Chapter 53 A Question
?Inside his room, Arthur opened his study desk drawer where were several pistols he had taken from Rock and the others.
He took one, did an inspection. Tomorrow, he planned to take them with him.
There's nothing wrong with having more things he can count on. He doesn't know what he will meet on the island that is the origin of the mafia, caution is a must.
Of course, there was something he needed to do first, disguise their whereabouts so they wouldn't be discovered during the boarding check.
'Unfortunately I haven't been able to create space artifacts right now,' he thought.
Not long after, he saw Carla and Bella coming. The first one carried a plastic bag, had the brand of a well-known food store.
Arthur guessed it was bought by Bella. When she stays, she sometimes brings food.
It's just that, after entering the house, she didn't seem to stop at Carla's room, but went straight to his.
"Hey Arthur, there's something interesting at school," she said as she opened the bedroom door. She stepped inside while tying her hair up with a rubber band.
"What's the interesting thing?" asked Arthur who was already sitting on the bed.
"This is about Alex. You might not believe it, that man seems to have been beaten up, his body is covered in bruises, even walking is quite difficult," Bella answered as she stepped towards the bed and sat right beside Arthur. She crossed her legs who were only wearing shorts then looked into Arthur's face with her smile.
Arthur didn't seem bothered by her presence even though it was her first time entering this room, he only seemed interested in the news she had to say.
'Was that Rock and the others?' he wondered. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂
"And he still goes to school in that condition?" he asked.
"Who knows what he's thinking, he should be lying in the hospital," Bella replied.
Of course, he might be ordered by the God Eye Organization. The question is, why did the organization order him who was injured?
Arthur thought the organization might have discovered there was a problem with Rock and the others.
For the time being, through the spiritual birds he had infused into their bodies, he could sense their presence in this city.
They haven't left yet, but who knows how the organization will deal with them.
"By the way Arthur, what have you been doing with my sister?" Bella asked, her eyes narrowing slightly.
"You should have asked your sister already, so I don't have to answer anymore," Arthur replied. He thought it was a bit funny, that she suspected her own sister, who was actually much older than them.
Even if her suspicions were correct, other people wouldn't think that far ahead. He didn't know if she had some kind of instinct that surpassed that of ordinary humans or if she already thought of him as a man who would make every woman he interacted with fall in love with him, including her own older sister. Maybe both.
DING!
Arthur's phone beeped, indicating an incoming message.
It just happened to be lying by his side, so Bella could see it too and saw the name of the message sender.
"Amanda," she said spontaneously.
Arthur took the phone with a quick movement, opened it and found a photo.
It's a photo of the swimming pool behind Amanda's mansion. The tigers were swimming there.
However, what was more interesting about the photo were the pair of long legs at the front, those of the person taking the photo.
"What did she say?" Bella tried to peek but Arthur had already turned off the phone. Except using his finger, Bella had to enter the PIN to unlock the phone. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎
Arthur didn't mind showing her if it was just a photo of tigers bathing, but those pair of legs indicated something, that there was a special connection between them.
"Arthur." Bella ended up pouting, a sight that was quite cute since she was a woman who was used to smiling.
"Tell me, how does my sister react when she's around you?" She asked.
Arthur didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that. She was basically asking if her sister liked him.
"What if I said it was the same as you?" Arthur replied, which of course immediately made Bella's eyes tremble. Her breathing got a little quicker.
Suddenly, she shifted her body slightly so that her thigh hit his thigh. Then, she took his hand and looked at him more closely.
"If only me and my sister were the only women left in this world, who would you choose?" She asked. Of course, this includes questions stating that she likes him.
Arthur shook his head. "Girl, it's time for you to go, a woman shouldn't be in a man's room or it will lead to disaster."
"What are you talking about?" Suddenly Carla came into the room. Seeing her, Bella shifted her body again to get a little bit away from Arthur.
The latter once again felt like he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Yesterday, they kind of invited him to their room, now, they entered his room.
This is indeed a problem that always arises if you have many advantages and those around you are women.
Carla sat on Arthur's other side as she arrived at the bedside, staring at Bella briefly before looking up at him again.
"Shall we go downstairs and eat?" Arthur said, not answering Carla's question.
"I'm not hungry yet," Carla replied.
"Me too," Bella added.
"Then return to your room, comprehend the spell I give to you."
"Now is not the time, I'm still tired." Carla shook her head.
"Yeah..." Bella agreed and she lay down on the bed. Her movement caused her clothes to lift slightly, exposing her stomach.
Her smile was back and it got even wider as she looked at Arthur.
However, Arthur suddenly stood up.
"Aunt is coming," he said before taking a step out.
___
Bella and Carla looked at each other after he disappeared. The first said, "I'm sure he's quite annoyed with us here. It's just, he has very good control."
There is one thing that Arthur doesn't know at this time. At school when he wasn't around, Carla had already admitted to Bella that she had a crush on Arthur and it was pretty high.
In conclusion, the two girls regarded Arthur as a man who was always filling their heads with strange thoughts.
This basically makes them like rivals. However, their longstanding and deep friendship made no animosity appear.
In the end, they decided to just let things flow.
Like entering his room, this was part of their plan. They're not sure what the purpose of doing this is, they just want to do it, and are ready for whatever happens.
Crazy?
They didn't want to think of themselves as crazy, but being attracted to a man plus their age, which indeed was the age when desire in this area was very high made things difficult to control.
