Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

486 Jeslyn, the dutiful daughter

It's been hours, so by now, the SINNERS had all arrived. Once their strategy had been looked into one more time, Maverick led his men in the opposite direction of where the illusion camp was. 1

Meanwhile, Hwang Min was still sleeping. He spent the whole night planning an attack that would completely bring Maverick to his knees.

The man and everyone else believed the plan would work without a doubt. So this morning, they were all relaxed, celebrating their upcoming victory.

However, the next moment, sounds of explosions went off and radiation killed some men.

The men were shocked, and so was Hwang Min who just jolted awake. He looked from his window and saw they were being attacked by the SIN and Lu faction.

"Damn it! That witch!" He cursed at Nancy. The man refused to believe that Nancy would give anyone the SINNERS because they meant more to her than the Coca farm.

Thinking that Nancy had gotten involved, he tried calling her but her number was unreachable.

Outside, all of Hwang Min's tanks and other deadly long-range weapons had been destroyed. What is left for him are the fighting jets.

Maverick ordered the jets to be blown to smithereens. Although it took a lot of work and also the sacrifice of more than a thousand men, the four fighting jets were brought down.

Now that there were no major obstacles anymore, Maverick's people started bullying their enemies, eliminating them like sardines.

Seeing the tables had turned, Hwang Min carved an escape route for himself but unfortunately, Maverick was waiting for him. The fight which was estimated to end in about two days, was won in five hours.

The SIN coordination. Both on air and land was something marveling. Thanks to their great support, Maverick didn't die.

Finally, after the war was over, the government got involved and took away Hwang Min for starting the fight.

Maverick could have killed Hwang Min but remembering his wife told him in the past that she'd kill her relatives herself, he held back. So when the police got involved, he handed Hwang Min to them. The PEACE wasn't very happy with the outcome but swallowed their dissatisfaction. After all, one tyrant has been thrown down from his throne. Who knows, someone else might kill Maverick tomorrow, they thought.

After the battle, the SINNERS lined themselves up. Although many died, their numbers didn't dwindle

that much.

Standing in front of thousands of men, was the clueless Jeslyn. She was having lunch with her husband when a report came to them that the SINNERS wanted her presence. "Master, we are ready to serve you!" They all bowed.

Jeslyn was speechless as she looked at them without knowing how to react. Even though she was their leader, she had no idea how to take care of such a large troop.

She shifted her gaze to Maverick and smiled. Why is she worrying when her husband is right beside her?

"Rise!" She instructed.

Later that day at the police station.

A police officer entered Hwang Min's cell and tried to bring him out of the cell.

"Come with me."

"Wh- who are you? What do you want with me?!" Hwang Min panicked. He has an idea of what would happen if he leaves here.

"Relax old man, I was asked to bring you out. A woman is here to bail you."

"Woman? Wh- what woman? I'm not going. You want to kill me!" He screamed. Bail him? Did they think he was stupid? His crimes are beyond bailing. He would be appearing in court by tomorrow, so how was bailing involved?

The police officer was so annoyed that he slapped him across the face. "Do you want to get me into trouble? Look," he pulled Hwang Min's hair and forced him to look at the others in the other cell. "You drew their attention. What if they rat me out?"

Hwang Min, who was slapped, couldn't believe that a mere policeman would do that to him. He gritted his teeth and endured. He has a plan to get out. Until then, he'd allow this police officer to live to his fullest.

"I'm not going anywhere," he said.

"I was paid by a woman named Diana to bring you, so you don't expect me to go back without doing the job," the police officer retorted with a frown.

"Diana? Who is Diana?"

"I don't know. You should go see her for yourself. I'm afraid that if you don't come with me, I'll have to force you. I can't refund the huge amount she paid me."

"I don't know who Diana is, so I'm not coming."

"Then, don't blame me!" The police officer hit Hwang Min with a baton on his side, followed by another swing. Hwang Min's roar filled the station but no one said a thing. Sometimes, they beat up prisoners to force them to speak the truth, so the police officers on duty thought the person who was getting beaten was a criminal who wouldn't confess.

By the door, Jeslyn could be seen sighing as her father was being manhandled like a criminal. She walked towards the cell and yelled. "Is this how you treat people?!"

The policeman halted and turned to see who it was. Jeslyn? What is she doing here?

"Je-Jeslyn? What are you doing here?" The officer asked in alarm.

"She's here to pay a visit. Is there a problem?"

The police officer almost peed himself when he saw Inspector Fin going over. "Senior!" He composed himself and saluted.,

Inspector Fin waved him out. After the policeman left, he opened the cell and allowed Jeslyn in.

"Oh my, you smell like shit. It hasn't been 24 hours since you were arrested yet... sigh...'

"What are you doing here?!" He thundered. Hwang Min asked weakly as he tried to get up from the floor, trying to mask the pain he was feeling

"Stop yelling. As you'll be going to court tomorrow, I know you can't miss a life imprisonment or death sentence, so I felt some compassion and thought to tell you where the coca farm is. Who knows, it might save you," Jeslyn smiled like a dutiful daughter.
