Jason picked up his phone again. This was the first time he’d felt so panicked in his 28 years of life. The veins on his forehead halged, and he sounded positively menacing as he snarled, “I want you to find out where Natale is and do it right now! I need to know her exact location!”
Chandler was baffled. Had Natalie gone missing? He didn’t dare ask any questions, though. He said, “Yes, sir
Jason stood where he was and shakily pulled out a cigarette. His hands trembled so badly that he failed to light it despite multiple attempts This pissed him off, and he trashed the bedroom, stopping only when Chandler
called him back.
“Mr. Pereira, Mrs Pereira has deregistered all her information. I can’t track her down right now,” Chandler said
Jason roared almost psychotically, “You worthless piece of shit!”
Then, he destroyed his phone in a fit of rage
Did Natalie really not want him anymore? How was that possible? She’d promised to love him and be with him for life–how could she go back on her word?
His heart twisted painfully, and he panted so heavily that he almost felt like he was suffocating. He scowled, suddenly thinking of someone. Then, he bolted out of the house and into his car
At the Zimmerman residence in Grendale, a maid approached Benjamin, who was eating. She said, “Mr
Zimmerman, Mr Pereira wants to see you.
Benjamin put his cutlery down, his gaze turning frosty. “He came faster than I expected
The maid asked, “Should I invite him in?”
Benjamin got up “I don’t want him to dirty my home
The cold wind made the tree branches dance, rustling the leaves. Benjamin walked out of the house and met
Jason’s gaze
jason shot forward. “Where have you hidden Natalie?”
Benjamin tucked his hands m’hus pockets and’s urled his lip mockingly I can’t believe you are all the way
here to look for your wife, Mr Pereira Dm you think people will laugh at you to that?
Jason didn’t bother playing nice He grabbed Benjamin by the collar, his face twisting with rage as he started
Stop bullshitting, Benjamin. She doesn’t know many people in Grendale–you’re the only one who could’ve pulled off something like this without anyone knowing
“Be frank with me! You know what I’m capable of
Benjamin knew about Jason’s background, of course. The latter had connections both in law enforcement and
the underworld.
But Benjamin had a few tricks up his sleeve, too. How else could he have attained the heights he had in the legal
industry? And that was why he wasn’t afraid of Jason.
Benjamin shot Jason a frosty look that carried hints of mockery. “You don’t deserve to know where she is,
Jason. Scum like you shouldn’t even show your face before her.”
Jason punched Benjamin in the face as soon as the words fell. Benjamin wasn’t a pushover–he returned the
favor, landing a punch at the corner of Jason’s mouth.
The two got into a tussle and started punching and kicking each other
Jason’s eyes gleamed with ferocity as he snapped, “Tell me where Natalie is, or I’ll make you and your family go
down together!”
Benjamin refused to back down. His eyes glinted with murderous intent as he retorted, “Do it if you dare–1
won’t tell you even if you do! She’ll never forgive you, Jason! There was no chance of her forgiving you the moment you took away her corneas to be given to Sienna! It’s not happening in this lifetime!
Jason was stunned, and it took him a while to return to his senses.
Natalie knew about that
