Married by a Couple of Shots Chapter LXV
"Two of our men were shot," Levius informed Jared who was lazily looking at the pendulum on his desk swinging. He sighs heavily. The guy has been like that since this morning. "What the heck is wrong with you today? No energy to fight for your life or... you're blaming your ancestors who made this stupid tradition?"Jared sits up straight, his face plasters the same bored expression on it. Ah, he misses Rossie so much. It's been two days and he has not seen his wife yet. He can't even leave this office because assassins are on the lookout for him. "I have this immense tingle that I am now a prisoner at my own office. What infuriates me is that everyone is keeping me at bay.""Let me remind you, young master, that you personally said you don't want to kill anybody," Levius muttered. Jared was about to interrupt when he raised a finger, stopping the young master. "You said it's not very human to kill and your wife will hate you."Defeated, Jared closes his mouth, bends over, rests his

Levius and Jared finally arrived safely in the mansion after two days of being held captive in their offices. They rushed inside the house and frowned when there was no one in the sitting rooms. "Where are the ladies?" Jared asked one of the maids who was dusting some vases. "Th-There at the s-shooting--""Thank you," he cut her off, storming his way to the shooting range which Levius followed. When the ladies were visible, they slowed down, fixing their clothes and raking their hair smoothly to create that hot effect where some strands of their hair fall down their forehead. But the moment they got closer, their brows drew together into a frown. From the looks of it, the ladies seem to enjoy their practice, laughing together with the ones assisting them. It made Jared scoff. He recognizes the man with Rossie, Harry. He was with his training for defense. Harry was older than him, around the age of Levius probably. Levius, on the other hand, has his dull eyes on Ellisa smiling br

They've been staring at each other for more than a minute. Ellisa stayed, quiet looking away. She doesn't know what to say or how to react to that. Levius knew and for her not to get hurt, he pretended that it doesn't matter."You should have told me," she finally said, swallowing hard after. "It's not nice to talk about here. I don't want Rossie to think that I'm not okay.""You're not okay," Levius stated. "Let's talk about it now and fix it. I can't stand you giving me the shortest reply every time I ask you something.""Is that so," she said quietly, looking at him with glossy eyes. No matter how much she tries to avoid it, that night happened, and that conversation was talked about. Ellisa knows Veronica's reply and it's time to ask Levius. "Do you have feelings for Veronica?" Before he answers, he inhaled deeply, exhaling it the next second while looking away. "I can't have feelings for her.""That doesn't answer my question, Levius!" she shouts. It could have gathered some at

Dinner was not the same for Ellisa anymore. It made her feel like she was an outcast-- like she doesn't belong in this family and it was slowly turning her guts inside. The more she observes, the more she becomes aware that maybe if she wasn't talkative and she didn't try fitting in on her first visit here, maybe she would've wanted to go home too. How blind she was.For now, she won't make any move to get away from this mansion but the moment the succession is finished, she will definitely exit this family. She took a glimpse of Veronica, sipping what seems to be champagne and smiling devilishly with the family. Hatred flashed Ellisa's eyes.Any moment now, she thought. The dinner will be over any moment now.When it did, Ellisa was quick to excuse herself, faking her smiles and lying that she was tired again from the shooting practice. But Levius knew too well."She's been resting early," Catherine said with furrowed brows. "Is she alright, Levius?""Ellisa wants to go home." He smi

It wasn't long when the men were gathered again to talk about the preparation for the succession. Now, Ellisa could breathe fine again, allowing herself to stand her guard down and her face softens. She could never do that when Levius is around. No matter how much she wants to be better and communicate with Levius, when she looks at him, she ends up scowling."Ugh," she groans as she sits up on a huge bed alone. She misses going to work and just fixing other people's problems. This relationship is impossible to fix when she can't even smile at Levius. He's nowhere and she missed her chance of making up.*Rossie just woke up and she felt really sick all of a sudden. Her head was pounding and she feels like vomiting, feeling cold. She couldn't understand what she was feeling. Why now when Jared left too early? She's too weak to stand up. She was ready to give up on someone helping her when she here's a knock on the door, her name being called after. Ellisa! she wanted to shout but no

