Chapter 318 - Return Jennifer!

While James was still very much confident regarding Olivia being the downfall of Lucas, on the other hand, Lucas was fuming in anger already.

Slamming the door of his own cabin, Lucas's eyes had already turned bloodshot. To begin with, there seemed no rest, all that surfaced was an uneasiness that was bubbling inside his stomach.

At the same time, Olivia, who was earlier working in her cabin, heard a loud thud. Immediately rushing to his side, she stood on the entrance to note him already in a bad mood.

He was standing near his wide window to stare out of the building at the hustle-bustle of the outside.

But the drop in his aura was quite evident which was making the air around thick!

"Lucas…" mumbling his name, she walked inside to close the door behind her. "W-why are you raging up?"

"Olivia, this James is bent on destroying and snatching everything from me.." Lucas's words travel into her ears to make her frown.

She wasn't surprised, since the man was venting all his hatred which he had hidden in the past few years. 'Why does this shock him? Didn't we all have an idea about this?'

If he believed James to act like a good boy, then this was his deadliest nightmare since the man is the wolf under the cover of an obedient son.

Keeping her worried expressions, she asked,? "What has he done to you then?"

"Fired your subordinate. Haven't you heard about this?" Hearing this, Olivia gulped the saliva present in her mouth.

Practically, there was no shift in her body language but her eyes omitted the glare. Her nails were digging inside the flesh of her hand to realize the intensity of this current position.

"Lucas, he is trying to do whatever he can to get himself all the empire to himself. If you wish to outshine him then you will have to do something outstanding.."

"Anything which will once again gain Elder Smith's interest in you and he sees your inner abilities to send this man back to abroad!" Her words made? Lucas turn around to stare at her body which had turned slightly rigid.

When his face came into view, she saw a sly smirk start to curve his lips upwards as she tried to give her best to not fall on the ground beneath her.

'He..is acting too strange now…' Knowing him, his mind must be working in the wrong direction.

His prying eyes were scanning her from top to bottom when he walked further by her side, "You are correct. I will have to do something outstanding.."

But Olivia sensed his thinking won't be liked by her either. Why was she getting the feeling of everything going against her and in favor of James!?

In return, Lucas came to sit on his chair when he picked his phone before his eyes were stagnant to a specific contact. "Grandfather's plan of getting me married to Jennifer is still not finished.."

"Y-you.. already called Javier Johnson. He t-told you to give him ruby but he never contacted you sooner.." Olivia answered to realize his eyes curved and lips never dimmed with the time.

It was fixed, or to begin with, remained throughout their conversation.

While his lips sealed his giant smile, his eyes were converted into crystal moon showing how much he yearned for the same power in his household.

Taking a deep breath, his fingers played on the screen of his phone to mutter, giving Olivia a heart attack again.

"Y-You know that....taking nay wrong step might damage your reputation even more...?" she asked in with the evident conscious tone, which gave Lu as a nod.

In his defense, he knew what he is planning to do very well, and this is what makes Olivia worried about hell.

Subconsciously, her grip tightened around her clothing, as he answered with a cautious and devilish plan of his.

"So what if Javier Johnson isn't picking up and reverting? Let us contact Shawn Johnson yourself.. let's see if he can deny the exchange of Ruby and Jennifer or not… since the man in power decides what is supposed to be done.."

…..

Meanwhile, Jennifer was presently standing at her balcony to stare out in the Garden of the Johnsons. It was, no doubt, beautiful in its own way.

Yet her hands were clutching her heart tightly since her mind was already revolving around a crucial matter for a long.

'For how long can I hide about my parents' presence in this state? Sooner or later, I will have to reveal this to Javier…' at the end of the day, he is her husband now.

She can't leave this state anymore, meanwhile, Lucas won't let her leave his side as well until the news of her marriage travels his ears.

'Should I just go and tell him about this?' She was a hell of confusion regarding the entire messy situation that she didn't hold the power of.

With no options present currently either in her hand or so, Jennifer turned around to step out of the balcony to arrive in the lobby outside the room.

Making her way towards Javier, she came across a butler on her way. "Um… May I know where Javier is right now?"

The butler was carrying some clothes when he answered, "I just served the Elder Master Johnson. First Master and second master are both with the elder."

"Alright. Thank you.." Jennifer passed him a smile before she took steps to take a deep breath. Closing her eyes, she brought her hand near her chest, 'This will be fine. After all, what worse situation can arise anymore?'

With this mere thought, Jennifer stepped out to come near the study space of the Elder, only to halt in her way when the words traveled into her ears.

"Lucas is ready to exchange Javier. I believe this is the time to just go ahead with the procedure and do the exchange of the girl and the ruby!"
