100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Twenty Five…

~~*****~~

Cherry woke up early to prepare for her travel. She communicated with Spade. Spade asked her to meet in person today. He was very interested in Black Rose. They formed a good team. They complimented each other well when they attacked the Security System of the Syphiruz Mafia.

[ *Chatroom Conversation between Spade and Black Rose* ]

[ Spade: Let's meet at Knight Cafe at the airport. I will be waiting for you this afternoon… 1:00 pm sharp! ]

[ Black Rose: Got it. What should I bring? ]

[ Spade: Laptop, Clothes, and Passport. I will travel with you to the place where Phantomflake is being treated. ]

Cherry started packing her things. She prepared her backpack containing three sets of clothes, her travel documents, gadget, and a laptop.

She opened her drawer and saw her pistol. She wanted to bring one… but the airport authorities might find her weapon. They decided to have a public flight. She didn't want to ride an aircraft owned by the Red Dragon Mafia. She felt like she would be surrounded by enemies. One member was enough. She didn't want to travel along with other members.

Spade understood if Black Rose still had doubts about their alliance. She was just being cautious for her safety.

Unknown to Cherry, someone followed her last night. Aiden found out where she was staying. He was about to visit the Sparks Mansion to see Cherry but Butler Li informed him through their phone conversation that Cherry was on sick leave.

Aiden decided to drop by the supermarket to buy fruits for Cherry. He also bought a bouquet of flowers for her.

Aiden just arrived at the front of her apartment when Cherry stepped out of the house, carrying her backpack. Cherry was wearing her sunglasses, high-waist blue jeans, and white plain shirt matched with sneakers. She looked like she was going on a trip.

"Eh, I thought she was feeling sick?"

Aiden dialed Abigail's number. Aiden knew that the two were close. He observed it when he visited the Sparks Mansion. He also heard that it was Abigail who recommended Cherry.

"Hello, Aiden… Why did you call me?" Abigail asked him, surprised at this sudden call from Aiden.

"Miss Abi, I can't come to the mansion today for our session." Aiden kept visiting the mansion for the past few days, using the seduction lesson with Abigail as an excuse to see Cherry.

"Fine with me. I'm also not in the mood to hear your nonsense," Abigail flatly said.

Aiden pouted his lips when he heard that. Sometimes, Abigail talked like Nathan when interacting with him.

"Hmm. Not nonsense. Those are my words of wisdom… Seduction Technique!" Aiden defended himself.

Abigail just snorted and rolled her eyes skyward.

"Okay. I'm hanging up!"

"Wait, Abi!" Aiden stopped her.

"What do you want?" Abigail asked him again.

"Actually, I am here in front of Cherry's apartment. I heard from Butler Li that she was sick so I planned to visit her. But it looks like she is fine. She is about to go on a trip. Perhaps… Do you know where she is going?" Aiden simply asked her but at the same time, he shared information about Cherry's whereabouts.

Abigail's eyes widened in realization. She already had suspicions that Cherry might go to the Red Dragon Mafia's territory. They had to stop her no matter what.

"Aiden! I have something important to tell you. Listen to me…" Abigail's voice had become serious.

Aiden bobbed his head as if Abigail could see him. He got curious about what Abigail was going to say.

"Okay. I'm listening. Tell me."

"Cherry's life will be in danger. You must do something." Abigail wanted to give this task to Aiden.

"What? Is that group of syndicates still following her?" Aiden blurted out. Oops. It was too late. Cherry told him not to tell anyone about this including Abigail. But he had a slip of the tongue.

"So Cherry… was being chased by bad people?" Abigail repeated, asking for Aiden's confirmation.

"Yes, she is. It happened one time… and I saved her."

Abigail suddenly felt grateful for Aiden. She was glad to hear that Aiden saved Cherry and he helped her out.

"Aiden… this time… can  you protect her again?" Abigail asked him. Black Rose was not someone whom he could easily deal with. But she wanted to trust Aiden's capability.

"Of course. What do you want me to do?" Aiden glanced at Cherry. She was still waiting for a taxi.

"Go and follow her! Don't let her leave the city. Then tell me where your location is, and I will come to you!" Abigail wanted Aiden to buy her some time. She would stop Cherry by herself. If they had to lock her up for a week she would do it.

Sooner or later, Bam-Bam would find her body. Cherry shouldn't be there since she would help Nathan to take her body back.

"Got it, Ma'am! I will do that!" Aiden obediently replied. If this was for Cherry's safety then he was willing to do it.

"Cherry rode the taxi. I gotta go. I will just update you later." Aiden finally hung up and followed the taxi.

Abigail, on the other hand, went to her bathroom to take a bath. She had to borrow one of Nathan's cars to follow Cherry and Aiden. If she had to apply force she wouldn't hesitate. Cherry must not go to Red Dragon Mafia's headquarters.

*Twenty minutes later…*

Cherry arrived at the airport. She immediately looked for the Knight Cafe. Spade was already there, waiting for Cherry. He was wearing a blue shirt and brown cargo pants. He was sitting on the corner table while facing his laptop.

Spade already told her about his clothes, including the location of his table. The two already exchanged numbers. Cherry slowly approached him. Upon reaching his table, Cherry was taken aback to see his appearance.

Spade looked younger than she expected. And he was such a cutie… not a nerdy one. Spade also glanced at her and he was put in a daze. Just like him, he didn't expect that Black Rose was such a pretty woman.

'Damn… She is beautiful.' Spade didn't know what to say.

Cherry just extended her right hand and said, "Hello, I'm Black Rose. Nice to meet you."

Spade was about to hold her hand, but to their surprise someone grabbed her hand, interrupting the two.

"Hi, Black Rose, I'm Black Knight. Nice meeting you too!" Aiden said, smiling broadly.

Black Rose: "..."

Spade: "???"
