The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

Charles and Elle ended up eating their lunch in a Fast food Chain. Charles couldn't hide his disappointment. He lost his appetite. No one was talking between them. Elle was giving him a cold treatment.

Charles was still wondering what's wrong with eating at the restaurant even though Selena Arison was there. For the first place, she won't recognize them both. Elle noticed his unhappy expression.

"Why are you throwing a tantrum? We can just eat there some other time." Elle said to him.

Charles looked at her with disbelief. 'Am I the one who is really throwing a tantrum here? She is the one who suddenly change her mood and giving me a cold treatment a while ago. I was frightened by her scary aura.'

"Hmmp." he pretended to ignore her.

Elle suddenly kicked his leg under the table.

"Ouch." Charles glared at her while massaging his leg.

"Alright! I'll take you there next time. Promise." Elle said to console him.

Charles face brighten up upon hearing her but he paused as he realized something. Charles gave her a suspicious look. 'Why is she treating me better now? It was unusual for her to do this.'

"But first, I want you to do something for me." A light flashed on Elle's eyes as she said that to him while grinning.

'I knew it! She needs something from me. She is a profiteering devil! She will not do you a favor for free, there is always a condition.' Charles sighed.

"Deal! What is it then?" He asked her.

"I have a great plan." Elle said with her alluring but a dangerous smile.

Charles was amused by just looking at her familiar deadly smile. 'Oh no, the devil is back! and she is plotting something.'

Later on, Elle gave him the instructions. Charles was surprised hearing her 'great plan'. It was hitting two birds using one stone.

Two days after, a chaos erupted at the main office of Arison Holdings and Mining Corporation. They didn't expect that the assassin who stayed silent for a month would suddenly move and her first target was the C.E.O and the heiress of Arison Holdings and Mining Corporation, Selena Arison.

Elle was now standing in front of the 18th Floor storey building of Arison Holdings and Mining Corporation. She was wearing a short wig, an eyeglass and a cap. She disguised herself as a delivery woman. She was holding a medium size rectangular box covered with exquisite designs.

She entered the building with a bright mood. She greeted the front desk with a smile and informed her that she had something to deliver to their CEO Selena Arison. She proceeded to the 15th floor where Selena's office was located.

Selena's secretary welcomed her.

"I have special delivery for Miss Selena Arison." she said cheerfully.

The secretary was about to get the box from her hands when she stopped her.

"Sorry Ma'am, my client asked me to hand this at Miss Selena personally."

The secretary gave her a doubtful look.

"You don't believe me? Tell Miss Selena that this is from Detective Erick Lee, a thank you gift for treating him a meal last time."

The secretary call Selena through the intercom. She told her about the gift. As expected Selena allowed her to enter. Elle gave the secretary a mocking smile saying 'I told you so.'

Elle entered the office. She was greeted by a sweetest smile coming from the woman who is now standing beside her desk. A light flashed on her eyes upon seeing the box on Elle's hand. It was full of excitement and anticipation.

"Hello Miss Arison, this is a special delivery for you." Elle gave her a meaningful look.

Selena gladly accepted the box. "Thank you."

Elle was about to leave when Selena called her again. "Wait!"

Elle paused and she turned back to her.

"Here, accept this!" Selena gave her a ten thousand cash as a tip.

Elle was stunned in a moment. But she quickly recovered and she accepted the money. "Thank you Ma'am you are so generous!"

"Your welcome. This is an important package." Selena said while her face was blushing. She really thought that it was from Erick. Happiness was evident to her face.

Elle just gave her a meaningful smile before she left. After minutes had passed, a loud scream could be heard from Selena's office. Elle glanced one more time towards the direction where the sound of the screaming is coming from.

She saw the secretary came rushing inside Selena's office with a panic look on her face. A satisfied look appeared on Elle's face. She started to leave the place immediately.

Meanwhile, the assistant of James Arison was rushing to report what happened to Selena.

"Boss, something happened to Lady Selena. Catseye gave Miss Selena a death card, her signature card." Spike reported to James

James came out running from his office going to Selena.

When he arrived he saw Selena looking so pale. She was being comforted by her secretary.

"What happened? Are you hurt?" He asked her with a concern voice.

Selena stood up and hugged James as soon as she saw him. "I am okay. I am not that hurt! It was just a scratch. I was also shocked."

James was relieved when he saw that she was okay. He saw the scratch mark on her fair hand and a black cat wandering around her office. James frown.

It was her secretary who explained everything. "A delivery girl came just a while ago. She gave a package to Miss Selena. She thought it was from someone she knew but when she opened it she saw a black cat inside."

Selena also explained as soon as she calmed herself down. "I was shocked when I saw the cat. You know I have phobia to cats. So I started to scream causing the cat to be shock and it scratched me."

"There is also a card inside the box.The same card I saw beside Dad when he was killed." Selena added as she pointed the card inside the box.

Fury could be seen on James's eyes. He clenched his teeth.

"LOOK FOR THAT DELIVERY GIRL RIGHT NOW! BRING HER TO ME!" he ordered his men in raged.

James together with the Secretary and Selena went to the CCTV monitoring and control room of the building, looking for Elle.

In just a minute all the members of security and bodyguards were dispatched all over the building. Everyone inside the building was puzzled about what is happening. They already reported the incident to the police and to the special task force of XXX Crime Investigation Office. They were expected to arrive in a few minutes.

After a while, James and others spotted Elle walking leisurely inside the building. She was now riding at the elevator from the 10th Floor going down. Securities and bodyguards coordinated with each other using the walkie talkie and and handheld radio. It was James who was informing them about Elle's location. They were now rushing to the floor where Elle was spotted. Some of them were waiting at the lower floors.

Elle walked out from the elevator in the 4th floor. She walked towards the exit. This time she used the stairs instead of elevator. As if, Elle was aware that James and others were monitoring her using the CCTV camera, before she went down to the exit door, she stopped on her track. Her back was facing the CCTV camera. They couldn't see her face since she was now wearing a mask and a cap.

She suddenly picked something inside her jacket and she raised it using her right hand. She made sure that the camera could clearly see what's on her hand. James requested the man inside the control room to zoom in. They saw the card in her hand which was raised between her two fingers. It was Catseye's Death Card, her signature card. Selena and the secretary had goosebumps seeing that.

"She knows that we are watching her right now!" Selena said with her nervous voice. James was also stunned in a moment. He looked at her intently. She was really provoking him. It was a warning!

"Where are you now! Catch her already! Faster! She's in the exit at the 4th floor." James ordered his men.

"Copy Boss!". That was the last time they saw Elle in the monitor. She wanted to tell them that "I am here, Catseye is here!" before she disappeared from the monitor. A minutes had passed, James and others inside the control room were waiting for other's report. They were anticipating that the securities and guards were able to capture her.

"Boss! Negative! She was not here in the fourth floor!"

"She didn't pass here also in the third floor!" Same report came from the men on the second and first floor. They didn't see Catseye even her shadow.

"Where is she? That is impossible. There is no other way out! Unless she has super power and she became invisible! Find her!! She must still hiding there!!!"
