Chapter 140 One Chance

Jacob

I leaned against the wall, watching that bastard practice shooting with an apple perched on my head like some kind of twisted gangster game. But what could I say? I needed his support to get to his daughter, and if I didn't play along, he wouldn't let me near her.

Fuck my luck!

He was furious. Completely and utterly furious, and I couldn't blame him. Any father would feel the same-I messed up. Big time. Not just once, but in multiple ways. And in the midst of it all, I ended up fucking hurting her, which I should've avoided at all costs.

Bang.

The shot landed perfectly in the middle of the apple, and I clenched my fists at my sides. It wasn't that I was afraid of the bullets-I knew these bullets were harmless since it was just a balloon shooting gun. What angered me was that Samuel's tantrums were wasting a lot of my time.

I needed to see her.

It had been sixteen whole days, and I hadn't even caught a glimpse of her. I was dying inside. To hold her in my arms. To feel her warmth. To taste her lips. God! I fucking missed her so damn much.

"How's Evelyn?" I found myself asking as he loaded the gun.

"She's doing great, actually. You'd be glad to know she's on a date, having the time of her life. The guy, unlike you, isn't an oldie. He's handsome, I guess, and definitely not a jerk."

She's on a date?

Damn it! This is spiraling out of control.

I bit the inside of my cheek, seething I couldn't stand the thought of her being with someone else. I'd fucking kill that guy.
