Demons Beside You
/ Demons Beside You Chapter 259
Fali had the most insane shopping trip in her life .
Although her family was quite wealthy, she was not a crazy shopaholic .
It had a lot to do with her personality . While Fali liked to wear famous brands and read fashion magazines just like most women, she was a rational shopper .
However, today she was forced to spend more than fifty thousand dollars on clothes and shoes .
Of course, even so, Fali was still rather rational .
Most items she bought cost between one to two thousand . The only exception was a pair of shoes which cost more than four thousand .
Chen Zhao had to put the items in his car before they could continue to shop .
Fali felt as if Chen Zhao was going to buy the entire street for her .
Even though shopping was indeed pleasurable, as a rational person, Fali was worried whether the items were too expensive and whether Chen Zhao could really afford them .
“Alright . I think we've bought enough . ” Fali wanted to stop the shopping trip .
Chen Zhao muttered into Fali's ears, “Actually, I want to see you in VS undies . ”
Fali immediately flushed . “Asshole . ”
After a while, they returned to the Coastal Rescue Team HQ . When the female lifeguards saw the various shopping bags Chen Zhao was carrying, they could not move their eyes away .
They were the brands every woman dreamed of getting . The things Chen Zhao was carrying probably cost more than their monthly salary .
To be honest, Chen Zhao really did not want to carry the items himself . His SUV trunk was already full, so he had to put the rest in Fali's car .
Anyway, the scene was a huge blow to the women in the HQ .
They were confident that their appearance and body were comparable to Fali's . Why could they just not meet a man who was rich and willing to spend for them?

The branded clothes Chen Zhao was carrying cost at least twenty thousand .
“Fali, don't drive too fast today . Follow me . I'll bring you to a place . ”
“Where?”
“You'll know when we arrive . ”
Is he going to propose to me? Fali thought .
What should I do then?
I'm not ready…
Nevertheless, Fali did not know how to reject Chen Zhao . She really liked him .
If Chen Zhao was rejected, would they break up?
Fali drove her car and followed Chen Zhao .
She soon realized that they had entered Beverly Hills .
“Chen, where exactly are we going?” Fali kept imagining the various possibilities .
Chen Zhao's car made many turns and climbed the hill . Eventually, he stopped in front of a villa .
Fali was even more puzzled . Is it his friend's house?
Is he going to introduce me to his friend?
Why didn't he tell me earlier then?
He has no reason to keep it a secret, right?

Fali alighted from her car and looked at Chen Zhao, confused . “Chen, is this your friend's house?”
“It's our temporary house . ” Chen Zhao gave a dry laugh .
“Why?” Fali's face was filled with doubt . “Chen, isn't our house in Mountain Town good enough? Why are we moving here? Also, our new home will be ready soon . ”
“Err… Actually… our house had a fire and everything is gone . ”
“…” Fali finally understood why Chen Zhao had forced her to shop and buy so many things .
All her belongings had been burnt .
“Everything's gone?”
“Everything's gone,” Chen Zhao confirmed .
“Were you at home that time?” Fali suddenly looked at Chen Zhao, worried . “Were you injured?”
“No . ”
“It's great that you were not hurt . ” Fali hugged Chen Zhao .
Cough, cough…
Chen Zhao turned his head and realized it was Paul .
“Err… Paul, why are you here?”
“Mr . Rasfa asked me to deliver some things to you . I thought you probably haven't prepared the daily necessities, so I brought some here,” Paul said .
“Thank you, Paul . ”

Paul was sensitive enough to leave after delivering the items .
Fali admired the view of villa . To be honest, the villa was in an excellent location . Situated halfway up the hill, they could see half of Beverly Hills and an entire coastline in the distance . The villa faced the magnificent sea and rested against the lush mountains .
It also had a swimming pool and various modern facilities .
“Chen, is our new home better than this place?”
“Definitely . It'll be a lot better . ”
The villa was actually quite small .
It also did not have a lot of space on the outside . In fact, their original rented house was more spacious outside .
Black-Ma, White-Ma and the rest could only play on the rooftop .
The house Robio had designed for them was three to four times bigger than this villa .
They each had their own geographical advantages .
Beverly Hills was one of the busiest places . Mirror Lake was certainly much quieter .
If the rivers connected to Mirror Lake could be widened, small and medium ships would be able to pass by their house . Chen Zhao felt that this would make their new home much more lively .
Furthermore, Amon would also be able to enter the lake .
It would truly be a reunion, unlike now . Chen Zhao's entire “family” was kind of living in rented properties .
At night, Spike was hiding in an abandoned factory with a bottle of red wine in his hand .
He already knew that he was being hunted by the police .
Attempted murder, arson, burglary .

Spike knew that he was done for, unlike his crimes in the past .
In the past, he would at most be kept in the police station for three days . Nothing would happen after that .
Now, he would be jailed for at least several years .
All he wanted at the moment was to earn some money and then leave the states .
He would hide in a Third World country . At least he would not be chased by both the police and the loan sharks .
Just then, he noticed some light outside the factory .
Spike immediately lowered his body nervously and looked at the outside carefully .
There was a car . A few men in black jackets alighted from the car . One of them was holding a case .
Suddenly, Spike's phone vibrated . He turned off the vibration at once to avoid being exposed .
“We are already here . Where are you?”
Spike remained silent . He had to confirm whether those men were the correct people .
To be honest, he really did not understand why someone would spend a million dollars on a bottle of red wine .
No, it was more like one-third of a bottle .
Despite so, someone was still willing to pay a million for it .
Spike felt it was really absurd .
After a while, Spike finally said, “I'm in the factory . Only one of you can come in . ”
The person holding the case walked in and looked at Spike who was hiding in the darkness .
“Where's the thing?”
“I need to see the money first,” Spike said carefully . It was a million-dollar trade, after all . He did not know if the person had been lying to him .
The person unlocked the case and threw it before Spike .
