BXBX NOVEL Chapter 234 Son in Law
234 Son in Law
Janine was getting frustrated. Francisco isn't well now. Maybe because of the effect of the torture EPUA gave to him. Glenn opens the door for her as he drove the car to the nearest mall. She was walking ahead from Glenn with his mind somewhere else.
"What happened to Francisco while I was away?" She asked.
"He insisted that he saw Anastasia in the Market."
"What?" Janine turn to him. Glenn said.
"Anastasia is dead." Glenn mutters. Janine look around and ensured no one was watching them. "I check the body twice and it was her." He said. "Francisco can't know about this. Or else everything we planned will go to waste." He murmur in her ear.
"I know that." She said. "I'll go to the bathroom." She said. "Buy me coffee." She went to the bathroom. It's empty since there are lots of people in the mall. She wash her hand the lights click and turned off. "Who's there?" Then one of the lights in the cubicle was switch on. She exhales and look around. There's no one with her.
"Do you really like enjoying two men at the same time?"
Her cat hairs stood hearing that soft yet powerful voice like a whisper in the wind. But there's no wind inside the bath. A woman was standing just behind her. Few paces away. She can see her silhouette in the mirror. Tall, slender yet hour glass body. The smell—it was the perfume that Anastasia would wear.
"Anastasia…" Janine mutter and she turn to her. The woman was still standing there yet she can't see her face.
"That's right. I am living in your head, Janine. What you did was unforgivable… You took my husband from me."
"That's because you aren't better than me!"
"Really?" Anastasia asked mockingly. "Then why would Francisco want me and get obsessed over me that he can't even get over me. I am still in his head."
"Get lost!" Janine scream. Her heart was racing. She's just imagining her. She isn't alive. The silhouette turn around and left the bathroom. It took Janine few seconds to respond as she storm outside and found out no one was there but the cleaner. "Did you see a woman, tall just come out from the bathroom before me?" She asked. The cleaner creased her brows and shook her head.
"No one came out from the bathroom but you, Ma'am."
Janine was shaking as she left the bathroom and found Glenn with her coffee coming out from the Starbucks. Then she approach him and grab his arm.
"You saw her?" she asked him looking like crazy fellow.
"Saw who?" He asked.
"Anastasia." She said as she look around. She feel dizzy now.
***
Anastasia was laughing as she watched it through the people that has cameras that they wear. She sat and crossed her legs inside the van with a sigh. She knows too well how to play games. She hold the locket on her neck. She took it from Sabrina while she's in coma. She owns it. It was the latest photos of her triplets and her husband. She wanted him back, if he would want her back.
"Let's go." She said. She left and the car drove back to the villa—five hours drive from the mall. Then a car suddenly corner them.
Anastasia ready her gun. Ezekiel taught her to fire when she was just a teenager. Now, she practice a lot for her safety. The car that stop in front of them was Roll Royce. The person came out and she looks familiar. Then another person came out.
"Ma'am stay here."
Gabriel knock on her window. Anastasia's heart melt. Gabriel knows. The man behind him look cool with ash brown hair.
"Mom," Gabriel calls. She bit her lips.
"Let him in." She said.
"But your father."
"I will handle it."
One of her body guards open the van and Gabriel look straight at her. Anastasia look back. Gabriel enter and sat down beside her. He holds her hand.
"I finally meet you."
Anastasia hugged him like her long-lost son.
"Gabriel…" Anastasia push him a little and took his hands. "How's my Brina?"
"She's fine. She's healthy now. The baby is healthy as well."
"And my handsome princes?" She asked.
"Don't worry, they are good as well." Gabriel look into her. She looks like Sabrina—a little of it but Sabrina look like her beautiful grandmother. Anastasia was mixed with Mondragon. "Mom, I know that you are doing this for everyone's safety… but Sabrina. I am worried."
Anastasia's tears started flowing like waters in the river. Gabriel wipe it away.
"Gabby, I like it when you call me mom. I am so sorry about Sabrina. I have to obey my dad… I lost my memories not untilyears ago when I saw her in New York. It brought back all of my memories. I want to go to them and get back my husband… but if I did—I am afraid that Janine would kill them and poison them."
"Sabrina is clever. She survived on her own. She's the strongest woman I know and now I know where she got it from. I just want to see you… I am ready for everything you planned. I am ready to settle everything for you to see them get tortured, but let's lessen this for a few months. And wait until Sabrina gives birth. So I could prepare her. You can play with them every time you want. But be careful not to show yourself to them so soon…"
"I will. I will be careful."
"Okay." Gabriel hug her and kiss her forehead. "Mom, I will protect Sabrina and our family. Soon, we will all be together. You can see your grandchildren soon enough."
"Thank you, Gabby." Gabriel left an old phone to her.
"You can contact me here anytime. No one can detect you from this but me. If something bad happened just press the red button from the back it will automatically notify me directly."
"You don't have to—"
"I promise my wife to protect you and everyone she loves. And that promise is my duty."
Whiskey look around and then he whistle. "There are incoming few kilometers away." Whiskey said as he got a call from the agent guarding the kilometer.
"I have to go." He said. She nodded.
Anastasia clutches the old phone to her chest. Gabriel found out. He found her and he wasn't that selfish for her not to see her children.
