Chapter 425 - Cox sisters (6)

One after another, six of them entered a large room in the back. Liam was on the floor, unconscious. Cox sisters were tied up to two chairs, gagged, separated by quite a distance.

Bodyguard reported that Lindsay and Scarlet were fighting, so they restrained them. Then they were kicking each other so they had to separate them. After that two of them screamed insults at each other, and they could not handle it, so they gagged them.

Oscar thanked the bodyguards for hard work and told them to go back to their posts.

Lindsay and Scarlet looked at everyone, obviously scared witless. They didn't even try to speak.

When bodyguards left and closed the door behind them, Oscar looked at his sons. "Now what?"

Jeff shrugged and looked at JoAnna.

Aiden faced Sarah and gestured to her to take the front.

Sarah looked at Liam. "We have more of that stuff, right?" She was asking JoAnna.

"Yes. I got plenty." JoAnna confirmed and reached into her purse.

"Good. Let's give him some before we wake him up." Sarah was walking toward Liam.

"Can I?" Jeff was excited like a small child.

JoAnna exchanged looks with Sarah and smiled. "Sure. How can I say no to you?"

JoAnna and Jeff fidgeted while others watched. She showed him how to put the ring-like device on his finger and then he needed to put the gel ampule on.

Jeff struggled to hold it properly. "It's too small."

"Let me help…" JoAnna offered.

"No, I got it…" He was stubborn. It looked straightforward when she showed it, but in his hands, it seemed to be very slippery and challenging to put it on right.

"Don't squeeze it will… burst…" JoAnna's warning came too late.

Jeff pressed too hard and gel ampule burst. Few drops of liquid from ampule splashed on his face.

JoAnna wiped Jeff's cheek with her palm. She saw him lick his lips. "Oh! Did it get in your mouth? Don't swallow!"

He looked at her helplessly. "I don't know if any got in. But I do taste something bitter…"

"Oh, boy…" JoAnna mumbled.

Jeff looked at her with a hint of panic. "What?"

"Nothing… worst case, for next hour or two you will not tell lies." JoAnna grinned.

Jeff frowned. "I never tell lies. Give me another one."

JoAnna got one more ampule from her purse. "Let me put it on."

Jeff didn't object. He extended his arm obediently, palm up.

JoAnna placed the gel ampule on the ring and explained. "Now pull this here, it will unlock the mechanism. And just press this onto a person. Try to aim for a place with more muscle."

"I need to touch him?"

"Just for a second." JoAnna laughed seeing Jeff's outrage.

Jeff apprehensively looked at Liam.

"Oh, for crying out loud!" Sarah lost her patience. "Let me do it!"

"No, I will!" Jeff moved his right arm away from Sarah.

"Then do it today!" Sarah gestured with her hand to hurry up.

"I will do it when I'm ready!" Jeff moved his arm swiftly again.

"Hey! Careful with that hand!" JoAnna scolded him and gave him a stern look. "Either do it or let her do it."

"I will, I will…" Jeff decided on a target and smacked Liam, injecting the ampule into his triceps.

Seeing that ampule is not on his palm anymore, he victoriously smiled and looked at JoAnna. "Give me my reward kiss."

JoAnna nervously glanced at Elanor and Oscar before her eyes landed on Jeff. "What kiss?"

"The kiss you give me when I do good." Jeff puckered his lips.

JoAnna looked at him in confusion. 'He is usually not this childish if we are not alone.' Then realization hit her. "You swallowed some medicine…"

"Maybe… but I still want my kiss. I will not move from here until I get one!" He sat on the floor and puckered his lips while waiting for a kiss.

'If he ingested the medicine, then he is telling the truth… and if he didn't get any medicine, then he is making a goofball of himself in front of his parents.' JoAnna exhaled in frustration and walked to Jeff to give him a kiss. JoAnna leaned to kiss him, and Jeff extended his arms and pulled her down, so she ended up sitting in his lap. She looked at his silly face with puckered lips for a second before giving him a quick kiss. JoAnna didn't think that before she moved her head away, his hand would be behind her head. He deepened the kiss, and even though she tried, she was not able to avoid it. JoAnna's mind was a mess. 'His parents are watching! Liam is unconscious right next to us… and his kiss feels so good…' She wanted to push him away, but she didn't want his parents to think that he is forcing himself on her. But if they are not there, she would not even think of pushing him away. She was conflicted.

