EPISODE 70
“I’m sorry, boss,” Code 2 bowed his head.
Maverick ignored him and doubled his steps, hurrying out of the meeting room.
Code 10 looked at Code 2 and chuckled. “I told you, hahaha…”
He told Code 2 to interrupt the important meeting and tell the boss that his wife was here but Code 2 slapped his head. Now, he might be punished for making Madam Jeslyn go through a lot to teach her husband. Hahaha…
Maverick entered an office on the floor and took an elevator to his office on Cloud 9. By the time he entered, Jeslyn was already waiting inside, fuming.
“Why are you upset?” He asked while walking towards her. His eyes skimmed her dress and his lips curled up.
“Coming to your office is too troublesome. I felt like I was a spy, sent to steal some confidential documents.” She pouted.
“Or, you’re here to seduce me?” he pulled her to his chest by the waist.
Jeslyn glanced at the door, Code 5 was no longer there. He must have left when Maverick walked in. She thought and she wasn’t wrong.
“Mr. Maverick Lu, I’m not here for this, I need you to do something for me,” she tried to wiggle her way out of his embrace but his hold on her tightened.
“You have all you need, I can’t help much, unless…” he tried peeping into the opened buttons on her shirt, trying to see if he could see the fair B-__-bs but to his disappointment, he saw nothing.
“Mtch… stop staring,” she let out a low hiss and gently slapped his arm, a little annoyed. She should have worn a bunny costume but too bad she doesn’t have it.
This reminds her, she’ll try and add a lot of those into her collections in the future.
“Really? Why did you come here looking beautiful?” he asked with a small flirty smile on his lips.
“Stop talking nonsense, I’m not beautiful. I look…” Realizing she had been influenced by the demon in front of her, she cleared her throat and went back to the topic but Maverick wasn’t ready for any discussion that was out of what he wanted right now.
“Ahem, I’m not here for that. I want you to help me– hey!”
Maverick interrupted her by taking off her sunglasses. “You have been ignoring us for a long time,” he said.
By us, he meant Valen and him.
“Ah, it’s just a few days–”
She was interrupted again
“A day is long, it’s been close to four days,” he brushed the heavy bang off her forehead.
Jeslyn swallowed, ‘This man,’ she thought. “Well–”
“Didn’t you miss me?” he asked while looking into her mesmerizing eyes.
“Of course,” her voice strained and she bit her lips.
“Then? Should I take care of you?” he asked but his fingers were already on her buttons.
Jeslyn jolted when segzual sensation coursed through her. Her rotten husband was already fondling her B-__-bs before she could reply.
She pressed his palm to it, stopping him from squeezing her peaches.
“Mr. Lu, be decent for once… learn self-control.”
“Mhm,” he nodded with curled lips before he continued what his palm was doing.
*Few minutes later*
“I’ll continue after I’m done talking,” she went over to the CEO’s seat and sat on it with her legs crossed. She leaned closer to the desk, sampling her clean chest and black lace bra in Maverick’s face.
“You know why I’m here, right?” she asked. He knew that’s why he was cutting her off and wanted to drive her crazy with what she loved the most and then, after he had successfully placed her back on the ground, she’ll sleep off and before she knows, it was the next day, or probably some days later. Then, what happens to Piper after that, only God would know.
Seeing he was just staring at her without responding, she continued.
“She’s your sister, Maverick. I don’t know what she has done but, Plum, you can’t keep ignoring her. Even though you want to h@ťě her, please, rescue her first. With that, your Might would be sustained.
Everyone knows that you dislike your sister but if you help her this time, those lurking would know that you’re still unfathomable. Please, Plum, I’m begging you.”
“What will be my reward?” he asked.
“Eh?” Jeslyn frowned, “You still need a reward? can’t you do things for free?”
“I do,” he replied nonchalantly while walking towards her.
“What exactly have you done for me without getting rewarded?” she raised a brow.
“I don’t intend to be nice to you, wife.”
“Hahaha… oh really? Mr. Maverick, I’d like to inform you that I’ve seen a gorgeous man after my debut. He said he’d give me lots of money and do lots of good deeds for me,” she beamed.
Maverick turned the rolling seat and carried her off it, then placed her on the desk.
“My gun is cold and I have more money,” he smirked.
“Ahem! you can’t always ki|| people, Mr. Maverick. What if you go to jail?” she tried not to smile with the way he furrowed his brow when he heard ‘jail’, wasn’t something Jeslyn could ignore.
“Hahahaha….who stole your candy?!” she asked amidst laughter.
Maverick took off her bra in a swift and professional manner before lowering himself and taking one into his mouth.
“Plum, will you… help her?” she paused mid-sentence when his fingers went under her skirt.
Exploring what he has missed for about two weeks, he slowly nodded.
Jeslyn smiled before fully giving herself into the high heavens that were calling her.
Oh, so sweet!
Sometime later,
Jeslyn was panting after the ‘exercise’ while lying on Maverick’s desk with her skirt raised to her waist.
Maverick cleaned her up and helped her iron her clothes before fixing himself and carrying her out to his personal elevator.
In no time, Maverick was strolling out of his elevator on the ground floor.
Those at the reception all bowed but their minds didn’t leave the woman in his arms. That must be their madam, they thought.
The receptionist who attended to Jeslyn almost fell. Good thing she wasn’t rude or treated her boss’ wife with disrespect. She would have been dead by now.
With that grateful thought at heart, she bowed even more in appreciation that her boss’ wife is not a difficult woman to please.
But even so, a lot of ladies were bitter. Some thought that one day, their single father boss might look their way and recognize one of them to be his son’s mother but now, another lady has.
Despite how bitter or jealous they were, they didn’t date to harbor hatred or the intention to ki|| their boss’ woman.
