Sabina kept pacing up and down.
She heard the news from Adriana. She hadn't expected Adriana to ask her to force Chuck into submission.
Pairing this up with her grandfather's orders, Sabina was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Brooke wanted to see Chuck and Karen's heads before he died!
Sabina was torn.
On one hand was a man who truly understood her; on the other, her grandfather's dying wish.
Which should she choose?
But she had already called Chuck and asked him to meet her here.
And Chuck agreed.
Sabina had her weapons ready, and she knew exactly what she was going to do later.
She would wait until Chuck showed up as promised.
"Chuck, she asked to meet out of the blue. Do you trust her?" Black Rose asked Chuck coldly.
It was already late at night. Chuck gave Willa and Yvette a simple excuse before sneaking out.
Fortunately, Black Rose noticed that he had slipped out.
"Maybe?" Chuck sighed, not knowing why. After all, he had only known her for a short time, but he really trusted her.
He wondered why.
Perhaps it was because he really understood her.
"Really? I think she's trying to kill you. You have to trust me. Are you really going to trust her and not me?" Black Rose questioned.
The air was heavy with rage.
"I trust you too!"
"Don't go if you trust me!" Black Rose yelled angrily.
"But... She asked me out. If you had asked me out, I would have gone to see you as well." Chuck's face was calm.
"I won't!" Black Rose shook her head decisively.
Was he kidding?
Why would she ask him out?
"You won't protect me forever. Didn't you say that you'd leave as soon as I become as strong as you?"
Hearing this, Black Rose was stunned.
Was Chuck really that much weaker than Black Rose?
In terms of combat skills, Chuck felt that his skills were as good as Black Rose's. Karen's teaching had helped him reach a speed that ordinary people could not catch up to!
One had to admit that talent was important and that it could be used to surpass most people. The training was also an important factor. But in Karen's experience, there was something even more important than training and talent!
And it was mentality!
Chuck was much weaker compared to Black Rose due to the different in their mentality.
Black Rose was calm and decisive. Sometimes, Chuck couldn't even reach her level of composure and collectedness.
Black Rose kept silent for few seconds. Her voice was as cold as ice when she said, "Yes, you're right. I can leave you soon."
Suddenly, she felt a sense of loss.
She had given years of her life to protect Chuck 24/7. In the end, these were the only parting words she got?
"So, you will definitely call me and ask me out in the future," Chuck stated.
"No, I will never ask you out! And I will never call you."
Black Rose said this as if their relationship had ended, and that there was no connection between them at all. She remained resolute.
"You're so heartless, yet you still want me to call you!" She thought to herself.
Never!
She had never been the type of person to reach out to others, so why would she contact Chuck? It simply wasn't possible!
"Well... fine then!" Chuck nodded.
He thought that if Black Rose did not contact him, he would be the one to reach out to her first.
Since Black Rose had protected him for so long, Chuck never regarded her as a bodyguard. Instead, he saw her as a friend.
Therefore, Chuck would reach out to her. It was normal for friends to keep in touch.
