Genius Girl

Chapter 235 - Genius 235: The masks

When his luggage arrived, he walked closer and picked it up. As he turned to leave, he bumped into someone. The petite human fell on the ground. He looked down to see the same woman who claimed to be the Queen of Galla. Even though he had heard of the country, he never saw or met the queen or any of the royal family.

He quickly helped her to get up, not bothering to apologize or look at her face.

"Thank-"

The woman didn\'t get a chance to thank him as he left the place in a rush. He hated that she has the same smell as Daniella, that scent only fitted on her and not to anyone.

As he waited for the taxi outside of the airport, the same woman appeared again. Though this time, she was being dragged by two men in soldiers clothing. People around just stared at the scene just like him, for a person to be dragged out of the airport by soldiers, it only meant that she did something terrible.

As the taxi stopped in front of him, Evan looked at the direction where the soldier car disappeared. His eyebrows creased, the car they used was not the typical car that soldiers were usually using.

He sighed and shook his head, realizing it\'s not his business to stress over someone so he got into the backseat of the car and gave the hotel address where he\'s going to meet Ken.

Coming out of the garbage truck, Peyton glared at Daniella. They just used a garbage truck to get past the guards in the government parliament.

After jumping out of the back of the truck, Daniella and Peyton removed the plastic jumpsuit they had on.

"I need an explanation, Daniella!" Peyton held Daniella\'s arm, glaring at her like a pissed-off swan.

She woke up this morning and was dragged to the bas.e.m.e.nt of the hotel they were staying, without informing her, Daniella asked her to wear the plastic jumpsuit.

Being half awake and a good friend, she put it on only to be dragged to a truck and pushed inside.

Daniella didn\'t reply which ignited her irritation. Without proper makeup and breakfast, Peyton was looking like a dragon.

"Answer me!" her voice raised a bit, so Daniella glared at her.

Like a puppy that got scolded, Peyton\'s expression softened while her lips form a pout.

"I am hungry," she said in a whisper, following Daniella towards the back door of the west wing of the building.

Her eyes shone in contentment when Daniella handed her a plastic with a bun inside, without thinking, Peyton took a big bite and chewed it loudly.

"I got it from the garbage truck," Daniella spoke with a flat voice.

Peyton dropped the bread, her mouth parted in shock.

"Just kidding," Daniella picked up the bread and brushed off the dust on it, "I got it from the homeless guy outside of the hotel, he said I look hot like his bread."

Staring at the bread in Daniella\'s hand, Peyton rose a brow.

"Well you are indeed just like this bread, cheap and disgusting," she walked past Daniella but immediately hid when a guard passed by.

Daniella rolled her eyes and seized Peyton\'s arm. She dragged her all the way to the bathroom and opened the bag pack she brought.

A blonde wig, black suits and a whole head skin mask, Peyton gulped hard. Seemed like they will disguise themselves as someone well to get pass to whatever Daniella wanted to go.

"Why do I have a man\'s face? Can\'t you make me a Hillary Clinton face?" Peyton complained.

With a flat face, Daniella replied sarcastically, "don\'t you think it\'s a little off to see Hillary Clinton here?"

"And so, as Donald Trump!" Peyton whispered-yelled waving the mask that looks like Donald Trump in front of Daniella.

Slapping the mask away, Daniella narrowed her eyes.

"Do you want Obama?" she replied and showed the mask she grabbed from the bag.

The two switched their eyes between the masks in their hands and soon, silent laughs left her lips.

After a long moment of laughing, Peyton wiped her tears. She massaged her stomach a bit and blew out a sign.

"No, seriously, why are we having these mask?"

Daniella wiped her tears as well. This was the first time she laughed since the night she saw Evan.

"There\'s a children\'s party happening here for orphan kids, some people are wearing masks."

"Don\'t you think this mask looks a bit realistic for a children party?"

Daniella shrugged, "it\'s fine, there\'s a costume competition here maybe we can win the first prize."

Peyton shook her head, still couldn\'t understand why Daniella was so desperate for money when she has so much.

Meanwhile at the Su Villa.

After getting scolded by Evan about dropping out of school, Selena\'s face darkened in irritation.

Not only Daniella left the villa but her uncle rarely stayed in there leaving her alone with the maids and Camille.

With her sleeveless dress and mini skirt, Selena slouched on the couch, both legs on the table.

She turned on the television and saw a Marlboro advertis.e.m.e.nt. As she continued watching, her eyes were squinted.

She looked around when the commercial ended. All the maids were busy cleaning the villa after Camille earlier noticed that there was a speck of dust in one of the figurines on the shelves.

She got up casually and walked towards the kitchen.

"Everyone, leave the kitchen," she ordered.

When the place became empty, she grabbed a chair and reached for the kitchen cabinet. She remembered where Daniella hid her cigarettes. When she felt the box, her lips formed a smile. She quickly hid it in her pocket and went upstairs to her bedroom.

She closed the door behind, locked it and sat on her bed.

After opening the box, she blew out a sigh, she knew it was bad but it might be the only way for her to get Daniella back, after all, she lived in the villa as her babysitter.

She lit the tip of the cigarettes and suck the other end, as the smoke entered her throat a loud cough roared from her mouth.

Her breathing hardened, the taste was so bitter and the smell was awful but she\'s determined to get Daniella back so she puffed a smoke one after another.
