Chapter 117 - Who are you? (2)

"And where do you think you're going with my wife?"

A deep male voice resounded behind them. Not long, Jackson came out along with several of his subordinates. All of his subordinates held guns around them. As soon as they showed up, they aimed at the four intruders.

Seeing that they were compromised, one of Cefei's men alerted the backup team through the earpiece. "Code red! I repeat, CODE RED!"

The other two weren't slow either, as well as Cefei. All of them took out their AK-47 and aim back.

Cefei's pulled April behind him. He could see her sweating profusely and her face was turning pale. By the looks of it, she wasn't doing well. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER?!" he couldn't help but yell out these words. His heart was aching that April didn't recognize him.

Jackson chuckled. "What I've done to her? What do you mean? She is my wife." Looking at the pale woman behind this tall man, he couldn't help but be anxious. Did she got triggered again? Still, he didn't show this kind of thought. "Little girl, come to me." He coaxes her.

Hearing his voice, Jessica felt like she was now safe. Her headache was getting worse and her hands were shaking really badly. Jackson was nowhere to save her. She tried to move but the man holding her didn't budge. "Let go of me!" She struggled.

Cefei would be dumb enough to let her go. "April! WAKE UP! He isn't your husband! You are not married to anyone! Not even to your son's father! Do you really wish to forget about your only son?! He is only about 4 years old! You can't throw away everything, just because you felt happy here! Sky needs you! YOUR SON NEEDS YOU!"

As if someone opened the locked room inside her brain, flashes of images came out of nowhere. Images of her being pregnant, then her giving birth to a healthy baby boy and lastly till that baby grew into a toddler. Cefei did the right thing. If there was someone who April values the most, it would be her son.

This amount of information broke her mentality. She fainted instantly.

"APRIL!" Cefei yelled out and caught her.

"LITTLE GIRL!" Jackson took a step closer but the three held their guns aiming through his head. He wished to be the one holding her, but he knew that he didn't deserving to keep her.

Cefei didn't bother looking at him and checked April's breathing and pulse. He sighed when he confirmed that she'll be fine. He then looked at Jackson again. "Answer me, what did you do to her?!"

Jackson wryly smiled. "For you to come here unprecedented, you sure held quite some affections to her. You tell me first, who are you?"

Cefei eyed his enemy. It looks like he really didn't know of his identity. "You don't think I'm one of the Hawthorne's men?"

Jackson chuckles. "Although they are rich and powerful, their might only lies to their area. For you to find this location dictates that you are more powerful than them."

"Smart. If you're this smart, then I hope that you'll let us leave here peacefully. Else, you would die here in vain." Cefei smiled mockingly.

Jackson and his men felt that this man wasn't joking. Were they surrounded?! How did they able to do that?

Jackson stared at April in another man's embrace. How ironic was it? He knew that he wouldn't be able to keep her, yet his heart didn't want to let them leave. He couldn't help but gulped down his saliva. He could see the fire in the eyes of the man in front of him. He could also see that this man held true affections for his little girl. Jackson didn't know what to do.

Seeing that Jackson wasn't cooperating, Cefei signaled one of his men. Receiving the order, he instantly talked to his earpiece. "Bring the Eagle to the Nest."

"Roger that. The Eagle will arrive within 5 minutes." A man responded to their earpieces.

"Copy that." Cefei's men replied back.

Hearing that the other one was calling for backup, Jackson's men didn't know what to do. "Boss?" They looked at Jackson with an unsure look. Would they let them leave just like this? Or fight their way to death?

Jackson clenched his fist. He didn't foresee this moment at all! He was only looking out with the Hawthorne's, Smith's, Lewis' and his former master's movements. This man in front of him, he could very well see that he was capable. Yet, who is this man?! On April's files, he didn't see her have any interaction with this man at all! He felt angry and frustrated at the same time.

"You think you could just leave because you wanted to?!" Jackson glared at the man who was holding his woman. Hearing their boss's angry words, his men stood straight and held their positions. Aiming straight to the four men's chest or head.

Instead of getting angry, Cefei laughed like it was some sort of funny joke. "If I could find you, do you believe that Sal can't?"

Hearing the name 'Sal', Jackson froze. "WHO ARE YOU?!!" Right now, he was truly scared. Not for his life, but for his little girl.

Seeing Jackson's odd state, Cefei glared. "Don't take me as one of you, trash! I would never take advantage of a weak woman! Don't worry, I'm not from that organization. I'll bring April out and there is nothing you can do!"

Not long after, they could hear a bunch of speedboats heading their way. All of them were armed men both from the locals and Cefei's men from the military. Not far from them, there was also the sound of a helicopter.

Hearing this man's words, Jackson felt cold. Was there another organization powerful than the triad? He rummages his head until an idea came out. His brows furrowed. He couldn't help but be amazed and scared at the same time.

Jackson sighed. "Fine, take her. But I want you to promise me something."

Cefei felt disgusted by talking to Jackson, still, he didn't refute and let the other person talk. Although he was mad, he could see that April wasn't hurt one bit. Just that, she had a problem with her head.

Seeing that the other person didn't say anything, he continued. "Since you knew of Sal, then I'll assume that you are someone who can contend with him. I'll only ask this, don't bring April back to her family."

Cefei stared at Jackson in shock. In all the other party could ask for, why was it something like this?

Jackson saw his confusion and chuckled. "The Hawthorne's can't protect her. Right now, she is the key to Sal's ambition. Once he got her, It will bring chaos on earth. Since I can't even keep her safe, I'll trust her in your hands. You must promise me this." Jackson made his decision, as long as she's safe. He didn't care for his life anymore.
