THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 71 – THE END
BY SIR ZACH
CHAPTER 73
For the next few days, the people of Country M felt a storm brewing. While the electoral college was conducting an election within the council to pick a new President, Hwang Min was waging war against Maverick.
It’s been three days since the ex–president was arrested and sentenced, yet Hwang Min hasn’t left the Capital. He tried leaving but Maverick’s men were everywhere.
He couldn’t stay at the Presidential Villa anymore, so he found a hotel to stay in.
While at the hotel, he was communicating with his people who immediately gathered all of Hwang Min’s men and headed for the Capital.
Almost twenty thousand of them flooded the Capital. Although the men settled at the outskirts of the Capital, a few of them entered the City to rescue their Master and cause some losses to Maverick.
They destroyed a few of Maverick’s establishments as an official declaration of war.
Hwang Min, who had been rescued was asked to return to SIN city, but the man refused, saying;
“I want to watch how you bring Maverick to his knees!” He curled his lips into a smirk.
The so–called PEACE got a message that Hwang Min had declared an all-out war against Maverick, but they turned a blind eye and didn’t get involved. Within, they wanted to see Hwang Min and Maverick’s downfall.
Didn’t they say they wanted to reform the Country? Well, to do that, those who caused the Country to be a nightmare have to die before the Country sees happy days.
The fight between Maverick and Hwang Min would be happening outside the city to prevent innocent people from dying. After all, it would be a fight between twenty thousand and twelve thousand.
The fight between the Lu family and Xu family caused them some damage, so Maverick had eight thousand active fighters, while Damien gave him four thousand active fighters.
At first, Maverick thought he’d be fighting ten thousand men but after he lost the battle for two consecutive days, he finally called a meeting to understand the situation.
…
THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 71 – THE END
Three black cars drove under the canopy of the night, heading out of the Capital. The cars stopped at a stand–alone building. Even the Presidential Villa has no security protocol as strong as the one here.
For about an hour, the cars were going through thorough checks at different checkpoints until they finally made it through the gates and arrived at the white house.
The middle car was opened by Code 5 and Jeslyn got down, wearing a black outfit. All the guards around them bowed in greetings. With Code 5 and Yellow leading the way, they headed to the entrance of the house.
Stepping into the sitting room, Jeslyn felt a shiver run down her body. This place gave her a feeling of death. No warmth, no life, no nothing.
The sitting room had either black or brown designs all through. So creepy!
“Ma’am, this way, please!” A lady in black trousers and a black top said with a stoic face after bowing to Jeslyn and Yellow.
Jeslyn gave a faint nod before following behind her while the others hung around the sitting room.
Jeslyn wasn’t bothered by the lady’s coldness because almost all of Maverick’s people, both men and women, had a bitch face, including Pink and Yellow.
And they all look ruthless and unforgiving.
Standing by the door, she saw a red light coming from the doorknob and spoke.
“He’s holding a meeting.”
Jeslyn looked at her, then asked, “Did you see him eat anything since?”
“The Master doesn’t eat in the presence of his subordinates,” she answered.
“In other words, you’re not sure if he ate anything.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“Lead me to the kitchen,” Jeslyn instructed.
“Yes, Ma’am.” The lady turned and started heading to the sitting room.
About thirty minutes later, Jeslyn returned with a tray of piping hot chicken soup and a bowl of rice.
“Knock on the door,” she instructed the lady.
Her face changed and she took a step back, then bowed slightly, “I’m sorry, Ma’am. Master hates it.”
“Tch. Just do it.” Seeing she was hesitant, Jeslyn added. “It’s an order.”
“Yes, Ma’am!”
The lady stepped forward, took a deep breath and knocked on the door once.
She waited for about a minute before she knocked again.
Seeing she was knocking like one who was afraid of the door, Jeslyn handed her the tray and started banging on the door.
Meanwhile, inside the room, Maverick could be seen among about ten men, including Rex, Fin, and Matt.
“Only my sister-in-law would knock like that,” Rex chuckled.
Maverick narrowed his eyes at the three who were sitting together at a corner.
“You called her here?” he asked.
“Don’t accuse me, I’m innocent.” Inspector Fin immediately said.
“Me too!” Rex added.
“Good she came. Saved me the stress of treating a stubborn patient,” Matt rolled his eyes.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Maverick massaged his temple and sighed with his back leaning on the chair.
“Ah, you won’t get the door? Then I shall before she gets mad at me.” Rex jumped off his chair and ran to the door.
Immediately he opened it, a knock came in contact with his face.
“Ouch!” He cried out.
“Haha, sorry!”Jeslyn giggled and pushed him to the side, carried the tray of food and walked in.
Rex perceived the aroma of the food and hurriedly swallowed. He shut the door with a loud ‘bang’ and hurried after her.
The meeting wasn’t over, so everyone was still seated.
Once Jeslyn came closer, they all got up to greet her.
She smiled at her husband and placed the food on the table.
“It is dangerous. Why did you come?”
“You worry about me, yet you haven’t had a wink in three days.”
Maverick shot a glare at his friends who turned their faces away. However, the shameless Rex moved over to the table and smiled.
“Sister-in-law, you made this. Did you leave any for me?”
