Chapter 434 - You can kill me but I will not tell.

Scott who just ended his call pinched the space between his eyebrows and gulped all the wine in the glass in one go. 

Though Enrick assured him, his heart is still not in ease. Right now his mind is in mess….at one hand Jean's pregnancy would be too complicated while in other hand Johann had his eyes on killing his wife. 

The irony here is both the troublemakers are out of his control to handle the issue. Their baby will be troubling his wife internally while Johann will trouble her staying in shadows. 

What bothered him the most is no one knows how Johann looks like except Kiara. But she lost her memory….

The more he thought the more he felt restless. His heart can't be in ease till he assure his wife's safety. Deciding to have one of his elite team to keep a close watch on her he was about to call but Jean stopped him. 

"Scott, you are over thinking. Don't fret about this too much all right...and don't withdraw your teams just to make them my watchmen's" Jean told him standing at the door frame of French doors. She is leaning on to it for support while donning her bathrobe. 

"Hmm" Scott nodded but continued dialing the number ignoring her. 

Jean pursed her lips and snatched his mobile before cutting the call. "I said no need. How can you use your team for your personal purpose Scott. I already have enough to them to watch me" Jean angrily said. 

"Well, I don't believe in your normal team. Do you think I don't know that your elite team is confidentially digging more information about Johann…..hmm. They are not back from the city S yet" Scott retorted and snatched back his mobile. 

"But they will be back in three days. In meanwhile what will happen….huhhh….even your team will take more than a week to come" Jean said while pouting. She simply didn't have energy to fight with him especially when his temper is at peaks. 

Scott pinched his nose feeling helpless. He can't be angry on her let alone ignore her till his temper subsides because she will start sobbing again.

This woman and her tears will be an end of him. Even handling a terrorist will be lot easier than coaxing a pregnant wife with mood swings. 

Sighing deeply he pulled her into his arms. "Baby, I am very afraid all right. I can't bear if something happens to you" Scott whispered and buried his face into the crook of her neck. 

"What will happen…hmm. I will always stay in front of your eyes and be careful till my team come back. Please don't shout like this again" Jean said and buried her face in his chest hugging him tightly. 

But who knows that this will not be that easy. They are still not aware of how much power Johann holds with the support of Braxton. He is simply formidable and bloodthirsty beast. 

"Please be. I can't live without you or bear seeing you broken" Scott said and pulled her into deep passionate kiss. 

As soon as his tongue entered her mouth Jean's face flushed and she pushed him away. He tasted alcohol and it made her stomach feel sick. 

Scott is momentarily dazed by her sudden rejection because it never happened before. By the time he came out of his daze his wife is already puking in the bathroom.

....

Meanwhile in outskirts of country X….

A man is sweating gallons and gallons. His face is filled with fresh scars of the dagger and his eyes are swollen red. 

His eyelids fluttering shut for every spit of the second but he was forced to open his eyes by splashing hot steamy water on his face. It's been almost two days he slept. 

He is too desperate to sleep but this was a pure torture. He is not even allowed to close his eyes…

He is trapped with chains and is sprawled on the floor while Raymond sat on the chair facing him with bored expression. 

Marcus one of the Jean's elite team member sighed. This person…..he is not even opening his mouth even after torturing him to this extent. 

Why is he so loyal to Johann? 

"If you tell us who is the person supporting Johann I will let you sleep" he asked while twirling the dagger in his hands which 'accidentally' skimmed on that person's cheeks. 

That person smirked despite of the intense pain. His blood oozed out from his scars but he still didn't answer. "Even if you kill me I will not tell" 

He repeated the same line over and over again. They have been torturing him since two days still he denied to answer. They have used every technique yet the room only etched with silence. 

He neither shrieked with pain nor groaned…his face never lost his disgusting smirk. 

"You think someone will come and save you from here. Huhhh….if you are having that thought better kill it and cooperate with us. At least you will get to live in the prison till your so called master 'destroy' the council" Marcus sardonically said. 

"Ha…..I know no will come to save me so you can continue torturing me" he laughed. 

Raymond is extremely bored with such a persistent man. He hoped to have some fun but he got nothing and in turn his wife will kick him out of the bed today. 

All thanks to this Bastard here… 

He is the same person who eavesdropped Rick's and Iris's conversation in parking lot. So, after this incident in hotel the team captured him and brought here… 

Raymond throwed the cup in his hand and it shattered into pieces making others shut their mouths. The only person laughing is that bastard. 

Raymond gritted his teeth and his hands itched to cut that laughing mouth. Unable to control he took the gun he shot two bullets.
