The Society's Heiress

Chapter 36:The Other Side

Jacob was not even able to park his SUV in front of Jade's apartment as he rushed towards the elevator followed by Felix and James. Inside the elevator, he keeps on cursing at himself. If he could only pull the elevator up so he would get to his wife as soon as possible.

But when they reached their floor to their apartment, he saw Mrs. Jade slumped on the corner of the hallway near their doorstep. Seeing her horrible situation, he felt his heart thump so loud. He doesn't have a good feeling about this.

He runs towards their apartment unit and finds the door is already opened. When he entered, complex emotions surged in. Fear and anger. He saw Beauty near the sofa looking lifeless in her pool of blood. He heard Beast, growling inside the bathroom. He walked towards the bathroom, as soon as he opened it Beast came out growling and barking while running all over the house.

Jacob cannot find his wife.

He turned to Felix with dark clouds covering his face. "Check out the CCTV footage around the area." It was a calm yet cold tone that sent shivers to Felix and James.

Felix who was still standing near the door with James was startled then said, "Yes Boss." He immediately sat down and started working on his laptop.

James looked at Jacob who is now squatting beside Beauty checking for any signs of life.

Then after a moment, "James, call someone from the hospital to take care of Mrs. Jade. Then take Beauty and Beast to the veterinarian."

Felix worked faster than usual before. He seemed to be able to hack the CCTV footage of the apartment and the surrounding area. "Boss," he said then handed the laptop to Jacob for him to watch the footage.

In the video, Jacob saw a 4x4 truck parked in the basement parking. A bulky rugged man and a woman came out of it then walked towards the elevator.

Jacob's brows furrowed. He noticed that the suspect didn't even bother to cover their faces. He already recognized them as the infamous Sano Twins. He knew to whom they work for and the crimes that they had committed before. But since they work for an influential businessman, they managed to escape the law.

The two were now walking in the hallway between J and Mrs. Jade's apartment unit. He saw them knocked first at Mrs. Jade's unit. He noticed the terrified look on Mrs. Jade as the man pointed a gun at her face. Although he can't hear what they were talking about, it was obvious that the twins were threatening her to do something for them.

The old lady walked slowly, then with her trembling hands, she knocked at the door of their apartment. Soon the door opened, the twins entered.

In the next video, he saw the bulky man carrying his wife on his shoulders. Jacob's expression turned grim then he clenched his fist. He had to stop himself from throwing the laptop on the nearest wall in anger.

"Felix let's go," Jacob said as soon as he got up from his seat as if he already knew where to find his wife. Felix instantly followed him.

"James, call Arthur and his team. Tell them to meet us at CEO Wang's mansion. I don't care if they're still in the summit or not. My wife is more important than them."

"Copy that. Do you need additional men?" James asked.

"No need." Then Jacob and Felix were out of sight.

At CEO Wang's mansion, a black pickup truck went inside the mansion's garage. As soon as the garage door was closed Bart and Naomi got out of the truck with J on Bart's shoulder carrying her like a sack of rice.

They get inside the mansion and place the sleeping J in a bed of one of the bedrooms.

"Boss, as you requested. We got the package for you." Naomi said seeing CEO Wang approaching them giving him a smug smile.

CEO Wang laughed out evilly. "Good job! I never doubted your capabilities! I can't wait to tell the other elites of my discovery and possession. They will definitely bid for a large sum of money just to get their hands on the heiress of the Robin Hood!" He was loud and proud.

Several elites were enthusiastic to find the heiress of the Robin Hood and be able to kill her. Surely the Robin Hood Society had caused them a lot of troubles and money and having no one to blame but the heiress. Once they find out that the heiress is in his possession, they would surely fight tooth and nail to get her.

When CEO Wang entered the room, he saw J sleeping with her hands and feet tied and mouth plastered. His eyes sparkled with lust.

"You didn't tell me that the heiress is also a goddess," He said to Bart with a smile while running his tongue to his lower lip. To Bart, his smile might seem so natural to his Boss, but to others, it would seem creepy.

Outside the mansion, there were about a dozen mercenaries that CEO Wang hired from the Twelve Army guarding the place. Their main mission is to protect CEO Wang but not to be involved in his illegal works.

That's why CEO Wang would prefer them to guard outside the mansion to prevent them from witnessing his illegal business.

One of the guards, who is the leader, received a call. After the call he moved to talk to some of the guards, they nodded at each other, and then four of them walked inside the mansion.

"Peter, something's not right. Four guards went inside the mansion which is very unlikely since CEO Wang doesn't allow them inside." A man in black tactical gear camouflaging in the dark spoke through a secret communicating device. He was hiding outside the mansion in one of the trees while in his hands is binocular with a night vision. His eyes focused on the entrance of the mansion.

Peter, who is one of the most skilled members of The Robin Hood Society that is why he earned the position of being its leader's right-hand was positioned not far away. There were about ten men of the Robin Hood Society who had been watching outside CEO Wang's mansion. All in black tactical gear and have been waiting for a chance to attack and avenge one of their brothers in the Society.

"Stay alert. Something must have been going on inside." Peter replied.

"Two cars are approaching." Peter heard another voice. Then he looked towards the direction of the cars. The cars went inside the gate of the mansion.

