A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 79

“You don’t need to know who I am. What you need to know is that you are dying.”

Sunny’s face changes at this, and it is the first time for her to face the threat of death.

“Well...” She smiles calmly, “Do you have the right to decide whether I live or die?”

Then she hears a click, and then something cool touches Sunny’s temple, “What do you think?”

Now, Sunny just understands that provoking an evil person is a very horrible thing.

“You put the gun down first. And we have something to talk about.”

“Well?” The person seems to enjoy the feeling of playing the game of cat and mouse very much. She does not put down the gun, but says with a leisurely grace, “Then you speak.”

“May I ask why you want to kill me?”

“You deserve it!”

Hearing this familiar word, Sunny understands that the person belongs to PY Gangster.

Then, she ventures a name, “Bella?”

The person hesitates for a second, then pulls the gun closer, “You really want to die.”

Seeing this reaction, Sunny finally finds out who this person is.

“Bella, you do that because of Kevin?”

The person seems unwilling to mention this man, and so she changes the subject with a sneer.

“Sunny, how about giving you a chance to live?”

“Oh, can you be so kind?” Sunny knows that the person is Bella. And because they have a bad impression on each other, they are not speaking in a good tone.

“Well, of course, if I give up killing you, you can still live.”

Sunny looks at the dark figure in front of her, “Just like Kevin?” Sunny says suddenly.

The figure pauses, “Kevin, do you care so much about him?”

Sunny shrugs, “He’s my boyfriend, so of course, I care about him.”

Seeing that Sunny recognizes it so directly, the person pauses for a moment and then says, “You are so direct.”

“Not like you.”

The conversation seems to be going nowhere, and the person takes the gun off Sunny’s temple.

“If you don’t understand that, then just stay here.”

Sunny keeps silent. The person seems not ask her to understand anything.

“You want me to leave Kevin?”

“Will you?”

“No.”

“Well, that’s it.”

“Bella,” Sunny says directly, “have you ever thought that if you can just tell Kevin that you really care about him, he may change his mind?”

“Sunny, I don’t need your meddling.”

This indirectly confirms that this person is, indeed, Bella.

Sunny breathes a sigh of relief when she finds out who the person is, and then her next question catches her off guard, “Are you the head of PY Gangster?”

Bella chuckles, “Sunny, you think highly of me.”

“Bella, when Kevin thinks you are dead, he even goes to meet women who look like you. He wants to have a child that looks like you. Do you know that?”

“Stop talking. What I am doing now is not for Kevin. And he’s just a pawn in my game.”

“Is it?” Sunny sighs, “But didn’t you send those letters just to get me away from him? Are you giving up now?”

“Sunny, don’t talk about the past, let’s talk about the present. Isn’t he with you?”

Sunny suddenly find herself unable to argue with this, and Bella finds that if Sunny is unable to speak, Sunny will get more and more agitated.

“I promise he doesn’t know what I do when I come back, but his heart has changed, and his attention has shifted from me to you.”

Bella takes a deep breath, “So, Sunny, stop being insincere. It makes me sick.”

“Fine, I will shut up. But you may visit your own grave when you are free, and you will see how much he cares for you.”

“By the way, do you know that he has a split personality after you die?”

Bella knows that Sunny is just messing with her mind and trying to convince herself to let her go.

Of course, she knows that. But she could not help listening, so at last she covers her ears, but she does not know why she does not go away.

“Bella, you should admit that you see me as your enemy only because of Kevin, and that the PY Gangster is also your pawn.”

“Sunny, shut up, you are talking nonsense here, you don’t understand anything at all.”

“Bella, I think I know enough already. Why do you suddenly show up at Kevin’s house in the western suburbs the other day? Because you are coming from the place where Zola is kidnapped. And you think that you are seen by me or Kevin, so now you’re rushing to make sure whether we recognize you or not.”

“In addition, Greg died of poisoning in front of me, colorless and tasteless, and the police is still indifferent.”

“I’m not going to let anybody find out the truth. You just stay here.”

Then Bella walks away, and the darkness falls once more.

Now Sunny feels helpless, but she believes that Kevin will find her. But before that, it seems like a good idea to challenge Bella, who may tell her more about the truth.

On the other side, Kevin is checking the monitor of the hospital parking lot.

“Stop, this is it,” Kevin points out that it is a man in police uniform who carries Sunny away, “Barney, do you think this is one of yours?”

Barney takes a closer look, then turns to the man behind him and asks, “Have you seen Monty?”

Those people look at each other, and then someone says, “It seems we haven’t seen him since we’ve done the investigation.”

And Kevin finds that it is Monty that tricks Sunny.

Thinking of that, Kevin turns to ask Barney, “Do you handle the case upstairs in your hospital as an accident?”

