Evan lets out a heavy sigh, and then makes his way out of the inn, his steps heavy.

"Umm, is something wrong?" Rosetta asked as he stepped back outside to join her. He shook his head at her in negation.

"Come on, let's go somewhere else," he said and then led the way back towards his car parked right in front of the inn.

They soon arrived at another inn.

"Go freshen up and change. I will go get you some food."

Evan handed a shopping bag to her as he ended his words. The shopping bag contained some clothes they had stopped by at a shopping mall to get for Rosetta on their way to the inn.

Evan left the room almost immediately. When he returned she was sitting on the bed drying her hair.

Here, eat something," he said as he took out the takeout from the bag he was holding and opened it in front of her, even handing her the spoon.

Rosette smiled lightly, and then started to eat. Evan moved towards a chair a few distance away from the bed and sat on it, watching her keenly as she ate.

    "He is the murderer!"Evan turned back in confusion at these words only to see Rosetta's parents glaring at him with murderous intent. He couldn't help but furrow his eyes in confusion at them. How had they found him here? Had they been following him all along? What did they want?"What do you want?" he voiced out his thoughts and Rosette's mother charged towards him, halting when she neared him."You are a kidnapper, aren't you? You took our daughter!"

What was she going on about?"We should call the police immediately and let them know," Rosette's father chipped in.Evan smirked. Just what was wrong with these people?

    Evan's confused gaze regarded the bodyguard who had just let out the information about the culprit to the gathered crowd and then at the mayor. What could they possibly need? Why was Atalion there? His confusion heightens. Atalion turned to Evan, a smirk touching his lips when he sees the creases on Evan's face. The crowd filtered out. They spread out and gradually dispersed. The mayor turned to face Evan again, offering him a cocky grin. "Are you going to help me or not?"The mayor frowned and Evan hissed in return, scratching his jaw. The bodyguard walked up to the mayor. "Sir, you have a meeting in few minutes. You would be late."The mayor stepped closer to Evan. "Let's make this easy, shall we? Let's find somewhere for a quick discussion before I leave for my meeting."Evan frowns, wondering why the mayor would make such request from him. "Okay, then."Evan nods and the mayor turned to his bodyguard. "Prepare the car."The bodyguard nods and quickly moved to start the

    After those words left Evan's lips. Atalion stared at the young man before him for a while and then sighed heavily as the realization of what he had said to Evan dawned on him. He adjusted nervously on his chair as a way to keep himself composed before the silent man before him. Evan on noticing Atalion's gaze smirked slightly as his head titled sideways."You appear to be angry about something," He muttered and then shook his head after, "It doesn't have anything to do with me. We already got a deal, right?" He asked and Atalion's head slowly moved up and down to a indicate a nod. "If that's all...I must excuse myself. I have something important to take care of," Evan said as he got up, ready to leave. "Wait,"Evan stopped slightly and then turned towards Atalion with a slight frown on his face. "We don't have a date yet," He took out something from his pocket and placed it on the table for Evan to see what it was. Evan's brows raised up slightly as a smile curled it's way towar

Evan called out softly, as right in front of him was a pale-faced girl standing before him with a knife tightly clenched in her hands."I don't want it," She cried out, shaking her head profusely. "I don't want to be called that again!" Evan's feet froze in place as he stared at her with confusion written all over his face. He wondered what might be going on in her mind at the moment."Put the knife away Rosetta. We can talk things out," He said softly as he slowly moved towards her.
