The Devil's Sweetheart

An attacker trying to commit a horrendous act of violence even when he is injured. His motive was ambiguous to Leena.

Even after knowing that, Leena did not have the evidence and he is still trying to attack, she reckoned he must fall into either one of the two categories she assumed. His track records did not show that he is a terrorist. The only conclusion she inferred, Bernard must be mentally ill.

"You still...dare to hurt me...even after I revealed my identity?" Leena asked. She was mulling over the thought of Bernard's opinion whether he was only threatening to scare her or he wanted to kill her just because she entered into his place.

"Once I become a millionaire, I will make your brother also rot in hell." His hands clenched when he thought of the incident with him.

"Are you sure that the evidence in your computer is still intact? " Leena glanced at the vase which was lying on the floor and smiled at him. "CONFIDENTIAL TRADE SECRET.docx, THE SECRET OF MY MONEY."

Bernard's face faded right after hearing the precise names from her mouth. It was the same name he has used to save the doc.u.ments. How did this woman know about it?

"What did you do to my evidence, crazy woman?" In his rage, he released the knife and also Leena's hands and went over her face to slap her cheeks. Even before the hit got landed, he was knocked by the vase brashly.

Leena slightly shifted her waist when she found the rift and that brought a spun to her entire body to get shifted and in no time, she threw Bernard onto the floor and pointed a knife right into his eyes pinning his knees. He tried to jerk a little, but it was all in vain.

"Wow...what a stunt I have put up? Was I cool, sc.u.mbag?" Asking in a threatened tone, Leena pointed straight into his eye socket.

"Please don't." Bernard closed his eyes in fear of getting hurt from the most s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e part.

"You lack concentration, sc.u.mbag. Learn from me! When you are in front of an attacker, your eyes should stay focused and your brain should work faster than your body. Now it's my turn. Where should I start." Her lips curled in disgust when she was seeing his pathetic state.

"Please spare me." He pleaded. He whimpered when Leena scr.a.p.ed his wrist which he has held harshly before.

"You know what...I am an ethical vegan. But you are an exceptional animal." Pointing to his legs, Leena sliced his calf where he brashly hit her leg earlier.

Bernard screamed in pain when his leg was stabbed hardly.

"Shhh...don't scream. Why do you have so thick skin? I have to put extra effort to drill the knife into your calves. Eat a little more vegetables instead of meat to get a flexible body." Leena softened her voice when she heard the slight footsteps which she is way familiar with. She did not want him to see her like a madwoman who is after human life.

"Please take the evidence and spare my life." He pleaded. Even though he has pointed a knife to her abdomen earlier, he didn't even give a slight scratch, afraid of Kurt Weller. But this woman mercilessly jabbed his legs and wrists.

Without any choice, he slightly raised his hand with all his might to grab Leena's throat when she pointed the knife to his bottom. Before he could catch it...

BAM

The door burst open abruptly and Devin stood there staring at the scene with a loss of words. Was I late? A tear trickled down when he watched her disheveled state. His rage thrummed through his veins when the sc.u.m was about to catch her throat.

"I look like a victim now, with the way the sc.u.mbag is about to reach my throat." Finally, Leena sighed in relief when this idiot didn't come faster to see the stunts she has pulled out earlier.
