"What about you 001? Are you ready to attack Jaxter?" asked Hanry looking at the leader who made them what they are.Laken took a deep breath. "I met with Jaxter yesterday and I asked him directly. But Jaxter didn't want to do it and also he is ready to face anyone who wants to oppose him. He's waiting at his base. Whoever it is. But I know how Jaxter is, he always has a move that is far ahead of everyone and unexpected. Even if we could incapacitate him and take 004 out of his hands. It wouldn't be worth risking our family. Therefore, I've already directly told her I'm not interfering with this.""You just said it like that? You are our leader!" Benedict immediately frowned. How could their 001 do this?"Only someone who has never met a Jaxter in person could still speak arrogantly about him. I've been in his group for two years, and I still can't even look him in the eye." Lander visibly shook his head. 002 These guys were indeed too arrogant at times. "Yes! If you want to try it, g
"How could you..." said Benedict who was immediately surprised to see a red dot running from below towards his chest. Right where his heart was. Not only him, but also his two friends.They all of course immediately looked shocked and stiffened again. Moreover, the man began to approach them and even walked up the stairs and immediately raised his hand, and instantly the red dot that was usually on the weapons disappeared from their chests. The three of them saw Jaxter's face which was flat and even unreadable."You can't kill us here." Benedict tried to gather his remaining courage. Hanry and Jack themselves were already finding it hard to even breathe because of the tension that this man had somehow spread just like that."Calm down." Jaxter brushed Benedict's shoulders, which were trembling. "I'm not a man without manners. Let's settle it wherever you want." Jaxter looked at the man who stood two steps taller than him.Benedict swallowed hard. "In the boxing ring. We'll fight one-o
"I heard you guys wanted to negotiate with me?" asked Jaxter who looked at the two people sitting in front of him. Two of them just stood there tense at this encounter. They did not expect this man to be alone with his assistant facing the four of them."Yes, I'm sure you know what I'm here for?" asked the team leader, Langston.Jaxter nodded slowly. "You know, here, we never negotiate.""We know about that Mr. Jaxter, but right now you're holding two people we've been after all along. And, if you insist on holding them or even punishing them in your way. You will become the number one enemy of law enforcement in this country." Declon, the man sent directly from the FBI to accompany the CIA, had to carry out his task of negotiating peacefully. Of course they hoped that would be the end of it.Jaxter glanced at Bram who without a word, as if connected to his master, nodded slowly. Pressing something instantly made the wall -which they thought was just an ordinary wall- behind Jaxter in
"Hayle." Jaxter's voice sounded pleading because his wife was being indifferent to him. "Don't behave like this.""Behave how?" snapped Hayle by narrowing her eyes at the figure she had missed for the past two days. So much so, that she was annoyed.Jaxter took a deep breath and tried to approach his wife who immediately refused. No! This time Hayle did not want to act as easily seduced as usual. Somehow even though she should have felt like she should have been kind to this man because when he came home, Hayle could see the tired look on his face.However, once again, somehow her heart was unwilling. As if she really wanted to teach her husband a lesson."Ah! Let go! You can't hug me! I don't want to be hugged! Jaxter! I'm upset with you! Let go!" said Hayle who struggled when the man hugged her from behind. There was a sense of wanting to continue to be hugged, but the other side of her resentment was still piled up to make her not want to be approached by this man. However, the man
"I'll do it. Are you okay?" Asked Jaxter looking at his wife who was now sleeping on her left side. The best position for pregnant women.Hayle was silent for a moment. "Just do it. I don't have anything to do with him anymore." She then turned her body momentarily towards Jaxter. "But I'd prefer it if you didn't finish him off with your own hands.""Who do you want to do it?" Jaxter wrinkled his forehead. It was something he rarely did. Perhaps that was why his face still looked youthful, without wrinkles."I don't know, just not with your hands." Hayle scratched her husband's cheek."Do you want to see her again?" Jaxter caught his wife's warm and delicate hand.Hayle narrowed her eyes and looked at Jaxter deeply. "You're testing me, aren't you?""No." Jaxter was silent for a moment. "If you want to see her one last time, I'll allow it. I'll get rid of her anyway." Jaxter thought he was afraid Hayle would feel guilty about this."I'll think about it. I don't want to see her for now.
