Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 108: A Costly Prank

Athena softly heaved in deep breaths as they drew closer to the site indicated on the tracking tablet resting on her lap.

Mr. Thorne kept patting her hand at intervals to calm her down, but how could she find peace when her children might be facing unspeakable horrors right then?

The gang knew who she was; there was no telling how callous they could be toward her children now. The thought of her babies enduring even a fraction of the torment she had experienced during her last kidnapping sent shivers down her spine, making it impossible to calm her racing heart.

What would she have done without those tracking watches? It was a stroke of luck that the twins had taken to wearing trackable toy watches, just like the one they had gifted her, since her escape from that harrowing incident.

"Thank the heavens for technology," She muttered to herself, grateful for her technical know-how, which allowed her to operate their laptops and retrieve every crucial detail.

"We are here," Jake announced, his eyes focused on a nondescript, one-story building that stood before them.

The simplicity of it took Athena by surprise; it seemed too ordinary for such a sinister purpose.

As the car came to a stop, the ten vehicles behind them followed suit. Everyone spilled out, and the head agent spoke up, his tone commanding.

"You remember how this will go down, don’t you?"

Everyone nodded in affirmation.

"Then let’s go."

No one bothered to tell Athena to stay back; they all knew she wouldn’t agree. Plus, they understood she was capable—she was a force to be reckoned with, especially when it came to her children.

But Mr. Thorne’s insistence to accompany them raised some eyebrows. Though he had been a military general at one time, his age brought with it concerns.
