CHAPTER TEN

I sharpened the edges of my knife and swiftly cleaned the metal with a liquid to give it a fine shine. Testing its sharpness still left, I held its handle and sauntered toward the man who was tied up over the wooden chair, I touched the knife against his cheek and blood made its appearance over the cut I gave him out of many wounds and bruises that had become blue all over his body.

I raised the point of the knife upwards to his eyes as he began to tremble hard while shaking his head as an indication of begging to not do it. I liked the fact that he got an idea about my next move beforehand. The cloth which is circling his mouth tightly, leaving me to see his teeth covered in blood as he was cluttering in fear. He tried to beg for his life through his clothed mouth.

I pulled a chair for myself and sat in front of him, “What if I cut here?” I asked him, trailing the knife over his throat where the vein was popping out as he held his head harder against the chair to avoid getting himself harmed by the closeness of the weapon I had in my hand over his thin skin. One move and he will bleed. 

He wailed hard like an induction to not take it further than this. "Speak before this kills," I commanded and loosen the cloth off his mouth. 

“An Indian woman," He huffed out the words with a heavy blow of breath in one go, he coughed harder out of suffocation and lack of oxygen available in this chamber, whether I kill him or not, I can bet, he would die eventually due to starvation and dehydration and of course, suffocation but it isn't fun to give them easy death;  None of them are deserving of it. 

"Name. I want her name," This time my knife made contact with his skin, a little more press and he is going to have the death of a helpless chicken in a butcher shop. 

"I don’t know her name, she paid me to crash those glasses onto Ishita and put all blame on her so she can lose her job,” He answered precipitously, “Now please let me go, I promise I’ll apologize to her even Hardy fired me from the job,” 

“I know and it’s a good thing your ex-arse boss has done for the first time,” I stated, leaning forward, placing the point over his throat, “But you know what because of you Ishita got injured and tears welled up into her pretty brown eyes, what makes you think you can walk out of my house alive?” And pushed it inside until blood started to flow on the knife’s blade to my wrist and came out from the back of his neck.

If there weren’t trust issues, I would have hired someone to clean this mess up in my place but that wasn’t my concern right now. I needed to find that woman even though I know who she could be, but I want physical proof before taking any action. 

I wiped my fingers with a wet cloth and tossed it away. I headed upstairs to the basement and shut the door of the underground room which is no less than a well-furnished five-bedroom apartment, covering it with a carpet and a small wardrobe. I walked into the living room and toward my bedroom to get the keys to my car.