"Is it my turn?" the voice sounded quite weak and small. Lucas looked at Jaxter who came and squatted in front of him. Again, he was only a few inches away but he couldn't reach him.Jaxter just didn't move. Staring at the man with pale lips that trembled slightly. His eyes did not sparkle, the entirety of the man's face looked as if it was devoid of blood. Perhaps it was because he had been submerged by water up to his chest.The punishment seemed light, but in fact it was very draining, and even the organs began to suffer damage. That's why this kind of punishment cannot be taken lightly."Hayle said that she wants me not to execute you with my own hands. So... I'm considering it." Jaxter looked at the man who was bowing in front of him. He was limp.But hearing that name, he seemed to smile slightly sweetly. The woman was still thinking about him."She's still asking you to do that to me?" asked Lucas inexplicably feeling that it was a concern for him from the woman who had been cl
"How's he doing?" asked Jaxter through a phone call to Bram who was still at the base. Authorized to guard the man's execution."Still holding on Sir. But it looks like he's not doing well and he's starting to lose consciousness," came the immediate reply."Can you still give him adrenaline? I still want to hear his moans." Jaxter narrowed his eyes. It was too easy for that Lucas to die from a day of torture like this."We'll give it a try sir."The man immediately turned off his cell phone with a flat face looking at the cityscape in his condo. What was going through his mind, only he knew."Honey? Let's eat!"The voice made Jaxter who had been looking so flat and cold immediately change his face. As he turned around to see his wife and son already at the dining table, his face softened."Is there anything important?" asked Hayle. Seeing at first glance how the husband was doing on the phone. "No. Nothing important. Nothing important." Jaxter looked at his lunch. Some were made by hi
"Sorry, sir! I couldn't make it last. He died last night. The adrenaline and everything couldn't bring him back to life. I'm sorry sir." Bram looked very guilty because he could only make Lucas survive for 2.5 days in this torture. Of course he felt this was very short for torture when Jaxter really wanted to make this man feel his punishment for as long as possible.Jaxter looked at the two bodies that were now lying stiff in front of him. Chelsea with a stiff, pale, blue body with a crushed neck and congealed blood. They placed her in a special freezer to prevent her body from decomposing.Lucas, on the other hand, looked quite fresh despite looking quite pale and stiff. There were many scratches from the sharp claws of the animals, and there were even some parts that looked torn apart, there was a large hole in his left abdomen which indicated that one of the animals had managed to tear the wall of his abdomen, probably for cover, apparently made by a rat. The blisters also made his
"How was it?" asked Hayle approaching her husband. Seeing Jacob only gave her a faint smile. Of course it made Hayle very curious. How did the man meet his wife.Actually Hayle really wanted to witness it. But, she had her own business to take care of Zave's lecture that she had promised a few weeks ago. Therefore, she could not cancel this."They just talked for a while." Jaxter answered his wife's curiosity."And then? What did they talk about? Did they talk about bringing Rui?" Hayle with a very curious face.There was actually one thing that made Hayle a little worried about all this. They were going to take Rui and keep the two of them apart. Because after all Hayle -she knew this was very selfish- had taken care of and loved Rui with all her heart."I don't know what they're talking about. I wasn't inside with them.""Ha?" Hayle wrinkled her forehead with an incredulous face. "Why aren't you even with them. I want to know what they're talking about." Hayle was really upset why e
"You put her in the Isolation room?" Jacob asked with a deep frown on his face."It's better to keep her from escaping. There are many things that will happen if she gets out of here. I don't think I need to explain, do I?" Jaxter seemed to just stare straight at the hallway that would lead them to a room that was quite secluded there.Jacob played with his lips. He slowly walked, fortunately Jaxter was understanding enough to match his pace."Thank you for hosting her here." Jacob lifted the corner of his lips before glancing at the man whose facial water had not even changed. "I know that you intentionally put her here for her own good too. You must know that her enemies are everywhere. Even my family is after her.""I just wanted to fulfill my wife's wish. To live in peace." Jaxter didn't seem to care what Jacob said. They stood in front of the steel door that was tightly closed."You can imprison him anywhere. Maybe underground, in a secluded place. You could have even just elimin
"Rui a lot of things happened before you were born. Both your adoptive family and your biological family. We may not be able to be like most parents. Our previous lives will leave you dumbfounded. But, you don't have to think about what happened before you were born. I just want to say, whatever ever happened to me, I will do it again as long as I can get a daughter like you." Jacob held the princess's hand very tightly. Staring at her hazel nets that looked so beautiful and drowning."I knew you would ask about what happened to your real mother." Jacob pursed his lips. He took a deep breath and grabbed something from the nightstand drawer beside his bed. That made him frown. "This is a picture of your mother. I don't want you to not know her."Jacob handed over the cell phone he took earlier. He asked Roberto to find any photos of Ice that might still exist. And, luckily, there was one of her when she was still undercover in Laurence's group.Rui took the cell phone in her father's ha
