No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto
Chapter 601 – 650
Chapter 601
“Who dares lay a hand upon our young master? Does he have a death wish?”
It was another middle-aged man who spoke. His body was jacked with muscles, and he looked very sturdy from a glance.
“I know. He’s got a death wish! F*ck. There’s no need to be afraid of some so-called powerhouse from Eastfield!”
Another elder also spoke up, extremely furious, “We need to investigate the issue and find the culprit behind our young master’s death. We must kill him!”
Drag shook his head. “I think we should all just leave under the cover of the night. It’s not safe for us here any longer!”
“Why? Master, we’ve got plenty of villas and factories here, and our company’s here, too. Are you saying that you don’t want them any longer?”
One of the men wore a perplexed expression, unable to comprehend why his master would make such a decision.
“Quil was likely to have been with Marshal Zain. If Quil’s dead, and so are his bodyguards, Marshal Zain would’ve called me!”
Drag released a sigh. “But the Marshal hasn’t called, which means that he’s probably dead, too. We’ve provoked someone who shouldn’t have been provoked now. Eastfield is small, but don’t forget that plenty of war veterans have returned to the city, and there are plenty of Majors and Kings of War there. They even have a Goddess of War among them!”
“So, what you’re trying to say is that we’ve probably provoked a powerful veteran, sir? And it’s highly likely that they’re a King or God of War?”
One of the elders surmised after he thought about the matter in silence.
Drag nodded his head. “Quil had said that jackie was the one who leaked the secret to the Gods of War, and they had only killed my brother, Magnus, in a fit of rage. I suspect that they caused some trouble for jackie which then happened to attract the attention of the Gods of War. If that were the case, it’d been extremely unfortunate!”
At this moment, a frightening explosion resounded from outside. The terrifying cacophony of a fight immediately followed.
A bodyguard of the Xenos family immediately rushed in. “Bad news, sir. Someone’s ambushing our place. He’s in the mood for slaughter—and he’s very strong. I think he’s the famous King of War, Skylar Celestino!”
Drag instantly plopped onto his seat when he heard that, fearful. “We’re screwed. We’re completely, absolutely, screwed. Skylar is an eight-star King of War, an experienced fighter. No one in Sky City can hope to match his fighting prowess—what more someone from the Xenos family!”
“Ah. We’re too late. We probably would’ve survived if we’d left just a little earlier!”
An elder sighed.
It was too late now. The King of War was already there, ready for blood.
Three resounding crashes echoed consecutively, and three of the Xenos family’s fighters were thrown into the room. They lay on the ground, breathless.
“My apologies for the intrusion, but your young master offended someone who even I dare not offend. All the Xenos family can do now is to blame their unlucky stars!”
Skylar’s eyes were icy cold. He stood there, an immovable mountain of pure strength.
Chapter 602
It did not even take an hour for a single man to obliterate the powerful Xenos family of Sky City.
The powerhouses in Sky City were all extremely shocked when they learned about what had happened. This was the strength of a King of War—the terror of an eight-star King of War. Such power was far beyond the likes of normal powerhouses.
As to how the Xenos family provoked such a King of War, no one had the answer. They only knew that the young master of the Xenos family had stirred some trouble in Eastfield, thus, provoking this frightening enemy.
…
“Dad, Mom, we haven’t gone for a picnic in such a long time. Why don’t we take jackie, Selena, and Kylie to the countryside for a picnic tomorrow? How about that?”
Over the dining table, Xena suggested after she thought about it.
“Sure. I happen to be free tomorrow, and it’s been a long time since I’ve gone out with Kylie. Since tomorrow’s a Saturday, let’s go!” Selena said, smiling when she heard about the idea.
“Alright. Now that we’re rich, we can just drive away whenever we want to relax, and buy some stuff for a riverside barbecue!”
Ben chuckled. He could not help himself from shooting a glance at Xena beside him. “Who knew you’d learn to enjoy life more and more!”
“Why not? I was thinking we should all go out and have fun together!” Xena smiled.
When Xena and Selena had returned earlier, they did not catch sight of the ten beautiful bodyguards.
Who knew that at this moment, all ten bodyguards were wearing white sneakers and denim shorts, revealing their long, sexy legs. They wore loose-fitting T-shirts, giving off a seductive yet relaxed aura.
