"Get off, Levi!" Monique blushed and her heart was racing because of Levi. She quickly stepped aside. She had nearly blurted out, "So be it, I'm not afraid!"
Fortunately, she didn't say it out loud. Otherwise, she would have fallen into his trap.
Levi asked, "You really don't want to?"
Monique immediately changed the topic. "I am going next door to buy dinner. You can have a rest."
Levi murmured, "D*mned woman, you've aroused me, and then you want to run away. If this continues, I might be disabled, and the happiness for the rest of your life will be gone."
Monique turned a deaf ear to his words and hurried out to buy dinner. However, as soon as she went out, she hurried back and said, "Levi, I think I saw both of them."
"Which 'them'?" Levi asked.
Monique left a gap in the door, looked at the outside and said, "It's Ben and Mark."
There had been no reliable news coming from Ben and Mark, which made Levi and Monique waste a few days in vain. Seeing them here, Monique became extremely excited. "I'm going to follow them now."
"No, I'll go. You turn on the monitoring device and pay attention to their conversation." Levi was the first to walk out and followed them from a distance. They were very cautious, so Levi dared not get too close to them because he was afraid of being discovered.
He watched them turn into the lane on the right side. When he hurried to catch up with them, they were no longer in the alley. However, he didn't leave and just waited at the entrance of the lane instead.
After waiting for a while, Levi suddenly felt that something was wrong. He hurried back to the apartment and opened the door. The first thing he did was to look for Monique. "Monique!"
The room was only that big. When he took a glance, he didn't see Monique. So, he shouted again, "Monique!"
The room was neat and it did not seem to have any traces of a fight. Monique had remarkable fighting skills. Unless she was abducted unconsciously, the room could not be so tidy.
However, the anxious Levi could not think so much. He turned around and was about to chase after Monique. When he opened the door, he collided with Monique, who was about to enter the room.
He pulled her into the room. "Where have you been?"
"I heard the conversation between the two people, so I followed them to see what happened." Monique noticed that Levi was shaking. "What's wrong with you, Levi? What happened?"
Even when they were surrounded by enemies in the 15th floor's room, Levi could remain calm and even teased her. Something big must have happened moments ago.
Monique hugged him and comforted him, "It's okay, it's okay. No matter what happens, I'm here. Don't be afraid."
Levi tightly held Monique with his strong arms and said, "Yes, thank God you are."
Earlier on, he thought...
Monique patted his back gently. "What happened just now?"
"It's nothing." Levi soon calmed down and said seriously, "You're not allowed to act alone in the future without my acknowledgement. Do you understand?"
"I..." Monique seemed to understand what he was worried about. She hugged him even tighter and said, "Alright, I won't let you worry about me anymore."
"Did you find anything?" asked Levi.
Monique said, "I went out to look for you for a while but I couldn't find you, so I came back."
