CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE II
Last Updated:
2021-02-26 23:49:13It wasn't hard to fall into a comfortable conversation with the guys for JoJo.
They were just like new versions of Jordan, one older and the other younger.
And it was funny that Jordan was suspicious of Zayn's interest in her though, he was being possessive of her even in the with only his family in it.
And he was shamelessly being so without any try at being discreet.
It was even funnier that Zayn knew and was playing his hands, pushing him.
Malik was the only one not invested in the tousle, and while she didn't want it, she was also indirectly involved because she seemed to be the prize.
Among the three boys, Malik was the quiet, decent and level headed one, not that it made her love her man any less.
He has this air if mystery around him that tends to pull people in even when he didn't want it.
Of course she was pulled in, but only in the way that mattered here, she wanted to hear about him and the things he's been up to since she l

What the fuck.Jordan glanced off at JoJo as he listened to what Brad was saying on the other end of the line."My guys have reports on the man you want, and I have another that says he knows where you guys are and they're gonna try shit with her again."Fuck all this, he wanted to be at the end of all this already."Whatever it is you have doing, cut it out man and get her back here, we have edge over them back here. My source shows they have a fully functional base there which is something we don't have."And until this is over, I don't think you should leave Meghan and Riley alone. These guys are brutal and we are not exactly sure all we're dealing with here. Do you hear me, Jordan?""Yeah, fuck, I do."He could hear her laugh from the other end of the room, probably at something one of his family members had said, her laugh beautiful and enthralling, he couldn't loose her.Not now, not ever."They've tried once and m

Adam stood in position, waiting with his men around the house.He'd heard the noise, he'd seen the men come in and in his years of being in service with Jordan McGrath, this was the moment he's been waiting for.He hope to rip those badtards up before his boss even gets to see them.He had the little miss, the one that always smiles whenever she greeted him, upstairs and being watched but he knew from the movement that Meghan was the prime target.They didn't look like they had any business with anything upstairs, whoever they were, they obviously knew exactly where her room was.The poor woman has been through enough and they'd have to go through him and his guys before they got to her or laid a hand on her.The three men he was tracking were trying to stealthily edge towards the side of the house that housed her room making it easier for his circle to have them surrounded.He signaled for his men to slowly close them in without rousing the

Something was wrong, JoJo could tell from how tense Jordan had gotten while on his phone.They'd just landed back in the big apple and on the ride back to his home, with Fred at the wheels and the both of them at the back.Since the night he'd gotten drunk, he's been staying away from the wheels of any car, she wasn't sure what had happened to him that night but she knew it had something to do with telling her about the accident with his mom.She tried to ignore whatever was going on and stay positive, looking forward to seeing her mom and the energy ball that's her sister, Riley, but she couldn't.Nothing have been fine since they left his dad and brothers in that hospital room and she could swear on her life that whatever it was that had spurred their rush departure has progressively gotten worse."Do you want us to talk about it?"She asked, watching him.He looked at her, like he'd just realized that she was there, right next to h

While JoJo looked forward to seeing everyone back home, she hadn't been expecting to open the door to Brooks.Usually, it was her energy ball of a sister with a mouth bigger than her barreling through those doors and into them, not Brooks and definitely not with tears in the old woman's eyes.All the worries and questions she'd been trying to keep at bay since that call Jordan took in the car came rushing back into her head with a vengeance as she held a crying Brooks to her body.Her first thought was her mother.Brooks have gotten so used to the woman that it'd take something happening to her to have the woman loosing this much tears with equal fear in her eyes."I'm so sorry, Jocie, I should have done better."She heard her mutter as the tears continued to come."What happened to my mother, Brooks?"She asked, an uninvited quiver in her voice, making her sound less confident than she'd have liked.The older woman's ey

He'd fucked up, again, and Jordan knew it.He always did with JoJo and he hated it because he get to watch it hurt her too, every damn time.With that in mind, he was functioning like a machine on a high.He'd get Riley back, even if it's the last thing he does.These women mean more to him than anything else in the world right now, to have one of them taken from his house and the other angry and threatening to break up with him was driving him to his extremes."Come with me," he commanded Adam in his coldest voice yet, sounding devoid of any other emotion except anger, at this point, he was rage driven.He was conscious of a confuse and grieving Brooks still standing in the room and looking at him with a probable reprimand hanging off her lips, but he had nothing to offer her just yet.He didn't care about anything else at the moment except Riley and getting her back, even if that entails going to the end of the world and saving her