“Master, take a look. How are the working clothes we chose?”
The ten beauties filed into a single line after they came in. Elaine stepped forward and posed the question to jackie, grinning.
The beauties were all garbed in such uniformed dressing—it had to be said that it looked very easy on the eyes. Besides, each of them was full of life and vibrancy from a glance.
“You–you look great!”
Ben frowned after he observing them. “These are the bodyguards of the Taylor family? These are our bodyguards? Why didn’t I see them in the afternoon?”
One of the bodyguards immediately stepped forward. “Are you Young Master Ben? We rested for a while in the afternoon before we went to get some clothes,” she explained. “We’ve just arrived home, so we decided to try on our clothes for everyone to see. Are you satisfied with this?”
“Young Master Ben?”
Elation sparked in Ben’s heart when he heard that. That was right. He was a Taylor as well, and he was a young master of the family. He should have been living the life of an affluent young master from the start.
Unfortunately, five years ago, he had been kicked out of the Taylor family when he was still young because of the affair between his sister and jackie. It made him a laughingstock—trash of society who everyone sneered and looked down upon—a useless scum who only knew how to play video games.
When he was younger, the children of other affluent families who had been his playmates had all abandoned him eventually.
Being addressed so respectfully again caused a swirl of emotions to stir within his heart.
That was right. He was Young Master Ben from the very start. Finally, he was getting the respect he deserved!
“What’s wrong, Young Master Ben? What happened?” The bodyguard asked, puzzled.
Chapter 603
“It’s nothing!” Ben smiled awkwardly and continued eating.
“You look good!” jackie also smiled. “But those words on your chests, ‘the Bodyguards of the Taylor Family’, that’s too attention-grabbing. It’s like you’re trying to tell everyone that the Taylor family has bodyguards!”
“Does it matter? We’re rich now. Isn’t it normal to hire bodyguards?”
Fiona grinned. “We’ll be going to the countryside for a picnic tomorrow, but since jackie is coming with us, you all won’t have to come along. You’ll only have to follow us if Xena and I go out shopping in the afternoon! Just two of you will do. It’ll be too striking if too many of you were to come!”
“Yes, ma’am. Then we’ll take our leave and patrol the area!”
Elaine smiled and brought her bodyguards out.
“Yay! We’re going out tomorrow!” Kylie was extremely elated, her gaze filled with anticipation.
After dinner, Kylie returned to her room to rest.
Meanwhile, jackie and Selena took a shower and laid on their bed.
“We can’t let Kylie know what happened this morning. She’d be worried!” Selena spoke after thinking about it.
jackie nodded. “Agreed. I never thought Quil would be so bold. Never mind that he lashed out against me, he even hired people to kidnap you and Xena—and even Mother!”
A frown formed between Selena’s brows. “Now, Quil is dead. I did some digging of my own and found out that there are two Xenos families in Sky City, and they’re both pretty strong. We don’t know which family he belongs to, but it doesn’t matter. They’ll probably come to you for revenge once they find out that you killed Quil!”
After she said that, Selena thought about it for a while before she added, “Dear, did you hire so many bodyguards because you were worried about this?”
jackie looked at her picture-perfect face before him. “I hired them because I’m worried about you and your mother’s safety the next time you go out. Besides, we’re rich now. It’s normal to hire bodyguards!”
Here, he paused for a bit before continuing nonchalantly, “As for the Xenos family, don’t worry about that. It won’t be easy for them to find out the truth since I took no prisoners. Besides, there’s always a solution to a problem. If we really can’t avoid conflict, I’m pretty good friends with the Goddess of War—we can go to her for help!”
Selena’s anxiety finally eased after she heard what her husband said. She bobbed her head. “By the way, Xena’s really weird. She’s never initiated a family outing before, and even if she did, it’d usually just be her and Ben. Why would she think of including us in her plans this time?”
jackie’s brows furrowed. “You also thought it was strange, dear? I thought so, too. Seems like Xena did a one-eighty flip. Perhaps she’s in a good mood today because I gave her one million dollars?”
Selena’s expression darkened when she heard that. “She’s definitely seeing a man on the side while using my brother as a cover,” she said, vexed. “Didn’t we say that we’d find that man and break my brother’s heart once we had evidence? Why did you go and give her money instead?”
After she said that, she rolled her eyes at jackie. “Don’t tell me that you gave her money because she’s good-looking?”
