The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 159 - Caught!

Chapter 159 - Caught!

His words infuriated Lucas to the next level.

He wasn't able to digest the comments which made him boil in the pit of fire.

At the same time, he removed his sunglasses and passed Javier's constant death glances.

Ignoring him for once and all, Javier didn't seem to care about them at all. In his eyes, they were merely to make him scared but he forgot that Lucas can never win against him in the race of having Jennifer.

"Sir… everything is fine," Ellen replied back after checking that there was nothing on with their uncle and Lucas has not played any dirty trick against them.

Javier nodded his head, "Alright."

He didn't let his subordinate remove the mask till yet, instead, his eyes averted in Lucas's direction who looked no less than furious.

"You should head back now."

Without even saying anything in respect of his words, Lucas didn't spare him any glance anymore.

"I will be back very soon...to have Jennifer by my side. Javier, remember my words, that lady is mine to marry, don't you dare to think of having anything out of her, otherwise... no one can spare you from my wrath."

"Give these kinds of threats to someone who fears you. For me? I have the power to do what I wish to, so don't expect anything out of me. Rather you should focus on completing the deal as soon as possible,... if you don't wish to see that day.." That was all that Javier answered back.

Javier's hands were tugged inside his pocket, with his chin high.

It was quite evident that Javier has nothing to worry about, unlike Lucas who is in a disadvantageous position.

Sitting in his car, Lucas and his men left the brother, at last, leaving the Johnsons on the other side of the land.

When the cars of the Smith and their bodyguard were out of their sight, did Javier speak, "Remove the mask of the uncle?"

Ryan nodded and did as instructed to him.

Removing The blindfold from the back, came the view of the uncle's face who looked older than his own age. "Oh My.. finally daylight blesses my eyes..."

With this, he bent on knees and touched the ground, to thank the God, who finally made him step on his land after so long, "I..had once thought that I would die in Smith's state itself."

"How can we let that happen to you brother? We, Johnson, might be late in doing our task and having you back, but it is never too late to begin and get things done at the right time." Shawn answered back.

Taking a step ahead, he supported his brother and made him stand on his legs. With this, both brothers shared a tight hug, where Uncle Fred had tears in his eyes.

After struggling so much for the past years, only he knows how he was able to survive in the cells which were too much isolated from everyone.

"I...I missed you brother.. you and our state...my children..'' With this, Charles too wasn't able to hold himself anymore.

He headed in their direction hugged his uncle, tightly, as if this was the last time he was taking a breath, "We..missed you so much, uncle.. I..it was too much hard without you.."

Fred patted Charles's head when a faint smile appeared on his face, "Sh...you guys have worked hard and finally..I'm here."

Javier stayed back but he too felt relief wash over his entire body when he saw how all the other members united.

Being one of those, who let the emotions locked, he didn't greet his uncle as others. Neither did he step ahead to pass him a hug, or something similar but instead stayed at a little certain distance, witnessing how his uncle ruffled his brother's hair.

At the same time, Uncle Fred saw his second nephew not moving at all.

He seemed frozen to his pace when he called his name "Javier... your uncle has returned after long.. Won't you even spare a hug to him? have you grown up so much to forget me?"

Passing a shook, without controlling his inner emotions, he too stepped closer to them and hugged the two of them with his heart out.

Though he maintained a calm and composure look, no one can hide his intensity to see his uncle after so long.

"Y..You left us so abruptly, uncle." Javier replied. He recalled his uncle's kidnapping news traveled into their ears and how much, where they shattered.

Since childhood after their own father, they were close with the uncle who didn't have his own kids but decided to raise his nephews as his own.

With the same intent, the importance of uncle Fred, in Javier and Charles's heart is undefined.

The love they have for his man is much more as compared to what they have for their own father, for whom they have nothing but immense hatred it begins with.

Shawn witnessed the unity of the three of them and his eyes narrowed slightly.

'As always, they aren't stressed about me, unlike for brother..' he won't' deny that he was used to jealous whenever his own children preferred his brother over him.

But somehow, it made sense to him after all he wasn't the best father either to any of them.

Ryan and Ellen were seeing the scene and had to cut in between with a deep condition,"I believe.. We should now head back to our mansion. We can't stay for much longer."

Everyone nodded their head. Parting from each other's embrace, the uncle was made to sit in the middle car since he was still got to be kept in isolation as no one can deny that they were still wary of Lucas and his techniques.

Neither do the uncle revoked as they all are aware of how Lucas functions.

Along with this, everyone made their way to their respective cars but at the same time, Javier's eyes fell on the trunk which was half opened, 'Was it left open...?' he wasn't sure himself as he never thought he ever opened the boot.

Brushing the thoughts in his mind, he considered that it must be before they drove to this place and no one's attention caught the same.

"Javier, what happened? Why Are You seeing back?" Charles asked when he noted that his brother's attention was somewhere else instead of sitting on the driving seat.

"Oh, brother boot space is open. I will close it now.." with this he walked closer to the back of the car and was going to open it, to close it properly but before that, when he opened the trunk space, his heart skipped a beat.

"Jenn..Jennifer.."
