âSo, was it all for money?â Jennifer sneered at his words but Lucas didnât gave her any glance on this, âI planned to get what I wanted. You already know about this now.â
âBut Iâm still curious.You wanted to make me sign the documents but have you thought that I would have let you go so easily once you transfer all my properties under your name? If I was in that position, I would have the same share in your properties and this will ultimately make it impossible for you to divorce me. So, what had you panned to solve this issue?â
Knowing how technically Lucas thinks and how far sighted he is, she was very much sure he will not think it as a cake walk. In fact, his brain runs via thousands of directions and this thought must have struck his mind. Right now, Jennifer folded her hands in front of her body when she stared at Lucas whose glares wereât less then threatening.
âI had planned to dispose you.â was the simple words he gave to her but Jennifer hoped for more, âExplain, Mr. Smith.â
âI planned to kill you once your property comes under my name. There was no way I would have you let you survive because there were very high chances that you will seek share in my property after divorce.â Lucas didnât hesitate to reply back on her face and this made Jenniferâs blood turn cold.
In the middle of their conversation, she wouldnât turn down the possibility that there was hints in her heart which guessed it right. Moreover her instincts told her that he must have thought of some more unethical way to deal with her if the situation was to arise.
Indeed, she was grateful that she didnât marry him. For the very first time, Jenifer was glad she got kidnapped by Javier on her wedding day. Otherwise, her life would have turned out to be horrible in the hands of this criminal.
.....
However, her calmness was in total contract with how Javier felt after hearing Lucasâs words. His mind wandered and he snapped out of his daze. âYOU bastard!â Javier walked to Lucas and threw a hard punch across Lucasâs face. A wound appeared on the manâs cheek which turned purple and blue
âYou wanted to kill my wife?! All you know is it to kill..Let Me remind you how it feels to be a killed now..â
âJAVIER!â Jenniferâs yelled his name to bring him out of his fury. At the same time, Jennifer turned her face and casted a look to Ellen. He understood and stepped up and helped her to tackle Javier as both of the pull him away from Lucas. Jennifer already noted his face that turned red from anger. She sensed that it was impossible to keep a control over Javierâs anger and this sent her hints about time restraints in her hand.
As Jenifer looked at Lucas,she asked, âWho are my parents then?â
Jennifer didnât receive any answer from Lucas and this made her furious too. She used her leg to kick the man in his private area which gained a loud yell from the man, âOH F+UCK â His eyes widened as the sudden break turned his mind upside down. The sharp kick almost rebounded from breaking down so far and the arrogance slipped down from his face.
On witnessing him going through such a pain brought a wide smirk on Jenniferâs face. But her cold attitude dindât vanish instantly âYou are telling me, who are my parents? tell me. Who is the King and which kingdomâs princess am I?â
âI-I...I..Donât know at all...â he coughed blood out his mouth on the floor before lifting his face one again, âI really donât know...it is your parents who were involved in kidnapping you as a child. They know who you are. All I know is that you arenât their daughter and not a Taylor either. In fact...I..found out about your past through your parents....'â
Hearing this, Jenniferâs eyes narrowed, âHow does Amelia and David Taylor occupied in this?â
âThey were the ones who sent your wedding proposal at my house and told us. We-we had no idea, but I secretly checked your information to find your heritage and property under your name so I agreed..â Lucas wasnât telling a lie and Jennifer could easily predict that.
She glanced at his face which was at the edge of fainting due to the weakness that curled under his skin. The smug on his face ripped out and was replaced with hope and restlessness. He was totally alone at this point, pleading for some mercy to behold on his head.
However, before Jennifer could proceeded to ask,she heard the soft sigh from Javier. He broke free from Ellenâs grip as his eyes were burning with fire which were ready to gulp Lucas at any moment, âWho has ruby right now, Lucas?â
Lucas didnât answer immediately until Javier haunted him again, âI-I donât have it. Y-Your father has the one...â
Jennifer didnât try to shed light on the Johnsonâs private matter. She was done questioning, as she guessed that there are very less chances to extract much information from the man in one of her. In fact he didnât seem to budge from his words despite experiencing a blow on his body. He was stubborn but that didnât mean he lied.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yet when Jennifer was standing in the series of her daze, Lucas shifted his attention on her as his face appeared to be absolutely lacking any soul. But his next words were a bit alarming for her as she heard.
âYour parents have something to do with your disappearance as a kid and your past. Ask them..they know everything about you, no me.â