“Her?”
jackie did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Not only is she unattractive compared to you, but she’s also unattractive even compared to Sharon. Why would I give her money because she’s good-looking? It’s like this…”
Selena’s anger only abated after she listened to jackie’s explanation. “So you’re trying to get her to lower her guard and reveal her true colors later on!”
jackie nodded. “But I still don’t get why she suddenly asked us all to go out!”
Chapter 604
“I know. I really don’t understand. Is it because you saved her and gave her a million dollars, or has she really had a change of heart?” Selena speculated for a moment.
“A change of heart?” jackie flashed a frosty smile. “A leopardess like this can never change her spots. She’s extremely greedy—even greedier than your mother. There’s a possibility that she’s got some devious scheme in the works for tomorrow!”
“No way. We’re going out and she’s scheming?”
Selena smiled and lay down after turning the lights off. “Let’s go to sleep!”
jackie hugged her from behind. “Dear, we were interrupted by Kylie last night, but she’s asleep in her room now. Should we…”
“Seriously? Why are you always thinking of such perverted things, you b*stard!”
Panic suddenly gripped Selena’s chest. There was a hint of coyness in her tone.
jackie was delighted when he sensed that coyness. He decided to continue with the game.
He flipped Selena over and pressed his mouth against hers.
“Mmph!”
Selena was extremely nervous, but she wrapped her slim, tapered hands around jackie anyway. The two became one.
The next morning, Selena stretched her body after she woke up. Her face was slightly flushed, and her skin looked bright and clear.
“You’re beautiful, dear!”
jackie stared at her, goggle-eyed.
“Hmph. You didn’t even ask for my permission last night and you went ahead and bullied me!” Selena harrumphed, but warmth emanated from her belly.
To be fair, she had been dead drunk on her wedding night and could not remember anything that had happened between them.
“your entire face is red, dear. I think I’m falling deeper and deeper in love with you!”
jackie chuckled and hugged Selena who had just gotten off the bed.
“Since when did you learn how to speak such sweet nothings!”
Selena picked her clothes up from the floor and rolled her eyes at him. “Turn around. I’m changing!”
Selena’s cheeks were stained red as she forcibly turned jackie around.
jackie spoke, grinning as his heart was just as full of warmth as before. It seemed that the two were just about to begin a passionate love story.
“Agh, so annoying. Quiet, you!”
Selena was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it. After she finished changing, she ran over and gave jackie a vicious pinch on the back.
“I never thought you’d have such wild moments too, dear!”
Yet jackie turned around and embraced her, not the least bit irritated. He planted a kiss on her forehead. “All right. Let’s wash up and head down for breakfast!”
“All right!”
Selena resembled a preening cat in jackie’s embrace, purring with delight. The smile on her face was small and sweet.
Before, she had hoped to experience this feeling—that she was protected. However, she had no choice but to be strong for her family when jackie was not around. She had no choice but to be a strong, independent woman who had to carry the weight of her family on her shoulders.
Chapter 605
Now that jackie was back, she had hope.
“Right. No matter what happens, you have to promise me one thing, dear!” Selena lifted her chin and told jackie.
“What is it? I’ll promise you anything!” jackie smiled.
“We must find the man Xena’s seeing. She’s extremely clever, so we have to be cautious not to alert her!”
Selena thought about it for a while. Then she said, huffing, “Xena has my brother and my parents eating out of her palm now. They won’t believe whatever you and I say. That’s why we have to catch them in the act and let my brother see who she really is. Only then will he completely give up on her!”
“All right, I get it. Don’t worry. I’ll be discreet, and I’ll catch the man she’s seeing!” jackie nodded and promised.
After they washed up, they went into Kylie’s room to wake her up before the three went down for breakfast.
When breakfast was done, everyone got into their cars and drove to a small river in the countryside. They set up their barbecue pit, took out the ingredients, and began grilling the food.
There were usually plenty of people barbecuing around the area since it was specially reserved for barbecues. There were even hired staff to clear the place. However, they would need to pay 20 dollars to use the facilities.
On one side, there was a public toilet, as well as a few pavilions for everyone to rest and play.
Not too far away was a fairly large supermarket. Business was pretty good in a place like this.
“Mmph! It’s so good!” Kylie relished her chicken skewer.
