THE LAST MINUTE GROOM : CHAPTERS 61 – 70

BY SIR ZACH

CHAPTER 67

“After ratting me out, you went to get dressed? Interesting.” Damien chuckled and stood up with his gun pointed at Emilee.

Emilee didn’t flinch. She continued to walk until she got to stand in front of him. “Damien, you need some rest. You have been making irrational decisions for three days straight and it’s been bad for your establishment.” She gently pushed the gun away from her face with a finger and punched his naked chest lightly, making him sit back in his chair.

Damien curled his lips. “You vixen.”

“Yes, I am your vixen.” She sat on his lap and started to play with his ***. “The Vixen you created.”

“You have been scheming against me,” Damien stated with conviction.

“You have ruled the empire for a long time. Allow someone else to take over.”

“And you caused this mess behind my back.” He affirmed.

“It took me five years to prepare for this day.”

“You are a witch. Hehehe…”

“Just like you who schemed against Chaos for 8 years and is still ongoing, I’m considered nothing.”

“We both know my death will cost you more than you seek, so what are you planning to do to get the throne from me?” He asked languidly.

“Wrong question. It should be, when did you achieve your plans to take over.”

“Hahahaha…. Impressive. Do tell me.”

“It’s simple. You’ll sign out the transfer of your empire to me, make your loyal men see me as the new leader, and quietly retire.”

“Oh, you already converted some hahaha…Brazen witch. I like that. However, you need more than words to get me to do what you want, isn’t that so?” He raised a brow with his lips in a smile.

“That’s right. You are living with ATOM in you ….”

Damien’s eyes flashed but he did nothing to her. “You have the antidote?”

“I envy you, Damien. You are so smart that I want to tear your brain apart and see how it was made. It’s a pity your anger ruins things for you.”

Damien nodded. “Where are the documents?”

“Awww, so obedient.” She patted his cheek and placed the documents on the table. She watched him sign them and he also called his people to obey only her.

After she grabbed the documents and was about to leave, she pressed his brotherhood and said, “this thing is good and you are great but if only you treated me nicely with it and didn’t ruin my soft spot.”

Just when she was about to break his treasure, he grabbed her wrist. “Emilee, don’t go too far.” Damien wasn’t angry, he was calm, too calm that Emilee got a fright. However, she didn’t want to show it. Power was now in her hands and she wanted to show her dominance, starting with him.

“You don’t need it… for now.” She applied pressure and “snap!”

A snapping sound was heard. Damien hissed and instinctively grabbed Emilee by the neck and shot up from his seat. He pushed her towards the wall, hitting her back against the hard wall.

Emilee whimpered and fear gripped her as she saw the venomous look in his orbs. He will kill her. Her brain immediately registered.

He stood in front of her, towering over her like a mountain, despite her heels. Damien’s hold on her neck was so tight that he cut off her intake of air. He watched as her face turned red while she fought against his strong hand. He was in pain, so much pain that he wanted to just roll on the floor but before then, this witch had to suffer.

It was not like manhood can literally break though, but ‘breaking’ an erect manhood leaves a severe injury on the tissues or pipes.

Right now, Damien was using all his self-control to suppress the pain just to see the despair on this Vixen’s face. However, he wasn’t going to kill her.

He had known of her petty schemes all these while and was only playing along to know how deep her fangs had dug into his empire.

Damien wasn’t on the list of the Musketeers for a woman like Emilee to pull down. He needs her right now to get rid of his problems, so…

Damien only let her go when her eyes were struggling to stay open. He shoved her to the side, prompting her to hit her head on the side of the headboard before she lost consciousness.

Damien staggered back to the sofa and fell unceremoniously on it. His brotherhood hurts and the pain was getting unbearable. The veins on his forehead were popping out as he gritted his teeth so hard that his gum started to bleed. Who was Damien to scream in pain? He’d rather die than cry out in pain.

He patted the desk in front of him, searching for his phone, and accidentally spilled his drink. Damien wasn’t looking because his eyes were shut as he tried to hold in the pain. Finally laying his hands on the phone, he unlocked it and used a voice command, albeit with difficulty because he was breathing heavily and his words were almost inaudible.

When Emilee woke up sometime later, she couldn’t find Damien anywhere on the island. However, all the men accepted her as the new boss, and everything she wanted, she got, but she couldn’t be happy because the fact that Damien could not be traced meant danger. So Emilee decided to go with her plan B.

Jeslyn on the other hand had been following the news on Country M and she was feeling restless knowing that Maverick and Valen were still there. She couldn’t understand why there was so much unrest in the Country and to make things worse, Maverick seemed to be among the cause of unrest.

His number has been unreachable for two days now and today being the third day, she couldn’t stop calling him. She has been feeling restless since she woke up and she can’t place her fingers on why.

“Rex is also busy. I called the house and Riya but no one had seen him. What is going on?!”

Jeslyn was pacing back and forth in her sitting room while biting her nails with her phone in hand. The screen showed that Maverick’s number was on dial.
[ Sorry, the number you called is not available at the moment, please try again later… ]

Jeslyn hissed and canceled the call. “What is wrong with you? Your network is bad. How can Maverick’s phone be unreachable for three days? That’s absurd!”

“Little bunny, calm down. You are making me dizzy.” Yellow said while rubbing her temple.

