“Did you know that in the last letter, she wrote that she had given birth to a baby boy? When I received
it, everyone in the country was abuzz about the news of that scoundrel’s extravagant wedding to the
high-ranking official’s daughter. However, there was no mention of it in my sister’s letter! She was a
fool. A fool that kept protecting that jerk until her last dying breath!” Janice burst out tearfully. Even to
that day, the mere mention of that incident made her tremble with anger and sadness.
It hurt so much that she could barely breathe.
What he did was unforgivable and inhumane. He deserves nothing less than to be hacked into a million
tiny pieces!
No one knew the state Felicity was in when she had her child, but it was not too difficult to imagine that
she must have felt hopeless. That was because her son was sent away soon after that.
The baby was supposed to be her only source of hope in living on. In the end, he became the
Jadesons’ youngest son in The Ataraxy.
Thereafter, there was no news of Felicity ever again.
No one knew what happened to her.
When Janice went looking for her in Jadeborough and met the man who had almost become her
brother-in-law, he merely replied, “She’s gone.”
She’s gone? That’s it? She went looking for him while she was pregnant, and he thinks he can brush
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme off just like that?
Not believing a word he said, Janice confronted him with the letters Felicity had written. She warned
him that if he did not hand over her sister and nephew, she would expose his despicable actions to the
world!
Alfred’s career had just taken off, and he had just married a woman with family connections that could
further his career.
Hence, he was infuriated.
Alfred had Janice restrained, then sent someone to Xenhall to poison her father, causing him to
become paralyzed. It was sad to see the brave and daring man that even Jonathan had admired
greatly end up like that. After that, Alfred threatened to kill Janice and her parents if she ever revealed
anything.
It was a bitter pill to swallow, but Janice had no other choice than to let it go.
Empty-handed with a heart full of hatred and resentment, she left Jadeborough and returned to
Xenhall.
The terrible blow was too much for her parents, and they passed away not too long after that.
Janice was devastated. After her parents’ funeral, the hatred within her could no longer be suppressed.
Six years later, she finally went to Jadeborough again.
By then, Alfred was already in the White House.
That time, Janice knew better. Instead of going straight to Alfred, she made her investigations
discreetly and set her sights on winning over the only family who could take on the White House, the
Jadesons.
Hence, she thought of ways to get closer to Kingston’s father, who was from Gossamer Creek.
He was not anyone important in the Jadeson family. After all, the Jadesons in Gossamer Creek were
merely part of the extended family. Moreover, he was only in his twenties, so he did not have much
power or authority in the family, to begin with.
Nonetheless, Janice still chose him for only one reason. It was because she had learned of a
mysterious organization in Jadeborough called The Coffee Shop. They were recruiting skilled fighters,
and she wanted to join.
Kingston’s father was the best choice because he was not particularly close to the Jadesons.
Soon after, both of her wishes came true.
Two years later, she gave birth to Kingston and had also proven herself to be an invaluable asset to
The Coffee Shop. Thus, she was able to obtain more information.
As part of her job, she also had to work for Alfred.
“So, that was when you found out your sister’s son was at The Ataraxy?” Devin asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yeah. The Coffee Shop was indeed working for Alfred. However, he didn’t know that they had all of his
information. Eventually, I gained a reputation for being reliable and tight-lipped, and the task of keeping
an eye on Alfred was entrusted to me. That was how I found out he’d sneak off to meet Colton once
every three months,” Janice said with a satirical expression on her face.
How ironic indeed. He thought he had reached the pinnacle of his career and was untouchable. Never
in his wildest dreams could he imagine that the very people who worked for him would end up taking
his life.
Devin did not press further.
She did not need to say anything for him to guess what happened after that.
The Coffee Shop is the most central intelligence organization for those guys. Since she was a core
figure in the organization, she would’ve found out sooner or later that Colton is not her sister’s son.
Eventually, she would’ve also learned about Isaac. As for her sister…
Devin narrowed his eyes as he thought about Baylor, who joined The Coffee Shop too and wound up
suffering a terrible death because of that matter. At the same time, he was reminded of Alfred, who was
forsaken and used as a scapegoat.
It all became clear to him. That must have something to do with Janice.
Suddenly, the piercing sound of sirens filled the villa.
When Devin heard the noise, he looked up at once. “What’s that?”
Before he could get a clear look, Janice scowled. “D*mn it! They’re here! This man manages the place!
He must’ve triggered the security system!”
