章節 212: An Assassin and a Detective (Part 1)
"Li Hwa..." Aaron
"Stop!"
"I'm..." Aaron.
"Shut up!!!"
Aaron moved his hands.
"Don't you dare move!!!"
"..." Aaron.
Yong-Hyeon was standing behind Li Hwa, his hands were covering his mouth as he was trying hard to suppress his laugh.
He knows very well how scary his mom can get.
Yong-Hyeon felt a chill run up his spine as he remembers the menacing-looking eyes of his mother.
Yong-Hyeon stopped laughing.
He clasps his fingers together and closed his eyes for a silent prayer for Aaron for a few seconds before he left the living room, leaving the two of them alone.
Aaron, who was at the receiving end of Li Hwa's menacing eyes, took a deep breath to compose himself.
"I'm sorry!" He apologised sincerely, looking deep into Li Hwa's eyes,
"Why are you sorry?" Li Hwa questioned tilting her head.
She had a confused expression on her face but the anger in her eyes didn't dissipate.
Aaron sighed before replying to Li Hwa.
"Because I'm an idiot, and a selfish prick who only thinks for himself...I'm sorry, I just didn't want you to worry..."
He wheeled in front of Li Hwa before taking her hands in his, gently pressing them.
Li Hwa shook her head before giving Aaron a hurtful look.
"Of course I will worry, why wouldn't I? Ever since that day, I have become paranoid. I'm constantly worrying about you, Aaron!"
"I know, it was selfish of me to think you won't worry. I'm sorry, so let me make it up to you?" Aaron said to Li Hwa staring at her eyes.
"How are you going to make it up to me?" She asked in confusion.
Aaron gave Li Hwa a smirk before he pulled her into his embrace.
"Kyaaa!" Li Hwa was surprised by Aaron's sudden action.
Aaron gently moved Li Hwa into a comfortable position on his lap.
"Like this..."
He says as Li Hwa giggles a little with a tiny blush on her face.
"But you just had an operation, aren't you uncomfortable?" Li Hwa asked in concern.
"Nope, I'm fine. Just a little weak but its nothing. It's not like we are going to have sex? We are jus-"
Li Hwa interrupted Aaron with a kiss.
For a moment, Aaron mind went blank before he held her face tenderly in his hands and kissed her lips.
After a couple of minutes, they broke their kiss.
"That was long..." Li Hwa muttered as she stared deep into Aaron's light green eyes.
Aaron nodded.
"Li Hwa?"
"Hmm."
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay, I forgive you. But I won't forgive you the second time, so you have to tell me before you do anything stupid!"
"Hmm, okay!"
Aaron looked at Li Hwa with a gentle smile on his face.
"Hey, Li Hwa?"
"Yes?"
"I love you."
Hearing Aaron who professed his love for herself, expressing everything he feels into three words towards herself.
She responded to his feelings, throwing him all the love she feels for him. Giving light to the depth of value she has for Aaron and her longing to make Aaron a very intricate part of her life.
"I love you too, Aaron!"
Li Hwa kissed Aaron once more.

Zulkernyn has been driving for ten minutes on a straight road.
Seeing that there is a bit of traffic, he slowed down a bit.
Zulkernyn glanced at the woman beside him but when their eyes met, he averted his eyes.
A few moments later, he glanced at her again.
The young woman had her arm on the door and she had her head resting on her arm.
Her golden hair was flying in the wind, keeping pace with the speed of the car.
There was a sense of wonder to her, that Zulkernyn couldn't make sense of.
He was about to ask the girl something when the woman spoke up.
"Why did you take such a big risk for me? Your wounds were already severe. You could have died..."
Hearing the young woman, Zulkernyn fell silent.
A few moments later, he replied to her.
"My wounds look bad but it's not that bad, to be honest. I have been through worse than this, it's nothing compared to them. I wouldn't die with such injuries."
Zulkernyn was surprised to hear such a question from the woman.
There was a moment of silence before Zulkernyn answered in a calm voice, about why he saved her.
"It was a human responsibility..."
"Human responsibility? What are you, a humanitarian?" The woman rolled her eyes, hearing Zulkernyn.
"Injustice was being inflicted on someone, there's no time or place to prevent injustice. If one sees injustice, one should prevent and protest injustice out of human responsibility. What I did is nothing more than that."
"But it could have led to your death!"
"And it didn't! Death is perfectly punctual, never late and never early for both the sinner and the saint. Death is written by fate. It's something we can't stop, our creator didn't give us that power to stop our death. It will come to us when it's time. So there's no need to think about such things, what's not in your hands, you will never get it. It's better to think about life than death!"
"..."
Zulkernyn inwardly chuckled.
'Woman, I can talk about Death all day without taking any breaks. So you better stop talking about death!' He said in his mind.
"Is human responsibility specific to anyone?"
Zulkernyn sighed hearing the woman.
"Human responsibility is for everyone. But not everyone can do it all the time. Some leads with their mind and some do with their heart. In most cases, those who are endeavouring in these two areas individually are not able to fulfil their responsibilities apparently. But for those who can control the mind and their heart at the same time, the exact opposite happens."
The woman stared at Zulkernyn in awe!
"Are you a philosopher? Who are you?" She asked Zulkernyn.
"Hahaha! No, I'm not. My name is Zulkernyn, Zulkernyn Yazid Hassan." Zulkernyn introduced himself to the girl.
"I see... My name is Elizabeth, Elizabeth Montgomery. But you can call me, Elisa!" Elisa introduced herself to Zulkernyn.
Remembering something, Zulkernyn asked Elisa what has been bugging his mind.
"So why did they attacked you, Elisa?"
Elisa contemplated for a moment before deciding on telling Zulkernyn, why those people attacked her.
"I'm a detective from Stardust City. I was in charge of the missing cases in Stardust City before the chief suspended me when I accused the Police Department of colluding with Ember, a criminal organisation!"
"..." Zulkernyn.
'F*ck! What a small world!!!' Zulkernyn inwardly cursed hearing Elisa.
He now remembered why the name, Elizabeth Montgomery seemed familiar to him!
It was a report, Terry submitted to him a month ago about a female detective hell-bent on going after Ember.
