THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 2: CHAPTER 81 – THE END OF SEASON 2
BY SIR ZACH
CHAPTER 86
“Who sent them?… Emilee, Christine, who?” She got up and walked towards her husband who was standing by the door.
“You already guessed,” he replied.
“Emilee won’t try to kill me just yet because she knows she’d lose more. It’s none other than Christine.” Jeslyn shut her eyes with her fingers on her husband’s buttons, slowly opening them.
“You still like her?” he asked.
“It’s a little hard to kill her,” she replied with her eyes still shut in pain. She gave Christine so much time, thinking that girl would cultivate a redeeming quality; just one would have been enough to forgive her but now…
“Should I kill her for you?”
“No,” Jeslyn shook her head and slowly opened her eyes. “I’ll take care of her myself.”
Maverick nodded. “I’ll go with you… you can’t say no,” he shut back the objection that was about to escape her lips.
“Fine. How is Lolita?” She looked up at Maverick.
Seeing the look of pain still in her eyes, Maverick immediately answered, “I haven’t received a call from Matt. He’s still in the theatre.”
Jeslyn subconsciously gritted her teeth. Her face turned dark and her hands gripped her husband’s shirt tightly.
Maverick didn’t disturb her, nor did he tell her that she was scratching his chest with her long nails. He endured even when his chest was starting to bleed from her scratches.
“If anything happens to Lolita…” she paused when she caught sight of the wound on her husband’s chest. She quickly let go of his chest but before she could pull back her hands, Maverick held them to his chest.
“It’s only a scratch. It doesn’t hurt like how your heart is aching right now.”
A pool of tears settled in Jeslyn’s eyes. She didn’t intend to cry but her husband’s words were too sweet that she couldn’t help the tears.
“Plum,” she said slowly and looked up at his cold and handsome face.
“I’m yours and yours alone,” he said and pulled her into a tight embrace.
“I knew it! Whenever she’s with you, she always cries. Dad, are you bullying her again?” Valen’s small voice boomed from the door.
Yeah, Maverick didn’t entirely shut the door before Jeslyn started querying him.
“Valen,” Jeslyn freed herself from the hug and quickly cleaned her tears with Maverick’s shirt before she faked a smile and turned to her son.
“Hmph,” he harrumphed with an annoyed face.
“What now,” Jeslyn chuckled.
“Why are you crying? Don’t lie to me. Your eyes are red, your nose is red, your…” he gestured for her to lower her height and when she did, he lifted her hair to see her right ear.
“… Your ear is red.” Valen shifted his eyes to his father who was standing there like a rock. Valen let go of his mother’s hair and walked towards his father. Took his two hands and scrutinized his palms, making sure it wasn’t red.
“Dad, why is she crying if you didn’t hit her?” he narrowed as he stared up at his father’s face, still he wasn’t able to release the ‘manly’ air he intended to.
“Hahahaha…” Jeslyn laughed wholeheartedly. “Son, your father did nothing to me,” she grabbed her son and pulled him to the bed.
“You are covering for him, Mom,” he raised his small palm and cleaned her cheeks even though nothing was on them.
“Muah,” Jeslyn pecked his soft cheeks. She took his pinky finger and crossed it with hers. “I promise, your papa loves me the most. He has never hurt me… physically before and he still won’t in the future.”
Jeslyn almost said he had never hurt her before until she remembered Vera’s case. Even though Maverick did nothing, her pettiness wouldn’t make her stop talking about it once in a while, especially when she and her son intended to bully her husband.
Maverick shook his head and took off his shirt before heading to the bathroom, ignoring the two.
“I knew it, he hurt you before. Mom, I want to sleep here so he can’t hurt you again. Tomorrow, there might be red dots on your skin and it won’t be good for your VJ Cute’s performance in two days.
Maverick froze and turned to glare at his son. “You have a test tomorrow, don’t you?”
“Test ended today,” Valen returned the glare.
Maverick narrowed his eyes on his son. “I heard you bullied a girl again. Your mom won’t be happy if she finds out.”
Valen’s lips fell apart and he blinked. His mother was right beside him and his father just revealed his secret! What else is he planning to do if not to make his mother angry at him, and then send him to his room? This means Valen would sleep alone again today and his father would get to sleep with his mother.
Never!
Valen could already feel the heat on his head from his mother’s glare. He slowly turned back. As expected, she was looking angry.
“Mom, it’s that pest again–”
“She has a name,” Jeslyn’s frown deepened, causing Maverick’s lips to curl up in a smile.
Valen caught that smile and his face darkened. He opened his button-up shirt and pulled it down. On his arm was a red tooth mark.
“See, Mom, she bit me. That was why I got rude, but I didn’t hit her, I promise.”
Jeslyn gasped when she saw the faint red mark on her son’s arm. “She did this to you?!”
“Yes, Mom,” Valen raised his gaze at his father and smiled.
“This is very bad of her. Good that you didn’t hit her–”
“Women are delicate and kind creatures, yet ruthless when provoked. Are you sure you didn’t provoke her?” Maverick asked passively.
Jeslyn raised her brow at her son, waiting for him to respond.
Valen bit his lower lip. Can he sell his father?! He thought.
“Valen?” Jeslyn called in a questioning voice.
“Mom, I’m your son, he’s your husband. Can’t you see he’s scheming?” he pouted. Looking extremely cute.
