Love Worth Fighting For

Chapter 207

207 Killing Machine

All of Jack’s curiosity was finally answered when he saw Elena with his own eyes. For a few minutes Jack didn’t say anything, his gaze was still fixed on Elena’s huge belly which was covered in her sizable clothes.

And not only Jack, Elena herself also looked so shocked when she saw the figure of Jack in front of her. Unknowingly, Elena gripped the chair she was sitting on tightly, the hateful look Jack gave her was too intimidating.

“Are you sure this is Christian’s baby?”

Elena gasped. “W..what do you mean, sir?”

Jack straightened himself, trying to calm himself. “I ask you, is this child Christian’s child?”

“I..I just...”

“How many months old?” Jack interrupted Elena’s words quickly.

“Twenty-nine weeks,” said Elena timidly, touching her stomach. “I’m not holding Christian accountable, I can take care of this child myself. You don’t have to worry.”

Jack smirked. “Take care of your own children? Can you really afford it? Right now you’re depending on my son for a living, aren’t you?”

.....

“I don’t depend on anyone for life, including Christian. Your son is holding me in this place, he wants me to feel what Suri feels even though I swear to God...”

“No!” Jack shouted loudly. “Don’t bring up God, a lowly human like you doesn’t deserve to mention God’s name.”

The tears that Elena had been holding back finally spilled, now Elena knows where Christian’s spicy mouth came from when he spoke.

“When you give birth later, the first thing we will do is immediately check on the baby. We have to know whether the baby belongs to Christian or not, if so buy Christian then we will take care of it but if not then...”

“No! You guys can’t take my baby,” Elena screamed frantically. “You have taken everything from me, my parents and my house. This time I will not let you take this baby, she is mine. I carry her.”

Jack laughed sarcastically, slowly crossing his arms across his chest. “Oh yeah? Dare to bet?”

Elena shook her head frantically. “No sir, you can’t take this baby from me. He’s mine, he’s the only one I have.”

“How are you going to take care of it if you’re still going to be here? Didn’t Christian decide to pay for what you did to Suri, huh?”

Elena immediately couldn’t say anything when Jack reminded her about Christian’s plan to make her feel what Suri felt.

Feeling that if his goal had been achieved, Jack then left in front of Elena, leaving her devastated.

“Do we need to see the young master, sir?” Erick asked carefully.

“No need, tomorrow when Christian gets home I’ll talk to him straight away to discuss this matter,” replied Jack hoarsely, holding back his emotions. “For now, make sure Christian doesn’t know I’m coming to see that woman.”

“Okay sir, I will order everyone in this place not to say anything,” replied Erick quickly.

Jack was silent, not responding to Erick’s words. All he did was walk back to the car that was in the front yard. After Jack left, Erick then gave a message to Romaria and the other maids. Even though Romaria and the other four maids had heard firsthand what Jack said, Erick chose to send a message back to the five middle-aged women who looked terrified. Although Erick did not use threats like when Christian spoke, the effects of Erick’s words sounded even more frightening to the servants’ ears.

“We will go straight to the airport, for the guards at this villa I leave it to you, Jorge,” Erick said quietly.

“You two are going straight back to Geneva?” asked Jorge, surprised.

Erick turned to the car where Jack had been in five minutes ago. “Right now I have an important task, Jorge. I have to calm Mr. Jack, Elena’s pregnancy has had a big impact on Mr. Jack.”

“In that case, okay.”

Erick pursed his lips, slowly he raised his hand and patted Jorge’s shoulder. “Keep an eye on young master.”

“Yes, I understand,” replied Jorge politely.

After hearing Jorge’s answer, Erick then stepped back towards the front yard following his master. Not long after Erick boarded, the two cars that had previously picked them up from the airport then left the villa. Romaria and the other maids immediately ran towards Elena, they were trying to strengthen Elena who was already crying.

“Patience, lady...patience,” Romaria whispered softly to Elena who was already in her arms.

“Why are they all mean to me, Romaria?” Elena’s sobs faltered.

With teary eyes, Romaria felt Elena’s hair which was already getting long. “God will not leave His servant, Miss. Keep praying, God’s help is real.”

“But I’m not strong anymore, Romaria. I can’t anymore...”

“Miss.” Romaria immediately tightened her arms on Elena. “Don’t talk like that, Miss. Please don’t talk like that.”

Elena closed her eyes with tears continuously flowing from her eyes, the wound in her chest was not dry enough after she saw the news on television showing Christian’s closeness to a beautiful girl named Charlotte, now Elena has to let her wound open again because Jack’s words hurt her so much.

“I’m not strong anymore, God... please pick me up, just bring me to my parents...”

***

The news of Jack’s arrival to the villa was finally known by Kainer, Kainer who had taken a leave of absence accidentally discovered the travel history of one of the jets belonging to the Clarke family who came to Luxembourg this morning. Without saying much, Kainer then carried out further investigations and managed to find a surprising fact where Jack and Erick came to Elena at the villa. Even though he doesn’t know what Jack said to Elena, Kainer is sure that Elena is getting worse right now.

After his attempts to cover up news of Christian and Charlotte’s closeness from Elena fail, Kainer’s guilt becomes even greater for Elena with Jack’s arrival to Luxembourg.

“Fuck...I can’t let this keep happening. Elena could kill herself if she keeps getting all this pressure...” Kainer hit her desk hard. “I have to hurry, there are two lives I have to save right now. Lord, please help me. Help me solve all these dizzying riddles, please have mercy on the innocent mother and child.”

Last night before going to bed, Kainer had a chance to talk to Elena through Romaria’s cell phone. Romaria who couldn’t bear to see Elena cry because of the news on television showing Christian and Charlotte’s closeness finally asked Kainer for help, that’s why Elena and Kainer could talk. For almost two hours of talking, Elena continued to say that she was innocent. And every time those words left Elena’s lips, Kainer felt like she was being stabbed by a knife in her chest. Kainer couldn’t bear to hear Elena’s stifling cry.

After calming down, Kainer went back to work. Using two laptops at once, Kainer kept trying to find information about the masked girl who looked so much like Elena tirelessly. Even though at this time, his paid hacker is also doing the same thing at his house. However, because Kainer couldn’t hear Elena’s cry anymore, she finally intervened. Kainer’s search continued until the sun was already on the western horizon.

Meanwhile at the airport Christian and Charlotte are preparing to head to Geneva. Christian, who was asked to go home by his mother to enjoy dinner together, decided to invite Charlotte, Charlotte who had missed Anne so much did not refuse Christian’s invitation. Christian has absolutely no idea about his father’s arrival to see Elena or what Kainer is doing at the moment. Reuniting with his childhood friend makes Christian forget his responsibilities to Elena and the baby.

As the sun slowly set, Kainer finally found a glimmer of hope when the questions he had posted on the dark, impenetrable website were answered.

“Have you ever used the services of this secret agent? What task did you give her?”

Kainer’s heart almost stopped when he read the red text that appeared on his laptop screen, the text was commenting on the photo of the masked girl that Kainer had deliberately uploaded to the website looking for answers. .

With trembling hands Kainer wrote, “A secret agent?”

“Yes, she’s a killing machine that never fails in the line of duty. The only person to turn down the American government’s offer.”

Prank...

The glass beside the laptop fell to the floor because it was accidentally hit by Kainer’s hand, who was so surprised to read the writing that appeared in front of him again.

“Killing machine...rejected the American government’s offer.”
