The Kidnapped Bride

{The life changing drama begins..} 

The horse rides are very peaceful making everyone feel calm.

The view to witness was already making them feel as if nature was the best thing ever!

No one can deny that it was indeed refreshing to go on such a ride in the morning.

As the ride back to their mansion will be long too, everyone returned to the campground and started packing all the stuff.

Either it is tents or barbeque stands, the entire thing was put inside the cars.

Helping others in the same, Jennifer was going to keep things back in the car when Austin appeared in front of her out of blue with an anxious look written all over his face.

"Jennifer.. I have something to talk to you about.." she had no idea what was there to even talk about but this gave her a negative feeling, to begin with.

Looking around her, she saw everyone busy with their respective work and found the perfect opportunity to have some conversation behind everyone's back, "Follow me to the car and.. hold them."

She handed him some of the boxes and asked him to follow her near the car where she slowly and slowly put the stuff. 

Yet in the middle mumbled in between her breath, "Go ahead.. speak." 

"I have some news from my people. It isn't a good one." If he comes directly to her, she had expected that it won't be good in any way.

Maintaining her expressions she raises her eyebrows, signaling him to say and he has her all attention. getting a positive reply from her, he coughed once to begin.

"I heard that some people have arrived from your state, in this state. Although I'm not exactly sure it is possible that.. These are the ones you will like to see." 

There was actually no change in her body language and facial expressions. But at the same time, internally, she can feel her hand frozen with coldness appearing in them.

'People from my state? Here? What are they doing here?!?' She was full of doubts and tons of questions where her mind was making thousands of wrong assumptions.

It was wrong to say that she wasn't afraid that her parents will be exposed but it won't be correct to say that she felt fear just because of being caught

Rather it was more to begin. It was.. some unknown feelings.

"What else?" Asking him with much timidity tone to which he replied back, "As per my reports, these people are more likely to say from your state and they are here to get you back.."

"Name." was all that she demanded it against when he had to think twice before slipping the beans.

"Mr. David Taylor and Mrs. Amelia Taylor.."

It was enough to make Jennifer's eyes wide in fear and shock. instantly moving her head in his direction to stare at his face to find the same seriousness. "Y..you aren't joking, right?"

"Sorry, Jen, but this isn't a joke. I told you what I got to know... your parents are here, in this state but they are hiding, I believe it is Lucas who has helped them." 

Was she relieved to hear that? She had no such idea but her eyes were filled with tears. The feeling of being emotional started to make her nose red, but it was hard to control. "M..muma papa.. are you here?"

Her voice was timid but the mixed emotions were always going inside her mind. Her parents here? How was she supposed to be calm?

Slightly nodding her head, he witnessed Jennifer on the verge of crying. Yet he knows that this would be the worst time to express her emotions. "No, please don't cry.."

"I..' I'm not crying. It's.. that they are really here?! But why?" As she's in the dilemma, what Jenifer forgot was how badly her plan will be influenced by their presence now.

"I don't know t-" 

"Jennifer! Are you done putting things?" Javier's voice made both of them alerted when she signaled him to keep his shut mouth. Walking towards Javier, leaving Austin alone, she helped him as usual.

Her emotions are not stable but she never acted badly fine of others. Smiling and talking as usual she never let her demeanor be changed because these people have eyes as sharp as eagles.

It won't be hard for them to see through her and if they do, her parents will be in desperation to get her back and make her wed Lucas.

At last, the work was already done and they all sat in the car and departed towards the main mansion. Since it was a little bit of far, it took them almost the entire day to reach up there.

Throughout the ride, Jennifer was only thinking about her parents and.. their sudden appearance in this state. When her emotion calmed down a little bit, did she sense that it will negatively impact her steps here?

'They are here to take me back? But I don't have a wish to go..' how was she supposed to say these words to her parents who took so much risk to bring her back..but she is here.

As they got closer to the mansion, Jennifer's emotions started to be settled. Unfortunately, Austin's words entered her ears from behind.

"Um.. am I the only one seeing security around the villa tonight?" On his comment, her eyes traveled to feel the same.

"Hmm.. I feel that too. Javier, why is there so much security?"Jennifer looked shocked too and asked Javier who was currently driving the car.

But for the very first time, he didn't say anything in response. Rather, he stayed mum on her question which puzzled her a lot. "Javier? I asked you something.."

"You will know." 

The same three words answer wasn't enough to satisfy her curiosity, but then, what came into her view are the cars parked in front of the villa.

Those cars were expensive to see, all the big models such as Audi, BMW, Tesla, and whatnot!

Yet the sudden uneasiness arose in her mind. There was really something wrong here about the entire situation when subconsciously her heart started to pain a lot.

She started to trace her hands across her heart with a slow mind.

"These.. cars.. who do they belong to Javier?"

But instead of his voice, what she heard was Emily's excited tone, "My family is finally here! Oh God, finally they are here to visit the Johnsons!"
