The Kidnapped Bride

Back to the intense situation, Lucas signals his man to bring out the hostage man whom they have kept in their shelter for so long.

Since the man was Shawn's brother, he has received a lot of special treatment, in a bad way to be mentioned.

They wanted to know if the man was a spy or not. Although they received no real thing yet it was a thing to be seen.

Torturing enough so that the man opens his mouth, unfortunately, he kept his mouth and lips sealed.

Because of the same, his grandfather put him behind the bars.

His cell was different from others, with tight security letting no one meet the certain person. 

It has been more than ten years already but now, his brother, Shawn Johnson has taken the right time to get the avenge done.

The guards nodded their heads brought out a man, whose hands were wrapped with a rope.

His face was hidden with a black cloth, to avoid any kind of sending the route to the other party.

Seeing his brother out after long, Shawn's heart skipped a beat.

But with the help of the sunglasses he wore, it was better to hide everything that he was having inside his heart since no one was able to recognize the mental turmoil.

"You bastard! Where are you taking me to!? Leave me alone!" their uncle, shouted at the top of his lungs when was dragged out.

He had no clue where they would transfer him now, to any better jail?

"Uncle.." Charles's lips left their words when he saw his favorite uncle.

Many memories are associated with this man, of his childhood and teenage years.

His sight was already a big relief to him. But seeing him in such a condition, Charles had to suppress the urge of revenge.

The sound seems to calm down the man who was currently on the other side as he asked, still blindfolded," C..Charles..is...that.." 

"Yes, uncle! That's me! You're finally set free by them!" He shouted when he knew that his uncle was still in disbelief of the current location.

At that moment, Shawn turned his face in the direction of his son to make him understand what he meant by his gaze.

Getting a hint that his father passed in his direction, Javier nodded his head.

Recalling his talks back in the mansion, he insisted Ryan and Ellen bring out things from the back of the car.

Getting the instruments from the trunk of their car, Javier motioned them to keep the same stuff on the ground.

They brought out the things in their hand and kept them on the floor.

These were to measure and check if Lucas has embedded any kind of bomb on their uncle to destroy all of her lives at once. 

"Tsk tsk, so much love in between the family members. Isn't it?" Lucas's face twisted seeing the deep emotions that both the family tried to treasure in their hidden closet.

"If I knew that you have such soft emotions towards each other, I would have sent Mr. Johnson beforehand. You could have told me that you miss him so much... I won't have denied, you know."

Lucas's tone was instigating, but it didn't make much of the difference for Javier since the opposite man knows nothing except speaking nonsense.

"Stop Your drama, Lucas. We aren't here for your meaningless jokes and comments." Javier spoke, he wanna hurry to make sure that there isn't any kind of threat to their lives. 

"Uncle! Walk straight!" Javier yelled when getting his voice, his uncle started walking straight, step by step, making sure that doesn't fall on the ground.

His face was still covered with a black cloth yet but somehow with the help of the instincts, he finally cross the borderline and stepped into Johnson's state. 

"Alas… my land… I'm back...oh my god!" he can't believe himself that finally, after years, he is back in Johnson's state, leaving the land of Smiths.

Immediately, Ellen and Ryan did their work as they were assigned.

Using the instruments, they checked uncle's clothes to make sure there isn't anything harmful to either of them. 

"Don't worry, I haven't used any bomb," Lucas spoke when he notices their actions which didn't surprise him either.

"We can't trust a snake like you. You are famous for being a backstabber and I will not like to take any risk with myself." Javier replied with coldness in his voice. 

While the men were mainly sure that he was alright, Lucas came up with the prime most point, "Where is Jennifer then?" 

The voice he used was the most distant one. No one can deny that he turned serious, and his joke and funny side was totally replaced with a layer of aloofness. 

Shawn was going to reply first but before that, Javier stopped him from his hand and then went ahead to say, "You remember the deal, Mr, Smith?"

He didn't reply immediately and in return, Javier answered back, "Once they are completed, and the agreement of the land is signed, you will get your Jennifer Very soon. But till then, you aren't getting a glance at her face. But let me remind you, she has surely gotten beautiful while living with me for so long.."

His words held the strength to frustrate Lucas a little bit.

In the end, Javier's words made him furious ad well, "JAVIER!"

"Don't yell, it doesn't make any difference. I just state facts. Also, you should complete your deal as soon as possible. Otherwise, don't blame me if your dear bride falls in love with my beautiful state and...with me."

"If she gets married to me, you can kiss your ass after that, once she becomes my wife… legally."
