"Sorry, I didn't recognize it was you; I got a little too rough there."
Arabella only saw a suspicious figure lurking around her home, and she thought she was a threat to her family.
"No, no, it's my fault for popping up all of a sudden without giving you a heads up. You didn't do anything wrong!"
Myrna pocketed the small bottle and grabbed Arabella's hand with a grin, saying, "You could've totally offed me, but you didn't; you held back. That shows you're a kind-hearted, super gentle girl!"
Could the flattery get any thicker?
Myrna: "I'm not hurting at all, seriously! Don't tell your family how this happened; it's all water under the bridge!"
Arabella got it. Myrna didn't want her to get in trouble. Who knew Myrna was this nice? From the moment she walked through the door, she had Arabella's back.
As they walked forward, Myrna seemed to remember something: "Hold on, how come you're the boss of Mafia Flame? Does Chasel know about this?"
"He doesn't know." Arabella replied calmly, "It's a long story, but how did you figure out it was me?"
Myrna gave a cheeky smile. "You saved me a year ago, don't you remember?"
Arabella drew a blank.
"I was on a secret mission and got chased down by enemies from another country. You showed up out of nowhere and took on ten guys to help me. The move you pulled tonight was your opener back then; it left a mark!"
Myrna's words jogged Arabella's memory.
Myrna was all bloody, chased by a gang. Despite her disguise as a man and wearing a mask, Arabella could tell from her movements and figure that she was a young woman.
