Chapter 7

Sardat felt as if his steps were being pulled by the earth's gravity as he approached Angelina's monitor room.

As soon as he entered the room, he was amazed to see various monitors neatly lined up, filling every corner of the room.

"What do you think, is it good or not?" Angelina asked with a faint smile.

sardat looked at him with sparkling eyes. "No wonder you're always one step ahead of us."

Angelina chuckled. "Hihihi... that's part of my job." She then continued seriously. "Later tonight, Teraf will probably meet someone at Helma harbor." his fingers danced across the keyboard, indicating the location that would be the meeting point.

Sardat frowned. "Wait, you want me to move there? Don't you realize? It's dangerous, they're arms dealers and the mafia!"

Suddenly, Angelina calmed him with a kiss which made Sardat speechless. When she broke the kiss, Angelina smiled.

"Look at this." She played a video on one of the monitors, showing Sardat's reflex speed when killing Clay and his men. "I'm sure your mother can do it, Sardat," she whispered, full of confidence.

Angelina somehow smiled to herself when she saw the video, because she thought Sardat looked really cool. Meanwhile, Sardat was confused about why Angelina was showing the video.

"Why are you showing this video?" asked Sardat not understanding.

Angelina turned to Sardat while frowning. "Even though I was amazed by you when I saw this, it turns out you are still stupid!"

"Eh... your language is very rude," said Sardat irritably.

"After all, you can't see your own abilities, all your reflexes in this video are very impressive, even people who have practiced shooting for decades may not be able to do what you do, do you know what this means?" Angelina asked while looking at Sardat seriously.

Sardat innocently shook his head. Angelina really didn't know what else to say, because Sardat was too stupid.

"Why could I fall in love with a fool like you?" the woman grumbled while sighing heavily.

Sardat smiled bitterly at Angelina's words.The woman then slowly explained to Sardat that her abilities were above those of any weapons expert, in other words the man could actually fight tens or even hundreds of people at once, what's more, his reflexes were also very fast when shooting and dodging bullets. Angelina is very confident that Sardat can kill Teraf easily.

"Oh... so it's like that?" said Sardat while holding his chin and nodding his head as if he understood.

"So you understand everything?" Angelina asked to confirm.

"Hehehe... not yet," answered Sardat, laughing.

"Sardat!" Angelina was annoyed because Sardat didn't understand either.

"Hahahaha... when you get annoyed you just get prettier, I don't know what you mean, what I do know is that my abilities are above theirs, right? Sorry because I was too stupid," he said as he hugged Angelina from behind.

"It's you, you bastard...!" Angelina grumbled while smiling.

The woman then began to plan with Sardat to kill Teraf later that night. She certainly didn't want Sardat to be killed, that's why the woman designed an easy plan for Sardat.

Sardat just nodded his head, he more or less already knew about the woman's plan.

After they discussed all the plans, Sardat's face then became serious. He pulled Angelina to sit on his lap.

"Angel, I'm sure you don't just want to kill Teraf, tell me what your true intentions are?!" asked Sardat coldly, looking sharply at the woman's face.

Angelina smiled faintly, she was not afraid of Sardat at all. "It turns out you're not stupid either, the answer tonight you'll find out for yourself, what I'm really after from them."

Angelina was about to get off Sardat's lap, but the man gripped her waist tightly, so that the woman felt a little pain.

Angelina looked at Sardat carefully, it seemed that the man wasn't like before, he looked more serious and didn't seem to think of her as a woman at all, there was a murderous look on his face.

"Sardat, are you serious about killing me?" asked the woman while trying to release Sardat's grip because it was very painful.

"Tell me, what is your real plan? I'm fed up with being a slave! What's more just being bait!" Sardat rebuked in a cold voice.

"Argh! Sardat's sick, please let me go first, I'll talk to you about everything, please..." whined Angelina who really felt the pain, because Sardat's fingernails dug into the skin of her waist, so there was blood dripping there after Sardat let it go.

Angelina looked down, her hands shaking holding Sardat's hands which were bleeding from gripping her waist. She sighed, frightened.

"You... are so rude," she said hoarsely.

Sardat, with a sharp and painful look, squeezed Angelina's chin, forcing her face to meet his eyes. "Tell me, Angelina! What do you really want from me?!" he insisted.

"The Dragon Group," Angelina whispered, her voice barely audible. "The leader of the Dragon Mafia will send weapons to Teraf. There is a large transaction of prohibited goods that will take place." Sardat released his grip and pushed Angelina away.

"Tch, it turns out you really are Tyler, aren't you!?" said Sardat in a hateful tone.

"Sardat, I can explain," Angelina tried to grab Sardat's arm with teary eyes.

But Sardat didn't listen. He turned around and walked away with quick steps.

Angelina, with stumbling steps, tried to catch up with Sardat and grabbed the man's arm. "Sardat, listen to me first, please!" she cried, his voice filled with despair.

Sardat stopped and without saying anything, he turned his head, his eyes bloodshot looking at Angelina who had betrayed him.

The man was very angry, because he almost fell for his seduction. He never thought that Angelina would be willing to give up her honor to get help from him.

"I didn't expect it at all, it turns out you were playing with me! Even though I almost believed you, I was too naive to believe a cunning woman like you!" Sardat shouted angrily.

Angelina took a deep breath, her eyes dimmed for a moment, about to shed the tears she was holding back. "Sardat, I never intended to deceive you," she said in a trembling voice. She swallowed hard, continuing, "After this mission, I will tell you everything. and you think I gave up my virginity just because I pretended to love you? Really, I'm not like that."

Sardat could only stare at Angelina who was increasingly fragile in front of him, stunned, without a word. Angelina's tears almost fell, as if carrying a piece of Sardate's wounded heart.

With a gasp, Angelina then looked at Sardat with sharp eyes. "If you think I'm cunning," his voice was firm even though his body was shivering, "remember, I have given you the most valuable thing. Now, I only ask for one thing, complete this mission. after that, I promise, I will disappear from your life forever."

Sardat stood motionless, his eyes piercing Angelina's gaze, who seemed to be burning with passion to prove her love. not a word left his lips, he just stared seriously, forming a barrier of silence that almost felt suffocating.

Angelina, who had initially tried hard to appear unaffected, finally couldn't take it anymore. tears began to flow, his voice choked as his hands gripped hard at Sardat's broad chest.

"You are evil, Sardat!" she screamed in deep frustration. "Why are you so mean? Why can't you trust me?" Angelina wailed, her voice lost in sobs. She buried his face in Sardat's chest, looking for a little comfort amidst the stabbing pain.

Finally, Sardat's defensive walls collapsed, Angelina's honest touch had touched the core of his heart. he embraced her in a hug, his breath coming in deep breaths, trying to hide the tremor that was starting to grow in his chest.

"I'm sorry, Angelina..." he whispered softly, letting the warmth and regret dissolve the previously present ice.
