Innocent Love Of A Deadly Gangster

Chapter 19 - UPCOMING STORM

Jessica saw the car leave as she hid behind the window next to the gate. She had a sweet smile resembling a teen who just saw her crush. She turned around and walked into the elevator when the car left her sight.

On reaching her apartment she took a quick shower and was scrolling through the web when her screen blacked out... The screen showed some characters and soon it returned to normal. Jessica's face turned dark and she exited the web to open her messaging app. She went to the contact named 'FRIEND' and send a message with two simple words. 'NO'.

She got up from the sofa and headed to the kitchen to get herself a glass of cold milk when her phone vibrated showing a new notification. She looked at the lit-up screen and her face started brimming with happiness. It was a cute emoji message from Steve. It read 'Goodnight, dear...' with two heart emoji. She smiled to herself before replying.

Steve sat in his balcony with a cup of cold milk on the coffee table next to him. He took a sip from his cup when his phone lit-up. He quickly picked up the phone. On reading the message he coughed vigorously as the milk he just sipped went into his windpipe.

The message read 'Goodnight, sweetheart...' Followed by two hearts emoji. His face was instantly lit-up as he stared at his phone screen. He hugged his phone as if it was his life and danced in the room in his bathrobe.

*Thud*

The man dancing immediately stopped and looked at the direction of the sound. Mrs. Smith stood at the door with her eyes popping out as she saw her son dance with the wind. She seriously thought her son had gone mad. She was going to call the family doctor to check him. In her horror she dropped the fruit tray she was holding grabbing her son's attention.

Steve's face showed shock as he stared at his mother. he didn't know what to say. He straightens up and walked towards her mother. Taking her by her shoulders he let her in and closes the door. His mother sits down on the bed judging that Steve had something to say. "Mom... Don't take anything wrong. It's just that I got over excited..." His mother hummed and asked the reason for this happiness. Steve blushed and gave his phone to the lady lord. He bowed his head in embarrassment.

"Pfttt..... Haha..... So it is Jessica. she addressed you as 'sweetheart'.That's good progress..." His mother said as she looked at her embarrassed son. She smiled and decided to give him some privacy so she could soon hear the wedding bells.

The Han Mansion,

A black car entered through the gates as Father Han stepped out from it. Fatigue was clearly visible on his face. He had been working overtime to stabilize the condition of the company but all to vain. Mrs. Han was waiting for him and took his coat and bag from him placing them on the table. "You look tired. Is everything fine?" She asked with worry clear in her voice.

*Sigh* "Nothing is fine. The company shares are decreasing day-by-day. The decrease is minimum but if this continues the company will go bankrupt for sure." Father Han said as he sat on the sofa. "Why don't you ask Mr. Smith for help? After all, he is the soon-to-be son-in-law." Mrs. Han asked as she gave a glass of water to her husband.

"Huh?! I went to Jessica today. She needs to be told a lesson for her attitude she thinks that she is now the queen with Mr. Smith's support. Like mather, like daughter." Father Han said as he remembered the macking look of Jessica earlier that day. If not for Mr. Smith he would have long killed Jessica. He had attempted this many times when she was abroad but failed. He suspected that someone was protecting her from the dark. Even if Steve wants to harm Jessica he would not be able to even touch her.

During the time Jessica was abroad no one knew that her so-called father had done endless attempts to kill her, hiring the best of killers. But they all failed and ended up getting harmed instead. On these events, he was sure that there was something that would not let them harm Jessica and if they still tried they were doomed. He had even received multiple threats saying that his end was near.

He was somewhat feeling that this all mess was done by Jessica. But he instantly dropped the idea as he thought Jessica to be a fragile girl with the most fragile heart. He was sure he would be able to melt her heart.

However, this was not true and Father Han was not aware of the upcoming storm that was slowing going to make him lose everything, even his most treasured thing....