"So, how was your visit," the old man asked. "It was not for the stupid Jared. It was for his wife," Lara answered her father who then gave her a kind of look that annoyed her. She just rolls her eyes at it. "On second thought, that lady is fierce and her eyes were burning when I told her what to do.""I see. We should not concern ourselves with that family. That boy helped us and we'll help them when they are in need.""The lady needs me," Lara said, recalling the face Rossie had made. It made her giggle. "The lady is adorable, old man.""Eh?" The old man raised his brows at her. "Don't you dare involve yourself with that lady, Lara. You can't possibly stand a chance against the young master.""Who knows," she giggled.*"We should tell Jared about the news!" Catherine sang across the room. Rossie hates to cut their happy moment but she needs to be the one to tell Jared. Also, she has not even decided if she wanted to tell Jared yet. "I think we should not," Rossie spoke and as ex

Amidst their situation, Prim had started schooling again with Keille. Surprisingly enough, everyone seems to be moving out of Keille's way. They were either afraid of him or respected him too much that they just gawked and gossiped at one corner. Just what school is this? Can she really fit in? "It's a little annoying but just ignore them," Keille told her. "If you want, you can hold my hand.""Don't worry, I am fine." She beams at him but inside she would really like to hold his hand. The fact that Keille was popular in this school, she didn't want her schoolmates to think of it wrong. "They seemed to respect him so much," she mumbles. "Not me but my name." Prim glances at Keille with round eyes and he was just smiling. She never thought that he would hear that but he did. She's quite red in the face now. He makes her feel safe but she knows it won't last long as they were in separate classes and Keille was just walking her there."I'll be in class A so that one over there," Keil

"No! Why would you think that?" Rossie giggles, trying her best to put on the big smile that makes her eyes gone. "You look worried and pale," Jared replies. The way he is gazing at her makes her inside warm and safe. Jared really calms her down and she beams at him; a genuine one."I am fine, baby. I've been just so worried that you weren't here."It wasn't a lie though. She's really terrified of the situation they are in especially now that she finds out she's pregnant. Lara doesn't need to confirm it. This morning sickness is the only thing she needs and the fact that her period isn't around just proves it more. Jared can't know about it yet. She doesn't want him to worry."Well, I'll be here for the rest of the preparation," he stated, sending Rossie to frown a little. Did she hear him right? "So, I'll be spending my time with you." "Tha-That's fantastic!" She stammers, her genuine smile turned to a forced one. It's not that she's not happy, she's just worried that she'll wake u

Lara was summoned to the Corporal's house to check on Rossie. She just got the call and she immediately went. It has been a while since they saw each other and she heard that she has been kidnapped. And now she stands next to the Corporals waiting for Rossie to arrive with Jared and the others.The moment they see the cars, they all felt relieved and when they were finally in front and the doors opened, revealing those who went, the ladies cried. But what alarmed them was the fact that Rossie was unconscious, looking all pale, and worry was written all over Jared's face.Jared was assisted in getting the doors and they followed to the nearest room. Lara's kit was already there, and every apparatus she needed was ready in the nearest bedroom. Then she asked everyone out because she was also going to clean Rossie.When she was finally alone, she did her things and checked Rossie. The lady has weakened quite fast so she needed to insert some IV tubes because she was also dehydrated. She

Now that they had the exact location, Jared deactivated his live status and everything about the Corporal completely shut off, allowing no one to track whether his ranking remained or was replaced. He knew it was going to create a commotion but that is what he is trying to do. While they are on their way to the old rest house, Veronica finds herself decoding these codes from she knows who, Mister Sparacinos himself. He is trying to set a date and solicit half of the Corporal's property for Rossie. Veronica would do that if there were no other choice but they found and alternative and the men were already on their way to where he is. It's only a matter of time before all of this will be over. So she does her part and Keille too was helping her. They're hoping that if everything goes as planned, by tomorrow they will be able to hug Rossie again. If she had permission, she would've gone with them. It's different when she holds a gun, she could be useful but she rampages so nobody trus

In somewhere dark and stinky, Rossie and Kenneth were thrown by Garry's men into what seemed to be an attic of an old resthouse. It was full of dust and cobwebs. Unlike the room Derek got for her, this one has no light, no nothing and she was thankful the moon started to show and gave a little bit of moonlight. They have been in that car, traveling for so long and she feels thirsty. She was thankful Kenneth stayed by her side. At least she has company.She was so startled when her door flung open and then these big men came to get her. Kenneth barked and even tried biting one of them but he failed because he was so little they just tossed him. She had to cover him up and not let go of him. That's when Garry came and she knew he was a devil. They dragged them out of that mansion and into a car. No, here she is in wherever this place may be. "Don't worry, Kenneth." She pets the puppy who sleeps in her lap. "We'll be rescued and you'll return to Derek and I'll return home."It didn't