“It’s a little hot today. You and Ben are drenched in sweat, jackie!”
Xena smiled. She had been calling out jackie’s name in an endearing tone since they left the house that morning. It was evident that she was a lot closer to him now.
“Oh, right. Thanks for yesterday, jackie. I would’ve been dead if it weren’t for you. You’re my savior!”
Xena smiled and added, “I’ll go to the supermarket and buy some water for all of you!”
“Don’t sweat it. We’re family. I couldn’t just leave you to die. Consider your debt paid as long as you continue your loving relationship with Ben!” jackie chuckled as he replied.
“Don’t worry. It’ll happen!”
Xena stood up and wheeled around, heading toward the supermarket.
She arrived at the supermarket and bought quite a few bottles of mineral water.
She looked at jackie from a distance. Once she was sure that no one was around, she opened one of the bottles and popped the medicine into it.
Of course, the pill was amazing. It completely dissolved and no one could tell that it was poisoned.
Once the poison was completely invisible to the naked eye, Xena heaved an internal sigh of relief. She capped the bottle and placed it on top of the bag, walking towards jackie and the others.
She was well aware that jackie was intelligent. If she gave him the bottle that had an opened cap, he would definitely be suspicious.
However, she was not an idiot either. She placed the bag on the ground when she arrived at jackie’s side and immediately took the bottle, wrenching its cap off. She thrust it to him. “Here, jackie. Drink some water. Look at you. You’re bathing in sweat!”
“Oh!”
jackie frowned. Xena was being a little too nice to him.
Still, it was just a bottle of water. He was probably reading too much into it. He took the bottle from her. “Thanks!”
Chapter 606
From the side, Ben’s brows furrowed as he was grilling the meat. He could not comprehend the scene before him.
He was Xena’s boyfriend, not jackie. Why was she never this considerate with him?
Furthermore, jackie was his brother-in-law. Xena’s actions twisted his guts.
Xena’s heart leaped in excitement when jackie took the bottle. She immediately whipped out another bottle and opened it for Ben. “Here you go, Ben. You’re drenched in sweat, too!”
“Okay!”
Ben was delighted. He instantly snatched the bottle and took a big gulp out of it.
“We’ll grab it ourselves!”
Selena forced a polite smile but was not very happy. jackie was her husband. Since when was Xena responsible for caring for him?
Besides, she even opened the cap for him. This was being a little too friendly. Even if she did that, she should have given the bottle to Ben first. Why did she let jackie take it first?
Here, Selena could not help but suspect that she was beginning to like jackie just because he saved her yesterday, and because he had given her a million dollars. Even if she did not like him, it was possible that she was trying to seduce him now that she knew that he was rich, so that she could siphon some money from him.
At this moment, jackie took the bottle and was about to take a sip, but he stopped.
Xena frowned. Was jackie able to detect even a colorless, tasteless poison?
Anxiety clutched at her heart when she considered the possibility. jackie was someone who could kill without blinking. He would probably give her a single punch and send her into oblivion if he found out she tried to poison him.
Her expression darkened. She stared at jackie, trepidation pounding in her chest. She felt as though she could hear her own pulse.
“What’s wrong, jackie? Aren’t you thirsty?” Xena gulped and posed the question tentatively.
jackie craned his head to look at her and flashed a wan smile. “Of course, I’m thirsty!”
After saying that, he tilted his head back and gulped the water down, drinking more than half of it in one go. In the end, only a little bit was left. He carelessly flung it into the trash can beside him.
He was well aware that there was something in the water—and he was even more aware of what exactly was in it.
For a brief moment, a murderous intent surged within jackie. He wanted to shred that dmn btch apart. However, he quickly toned down on his anger.
He remembered what Selena had told him that morning, and he remembered his promise to her—that he would not alert Xena to his actions. They needed to weed out the man she was seeing, and they needed to show Ben that Xena was seeing someone else behind his back.
Besides, Ben was here now, and so were Fiona and the others. He would have no way to explain himself if he killed Xena.
Would they even believe him if he told them the water was poisoned? The poison would probably take about a month to manifest, so he would be fine for now, almost as if he had never drunk any poison. Would they believe him? A poison like this was truly dangerous.
More importantly, even if they did believe him, Xena would never admit to it. They would not be able to do anything if she insisted that she did not know anything, and she would probably shift the blame to the bottled water company.
