Chapter 61: Take Your Own Knife
Chapter 61: Take Your Own Knife
Belle took back her hand and said that she was just burnt by hot water. Ethan did not believe her at all. He said nothing but dragged out of the lounge then went to Echo directly.
Belle was not willing to say the truth but someone else would be very frank.
Of course, this 'frank' person was Echo Xu.
" Mr. Mo, well..." Echo heard about what happened in that private room just a few minutes ago. However, she met his big boss when she just came back to his office. Meanwhile, his big boss's face was extremly gloomy and a obvious rage was on his face. Plus Belle who was hidding behind Ethan, Echo understood instantly why Ehtan was in rage.
Echo would think that Ethan was being angry for May if he did not know about the enmity between Belle and Ethan.
"Mr. Mo, the thing was like this..." Echo dared not to hide anything from Ethan. He told about how Su Yan made difficulties for Belle. His description was coherent and his metaphors were picturesque like ' Belle was hurt by broken glass and she bled that could even fill up a bowl' and ' those ruthless and pitiless people were so vexatious that nearly blow the house down' and so on.
Ethan's face was more and more taut and gloomy as he was listening.
Finally, Echo added, "Mr. Mo, Miss Yu who helped Miss Ye binded up said that Miss Ye's hands should be kept away from water." What Echo meant was that she would like to give a few days off to Belle.
"Didn't go to hospital?" Ethan thought for a short while then a dark light showed in his black eyes. Suddenly, he turned to look at the protagonist of this but he saw that Belle was hiding at the door lowering her head looking at the floor. That kind of indifferent appearance made Ethan angry.
When Echo was just going to answer that was no need, Ethan suddenly changed his tone," Don't waste money on her for hospital since she can't even serve the guests well. Work as normal and don't let me see that you have any other arrangements."
"You" was talking to Echo.
Echo showed a confusing face since she thought that her boss was going to ask her to send Belle to hospital. What made him change his mind so sudden?
When Echo was going to say something else, Belle shook her head to Echo and pointed to outside saying that she was going to work. Echo did not stop her and after Belle went away, Ethan suddenly turned to Echo ordered when he had already got to the door," Those people with that person with family name of Su are all forbidden from now."
Huh?
Ethan did not bear Echo any time to react and went to catch up Belle directly. Echo was left there and she was stunned looking at two back figures leaving.
Family name of Su... Was that talking about that woman called Yan Su?
Echo was stunned for a while then she realized what her boss meant was that if those people come to this club again just kick them out, wasn't it? Didn't he know that those people were not some hoods at all?
Was he doing this for just venting his anger or something else?
Echo refused to think about that.

Belle walked to the lift slowly. Her right foot was a little lame and she could feel great pain in her knees when she walk a little faster. She could only walk slowly a step by a step meanwhile, suffering eyes and snears from people passing by.
Finally, she could take a break when she got to the lift. After a short while, the lift arrived. She could not wait to get into the lift when the door was just opened. When she was just going to squeeze through the door, she felt that the world was spinning and her wrist was grabbed by someone pulling her weak body out of the lift. Only panic was left in Belle's mind since she lost her balance. Then her body was out of control and fell backward.
She hit a wall, a wall of a man.
She colllected herselft from panic and raised her head, a handsome manly face. Under the bright light from the lift, she could see the disgust on that face clearly.
Just like being hit by electricity, she moved away her body from him instantly but her hand was still grabbed by him tightly.
Belle's face turned white. She wanted to took her hand back badly but she failed after several times of struggling. Ethan kept a poker face and said nothing at all. He walked into the lift then pressed the button of top floor of this building.
The lift, went up slowly.
The top floor of the club was all luxury suites for vips. Decorations in those rooms were all high-end and decent. Ethan turned several corners grabbing Belle with her and finally they arrived at the end of a corridor. Belle thought that was a dead end but surprisingly, Ethan opened a wooden door and the other side...
The other side was Ethan's private home.
Belle did not expect that there was a connecter between two buildings.
Why Ethan took her to his private place? How he still dare to bring her there after she stabbed him with a knife that night?
Ethan brought her to the only sofa in the living room and let her sat down. Belle was so nervous. She even felt that she was sitting on a sofa made by needles. Ethan sat down next to her and untied the bandage binded on Belle's hands. Her hands were binded like two pig‘s feet. As bandage was untied, her hands puting on his hand became smaller and smaller. After her hands were totally untied, a pair of wounds rested feebly on his wide hand.
At that moment, Ethan suddenly noticed that her fingers were slim and long. The back of her hands were skinny and bony. The skin on her hands were so rough like a famer's hands and with those wounds... Ethan felt that his eyes were stabbed by those wounds.
He was over worried. The person who binded Belle's hands must have learnt about first-aid. He checked her hands for several times and he found that the wounds had scabbed. They wound be recovered very soon only if they were kept away from water.
Ethan binded her hands up again. Even though he was not professional, he tried his best to be gentle. After he finished, it was already half an hour later.
Belle did not say anything in that 30 minutes. She did not even move or resist. She just watched him to untie her hands then binded her hands back in silent.
However, her expression changed a little several times.
" Go to the hospital with Echo tomorrow and change a fresh dressing for the wounds. This one would lose efficacy next day." Ethan stood up and his tone was a little mitigated. After he said that, he walked
to his room.
When he got out from the room, he grabbed a quilt with him and put it on the side of the sofa. He looked down to her," Sleep here tonight!"
It was not an ask but an order.
There was no space to say anything about what he had decided.
" It's still early now. I have to go to work." She said flatly without looking at him," 10 million is an astronomical figure for me."
The expression on Ethan's face suddenly changed.
10 million! He told her before that he would let her go only if she could earn 10 million.
10 million in a month. That was what he decided.
" Since you'd like to make money, I, as your boss, shall be very happy." He said leisurely," However, I order you, stay here. You'd better to think about the concequence if you disobey me."
" Besides," He stood straight," I have threw away all knives in this place. Please take your own knife if you want to murder me next time."
After that, he did not wait for her reaction and went to his room straightly. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Belle raised her hands and looked at them. Then she showed a bitter smile. She was not that brave to take up a knife every time.
She was not that stupid to do something that had failed again.