Papers on his desk, cold coffee on his side, Jared had fallen asleep on his desk again. He was so tired from trying to gain access to a blueprint of the Sparacinos' mansion. Spending hours staring at the screen had his eyes drooping and hurting so he was going to take a break and he fell into slumber.Now a knock on his door was disrupting his sleep and he groans, moving his arms and lifting his head. Ugh! His neck is stiff and he moved it side by side, groaning again. He hopes whoever comes inside has some good reason to wake him up."Come in," he said. The door flung open, revealing a breathless Keille. This kid was always so chill but who chase him that he's catching his breath?"I need to talk to you," Keille uttered. "You sound like some predator was chasing you," he remarks. "I went to the Sparacinos mansion and spoke with Rossie." Instantly Jared's eyes widened. Keille did something that reckless and he's in front of him unscathed. Jared was still shocked when Keille continu

From the second-floor terrace down to the long staircase and endless halls before the main doors, Veronica ran, breathless when she was outside. She just saw Keille driving a car and with unprecedented speed drove away from their mansion. She knows that Keille was not happy Rossie was still not rescued and he has been crept up by guilt. Raking her fingers through her hair, she could've done better. Early in the morning and they could lose another family member. What is Keille thinking?*It was so early in the morning but Keille couldn't wait anymore. He has been hearing Primrose cry for her sister and every time he sees her, his heart breaks. It is careless to just go straight into the Sparacinos' mansion but he could not think of any better way to do so. It doesn't matter if he gets shot. He deserves to be shot.The drive to the enemy's lair is an hour and a half drive but Keille got there in fifty with him accelerating every opportunity he could. It was like playing his game, only

Three days had passed and Jared still could not locate where they are hiding Rossie. They have infiltrated most of the Sparacinos' properties but there was still no sign of his wife. Soon enough they'll only have one choice but to check on their main mansion. The only problem is it was heavily guarded. It would be like two kingdoms going to war.He knows he is going to win it but there would be a lot of lives that can be lost. Their business affairs will be affected as well. It was only him, he would go and won't care for his life but he has to be practical too. He needs to carefully think this out. Rossie would need him alive.A loud knocking on his door interrupted Jared's thoughts, making him blink and back to reality. He coughs and composed his posture. "Come in," he said.When the image of Harry came in, Jared immediately stand up. This man was leading the search so his coming in would have some news."Young master." Harry bowed his head for a second and raise up. "We have search

Child? Keille asked in her mind. Rossie is pregnant? She has to go through all of these because of him. Whatever it is that he was feeling right now. Guilt or conscience? It was eating Keille. If he didn't help and agreed about the fake kidnapping, they would not move here, and Prim won't have to cry. "I have to do something," he mumbles to himself. Keille doesn't seem like it but he has a collection of useful spy tools. He has also learned how to lockpicks. He has been interested in it since he loves playing games. It's a fact that a game's situation is different from reality but the difference is not that far. He just has to remember that he won't respawn.Once he gets home, he'll find Rossie himself to make it up for agreeing to that plan, for Rossie being captured, and for Prim's cries. He just hopes that Rossie is still alive.*"How much longer until we can get out and look for dear Rossie?" Miriam cries again, wiping only the corners of her eyes with a silly handkerchief. "Oh

Everyone saw Jared drag Stephanie inside and saw worry written all over his face. Even mister Montreal was shocked to see them together. When he was out of his auto-pilot mind, he told everyone to stay inside while telling the men that they were holding a meeting.In Gerald's office, they gathered. Everyone was intrigued, their faces itching to know what was up with Jared."Mister Montreal, did you somehow have a fight with someone? Is there a bounty on your head?" Jared was always straightforward with anything especially now that he know someone was coming for them."No. I don't think there is someone after us nor did I do wrong to anyone," Gerald answered. "What is all of this, Jared?""Is someone after your daughter?""No. There is no one with that we had an argument for many years now.""Then why was someone aiming at her earlier?""Someone is here?" Both Levius and William asked in chorus. Gerald now worries and like Jared's reaction earlier anger crossed their faces."Do you hav