Xena heaved an internal sigh of relief when she saw jackie drinking the water—and plenty of it to boot.
He probably did not know anything. Otherwise, he would not have drank nearly the entire bottle in one go. There would be absolutely no evidence then.
“Come on, let’s eat! The wings are ready!”
Chapter 607
jackie distributed the freshly barbecued wings to everyone. After a while, he stood up. “Take your time eating it. I’m going to the toilet.”
After he ducked into a cubicle, he whipped out a silver needle and pricked his skin on several acupuncture points.
At that moment, he vomited all the poison in his stomach.
jackie flashed a cold smile after he kept the silver needle away. “This poison isn’t a bad idea at all, but it’s shallow of her to try to kill me with this!”
He walked out nonchalantly.
At around one in the afternoon, everyone packed up and drove home.
Xena retreated to her room to rest once they arrived home. Meanwhile, jackie took Selena out for a stroll through the small patch of forest outside their villa.
“What on earth happened to Xena? She hated your guts before, and now she’s treating you like a god. Never mind her buying water for you—she even opened the cap for you!”
Selena was still unhappy when she thought about what had happened earlier.
“Selena, she’s not being nice to me. She poisoned that bottle of water!”
Yet, jackie gave her a frosty smile. “If I hadn’t promised you that I’d remain discreet just so we can weed out the man she’s seeing, I would’ve killed her on the spot!”
“What?!” Selena was shocked. “That–that bottle was poisoned? No way. Didn’t she just buy it?”
jackie smiled again. “She did, but she dropped the poison in before giving it to me. She even pretended to open the cap for me because she was afraid I’d realize the cap had been opened before!”
“My god. No way. I really thought she had turned over a new leaf just because you saved her and that she wanted to establish a good relationship with you. Who knew the witch would dare to poison you!”
Selena was extremely angry. “God. You’re such an idiot, dear,” she quickly added, frightened. “Why did you drink that water, then? And you drank almost all of it!”
“Don’t worry. Your husband is a miracle doctor. I’ve solved this little problem a long time ago!”
jackie chuckled and spoke, “The poison will probably take about a month to manifest if you don’t treat it, but since I’ve treated it, it won’t be a problem.”
“I’m so mad! I’m going to kill that b*tch!”
The more Selena thought about it, the angrier she became. Xena was really rotten to the core. Fortunately, jackie was a doctor and sensed that something was off soon enough to cure himself of the poison. What would happen if it happened to a regular joe? Was she really going to resign herself to the fate of a widow?
However, she only took two steps before jackie dragged her back. “What are you doing? You’re going to alert her if you do this. Besides, what proof do you have now? If you go, she might just turn the tables on us and knock you down senseless instead, and she’ll frame us both. Your brother and your mother won’t believe you. They’ll definitely think you’re still against her!”
“But I just get so frustrated when I think about it!”
Selena was so angry that she stomped her foot against the ground.
“Don’t worry. I’m going to use her own trick against her. She thinks that I drank that poison so naturally, she’d want to report the entire situation to her man. I believe someone is manipulating her actions from behind the scenes because no ordinary person can procure that poison so easily!”
jackie smiled. He was well aware that the poison Xena had fed him was probably the same poison Ken and Neil had intended to give Fiona, which would have been fed to him eventually.
That was why he surmised that the man behind Xena’s back was probably Ken Clark or Neil Hugo. They knew that she was someone who would do anything for money, and that was probably why they had instructed her to administer the poison on him.
Chapter 608
“You’re right. It’s frustrating, but we have to hold our anger back for now. I believe our enemy doesn’t have any precautions set in place. He’ll definitely reveal himself soon!”
Selena finally calmed down after a while. How could she not control herself when jackie was able to control himself and drink the poison even after knowing that the water had been poisoned?
The only thing she could do was to hold it all in—for the sake of her brother and her parents so that they would not be blinded any further by this woman.
“Do we have any countermeasures? Or do we just wait like this?”
Selena could not help but say after thinking about it, “I really think we should hurry up and catch that b*tch while she’s with the man.”
jackie flashed a bitter smile. “I’m just worried that this man isn’t in an intimate relationship with her. It’ll be impossible for us to catch them on the same bed. What if the man just wanted to use Xena to give the poison to me? What if he had already given Xena some down payment earlier? She would have the money to buy all those clothes and our judgment would’ve been wrong!”
