23 - Stunned
Out of nowhere he pronounced its name in his mind. Tears welled up in his eyes, and before he could take his life, he threw him aside. He was overcome with pain when his back hit the foot of the table. His gaze followed it as he slowly stepped towards the gun he had thrown on the sofa.
No!
He had to get ahead of it before it could kill him. He has gone through a lot of pain and fear in life, he can't die just by its hands. His mind could not accept that. He quickly ran the knife on the floor even though he was still writhing in pain. It was poisonous so he knew the poison was working when he touched it.
"Killing you isn't my thing, but I won't let a slut kill me," he said calmly and turned to face her holding the gun.
He was exactly holding that knife when suddenly gunshots rang out all around. The women squealed and ran outside as he suddenly turned to ice picking up the knife. She felt herself, she felt no pain but suddenly her vision blurred with tears. The man fell dead in front of him. His eyes were wide open as he stared at the ceiling as the bullet was buried in his throat.
God! His body was shaking. He's almost gone tonight. He really wouldn't be like that without Abhaya.
"Jacky!"
Jackylyn was stunned at the way his name was called. Its Yx, its Yx, okay? This alone will possibly help him with the assignment it has given. It was impossible for Theon to call his name, so big impossible!
"You okay?"
He sat up weakly. The man with no one else in front of him was Theon; holding a gun and wearing a cap and jacket. She cried especially. He did not know what to say during these hours of suddenly appearing and helping him.
"Let's get outta here." It led him to stand.
"Why are you here!" That's not a question, damn it. He criticizes the constant flow of it in his life.
It did not answer his question. He just looked at her carefully and wiped the tears from his eyes.
“Let’s get out of here. The police will be here in a few minutes and you probably don’t want to be seen coming here, do you? ”
She was silent at what it said. Okay, then he would ask about it when they left but before that, he returned the gun and equipment to the room where he left them.
He was also surprised to see almost lifeless people scattered in the hallway. Obviously everyone was asleep and there wasn’t a single blood from it. He looked at Theon and not a scar, it got nothing. Suddenly many questions entered his mind. Who is this really?
Jackylyn was just staring at the ceiling of her room when she received Yx's message on a secured site where the two of them were talking. He doesn't have a cell phone, he has no plans to have one.
"Congratulations."
He did not bother to respond to its message. Yeah, congrats. Congrats because if Theon hadn’t come last night, he might be a corpse now and being mourned. She gasped when she remembered their conversation last night with the man ...
"Who are you really? How did you know I was here? ”
"I don't think you changed your head when I said I'll follow you 24/7," he didn't want to answer as his gaze focused on the road. He drove the black car away, "If I weren't there, you probably get killed," he said firmly.
He noticed the clenching of its fist and the hardening of its form. He was silent for a moment and a few minutes before being able to speak.
"Who are you really?" he asked directly.
“And you, who are you? Ah yeah, you’re an undercover agent. Is this the reason why you ran away from my penthouse? ” there is no ambiguous answer to it. Full attention was still on the road and did not bother to glance at him.
She sensed angered on his tone. Wow, is it angry? In what particular way? “Drop me home. I need to fix things. ”
It did not nod, nor answer. It remained quiet and until they reached his apartment. He didn't let it open the door for him, he went straight down and went inside while Theon was left holding back his rage. He punched the steering wheel several times before he decided to leave and quickly pulled the car over ...
Theon already knew what kind of job he had, what world he was in. She shrugged and let him think what kind of woman she was. She doesn’t care after all.
He got up and went to the living room. He was lazy to get out of his apartment now so what he did was lock himself inside. He turned on the flat screen TV for a moment to watch the show but he was immediately stunned when Theon's face appeared while being interviewed on a popular Morning Show. She felt the sudden pounding of her heart in its beautiful eyes.
Hey heart, are you crazy? You look crazy ...
He felt the heart beat faster. He admits it’s more handsome in person than on camera. Especially when it smiles while talking to a host, he can feel him smiling every time the camera focuses on it.
No wonder why so many people are mad at him even though he is married ... He was shocked by that.
“Mr. Willoughby, give us advice on how to stay happy and contented in a young marriage. We all know how successful your life is in business and marriage ... Is there any formula? ” long litany of female hosts and obviously fascinated by the presence of the super cool looking male sitting on the single sofa.
The whole studio was screaming and thrilled even though the man was talking about marriage and being married when he gave a deadly smile. Napaismid especially Jackylyn and was thrown into the air. The shallowness of happiness. His hand itched to press the off button of the remote but his eye remained focused on the screen.
"Formula?" it laughed so much toying. “I don’t have that. I just love her more than my world and that ‘thing’ is enough for me. Loving her means life to me. ” And it gave a deadly smile that was repeated by the people there. The host was about to die of shivering and it went with the tilian.
But he, he did not shudder at what was his statement for his wife. When did he become shivering? The last thing he remembered when he was in its power was the pain he felt. Loving a Theon Willoughby on the other hand is one of the craziest and most ridiculous things he has ever done but it is also one of the reasons why he is here today and life is struggling. There are pros and cons and when it comes to her life but for her, she needs to avoid it the next day. It cannot always appear and disturb his silent world.
“The luck of your husband Mr. Willoughby. ”
"I'm luckier than him." It smiled deadly.
What he heard was loud. Her heart was pounding and it was like thousands of needles were pierced there. He bit his lip very hard and took a deep breath. He was fixing his system and when he recovered, he decided to turn off the TV but what he was going to do was left on the air when those in the studio shouted again when Theon was holding a guitar.
Wait ...
Suddenly his heart pounded as he began to tap the string of the guitar he was holding. It was as if his system was out of breath at the thought that he would see it sing again. He first heard its voice when they were on the yacht.
Her eyes began to water as she sang the song Ocean’s Away. If he’s not mistaken, this is what the two of them sang on his yacht. Even before his heart finally betrayed him again, nothing good had contributed to his brain, he turned off the TV completely and rushed to the top. This is not the time for him to reminiscing on the past.
He checked his laptop to see if any data came out from the person he was looking for. He was shocked to see that no one could tell him where Abhaya was. He really needs someone to talk to and this is the only one who can understand his situation but before he can understand, it is expected that he will get a lot of pinches first.
He was stunned when he received an unknown email message. He carefully opened that message. He was surprised to see, it was a picture of him sitting in a convenient store and eating cup noodles. He quickly entered the email using it and ch-in-ecked the location of the email but he could not find the location. He began to eat with nervousness. Someone was watching him, ‘that’s the first thing that entered his brain. He dived into the Gmail Company and took a few hours to sort through the information of whose email address it was from but there was no lead.
He sighed and calmed himself. Her weakness doesn’t help her at all. He quickly stood up and grabbed the jacket. He needs to earn Yx and talk to him personally. He was at the door holding the bag when suddenly armed men entered.
Shit!
His mind became alert but when he finally pulled out his gun, he got a strong stomach. He was thrown aside and writhing in pain. He tried to open his eyes to see what had happened but what happened next was that he inhaled the foul chemical.
