Chapter 301 Isabella's Trial (4/5)
'Mission Successfully completed,' Lira thought after waking up and opening her eyes. 'But this guy is good. After Isabella dumps him, I can use him for pleasure.'
The first thing she saw after opening her eyes was a table since she was facing in the TV's direction.
Arkhen sat on the sofa chair beside the table, eating a sandwich and watching TV.
"Arkhen, tha-"
Lira paused as she looked at the table carefully and narrowed her eyes. The moment she recognized that tiny thing on the table, her heart turned cold.
"So you woke up," Arkhen said as he rotated his chair and looked at her with a smile.
Lira got up and faced Arkhen as sweat trickled down from her forehead.
That drop of sweat slowly slid down and fell off her eyebrows before landing on her pink nipple.
"Who sent you to me? I can already guess the answer, and I am sure of it. So, be honest."
Arkhen grinned at her before he stretched his legs and put them on her thighs. He exerted his genetically enhanced strength to pressure her thighs.
"Aa..ouch."
Lira involuntarily released a small cry of pain before answering with a stammer, "I-I… I was sent by Isabella's father."
"As expected. So the plan was to show a scene that happened here to Isabella." Arkhen's smiling face slowly turned indifferent and then cold as he continued, "This would break her heart, and she would hate me and leave me, right?"
"Yes," Lira nodded as she also calmed down. It's not like Arkhen could do anything to her.
"Well, your plan failed. What are you going to do now?"
"I don't know. Now, you'll have to excuse me," Lira asked while gritting her teeth as she exerted her strength to break free of Arkhen's legs on her thighs.
Arkhen dashed and pushed her shoulder before sitting on top of her.
"Do you think I can't do anything to you?" Arkhen asked with a grin before grabbing her nipples and pulling them up.
"Release me, or I will call the police!" Lira screamed with anger.
*slap!*
Arkhen slapped her tits and used his other hand to seal her mouth before saying with a grin, "I have recorded everything since you woke and how you agreed that it was Isabella's father who told you to do that."
Lira's eyes widened after hearing that.
"One more thing, since you know I saved many people from those pirates, you should know that those people are still grateful to me, and I have their contacts and connections."
Arkhen continued before he bent down and reached beside Lira's ears before whispering, "on top of that, the governor of this solar system also promised me a favor, so I don't really fear Isabella's father or anyone. I can destroy you and him easily."
Arkhen removed his hand from Lira's mouth and lightly slapped her cheek while smiling, "do you understand?"
"No way…" Lira muttered with a blank expression.
Arkhen got up from her and sat back down on the sofa chair before saying, "Now, you have two choices. First, you go back to being Dawson's agent, and I will destroy you and your family if you have any using my little bit of influence."
Lira got up and looked at Arkhen's cold smile as a shiver went down her spine. "What's the second choice?"
"You become my bitch. Stay by Dawson's side and tell me everything about his plan. Help me foil his plans until Isabella and I leave this planet and start our new life."
"I choose the second option!" Lira said without hesitation.
"Good. Here's your first task," Arkhen said before throwing a small cam recorder at her. "Take out proofs that you work for Dawson and record your statement about how and what you came here to do."
…
Arkhen called Isabella after recording everything and showed her the proofs and everything.
Isabella saw Arken and naked Lira on the screen, and after she digested everything they said, Isabella asked, "Did you…do her?"
Arkhen nodded honestly and replied with a wry smile, "I was not going to do anything to her despite her bold seduction. If she persisted, I would've kicked her out. But then, I detected her video recorder bot. That's why I fucked her mindless and made her fall asleep before checking everything and finding out about her plan."
"If I exposed her outright without disabling her, she could have extracted recorded data from the spiderbot and uploaded it into the cloud in a jiffy. Even if I didn't do anything, there would be more attempts from your father in various ways, so I decided to subdue her and switch her to us from your father," Arkhen finished speaking as he awaited Isabella's response.
Although this was a trial, he still decided to be honest with her instead of hiding that.
The main goal was to expose Isabella's father, Dawson.
"So now, she will work for spy and us on my father?" Isabella asked as she changed the topic after Arkhen became honest with her.
"Yes. Your father will not do anything to you. But he might want to kill me," Arkhen said with a rueful smile.
Isabella sighed as she didn't know her father would do such a thing. Using this woman and Arkhen's video to manipulate her to kill her love for Arkhen and separate them.
"Yes. If this plan failed, he said he would take more extreme methods," Lira said with a nod.
Isabella's expression turned downcast and sad. She didn't expect her father to take such drastic measures.
"Don't worry, Isabella. You focus on your expedition and leave things here to me. Once you return, we will leave. Until then, I'll survive here and plan our new life."
"Alright. You can choose a planet to your liking. We'll go there," Isabella said with a smile. "Talk to you later. I love you."
…
"How did it go?" Dawson asked Lira in his office.
"Plan failed." Lira shook her head as she continued, "He didn't make a move on me despite my many attempts."
"Hmmm…" Dawson rested his chin on his crossed hands and fell into thought. "If that failed, then we have no other choice. Arkhen must be removed before Isabella returns from her expedition."
