Hellbound With You (WN)

Xavier almost choked. Alex wearing a couple shirt? Darn! This was too much!

Alex simply glanced at the men on the sofa while Abi just slightly nodded at them. They began to walk away when Abi suddenly halted. 

”Ah, wait a moment, Alex, ” she told him and she looked towards Ezekiel Qin who was now heading to his room. She ran towards him and stood before him. 

”Uhm, Mr. Qin, there ’s a letter for you, ” she said with a smile as she took a pink little envelope out of her bag. ”This is from little Betty. ” 

Abi gave the envelope to him but the man simply stared at it. 

”Why is she giving me this? ” the man asked. His usually uninterested eyes were looking at her with interest. 

”You ’re the one who paid her hospital bills, right? ” 

Ezekiel fell silent and Abi finally confirmed that it was indeed Ezekiel who was behind all the good things that happened to Betty at the hospital. It seemed that this man wasn ’t as hard as he made out. She couldn ’t confirm it but back when she left the dungeon, before she collapsed, she saw a blurry silhouette of a man sitting on the ground with a musical instrument. She tried to recognize who it was and the pieces of his physique led her to the conclusion that it was this man. Even though she never confirmed it, she believed that it was him. Since then, her impression of him started to change. It seemed that the rumors about him were wrong and that he was a good person depsite his strict and heartless aura.  

”Little Betty wrote this in the hospital and she was waiting for you to visit her but since you seemed to be very busy, I offered to deliver this to you. Please accept it, Mr. Qin, ” she added as she beamed at him before she held his hand and put the letter on his palm.

However, at that very moment, someone yanked Abi from behind. Her back hit against a broad and strong chest and she immediately knew that it was Alex. 

When she looked up at him, she was surprised to see how dark his face was as he glared at Ezekiel.

”Alex? ” she called out but then, Alex suddenly pulled her away and he nearly dragged her out of the house.
