hardened heart fluttered. Even now, Dana was hesitating. She couldn’t get her mind off the urge to stab him with the dull knife next to him.

Even now, go in…

In a fit of vengeful rage, Dana turned around, biting hard on her lower lip.

No. I have Leon. Leon.
