EPISODE 76
Jacy nodded. “You’ve been ki||ing Doyenne’s girls for a while now… you ki||ed two of her important girls recently and she’s not pleased. Because you’re Diana’s friend, Doyenne believed that you can’t hurt me because I’m Diana’s person. I’m sure she thinks that you still have a soft spot for Diana.”
Pink flattened her lips, “What is Diana’s state in the organization?” She asked.
“I’m not sure I can tell you everything. Just know that she’s losing her authority because she can’t give the sisterhood a child–”
“Why?”
“I just said I can’t –”
“Why?!!!” Pink thundered with anger radiating from her.
Jacy flinched and stuttered, “O– oh, c– calm down,” she swallowed her saliva and immediately started to confess.
“Diana removed her womb after what you did to her–”
Pink’s eyes dimmed and she swayed. She slowly lowered her gun as she stared at Jacy, lost for words for a long time before she gathered herself to ask, still, her voice broke.
“Wh– what are you talking about?”
Jacy sighed sorrowfully and reported, “Diana was being forced by Doyenne to get pregnant for Mr. Watson. Because she couldn’t betray the love you both shared, she took out her womb which angered Doyenne so much that…”
Jacy paused and turned her face away as her eyes turned watery. “Even to this day, Diana is getting punished for what she did.”
“B– but–” Pink couldn’t find the right words to use.
“Yes,” Jacy nodded. “Diana told Doyenne and herself that she did it because she couldn’t stand getting pregnant by another man. Haha,” she chuckled sadly.
Pink turned and was ready to go look for Diana but Jacy stopped her, “Diana has returned to the organization. She said you shouldn’t look for her…”
Pinked turned her head to gaze at Jacy who nodded. She took the white envelope on the table and stretched it to Pink. “She left a message for you.”
Pink struggled for a while before walking forward to accept it. She was about to leave when Jacy stopped her.
“You can’t just leave like that… give me a fatal injury and message to Doyenne, else she would think–”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Ahh! f_ck you, Alex!!!!!!!”
Pink side-eyed Jacy who was reclining on the couch and Mõ@ɲing in pain from the gunshots.
“You almost ki||ed me, f_ck you, you bastard!!!!”
Two bullets at the side of her stomach, and one bullet on her shoulder.
“My people will send you to the hospital to receive treatment before your people come.”
…
*Inside the car…*
Pink looked at the letter for a while before she tore it and pulled out the note from the white envelope and opened it to read.
“I’m not leaving this letter for your sake, but because of Jeslyn.
“Doyenne is only doing this to distract you. She already sent that person to your daughter and as we speak, the lady is by Jeslyn’s side.”
Pink froze. She could hear the sound of her racing heart as it thumped faster before it plummeted.
“Alex, you are fighting a losing battle. You can’t stop Destiny. What would be, would be. You should rest now and try to bond with your daughter. Tell her everything she needs to know. Then let her decide what she wants.
“Your daughter won’t be as heartless as us to leave her family or watch them die just to lead the sisterhood. She has a fighting spirit and also a great husband by her side. They might do better than us, so let them handle their problems.”
Pink stared dumbly at the letter for a long time even though she had finished reading it.
“What is it?” Yellow asked drowsily.
Not hearing a response from Pink, Yellow took the letter from her and also read it. She gritted her teeth in rage. “How dare they?!”
Pink closed her eyes, breathing in and out a few times. “Maybe you’re right, Jeslyn should be informed.”
Yellow nodded. “You’ll be fine.”
Pink turned to look out the window. Will she be fine? She had thought the same when Diana’s case happened.
Thinking of Diana, Pink’s mind flashed back to how their enmity started.
…
Diana was hers and her sister’s best friend. They did everything together and we’re happy.
However Doyenne was not pleased with how close the three of them were, so she tried to separate them several times.
Because she couldn’t, she laid a trap for them.
One day, Diana came back from her mission with excitement written all over her. It was rare for Diana to show so much joy.
When they asked her, Diana didn’t say and for a few months, her happiness didn’t diminish until her mission was over. That was when Diana opened up to them that she had found herself a true love.
While the twins were happy for Diana, Doyenne sent Alex on a mission to seduce a guy she picked and get a child from him.
Alex didn’t think much about it and carried out her mission as always. Unfortunately, or fortunately, the guy trapped Alex in his web of love.
Alex found out later that the guy she loved was the same guy Diana also loves.
Feeling betrayed, Diana fought with Alex and wouldn’t listen to reasons until Alex promised to stop seeing the guy.
Meanwhile, Doyenne refused when Alex brought the termination proposal of her mission to her. Alex even pleaded to be connected to another man but the stubborn Doyenne refused and resorted to thr_@ts.
Doyenne swore to ki|| Alex’s parents, Alice, and Diana if Alex aborts the mission.
Knowing that the woman never swore without carrying out her thr_@ts, Alex went back to the guy, at the same time, built a facade to make Alice and Diana think she was power–driven.
Her plan worked. Diana and Alice broke up ties with her and the only place she found solace was in the hands of the man she loved dearly.
After asking the guy about Diana, it turned out the guy had no idea who Diana was, except that Diana was dating his friend, then broke his heart which later sent the friend to a mental asylum.