Selena also nodded. “You’re right. If that were the case, my brother will have zero trust in you!”
jackie also frowned. Dealing with this entire scenario was harder than slaughtering enemies on the battlefield. He noticed that Xena had been buying new clothes and bags quite frequently. She dressed more seductively, as well. Both he and Selena had assumed that she was seeing a man on the side and that she had traded her body for money. They thought she was seeing two men at the same time.
However, Xena poisoning him today caused jackie some uncertainty about his initial judgment. If the man had only given her money to administer poison, how was he going to explain it to Ben?
“I really think we need to be super cautious about everything we do!”
The crease between Selena’s brows deepened. She did not want to waste a single moment because having a woman like Xena right beside her was like being with a viper in a pit.
Today, she had given jackie the poison. In the future, she might give it to Ben, or her parents. For a woman as venomous as her, they needed to reveal her true colors as soon as possible.
“Dear, do you have such little faith in your husband?”
jackie flashed her a bitter smile. “I’ve told the bodyguards at the gate a long time ago to keep tabs on her. If they see Xena walking out alone, without a bodyguard or Ben, they’ll report it to me in secret,” he said. “I’ve also secretly installed a bug and tracking device on her today.”
“Seriously? You’re amazing, dear!”
Selena was suddenly delighted when she heard that. She impulsively flung her arms around jackie’s neck, giving him a peck on the cheek. “Now I know you’ve had a plan all along, dear.”
“Of course. Xena’s very cunning. It’ll be difficult to unravel her schemes if we don’t do some scheming of our own.”
When jackie pressed a button on his side, he could hear everything she was doing.
“All right, Ben. It’s getting late. Rest nicely at home and wait for me. My friends have asked me out for karaoke.”
Xena’s voice drifted.
jackie and Selena shared a glance when they heard this. Their hearts leaped in delight. Was Xena really going to head out alone? This was too much of a coincidence. They actually heard what they wanted to hear the moment they decided to eavesdrop on her.
Ben’s voice rang out as well. “Bring me along, Xena. I’m a pretty good singer, too. I’m so bored at home. You never bring me out when you see your friends!”
Xena replied, “Why would you come along? They won’t be happy if you’re with me. We’ve already said that we wouldn’t bring others to our meetings, and we wouldn’t bring men along. Us girls are only able to completely relax when we’re singing on our own!”
Chapter 609
Xena paused for a while before resuming, “Right. Don’t call me at night either, okay? We always play a game during our gatherings where we’d put all of our phones on the table, and the owner of the phone that’s the first to ring will be the one to pick up the bill. We always end up spending over ten thousand dollars, so I definitely don’t want to pay. We have to save up a bit. Understand?”
“Then, when will you be back?”
Ben’s voice rang from the listening device again.
“Seriously, Ben? Why do I feel like you’ve been nagging at me more and more lately? My friends and I always hang out, drinking until late in the night. What do you mean ‘when am I coming back’? Of course, we’re going to go to a hotel to sleep. I’ll come back in the morning!”
Xena was getting a little impatient. “All right, I’m off. See you tomorrow!”
Soon after, they heard the thud of a closing door. It seemed that Xena had gone out.
jackie and Selena heard the clicking of heels from outside, growing softer as the sound faded into the distance and followed its master down the stairs.
“Dear, it seems like Xena’s going to see that man. This is a golden opportunity for us!” Selena spoke.
jackie nodded. “She definitely thinks that I’ve been poisoned. Now, she either can’t wait to ask for her reward or she’s going to report the incident to him. As to whether she’s in an intimate relationship with that man, I don’t dare to ascertain just yet.”
“I do think they’re in a physical relationship!”
Selena mulled over it for a while, then she spoke in a solemn tone, “I have a strong feeling that they are since she’s so secretive about it. She wouldn’t do this if they weren’t in a physical relationship. Secondly, never mind that she’s been dressing more provocatively lately, she’s also been spraying on some heavy perfume. The possibility of them being lovers is very large.”
“All right. I trust your judgment. We can call your brother now and find our proof!”
jackie gave her a small smile and together, they left their room. They also temporarily disabled the eavesdropping function on the device, only leaving the tracking function on.
