A Danger To Be Safe In

CHAPTER 4

"BLESSED CURSE"

"I FEEL grateful for all of the things that Jennie has done for me, I can't deny the fact that I am indebted to her but hearing that word alone was enough to irritate her. The only way she wanted me to pay her back was to only work as her housekeeper, I guess I can consider myself lucky that she didn't have any other demands but I wish I can find a way to pay her back in a very...what word was it again? Hmm...ah yes! Special...I wish to pay her back in a special way."

Lisa was thinking to herself as she silently watered the plants she had just planted on the vacant flowerbeds in Jennie's huge field, Jennie's property was worth millions of dollars and she can even build her own farm if she wanted to. Though she had already struggled so much to maintain the house at its finest state so she didn't bother with anything big and built a decent house for herself, not too small and not too big.

"Jennie isn't able to spend too much time at home on the weekdays therefore, she needed someone to take care of the house for her and fortunately for me, fate had decided to intertwine our timelines when both of us were in need."

1 year ago.

"HEY! COME BACK HERE." Shouted the policeman running alongside his comrades.

Lisa was running desperately trying to evade the police. Unfortunately, a travel permit was required in Paris at the time, and being unable to have access to one would result in immediate deportation, but Lisa wasn't going to let that happen seeing how far she's already come.

"Shit, it feels like I've been running for hours now. Are European men known for having such stamina? These guys just won't let me go!" She was panicking as she ran for her life through the alleys of the city.

While on her deep reflection during the trip to Paris, she swore to herself that she'd never lay a hand on a single person no more. Knowing her capabilities, a single strike is enough to slew all of them, that's how strong Lisa is given her decade-long training.

Lisa continued running through the streets of Paris under the moonlight, rushing through narrow sidewalks, jumping on top of cars passing through the stoplights, and even throwing trash and other random objects to slow down the quick pace of the 3 policemen.

"SURRENDER NOW OR WE'LL HAVE TO USE FORCE!" Shouted the already tired man.

Luckily, she had an amount of stamina that was out of this world, running for a whole day was child's play for this inhumane mans-layer.

The pace of her heartbeat was out of this world, cold sweat dripping down her forehead and back, and the striking feeling of anxiety beginning to take over her was the sign of a feeling she has never felt in a very long time.

She was afraid, even Lisa won't deny that fact because it was the feeling creeping up her veins.

No one made her feel fear except for Yang, but the fact that this situation where 3 men are chasing her down for illegal entry of the country is making her scared was enough to prove that Lisa had gone weak the moment she let go of her naginata.

She couldn't risk holding onto it for the reason that Yang will be able to easily track her down as she found out earlier that the corporation was able to know their assassin's location via their weapon of choice.
