My Evil Boy Toy

Chapter 143 - 141 - Gunshot



The man stood up and turned to face us. It was George. No! It was his twin brother because George is currently prisoned in Flousia.

I didn't know his name. Jayden just told me about him after I was kidnapped. He really looks like George but has a darker aura.

He was wearing that black hoodie jacket again. He smirked at Jayden then he looked at me. His eyes were cold but there was something in it that I couldn't explain. He turned to Jayden again, staring at him with rage.

"I'm not here to hurt anyone. I was asked to deliver a message to you and Peggy." He said.

I couldn't tell Jayden's reaction. I can only see his back with his one hand holding a gun. I don't really like guns but I know it was necessary. I also don't want Jayden to be defenseless from the enemy.

"You have no right to even mention my wife's name!" Jayden almost yelled.

George's brother smirked again.

"And you have the right to marry your enemy's daughter? Are you really sure you married her because you love her? Or is it revenge?" He asked Jayden, then he looked at me.

"Do you really believe he sincerely loves you? Have you ever thought about his motive? The easiest way to avenge his mother was to marry you. Are you sure you are safe with this man? How about your son? How sure are you that he wouldn't hurt you and your son?" He asked, looking at me intently.

I was looking at him when Jayden turned and stared into my eyes. For a moment, I felt that strange feeling again, that he wasn't my husband but I know it was his other self. He already told me about him. I know the risks but I am willing to take it.

I stared into his eyes and smiled. I will never allow anyone to ruin my relationship with him. Even my father.

Jayden winked at me and smiled back. For some reason, we understand each other even without saying a word. Then he turned to the man again.

"Try to look at her again and I will make sure you won't get out of here alive!"

Jayden's words brought fear into my body. I trembled. Alora held my left hand while Sophie held on my right. They knew I was scared. I was biting my lips because I was starting to get numb. I couldn't feel anything.

"Fine. Fine. Again, I'm here to deliver a message. Boss said if you don't give his daughter and his grandson, we will attack the palace. You have a week to decide. Remember, we have a lot of allies inside the palace. The lives of the future king and queen will not be spared. If you don't want a bloody war with the mafia, I suggest you give up." He said.

I felt like I would faint. My heart wouldn't stop pounding. I wanted to run towards Jayden. I wanted to feel him. The only hands that I could feel safe were by his touch. I became anxious because of my brother and Emily's safety.

"You are very confident that your side will win. What made you think I will give my wife and my son to that devil? Get out of here and tell your master, I won't hesitate anymore. If he wants war then we will give him war." Jayden said in a serious tone.

The man suddenly laughed. His laughter added tension to my whole body.

"I don't need to tell him. He's listening and watching you."

Jayden chuckled which made me confused.

"I know." He simply answered while pointing at the man's chest.

I saw a red dotted light on his chest and I knew it was coming from somewhere.

"A sniper." Nina whispered.

Alora nodded. The girls were relaxed and I couldn't sense fear from them. Maybe because they experienced this whole scenario before. Alora met her enemy and with the help of her husband's power, they successfully dealt with them. Sophie and Nina were there and helped the couple together with their partners. They had fought with the Santelmo's and the Rossi's, not the most powerful mafia clans but two of the most well-known in the underground. I was the only one who hadn't experienced facing them since I ran away.

The man looked at his chest then to his surroundings, searching for the sniper. His face suddenly changed. I could now see that he was distracted but forced himself to focus on his task.

"You can kill me now but it wouldn't change anything. He will still attack the palace if you won't give him what he wants." He said.

"Why would he suddenly want his daughter? He never knew her. Did he suddenly want to be a responsible father? He already has three daughters, it wouldn't hurt him to just let go of Peggy." Luke finally asked.

I also wanted to know the reason. When we first met, he said that we won't be the father and daughter that I wished for. I thought he would just leave me alone after meeting him. I didn't know that it would go this far.

"I don't have the right to answer that question." The man said.

I was surprised when Jayden threw something to the man. It fell on the floor and Jayden signaled to him to pick it up and so he did. He slowly bent down and picked it up. I know it was a photo but I don't know who was in it.

The man's eyes widened and I saw him gritted his teeth in anger. His face became dark and I can sense both his rage and fear at the same time.

He then picked something inside his shirt's pocket, putting out a small device. From the looks of it, I think it was a listening device. So that's where the sniper was pointing.

He raised his left hand while holding the device and I screamed when I heard a gunshot. I was trembling and I couldn't look at Jayden's position.. I was afraid that if I looked at him, I would see the Jayden I saw back in Flousia when he fell into a coma.
