It couldn't be Maverick. No. Jake shook his head to get rid of such horrific thoughts. It couldn't be Maverick because if he was involved then, it would mean that Amanda was involved as well and Amanda couldn't be involved. She wouldn't do this to him again, not after she had fallen in love with him. Jake shook his head violently. His wife couldn't be responsible. It could be that The Chairman had found some fault in the last assignment. But if that was the case, he should just tell him instead of plotting his downfall. Again what did he know about drug Lords? That was it, the Chairman wanted revenge on him for what he did to him. And if that was the case then he wasn't going to be gone for long. After a few hours, Levi would come and bail him out and then give him a stern warning. He couldn't wait. He sat back quietly, deciding to keep mute till they would come for him and he was sure that it will be soon."Awfully quiet back there Swanson," Stiles said as he focused his gaze on the
Jake raised his eyebrows unsure of what Amanda's word meant. He didn't remember telling her that he was arrested, so how did she know. And more importantly, why was there a wicked smile on her face. "Amanda, what are you doing here and how did you find out that I was here?" "OMG, Jake sometimes you can be really dumb. Must everything be spelled out for you? I'm the reason why you are here!" Amanda said joyfully, and this made Jake fall back on the chair for support. His brain kept telling him that she was just lying. Of course, it couldn't have been a plan. She wouldn't do that to him. At least not again."You promised." He whispered. "You said you loved me." Jake's heart was breaking for the second time and somehow it hurt more than it had the first time. How could he keep falling for the same thing day by day? What has he ever done to her? More questions ran through his mind as he stared intently at the woman who he thought had changed. She played him well, made him fall in love w
Jake blinked his eyes rapidly, he had to be dreaming. Sasha was in the hospital and not standing in front of his cell with a worried look on her face. He stretched forth his hands to touch her, just to know if she was real. Sasha took his hands in hers."It really is you! How did you get here?! You are supposed to be sick and in the hospital. Wait," Jake took a pause to consider the odds leveled against him. "You aren't a part of this, are you?" "I don't know what it is you are talking about but I am not a part of anything. I was partly awake when I heard Amanda tell me all about what she plans to do to you. I pretended to be asleep till she was done and when she left, I just followed her and here I am. Jake, why would you lie to me?" "Sash, I didn't lie to you.""Yes, you did. You told me that everything is alright between you guys. Well, a wife who loves her husband the way you claimed Amanda loves you, would never do this kind of thing and she said that it is not the first time!"
Sasha ignored the fast pace of her heartbeat as she stared at Jake. She could see the tears threatening to fall from his eyes but she had to stand firm in her decision. Jake had to be taught a lesson, one way or the other. Sebastian couldn't understand the weird energy that existed between the two. He guessed it had something to do with Sasha swearing to never talk to Jake again but it was best to stay out of anything that had to do with Jake's personal life till he was told otherwise. "How are we going to hack into the system?" Sebastian asked, hoping to release the tension in the air. "I know a guy that works at an IT firm. He is the best at what he does and I believe that he will be more than willing to help us," Sasha said."Why would he be more than willing?" Jake asked skeptically."Because he has a crush on me. Do you have a problem with that?" Jake didn't have a problem with it. But the idea of an argument being the only thing that will make Sasha to still want to talk to hi
Amanda took slow steps backward, she shook her head and looked from Jake to Sasha to Sebastian, they were all staring back at her with a smirk on their faces. She had hired a man to make sure all the videos were gone but she never did check for herself, she trusted his smooth silky honeycomb voice too much and believed that he would never do such a thing. Either that or she just believed that Jake would never hurt her so deeply."How did you get that video?" She asked with a shaking voice."It doesn't matter how I got it, what matters is if you will be willing to remove Jake from this jail.""Or if you want to go to jail yourself. And do keep in the back of your mind that you tried to kill someone, I may be wrong but I know that they will want to kill you after one year of staying in jail.""No, you don't understand." She said quickly."What don't we understand?" Sebastian asked."Even if I wanted to, I cannot get Jake out of here. Stiles is hell-bent on destroying him. He thinks that
"Hey, Owen. It's me, Sebastian." He spoke into the phone and the rest waited patiently as he continued talking."Yeah, I need your help. Pause. No, it's not illegal. Pause. I just want some information man. Pause. No, not all information are illegal. Pause. Of course, you can trust me on this one. Pause. Okay, look, Owen, stop talking. I'm coming over right now. God! You spend all your time staring at your computer. I know that you are at home." "You need to take Amanda with you!" Jake shouted as Sasha and Sebastian were about to dash out of the room. "Why?" Sebastian stopped in his track and asked. He wasn't sure but he got the feeling that Amanda and Sasha could not co-exist for long and he didn't want such toxic energy in his car. "Because if you guys should leave her alone she may go and do something that will ruin all of our plans. Now take her with you!" He screamed again. Amanda didn't wait to be pushed around, she moved her feet and followed the duo away. She just hoped tha
Relief washed over everyone. Everyone except Amanda. The situation wasn't good for her. Others didn't have what to risk but for her, everything was on the line. She could very easily lose her life in the process. She watched their bright faces with so much hatred in her heart. She wished she could wash away the smiles on their faces or at least make them notice that she wasn't as happy as they were but these people were already on cloud nine. Nothing she did would stop that and she didn't want to do anything. At the end of the day, Jake was her husband and she wanted him to be okay. Deep inside of her, she wanted him to be free but she knew that his freedom meant her doom. Normally she would blame Jake for it, but she wasn't totally surprised when she didn't. The man has been nice to her and as a woman of flesh and blood that she was, she has fallen in love with him. Her heart wished to rejoice but the uncertainty of her problem left her with no other choice than to remind glum."We
Officer Stiles went mute as he weighed the situation he had found himself in. He couldn't easily get out of this one. He knew that, but it would be so easy to get out of it. That is if he didn't already tarnish his name everywhere. Now, no one would believe him, no matter how good his lies were. "How did you get a hold of these documents?" He asked, hoping that they would say they hacked into the federal government files and retrieved them. "People talk Officer. Did you really expect that you will commit so many atrocities and get away with it so easily? It doesn't work that way, mister. You hurt a lot of people and when these people find someone willing to listen to them, they will speak and bring out evidence to back their claims. Now, I believe you were about to make a decision." "Okay." Stiles couldn't believe how badly he had lost. He had him, the one guy that he wanted so badly to get rid of. The one guy that he wanted was dead and not just locked up. He had everything planned
