The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 69: Gaslighting
Jacques tried to do some work at Jeremy's desk. Just an hour ago, he called her and told her to do whatever she wants as he won't be in the office in the morning. Apparently, he is meeting his dear sister. And this was the first time he called her phone and she stored his number.Since she was given no tasks to do, she used the time to revamp her company's website. She knew web designing and she changed the website to be more attractive to women. She had some plans for the collector's items and she decided to visit her company as soon as possible.Jeremy's computer had the latest specifications and it was easy to work with and Jacques, with no guilt, did her personal work in her office time. She stretched herself after concentrating for a while and her eyes ended up on the bag containing the lunch. She took a peek and it contained a generously big sandwich.When was the last time someone packed lunch for me?Her dad used to pack lunch for her when she was starting elementary school.
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 70: I Can't Be Alone Anymore
Emma wiped her eyes the moment Jeremy left in his car. He acted as usual with her and she just cried without speaking anything more since she didn't know how much Jeremy knows.As a veteran of lying, she knew speaking a lot is never good. She barely got away with saying that she almost got stabbed by Jacques. If Jeremy was not such an emotional idiot, she couldn't have gotten away. If Jacques went along with her, or just ended the call just how she usually does, this issue would have been resolved. Emma couldn't understand how Jacques had changed so much. Now Jeremy won't leave it as it is.You dared to talk back to me, Jacques? Karma will get me? Heh! Karma is the bane of your existence; not mine! You will suffer for taking my place! I should be the one adored by everyone; not you! "Move," the dry voice of Gerard snapped her out of her thoughts and she looked at him with a smile. Wearing a gray tailored suit, he looked dapper.How can I let him go?"Are you leaving for work? You di
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 71: The Truth Was Out
One by one the others started to leave the garden and the place became silent."I talked to her recently, but she didn't mention calling me. So she called?" Jacques decided to speak her mind. These past few months had entirely destabilized her. A lot has happened around her while she was totally ignorant."Yes, there were some ten or so missed calls and she even went to your apartment-""Why wasn't I informed..." Jacques wanted to raise her voice, but she held back to not scare the baby."You weren't informed? You were trying hard to escape, not believing the threat on your life. Even Bobby got angry at your antics. Do you know how you were hunted a month back? The Shard Viper's people roamed around the streets with military-grade weapons and they had orders to kill you on sight. Even law enforcement officers were spying on behalf of him..."Scarlett got close to Jacques and whispered, "Jerry wanted to keep this from you, but... one university student was killed with twenty-one bullet
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 72: Inconsiderate, Not Malicious
Jeremy staggered hearing what Jacques said. He stood supporting himself in the trunk of the tree. His chest felt heavy and he took deep breaths to help him breathe. She didn't elaborate, but she revealed a pretty shocking incident.Emma had told her that Jacques had no one. The knife Emma left was there and she tried to off herself forgetting that she was pregnant. But she stopped herself and she ended up losing her baby anyway. How much did she suffer that day? He didn't think she was lying. Her weeps originated from her gut and he could see she was broken even remembering that day. And the other day when he mentioned Emma at the diner, she got sick. She is not lying. She is greatly affected by what happened.He can understand why she is blaming herself for the miscarriage when she used to blame him before. Grieving for someone you lost is a very complicated thing. You'll try to find reasons and then you end up blaming everything. He went through grief and he understood her.Leanin
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 73: Scarlette Story
Thinking about her miscarriage made her want to cry more, but then she tried to distract herself. Her eyes were puffy and she didn't want to enter the office now. "Bobby was pretty happy that you didn't run away scared from him that day," Scarlett asked after a while and Jacques smiled with embarrassment."I used to be very scared of him and everyone near TJ... But they've done a lot for me without any appreciation from me. I don't know how I will repay them all," Jacques fiddled with her fingers. She was moved after knowing everything."They didn't do it for you, but for Jerry...." Scarlett said and Jacques looked at her. "Everyone here owes one or two to Jerry; even Bobby. So they won't ever question him.""I know... I used to be scared of that aspect too. When Bobby bragged about how they handled their enemies, I took it as he was threatening me... I feel stupid now that I know the truth." Jacques said."Haha...So that's how Bobby thought he was helping Jerry! Since I thought of h
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 74: How To Beat Emma
"Anything," Scarlett said, seeing the serious but hesitant face of Jacques. "Thank you... It's... will you please keep what I said before, about me trying to you-know-what as a secret? Please keep it from Bobby too. I know it is too much of me to ask this, but I don't want Emma to know. Bobby will tell Jeremy and Jeremy will tell Emma and she'll laugh at me," Jacques started mumbling the last sentence. "Got it," Scarlett agreed. Even if he is her husband, she knows she cannot talk about other people's secrets with him.And Emma... she is vicious, isn't she?Although Jacques didn't elaborate, Scarlett understood that Emma's words were very hurtful for Jacques. It is not news to her that Emma hates Jacques, but she is holding on to the hate for a decade which was a little surprising for her.As someone who knows Jerry the longest, her words would mean a lot to Jerry, but when it comes to Emma, he won't listen to her or anyone else. She tried to talk to Bobby about Emma, but for those
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 75: An Unavoidable Meeting
"I didn't know you sing so well, Bobby," Jacques said with a grimace and Scarlett started laughing out loud."Oh, you're here," Bobby's tone was mixed with a lot of emotions. But disappointment was more pronounced."I'm leaving," Jacques waved her hands. "I won't disturb your night of love." "Stay for dinner, madam Luna," Bobby said with a grin after he was pinched by Scarlett."No need to feel obliged, Bobby. I can see I am not welcome here," Jacques said in a serious tone making Bobby sad. "Pfft...hahaha... your face!" Jacques laughed, making Bobby surprised. "I'll visit another time for dinner. And one more thing, will you please stop addressing me as 'madam'? It makes me feel like... old... or like I am a...""Lady p*mp?" Scarlett added and Jacques nodded. "Yes.""Or, you know a kinky madame...whoosh," Scarlett made a whipping motion. "It would be funny to see you dressed in leather holding a whip and Jerry kneeling in front of you with a collar begging you-""Oh, that's enough
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 76: Is It Worth It?
What is he doing?Jacques got angry at TJ in her heart. But seeing those piercingly blue eyes that were calm as the deep blue sea, she realized she needs to have this talk. She needs to tell him what she feels and maybe about her miscarriage. I need to pull the band-aid and tell him that he and I can never be together again."Yes, let's," she turned and looked at Gerard. "I know a place.""I'll be at the pub," Jacques looked at Jeremy and he nodded. He extended his hand as if he was about to say something. "Mmm?" Jacques asked, taking a step closer to Jeremy, but Gerard pulled her by the wrist."Gerry!" Jacques furrowed her brows. She didn't like getting pulled when she was in a conversation with another."Nothing," Jeremy waved his hand. "Call me after," he smiled."Okay, I won't take long," she nodded and turned at Gerard."It's pretty close from here. Let's take a walk," she showed the direction, carefully avoiding his hand that was about to hold hers.Her heart was beating in her