JoAnna didn't realize that Jeff's parents, Aiden and Sarah looked away, and the only eyes on them were from Lindsay who would burn them alive if she had such capability. Scarlet was stealing glances at Aiden, and Sarah didn't miss that.

It took some time for JoAnna to break the kiss. "We are not alone." She reminded him with a whisper.

"Who cares if we are alone?" Jeff protested. "You said after party, and we are not at the party anymore! Whole evening I'm watching you! And that dancing! It was a torture, the whole time I felt like grab…"

JoAnna kissed him to stop him from talking. Internally she was screaming: 'Your parents are here!' She broke the kiss and pressed her index finger on his lips indicating him not to talk. She didn't expect that Jeff will open his mouth and start sucking on her finger. After a moment of shock, JoAnna cleared her throat and looked at Sarah. "I think we will leave now."

Sarah did her best not to laugh. "I can see that… but wake him up first!" She gestured to Liam.

JoAnna swiftly got a bottle from her bag and threw it to Sarah. "Put it under his nose." Then she turned to Jeff and giggled at his goofy expression with her finger in his mouth. "Honey, I feel like leaving. Will you come with me?"

He stopped sucking on her finger. "I will go with you anywhere." Jeff stood up and with JoAnna in his arms walked to the door.

Lindsay was mumbling something while looking at Jeff, but because she was gagged, nothing could be understood.

Jeff paused his steps and looked at Lindsay with a deep frown. His voice was cold and ominous. "If you even think of touching a single hair of JoAnna's I will break your legs and rearrange your face so that no one will recognize you." After a second of delay, his legs moved, and he carried JoAnna out.

Lindsay stopped her efforts to talk and her eyes were open in horror. She was petrified. 'I never knew that Jeffrey White can be this vicious.' Tears started falling down her face uncontrollably.

Aiden ignored Lindsay's sobs and looked at Sarah. "What do you want to do?"

She shrugged. "I don't know, really. Looking at them, they all look so pitiful. The filthy one wetted himself again, can you believe that?" She looked at Cox sisters. "This one is sobbing, and other one can't stop staring at you. But their reputations are ruined. They will not dare come in public for a long time. Also, we got a confession for the riding incident recorded. Sophia will make sure that they get maximum sentence... I had some ideas, but looking at them now, they are not good enough even for a warmup." Sarah looked at Aiden. "What do you think?"

Aiden smiled. "I agree with you."

Elanor stepped between them and placed her hands on their backs. "I agree with that also. Go and have fun. Let us take care of this."

Aiden and Sarah glanced at each other and nodded.

"Sarah, dear, can you wake up that one, before you leave?" Oscar gestured to Liam and frowned. "I have few questions for him."

"Sure." Sarah put bottle that JoAnna gave her under Liam's nose, and he started stirring up.

After few seconds, Liam looked up and his drowsiness was gone when his eyes landed on Sarah. He was petrified.

"Go, go… Eat. Food is good. Then dance…" Elanor ushered Aiden and Sarah out of the room. "We can't let younger generation do all the work. We are not obsolete yet."

Before they were pushed through the door by Elanor, Aiden glanced at Oscar, and saw that Oscar gave him a small nod.

As they stepped into the hallway, they walked between few dozens of bodyguards lined up next to the wall. Sarah looked at them and felt overwhelmed. "If I don't know who your father is, I would think that he is the president."

Aiden chuckled, finding her comment funny.

"What are we going to do now?" Sarah looked at Aiden with anticipation.

"Eat, dance… we can stay here for the night." Aiden smiled mischievously. "The lake is right here. It's a nice view."

"Aren't we going to do acquisition tomorrow?" Tomorrow is the day when they will aggressively buy shares of Cox Industries and two of their partners.

"That's work for Jeff and Sophia. We finished our part and got the stock values down. They will call us if needed… and what work we can't do from here?"

Sarah smiled. "OK. Let's eat, and dance… and I look forward to the view."

Aiden pulled a card key out of his pocket while flashing a smile. "We can see the view right away. If you wish."

Sarah laughed. "You little devil! You planned this all along!"

He didn't deny it.

They took the elevator to the top floor of the resort.