Jordan was restless and rearing to go already If anybody has information on where his girl is like Brad had promised, then he wanted to be there, bursting her out of their grasp. She didn't deserve to suffer for nothing and if he could help it, he wanted her back here where he could see her and held her and fucking watch her play. He wanted to see her haul that bear of hers, Alfie, around and play with that Golden retriever puppy he hasn't even seen since getting back. He should have gotten her a full grown guard dog instead. Maybe a pitbull, a Rottweiler or even a pure bred Cane Corso. Anyone of these would have done a better job of keeping her safe than her retriever puppy that she calls puppy. He followed Brad out, leaving the guy in his basement still cuffed to the wall, only higher again, and gasping for his own breath. His men were already assembled and lined up and waiting when they got outside. At

JoJo felt the weight of the world crash on her shoulders. She'd imagined every other scenario since the beginning of this crazy mega whoop phase of her life, but not this. Not Riley. She's been there, she's seen what these men can do and it wasn't what she wanted for her baby. It was all her fault. She'd stalled, ignored the threat they'd made her and look what's happened, they were going to make good of it and she was helpless. Her knees gave way and she fell unto her bed, not caring that she was soaking the sheets with her tears. She had a prayer on her lips to every God listening to keep her sister safe. If only she'd listened and gotten whatever it was they'd been asking for from her mom. If only.........Her mom! God, there's the sliver of a chance that this can be salvaged. Her mom is exactly who she should be talking to right now, asking questions whose answers she needed urgently.

Tat didn't think it was wise of the boss to order for the kidnap of the child sleeping on the couch in the room he was watching.No, he decided, it wasn't, not at all.The little one had finally cried herself back to sleep and the more he hung around in here, the closer he was to snapping and taking this game into his own hands.He'd do anything in this business and for his boss, anything but hurt a child.And this girl lying in here was one and they were already hurting her by keeping her here.When he'd made the threat to the woman they'd brought in the last time, he hadn't thought he'd have to make good of it.But she hadn't fazed or brought in whatever it was she had that belonged to his boss.And now they were resorting to kids?For him, this is where the order ends, having her in this room would be the most they'd do to her, he'd make sure of it.He'd taken the job of watching her to make sure she stays safe throug

Hailey stood in front of the whole family, her seven year old palms sweaty. She'd spent the whole night reciting this all over again, so it shouldn't be a big deal, yeah? "It's okay, baby, it's just us." Jojo whispered from her seat, her very pregnant belly making her movement strenuous. Yeah, just them. Well, here goes nothing. "Uhhmm, this is my family tree....." She started a little shyly, pointing to the treelike structure balanced on the table next to her, stuck full of pictures. Her voice was so small, but it carried around the room. "I made it myself, well, mummy helped.....a lot. And I'm taking it to school for show and tell on Monday." She could see her daddy giving her an encouraging thumbs up and it put the light into her eyes and confidence in her voice. "From the top, this is Granny Meghan and Grandpa Tommy who I didn't get to meet and they gave birth to my mommy and Riley. Too bad they died b

If JoJo had thought her life was a mess, the truth she'd just discovered crashed if past the grounds, it shattered every truth she's ever known and believed. Uncle Fer....... Fucking Ferdinand! That monster. He'd been the architect of a her pain and problem but he'd always crawled back to blow on them and make it seem like he'd cared. And to find out that he'd been her sperm donor, it killed her to believe it. Jordan was as struck as she was from what they'd read. She ached for her mother too, who'd had to live with all these for years, having no one to be by her side while she played sick and lost in a bid to protect her girls. It must have been hard, being in bed all year round, reliving the nightmares of both events and hating herself for being so weak. She swore she'd be stronger, for herself and Riley and they'd bring the man to Justice, for her mom. But I like her mom, she had Jordan by her side in these t

Jocelyn,Been so long I said your name, guess this might be last you'd hear me call you by your name.So many years have passed and sometimes I lie here, in bed and regret the decisions I made in the past.But I'll always hope you realise it was all for the best, I did what I did to keep you and your sister alive and out of the clutches of the devil, Ferdinand.The man is a devil that shouldn't have found his way into our lives, but he did and till date, we are all still suffering in the wake of all his evil deeds.Tommy, your father, bless his soul, was a good man, the best ever.I met them both while in college and yeah, Ferdinand asked to court me first, but my heart had been longing for another and I'd turned him down.Turns out that was a sin he couldn't forgive.