“Mr. jackie…”
They did not expect the bodyguard at the entrance to approach them as soon as they exited. “Mr. jackie, Xena…”
It was evident he had come over to report the situation.
“Never mind,” jackie interrupted him. “I know what’s going on. Go down now!”
The bodyguard nodded and went down.
jackie and Selena stood in front of Ben’s room, their insides stirring with uneasiness. In the end, Selena sighed heavily before knocking on the door.
“Sis? jackie? What’s going on?”
Ben stared at the two of them suspiciously when he opened the door.
“Let’s go. Don’t forget that promise you and jackie made. If you find her with another man, you’ll kill her yourself. Right?”
Selena’s expression darkened as she looked at her brother, utterly solemn.
Chapter 610
“Sis, what are you talking about? Hasn’t she gone for a karaoke session with her girlfriends?”
Ben frowned. His features twisted into a slight grimace. Now that his sister and jackie came over looking for him, they probably had some measure of certainty in themselves.
He never wanted to believe what they said, but he himself felt that Xena had changed a lot lately. She would frequently go out with her so-called girlfriends, and she would never bring him along.
Still, he harbored hopes that everything was a fluke and that he was reading too much into her actions. He hoped that jackie would never find his evidence, and he definitely hoped that Xena would wed him and that they would have the wedding soon.
Yet this day had come, and it had arrived so soon, too. jackie and Selena were both standing at his door.
“How can you be so idiotic, brother? Both of you are about to get married. She’s your fiancée. Why wouldn’t she bring you along if she’s going to see her girlfriends for karaoke? Besides, this isn’t just a one-time thing, right?”
Selena was speechless for a while before she spoke with a tinge of disappointment.
“But Sis, she herself said that her girlfriends don’t bring outsiders along and that they can only loosen up when they’re alone among themselves. That’s why she doesn’t bring me along…”
Ben insisted on believing in Xena.
“So…are you coming along? She’s definitely going to see a man. Don’t tell me you’re chickening out now? Why are you so scared if you trust her so much?” Selena spoke with irritation in her voice, her arms folded across her chest.
“Let’s go, then. I refuse to believe she’ll do something like that to me after all I’ve done for her!”
Ben clenched his palm into a fist and stomped out of the door, trudging down the stairs.
Selena shot jackie a glance and the two immediately trailed after him. The three quickly got into a car and drove out.
“But Sis, Xena has been out for a few good minutes now. Can we even find her? Don’t tell me you know where she is.”
Ben’s heart palpitated as he sat at the back.
He knew that jackie was clever and that he would always have a plan in wait. Since he and his sister had brought him out so confidently, they probably had pretty good proof already.
Selena, who sat beside jackie, took his phone out. She turned it on and showed it to Ben.
“You two planted a tracking device on her?”
Ben watched the flashing dot on the screen moving forward. His expression darkened.
“We had no choice. Xena’s extremely sneaky. We’d be found out long ago if we didn’t do this. That’s why the best method is to let her go first before following her.”
Selena’s lips curled into a bitter smile. Although she felt that this method was a little underhanded, she had no choice but to go along with it for the sake of her little brother, so that he would finally open his eyes to the truth.
“She stops! It’s the Grand Star Hotel!” Selena yelled abruptly as she quickly realized that the red dot stopped moving as soon as it arrived at the Grand Star Hotel.
Chapter 611
After she spoke her last word, she wheeled around to look at Ben. His face went white, as though an artist had forgotten to put any color on his face.
A few seconds of silence filled the car before Ben blurted awkwardly, “There are several restaurants on the first floor. Perhaps she made an appointment with her girlfriends to have dinner first, or perhaps they agreed to meet at the hotel before they head out for karaoke? Isn’t it normal?”
Ben paused for a moment and then his face lit up as if some idea popped up in his mind. “Look! Aren’t there a few bars next to the Grand Star Hotel? They could’ve just parked their cars in the hotel’s parking lot and plan to walk over to these bars, right? That’s possible, too! So, Sis, don’t simply make assumptions. I believe in Xena—she’s not a slutty person!”
Selena was stunned. She could not believe that up until this moment, her dear brother still had so much trust in Xena, siding her without hesitation. A cold smile crossed her face as she snorted, “My dear brother, how could you still believe in her? Can’t you tell how cunning and vicious she is? Didn’t you feel she was acting strange when we went for the barbeque this morning?”
