Chapter: 1922
While lying there helplessly, he had no choice but to ask for Davey's help. However, Davey just stepped over him indifferently.
A few moments after Davey walked out of the house, a loud explosion shook the whole place, and a ball of fire soared in the air.
That damn cigarette Davey's drunk foster father had been smoking before he fell had set the home ablaze.
Davey calmly watched as the raging fire burned the house into ashes.
He didn't even bother to save his drunkard foster father.
Davey became a homeless orphan again. He wandered around, looking for food to survive, until he accidentally met and saved the six-year-old Casey.
When Casey's parents heard about Davey's plight, they felt so sorry for him that they decided to take him with them.
Davey wasn't a bookworm, and he was not good at studying academic subjects. But he had a knack for punching. When he acquired some fighting skills, Hutton, Casey's father, hired him as Casey's bodyguard.
As Casey grew, her relationship with Davey became better. Even when she turned into a young woman, they were still inseparable.
Casey was an innocent, kind-hearted, and compassionate young woman.
She treated Davey as a protective older brother, and she did not hesitate to share with him everything.
Casey had no idea that Davey's sentiments for her had already changed.
It was Hutton who first noticed something was wrong with the way Davey looked at Casey. But he just kept it to himself. He simply transferred Davey to the company's security department without any explanation.
Davey didn't complain. He just hid his true feelings and relentlessly toiled for the company.
Then, tragedy “unexpectedly” struck. Casey's parents died in a car incident, leaving an eighteen-year-old Casey temporarily blinded due to excessive grief.
At that moment, Davey returned to Casey's side as her personal bodyguard. Aside from that, he also became her steadfast guardian and the silent protector of her family's legacy.
As years passed, the bond between Casey and Davey became deeper and stronger. Before they knew it, they had already become intimate.
But the time came when Casey discovered a sinister secret that completely changed her view of Davey. This incident had ignited a fierce rivalry between them. From being allies, they became against each other.
Davey took advantage of Casey's visual impairment to confine her in her family's mansion.
But Casey found an opportunity to escape. She fled and disappeared into the night, leaving no trace behind.
