Let's Get Married

He sits on the edge of the bed and looks at her sleeping face. Wondering whether if it is because of over-shocked that makes her eyebrows still wrinkles and long eyelashes flickers, very insecure.

Rex feels irritated, and then turns to the balcony to smoke.

He extracts out the cigarette with his fingertips and closes the balcony door. He then takes a deep breath and spits it out slowly. But all of it doesn’t heal his emotion.

He has never believed in destiny. For him, everything only needs management and procedures, such things as destiny are too ambiguous that he never takes it seriously.

The woman, who is lying on the bed behind him, is a stranger for him last month. But now, after a month, she suddenly bursts into his world, breaks his previous imagination and gives him lots of unexpected things.

She can influence him, not only the body but also feelings.

Moreover, this influence exceeds his imagination. He fights merely because of her, even he could not believe it.

Over the phone, Bernard, who just from the surveillance room of the red club, speaks, “Boss, I’ve copied the video and Pehry had asked people to eliminate the camera of the ally.”

His voice sinks in the night, says coldly, “Save a backup and hand it to me tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

“Oh right,” Bernard replies, “Pehry asked what we should do to the men.”

The smoke sucks into his lungs and soon dissipated from his nose. His voice’s cold as if it is a small issue. “Throw them away.”

Bernard holds the phone tightly, says nothing much, “Okay, Boss.”
