Married by a Couple of Shots Chapter XLIX
There were no words that came out of Rossie's mouth. She and Jared stared at each other for minutes until he looked away and started their car. "You don't want to be late for work," he muttered and they drove away from her house.On the way to work, she faces her window, silently crying and thinking about what Jared had said. Does he really mean that? she asked herself. A part of her was telling her that he only said that because he is mad at her. He doesn't really mean that, does he?Jared on the other hand, secretly took a glimpse of his wife. He hears her soft sobs and sniffling and he knows it's his fault. It was hurting him to hear her cry and it pains him to see her tears but he could not help himself.That day, he was there to ask her what was going on but it was different he saw. He felt betrayed. Rossie's lips on Jake were the answer he needed. It stabbed him in the chest straight to his heart and even now, it's still bleeding. He was dying. It was the same feeling-- no, se

"Rossie?" Ria, with her eyes wide, turned to Rossie with judging eyes. It took only three seconds and she awkwardly laugh, slapping Jared's arm softly. "You're kidding! But you guessed her name right!"Jared laughed, taking a step closer to Rossie, and without permission, he kissed her which made everyone gasp from shock, even her. It was only a peck and he move a bit away whispering in her ear, "You really don't want to own me, huh?" A corner of his mouth lifted as he gazes into her eyes, his hand raised to tuck the strand of hair that fell on her face. Then he moved fully away saying, "I know her alright and wife's just kind of shy.""H-How did you two meet?" Ria was still unconvinced and the way she was glancing, narrowing her eyes at Rossie makes Rossie swallow hard. "One of our company team building. Anyway," Jared looks at everybody, "please be good to my wife and I'll see everyone around."Ria was about to say something when Jared just started walking fast, away from them. It

After her shift, Rossie was feeling like she wanted to go have some alone time to reflect on how fast things messed up. She decided she wants to go to this old shrine her family used to go to when she was still young. Although it's like thirty minutes drive, she somehow wanted to go alone.Before she leaves, she tells Ellisa about it and if ever Jared asks about her, just tell him that. Thin lines then appeared between Ellisa's eyebrows. "Why don't you go and tell him?" she asked. "Not today," Rossie answered. "He'll probably offer me a ride and people will think I'm being too clingy. I'll let them have him for now.""If you say so. I'm still finishing my pinned calls so you go take care, okay?"Rossie nodded, smiling sweetly at her best friend. "See ya!"The old shrine is a perfect place to breathe in a bit and few people go there primarily because it's a lot of stairs to climb. Sometimes there’s even no one who goes there. For her, stairs are exercise, keep her brain somehow goin

Jared waited for Rossie in his car which was parked a couple of lot away from Rossie’s home. He has been thinking about it for days yet he could not gather up the courage to ask Rossie about the photo Lucas sent him. Four days later, here he was to find out what was happening and why Rossie has been texting. He kept glancing at the upper part of his phone. She should be home anytime now, Jared thought to himself. Twenty minutes later, he sees the familiar blue car pulling over across the street and in front of Rossie’s house. From where he is, he could see the inside through the open window. It didn’t shock him to see Rossie and Jake but it has his blood boiling when it took her a little while to get off the car. Jared could not help himself just gripping with white knuckles on his steering wheel. He opened his car door and went out. Just as he was marching towards them, he stopped, feeling some concrete stuck on both his feet. For a moment, he couldn’t take a step just looking at

The longer it took for Jared to say anything, the more Rossie’s heart raced. She finally asked that one question that’s been on her mind for quite some time but she wasn’t sure if her timing is right. They’re having a good good time but that question just popped in her head. “If it’s too personal, you don’t have—““I undergone a life and death operation,” he interrupted her. “W-Why didn’t you—““I didn’t know if I could come out alive or not so I acted like an asshole so you would hate me. If I never got out alive, you would just hate and forget me.” She was still too shock to say something so he continued. “If I didn’t make it, Levius would have sent you my will. You’d be a widow… and free. But I’m here yet I feel like I should’ve just died.” “No!” She shouts at him, her brows drawn together. “You should have told me! If you did I could have been there for you! I wouldn’t have thought you chea—““Lara is the daughter of my trusted doctor and became one of my doctors too so we real

Chapter 52It has been a few days since Ellisa got back from work. The first day she was dying to talk to Rossie and she notices the bitch trying to talk to her too. The difference between them was that she's straightforward and she would let her ego down for somebody that is important to her. On the contrary, Rossie was too shy to do those. That's why she decided to just approach her best friend because she heard their co-workers talk shit and Rossie wasn't ready for that.Ellisa sighed heavily, her back thrown at the backrest as her chair swiveled. She stretches her hands and groans. Finally, it was time to go home."Happy, happy, Ellie!" someone just suddenly whispered near her ear which had her jumping from her seat. Only to find Lucas laughing at her."What the fuck, Lucas?! You scared the shit outta me.""You should have seen your face!" He continues to laugh at her. "You just made up with Rossie and she didn't wait for you?"Ellisa rolled her eyes. "You should stop sticking you

“I do,” Rossie answered. “I will, Jared.”For the first time in a while, she saw his genuine smile again. It made her aware that she can lose that if she was not careful with her decisions. She almost lost all of him.“Do you want to come over?” she asked him. It had his eyes wide for a second. “My parents sure miss you,” she added.“God seemed to answer your prayer,” he said, smiling, completely ignoring her question. He stands up and offered his palm to her.“He always does,” she muttered, taking his hand and he helped her up. “Should I bring them something?”“Just see you and they’ll be happy enough.”“Alright.”But Jared insisted on bringing some food for the Delavigne, only for them to find out, no one was home. At first, they thought it was some prank but hell it wasn’t. Rossie searched all over but couldn’t find anyone so she decided to call Primrose.“Where?” she asked her sister.“We’re staying at a resort, dad’s friend invited us. You can come too, I’ll send the location.”“

It was dawn when Jared and Rossie finished. Looks like he made her exhausted that after he kissed her forehead and said goodnight, she was already sleeping so soundly. He was tired too but not super tired that he'd just fall asleep.Staring at his wife never gets old. He knew she was telling the truth but her anger got the best of him and he became cold. Then again, she warms his heart once more. There was something about Rossie that makes him tear down his walls and dive into her."I love you," he whispered, leaning in to kiss her forehead before he sleeps.The next day, both of them woke up late around one in the afternoon and they can already hear some noises in the house. Guess the family was back. They were thankful nobody decided to open up Rossie's door or they'll see them sleep together, some parts of their body not covered by the blanket."Still sleepy?" Rossie asked Jared when he lay still. "If you want I'll just get you breakfast.""No. I'll dress up in a bit too. I was jus

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.

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
