Chapter 116 - 116 - Before The Rain

"Jayden enough! You'll kill him!" Kyle yelled.

Andrew and Percy held my hands to stop me. I turned around and walked away, trying to control my rage. Then I screamed from the top of my lungs.

The anger, the anxiousness and the fear of losing Peggy were messing my mind and my heart.

"I will really kill him if he won't tell me where he brought Peggy!" I shouted.

The guards held George's arms and stood him up. His face was swollen and bleeding. His right eye has a deep cut, blood was flowing from it. It's the same with his lower lip, swollen and has a deep cut. I think two of his teeth were extracted because of my punches.

I frowned when I saw Luke walk towards him and murmured.

"If you won't tell us anything I swear I will wipe out your whole family from the youngest to the oldest. I will make sure your family will be erased in the history of Flousia." He said, warning him calmly but with a cold tone.

"George, that is Luke Wilson. Chairman of Wilson Group. I think I don't need to give you all the details about him. You already knew the power of their family, right?" Kyle said.

"I-It wasn't me. It's my twin brother who took her. I was ordered to follow Jayden not Margaret." He blurted.

"What? Are you toying with us?" I asked, annoyed.

"N-No. I'm telling the truth. I have a twin brother. We work under the Forelli Clan. To trick the royal family, we need to work as one. It was me who befriended Peggy but it was my brother who went with her at the festival. We need to know everything about each other's tasks so no one would suspect." He said in a hoarse voice. 

"I just need to know where she is." I asked again, impatiently.

"T-To the Forelli Mansion." He answered.

"What's your master's plan?" Luke asked.

He didn't answer.

"Ugh!" He shouted in pain when Luke suddenly punched him in the stomach.

"We ask, you answer. If not, we will have to torture your sister instead." Luke said casually.

Then to our surprise, three men from A.E went inside with a girl whose eyes were covered with a black cloth and hands tied together in front.

"Grace?" George murmured.

"Brother? Is that you? Is it you George? W-Where am I? I'm scared. Brother, help me!" The girl pleaded.

Luke signaled and the men took the girl out of the room.

"Now. Are you ready to answer our questions?" He asked, staring directly into George's eyes.

George nodded in response.

Luke turned around and walked towards the couch. He sat there and looked at me.

"Your turn. But stop hurting him." He said.

I glared at him but I understood that he wanted me to calm down.

Luke was like an older brother to me. He helped me and my father a lot during high school. My father was his fiance's psychiatrist. He offered us to live with them so father could take care of his fiance. That time, we had nowhere to go. Father and I were moving from one place to another or would sleep in an inn for a few days. We were running from the Mafia so I was forced to disguise myself as a girl.

Luke and Alora took us in like a family. He was the one who sponsored me to get into Golden Oak High School, made me his CFO and now the CEO of his company. He also offered me to invest in his business the money that mom left me.

So I owe him a lot. But despite all that, he treated me like a brother. He never used his authority towards any of us. He would just order us if he knew we're wrong.

"Speak. What was her father's plan?" I asked.

"He would never hurt your wife. But he will use her against you. Your son might be taken as well if they knew where he is now." He said.

I frowned. George knew where Caden was. Didn't he report that to Matthew?

"I-I didn't tell him about your son. Believe me, I am a made man but I could never hurt a child. If Margaret would not tell her father about Caden, your son will be safe but if she mentioned him to her father, he will do everything to take him." He continued.

"What does he want from me? Does he want me dead? Was that it?" I asked.

"I-I don't know. The only person who could answer that is him. He never told us the reason why he's obsessed with finding you and your father. We couldn't ask him either. We just follow orders." He answered.

"Tell us where that mansion is, how many people were there. Everything about them!" Kyle said, almost yelling.

He was cooperative this time and answered every questions.

"A-Are you planning to attack the Forelli Clan? That's impossible! They have a lot of allies! Even if you combined the royal guards and Jayden's men, you're outnumbered." He warned.

I chuckled.

"Don't underestimate us! You have chosen the wrong side." I answered.

He stared at me, confused. Then moved his gaze to Luke, to Andrew, Percy and Kyle.

His eyes widened. He was stunned when he realized the people in front of him.

"Wilson, Jackson, Cross, Hulls and Castello! You were those men who fought with the Santelmo's and the Rossi's!" He exclaimed.

We didn't answer. Kyle signaled to bring him outside so we could talk alone and plan.

After our discussion, I asked Luke to call Alora and check on Caden. I don't have the courage to talk to Caden because I promised him I will take care of his mother but I was too careless.

I found out that the girls, my father and the kids were taken to A.E headquarters so I was relieved. It was the most secure place in the world. An underground facility designed and built by the five of us. The whole thing was Luke's idea and we helped on building it . He's a genius and personally built a security system that even the government could never find.