“Rex, stay away,” she said. But unfortunately, she was talking to Rex.
He glued himself to her and beamed, “I’ve not eaten in three days. We’ve been at war.”
“Yet, you’re still alive? I bet you would have died from hunger on the first day,” Jeslyn snorted.
“Please, forgive me for being rude, but what exactly is she doing here? We are holding an important meeting for crying out loud! This is not a picnic!”
Everyone turned to look at the man who said that. He was wearing the Yu faction’s uniform. Undeniably, the leader of the five thousand men sent by Damien.
Some men on the table shook their heads in pity. Inspector Fin gasped and Rex chuckled. Matt, on the other hand, glanced at the guy and rolled his eyes.
Maverick didn’t even shift his gaze away from his wife when he heard that.
As for Jeslyn, she was amazed by the guy’s words. It was apparent that he had anger in his heart.
“It seems you have a lot to say?” Jeslyn asked a rhetorical question. She wasn’t expecting an answer but he was bold enough to reply.
“Of course, I do! Do you know how many men I’ve lost in the past two days, all because of you?! That man is your father, isn’t he? Why can’t you settle things amicably with him? Did you have to sacrifice people’s lives just to vent? I thought they said you’re the people’s little sister or whatever, I don’t see that in you!”
“You’re not done, continue,” Jeslyn said with interest.
The man finally looked around him. All the men around him were looking at him with wide eyes. Rex was still laughing and Alpha Chaos was playing with her hair without caring about what he was saying.
Seeing the amount of nonchalance, it fuelled the guy’s hatred for Jeslyn. He bolted up and slammed his hand on the desk.
“Of what use is a mere celebrity here? I lost my girlfriend today just because of you! She was a girl too, but she knew better to be a useful one and not some burden! She wouldn’t have died if she wasn’t here to fight for you! You can’t just sit back, while other girls go to war. What makes you special!!”
Maverick paused and finally shifted his gaze to the guy.
“Hahahaha… Brother, it seems people are no longer scared of you. Maybe it started when you stopped wearing black. Hahaha!”
“And also since he started appearing on TVs and allowing Media houses, say shit about him,” Inspector Fin added teasingly.
Jeslyn glanced at her husband’s hand and saw it playing with a small knife.
She smiled. Others from the Yu faction must have been thinking the same thing. If she allows her husband to kill their leader, they might turn their back against him in war.
She held her husband’s hand and chuckled.
Maverick held her hands and smiled while looking into her eyes. “How do you want to punish him?”
“Talk about punishment if he comes back alive. Meanwhile, let me clear up his misconception,” Jeslyn turned to the man and started walking slowly towards him.
“First of all, you’re fighting for a cause that you all would benefit from. Before coming here, did you not ask your Master what this war is about or you’re just looking for ways to cause trouble?”
The guy turned his face away. Meaning he knew and was only trying to cause disharmony between the men.
Jeslyn narrowed her eyes. Is this man working for Mr. Hwang? Her senses sharpened, as she thought of the number of men they’ve lost so far. They’ve lost almost four thousand men in just three days.
No one thought it was weird because the opponent had too many fighting weapons, not excluding fighting jets, deadly explosives and so on.
Not as if Maverick doesn’t have such but the enemies attack without notice and leave before Maverick retaliates.
So this is what it is!
“If I remember correctly, Damien attended my baby shower with those he always walks around with, which are Randy and Kim. So how did you conclude that Mr. Hwang is my father and that we have bad blood?”
“Yo–”
“Ah, before you tell me about the media, my baby shower wasn’t on live. When Mr. Hwang came, some people had already gone home. No one recorded anything about that, so nothing was posted online, meaning, you either got the gist from Damien…”
“Of cours–”
“… Or from Hwang Min,” she raised a brow at his surprised face.
Not just him, everyone looked shocked.
“What do you mean?” Rex asked. None of them thought there could be a spy among them, not even Maverick. Then that must be why they’ve been losing the battle!
“What I mean is, this dude is working for Mr. Hwang. We all know Damien is not the type to gossip with his men when he is always after my sister-in-law. Which leaves us to believe that he has been in contact with Hwang Min who told him to cause disharmony around here. To achieve that, he caused his girlfriend to die so his rebellion would look real.
“Hwang Min knows that my husband is not one to tolerate disrespect. If my husband kills this betrayer, his men would get angry and withdraw, then leave my husband to fight alone.”
“Why do you think Mr. Hwang would want to do that? He has twenty thousand men and if we continue like this, he would win the war.” One of the Captains sitting around the table asked.
“He is planning a step ahead. Once he wins this war, he’ll need more Army to go against the government and whoever cross his lane. That’s where that Buffalo and his team comes in.
“Do I also need to say he is the reason you’ve been losing the battle because he gives Mr. Hwang your plans?”
Everyone in the room was enraged. They wanted nothing but to pounce on the man right here.
Seeing he had been caught, the man stopped pretending and laughed.
“It’s already too late. Mr. Hwang is in control now. How many men does Alpha Chaos have to continue fighting? Brothers, if you come with me now, I guarantee you, Mr. Hwang will treat you well!”
“Shut up!” One of the Captains yelled, he is a member of the Lu faction.
Jeslyn immediately raised her hand to stop the guy from speaking further.