“Acting strangely? Which part of her behavior was strange? I didn’t see it!”
Ben frowned. The folds between his brows grew deeper as he tried to recall any strange act from Xena. Suddenly, he shouted out of nowhere, “Oh! Sis, are you referring to when Xena handed jackie a bottle of water? Are you jealous because of that? If that’s the case, Sis, you’re being oversensitive! It’s just a bottle of water, what’s the matter?”
A frosty smile returned to Selena’s face. “Just a bottle of water? Do you know what was in that bottle of water…”
Selena briefly recounted the episode to Ben.
“Impossible! Xena’s no such person! How could she do such a thing? Somebody must have threatened her to do so! Yes! This must be the case, somebody had threatened her!”
The truth could not reach Ben’s ears. He refused to believe it. In his heart, Xena was almost a symbol of an angel—pure and innocent. She had never allowed Ben to touch her even after being together for so long. She told him to wait until the day of their wedding night. Only then, would she allow him to touch her.
A pure-hearted angelic girl like Xena would be hard to find in this world. He truly believed that he was so fortunate to meet such a perfect girl.
As for the fact that Xena always wore sexy and provocative clothing and loved dressing up, that was because Xena was a fan of fashion! There was nothing wrong with her pursuit of fashion. Not to mention, the love for beauty is a woman’s nature.
jackie drove the car and parked outside the Grand Star Hotel as they spoke.
He grabbed his phone from Selena and said in a firm and solemn tone, “Ben, this button will turn on the eavesdropping function of the device that I’ve secretly planted under her bag. This small device not only helps to track but also to listen to the sound around it. The only flaw is that this device can’t record their voices. However, I believe that the eavesdropping function is sufficient for us to know whether or not Xena’s meeting her girlfriends as she said. Once I turn on this button, we’ll know the truth!”
jackie stopped for a moment before he resumed, “The red dot has stopped in this area. This indicates that Xena has arrived at her destination. Now, do you dare turn on the function to listen in on her?”
Ben gritted his teeth, stretched out his finger, and finally tapped on the button on the screen.
A man’s voice came from the phone.
“Baby, finally you’re here! You’ve made me wait for so long!”
A coy woman’s voice emerged in the next second. It belonged to Xena.
“Jeez. I have to sneak out every time I want to see you. I even have to look at the rearview mirror when I drive to make sure nobody follows me. You’ve made me into a thief now. Ivan, I don’t want to live a fearful life like this anymore!”
“Ivan Taylor!” jackie and Selena exchanged glances in unison. Their eyes widened at the fact. They had their guesses and made a lot of speculations, but Ivan Taylor had never crossed their minds. How could they have guessed that the b*stard Xena was seeing was Ivan Taylor!
Moreover, judging from the conversation itself, it was obvious that this was not the first time they were together—they must have been together for a very long time.
Selena switched her gaze over to Ben. This time, Ben was no longer calm. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, staring straight at the phone. Rage was consuming him alive. The veins on his neck were popping out, and at the same time, his eyes reddened.
Chapter 612
“How could it be him?”
Selena’s forehead puckered. She was at a loss for words. If Xena was with the others, it would not cause this much emotional damage. How could it be Ivan Taylor?
Even jackie’s face turned gloomy at this fact.
After all, Ivan was Selena’s cousin. If it was Ken Clark or the others, jackie could have just ended their lives without thinking twice.
Ken and the others were always targeting jackie and his family. They even wanted to slit jackie’s throat. If the poison was given by Ken, jackie would have no worries about killing him.
However, if the person behind it was Ivan Taylor, the situation became more complicated. Ivan is a Taylor and Selena’s cousin, after all. If he sent him to the grave, it would be too much. Besides, Ivan had never inflicted grave harm on jackie before, other than hatred, mockeries and contempts.
Furthermore, if Old Master Taylor knew that jackie had killed his only grandson—Ivan Taylor—he would spew blood to death. Not to mention, Xena was the one who initiated the dirty deed and had offered herself to Ivan. Hence, Ivan could not be blamed completely.
Besides, the Taylor family’s anger would spike if jackie killed Ivan just because of their secret affair.
After all, one hand cannot clap alone. It was not as if Ivan had forced Xena into this.
“Dear, what do you say? I’ll follow you!”
