Chapter 45: The Little Zombie (10)
Mr. Miller glanced lightly at Mara without much change in his expression.
“Follow me to the office” He said lightly and turned away.
Mara stared at his leaving back coldly buy still followed behind him.
They got to his office and the door was shut close.
“What did you just say?” Mr. Miller sat down and asked the girl standing in front of him.
“I said that Rose Blair is a Zombie!” Mara repeated without any fear.
She was confident in her discovery and knew that they would believe her.
“So?” Mr. Miller was still calm as his performance was totally unexpected by Mara.
At least she expected him to ask her everything she knew and then find ways to get rid of her.
But even so she didn’t lose her composure and confidence as she wanted to convince him that what she is saying is the truth.
“The General would be in danger, The same as everyone else in the base. No one knows when she will be out of her senses” She stated.
“You are right, It’s really dangerous for a Zombie to be in the same Base with us,” Mr. Miller Saud as Mara nodded confidently while thinking that he finally believed her.
But Mr. Miller’s next question made her realize that it will take a while for her to convince him.
“But why should I believe you” He asked her.
“I have been with her in the same car for a whole week and I saw it all!” She stated, a little bit flustered.
“And you got to the Base Alive?” Mr. Miller asked again.
“Huh?* Mara was Confused for a while before finally recovering “Yes!”
“So, Comrade Mara, What you just said, Does it make sense to you?,
You were in a car with a Zombie fir a while week and she never attacked or bit either of you.
Even more, She passed the mechanism which showed that she is human not a Zombie.”
“But_”
“If you don’t like her that’s your business and has nothing to do with the military. Don’t go spreading absurd rumors!” He warned her sternly.
“But_”
“You can leave!” He showed her the exit.
Mara felt unwilling but knowing that she couldn’t provoke the commander and with the fact that he doesn’t believe her, she could only turn and leave.
After she left, Mr. Miller tapped his finger looking at the distance as no one knew what he was thinking.
He touched the telephone and made a call.
“Both of you should come to my office!” He said and hung up the call.
Listening to what Mara said, she didn’t look like she was lying but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t see her hatred and calculations towards that Girl.
It is obvious, Mara wants to use his power and get rid of the young girl who she deems ad a threat and Rival in love.
After all who doesn’t know how much Mara loves and admires his son, He has also seen it but since his son didn’t show interest he didn’t bother worrying about it.
And the Very first girl his son cares about us rumored to be a zombie. For a while he didn’t know how to react.
Of course, he has his doubts after all this is not how a Zombie looks
A knock sounded in the room.
‘Come in” He said and watched the two. peopke that were coming in.
“Comrade Nelly and Comrade Jonas” He called as the both of them Saluted him.
“Salute!”
“General you called for us?” Jonas asked.
“What do you know about Miss Blair?” He asked them directly.
“Huh?” Nelly didn’t know how to answer for a while.
“Nothing. She lost her memory and we only know that her name is Rose Blair” Jonas replied immediately.
“She lost her memory?” Mr. Miller frowned.
“Yes, We met her on the road Side all alone_” Nelly paused and didn’t finish.
“And what?” Mr. Miller glanced at him.
“It was strange but she called the commander ‘Husband'” Jonas helped him complete it.
“Tell me everything that happened from the very Moment she met you” He ordered the sternly.
“That$” They hesitated.
“You don’t have to worry. Apart from the three of us, no one else will find out that we had this conversation” He guaranteed them.
“I know it’s strange but after she joined us, we were never attacker by Zombies. Even when we drive past them, they also walk past us without attacking us.
At one time, Zombies kept attacking a group we were with but none of them cake to our side.
We all felt it was strange but at the same time we felt fortunate” Nelly explained sincerely.
“You never suspected her identity?” Mr. Miller raised his brows.
“We suspected! After all she absorbed only nucleus and only ate snacks once in a while. But the most important thing is that she wasn’t a threat to us and instead helped us so we decided to turn a blind eye.
Most importantly, The commander cared so. mych about her” Jonas said.
“Well, It is good that you guys told me this. Don’t let a third party know about what we discussed.” He reminded them as the both of them nodded and turned to leave.
Whilst this was going on, Rose returned to the room listening to AI3’S comment while Lucas was doing his business in his office.
“You mean Mara knows about me and told Lucas Father about it?” Rose asked.
“Yes, Fortunately he wasn’t fooled easily but he confirmed or is suspecting your identity after he finishes talking to Nelly and Jonas” AI3 gave her a recount of what happened.
“Yeah, But why do you think she hates me so much? We have never had an encounter before” Rose raised her eyes and asked a little but confused.
She didn’t care but she felt it was strange, So strange that she doesn’t know how to place it.
“She like Lucas Miller” AI3 said to her.
“Oh? It turned out to be a love Rival but why do I feel like that’s not the only thing here and that there is more to it” She shook her head not planning to think much.
“How about the Male and Female lead?” She asked and changed the topic directly.
“The Female lead found Liam Mason and she is still at the stage of Taming him. Host? Didn’t you tell him to eat her?” AI3 asked as she didn’t understand.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“The show is just starting. I should find a way to meet them soon” She smirked while waving her legs.
“What are you so happy about?” Lucas voice broke into the room.
Rose raised her eyes and blinked at him Ignorantly and then smiled brightly at him.
Chuckling, He went over and rubbed her hair.
“It’s Late, so you should wash up and have Dinner” He reminded her as the young girl nodded obediently and stood up from the bed.
She took a step forward but her leg missed a step causing her to suddenly lose her balance thereby making her way to the floor.
But the expected pain didn’t come, Instead she felt a hand on her waist and her face hitting the Hard chest.
Rubbing her hurting nose, Rose suddenly felt that it was much better to fall to the floor than to break her nose in this Rock like Chest.
She didn’t know when tears welled up in her eyes.
“Are you ok?” He asked her but was left baffled by her crying.
For the first time he didn’t know how to react.
“Don’t cry. It’s my fault” He patted her back while hugging her.
“Host, I never knew that you were so fragile” AI3 didn’t hesitate to tease her.
“Shut up! If not for the stupid IQ will I be in this situation?”
Just when she was busy arguing with AI3 she felt a light touch on her lips.
And Boom!
“Am I being taken advantage of?!”
