Can He Trust Her?
Rollo turned, wondering who had knocked, he looked at Cassie as if asking who could be at the door but then, he had taped Cassie’s mouth. Whoever is at the door could be any of Ragnar Marshall’s gaurd.
He was able to infiltrate the security system gaurding Ragnar Marshall because he had once worked with him and he understood the system better. He walked up to the door and spoke, “who is it?”
The person at the other end of the door was however quiet.
“Who is it?” He shouted again, his hand on the knob of the door. He assumed that whoever was there had probably left so just to confirm, he twisted the knob of the door and made the door gave way, to his surprise, the person was still at the door and this person wasn’t any of Ragnar Marshall’s gaurd, it was Brigitta.
“What are you doing here, Rollo?” Brigitta asked, she knew of course that Rollo wasn’t in good terms with Ragnar Marshall so if he suddenly is in Ragnar Marshall’s room then he’s up to no good.
He wanted to knock Brigitta down cause he was worried Brigitta could let out a scream or call for help but he chose not to. “Brigitta, I’m just here for revenge, I hope you won’t stop me?”
“Of course I’ll stop you. Ragnar Marshall has saved me many times, how can I watch you hurt him?” Brigitta asked.
“If you will be standing in my way then you can’t blame me for what I may do to you,” Rollo said.
Brigitta smirked, “is that a threat? Do your worst but I won’t let you hurt Ragnar.”
He threw a sudden kick to her face but she was well trained so she easily guided it and sent a kick straight to his groin. He wasn’t expecting such response at all. He removed the knife from where he kept it and lunched it towards her but she guided it. As he kept on lunching different attacks, she kept guiding it while swiftly eye-searching for any weapon she could use.
This time, they were already away from the room and was now at the balcony, fighting to the death.
Rollo suddenly stopped, “wow! I’m impressed at your skill. You have learnt so fast.”
“Rollo, just leave this place and you may stay alive.” Brigitta warned, panting heavily.
“Why should I continue to live when the murderer of my father is alive,” he then suddenly threw the knife in his hand to her, although she tried to gaurd it, it still hit her by the shoulder.
She groaned in pain, she removed the knife from her shoulder and although blood was oozing from it, she chose not to focus on the pain. She now had a upper hand with this knife in her hand.
She charged at him but he guided her attacks easily and eventually sent her a kick to her stomach, she couldn’t help but fall and roll on the floor. She sprawled and spat out blood from her mouth. She was tired and extremely exhausted. What was she even expecting? Rollo used to be one of the best fighters of Ragnar Marshall, she will be dreaming to think she can take him out.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Rollo walked to her and grabbed her by the chin, “I can easily kill you now.”
Brigitta was now feeling the pain of the knife that had hit her.
“I’ll have to tie you like I do to Cassie and make you watch how I’ll kill Ragnar,” he said. About to pull her up, a head was suddenly seen rolling on the floor.
Brigitta was shocked at what suddenly happened in less than one second. It was when the headless body before her fell to the floor that she understood what had happened.
Ragnar Marshall had appeared behind Rollo and beheaded him with his sword.
She stood up in pain and said out loud, “Mr. Ragnar… Thank God you are alive. He’s trying to kill you.” She was still holding her bleeding shoulder.
Ragnar Marshall dropped his sword and walked quickly to her, then he carried her to his room. He immediately called the doctor to come over. But before the doctor came, he had given her first aid.
All these while, Cassie was watching. Ragnar Marshall had already removed the tape in Cassie’s mouth and released her before he walked out to meet Rollo and Brigitta when they were fighting.
When Ragnar Marshall saw that Cassie was still standing by the corner of the room, watching, he said to her, “excuse me!”
Cassie nodded and walked out. She felt greatly jealous. Seeing how Ragnar Marshall attends affectionately to Brigitta makes her so angry that she wish she could strangle Brigitta till death. It’s even unfortunate for her that her plan to rape Ragnar Marshall wasn’t successful. Well, for as long as she remains in the house, her plot must work.
Soon, the doctor walked inside Ragnar Marshall’s room. After the doctor had greeted him politely, he immediately went to administer treatment to Brigitta. At some point, he wanted to touch her left arm so he can inject her but Ragnar Marshall spoke up, “don’t even dare to touch her!”
The doctor was surprised at his reaction, “Will you help me, sir?”
Ragnar Marshall walked closer and lifted Brigitta’s arm, only then was the doctor able to inject her.
Then the doctor wrote names of drugs in some papers and said, “sir, you should get this drug for her, she would use it for three days , in the morning and the night, it will help her to heal faster.”
“Okay,” Ragnar Marshall said and watched as the doctor packed his luggage and walked out.
Brigitta saved him from death today. Is she really that loyal? Can he trust her? He was a type that had trained his mind not to trust anyone, it doesn’t matter how close the person is to him.
He waited on her until she woke. Brigitta woke around 3AM in the morning, seeing the bandage around her shoulder and noticing the fact that she felt so much relief, she sat upright and exhaled, she looked around for Ragnar Marshall and saw him seated on a chair, his eyes closed. It was difficult for someone to know if he was sleeping or not.
Then she stood and walked up to him, all of a sudden, he grabbed her throat.
