Chapter 204 - THE DEAD BROTHERS



Kris strode in the corridor with his face painted with a panicked expression. It had been an hour since Steve called him, but he just arrived at the apartment building.

Kris was such a gentleman who couldn\'t just leave his lover who was covered with sweats and semen, so he decided to clean his lover\'s body first before he headed to the apartment.

His mind was clouded, but he wasn\'t stupid enough to wake Kevin up and drag him to the apartment. Although Steve\'s news was like a lightning strike to him, he would not disturb his lover\'s rest.

The tall man finally arrived at the apartment, and he was shocked when he saw the trace of blood in the area. His heart thumped loudly. Steve had not told the details to him yet, but it seemed that it wasn\'t a simple robbery.

With his slightly trembling hand, he turned the doorknob before pushing the wooden door open. There, in the living room, he could see Steve sitting on the couch with his head down. There was only the purple-haired man in the room, and the atmosphere felt so tense.

Realizing that someone was coming in, Steve immediately got up from his seat and stared at Kris with his teary eyes. From the eyes only, Kris knew that the man was having a deep pain in his heart right now.

"What happened, Steve?" Kris asked to the point.

He didn\'t ask the man on the phone earlier because he wanted to hear the explanation in person, so only now did he have the chance to voice his curiosity. And his curiosity got even bigger when he saw the blood marks in the apartment area.

On the other hand, Steve\'s body was still stiff, and his eyes were still on him with the same gloomy gaze.

"The robbers... they... they killed my brothers, Sir."

Steve was the oldest in his bodyguard team. He was 32 years old, and he had been Selena\'s bodyguard since 12 years ago. He started his career at a very young age, but he was so loyal to Selena that he finally got a position as leader of the guard team when he turned 31 a year ago.

And even though Selena had left the world, Steve and the guard team continued to work for Kris as per Selena\'s message. The guard team consisted of 8 youths of varying ages from 27 to 32, but they had been very loyal to Selena since many years ago.

Kris, who originally had an easy-going personality, had a close relationship with them all. They were his underlings, but he treated them as friends or even brothers. So, when he heard the news coming out of Steve\'s lips, he felt like his heart was torn apart by an invisible knife.

He felt like his legs were turning into pulp, and if his physic and his mentality were too weak, he probably had fallen on the floor by now.

Thankfully, his physic and his mentality were strong enough to hold him from falling on the cold floor.

"The robbers... did they kill all of our brothers?" He asked weakly as his sad gaze remained on Steve.

The news indeed broke apart his sanity, but he still tried to remain calm at the moment.

Meanwhile, Steve bit his lips as he tried to suppress his tears. "I\'m sorry, Sir."

Kris always told Steve and the other guards to stop calling him \'Sir,\' but they were so stubborn to listen to his orders. Steve always called him that, but this time, he wanted to punch the purple-haired man after hearing the young guard call him that.

"How come you are unharmed when your brothers were killed by the robbers?"

Kris had seen the blood marks on the door where his bodyguards used to guard the place, and he knew full well that the fight was intense and deadly. Yes, it was indeed deadly for killing his seven bodyguards mercilessly.

"I wasn\'t here when the robbers attacked this place, Sir. You remember that you gave me another task earlier today, right? I was outside the district earlier, but when I came back, I... I only saw my brothers\' corpses in front of the door. I... I apologize for my mistake, Sir! I shouldn\'t have left them all. I shouldn\'t let them get killed like that!"

Kris\'s head was spinning like crazy when he heard Steve\'s explanation. Could he blame Steve for the misfortune, or should he blame himself? He was the one who let Steve away today, so he was the one in the wrong, right?

Steve was indeed stronger than the rest of his guards, so he would probably be able to fight the robbers if he was here, right? Kris was angry at himself now.

"Where are our brothers\' corpses now?"

Hearing Kris\'s question, Steve dared himself to look up to his boss again. "I\'m sorry, Sir. I had to put them into trash bags to bring them down earlier. And I\'ve asked some people to bring them away. I\'ve assigned a funeral for them, and they will be buried tomorrow."

Kris closed his eyes. Those innocent men didn\'t even do anything bad in their lives, but they ended up dying like that.

"Make sure that their funerals will go well without any disturbances, Steve. They are all orphans and have no relatives, so I can\'t give compensations to their relatives. I can only try to give them a peaceful rest."

Selena hired orphans as her bodyguards a long time ago. Kris once questioned the decision, but Selena\'s answer was so simple.

["I want to be a mother figure for them, Kris."]

That sounded like bullshit, but Selena indeed treated her bodyguards as if she was treating her son. Kevin didn\'t know about that, and Kris assumed that Kevin didn\'t need to know about something like that. He probably would get jealous because his mother had shared her love with other people.

\'Kevin is not someone like that,\' he immediately corrected his thought as he shook his head.

"Did the police know about this incident?" Kris asked the guard again.

"No, Sir," Steve immediately answered. "You\'ve told me not to let a matter like this out to the police, and I\'ve tried my best to keep this matter a secret. Your apartment unit is the only unit on this floor, so no one knows about the incident."

Kris nodded understandingly. He indeed told Steve that the police didn\'t need to know if there was an incident like this, and Steve had done his job perfectly.

"Go investigate the case further until you find the culprit, and don\'t forget to clean the mess in front of the door. We\'d better be cautious even if there\'s no one living on this floor."

This time, it was Steve\'s turn to nod his head.

Kris was tired. His body was tired because he just had sex with Kevin, and his mind was tired because of the bad news. He was about to walk toward the couch to rest his body, but he realized something all of a sudden.

"You said that my small robot is missing, right?" He asked the guard again while furrowing his eyebrows. "Which robot is missing? Is it the cleaning robot? Or is it the music robot? Both of them are my favorites. Which one the robbers dared to steal?"

In this modern era, having a robot or two in the house wasn\'t a rare thing, and Kris indeed had some robots in his apartment. He bought the robots from some professors, and his favorites were the cleaning robot and the music robot.

The cleaning robot was indeed his favorite, but the music robot was Kevin\'s favorite because the robot could sing so well to give some entertainment for Kevin when they were in the apartment.

The two robots were expensive, and perhaps the robbers were targeting them for money. But, it would be a big loss for him if the robbers indeed stole them away.

"When I checked the apartment earlier, those two robots are still around, Sir."

Kris finally could breathe a sigh of relief upon hearing the answer, but then he frowned again because his previous question had not yet been answered. "If the robbers didn\'t steal the two robots, then which robot did they steal?"

Kris was curious, and he started to feel worried as well.

Seeing his boss\' worried expression, Steve looked nervous as he bit his lips once again.

"They stole your newest robot, Sir. The white robot that you brought home when you went back to this apartment with Sir Kevin at dawn some time ago."

Kris furrowed his eyebrows as he tried to recall his memory. The white robot he brought home with Kevin some time ago? Which robot was that?

Kris was puzzled, but then he came to his realization as he felt his heart pounded loudly behind his ribs.

"Did they steal AZURE?"
