Chapter 28
"This is my room! I should be the one questioning you!" grumbled the girl while holding the whip in her hand. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Hold on!" Kingsley stretched his hands out as he tried to stop her. Because of that, his crotch was exposed.
"You hooligan!" The girl in a black leather suit glared at him with her round eyes before she lashed the whip at him.
After Kingsley kicked up a pillow, he grabbed it with his right hand and used it to shield his body. At the same time, he grabbed her whip with his other hand and uttered helplessly, "Young lady, you must be Paige Tanner. You have misunderstood—"
Before he could finish his sentence, the girl retracted her whip and screamed angrily, "I will kill you, you hooligan!" The next moment, the seven-section Serpent Whip lashed out at him. Kingsley was rather shocked as he tried to dodge her attacks. Even though he had only used thirty percent of his strength to grab the whip, it would have been impossible for ordinary people to do so. He never expected that a young lady with a small build would possess such powerful strength!
"Let go of my pillow!" Paige was fuming with anger when she saw that her pillow was being 'tainted' by Kingsley, and she had a strong urge to kill him to release her anger. However, she was surprised that he was unharmed by her Serpent Whip.
She then smashed the bedside lamp with the whip and scolded, "Stinky hooligan, don't hide if you are that capable!"
"Fine!" Kingsley grabbed the Serpent Whip and instantly walked around Paige with light footsteps, circling her. Before she could make sense of what was happening, she had been bound by her whip.
"Let go of me!" She struggled to escape but to no avail. It was only then that he had the chance to get a proper look at her. She seemed to be eighteen or nineteen years old, but she had a cute face with a voluminous body figure.
At this moment, Charmaine went into the room after hearing the commotion. Kingsley was seen naked with only a pink pillow between his legs and a long whip in his hand, whereas Paige's sexy body was bound tightly by it. When she saw such an amorous scene, she exclaimed, "W-What the hell are both of you doing?"
Ten minutes later, Kingsley went to the living room on the first floor after getting dressed. With an embarrassed expression, he confessed, "About that… I went to bed naked last night because I didn't have any clothes to wear. I never expected—"
"Hmph!" Paige snorted coldly before grumbling, "I think you are a pervert for sleeping naked in someone else's room!"
"Paige!" George reprimanded her in a serious tone. "He is our valued guest, so you should be respectful to him and address him by his name!" Since the Northern Draken Tag was with Kinglsey, they dared not anger him.
"Dad! How could you side with a stranger?" Paige pouted. "He bullied me just now!"
"In that case, I shall apologize to you on his behalf. Is that alright?" Gavin comforted her. Paige wasn't
angry anymore when she heard that, but she pouted before mumbling, "I'll clean my eyes after seeing such filthy things!"
Looking at her daughter's back, George shook his head and sighed. "My daughter is getting impudent these days."
"Paige has been appointed as a major of Seavale Military District at such a young age, and it is natural for her to act in such a way," Chermaine explained with a smile. Hearing that, Kingsley was surprised since such a young lady was already ranked a major in the army. He decided to find time to learn more about this outstanding girl from General Tobias of Seavale Military District.
After bidding farewell to the Tanner siblings, Kingsley drove back to the city. Along the way, his old Volkswagen Santana made creaking sounds as if it was going to fall apart. Halfway through the journey, a Land Rover that was wrapped with pink vinyl sped from the back, caught up with him, and drove alongside his car. Seeing that, he frowned before he slowed down, to which the Land Rover followed suit and both vehicles drove side by side.
"What's happening?" Kingsley turned over and looked at the car, but the windows were so dark that he couldn't see who the driver was.
He honked. The window of the car opposite his quickly wound down, and Paige was seen driving the car with her sunglasses on! She stretched her hand out and gave him the finger as she smirked. She stepped on the accelerator and sped away after laughing. Meanwhile, her car disappeared from his sight within a few seconds.
In an attempt to catch up with her, Kingsley stepped on the accelerator, but his lousy car couldn't pick up the speed. As such, he could only watch her get away.
"Major of Seavale Military District?" I'll kick your butt to pieces once I catch hold of you!"
Once he arrived home, he encountered Reene before she made her way to work. "Reene, why do you look so grim? Did something happen?" Kingsley frowned and asked.
Reene's face was pale, and there were visible dark circles beneath her bloodshot eyes. It was obvious that she didn't get much sleep the night before. She was hesitant to tell him the truth since she didn't want him to worry about her.
"Kingsley, why didn't you come home last night? Are you hungry? There's breakfast on the table, so don't forget to eat it. I'll leave for work first—" Reene answered in a relaxed manner after squeezing out a smile.
She left immediately after that. Looking at the direction where Reene had gone, a hint of worry could be seen in Kingsley's eyes. Reene must be facing some sort of issue!
Right after he arrived home, the man changed his clothes and went straight to Neveah Department Store without taking a rest. No matter what happened to Reene, he would definitely protect her!
When he stepped into the office tower of the department store, he frowned as he saw how messy the entire place was. One of the money trees, which was as tall as him, lay across the ground. The huge pot that the tree was planted in had been broken into pieces while the soil was scattered all over the ground. Everywhere he went, he could see clutters of discarded office supplies and documents scattered all around.
If not for the office staff who were running around with stacks of documents in their arms, he would
have thought that he was at a company that had been shut down. He grabbed a staff member that walked past him and asked, "What happened here?"
