Chapter 118
"These trucks are still trailing us" I alerted Jaden's attention.
"Come on, that's not possible" Jaden smirked.
"Stop the car and wait let them drive past us" I suggested.
"Ok" He said as we halted beside the road. To our surprise The two black trucks stopped at the same time.
"They're really following us, we've got to lose them" Jaden said as he drove off pretty fast, I glanced at his speedometer, he was way past 200. My heart raced as I saw the trucks were gaining on us, "Move faster" I screamed in a loud voice.
"We can't lose them, we just have to destroy these trucks" Jaden said as he placed his foot on the clutch.
"And how do you intend to do that?" I asked in haste.
"Watch and learn," Jaden said as he took a sharp bend.
The first Truck surpassed the sharp bend but the second didn't, it went through a tree.
Tension filled my body as bullets sprayed through the back glass, shattering it into pieces.
I bent my head down and picked up a bullet, it was a serum filled bullet and had the trademark L. P.
_L.P. means Lord Perry, he sent assassins to kill me and his own son_
I placed the bullets in my bra, holding it as evidence in order to make my accusations valid when I tell it to Jaden.
"Jaden we can't go through that space, it would crush us" I said out of fear.
"Just trust me" Jaden held my hands.
"You better surrender now or we'll serve your dead corpses to The Alpha" That Voice sounded familiar but I couldn't remember where and when I listened to that voice.
Jaden placed all his energy on the clutch, I closed my eyes hoping that this wouldn't be the end of my life.
"I told you to always trust me" Jaden said he parted his eyelids to see that we had survived.
"Let's get out of here" I screamed.
The road wasn't far from home.
Shayne was shocked to see the level of damage that our car was in.
"What really happened to you two?"
Everyone was scared at the number of holes that appeared on the car.
Jaden didn't bother to answer Shayne's question and so was I. We walked into the house, Lord Perry's eyes were red in anger, staring at me precisely.
I knew he was the one that tried to attack me but I wondered why?.
"We narrowly escaped those bloody killers. I'm sure it's one of our rivals"
"We had slim chances yet we took them and we saved ourselves. You saved my life Jaden, thank you so much" I appreciated him for his driving skills and the surprising level of courage and bravery. "I'm really famished"
"And so am I"
"Stay here while I make something for us to eat" Jaden walked out of the room.
"Ok Chef Jaden" I scoffed.
I pulled out the bullet from my bra.
_I'm really wondering why Lord Perry wants me dead. Does he know about the plans of stealing the weapon? There's no possible way that he knows about it_ Lord Perry barged into my room, I pulled the blankets over my body.
"Take a look at this cheap whore. You're just a slimy bitch who's pregnant for my son. You got lucky this time, you're better off dead"
"I knew it was you all along, you tried to kill me because I'm carrying your son's child. What kind of a father are you?" I retorted, feeling like strangling him to death.
"The kind of father that tries everything in his book of tricks to see that those wretched folks don't get something they don't deserve" Lord Perry divulged.
"Well it seems your book of tricks isn't working on me, try it somewhere else" I said in a rude tone.
"I'll just kill you here" Lord Perry pulled out a loaded gun from his robe. He was about to pull the trigger when Jaden knocked.
"What really happened out there Hailey? How's the baby? Hope he's doing fine?" Lord Perry acted up because his son walked in.
Jaden noticed the puzzled look on my face so he asked
"Is everything okay?..."
I titled my head upwards and downwards.
He continued
"Ok, father, someone's planning a huge attack on me and my family. I'll get to dig out the devil behind the mask. They nearly had our head severed with their bullets"
"It's all good at least you and your... Family survived it. You'll need security assistance right?" Lord Perry suggested
"No need for that father, we can do well on our own. Anyone is gullible at this point so it's hard to trust someone with that great task" I loved Jaden's response, I was sure that he didn't even trust his own father. "Suit yourself son, I'll be downstairs if you need me" Lord Perry uttered walking out of the room.
"Ok father," Jaden replied.
"I made pasta, you'll like it I promise" Jaden said as he placed the tray in between us.
"We have to tread with caution in this house or better still get another apartment"I suggested getting tired of Lord Perry's words.
"That'll be too risky for you and our baby... Let's stay here for the meantime while I figure out information myself" Jaden divulged in a mild tone.
"Can you get the pictures of the weapon and have them sent to Dimitri?" I asked hoping he would say yes.
"Definitely. Let's eat, the food's getting cold" Jaden agreed to my proposal, I was happy that he was letting off the hate for Dimitri.