Barney says, “No, although it looks like an accident, the doctor in the hospital also confirmed that the victim died of poisoning. We definitely can’t end the case so hastily.”

It seems that Sunny has been targeted long ago.

“Is it possible to trace the car to where it goes?”

After seeing the car, Kevin thinks it is probably a gang crime. Maybe the policeman and the reporter are working together.

Barney nods, “But we need to get the surveillance data from the hospital and go back to the police station. If you wants, you can come with us.”

“Thank you,” he says, “then I go with you.”

Barney nods. After going to the hospital, they go back to the police station.

“Elijah,” Barney says after returning to the police station, “You check the surveillance around the hospital and find it out. I suspect these two cases may be premeditated accomplices.”

Then Elijah goes to check the surveillance. And Barney asks Kevin to sit down first, because he is also a witness of the case.

“Mr. Quinn, can you give me a detailed account of the death of the Greg?”

Kevin recalls, then organizes the language, “He come to us this morning, and it seems that he has something to say about the PY Gangster, the former PY Gangster.”

Hearing that, Barney is a little confused, “Isn’t there only PY Gangster? Why is there a former one?”

Kevin shrugs, “I don’t know. He just told me that.”

“You keep going.”

“Then Greg suddenly grabbed his heart and looked miserable. We thought it was a heart attack, but the doctor said it was poisoning.”

“So it was you who went to ask the doctor?”

“Yes.”

Barney ponders for a moment, “Mr. Quinn, I know it’s not very nice to say that but it is possible that these things have something to do with your girlfriend?”

“No way,” Kevin says firmly, “She was too weak to stand up, let alone kill a grown man.”

Barney agrees him. Although he has a little doubt in his mind, he still does not say anything. After all, it is the policeman in the police uniform that is clearly shown in the monitor.

“Ok, roughly we all understand. Do you know where Greg’s house is?”

Kevin nods, “I know. I just visited yesterday.”

“Has anyone else been there besides you?”

Kevin shakes his head, “I don’t know.” Or he wouldn’t have been poisoned.

“We will judge the case based on the results of forensic tests. Thank you for your cooperation.” After shaking hands with Kevin, Barney goes out of the reception room with him.

Right now Elijah comes back, “Captain, I come back.”

Barney nods and goes to check the surveillance with Kevin.

It turns out to be pretty much the same as Kevin’s guess. The policeman has Sunny on his back after he confuses her somehow.

The driver, as soon as he hears the noise, is shot dead by the policeman.

Then the officer hesitates, taking off his uniform to reveal the white vest underneath, as if he has lost his high profile.

Then he turns in a corner and meets the man who takes photos Sunny and Kevin.

They make a sign to each other, “They try to confirm whether they are friends.”

####Chapter 80 Sorry

Kevin nods, then the cop gets in the boy’s car and they disappear at the end of the stakeout.

“Everybody, all efforts are made to search for Monty. We must not spare this humiliation of the police force.”

And those policemen are very angry. Their honor has been ruined by this man

“Well, Mr. Quinn, now you can go back and wait for the news. We’ll let you know when we track down the last address of this car.”

Kevin nods. He pulls out his cell phone, calls someone, and keeps talking.

“Mr. Quinn,” Barney says sternly, “We must punish Monty severely, so you may rest assured.”

Kevin says yes and then leaves.

On the other hand, Ellison hangs up and looks serious.

Kelly asks curiously, “What’s wrong?”

Ellison says laconically, pointing his fingers at the table, “Sunny is missing.”

Kelly says, “What do you say? You mean that Sunny is missing.”

“Yes, Your sister in law.”

...

“I’ve told her yesterday to be more careful. How could she be missing so quick...”

“It looks like someone can’t wait.”

“Ellison, you have to save her...” Kelly grabs Ellison’s arm and begs.

And Ellison, seems to be used to the current state. He hugs Kelly and then nods.

“Don’t worry, I’ll get her back.” And his younger brother, who has never been willing to ask for help, pleads with him this time. There is no reason for him to let it go.

Kelly leans into his arms, nods, and closes her eyes

Kevin goes back to gather all his partners together and teaches them one by one.

“Our purpose is to get Miss Ellen out, so we have to cooperate with anyone, and if the police get the news and ask us to do something, we have to cooperate with them."

Kevin knows these people. In their opinions, everything is bullshit, except for his orders, so he says it over and over again until everyone nods.

“Good, that’s it. Go back and wait for the police’s news, understand?"

"Yes!"

That night, he returned to the house in the western suburbs. Just two days ago, Sunny made sex with him in the bed and he understood her heart here, but now...

Kevin shakes his head, forces himself to calm down, and begins running through the clue.

They kidnap Zola at the beginning, and ask Zola to tell Sunny to be careful. But they are tracking down the clue about PY Gangster at that time.

So does someone want them to check it out, or doesn’t someone want them to check it out?