“How can I calm down when I can’t speak with anyone? I can’t even speak with Pink.” She pouted.

“I called Pink and she said your husband is fine. Don’t worry about him. Nothing can happen to him.”

“How sure are you? What if they take the fight to the hospital where Valen is?”

Yellow chuckled, “why do you think your husband started this chaos in the first place?”

“He started it?” Jeslyn frowned in displeasure.

Yellow sighed and shook her head. “The earlier you stop seeing your husband as a good person, the better for you. He started it because he just found out that Damien Yu was the cause of Valen being in that situation.”

Jeslyn froze. A moment later she knitted her brows. “What do you mean?”

“Damien Yu and Mulan had been working together in the sense that Mulan wanted to be the Boss’ wife. She had had her eyes on the boss right from when they were children and Damien was the first to know. The knowledge became handy to Damien when he smelt Boss would be his rival, so he approached Mulan with friendship.
Mulan didn’t understand what he wanted but they became friends and he started to ignite the fire in Mulan.

When Valen was brought to Boss, Mulan wanted to give up but Damien refused. Then she planned to kill Valen, however, Damien still refused. Then he told Mulan to be Valen’s caretaker. By making Valen love her, she will automatically become your husband’s wife.
So, Mulan went to learn all she could about caring for kids, However, she couldn’t hide her malicious intentions from Boss which was why he brought you over.”

“How did Damien or whatever incur Maverick’s wrath?” Jeslyn asked.

“Yeah, Damien came up with the idea to ingest Valen with ATOM. He instigated Mulan to take the child out to be kidnapped. He also provoked Davis Xu to carry out the experiment. Also, Damien was the reason Vera abandoned Valen in the hospital … so your husband is right to be angry.”

Jeslyn slowly blinked. Her brain was messy. Most of what Yellow narrated surprised her, but the one that weakened her the most was that Vera wasn’t a bad woman. She didn’t run away like they all thought. Meaning, she deserved to return to her family… and her?

Jeslyn bit her lip and turned around to head to her room. She needed to calm down so she could think straight.

Yellow watched her leave and sighed. “Little bunny, the situation is getting sticky. Hope you won’t break.”

“Eldest Miss, I brought the… where did Miss go?” Nanny Martha came out from the kitchen with a bowl of piping hot chicken soup.

“She’s feeling sleepy… What did you make? Bring it, let me take a bite.”

“It’s for Miss.” She refused.

“Little bunny won’t be leaving her room anytime soon. It will go to waste if you don’t let me have it.”

The Nanny sighed and handed the dish to her. She was right. Nanny Martha doesn’t like to give Jeslyn food that was left to rest for hours.
…

*Inside her room…*

Jeslyn was playing with her phone, dialing Maverick’s number and ending it at intervals. She didn’t even know what she was doing because her mind was filled with many thoughts.

It was she who said she wanted to divorce Maverick so he could reunite with Vera, but now, she couldn’t even conceive that idea anymore. Why?

It was her who said she wanted Valen to grow to love his mother but it’s the same her who can’t accept for Valen to recognize another woman as his mother. Why?

If this isn’t selfishness, what is it?

Jeslyn sighed and returned her mind to her phone only to see that she had dialed Vera’s number. She immediately tried to end the call but Vera had already answered.

For some reason, she had started to see Vera as an eyesore and stopped talking to her, which was why the moment she heard that innocent voice, her face turned disgusted.

“Rossa, I’m so pleased to finally hear from you. You stopped calling and wouldn’t pick my calls or reply to my texts. Have I offended you? If I have, please forgive me, I’m sorry.”

It took Jeslyn a few moments to adjust her mind before she responded with same tone of voice.

“How can you say that? My days have been so hectic that I haven’t even heard from Maverick. I wanted to call him but decided to hear your sweet voice first. It adds sweetness to my day.” She rolled her eyes.

Vera chuckled, “stop flattering me, please. Mav said same thing last night.”

Jeslyn jerked up and sat upright. “Oh? He did?… Now you know it’s not flattering. Hahaha”

“That’s right. I’ll remember that… have you called him?”

Jeslyn narrowed her eyes. “You mean, Rex?”

“Of course not, I mean Mav. Not brother Rex.”

‘She’s even calling him Mav and Rex, brother.’

“I just said my days…”

“Oh, that’s right. I’m sorry for being a jelly head. I’m so excited that I can’t remember things. Hahaha..”

“Your happiness smells… I mean, I can perceive it from here. What’s the good news? Is Valen awake?” Jeslyn was eager to hear ‘yes’ but…

“No, he’s not…”

Jeslyn’s face fell. “Then…”

“Mav came on to me last night and we did it. In the midst of it, I got my memories back! Rossa, I’m so happy!!”

Jeslyn took the phone off her ear and looked at the caller ID. She wasn’t mistaken. She pressed the phone to her ear again. The voice was the same.

“I’m so happy for you. Hahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa!” Jeslyn was so mad that her laughter sent a chill down Vera’s spine.
“Th– thank you,” she stuttered. “Are you ok?”

“Oh, don’t mind me. I hit my toe.”

“Oh? Ok. Hope it–”

“He must be sleeping beside you right now, isn’t he?”

“You mean Mav? Y– yes, he is.” Vera said
