’Hmm?’
Michael’s suddenly became sharp, and he suddenly turned towards his right side while his right hand quickly flashed in front of him and caught the thing that was flying towards his head between his fingers.
"How bold, doing this when there’s a lot of people just a few meters away from us. Come out, it’s no use hiding. I can perfectly see where you are" Michael scoffed, as he started playing with the small dagger that was thrown to him with his hand.
"Tsk, I didn’t know you have a little bit of skills. It seems this might turn out to be a bit of a hassle after all"
A man of eastern descent came out of the shadows while laughing coldly as he stared at Michael with coldness in his eyes, like he was already looking at a deadman.
"It doesn’t matter, because you would still die tonight"
"That would depend if your capable enough to take my life!"
Michael growled menacingly as he charged towards the man with the dagger on his hand glinting coldly.
Meanwhile.
Amanda was looking around the mansion on her own, and while walking around the second floor, she suddenly heard the distinct sound of metal colliding against each other, and she realized that it was coming from outside.
So she walked over towards the entrance of the balcony of the home, where she immediately spotted Michael fighting with someone on the driveway.
"This...what’s happening?" Amanda mumbled to herself as she quickly ducked down behind the concrete railings and watched the scene happening in front of her eyes through the gaps between the railings.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
’Oh my god, are they trying to kill each other?’ Amanda immediately had that thought the moment she saw that the man that Michael is fighting in a knife fight is bleeding on one of his arms.
Michael and the man didn’t even notice the person watching them from above the balcony because of the lamp on the balcony wasn’t even turned on, which resulted in Amanda being able to spy on the two of them.
"Michael...just who are you?"
*****
"You...you’re not an ordinary person. Just who are you?" the man said with a trembling voice, while holding his injured arm.
"You don’t need to know, because this day is gonna be your death anniversary" Michael coldly.
"Hmmmp!" the man just snorted, and then he suddenly turned around and bolted out of there, as he decided that the man in front of him is actually a tiger in sheep’s clothing!
"Get back here!" Michael said as he quickly chased after him.
The man was heading towards the nearby woodlands of this neighborhood, which is also considered as a park suitable for camping and picnics.
"Don’t even think about escaping from me!" Michael laughed as he followed the man inside the woodlands covered in an almost total darkness with only a few lamp post illuminating around the place.

"What happened?" Jenny asked when she saw Amanda coming down from the second floor with a weird look on her face, while taking a bite out of her slice of pizza on her hand.
"Nothing, I just saw something unbelievable tonight" Amanda said in a low voice.

"What? I can’t hear what you’re saying" Jenny said, as she walked over to her.
"Ahh, it’s nothing. I was just talking to myself" Amanda said, before she hurriedly walked towards the kitchen and took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator.
"Hmmm...I wonder what happened with her?"
A few minutes earlier.
"Hey, did you guys see Michael?" Emma asked Tina and Casey.
"Ohh, I think I saw him at the front of the house earlier" Casey said, as she remembered she saw him there earlier talking to three women.
"I already went there, but didn’t see him. He literally is nowhere to be found right now" Emma gritted her teeth in anger, as she felt like Michael is avoiding her tonight.
"But I did saw him talking to a woman earlier, and it seems that he likes her based on the way he was looking at her," Casey said.
"Who?" Emma asked, her voice turning cold, and that even the men trying to talk to them immediately backed away from them.
"Her" Casey said, while pointing towards Amanda who’s currently conversing with Tony.
"Who is she?" Emma said as her eyes flashed with a dangerous light, like she was looking at a powerful enemy.
"Oh her, that’s the woman that my brother has been telling me about that Michael likes...and I think she’s the owner of the newly opened cafe just two blocks away from Grey Gym"
Tina turned her head towards the direction that Casey was pointing at and was surprised that it was actually the woman that Michael likes, then she glanced at Emma and felt that the air around the three of them is getting cold.
"So she’s that woman" Emma gritted her teeth.
"I told you before that Michael has someone he likes, you just didn’t believe me" Tina said while shrugging her shoulders.
"Hmmp, I won’t lose to her"
"Didn’t she only have a pair of big b.r.e.a.s.ts? I have those too" Emma crossed her arms, making her already huge b.r.e.a.s.t even looks bigger.
"Uohh!"
The men around them gave a voice of amazement while they stared at her bountiful mounds and started breathing like the beast they are.
"She has a nice rump? I have those too! A beautiful face? I’m also a beauty! I don’t lose out to her in every possible way"
"Wait, where are you going?" Tina said when she quickly noticed what Emma’s planning to do.
"What else? If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles" Emma said seriously before she started walking towards Amanda.
"This...did she just recite a part of one of the most famous quotes from the Art of War?"
"Yes, she did"
"Wow, I haven’t seen her like this before. She’s literally lovestruck, isn’t she?"
"She sure is"
"F*ck off! Who are you people!?"
Emma had just gotten beside Amanda and was about to say something when there was suddenly a huge commotion happening behind her.
