Her Tempting Nemesis Chapter Hundred Eighty-Six
CHAPTER HUNDRED EIGHTY-SIX *She.will.rip.your.heart.out*"Why...?" her voice came out like a croak of a frog on the verge of giving up its last dying breath. For the first time, Janice noticed how pale she looked. "Why did you do it, Jeff?" she forced a lump down her throat and bit her bottom lip before she continued."Khole is hurting and she wants to. make sure that Amber is doing alright."Mr Jeff remained mute.She finally whipped around and glided her curious gaze to everyone around and her gaze settled on the inspector whom she offered a smile."You must be inspector Bob that contacted me. Thank you very much for your Swift response. I sincerely appreciate it." she said nicely as she reached for a brief handshake. Then her curious gaze glided from Mr Jordan and Janice.The inspector followed her line of vision and chuckled."Oh, this are the Jordans. Kindly meet Mr Thomas Jordan and his daughter, Janice Jordan who is in the same school as your niece. She was the mastermind be

CHAPTER HUNDRED EIGHTY-SEVEN*So it's still technically a win-win situation *His lips curled up into a leery smile as he watched how enraged she was."I can't wait to see her try." He smirked.Monica scoffed with disbelief as she blinked her eyes uncontrollably."Are you freaking kidding me right now?!" Monica shrieked in anger."you feel no remorse for putting your own daughter in such a condition ?! What the hell! You are completely nuts! I don't blame Khole for leaving you! You made her life a living hell!"He chuckled maliciously and clicked his tongue in disapproval."On the contrary, Khole made my life a living hell. Her mental illness was controlling her to do insane things to our daughter like the time she nearly dig a table knife into her neck when she was barely four or so! That's why I sent her to the rejuvenation camp. She was going crazy not me! And that was particularly the main reason I commenced legal suit against her, demanding for the custody of our child."Monica s

CHAPTER HUNDRED EIGHTY-EIGHT*This man is completely hopeless!*"Finally!" Mr and Mrs Spikes exclaimed in relief as the door tugged open with a slight screech, revealing the rest of them with Mr Jeff being dragged roughly inside and forced to sit on the opposite side of the partition transparent glass facing the others.Mr. Spike's countenance suddenly morphed into a deadly resentment as his brows rose diametrically in anger."I believe that must be him right? The insufferable monster?!" he demanded, howling with a pent-up rage as he pointed his index finger at him.The inspector nodded in the affirmative."Yes. We got him and now he is here to answer all our questions so that we can finally put this whole issue behind us. I believe everyone is on the agreement we run through the interrogation process all through the night ?" he quizzed scanning the room, gliding his gaze from one person to another to ensure that they wanted it to be so in consensus.His gaze settled on Mrs Monica.

CHAPTER HUNDRED EIGHTY-NINE*to my greatest astonishment, I am silently hoping that you make it out alive....*Before the inspector could respond, Mr Spikes burst into an abrupt roaring laughter that startled everyone in the room, including Mr Jeff who quickly pressed his lips shut together and was fuming at him."you are not entitled to anything, Jeff! You will bear the consequences for everything you have done! And for hurting my daughter !!" He bawled."Amber did that, not me. How was I supposed to know what my daughter is up to every minute?! Doesn't that sound prosperous to your ears?" He countered sharply. "you should be able to relate too." He smirked at Mr Jordan at the last statement.He seethed, his spine bristling in annoyance."So are you saying that you were not responsible for the upbringing of your child?" Mr Spikes quizzed as he shifted to the edge of the chair, in irritation.Mr Jeff chuckled again and cluckedHis tongue for the umpteenth time."You have no business

CHAPTER HUNDRED NINETY *What an irredeemable monster!*Inspector Bob cleared his throat loudly and forced a smile."I just got off the phone with the doctor ..." He started.Monica's brows scrunched up together as her heart thundered aggressively against her rib cage."H-how is she?" She asked gruffly.The inspector paused before he responded.Puffing out a deep breath he licked his tongue."She's fine." A deep breath of relief traveled in the air.Monica fluttered her eyes closed as she exhaled a deep sigh of relief."Oh thank God!" she exclaimed breathlessly.Janice and the rest of the others in the room were deeply relieved at the news.Thank God she survived it!Hannah inhaled deeply and puffed out a deep breath.No matter how much she must have loathed Amber, wishing her dead was the last thing on her list. Despite all the pain and suffering she had been subjected to by the hitherto monstrous big trio, she is shocked to believe that her heart can be moved like this. At the end