Kevin thinks for a long time before he realizes that there should be two groups of people. One group wants them to go on and find out the reason why PY Gangster breaks up, but the other group wants to cover up the truth.

But does Bella belong to which group?

He tries to control himself, but he can’t help thinking.

Kevin keeps busy with his business, and gradually, after the company goes public, other people invest in it, which helps make his company bigger and bigger.

When his career is successful, he sometimes feels a sense of emptiness and begins to wonder what he really wants.

He also looks for various types of women, but always feels like a lack of something. Sometimes he dreams of a woman with a blurred face, wakes up and looks helplessly at his wet pajama pants.

He is in a restaurant waiting for someone to talk about things, but the person who does not come on time.

Kevin has no choice but to order a cup of tea and wait.

What he doesn’t expect is that he would be Bella’s ex-boyfriend, Jonathan.

When they see each other, they are a little unnatural.

Kevin is generous and reaches out his hand, “Kevin.”

Then, Jonathan also reaches out his hand, “I am Jonathan.”|

He should have gotten straight to the point, but Kevin wants to know more about Bella.

“Do you know Bella comes back home?”

“Bella?” Jonathan asks.

Then he comes up with an affirmative answer, “You like her.”

Kevin doesn’t expect Jonathan to make such a statement. He sprays the table with a mouthful of tea.

“Sorry, I am sorry.” Kevin takes a tissue to him and Jonathan says it does not matter.

“If you like her, you should have pursued her, instead of saying anything to me.” Jonathan says.

But Kevin replies, “I don’t like her. I just care about her. She was good to me before.”

Jonathan smiles with indifference, “It’s ok. Because we break up.”

Then Kevin finds that there’s a fire burning all around me, but I can’t smell it.

Kevin is a little flustered, but he takes a look at Jonathan in front of him and notices that he’s still calm.

“Hurry up, or we won’t be able to get out.” Jonathan looks at Kevin thoughtfully, nods and is about to stand up. But at his moment, a beam falls off and hits between them.

Kevin looks up and finds that this restaurant is all made of mahogany. If it starts a fire, it’ll burn into a piece.

Vaguely, Kevin sees Bella, who is looking anxiously at him and trying to pick him up or get out.

“Bella, I like you...”Kevin thinks that he can not survive so he decides to express his love to her.

But Kevin does not find Bella’s complicated look as he utters these words.

She says in spoken English, “I’m sorry.”

Kevin is a little confused as Bella drags him outside. Then she looks down and thinks for a moment, as if she has made up her mind. she turns to Kevin and gives him a big, bright smile, “I am sorry. I can only return for your love in the next life.”

Before Kevin can figure out what she is going to do, Bella runs into the restaurant crazily, and the surrounding firefighters can’t stop her.

Kevin, on the other hand, can only watch Bella emerging into the flames, whose back is devoured by flames.

“No,”

Jonathan nods, “I’m sorry, but I use some dirty tricks to bring you here.”

Then, Kevin thinks that he is clearly at home to recall the past, how now in a strange environment.

“Do you have a nightmare?” Jonathan says as he passes Kevin a glass of water.

Kevin looks at the glass of water and hesitates.

“Take it easy, it’s not poisonous”

Jonathan seldom seems to make a joke.

“Well,” Kevin says suddenly after a sip, “I am dreaming about what happened before.”

Jonathan’s expression is not clear in the dark, “It’s been so long since the past.”

“It can’t be. As long as Bella comes back alive, this thing will always be uncovered again.”

Jonathan can’t refute him, so he just nods and says, “That’s right.”

“So, do you want to hear a story now? My version.”

Kevin skeptically looks at him, “Why all of a sudden tell me a story?”

“Maybe I feel sorry for Sunny.”

When Jonathan mentions Sunny, Kevin is still a little slow to react, but he soon understands, “Well.”

“Well, my version of the story might be a little different from yours.”

Kevin nods, “Tell me.”

“Bella and I met on a beach in America for reasons that are a little tricky. I mistake her for someone else.”

“I thought Bella was one of my friend. Anyone would be thrilled to meet someone in abroad. It was only after I greeted her that I realized I had mistaken her for someone else.”

“I was a little embarrassed, so I invited her to dinner, but she didn’t refuse. It was our first meeting.”

“As I got to know her better, I realized how wrong I had been to think she was pure.”

“Well, I break up with her because we have different ideas, but it isn’t quite true. She does anything to get what she wants, and I’m sure you know that. But I only find out afterwards, including our meeting at the seaside, that she has arranged it beforehand.”

Jonathan tells him too much and Kevin keeps silent.

Jonathan looks at him and then continues, “I am shocked when I learn something. And I asked her if she was using me all the time. She did not answer me, but I know her. If she doesn’t want to explain, it means that those things are true.”
