DANCE WITH THE DEVIL

Part 40 -So, who is going to be first?

Kinn's POV

Porsche became paranoid. He grabbed our baby and urgently wanted to return home.

"I need to see his body!" Porsche said desperately.

"Porsche, you killed him," I tried to comfort him, but it didn't help. His entire body was drenched in sweat, and he was short of breath.

"I'm scared, what if he's somehow alive? What if he managed to escape... Kinn, please!!" Porsche cried in panic. I hugged him tightly.

"Okay, we'll go see his body," Ling was definitely dead, but what could I do when I saw Porsche breaking down like that, struggling to catch his breath?

"I'm scared, I can't go through this again... I won't survive," he said.

"Hey, I'm here, I promise... I won't let it happen again."

"You can't know that," Porsche said in a broken voice.

I knew I had shattered his trust. "I'm sorry for what happened, and I would give anything to change it, but I can't fix the past."

"Kinn, I'm not blaming you..."

"Porsche, listen to me. I promise you the present and the future. I won't let it happen again, okay?"

"Mmm."

"Can you trust me again?" I was desperate. I had to make him believe I could protect him.

"I trust you."

"Porsche, I promise I'll keep my word."

Kinn's POV

Porsche and I went downstairs to the basement. I asked one of the bodyguards to bring out Ling's decaying body. Porsche examined it. The smell didn't bother him at all. "That's him, that's Ling."

"See? He's dead. You killed him."

"So, who was that?"

"I don't know..."

"Could it be someone from his family?"

"I'll look into it, okay?" I tried to give Porsche an answer that would calm him down.

"Mmm, I trust you," he said to me.

I hugged Porsche. "Don't worry."

"You'll keep me updated, right?" He asked.

"Of course, I'll tell you everything."

"Okay, I want to know everything. If someone's planning something, we need to protect ourselves."

"Of course, let's get some rest... It's been a tiring day."

I went to the house's computer room to meet Arm.

"Do you have anything on Ling's family?"

"Mmm, I think Ling's father is tracking Porsche."

"What? Are you serious?" I was furious that he was only telling me this now.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kinn."

"Increase security for Porsche, my child, and my brothers."

"I've already done that."