"No, that can't be." Jojo muttered in disgust as she watched the video playing out before her.There's no way this is true, no way it's him.It'd kill her to believe it was and see just how blind she's been all these years, to find out that her mom had been right all along......God, no.But her denial didn't bring any desired difference to what she'd seen, it didn't wipe the memory or make the video a prank.This had been the night she'd lost her father, this had been where his body had been found, there's no mistaking it, she'd never forgotten.It took Jordan rubbing down her back and asking her in a concerned voice to breathe, to realise she'd been holding her breath.Maybe if she holds it in long enough, she'd realise that all this is just a dream home wrong.Or maybe it wasn't and she was just in a hopeless denial."Please Jordan, tell me it's not him, tell me that's not Uncle Ferdie, I'll believe you."She sob

After Riley was fed and out with her very own little family, Alfie and puppy, JoJo got to work searching for that little box.It was one thing to loose her mother so unexpectedly, but to loose the last trace of evidence and her only hope to bringing whoever had been behind her decade old pain to justice?No fucking way!She turned the room they'd been in inside out in her search, but it was nowhere to be found.She was already halfway done with fixing it back up when it did occur to her that she'd last seen the box while lying in that bed with Jordan.It made a lot of sense to think that he had gone missing from the room at the same time her box had and that easily translates to it possibly being in his possession.It kinda pissed her to have him butting into her family issues without her permission, even without the confirmation that he had.Stupid, yeah, but it did embarrassment to have all her linens in his hands without any contro

JoJo woke before Riley did, there'd been nightmares that didn't let her hold onto the oblivion for too long. She was glad Riley wasn't subjected to the same fate though that didn't hold for long. Tiny feet and big, soulful brown eyes found her sooner than she'd have liked, clouded with visible confusion and fear. "Come here, baby girl." She called to her from where she stood at the door. It did just occur to her why the room looked emptier than she last remembered it. Jordan had been with her before she'd succumbed to the luring hands of sleep. "Come." Her voice was much softer, pleading and beckoning, she didn't want force her, that could be more harmful than it'd be good. The younger girl finally gave in, and came into the room, crawling into JoJo's laps. She held her, stroking her hair, the quietness that was hanging around the house making her nauseous. Maybe it's always been this quiet with

The twist got bigger the deeper he dug and the plot hole wider.There'd been a lot going on with Tom Collen and Ferdinand and the more he discovered, the clearer it got and the more his theory on Tom's murder held.The files on the card were too many to peruse at one go so he abandoned it for the line card he'd inserted to read.At first there seemed to be nothing of interest in it until he stumbled upon a video record.It looked to be from a security camera recording from long ago.He sat in his chair, watching it and wishing he didn't have to.It made it worse that this was what he'd have to show JoJo, the horror she'd have to see.If only he could save her this, the pain and the nightmare.She didn't deserve it, not do soon, not with everything she was dealing with.He dialed Brad instead, requesting for immediate audience.They've become an investigative team of their own after all,bent on riding the world of

She finally fell asleep, right in Jordan's arms, drained from all the tears she'd cried and all the grief she'd let herself become buried under.He understood her pain, he'd seen it, experienced it and it was nothing to joke about.And he'd give anything in a heartbeat to take it away from her, to see her face light up with one of those her beautiful smiles that always made his day.These times have been the hardest and this crown looks too heavy for the head wearing it.But one thing he was sure of was that he was going no where, he'd be her, by her side until it gets better and even then, there'd be no force strong enough to remove him from her life.He loves her more than he'd ever imagined he could love anyone, his baby girl, his JoJo.She looked calmed while she slept, a tad bit relaxed, better than she'd been when she'd been up and grieving.He leaned down, pressing his lips to her forehead in a gentle, tender kiss.Her g

Meghan's passing was a blow nobody expected, and everyone was taking it hard around the house, especially JoJo.She'd never expected this day to come so soon and now that it did, it did hit hard.She'd been do lost, but Jordan had been there every step of the way, taking charge and getting the body to the morgue.At least that's where she believes they went.She'd let herself get sucked into shadowing Riley and crying her soul out.Riley was asleep now, having cried herself to it, and now JoJo had time on her hands to mourn.She had the watch she'd recently just retrieved, fiddling with it and wondering what she's supposed to do with the damn thing without Meghan to give her a guide.The door to the room came open and Jordan stood at the door.She wasn't expecting him to be back so soon.She could see the pity swimming in his eyes even before he took steps closer in her direction.He was careful not to wake
