My Ex Next Door

Daniella and Peyton occupied the same position they had earlier and Daniella asked her to play one more time.

"Wait… I don't know how I won, this is pure luck" Novie whispered, she was lucky at her first attempt but she's certain that in the second game, she might not get lucky.

Daniella winked at her, "I am working on a case and I need you to lose so I can spend time with him, ok?" Daniella asked her.

Novie was confounded but since Daniella helped Ken in so many ways so she couldn't say no.

And with that, another round of a game begins.

And this time the man won.

He got up from his chair with a big perverted smile on his face while his arm widened. Novie bit her lips and watched Daniella and Peyton walked to the man direction and let him wrapped his disgusting arms around their small waist.

Novie's heart pounded in concern, she prayed that nothing will happen to them.

"hey let's go and exchange all this chip Mila spoke in exciting tone, Novie looked at her and raised an eyebrow, seems like the woman doesn't care what can happen to Daniella.

"let's go, don't worry they said they are working on something. For sure they have it under control. Let's go and partyyyyy" Mila squeal in enthusiasm.

Novie sighed and left. After they change all the chips, she called Ken and this time his phone rang

Her heart jolted in delight when she heard his voice.

"Ken. I missed you" she blurted, she knows that Ken must have been so worried after the note Daniella left in the mirror, she wasn't able to get in touch to him but after they got the money from the chips they won, she was able to call Ken.

"are you pregnant?" Ken suddenly asked on the other line without greeting her.

Novie creased her brows and wonder why Ken asked her that question, her confuse face shifted to flat when she realized that Anders must have given them the wrong information.

"No" she replied short. After she cleared the issue they continue talking as if there's no tomorrow.

After they talked, Novie went to the bar with Mila.

They sat on the bar stool and watched the people as they pass by,

"Novie" Novie almost chokes from drinking her juice when a voice suddenly spoke from somewhere. She turned around and saw John wearing a blue shirt and jeans

"Hi" she got up and about to give him a handshake when the man placed a small kiss on her cheeks.

(Whoa!) She was shocked.

Novie introduced her friend Mila to John who seemed to have lost her senses when the man smiled.

John asked if he can sit with them, Novie wants to refuse but her friend Mila was like a drooling dog who said yes without consulting her.

The man ordered a drink and started the conversation which Novie didn't think would be interesting.

Novie excused herself for a restroom and leave John and Mila together. On the way, a man in his forties stops her from entering the restroom, she slapped his hand away from holding her arm and immediately run back to their table.

Her heart pounded like crazy, she was not expecting for anyone to assault her especially in such a place like a casino.

Before she reached the table, a hand stopped her from walking, she turned around and saw the same man from before. Terror overtook her face when she noticed the other big men behind him which seem to be his guard.

"what...what do you want?" she asked, fear made her voice weak.

The man maliciously walked closer to her and about to move his face to her when suddenly his body flew away, Novie's eyes widened and turned to her side to find her boyfriend with his fist clenched in anger.

Ken instantly walked to the man's direction who was leaning against the wall, massaging his back.

(!)

Novie's shoulder jumped in surprised when Ken took the man and smashed his body on the floor. He positioned his body on top of him and keeps on throwing a punch on his face one after another.

The whole place went in chaos, no one tried to stop Ken even the guard.

Novie looked around and saw Evan and Glen with Matthew and Brent standing behind her.

"Stop him, "she asked Evan, but the man shook his head.

"let him... he's been aching to punch him since he saw what he did to you in the restroom" with those words Novie creased her brows.

She was not expecting that Ken has been following her, that must be the reason he didn't bother to ask where she was.

Novie knows that it's only her who can stop Ken, she walks to his direction and saw his blank face, there was no emotion in Ken's eyes while his fist keeps on punching the man's face as if it was a punching bag.

Novie was terrified if Ken doesn't stop, he can kill him.

Novie ran to his directions and tried to stop him but before she could, John came and stop Ken's hand in the air. Ken turned to John's direction with dark aura lurking around him.

Ken stood up and tug John collar

"why are you here?" Ken spoke on anger. Before John could reply Ken's fist landed to his cheeks.

(!!)

Novie covered her parted lip with her hand in shock, John flew some meters away and when she thought that Ken will stop the man didn't, instead he keeps on punching the man's face as if he's been possessed.

"Enough Ken. He's not doing anything " Evan took his arm while Glen grabbed the other.

Ken shook their hands from holding his arms and looked at Novie.

When Novie saw the blood all over John's face, her feet immediately walked to his direction and lift his head, she placed it on her legs and tried to wipe the blood away.

"John are you all right?" Novie asked in terror. The man opened his eyes and got up but his body was too weak

"Novie let's go" it was Ken's voice. Novie lifted her face and slapped his hand away.

"how can you do this?" she got up and yelled at him, she no longer cares about the people whispering around. She's furious that Ken beat up John just because he tried to stop him from killing a person.

Without waiting for his response, Novie helped John to walk back to his room. She glared at Ken when he tried to stop her.

"let me help him" Ken offered

Novie narrowed her eyes at him.

"no, you've done enough" and with that, they both walked to the door.
