The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 19 - Intentionally

Javier saw how much her eyes were longing to see her family. The love in her heart for her loved ones was clearly reflected on her face. He had no idea that just his way of making her meet her family would excite her to this extent.

"Sure. I will ask the people on my team to know about your family's location. Give me two minutes." Jennifer wasn't expecting much from him. Though he was the man of his words yet, if this was in his control or not, she was clueless.

Moreover, how will he make her see her parents? Through camera? She wanted to ask further, to extinguish her inner curiosity and dozens of questions that were raised in her mind. But at the same time, her instincts stopped her. She didn't utter anything anymore and let him carry on the work he was doing.

She saw how he dialed a specific number and exchanged a few talks, in their own code language which didn't make any sense to her.

Later on, he hung up immediately and started doing the work on the large screen that is presented in front of them. With the help of a keyboard, he types too fast which runs out of her brain when she tries to see what he was actually trying.

'Looks like he is an expert in these types of things. Must have learned so many things at an early age only..' after all, how can she forget that he is a Johnson heir. All the powerful families make their children learn special skills and this is one of them.

Just in a few more minutes, he spoke, "Look like you're quite lucky. Your family is sitting in your house's living room together. Your parents, brother, and everyone..seems like you can see them."

"Can I also hear what they are talking about?" she nervously asked. But in return, she received a shook from his head, "No, you can't hear them. I don't have that technology. This was all just to keep an eye over...leave it."

He stopped in the middle, before leaving the topic. Her all attention was directed on him and it was pretty obvious for her to know that he didn't finish his sentence. He had something else to reveal but stopped himself from revealing it.

'Such a mysterious guy he is! Like really.' Jennifer controlled her urge to roll her eyes at that point and just waited for him to speak something else. After another two minutes, he pointed at one of his large screens, "keep your eyes there. You will be seeing your family."

Her excited level was no less. She was on the top of the moon to know that after a big distance of two days she can finally witness what her parents were doing after her being kidnapped, from her special wedding!

It was giving her goosebumps. Though she was nervous at the same time, it never stopped her from jumping on her feet and rubbing her cold hands.

Just in a few more seconds, the screen flashed and came into her view were her parents and brother sitting in their living room.

From their faces, she already guessed that they weren't in a happy mood. Her mother was holding her head as if she was frustrated and her brother was walking from side to side in worry. Meanwhile, her dad was speaking but due to no voice, she can't hear their present conversation.

...

On the other hand, in the other states.

Amelia and David returned from the big mansion of Lucas to their house. It wasn't as big as other influential people. Still, it was his dear home which they made with their hard-earned money.

"This girl's disappearance had already caused a lot of chaos. Everything is going from our hands. Yet bad luck didn't seem to leave our family!" Amelia sharply commented and held her forehead in stress.

"Exactly mother. Who would have thought that my elder sister would be kidnapped!? But doesn't the elder sister know how to fight? She let those people take her so easily?" Jennifer's brother commented back, Emir.

David took a deep breath to cool his urges, "But she is not with us anymore and her absence is costing us a lot! Lucas has strictly said that till the time Jennifer doesn't return back to the places, he will not spare us a single penny that he promised us earlier!"

David was getting angrier by what Olivia told them. How can he forget that Olivia passed an abusive remark to them, just in the name of being Lucas's secretary?

The insult was too high, not only for David but also for Amelia, "I agree with you. They are thinking of themselves too high! Did you see the smugness on Olivia's face? as if she was any queen! Hmph!"

The anger in the family was evident on their respective faces. No one was able to digest that their daughter wasn't with them. The consequences of her kidnapping are very high.

But Emir didn't seem to be convinced at all. He stood up from his place in frustration, "Why should we be payable to Lucas?!? The elder sister is kidnapped because of Lucas's enmity with others! He behaves with us as if we have kidnapped our own family member."

No one uttered a single sore anymore. They all kept silent because it was all worthless to speak out about anything against Lucas.

Moreover, no one will listen to their plea at any cost. After all, in their eyes, Lucas can never be wrong. Even if it is wrong, they won't utter something to be in his good books

He is a Smith and speaking ill about him won't make them gain anything in return. But Amelia was still in distress. She did say that Jennifer was kidnapped but how can she forget the last conversation that Jennifer and she had in private!

'I would be glad that you aren't a part of this, Jennifer, intentionally… otherwise..'
