The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 100 - Broke Up!?

Charles's hand froze in the middle air. His entire face started getting pale just with one name which suddenly made Javier alerted.

The whiteness on his face was spreading, and he could feel his brother losing his calm.

Despite everything happening with him, Charles tried to remain as calm as possible. He closed his eyes for a mere second and opened them again, pooping almost fine.

"She is good... I believe. What can you expect from someone like me…? Hah, she is already abroad with her child." The tone added up more tension.

He was stressed, or how that hurt deeply, either mentally or emotionally.

"So, you both broke up already?" Javier asked with quite a surprising tone. As long as he remembered these two were still together despite their odds. "Our family won't have agreed and you know this. So, her family arranged a guy for her and she married him and has a child. But later on, heard her husband died or they divorced, I don't know."

His brother wasn't young either. He was already thirty-three this year and friends of his age are already parents, spending their family time with loved ones.

Unfortunately, his brother was still very much single, making all of them wonder what happened to him?

He is the most suitable bachelor of their time yet no rumor of his family surfaced on headlines.

"But you never said anything like this to me… Last time, I heard that you both.." Javier still remembered that they were very much together last year too.

He faced his brother and himself expressed that but in return, Javier realized that things were not as they appeared.

Charles smiled but the smile wasn't very genuine. Javier's gaze fell on his trembling hand which he was very much trying to hide but was informality unsuccessful...

"I lied. I didn't have the courage to accept that.. we aren't anymore so I was lying to you for a long period.. so I lied but yeah the truth is that she went away already... four years ago." Four years? Javier wasn't able to believe what he listened to. More or less, it appeared a joke to him.

His eyes were wide as saucers. The words are speechless and his body is frozen for the next few seconds.

All he did was stare at his brother with a kind of astonishment and at the same time cursing look.

Charles looked at Javier from the corner of his eyes to see, "Don't give me that look. I know that I was wrong. But things are how it is. So, stop meddling in my affairs and try to complete your love story otherwise.. it will be left incomplete just like me."

He kept his hand on Javier's shoulder and passed him an assured smile. Heartbreak was evident on his face but he tried to hide it from Javier.

Unfortunately, he forgot that Javier can read facial expressions more clearly than he can.

"It is a high time now... brother yo age is increasing day by day.." Charles didn't pay any attention o him.

"You should consider a life partner. It is h-" Javier was interrupted in the middle when Charles immediately shifted the topic.

"Alright... I should go home. It is already late." Charles nodded his head, indicating he isn't interested in that conversation.

Giving his brother a hug, Javier was going to walk back to the apartment stopped in the middle, and locked behind, to see his brother hasn't left till yet.

"Brother! Take care of Amaira as well!" With this, he didn't turn around anymore and walked straight to his apartment.

But the words were loud enough to be heard by Charles. Meanwhile, Charles stared at Javier's back after hearing what he said.

'You act so aloof towards her yet you want me to take care of her? How long can you hold a grudge against the little girl…'

…

David was currently on the call with his friend when Amelia showed her face. She quit till he finished his call and after they could converse.

When the call ended, he turned around to see his wife's anger. "I talked to them about the flight tickets. They said that they would be able to arrange it but the problem arose... We can't take our son with us."

"Don't worry, let him stay here. He isn't beneficial also and covering ourselves is more important. We just have to bring Jennifer back at any cost." Amelia answered with a together face, with determination shining in her eyes.

"But for that, we have to.. somehow convince Lucas. I'm pretty much sure that he is keeping an eye over us. He doesn't know that we know about Jennifer's identity as well. Fooling him is no easy task."

Somewhere, Amelia agreed with his words. Lucas wasn't a fool like they all think. His mind is super clever and if he might be mare stupid and run under his nose but his grandfather is someone, whom they need to be wary of.

"Then.. let us just tame Lucas into saying that we will bring back Jennifer at most. He might agree with us after all, Jennifer does have a soft corner for her family."

Using Jennifer emotionally was surely possible and they were planning to do the same. He nodded his head and dialed Lucas's number to hear the cold voice. "Hello?"

"L..Mr... Mr.. Smith, I'm David Taylor. We would like to meet you once, we have something related to Jennifer to discuss with you."

"Straightaway come to my office then." He gave a short reply from the other side and hung up immediately.

David was burning in anger but Amelia touched his shoulders to make him calm. "He is bent to test our patience. Don't give him much attention. Our focus is to bring Jennifer back."

David nodded his head, "So that she can marry that man and we can get whatever Lucas promised us by marrying her.."
