The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 409 - Getting Laid!

"Mr. Smith!!!!!"

His joke wasn't liked by Jennifer at all. Her displeasure to depict her current miserable attitude and a loud laugh was heard afterward.

It was Jack who wasn't able to contain his laugh at that point. Not only that, he couldn't help but feel that he had such a thought in his mind. "Oh alright, I'm sorry, but I was just curious, you know."

"I will never forget about my? husband and cheating...that is already an absurd thought." Jennifer's eyes shone with a sparkle present in them. There was no denying that her heart beats only for one person and that was her Javier.

As Jack noted the same glint in her eyes, he can't help but feel slight annoyance. His thoughts wander around his own past, recalling how there was one girl in his life...who had also considered him as her world.

Lowering his eyes, he can't help but feel the bitter thoughts revolving again as the clip when they both had fought appeared in his mind. 'And I had actually thought about losing her in my life...'

"Mr. Smith? Are you alright?" Jennifer's voice pulled him out when he immediately lifted his head to nod, "I'm fine. But I will come straight to the topic. Tell me, what do you want from me." Jack asked with the bluntness present in his speech.

Hearing this same, Jennifer's brows were curved into a frown as she took a deep breath to not let emotions take a troll over her mind." I want to destroy Lucas. For whatever had been done to me and Javier's....he will have to pay the price for that.." and to our lost child...

Jennifer kept the second half in her throat, not revealing that she was once pregnant and had undergone a miscarriage. If this news was still not in the air, she wouldn't initiate to reveal this as well. Jack could understand her hatred when he got up from his seat before he walked into the minibar.

At this point, he seemed relaxed, making Jennifer even more doubtful. Was he only interested in learning her plan? her aim? What about him? She was as eager as him, so Jennifer asked from behind, "What about you then?"

"Me?" Jack asked loudly as he reached the bar to make drinks for both of them., "I do have the same aim as you but...my aim is deeper and personal. It isn't entirely with Lucas but..with other members of the Smith family."

"Other members of the Smith family...you mean to say Elder master Smith and his mother Amara Smith?" Jennifer asked as she recalled that there must be no one else except these two who can be considered the immediate family of Lucas.

In return, he nodded his head as he walked closer to her. Sitting down on the couch, he too sipped out of his drink before replying, "You are correct. My hatred doesn't lie only with Lucas but with his entire family..I want to tell each one of them and? get my hands on everything they possess."

"But why so much hatred?" Jenifer can't help but ask.

Her reason we're pretty clear and obvious to him. However, she can't help but understand the reason behind his misery. She could sense that his hatred wasn't any less when it is compared to others.

Wasn't he the illegitimate child as Lucas had told? Was his mother seriously a mistress? She could hardly believe that the late Mr. Smith had an affair. But if it was an affair...how is it possible that Jack is older than Lucas?

It made no sense, if the affair was after the marriage then where did Jack come from? There were tons of doubts that she had to clear out before proceeding to take any other step in his direction.

For the next few minutes, he kept himself, mum. Circling his hand around his glass, he kept himself down, while staring at the ground floor. With the darkness that was the present around them, Jenifer didn't press him either to speak since she could believe that it must be hard for him to remember.

If her wound was a fresh one, she can't imagine what he had to go through, if he was so reluctant to share. To give him the sense of relaxment, Jennifer did mutter, "You know you can tell me, I won't judge you either."

"Thank you for your words, Ms. Jennifer but...there's nothing to be judged. Hah..After I tell you about everything, I'm pretty sure that you might judge the Smith family, not me." Jack responded with a soft grin.

It made the doubts even raise more and reach the peak as Jennifer again asked, "Mind telling?"

In return, Jack nodded his head before he took a deep breath. Massaging his head with the help of his fingers, he held his breath to himself before he spoke, "You already know that my mum is someone… who isn't liked by anyone in the Smith family."

"Everyone termed her as a mistress, who came in between the couple. However, no one actually knew that it was none other than Amara who was bent on breaking my parents before their marriage…."

*FLASHBACK*

While sitting at her space near the bar, the young Veronica was currently circling her hands near the tip of her glass. With herself standing in a daze, there was no one else who was actually waiting for her, neither did anyone else matter right now.

She was pulled out of her daze when the bartender asked her, "Veronica, till when are you going to remain upset?"

"Drake…" lifting her gaze, she smiled at him, "Do you know how it feels when someone you love comes and says that he is in love with anyone else?"

"I have no idea…" Drake shook his head before he kept his hand on the shelf while looking at her face, "But if you keep yourself like this, the pain will eat you up."

In return, Veronica shook her head. She was so overwhelmed with the emotions, her heart only knew one name and that was of her crush who… her best friend who is now getting married to his love.

What an irony!

As her gaze traveled to see the unhappy Drake, Veronica finally asked with a straight line, "Alright tell me. What do you want me to do?"

"Get laid with someone.. to forget about this pain. It does work!"
