While running up all he wished for was for her to be alright. Though he wasn't sure whether those words were directed at her, he was sincerely concerned after hearing them. Before taking the turn to the topmost floor he hid behind the wall and watched.
It was indeed Luna and she was looking vulnerable upfront of the man that was talking to her. He could clearly see that she was about to cry but holding it in, her hands clenched. He knew that she was about to burst off.
Without directly interfering in her affairs he decided not to appear in front of them unless it is something dangerous.
"You Darned b*tch how dare you! Pay me the full amount unless I will sell you to the bar next door. With the body you have I am sure that you can pay my rent in no time."
Hearing this Daniel was about to jump into them and beat the life out of him. Though he was ready to do that he couldn't manage to do it in front of her.
"Make money for you?" Luna shouted. "I have the exact amount that should be paid. After all, I didn't stay here this month at all."
"You need to pay me!" He grabbed Luna by her hand and aggressively shakes her.
"Get your dirty hand off her right now!" Daniel shouted at the top of his voice. Something he had never done in his entire life.
"Who the hell do you think you are?" The man asked not letting go of Luna's hand.
"Oh me? I am her classmate. Let go of her hand right now if you don't want to die." Daniel slowly approached them as he feared that he would harm Luna with the metal pole that he had in his hand.
"You kids are just funny. If you want to take her then f**king pay me my rent!" He glared at Daniel while cursing.
Daniels's mind was on the verge of losing its control. He wanted that man dead. The new him was craving screams and blood.
He pulled out his purse and grabbed all the bills in it. It was clearly more than 2000. He threw the money at him hoping to get Luna into his hands and what he wanted happened. The moment the man counted the money on the floor. He smiled with his creepy smile.
Anyone could see how dirty and drunk he was. He moved his creepy face towards Luna and released her hand.
Daniel quickly took her behind him and turned around to take a close look at her to make sure that she was okay.
He could see the bruises on her hand which seemed to have appeared before he came here. Her arms were all red and a few places bleeding. To his relief, nothing seemed serious.
"You should have let me come with you. Daniel spoke in a completely different tone. But anyways I am glad that you are fine. Let's go to the hospital after picking your stuff up."
"Daniel look out!" Luna screamed at the top of her voice seeing the drunk landlord appearing behind Daniel with the metal rod.
"How dare you!" he turned around as he caught the rod with his hand. "Didn't I tell you that you will be dead a moment ago? You just brought it upon yourself." Daniel grabbed him by his neck and squeezes it until he could feel the man felt his body paralyzing little by little."
He threw the drunkard to a side and went back to Luna.
"let's go get your stuff." He said with a smile on his face as if nothing happened a moment ago.
They both entered the house. He was surprised after seeing how it looked. There was barely anything that could be called a bathroom or a kitchen. Her bed was a blanket that was on the floor. He felt bad after seeing this though he didn't dare to tell her that to her face.
She came back with a cross necklace that seemed to be made out of pure gold together with a framed picture. She was holding onto them tight almost about to burst into tears.
"This is all I have to take. Give me a minute to grab my clothes." She went to the corner of the room and grabbed a travelling bag.
"Daniel do you like ramen?" She suddenly asked to surprise him.
"I do like them. Why did you ask about it all of the sudden?"
"I have a lot and I feel bad to leave found like that." She opened the cupboard which was full of nothing but. Instant noodles. He could clearly see that she ate nothing but that.
She started filling up a cardboard box with the noodles.
While she was picking up the noodles he grabbed her bag for her and decided not to touch the necklace and the photo that she kept aside.
He knew that they both meant something to her and not being someone close to her, he decided not to lay his hands on them.
"Okay, I am done. She said with a smile." She was honestly happy about his appearance. If he didn't appear in front of them a moment ago she knew that something would have definitely happened to her.
"I will go and grab the picture and cross then," she said still seeing them on the table. She was surprised why he didn't lay his hands on them but she could figure out why it was.
"Luna where do you want to get your wounds treated? I can treat them myself as well but if you are not feeling well we can always go to the hospital."
"There is no need to waste money at a hospital. We can just get it treated at home." She said with a smile on her face.
"Let's go home then." He said leading the way down.
They both drove back home without stopping to get anything else. On their way back no one talked not even made an effort to talk.
"Go to my room and stay there. I will be back in a minute." I need to talk to my butler about something.