That was where Alex got to know that the feelings Diana had for her man was one–sided.
Pink snapped back to reality as she slowly wiped the teardrop from under her right eye with the side of her index finger.
Memories of that man are one of the things she didn’t want to ever talk about.
Pink sniffed back her tears as she watched the night city. Jacy’s words played in her mind again and again.
“Yellow, how do you think my daughter would feel after I tell her the truth?” She asked.
“I’m not sure either.” Yellow shook her head and patted Pink’s shoulder. “But you have to tell her,” she concluded.
Pink shut her eyes. Tell Jeslyn? Yes, she would but she’s scared of what Jeslyn would do.
…
A few weeks had passed and everything seemed to be fine. Pink still couldn’t gather the courage to speak to Jeslyn even though she had seen Jeslyn a few times already.
She had also told Maverick what Diana said and Maverick had doubled the shadow guards around Jeslyn while secretly searching for the person that was sent to Jeslyn but couldn’t find her no matter how hard they tried.
Who are those beside Jeslyn in the first place?
Her manager, her Assistant, and Lolita. Those three ladies have clean backgrounds and nothing seems fishy. Even though that was so, Maverick’s eyes were glued on Jeslyn’s Assistant because, to him, she was likely to be the spy.
Although the Assistant looked innocent and naive, Maverick doesn’t base his judgment on appearance.
…
On this day, Jeslyn decided to heed Maverick’s advice and go see her father in jail as her mind has been suffering for days, trying to find out why Brian wasn’t leaving her mind.
Disguised as VJ Cute, Jeslyn arrived at Bluehair Airport with Code 5 and his team. She walked majestically to Maverick’s private plane but before she entered, her eyes drifted to the side and she spotted Aircraft with the name; F2220.
Her mind jolted. ‘Was that not the aircraft she took the other time that got bombed? Why is it–’ While thinking, she remembered how crazy her brother-in-law could be.
Rex must have got another aircraft and given it the same name as the first one.
“How can you be such a bully, Rex? Won’t those who lost their loved ones in the first F2220 be traumatized when they see this new aircraft?” She sighed at the thought of giving Rex an ear full when she got back.
She got into the exquisite private plane that gave Maverick’s vibe; dark and gloomy interior.
Jeslyn shook her head in defeat. She thought her husband would have changed the interior already. She turned around and searched for Code 5 with her gaze before she said to him;
“When we get back, get people to make changes to this plane or… don’t bother, I can ask my husband for a private plane of my own. I don’t want it to look as if I’m changing things about him.”
“Yes, ma’am,” Code 5 bowed his head slightly.
…
The plane arrived at Rose City in one piece. Jeslyn first went to the Columbarium to pay respect to her family before heading to the prison.
Of course, it was not the visiting days but thanks to money and influence, she was able to enter without a huff from anyone.
As Jeslyn walked through the corridors, memories of her stay there flashed through her mind.
The way she held her towels and toiletries while walking behind the wardeness, the way inmates were stretching out their hands from the bars and trying to drag her to themselves, and the way some were laughing, mocking and teasing, all flooded her mind like an erupted volcano.
Instead of feeling disgusted or angry, a small smile found its way to settle on her lips.
Thanks to this jail, she found Pink and Yellow, two of the dearest people in her heart.
She didn’t regret going to jail because of her happy memories with Pink and Yellow, neither was she happy to be an ex-convict. But all the same, the few weeks in jail taught her different things.
They arrived at the front of a visiting room Jeslyn after the huge door was pushed open. As she walked in, her mind subconsciously compared the dark room to the one she used back then.
Sitting behind a desk with cuffed hands placed on the empty table was a messy–haired man with disheveled clothes. The man had his head down and his face was shielded from Jeslyn’s sight by his long and uneven hair.
Jeslyn’s lips subconsciously curled up at seeing her father’s state.
“Prison looks good on you, Mr. Wales. Had I known, I would have sent you here a long time–”
“You witch!” Mr. Wales lurched forward with his fingers clawed, ready to tear Jeslyn’s face with his sharp nails. But before he could take a few more steps, Code 5 who was standing behind Jeslyn, raced forward and sent a powerful kick to Mr. Wale’s right leg, forcing the man to fall on his right knee.
“Awww, Mr. Wales, why are you half kneeling?” She chuckled. “If you want to pay respect to this successful daughter of yours, you should do it well,” she smiled.
Just when she finished saying that, Code 5 kicked Mr. Wale’s thigh from behind, causing the man to groan and kneel on both knees.
“Hahaha… father, why are you doing this? I’m your daughter. You shouldn’t be kneeling to me,” she chuckled.
Mr. Wales was already glaring at her. If eyes could ki||, Jeslyn would have long been dead by now.
The man gritted his teeth. Just when he was about to stand up due to Jeslyn’s mockery words, he heard her say;
“But since you chose to welcome me with your knees on the floor, what else can I say? Hahaha…” Jeslyn walked to the chair opposite her father and sat down.
Mr. Wales felt his life was ending. He was so mad that he simply couldn’t find the best words to say to this daughter, so he stayed silent instead.
