La Rossa closed her eyes, she murmured to herself, "Gilbert, is that you?
La Rossa's heart suddenly ached at the memory of him, she missed him as much as she missed her parents. She lost him exactly the same way she lost her parents. At the same time La Rossa had to lose everyone she loved.
La Rossa still had her eyes closed, but her consciousness was still awake. All her life she had never felt calm even in her dreams.
Since the incident 20 years ago she had never enjoyed a good night's sleep, to remedy this she would train all day until she felt tired, making it easy for her to fall asleep quickly. During this time he honed his skills in fighting and using weapons, almost all weapons he mastered.
Her movement speed was unmatched in her group, she was the best member of the Vangsed group.
Not only that, La Rossa is also good at IT, he became the mainstay hacker in the Vangsed group. At a young age La Rossa was able to kill the head of the Mafia group. At that time he was only 15 years old but his abilities exceeded those above him.
La Rossa's joining of the Vangsed was the biggest advancement in the Vangsed's history. He became a feared professional assassin.
Jonathan glanced at La Rossa who was closing her eyes, he looked at La Rossa's beautiful face. He muttered to himself, 'it's fitting that Mr. Gilbert wants her so badly, he's even willing to take the actions that I've been suggesting but never heeded.'
La Rossa's cell phone rang, she reached into her bag and immediately took out the phone and scrolled through it without opening her eyes.
"What's wrong?" La Rossa asked softly.
"Where are you?"
"I'm fine, don't worry about me."
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, when are you coming home?"
"Today."
La Rossa hung up the phone, Jonathan who heard the interaction between La Rossa and the caller was surprised. The girl spoke in such a gentle and caring tone, who could have made La Rossa like that.
His curiosity was aroused instantly, Jonathan who is usually cuex this time his soul was thrashing. His curiosity was higher than his ethics.
"Who?" Jonathan asked, ignoring his embarrassment.
"Never meddle in other people's business if you don't have the capacity to!" La Rossa scolded.
Jonathan did not dare to utter a single sentence, he felt that he was so stupid to interfere in other people's business. He felt ashamed of himself and La Rossa.
At a red light junction, the van carrying La Rossa stopped for a red light. She asked to get off.
"Let me down here," La Rossa pleaded.
"But I was ordered by Mr. Gilbert to take you to safety," Jonathan refused.
"I can take care of myself!" snapped La Rossa.
"Open the door quickly, or I'll break it down!" continued La Rossa impatiently.
Jonathan who saw La Rossa's cold stare was forced to relent, he then opened the car door. And La Rossa got out in a hurry, Jonathan's curiosity was aroused again. He also opened the car door and got out. As soon as he got out Jonathan was surprised, how could he not see La Rossa anymore. Let alone her person, not even her shadow could be seen by Jonathan.
"That fast she left? Just a matter of seconds? How is that possible!" muttered Jonathan.
"I think Mr. Gilbert was wrong to worry about her," Jonathan muttered again.
He scratched the back of his head in confusion as La Rossa disappeared in the blink of an eye. He who was ordered to guard her did not know where to look for her.
Jonathan contacted the shadow guards to confirm La Rossa's whereabouts.
"Did you see the girl?" Jonathan asked Samuel. The man who led the shadow guards.
"No sir, I lost track of her," Samuel said.
"How could you? She's not a ghost with the ability to disappear!" snapped Jonathan angrily.
How would he answer to Gilbert later when he was asked about La Rossa's news?
"Search her until you find her!" Jonathan ordered.
He seemed to have forgotten that La Rossa was called the man without a shadow.
"How could I forget this, a MAN WITHOUT A SHADOW," Jonathan muttered.
Jonathan felt a vibration in his coat pocket, he reached for the flat object.
"Don't ever follow me and watch my movements or I will...,!" threatened La Rossa with emphasis on every word she said, her voice cold enough to freeze anyone.
La Rossa's voice was cut off, making Jonathan even more worried, what happened to La Rossa?
La Rossa slips from one car to another, her speed beyond human reason. He earned the nickname Shadowless Man from his almost imperceptible speed in moving from place to place.
She knocked on a battered sedan among a line of other cars waiting for the green light. The car door opened, La Rossa immediately slipped inside.
"How are you Ros?" greeted the person behind the wheel.
"How are you?" La Rossa asked back.
"As you can see. I've been looking for you, and thank goodness I finally met you," the person said.
"I've told you many times Jhon, find a life partner so you won't be lonely. I won't be by your side forever," said La Rossa.
It turned out that the person was Jhonny Andrea. The person who has been with La Rossa.
"I will not look for a partner before you find yours," Jhon replied.
La Rossa was silent, she didn't say anything else. The atmosphere was silent.
"Vangsed is still looking for you, he knows you're alive," Jhon glanced at La Rossa with the corner of his eye.
"I know!" La Rossa replied.
"Then what are you going to do?" asked Jhon.
"Nothing!" replied La Rossa coldly.
"Ros, forget about the past. We can start all over again, we can become ordinary people, farmers maybe, or merchants," said Jhon.
La Rossa looked at Jhon who was driving. Tears welled up in her eyes.
