Chereads / The Heart Of An Assassin / Chapter 2 - Hollow

Chapter 2 - Hollow

The atmosphere in the car was quite somber. The two bodyguards sat up front, while Si Yehan and Si Xia sat at the back.

Si Yehan had just ended a video call he leaned back and shut his eyes. Si Xia on the other hand proped up his head with his hand staring out the window.

No one could tell what he was looking at or if he was even looking at anything in particular. He looked like a child who had been abandoned by the whole world.

"Your grandfather's birthday banquet is in two days, are you going to attend it? " Si Yehan's cool voice broke the silence. He spoke but still kept his eyes closed.

In his current position, he looked like a celestial being who came to the mortal world to experience what it was like to be a mortal yet you could tell he wasn't from this world because of his overpowering aura.

He had jet black hair and porcelain like skin, his jaw was sharp and defined and the mole at the corner of his eye added to his unique charm.

The way he leaned back with his eyes shut made him look peaceful and free from earthly things.

One second....

Two seconds...

Three seconds....

One minute...but there still wasn't a reply. Si Yehan didn't seem to mind.

After a few more seconds went by Si Xia just gave a nonchalant 'hmm' indicating that he'll attend.

The car finally came to a stop as they had reached their villa. The two bodyguards heaved a sigh of relief as the got out of the car and opened the back seat for the father and son duo.

Finally home.....

Both father and son just stood there and stared at the door unwilling to go in.

Home?

They had no home.....

Wherever she was,that was their home...

Without her they had no home...

The two finally walked in. There was no sound at all, not even the slightest, it was as if there wasn't even a living soul staying here.

But in reality, there were more than a dozen servants here.

Who would've thought this same villa that was filled with life two years ago would become a hollow shell.
