Chapter 6 - 6. Too Late

"...I am Yang Ying Yue, the daughter of Zhi Ruo and Mei Ting." His eyes widened and takes a few steps away from her. (N-No way...she's...) He quickly takes his cell phone out and calls his boss.

"Hello?"

"B-Boss. I-It's me."

"Where is she?"

"B-Boss..about that.."

"What is it?"

"Lady Ying...(he turns around to look at Ying Yue.) is in front of me."

"...What?"

"Boss...this woman isn't Akane. She's Ying Yue, your lost fiance."

His boss's eyes widen, shocked.

"U-Um...boss?"

"Bring her to me."

"Y-Yes."

He ends the call and turns to her again. He realizes the knife is still puncture to her hand. He walks to her and said, "I'm going to take the knife out, so bear with it." She bit her lower lip and he immediately takes the knife out. HE quickly wraps her hand with a hand towel. Her ropes got loosen.

The man helps her to stand up; however, she couldn't feel a thing. Her whole body is numb. Due to a huge amount of losing blood, she feels dizzy as the room was spinning. "Miss Ying."

She faints on the floor. He shakes her but she wasn't responding. "Damn. I'm so dead." He lifts her up in his arms and takes her to the car. The second man was outside by the car. "Hui. Open the door for me."

Hui turns around and was shocked. "What are you doing?"

"No need to explain now. We need to take her to Boss or else."

Hui nods and quickly opens the door. The man carefully puts Ying Yue into the back seat. Both of the men get in the car and drive away as they left Kiri alone.

Hui asks, "Genji, what happened back there?"

Genji said, "...I'm dead meat."

"..? How so? You did nothing wrong."

"...She's not Akane."

"What?? Then who—"

"...Boss' fiance."

Hui's eyes widens. "Wha...what did you say?" Hui turns around to look at Ying Yue then back at Genji. "You positive?"

"Yes."

At first Genji thought she was pretending in order to survive; however, after she mention the names of Zhi Ruo and Mei Ting, he is 100% sure that she's the real Ying Yue.

...

Earlier, Kirishima comes home as soon as he got a phone call about Akane being missing. As soon as he arrives, his men said they have witness seeing a flare. Kirishima's eyes widens. One of the maids was kneeling in front of Kirishima as her tears slides down on her cheeks. "Young Master. My grandson, Kiri, is missing. They must've taken him too. Please find him."

Kirishima knits his brows. He turns to her and helps her to stand right back up. "I'll find him." He turns his heels and walks out of the house. His men follow him behind.

...

Kiri opens his eyes slowly and pants slowly. He flips over and slowly reaches into his pocket. He takes out a device and press down the button. His hand has gotten weak that his grip got loosen. He stares up at the ceiling. (...Master...Grandma...forgive me...I had failed. I'm sorry.)

Sura's cell vibrates. He takes his cell out and his eyes widens. "Kiri!" He looks up at his Master. He shows the signal from his cell to Kirishima. They all head to the location.

After 30 minutes, Sura rushes and yells, "Kiri!"

Kiri was taking his last breath. "...Sura..." His eyes slowly lose its strength. Sura finally enters the warehouse and he froze as soon as he sees Kiri's lifeless body. He holds his breath and clear his throat. He slowly walks to Kiri. "...K-Kiri."

The others and Kirishima enters and they were shocked. Sura takes Kiri in his arms. "Kiri...?" He shakes Kiri to wake him up; however, it was too late. Kiri has left them all. Sura's tears slides down. Kirishima clenches his hand to fist as he looks around the room. He walks towards the chair that Ying Yue was chained. He looks down and sees blood. (What the heck happened here?)
