She Knew

Trust was like a house of cards. The moment a card was out of place, the entire structure would just come crumbling down.

Mr. Bai's face was troubled as he paced up and down. He trembled as he took off his glasses, wiping them off on his shirt. His nerves were fried at that point.

The scarred man looked at Mr. Bai as though he was looking at a stranger. That was his first time seeing him so distraught.

Ling Tianya was the first person that had made Mr. Bai react so negatively.

The scarred man frowned as he looked at Ling Tianya. He couldn't let her talk to Mr. Bai anymore, he'd been restless ever since he took Ling Tianya out of the box.

"Mr. Bai, why don't we send this woman away now?" The scarred man suggested gently.

Mr. Bai was deaf to the scarred man's words and continued to pace up and down muttering under his breath.

"Mr. Bai… uhm…"

"Shut up! One more word, and I'll kill you!"
