The Kidnapped Bride

It was still daylight, with everyone doing their personal activities.

However, then her watch blinked twice before she carried her clutch and started to move in the direction of the mall.

As her eyes were still very much narrowed, she couldn’t help but take a deep sigh.

Walking inside the mall after doing all the security formalities, Jennifer had walked towards the elevator to stand there and wait for her turn.

On the spot, another old lady appeared beside her. Looking at the lady from the corner of her eyes, Jennifer caught her sight before she waited until the elevator opened.

However, rather than entering, she felt the lady get inside and waited for the empty elevator to come to her floor.

.....

Fortunately, when the next door opened, instead of pressing the button on the upper floors, Jennifer had pressed the basement where there was a parking lot.

Keeping her lips sealed, Jennifer waited, and then she was brought under the parking lot of the mall.

Tugging her purse close to her body, Jennifer walked inside among the number of cars.

Yet, her legs were simply talking her in a certain direction where she finally found a black car parked near the pole numbered, ‘H31′

As Jennifer calmed her heart, she took a peek at her surroundings to find herself alone.

And without any further delay, Jennifer had rushed to open the door of the passenger seat of the car and closed it.

Averting her head in the other direction, she saw Jack sitting there while surfing his phone, “Do you have the signed documents now?”

Jack didn’t respond to her question. He simply brought the yellow envelope in front of her and handed it over to her.

As her eyes searched, Jennifer had opened and tore it to look at the documents and read the content inside.

Similarly, a giant smile had traced her lips before she asked, “So..are these authorized now?”

“Yes. Just one thing is left and that is to drop this bomb on Lucas’s head and... on grandfather Smith.” Jack replied to which Jennifer smiled, “But..these are simply the half. What about the rest of them..?”

“They are maximum what he holds. Rest is with his mother and we can’t get it until she is forced. However, they are still almost negligible since the majority position was of Lucas.”

“So we can... drop this one on his head?’ Jennifer’s excitement level was reaching its peak.

As her eyes showed with a mysterious glint, Jack noted the same to pass her nod, “We can but I would advise you not to.”

A confusional look was plastered on Jennifer’s face as she couldn’t understand the motive behind his words.

Seeming to find it all absolute nonsense, Jennifer shook her head, “Why shouldn’t we just complete this..”

“We will do this when Lucas will be at his lowest...and that is yet to come for now.” At this stage, Jack had simply replied without caring much.

And Jennifer knew perfectly that getting insight was almost impossible in her eyes.

As her lips were once again sealed, not straight, she lowered her eyes.

“Did you contact Javier..or someone from the Johnson family?” She had been curious to learn ever since so long that it has been eating her up.

Unfortunately, there was a negative response from his side, “He is hidden very well. We don’t know if he is fine or not.”

“But how is that possible? He can’t simply go and vanish like this into thin air!” It made no sense.

Absolutely nothing...all appeared to be bulshit in front of her eyes. All this was everyone and the word was making a fool out of her.

Yet Jack had no answers to her questions.

It frustrated her, and Jennifer’s annoyed face was already filled with immense hatred.

And without thinking twice, Jennifer had opened the door after the car to step out and walk away.

Her mind was getting mixed with a dozen or so thoughts and it was hard to get out of any of them at this stage.

But to avoid these circumstances, Jennifer’s mind was constantly revolving around the time she had spent with Javier..

‘Where the hell are you Javier? Why are you so angry at me?’ she can’t help but her heart had been put together.

Lowering her eyes, Jennifer somehow made her way to come back to the elevator. There, she had stepped inside to press the floor number.

But then, the elevator that topped the parking lot itself and then another man entered.

He had passed her a sweet smile, which Jennifer did not respond to due to her memory lane in which she was absorbed.

He had come to stand behind her, and Jennifer had to keep her eyes low. The elevator’s doors were closed, before the man behind her asked, “Miss Jennifer...”

“Hmmm?” as the realization struck her, Jennifer’s eyes widened before she reacted to turn around, “How do you know my name?”

“Sir wants to meet you.” the man told her with a giant smile. However, the smile was tugging at her heart, “W-who....is..your sir?”

“You will know very soon.” and with this, the man had brought the mask out from his pocket which he wore without the delay.

At the same time, the uncertain gas was injected into the entire elevator where Jenifer was left with no other option but to find her heart almost jumping.

The smoke had started to spread in the place, getting it heavier for her to breathe.

“Co-cough. you..bastard..who..are you....”

But to her dismay....Jennifer’s eyes and senses went numb to everything when she inhaled the gas...and there was all darkness that followed...
