The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 303 - Same University?!

"You are just half the way of what we had dealt with. Marry her, then we can have a talk on this.." Shawn was clear in his words which made Javier feel the lack of sincerity already.

What if this old man twists the words again?! He has no faith in him at all.

"So..you want me or straightaway to get married to that Emily, right?" he asked to confirm, on which his father nodded his head vigorously. "I want you to get married to her, as soon as possible.."

"What if I tell you that I have no interest in marrying her? I don't want to even get entangled with her. Will you believe my words?" Javier's words shifted his brows from their original place.

It was no lie that this was indeed the very truth that he had kept his mind...

But Shawn wasn't ' easy-going person either. "Well.." Getting his back straight, Shawn stares at his son, "That is entirely in your hand."

"If you do so, you will get the hint of your mother's death, and if you don't... Well, you know the consequences and what things are costing you in this phase."

The simple threat, or the mere reminder of consequences, Javier can't help but feel once again burdened with the things.

He had no such wish to get mingle with Emily, especially when he already has a wife behind everyone's back.

"Also.." Shawn pulled Javier out of his daze to gain his attention. "That hostage is being kept here for way too long now. Talk with Lucas. I want this mess to be cleared up."

"The demands which you have put aren't mere as well. Lucas.. must be in need of time." Javier answered yet his heart was beating at the wrong rate.

Not because he lied to his father but due to the constant fear of returning Jennifer back.

Shawn's eyes turned slightly cold when he saw that his son wasn't agreeing to his words, rather than finding a different possible situation. "That is his work to do."

"We aren't that patient. If he can't provide us with the ruby, then we can simply kill the girl. After all, she is of no use to us."

"Try doing that. I will see how you plan to do so." Javier's grave voice made Shawn's eyes adjust to his changing demure.

His son was either fond of the girl or some other reasons, but she is here, which is causing both of them trouble. At the end of the day, all he wants are ways to eliminate the threat of the point of inconvenience.

'If she's the one.. for whom you are defying me. Javier.. this won't end up being good.' Shawn's thoughts were as dangerous as the top of his tongue.

Sliding the thought back in his mind, he took the glass into his hand. Not leaving a single bit of wine and more, Shawn got up from his seat as his eyes never tore from that of his son, still sitting on the couch.

"Think of what I said earlier. Marry Emily and gain your reward. Do not attach yourself with those unnecessary things, which are bound to leave your side."

….

The next day, things went as usual.

Javier left for the office while Jennifer stayed back. But there's a big headache clinging in her way and that was not done by her parents6' continuous demand.

"I..Know... I will do something. I just need some time, please mother." Jennifer answered as she held her phone near her ears.

The mixed and desired tone was evident, where she tried her best to get her mother in a convincing state.

"But Jennifer it is long! Think about Lucas and well, he loves you, my dear. Is holding him back the right thing to do?" Amelia herself wasn't aware how much of sweetness she had to use with this child of hers.

After all, convincing her was the best solution and the only way left for them to actually get the things they ever wished for.

"I understand your concern as well. But things are complicated. The Johnsons have already arranged the best security around their mansion. The.. I mean my kidnapper doesn't even let me out."

Jennifer's only way to escape this was to make up a lie and put the stake on Johnson's head.

The entire situation had brought a frown over her forehead when she was staring outside the window on the terrace. "Please… taking a risk is.. superb, dangerous and hard..."

"There will not be any risk." Amelia answered with her firm grip voice, but Jennifer never agreed to the same, "Alright. Give me some time. I will revert back to you very soon then.."

Without providing any chance to her mother, to convey her message or something else, she hung up.

Starting the mini phone in her hand, it became much more difficult for her to handle her own mindless emotions. They constantly made her wonder, what was she doing here?

As Javier's wife? But that is unknown to the rest of the world.

'In everyone's eyes, I'm his.. hostage. Will I ever be getting the symbol of the wife as well?' She saw the minor chances of the same.

The man, who was hiding something from everyone. How can he tell her the reason behind his actions too?

'I better try to talk with Austin about this..' knowing that he is really calculative, she tried calling his number. Unfortunately, the call never went to the other side.

"Oh, God.. don't tell me that outgoings aren't available from this phone.." She was facing this issue many times as her face grew into displeasure.

'Looks like I will have to make some other arrangements..' rotating from her spot, her eyes roam to view each corner of the room.

As her eyes scanned through all the view, her eyes stopped at one spot. That was none other than Javier's cabinet. "He has a phone.."

She remembered very well that he has a special kind of phone, which can't be traced at all.

Gulping the saliva in her mouth, her legs moved in the direction of his closet when she held its handle with her shaky hands.

'Just do it, Jennifer. In the end, you must make a call to Austin..' since she can't delay this anymore, Jennifer opened the closet and tried to search for the phone in-between clothes.

Either to be a drawer or the packets of his pants, nothing can either hand. She was still empty-handed, which made her deeply wonder where could be the phone-like thing?

Where can he keep it? She wasn't sure herself.

But her urge to get her hands on that special kind of phone was way more. When she didn't find a single hint in his closet, Jenifer moved towards the other drawer that was independent of its own.

She doubted if there would be something unusual yet why waste an opportunity. Opening the first drawer, she found it empty. Following that, she opened the second drawer but there wasn't the phone that she was looking for.

Unfortunately,? her eyes caught something else which gained her minor interest test. "These papers.." she could witness some certificates in the drawers.

They were named by Javier's name and the undersigned was of the head. "M..My university?'' She found it ridiculous and funny.

Why will Javier have a certificate from the same university as hers? Moreover, the signs audited were really of the head of their university.

"What is the certificate of my university doing with him? Didn't he study here? Or did he go abroad?" dozens of false possible claims revolved in her mind but that was likely to be untrue.

The name was clear. It was the certificate issued by the Backline University of the North, in the same batch of hers.

Moreover, that wasn't the entire thing that she landed herself to see.

Along with this certification was a medal. Adjatched to it was a nice photograph of Javier, standing with a trophy in his hand, with a faint smile. "This… isn't this the same event that took place in the second semester?"

She remembered it precisely, all because one of the students of their own class won this.

The teacher had hundreds of praises for the same student. Unfortunately, neither she nor Hannah was able to find the person out.

Not because they didn't know, but the man was told to be the secretive one ever. The only announcement that reached their ears was his studying in their batch, nothing more or less.

"But if..these things are lying with Javier..then.." the thought made her take a step back when she gazed at those items with her wide eyes.

Biting her lower lip, she caressed the picture lightly while rubbing her eyes once to make sure that there wasn't any illusion which she faced.

'This isn't my wrong vision. This means…. Javier really attended Backline university?'