"Eh? You." Rui was startled when she came out of her father's hospital room and saw the figure of a man who seemed to be walking towards her place."Yes. I heard your father was taken to the hospital, is he okay?" asked Arzhiel who immediately came to this hospital when he heard the news."Yes. But he's fine, he just woke up." Rui smiled faintly at this man who could make her heart feel uneasy."So, why aren't you inside?" Arzhiel wrinkled his forehead. "Do you want to do something?""No, I didn't. Mrs. Hayle and Clay's father wanted me to go out for a moment. They want to talk to Jacob's father. So I'll just go out." Rui said it in a slightly mischievous tone. I don't know, it's hard to act casual in front of people we like."Oh, I see, so I can't go in there yet either." Arzhiel looked at the door of the room. "I saw this little cafe near the hospital garden. It's not far, want to wait there instead?"Rui hearing that was a little startled and raising her eyebrows, she nodded slowly
"Rui ...." Hayle stared at her daughter to which Rui immediately responded."Yes? Mom?" Rui showed a subtle streak on her face, following the question that fell from her lips."I know that Rui probably has many things to ask. But, is it okay if you, Mom, and Jacob's father talk first?" Hayle gently tried to give understanding to her daughter. She knew that it was not difficult to usually talk to this sweet girl.Rui pursed her lips and nodded for a moment. Although there were indeed a lot of questions in her head but Rui couldn't force herself to stay there. One of her principles said that it was better not to know what she shouldn't know. Or maybe not yet.Jacob smiled proudly at how the princess behaved. Although he was reluctant to release the delicate grip of his daughter. But it was something they had to do. The three of them stared at Rui's departure who soon disappeared behind the door of the infirmary."I'm glad you guys took care of her to become such a great girl. I don't th
The door slowly opened. Making all the hearts of the people outside the door beat faster.When Jacob saw the figure of a woman sitting at the end of a fairly narrow room, on an old-looking bed. Curled up as if frightened with her hair loose over her face.Jacob frowned, not really having any expectations about how the woman who was predicted to be his wife was doing."Ice." Hayle walked into the room. Leaving the two men who seemed to be still observing the situation inside Ice's hospital room.As usual, Hayle sat at the end of the bed closest to her. Always trying to communicate well with the woman who never even looked at her."I'm here again, but this time I'm not alone with my husband. Would you like to see who came with us?" Hayle said it as gently as possible. It was always like that if she was dealing with this woman because according to Hayle, that was how to treat someone like this Ice.But, even though Hayle had seduced the woman. Of course Ice didn't seem to understand what
"Good morning!" the cheerful, friendly voice filled the room where Hayle was on duty, if not the kitchen.The woman raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly. "Good afternoon, Jac.""Yes! Yes! No need to emphasize it. But it's early in Alaska. I guess it is." Jacob rubbed his face. He still looked sleepy."The time difference between here and there is only an hour Jac, so I guess it's already daytime in Alaska." Hayle shook her head. Even at this age, she still couldn't let go of her innocence."Yeah. Every now and then make me happy Hayle by just following what I say." Jacob made a little annoyed face at being corrected by this woman."Eat your breakfast, or actually brunch. After that take your medicine. You have to take it, right?" Hayle said. Yesterday she saw him taking his medicine after their warm dinner."Not really. It's just for pain relief. Yesterday's flight made my leg ache, so I took it. It's quiet, even though four bullets have gone through my body. I'm overall very healt
"Why did you say something like that earlier Jax?" asked Hayle who glanced at her husband as she rubbed lotion all over her body after she finished putting on her clothes after cleaning herself."About what?" Jaxter took off the shirt he was wearing one by one. After his wife it was time for him to take a shower."About Ice."Jaxter did not answer immediately. Tickling the curiosity and attention of Hayle who immediately tried to see what happened to her man's face."Do you still suspect that Ice might betray us again?" Hayle asked."There's no harm in being on guard. We already have the life we dreamed of all this time, I won't let a single person ruin it." Jaxter glanced at his wife with a rather sharp gaze. Making Hayle unable to say anything. In a life like the one they lived. Tranquility was a high price they had to pay with so many sacrifices before."So about when will you let us see him. I'm sure Jacob and Rui will want to see Ice." Hayle tried to be cooperative with her husba
"At first I can't remember anything, I woke up in a hospital bed in Hawaii. All I knew was that my whole body was in a lot of pain and I couldn't get out of bed at all. The doctor who treated me said that I had been in a coma for more than half a year." Jacob recounted what he experienced after what happened to him. Everyone in the house was silent, they were listening to what this man was saying. Even so, his hand continued to hold Rui's hand."Then when did you get your memories?" asked Arzhiel who was even more curious about this man's story. Moreover, what he knew was that this man was not in an accident as told by his parents. Instead, he was attacked by people they didn't know."It took a long time for me to remember. About 3 years after the incident, I had a serious memory disorder. I even forgot everything. And, suddenly I woke up with a terrible headache, then I remembered my name and some glimpses of my previous life.""At that moment you remembered Rui?" asked Hayle now who