CHAPTER HUNDRED NINETY-ONE *When all this is over. You are coming home with me."*"Can I see my niece now?" Monica prodded. " I really wanna see her. I haven't seen her in ages! Please !" Inspector Bob's throat worked on a swallow. He paused for a bit before he responded."Like I said, you will. Right now, why don't we focus on how we can bring this new development to the notice of the judge to be able to seek redress and thus, transfer custody to you or a loving accommodating family that is willing to adopt her.""Hmmm... Now that you mentioned it, that doesn't sound like a bad plan." Mrs Monica finally conceded.After several failed attempts to grill Mr Jeff, the inspector finally gave up and turned to face the rest of them."Well, as you can see..." He shrugged in defeat. " He ain't budging."But Mr Spikes wasn't having it. His jaw tightened as his spine bristled with rage."Playing stubborn aren't you? Do you possibly think that you can stay mute forever ?! You will pay dearly M

CHAPTER HUNDRED NINETY-TWO *"I think it was a dream ..."*What the absolute fuck is going on here?!Did Amber just run to her father with excitement gleaming in her eyes or she's going blind gradually? Hannah wondered in alarm as she turned around to see the others just as surprised as she was, especially Janice who was gawking at the scene.What the heck is going on here?Amber should be in a brewing rage and not be excited like a five-year-old child seeing her father for the first time.This is prosperous!Is she for real right now?! After everything that her father had done to her to the point that she wanted to abandon her. Janice could hardly believe her eyes right now.Amber ran to the partition of transparent glass and forced a smile at her father."Dad, you came." She said faintly.Monica gasped softly, her brows shooting up in utter confusion and shock."What are you doing Amber?! " shrieked at the top of her voice. ", Stay away from him!!!"Amber angled her head to her au

CHAPTER HUNDRED NINETY-THREE *"It was an accident..."*He chuckled, his lips curving into a scowl as if making his daughter's confessions.Monica scoffed his snort chuckles grating every fibre of her being.God! She loathes this man so much!Her sister made a terrible mistake in her life by falling in love with this insufferable monster.Truly, monsters are very good at disguising their true colours. Who would have thought that the cheerful, sweet and nice Jefferson Harvard will turn out like this? A dreadful monster?It was rather unexpected, no one expected this turnout.When her sister, Khole had initially complained of his abusive tendencies, she dismissed it and concluded that her sister might be overrating and it was not until she had come knocking at her door one lonely chilly night with a baby bump with bruises all over her face.She was extremely shocked and concerned to have seen her sister in that state and since then, she had done her best to keep an eye out on her and es

*To forever and beyond…*The day of the trial had arrived, and it felt as though the world held its breath. The courtroom was filled with journalists, spectators, and photographers positioned on all corners of the courtroom doors waiting. They were all here for the same purpose: the moment the world would witness as justice decided the fate of Mr. Jordan. In other words, the downfall of the Jordans.The courtroom was so unnervingly quiet that you could hear a pin drop as every creak of a bench and every rustle of paper lingered in the tense air.Janice Jordan sat at the front with Finn beside her. Her uncle came with some family members and they sat behind the pew. Janice’s hands trembled in her lap, fingers clasped so tightly together that her knuckles turned white. She glanced at Finn beside her, his jaw set, gaze fixed on the judge as if nothing else existed. This was heavy for him especially but at last he would witness the final judgment and hopefully get the justice his late f

*He had to bear the consequences of his actions.*Janice sat in an uneasy silence, staring out the window as the news sank in, each word settling into her mind like stones dropped into water.She could hardly believe her ears. Her father has been arrested?! This was the first time such news would reach her ears. The mighty Jordan was arrested?!"Janice? This isn't the time to space out!" Finn's voice yanked her out of her reverie. She blinked repeatedly as her brain was still processing this whole unexpected turn out of events. She gulped. "What's going to happen to him, I-I don't even know what to say. He's the only family I've got, Finn," her words barely squeak out of her lips."Unfortunately, it may be nothing good, Janice. This is the moment of truth, and justice must not only be done but it must be seen to be done." A cold shiver pricked against her skin like goosebumps. As much as she tried to ignore it, it was the hard truth. Her father had done horrible things in the pa

*Was this the end of the line for the mighty Jordan family?* "Janice, I'm so sorry you had to go through this alone, " Finn said, pulling her towards him for a long hug as he stroked her hair. Janice broke into tears, sobbing as her body shook with the weight of losing a child, a part of her that she wasn't fortunate to bring into the world. She sniffed and muffled against his chest, "I didn't mean to hide this from you, Finn. This is shocking news to me as well." "It's alright, sweetheart." He said gently as he continued to stroke her hair. Then he broke the embrace and cradled her wet face in his hand, forcing her to look at him. "Look at me, Janice," he wiped her tears with his thumb. His heart tightened seeing her like this. "I promise I will wipe the tears off your face. We can always make another one." She momentarily stopped crying and looked at him wide-eyed. "You didn't even ask if that child is yours, Finn." He chuckled and shook his head. "I didn't

Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty*The unexpected and Sad Revelation*Finn's (once Drake but will be called his real name henceforth)hammered as he paced the narrow room with the burner phone clutched tightly in his right hand and his left hand frantically raking through his sandy brown hair.Every creak of the floor, every rustle outside the window, seemed like it could be Fergus’s men clawing closer.They were running out of time.With the government closing in and Fergus’s rage nearly tangible, Finn knew their only chance was to reach out to someone who could help them disappear. His father’s old friend, Yamato—a man, both feared and revered, a former militant from Japan who had once pledged his loyalty to the family.Yamato listened in silence, his deep breaths echoing through the line. Then, without a word of question or reprimand, he simply said, “Be ready. I will take care of the arrangements.”A wave of relief coursed through Finn's body at once. His father had been right af

Chapter Three Hundred Twenty-Nine*My real name is Finn Orwells and not Drake Hughen.*He knew of one place Fergus wouldn't dare to look.The drive to his special hideout was unbearable, long, and tedious. It was a rocky path in the thick of the forest but close to a river bank. He usually came here when he needed some privacy from the Jordans and planned his next revenge move. But right now, the reverse was the case. How ironic did things turn out to be? He was literally bringing his arch enemy's daughter to his secret hideout, away from the hawk eyes of his evil brother-the person he was supposed to be working alongside.Well, things had changed. Maybe he had changed, too.But right now... he had a purpose.He glanced at the passenger's seat, where Janice was sitting quietly. Apparently, she was still shaken by everything that had unfolded. Poor woman... He had to protect her even from his own family.I'm so sorry, Mother....but I think I broke the rule.He gulped. I had fallen

*At any rate, he must save Janice.*The heel of his boots pounding in her stomach sent her to the floor, retching and wheezing with her heart in her throat, threatening to explode. A crushing pain seared through her chest. She sprawled on the ground, with her eyes shut tight, gasping for air desperately. The blindfold was restricting her vision, so she couldn't see who it was, but she could feel the extreme coldness exuding from his presence. "Let's try again, shall we, darling. And this time I won't go easy on you. I suggest you answer my questions if you want to leave here in one piece and see your asshole of a father!" the menacing raspy voice roared across the empty room. The man cocked his head to the two huge guys in black and at once they heaved her roughly to the chair and tied her hands and legs to the chair. The sound of the cocked gun jolted a shiver down her spine. He took long strides towards her and trailed the gun around her exposed chest, her buttons had come undon

*He must save Janice no matter what!*"What do you mean you haven't seen her?!" Mr Jordan bellowed through the phone, his hands trembling badly."You need to calm down, Mr Jordan. Remember, this is bad for your health. I will be at the shortly. " Matt spoke as calmly as possible through the phone."Calm down? What if something happened to her, Matt?! You were supposed to take care of her and now..." He paused, taking a sharp breath as he rubbed his temples frantically to ease the tension building up inside of me.Where on earth was his precious daughter? What could have happened to her?"Please, exercise some patience, Mr Jordan, while I wait for the construction team to help me remove my door. As I explained to you, Janice just stormed out of the house and locked me inside because she took the remote with her. She must have been in a hurry or something. I think maybe she's at her best friend's house, Hannah."Mr Jordan's eyes lit up.That may be true....who else will Janice be wi

She was super excited and relieved to see Drake coming to her rescue. Tears of relief etched at the corner of her eyes. He came for her! He must have sensed that I was in danger! But how did he know where to find me....? She pondered silently as she arched a brow at him curiously. "Drake! How did you know that I'm here?" She quizzed.He shrugged, winking at her."I just know, Janice. Now come one before Matt comes out!" He urged, waving her over.Her heart jumped at the mention of Matt. That monster! She never wants to be around him ever again! For now, she has been rescued, and she can safely go home and put this whole marriage behind her.Luckily, she has the videotape as evidence to nail Matt on the cross and call off the engagement. She rushed to the car and opened the passenger's door in the front seat and settled on it, jamming the shut quickly.For now, she will have to ask questions later."You good, Janice? I hope he didn't hurt you in there?" Drake asked, although his

*...if it wasn't Drake, then I would rather not love at all.* Damn it! Matt found out already? How did he even know about this? I thought he wasn't aware of it. What do you mean, Janice? Of course, Matt had been watching you non-stop! Only a fool wouldn't be aware of the deep connection that exists between you and Drake. At this point, I wouldn't even be surprised if the maids knew as well. The voice in her head taunted her. She bit her bottom lip frantically, trying to rein in the turbulent thoughts writhing inside of her head. She had to act cool and unbothered. Pretend as if you didn't know what he was saying, Janice. Act cool and get the hell out of here! The voice rang inside my head again like a Belfry. She sucked in several deep breaths and looked up at Matt intently, a smirk curling up her lips. "I have no idea what's you babbling about, Matt," she snapped, feigning ignorance. Matt scoffed, shaking his head. "Stop lying, Janice. It's too obvious! I'm not a