"I won't be able to kill him without a powerful weapon. Like E-300 Laser pistol or higher," Lira said with a severe expression. "I dug deeper about him when he was in the Elite units of Mecha Warriors."
"Oh? What did you find?"
"He is an S-class genetically enhanced human. Even if the Z region in his brain was crippled, he is still physically more powerful than run-of-the-mill genetically enhanced mercenaries."
"That much powerful? The military must have treated him with special care upon seeing his capabilities and potential."
Dawson was surprised before he muttered, "If this bastard was not crippled, I would've agreed to this marriage. But he had to go and become a busybody in his last expedition, humph."
"What do we do now?" Lira asked.
"Just observe him and tell me about his situation. You don't need to do anything other than that," Dawson said as he waved his hand.
"Then how will you remove him?"
"That's outside of your field now. Your job is to give me reports of his daily whereabouts and his daily activity."
"Understood. Then I'll take my leave now," Lira said before turning around and leaving the office.
'Tsk…' Lira clicked her tongue. But she didn't forget to put one of her spiderbots in the office.
Inside the office…
Below the desk in front of Dawson, there was a tiny spider. This one just recorded the voice, and since it was under the table, Dawson couldn't see it as well.
After Lira left, Dawson called from people, and whatever he spoke was relayed to Lira.
Although she could only hear Dawson talking, it was enough to draw some conclusions.
…
Days passed as Lira told Dawson's daily talk to Arkhen via her second mobile phone.
Meanwhile, Lira also continued giving reports of Arkhen's daily activities and whereabouts to Dawson since Arkhen allowed her to do that.
Just like this, a month passed.
'Two more months before Isabella returns…' Arkhen thought while watching TV.
He video-called Isabella whenever she wasn't busy and talked to her as well.
Another fifteen days passed, but they couldn't glean anything about killing Arkhen in his talk with other people.
Arkhen heard a knock on his doors the next day, which was rare.
Since the last time Lira visited him, nobody had come to visit him.
When he opened the door, he saw a little girl looking like she was thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a rough dress and looking skinny.
"C-Can I get something to eat, brother?"
The girl asked with a bit of fear in her voice.
Arkhen raised his eyebrows in surprise. 'A girl this young, wearing that expensive looking dress, and not that malnourished looking at her skin… Did she run away from her home?'
"Did you run away from your home?"
"H-How do you know?" The girl took some steps back in shock.
Arkhen wryly smiled and said, "It's easy to guess. Come in and eat something. After that, tell me why you ran away. If I can, I'll help you."
"I ran away because I was bullied in school, and my parents never looked at me. They are always busy… Boohoo! *sobs*. "The girl started crying as she remembered.
"Alright, stop crying and come inside first," Arkhen said as he ducked out and sighed after seeing that no one was there. If someone saw it, they would misunderstand.
…
After letting the girl inside, Arkhen gave her food and called Isabella.
"Eh, who is this girl?" Isabella was surprised to see the girl eating food beside Arkhen.
"She just came here knocking on my door and calling me father," Arkhen said with a wry smile.
"What?!" Isabella was shocked.
The girl who was eating became confused as she paused eating and looked at Arkhen.
"Haha, I am just kidding. She came here knocking on the door, asking for food. She is a runaway from a rich family but has a sad life."
"I am a bit busy. Talk to you later. My team is moving in an important region of this planet," Isabella said as she was about to cut the call. But suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh yeah, check more about this girl. My father might use her in his plan to ruin you."
The moment Isabella cut off the call, Arkhen heard heavy knocking on his door.
"Open the door, Mr. Arkhen!"
It was Lira's voice, and she sounded urgent!
Arkhen was dumbfounded as he felt a bad omen, and quickly went to open the door and saw Lira with her tits heavily heaving as she was out of breath.
"We have to run! The police are coming here to catch you for the crime of abducting that little girl! Dawson prepared all of this! Moreover, the police officers coming here are Dawson's dogs. He will shoot you to kill you."
"You will be declared killed in retaliation! We have no other choice but to escape. I am also caught and can't stay, or I am dead," Lira said in one breath with a panicked expression as she grabbed Arkhen's hand.
"What happened, brother?" the little girl said as she tugged at Arkhen's t-shirt.
"What about this girl?" Arkhen asked.
"Leave her here! She was just used in Dawson's scheme. Although she arrived at your house because of Dawson's plan, she doesn't know about that. Now, let's go! We have no time to waste. I have already prepared a Stinger Bee."
"A stinger bee? That's expensive," Arkhen was surprised. Stinger Bee was a small fighter spaceship with high space-traveling speed.
"Fuck, just follow me. Quick," Lira said as she dragged Arkhen out of the house before running deeper towards downtown.
"Stay there!" Arkhen shouted to the little girl before he carried Lira on his shoulder and increased his movement speed!
"So fast!" Lira was startled at Arkhen's speed but then remembered that he was an S-class.
"Tell me the direction," Arkhen said while running.
"Han's garage. Stinger Bee is there."
"Got it," Arkhen said as he knew where that garage was downtown.
After arriving there at full speed, Arkhen piloted the spaceship and flew out of the planet with Lira.