“Ah, you are also scheming, just like him… after all, you are his carbon copy… I’ll go and sleep at Pink’s tonight. Goodnight to both–”
“Mom!”
“Candy!”
They both called.
Valen turned sharply to look at his father. “What is candy?”
“It’s late, you should return to your room and sleep,” Maverick said while heading to the bathroom. He didn’t want to tell Valen what candy is.
“No,” Valen replied.
“Hey, son, don’t start a fight with your dad. You two can sleep here, I’ll take your grandma–”
“Mom… I’m scared of the dark,” Valen said pitifully while pulling Jeslyn’s cloth.
“Mn, he’s scared of the dark,” Maverick responded.
Jeslyn looked from the father to son and sneered, “Good night. Mr Maverick,” Jeslyn waved at Maverick before pulling Valen into the covers.
Valen gazed at his father with a smug look on his face. Seeing his father had narrowed his eyes at him. Valen stuck out his tongue, smiled and snuggled into Jeslyn’s embrace.
If only he knew what his father was about to do to him.
Maverick went into the bathroom to shower and spent much time doing almost nothing. When he returned, the mother and son were already sleeping.
They looked cute and lovely as they hugged each other but in Maverick’s eyes, it was a taboo.
He lowered himself and tried to pick up Valen but the little boy was too sensitive to touch. Whenever he tried to carry him, Valen would either snuggle deeper into Jeslyn’s embrace or stir from sleep.
Left with no other choice, Maverick carried Jeslyn out of bed and took her to his room.
By the time Valen woke up at midnight when he no longer felt the warm embrace of his mother, he opened his eyes and the first thing that came to mind was his father’s underhanded means of kidnapping his mother.
Feeling injustices, Valen got down from bed, ready to go fight his father but on getting to the door, it was locked!
“Dad!!! You cheater! I’ll get you back for it, I promise!” Valen fumed while returning to the bed. Even though his mother wasn’t here, he can sleep with her scent close to him.
Valen laid on Jeslyn’s spot which still had a faint fragrance of her perfume. He sniffed it and closed his eyes. After a long time, he finally fell asleep.

THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 2: CHAPTER 81 – THE END OF SEASON 2
When morning came, Valen rushed out early to confront his father but to his bad luck, Maverick already left the house.
“He must be scared of my retaliation,” Valen concluded.
Meanwhile, Maverick was seen getting down from his car at Wu’s base.
The Wu base is a place where the gangs belonging to the WU live. The chain of houses lined around to form a circle in the middle; where the men made an arena.
Entering the large compound, Maverick strode in with one direction in mind; the boss’ resting place.
A club was built in the place to keep the men from being bored. Entering the club, Maverick was immediately given access to the topmost floor.
Code 10 barged into the room, soliciting a roar from one of the men in the room. However, the words he intended to say got stuck in his throat when he saw the people going in.
“Who–”
Arriving at the VIP room, the large–beared boss was sitting in the midst of s3x–hungry ladies who couldn’t keep their hands to themselves for a few seconds, bolted up from his seat.
“Alpha Chaos?”
Maverick strode towards a couch and sat down with his black gun placed on the table.
“Alpha Chaos, to what do I owe this visit?” Although his words were fluent, his mind was in shambles.
Maverick gave him a once–over look and commanded, “Get your boss.”
The man frowned, “I’m the boss.”
Maverick didn’t repeat himself but the next thing, “bang!”
A bullet flew out of Code 2’s gun and lurched straight in between the man’s brows.
“Ahhhhh!” The ladies screamed and were about to start running helter-skelter but Code 10 pointed his gun at them, causing them to hug themselves and huddle up in one place.
Even though one of them was killed, the other guards didn’t try to fight back or something.
“Where is he? Get him down here,” Maverick repeated.
Before one of the guards could leave, one side of the wall contorted and slid open. An old man in a wheelchair was pushed out by a young man with slight resemblance to Young Master Wu.
“Young Master Lu, to what do we deserve your visit,” he said.
Maverick ignored that question and went straight to the point, “When a child is not properly raised, the parents shoulder the blame.”
The young man who was pushing his grandfather frowned but didn’t get involved.
“You are right, but all my children are well–mannered. So where is your accusation coming from, Lu?” the old man asked.
“Were you aware that your son ordered my wife’s death?”
“Oh, that?” the old man smiled. “It’s just a woman, Lu Ren, you shouldn’t be attached to her. We know she’s the mother of your child but you should let the feelings end there. You’re an excellent child, so you should know better.”
Maverick’s gaze didn’t stray from the old man as he kept talking bullshit. After he was done, Maverick nodded slightly. “In other words, you requested I come here for you to ‘lecture’ me?”
“Yes, you’re right. I brought you here to lecture you and teach you the ways of the world. As the Holy son, you can’t make the same mistakes as your father. After all, we are already considering taking your son instead of you and 80% of us have agreed on your son.”
“You included,” Maverick confirmed.
“Indeed. As the third in command, I can’t dance to your tune. So, I chose your son.”
“Interesting,” Maverick got up from the couch and started walking towards the entrance.
“Lu Ren, you should think about it. It has been found out that your wife is from our enemy’s side, so her death has been ordered in the previous meeting. You should forget about her and look for another woman. I have beautiful daughters if you want. They’ll make a good wife for you and a good mother to your children.”
