Chapter 76 - How Do You Know My Sister?



"Joshua, we have a problem," Ivy said, looking at the hefty and muscular people around them. Although she was not scared, she was a little nervous. They were around ten encircling Joshua and her. The odds of the two winning was less than the temperature in Antarctica on a cold winter night.

"Stay close, Ivy. I'll take care of these hooligans." Joshua said, as he moved closer to her.

"Are you sure? They look quite strong." Ivy whispered.

"Do you mean that I am weak?" Joshua said. His eyes not wavering from the men surrounding them.

"No. I did not mean that. They are all bulky while you are lean."

"Don't worry. I'll take you out of here unscathed."

Joshua's voice had confidence in it which made Ivy less nervous than before. Yet, she could not calm her racing heart.

"Look at this." A voice sounded from the stairs. Everybody looked up. He was short in stature. Compared to Joshua, he was a lot shorter. Nothing more was could be said about him as he was standing in a dark area. Yes, the only they could make out was that, he was wearing shades. He was not in the room when Joshua and Ivy had barged inside.

"What are you doing in my club?"

The two people remained silent.

"I'll ask you another question. Why did you hit that man?" Ivy looked around. Everybody was looking at them. Even the people from the room were present. However, the man whose head was smashed with the bottle was nowhere to be seen.

"Looks like you will not answer me this question either. Then I have no choice." The man said and waved his hand. The people closed in Ivy and Joshua on all sides.

One man ran towards them. But, before he could even make an attack, a loud crunching sound was heard. The music had been stopped and it was pin-drop silent. So, the sudden sound of something breaking was quite blaring.

Ivy was a little scared. She thought it was Joshua who had been injured. However, when she the man who had tried to attack, cry out in pain, she realized she was wrong.

Joshua was fine. In fact, he had not moved an inch from his place.

In the next fifteen minutes, all the men surrounding Ivy fell to the ground one by one. She could not comprehend what was happening. First of all, Joshua had not moved from his position. Second, he looked so calm that it was difficult to tell that he had injured all these people. And lastly, he looked perfectly fine. He was not injured, except for the small amount of blood on his knuckles.

More men tried to attack them. Yet, they were unsuccessful. They met the same fate as their fellow attackers. They could not anticipate when Joshua would strike them next. He attacked them when they were least expecting him to. Moreover, they couldn't even see his attacks. It was as fast as a bolt of lightning.

Joshua smirked. He was not called the Master of the Underworld without a reason. These people could not even compare to his shoelace.

"Interesting." The man clapped. He was amused. The man who looked quite fragile was actually capable of defending himself without getting even a scratch.

"Who are you?" The man said.

"Does it matter?" Joshua asked indifferently.

"You are right. It doesn't matter who you are. Because." He pulled out his gun and aimed it at Joshua. "I am going to kill you and the girl will be mine."

Joshua was calm. He did not react at all. Ivy looked back and forth between the two men. Joshua's calm face and indifference confused her.

"Any last words, my friend?" The man asked.

"You have to say."

"What?"

"You will have to say your last words."

"And why would that be?"

"Because the one who is going to die is you, not me."

The man chuckled. "You are quite weird. I like you. If you beg me, I might pardon my life."

"I don't like you and I don't beg old farts."

"Then get ready to die." The man placed his hands on the trigger. Before he could press it, a loud gunshot was heard. The man fell to the ground. All the people screamed looking at this scene. They tried to run towards the exit. However it was blocked by the police. They were surrounded.

The police took them away immediately and sealed the area. Joshua held Ivy's hand and pulled her towards the exit. Nobody stopped him. He passed the huge crowd with ease.

They walked in silence till they reached her motorbike. Ivy was still in shock. They had made it out alive from the den. Joshua had saved her. She took a peek at him. Sensing her gaze, he glanced at her. She diverted her eyes to the front. After some time, she took a look at him again.

"Do you want to say something?"

"Joshua, thank you. I really appreciate what you did for me." Ivy was sincere. She was not the person who hid her gratitude.

"Just thanks. Not enough. I want you to treat me to dinner tonight."

Ivy giggled. Joshua had saved her life. She could treat him to dinner. It was only fair.

"First, let's get out of here," Ivy said.

"Can you still ride your bike or shall we hail a cab?" Joshua was worried. He felt that she was a little shaken up.

"Are you kidding me? I am perfectly fine. Why do you ask?"

"I thought you were shocked."

"I was shocked. I thought I would die, or at least some of my bones would break. However, thanks to you. I am safe. By the way, you were super cool." Ivy gave him a thumbs up.

"I did not know that you had so much strength in you." She continued, her eyes filled with admiration.

"Oh. Thanks for the compliment. I hear that from a lot of women, you know ." Joshua winked.

"Can't you make any conversation without flirting?"

"And miss the enjoyment. No way. Flirting is my blood right."

Ivy rolled her eyes. "Show me your hand."

"Why?" Joshua stretched his hand in front of her.

Ivy took out a bottle of water and cleaned the blood on his hand. There were minor scratches on his knuckles. Most of them were small ones, expect the one on his forefinger. It was quite big. She took a band-aid from the first aid kit in her bike and put it on him.

"Do you care for me? I am touched."

Here he goes again. Ivy sighed. Just when she thought he would not talk anything absurd, he started it again.

"I have been told since childhood to treat the wounded and I am doing that."

"Oh just like your sister."

"What? How do you know my sister?" Ivy raised an eyebrow. She remembered she had never told him about her.

Joshua wanted to smack his head for his slip of the tongue. He thought for a few seconds. "I had heard about her from Max. He told me that she was a doctor."

That was a possibility. Max might have told him. "Yes, she is a doctor at the Regal Medical Hospital."

"That's cool. Shall we go now? I am a little hungry."

"Sure. Hop on. Wait a second. Give me your wig." She took both the wigs and stuffed it in her bag.

"Now come on." She gave him a smile.

Joshua breathed a sigh of relief. He had managed clear suspicions by his quick thinking.
