The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 255 - Error

They are known as the Crazy Bastard Squad. Panther, the top assassin in Asia, owns that squad. They found out that they have advanced technology and they are not working with the Dragon Empire or EPUA. That's what Intel said. But Klaus wasn't happy with that little information. He wanted more to know about that woman in the Squad.

"Why are they wearing fancy masks?"

"It indicates their names, sire. I heard that they disregard their real names to animal names."

"Except for that woman in a purple outfit?" He asked and looked at the video again on how the woman tried to save Victor.

"Yes,"

"What's her background? What is she to Victor? Find out about that.. Also, check about their background if they have offspring or anything! Anything important. You shouldn't leave anything out." Klaus said. Then, he turned his head to his grandson who looked worried.

"Grandpa, can we talk?" Ken asked. The old man nodded his head. He waved off the people inside the room and as Ken approached him.

"What is it?" He asked.

"Our stocks will plummet if you keep doing this," Ken said calmly.

"We earn more from this," Klaus said as he looked away.

"Are you sure, grandpa?" He asked, doubting his grandfather. "You spend a lot from this. There were also a few men that died because of this."

"Kennedy, focus on our business. I will take care of the underground." Klaus said.

"You are doing this for Wendy. This is personal. You are taking down both De Alegre and Del Carlo." Kennedy raised his voice a little as he bent down to his grandfather and said in a very low voice. "We will lose everything if you keep it that way, grandfather."

Klaus exhaled but he indeed felt anxious. Seeing the squad named Crazy Bastard Squad made him wonder why they finally showed up at the same time in one area. He wondered if they were the ones who slaughtered one of his gang. He wondered if they were the ones who slaughtered the assassins that he sent to kill Keira months ago.

"The time you spent on growing this Empire will go for nothing if you gamble everything," Kennedy said as he turned back. "If you continue spoiling Wendy, I don't think that I could hold much longer. Why not sacrifice her and let them kill her?"

"Are you out of your mind?" Klaus shouted at him. "She's your sister."

"She's half-sister," Kennedy said. "She's twisted. She's sick." He turned back to his grandfather, looking desperate, exhausted, and eager to end this war. "If I were you, she needs to get treated and will be sent away from Alessandro or Keira. The couple should be living peacefully, but you won't just let her off."

"You don't understand." Klaus sighed as he calmed himself. His chest throbbing. He needed to calm himself or else he would get sick again. "That woman is making a move."

Kennedy creased his brows.

"Woman? You mean, Karmina Rossie?" Kennedy sneered. He was young when he saw Karmina in his father's photo. She was smiling beautifully and she's rich and has a tiara. She looked like a royal and there's a name at the back. Princess Karmina Veronica Rossie. "That's her mother, right?"

"H~how do you know her name?" He asked.

"I happened to see her in my father's photos. Was my father also obsessed with her?"

Klaus looked away. But he can't deny that his son was once obsessed with Karmina Veronica Rossie. They already have a marriage contract for both but Karmina's father breaks it after a few days.

"Well, it's good that my father is dead," Kennedy said. "Good thing that I wasn't like them. You are our parents, and you shouldn't tolerate their sickness." He shook his head. "I need a break. This chaos needs to stop."

Klaus felt more depressed and anxious as he thought of Karmina that night when she cursed them.

"Old man, you killed my family, one day I would do the same. Start praying that we should never cross paths… because I won't hold back."

Those words that Karmina Veronica Rossie said, were forever imprinted in his mind. He was afraid that she would come to him and do that. That's why he was eager to end it right away before she could.

Karmina sipped on her wine as she stared outside the window of her room. Lightning struck somewhere and the weather was rumbling and then it rained hard. She smiled when she felt warm arms wrapped around her from behind.

"Are you sure that you don't want to see our daughter?" He asked.

"She's fine, right?" She asked him.

"Yes," He kissed her cheeks. "You become cold overnight. What's on your mind?"

"I just wondered how the old man was feeling right now." She said as she rubbed his arm. "I won't let him touch my daughter, again."

"They were trying to kill us first." He unwrapped his arms from her as he sat on the chair across from her.

"That's because I vowed to him that I would kill all of his bloodlines if we crossed paths." She smirked at him.

"You started becoming scary, Mina. Scary and sexy." Henry smirked at her. She laughed as she extended her hand. He held it with both of his hands and kissed it. "You kept making me fall in love with you."

She laughed and shook her head.

"You are as romantic as ever." She smiled. "Alright, I will visit our daughter and check on her. I am sure that she's fine physically but not mentally. I will have to check on a few things before visiting our daughters."

"Sure. I also have to check on the Golden Age. But we need to sleep. Looked at the weather. It's beautiful, right?" He grinned at her. "How long has it been since we last consummated our marriage, my love? You were so busy with everything here."

"That's right." She finished her wine and put the glass over the table. "We can start now."

Karmina fell asleep over her husband's chest after their lovemaking. Her heart suddenly felt rage after she had that dream again. She opened her eyes and sat up slowly. Her husband woke up and reached her long hair and caressed it.

"What's wrong?"

Karmina sighed as she reached her chest. She carefully caressed the scar from her heart transplant. If her heartfelt rage after that nightmare, it only means that her heart and mind were one.

"I'll get you water." He said as he slipped off from bed. He went to the cabinet and took the small glass bottle of water and he approached her and opened it. She took it and swigged the water to her mouth. She gulped, feeling thirsty. "Slow down." He rubbed her back. She shook her head and gave the empty bottle to him.

"I'm sorry. I just had a nightmare about that man's ugly face." She gritted her teeth. The dream was about Tyler Charles. Klaus's only son. She remembered how he tortured her emotionally and nearly raped her every day. He harassed her and seeing the crazy look from his eyes, made her shudder.

He scooped her face and kissed her forehead.

"He's dead, I won't let him touch you, even in hell or another life."

"Thank you." She pursed her lips and kissed his lips. "Thank you for saving me, my love."

"I would do it over again." He vowed.

He was once working in the Rossie family and he loved her from the start. They love each other, that's why he risks everything just to save her. He will do it over and over again if it's Karmina and their children.

"Do you want milk? You haven't slept yet."

"Milk will do." She agreed with him.

"Okay."

He went to the mini-bar and he opened the fridge to take the fresh milk. He poured it on two mugs and then put it in the microwave. He set it to heat and he turned to her and smiled.

"So, when will Jo have her labor?" he asked.

"In three months, I don't know the exact date." She said with a big smile. Karmina can't wait to see her grandchild from Johanna although they weren't blood-related. "I can't wait to see Jo's baby and also MJ's. Our family is growing, Henry."

"I know." The microwave chimes and he takes the mugs and puts them on the tray. He approached her and put the tray over the bed. "I am aware of our children and our grandchildren. That's why I put up funds for them and their safety. I already signed a contract with the Dragon Empire and EPUA."

"You~You did?" Her eyes were soft as she looked at him full of love. One thing that she never expected is his initiative in setting up something very important for the future of their family.

"I also signed up to them."

She creased her brows. 'Them' only means that he signed a very important contract with the biggest organization of assassins.

"What? H-How much did you pay?"

"The gold that I stole from the Charles Empire, I paid them with bars of gold."

She was speechless.

"You did?"

He nodded at her and caressed her hair.

"If one of them gets assassinated, they will also assassinate whoever hurt them."
