"Humbert," I called out tensely. "You can take the money, just leave this place as soon as possible."Humbert turned sharply towards me with an angry expression. "You imbecile! I am trying to save you. You should be grateful to me!"I closed my eyes tightly. Humbert may not realize it, but I am the one who is saving him right now. When I opened my eyes again, the Russian Volder was staring at me with his black eyes."What is your name?" I asked with a neutral tone. "I'm tired of calling you 'Russian Volder' in my head," I continued with a mutter.Both of his eyes stared at me with a flash of anger. "Your mouth will really kill you one day. My name is Carleon."Ah... So this is Carleon. I looked at the long scratch on his face again. If I asked him about the scar, he would definitely get mad, right? I have to divert his attention so that Humbert Bale and his minions can leave this place. "Carleon-""Oh, Mr. Bale, unfortunately Lancaster is right," he said suddenly, his attention now fu

I tried to direct my gaze away from the four corpses lying on the floor. I searched through my pockets but couldn't find my phone anywhere.A sound of something being dragged closer made me freeze up again. I turned around to look at the corner door that was wide open. Carleon whistled as he dragged one of Humbert Bale's legs, pulling him back into the room.His whistle stopped and was replaced by a grin when he saw me again. He effortlessly gathered the fifth victim and placed him beside the others, just like in his narration earlier. Five people murdered for embezzlement of company funds."Don't you want to add a sixth victim?" I gritted my teeth as I spoke. Though I had witnessed violence and bloodshed in every kidnapping I've been through, I had never seen a dead body in my life."You're not included in that plan, Lancaster," he said, still smiling. He picked one of the corpses up and placed it on his shoulder lightly. Fresh blood still dripped from the man's neck, which Carleon l

Suddenly, the sound of a door being slammed shut overpowered my screams. Carleon immediately removed his mouth from my neck and looked up to see who had arrived."Printsessa!" he exclaimed with enthusiasm.I could still feel the burning and weakness in my body, but I tried to lift my head to see who had just entered. My neck was still wet with the blood that was flowing from my wounds caused by his fangs."Alice," he said, still beside me, "I'm sorry, but I have to kill you tonight."Alice stood near the door with Erik. She was still wearing her red dress, but this time, she roughly tied her golden hair back... as usual. The tip of her katana was peeking out from behind her back. Erik was wearing a suit, looking very neat from head to toe. Unlike Alice, who seemed to be focused solely on Carleon, Erik's gaze had been fixed on me since he arrived."Vlad sends his regards," Carleon muttered beside me. "Don't be offended. I'm only following your father's orders... ""I don't care about y
My Boss Loves Me Crossfire
Three days have passed since I "awakened" from the hellish nightmare that turned out to be the transition process I had to go through before becoming a Leech. Alice told me everything that had happened while I was unconscious.After the poison that paralyzed me attacked my respiratory system, Alice and Erik brought me to Nicholas Shaw's house. The poison in my body could not be neutralized, so the only way was either to let me die or to turn me into a Leech.Unfortunately, Nicholas could not turn me into his Leech, as every time Volder transformed a human into a Leech, they would also lose some of their power. He had already turned Erik into his Leech, so he could not turn me too. Especially since Ella had just given birth to twin babies, and her daughter, Rosie, was born as a normal human.This is where the role of the unknown man I met three days ago comes in... I thought I was the most proficient in making others angry, but it turns out there was still someone who could surpass me.
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 71
(POV - Eleanor Heather)Our lives drastically changed after Elliot and Rosie were born.Nick resigned from his job and appointed a competent new partner to manage his law firm.When I asked if he would regret giving up the firm that he had built from the ground up, Nick shrugged, seemingly unconcerned.He said he was embarking on a new job that he had never tried before… being a father.As usual, Nick was always right. Being parents to twins was an incredibly exhausting job. The different personalities of Elliot and Rosie also posed their own challenges for us.But Nick seemed to enjoy it very much. So I had no reason not to enjoy it as well.Of course, problems still arose in our lives.Several months had passed since Lana became a Leech. At first, Greg had hidden the fact that Lana was turned by Vlad’s henchman named Carleon.But eventually, Nick, who was suspicious, tried to investigate. The two of us “judged” Greg until he admitted everything.We were very surprised because at fir
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 72
In the end, we agreed to discuss the Carleon issue further after Greg told Lana, because after all, this problem also concerned her."Getting Carleon to come here is not that easy," Nick said after Greg had gone home.We had just put Elliot and Rosie to bed in their room. Lately, they had been able to sleep on the same schedule, whereas before I and Nick took turns watching the twins because of their different sleep schedules.If Rosie slept, Elliot would wake up, and vice versa. Such a schedule had almost driven us crazy.It was only this week that we finally got to sleep in the same room again. Before, one of us had to sleep in the twins' room just in case one of them woke up."Which one is easier? Kidnapping him or luring him to Manhattan?" I asked before throwing my body onto the bed and stretching my arms out to relax.Nick unbuttoned his shirt one by one while furrowing his brow."Kidnapping him is definitely more troublesome than getting him to come here."My eyes roamed over h
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 73
"Ella, what's wrong?" Lana asked as she sat next to me.My smile faded quickly as Dostov walked down from his bar stool and made his way towards us with a glass of whisky in his hand."Ella?" Lana called out to me again, but my gaze remained fixed on Dostov.What was he doing here...?Dostov stopped in front of our table and placed his whisky glass down. Lana was silent next to me, seemingly taken aback."Eleanor, it's good to see you again," he said with a friendly expression. I still felt very strange seeing his youthful face, even though this man was almost four times Nick's age."Nice...to see you too," I replied to him. It seemed like Dostov picked up on the hesitation in my voice because his smile became even deeper."Do you two know each other?" Lana whispered next to me. I forgot that Lana didn't know who Dostov was. She had never met him before."Errr...Lana, the man who just bought us wine is Dostov. And Dostov...this is my friend, Lana."Awkwardly, I introduced the two.Dos
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 74
I was surprised when Dostov suddenly mentioned Carleon's name."You already know..." I whispered with disbelief. Greg said no one knows about his agreement with Vlad and Carleon yet, even Lana still didn't know about Greg's plan to trap Carleon.Lana still had a innocent look on her face. "Do you need my help?""How did you know..." I didn't finish my sentence. We did need all the help we could get right now. If Dostov was willing to help, then there was no harm in asking, right?As if reading my mind, Dostov smiled at me.His ability to read my movements and thoughts made me slightly shiver. After all, Dostov was known as one of the most feared Volders, what was on his face and what was in his head were not always the same. Behind his innocent and young face, Dostov was the leader of the largest clan in the country.I still didn't understand why people were forcing themselves to be Elliot and Rosie's guardians."How will you help us? Will you kill Carleon?" I asked cautiously.Dostov
