Jacob quickly reached out for Freya's hand when he saw Rhea looking at him. "Now, our target will move to follow us," Jacob whispered. "What do you mean? Jackson saw us?" asked Freya. "No, but one of his companions saw me at the table. And this time, I know he's looking for us," Jacob replied. Freya let go of Jacob's hand. She stopped walking so Jacob stopped walking too. They both looked at each other. "Why should we hide from Jackson? Didn't we come here to talk to him?" Freya asked, wryly. Jacob took a deep breath. "We're not running to hide from him," he said. Freya raised an eyebrow. "We're running to take him somewhere else. There are too many people here, my wife. It's not safe to confront someone in front of those filthy rich people," said Jacob. He held Freya's hand again but his wife immediately released his grip. "You will not face him, Jacob. You just need to take him to me," Freya said. "What? Are you out of your mind? Don't you still know what my brother can do
"F-Freya?" Jackson said in disbelief. He immediately approached her and supported her. "W-What happened to you? W-Why is your face covered in bruises? Who did this to you?" he asked one after another. "H-help me, J-Jackson," Freya whispered. She acted weak. She looked Jackson in the eye. She gently looked at his hand holding her head. She held it and squeezed it. "Who did this to you?" Jackson asked. His eyes were full of concern. "Jacob. He hurt me when he found out that I escaped him because I wanted to see you," Freya answered directly. Jackson smirked. "I couldn't believe that my brother would do that to you," he said while clenching his fists. "I just ran away from him to talk to you. I was the one in the car that followed you earlier. I really want to talk to you, Jackson." Freya tried to stand up while acting like her body hurt. Jackson quickly supported her. "So, Jacob was looking for you earlier?" Jackson sighed. "Why do you want to talk to me? I heard you married him. I
Jacob quickly took his wife in the arms of his brother Jackson. His eyes were burning like hell. He couldn't bear to see the two hug each other. He knows that his wife will reprimand him after what he did but who cares? He will not wait for the lips of the two to touch before he comes out of his hiding place. "Jacob, what are you doing?" Freya whispered cautiously as she looked at the disappointed Jackson. She's not done yet. She is not yet satisfied with what she did to have Jackson's sympathy. She couldn't believe that Jacob's patience was too short. It ruined a good opportunity. "I just did what a husband should do when he sees a snake lurking around his wife," Jacob whispered. The tone of his speech was mixed with annoyance. "What's the fuss about, my dear brother?" Jackson said while poking his nose. "I thought, you are living happily with Ivana under the same roof. I was surprised that you married the wrong woman." He clenched his jaw. "You are too updated with my life MY DEA
"Set, how are you? Do you have any news about the siblings?" "Sir Jacob is still missing, senior. I still don't even see his shadow in the mansion and inside your companies," Set quickly responded. He was surprised when Don Vandolf suddenly stood up from his wheelchair. "Are you able to walk, senior?" Don Vandolf laughed loudly. "I thought you already knew," he said while stretching. He opened the window and enjoyed the light from the sun. "Senior, why did you let Sir Jacob escape? Why did you listen to Sir Jackson to block all of Sir Jacob's credit cards and freeze all of his bank accounts? Is that your punishment for his negligence? " Set asked with a frown. "Three months, Set. I only have three months to figure out and to set everything. I agreed to Jackson's wishes because it is true that his brother has been careless since Yael disappeared," Don Vandolf answered. "Speaking of Yael, senior, are you still investigating what happened to him?" Set heard something important about
"Ivana, did you hear the news?" "What is it again?" "That Jacob and Freya are married. Don't tell me…” said Joana, Ivana's oldest sister. “Good for them.” Ivana drinks her smoothie while she's browsing on her phone. “Good for them? I thought you love Jacob? Is that just the way it is? Are you going to give up now?” Joana laughed. "Sister, what am I against destiny? What do you want me to do? Squat down and cry out loud here? I am going to make a scandàl here if I act that way, right?” Ivana stood up and fixed her clothes. "Jacob deserves to be happy. He also appreciated me for a few years because of my lies. I don't want to chase after men anymore." "So how do you plan to take revenge on the Grays?" Joana asked seriously. Ivana flipped her hair. "Someone will do it for me," she said. Both of Joana's eyebrows rose as she drank the root beer she was holding. "And what kind of angel would do that for you, anyway?" Ivana smiled. "My soon to be BEST FRIEND." "Who?" Joana asked Iva
"PAPA! YOU KNOW THAT I CAN'T DO THAT!" Jackson shouted loudly, which caught the attention of Set, who was now packing Don Vandolf's belongings. "Then do not expect me to do what you requested of me earlier," Don Vandolf said seriously while putting on his hat. "I can do whatever you want! I can even close any business deal papa… just! Just don't ask me to give up my throne to Jacob. It is too unfair! You are asking too much in return!" Jackson complained as he massaged his forehead. "Unfair? When have I been unfair to you, Jack? I am just asking for the same thing. Do you know that you are going to make me look ridiculous for what you want me to do?" Don Vandolf said in annoyance. "What's funny about that, papa? You are just going to give back all the things you took back from Jacob like the bank accounts, credit cards and his positions in our companies. Isn't it hard? Common, papa!" Jackson insisted. "Where did your common sense go, Jackson? Have you been so blinded by your love
Jackson quickly loosened his necktie when he got home to his condo. He felt like he was suffocating when he was talking to his papa. He still could not believe that he had not given it to him. "Damn it!" Jackson shouted while throwing his necktie on the sofa. Jackson quickly walked to the kitchen and immediately grabbed a bottle of Smirnoff. He gasped for breath when he drank all of the beer. He threw the bottle in the trash and went to the sink to wash his face. "Papa is acting weird," Jackson said as he tilted his head. He looked at himself in the mirror. "All of a sudden, he mentioned Yael in our conversation earlier. Could it be?" He raised an eyebrow. "Couldn't papa already know something?" Jackson shook his head and wet his face with water again. "Maybe it's just a coincidence because if he knew something, I would not be here now," he chastised himself. Jackson walked towards the bathroom. He took off all his body coverings. He also stared at his image in the mirror for a fe
"Grandma, why hasn't mom come back yet?" He calls his grandmother's younger sister mother. "She still has to work, grandson. I am sorry. If grandma could work, I would have left so you could be with your mother," the old woman replied. The boy ran and hugged his grandmother. "You do not need to feel sorry, grandma. I am even grateful to you because you are there to take care of me," he said. The old woman smiled and kissed the boy on his forehead. "And grandma is also grateful because I had a grandson with a good heart and a lot of wisdom. You are the best! By the way, your birthday is coming soon, grandson. What do you want for a present?" "The whole family, grandma. I want to meet my real parents...my father and mother even though they left me where you saw me when I was little. I feel that my whole being will be completed when I see their faces...when I meet them. I want to experience having a mother and father. Where are they now? I want to ask them so many questions when I mee
