The Manipulated Villainess Chapter 36

"Do you have any news?" Nicole immediately called Jerome to asked him the question as soon as she entered her apartment. She can't wait to find out how things happened last night.
"Yes, Chairwoman. I asked around people from the area and they told me that the old building used to be the base of some gangsters. Even though the building was not occupied anymore, some incidents still used to happen there from time to time." Jerome Min informed from the other line.
"Then what about last night? Did they gather there?" Nicole asked while taking a seat in one of the chairs of the kitchen. Was Aston tortured by those gangsters? She finds it so dreary!
"Yes. They gather last night but no one knows the details. The people there told me that whenever they gather in that old base, violence usually happened." Jerome reported.
Now, Nicole was convinced that Aston was a victim of those gangsters. Was the man who answered the call a gangster too? But why did he helped the actor? Many questions crossed her mind but she couldn't connect any of them!
"I got it. What about Harris Ahn from Moon Orphanage? Did you confirm?" She had already asked Jerome to checked if there was someone named Harris Ahn in Moon Orphanage. Director Lee told her to meet the man personally. Sending others will not work.
"Yes. There is a man named Harris Ahn there. He currently looks after that orphanage."
"Okay. Thanks for your hard work. Have a good rest for now." Nicole ended the call and put down her phone.
Going to that Orphanage. That's her main goal for now but how? If she didn't come up with a very reasonable excuse, there's no way the devil would fall for it!

She must concentrate on this goal but... why was she more concerned about that actor for now?! Hearing about the gangsters, she had become more worried about his safety!
Should she put more guards in his room? Maybe 4 was not enough! She decided to talk about it the next day.
* * *
When Aston's was informed that the address he received match the place in the photo, he pulled out the drip on his vein without even thinking twice!
He rushed to the door with his weak body but instantly halted when he opened the door. The guards that the Chairwoman hired were revealed to his eyes and that dragged him back to reality!
He had totally forgotten that the little Chairwoman made him a captive! But for now, storming out of the hospital room and went to that address was very tempting for him. It's the thing he had waited for 17 years!
Squeezing his hair, he let out a groan when he doesn't know what to do. It's not that he can't escape, but he was reluctant to escape. If he ran out in this condition, he will worry that woman! That's the last thing he wanted to do.
As the former face and pride of the infamous Red Tiger Gang, he was more than skilled in combat. Not to mention that he had never lost a single fight! So, even with his current condition, making his way through the four guards won't be impossible though it will need a little more effort than usual.
After debating for a few minutes, he finally made his mind. He turned around and returned to his bed with a groan. Sitting on his bed with a grumpy face, he finds it hard to believe that Nicole managed to make him stuck in this room even when she was not present!

He picked up his phone which was lying next to him and make a call.
"Just ask the details for me. I cannot come for now." He bluntly said to the man on the other line.
"Are you serious?" Liam gasped from the other line. He was a childhood friend of Aston who knows everything about the actor. "This concern your sister. Are you sure that you can't make it?" He wanted to make sure that he didn't hear the wrong response!
"I need to be in this darn hospital." Aston huffed as he lay down on the bed. He understood his friend because he too finds it strange that he made such a decision!
"Didn't you say that it's not serious? How come you can't leave?" Liam took a seat on a small bench which was inside an orphanage. He finally reached the place after a long four-hour drive as it was quite far from the city.
"I'm not in a serious condition but..." Aston covered his face with his left hand and sighed. "Ah! It's complicated! I will tell you later. Please do me this favour."
"Okay. I will ask about it and visit you tomorrow. I want to know what kind of injury made you stuck there." Liam Ryu said with a light chuckle. He then ended the call and walked inside the orphanage to inquired about the long lost sister.
Aston roughly put down his phone and sat on the bed again. Does he really need to stuck here for a week? He didn't even want to imagine about it! He hated hospitals because it only reminded him of bad and haunting memories.
When he suddenly realized something, he turned his head to the right and saw the rice cakes which was still placed on the top of the drawer. He smiled and take the rice cakes but the smile fainted when he recalled the thing that happened just an hour ago.
The fiance. He talked like he had a very good relationship with Nicole and that bothered him. On top of that, it seemed like he really liked Nicole! What if the feelings become mutual?!
He tried to ignore it but it was harder than he thought, much more like impossible! How will he make that unpredictable woman his? He will have a chance only if her heart was not taken! He realized that he should hurry not to have any regrets!
