My Perfect Nightmare 》

chapter 22

"That was a hard one" Charles commented

Arthit turned back to him, Charles enjoyed watching the furious expression on his face until it turned into a relaxed one ever so swiftly, which soon turned into a faint smile

"Why would you smile?" Charles asked confused

"At your foolishness Mr Charles" arthit chuckled humorlessly

Charle's eyebrows furrowed in confusion, he stole a quick glance at knot and was surprised to see him pretty relaxed as well

"Knot, show him the gun you were going to kill him with" arthit demanded

Nodding knot passed the gun to Charles, who with extremely puzzled expressions opened it up to find it empty, it wasn't loaded

"What are you both even doing? Is this a joke?" Charles asked, as he threw the gun on the floor

Arthit dramatically shut his eyes as if scared of the loud noise before he walked closer to the other, standing just centimeters away from him

"Do you not think that I have a reason of being the most powerful Mafia? Why would I let just anyone enter my house and do anything they wish?" Arthit asked in a low voice

"Oh you did let it happen, the doctor is in my hold, my me.." Charles's voice trailed off at the scene in front of him

Kongpob had just licked off the blood as if it was just some tomato ketchup, which it indeed was, while the men who stood beside him, now moved behind, with their hands folded behind their back and eyes fixed on the floor obediently

"The ketchup tasted delicious!" Kongpob commented, grinning

"Where are my men? What's this..." Charles's words were cut yet again

"Here, your men" knot replied, as he moved aside

A bunch of men walked towards them with another bunch of men walking in the middle, their weapons not in their hands anymore, as they walked with their head hung low

Charles eyes widened at the realisation, all along, it wasn't any of his men with him inside the mansion, arthit, knot and kongpob were acting all along and nothing had happened

"Kong, you can go back inside, the scenarios which are about to happen aren't going to be pleasing" arthit ordered

Nodding kongpob immediately rushed to his room, making sure to lock the door behind him once he reached inside

"Now, let's see who gets whose life, shall we?" Arthit asked as he sat back on the couch, with his left leg over his right one

Charles stared at him with an eyebrow raised, curious about his next step until arthit let out a dramatic sigh

"Now due to my unfortunate fate, I wouldn't be able to receive the honour of killing you" arthit informed, pointing at his wounded leg

Charles turned to look at knot whose expression seemed different than his usual a blank face, a slight smirk

"But knot would do the honour, you know, he isn't any different from me" arthit replied

"You can't, killing me will only put you into problems" Charles warned

"Oh it surely will" arthit replied, putting on a worried expression

Charles took a deep breath, maybe he was winning over until he heard arthit snap his fingers as two men, who looked like sweepers walked in

"What are they here for?" Charles asked

"To solve the problem that will occur, you meant the mess your blood would make, didn't you? They will be cleaning that well" arthit replied shrugging his shoulders

Charles shivered in anger as he marched towards arthit only to be pushed back by knot

"Just get rid of him already, I can't bear to see his face any longer" arthit demanded, looking away

Nodding, knot grabbed Charles by his collar, as the two sweepers walked behind, following them towards the basement

"You cannot just kill me like I'm an animal!" Charles yelled before he disappeared

"As if you are any better" arthit mumbled to himself

Caressing his temple, he realised how stressful all of it was, his life, well, his life has always been this stressful but what about Kongpob?

With all these thoughts, suddenly guilt crept in arthit's mind and made itself feel at home in there, was arthit making Kongpob's life harder? Was he hard to love? Would he only put kongpob in danger even in the future? Would Kongpob be safe with him?

"Would he ever love me this way?" Arthit whispered

I purple you 💜