…
“Your workers are professionals, especially your receptionist… that one with brown hair,” Jeslyn said as the car moved out of the company.
“You want to reward her?”
“If possible, but I’m poor,” she sighed.
Maverick chuckled and shook his head at his wife’s helpless expression.
“Why are you always poor?” he asked.
“Ah, my children needs money to remain on top,” she replied.
“I’m rich,” he interjected.
“But I’m not, my saving for their marriage.”
Maverick chuckled, “It’s still a long time from now.”
Jeslyn shook her head, “My daughter-in-law’s dowry shall be paid with a hefty sum so that she won’t try to take my son away from me,” she responded.
Even though Valen is still very little, Jeslyn has this inbuilt fear of a woman coming to take her son away from her… especially in a country like this where that’s a norm.
“Your son is different.”
“I know, but what if he marries a scheming woman who would h@ťě me? Such a woman would go all out to take Valen away all in the name of love,” she said sadly.
These days, there are too many pretentious ladies who h@ťě to have a mother–in–law even before they meet them. They are scared that their mother–in–law might be like their sister’s or friend’s mother–in– law, deliberately throwing out the fact that not everyone is the same.
“So, what can your money do?”
“Maybe after I’ve bought her heaven and earth, she might have a soft heart and understand that I like her because my son does.
Maverick glanced at his wife who was looking out the window and pressed her hand, prompting her to look his way.
“Trust your son to give you a daughter–in-law like you.”
Jeslyn smiled. Can he? Love is a weird thing. Would he abandon a woman he loves because he fears. that she won’t be able to treat his mother right?
Jeslyn shook her head and thought. If her son were to ever marry a woman who h@ťěs her, she would step aside if the woman is able to give her son real happiness. Also, if her daughter–in–law doesn’t blatantly disrespect her, she’ll be fine with their relationship.
However, If her daughter-in–law is the narcissistic type, like Madam Caroline, then her daughter–in–law shall be visiting the afterlife to tell her what hell looks like.
Meanwhile, Brian’s people had also taken the matter seriously. At first, they didn’t think it was important because his Assistant had Brian’s location but the next day, the location was suddenly wiped out from the map and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t get the location anymore.
The Assistant Immediately reported the matter to Brian’s Manager who sent tons of their men to the area, however, they found the farmhouse, but unfortunately, they couldn’t find Brian- the house was empty.
Brian’s people got scared. They couldn’t find Brian, what are they supposed to tell his mother? They’d be dead for sure.
The manager was so frustrated that he almost ki||ed the Assistant who covered for Brian.
“How could you not have told me what he was up to, what do you want me to do now?!” The young man roared. His face and eye had turned red from how much anger he had been holding in.
“I’m sorry, big brother, the Assistant apologized.
“Sorry? Will your apology change anything?!” he barked.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself down and think. If he returns to Brian’s family to seek help, it would be easier to find him but that would mean;
One, Brian’s identity would be revealed. Secondly, he and those that were in charge of watching the
Young Master would be ki||ed by his overprotective mother. And thirdly, another big fight would ensue between Brian and his mother. What a pain!
“Who did you say he came here to see?” the Manager asked the Assistant who had his head down.
“He was trailing Piper’s car, and it seemed Piper was going to see Feng Long”
“What Feng Long? I saw Feng Long and his Manager attending a charity auction yesterday, so what are you talking about?” the Manager frowned.
The Assistant was stunned for a while before his fear triggered some weird conjecture… What if Young Master Brian has been ki||ed?!
His eyes widened at that thought and he immediately lowered his head and started reprimanding himself in his mind. That’s an abominable thought, he dared not say it out loud!
While Brian’s people were having a hard time coming to a decision, a group of men in black and white, led by Code 10 walked into the area with cold faces.
Their momentum didn’t beat the men they met, standing around the farmhouse, but their composure was top–notch.
Without uttering a word to Brian’s people, Code 10 led three people into the house and scattered the others around the house to look for any clue they could.
Inside the house, Code 10 analyzed all he could before he found the underground basement. He opened it and went in. Undoubtedly, this was where Piper was kept.
His men searched around for wh@ťěver they could find, but except for Piper’s one earring that was lying beside the couch, they couldn’t find anything else.
“Pick that up with a handkerchief,” Code 10 ordered before he turned and left with his people.
Outside the house, Code 10 called his men back and they started to leave. Just then, Brian’s manager stopped him.
“I know you are Alpha Chaos‘ people and are here for Piper. I want to make a suggestion, can we join the team…Please?”
Code 10 gave him a once–over glance and spat; “No,” with that, they left.
“Big brother, what should we do now?” the Assistant asked. He was the most scared one right now because if the matter is brought to the family, he’d be the first to die at that vicious woman’s hands.
“We wait for two more days,” the Manager said before he gathered his men and also left the place. He was confident now that Brian and Piper would be found in no time since Alpha Chaos has taken the matter upon himself.
*Maverick’s mansion…*
Rex was pacing back and forth in the sitting room, looking annoyed while biting his nails.
Maverick was sitting on a couch with one leg crossed over the other and Damien was sipping wh@ťěver was in his white mug.
“I say, Rex, my eyes are hurting, look for where to sit.” Damien interrupted the quiet and gloomy atmosphere.
“How can I? Don’t you see that my brother is becoming soft? Why would he send people out to find Piper, that Ɓîtçh?!” he sounded aggrieved and offended.
Damien stared at the hyperventilating Rex and couldn’t help but chuckle, “She’s your sister, right?” he asked.
“Screw relationship! I don’t want that girl saved!” remembering what that girl had done to him, Rex got even more upset. Even though he had repaid her times ten already, Rex didn’t feel satisfaction.