"Simon, who are they?" Peter asked. Simon was the man who first noticed the strange behavior of CEO Wang's guards. He was discovered by the Elder Do himself and considered a genius when it comes to firearms.

"I don't have a vision yet," Simon replied.

Using the binocular Simon watched the two cars intensely waiting for the doors to open. Finally, the door of the second car opened and three men got out of it. Simon checked out their faces and eventually recognized one of them as Arthur. Arthur was quite known as one of the top men of the Twelve Army. Any elites and even royals would pay a large amount of money just to have him and his team as their security detail.

"Peter, I got a vision of Arthur Brown. And it looks like he came with his team." Then the first car opened its door and two men came out of it and he was surprised to recognize one of them. "I-it's Chairman Jacob Parker. Peter, I have a vision of Chairman Jacob Parker. The Chairman of Twelve Army!"

Peter was surprised. What could the Chairman of the Twelve Army be doing at CEO Wang's territory? It is very unlikely for him to be personally involved with CEO Wang.

Inside the mansion, while CEO Wang is contemplating on how to wake up the heiress, he hears the voice of one of his personal men.

"Boss!"

"You better have a good reason for disturbing my happy hour!" he said angrily at the man.

CEO Wang furrowed his brows and said, "Useless people! I can't even rely on you to solve simple problems!"

Then he walked out of the room followed by Bart and Naomi.

"These people are saying that they are leaving." the man said pointing at four guards who were now standing at the center of the mansion.

"What? Are you out of your mind? I paid for them. I hired them. We have a contract. Why would they leave?" CEO Wang exclaimed angrily and arrogantly at the man.

"CEO Wang. We received an order. We've been pulled out of this job. We are leaving right away." the leader of the guard said with a blank face.

CEO Wang laughed boisterously. "There must be a misunderstanding." Then he saw someone appear at his doorsteps behind the guard.

"Chairman P-parker!" He was startled at first but soon regained his arrogance. "What a pleasant surprise. Just what did I do in the past to have a visit from you personally at this hour."

Jacob clicked his tongue as he looked around the mansion with a dangerous expression. One could already tell that something bad is about to happen in a couple of seconds. "You think highly of yourself CEO Wang," Jacob said with a smirk.

CEO Wang was taken aback.

"Ah... Chairman Parker, I believe there is a misunderstanding. Your people said they were being pulled out." CEO Wang though internally shaken decided to bring up an issue instead of thinking about the dangerous aura coming from Jacob and his men.

His eyes were looking back and forth to Jacob and the four men behind him but not lingering for too long.

"There is no misunderstanding CEO Wang," Jacob said in a cold tone. "I came here to retrieve all my men and a precious gem that you stole from me." He glared with an icy look at CEO Wang that caused beads of cold sweat to form all over his face.

"Search the area," Jacob ordered Arthur's team which they obliged instantly.

"W-wait! W-what are you doing!" CEO Wang was alerted as well as the Sano Twins but they were hesitant to make a move.

"Chairman Parker, we had a contract. I hired your guards and paid for them. You cannot just pull them out. You are violating the contract. I can sue you and make you pay for compensation!" although he was terrified, CEO Wang still managed to speak out arrogantly.

Jacob didn't even make a change in his indignant expression. Then Arthur came to him and whispered something to his ears which made him more infuriated.

"Go ahead. I'll even pay double the compensation. But before that, I will sue you for illegal smuggling of goods, illegal possession of firearms, I heard you are also involved in illegal drugs recently. And just today, you stole my most precious gem. I doubt if my compensation will be enough to bail you out of the prison CEO Wang. That is...if you will be allowed to bail."

Then there was silence. CEO Wang was terror-stricken. What is he talking about? What did I steal that belonged to him? Is he talking about her? CEO Wang thought to himself?

"Did anyone of you touch her?" He heard Jacob asked in a terrifying tone then seeing him reaching a gun from Arthur. "I'll kill those that lay a hand on her," Jacob said that in a low voice but enough for everyone to hear. Then CEO Wang was shocked to hear a gunshot from the gun in Jacob's hand.

Bart fell on the ground with a hole in his forehead without having a chance to pull out his own gun to defend himself. When Jacob saw the man who carried his wife over his shoulder, he immediately knew that he will be the first person who would fall on the ground dead.

Naomi quickly pulled a gun to point it at Jacob but was stopped to hear Jacob speak.

"I dare you," Jacob said while pointing the gun at CEO Wang's forehead.

CEO Wang stopped Naomi with his trembling hands.

"Chairman Parker. I-I beg you. I didn't know what I did wrong. Please spare me." CEO Wang tried to plead for his life. But seeing the look on Jacob's face it was like he was facing the devil.

Even Arthur's Team and the other guards were shocked. They have heard that the Chairman was a sharpshooter but they didn't expect to witness it at that time. And they have never seen the devil side of the Chairman, they didn't even know it existed.

"You dared to lay a hand on my wife," Jacob said calmly but the people inside the mansion felt that his voice may sound calm but beneath it is a promise of hell. And they were right. " I will spare your life but I promise you that I will make sure to make your life into a living hell that you would beg for me to kill you instead." Jacob's voice was cold and low as if it came from underground.

CEO Wang and Naomi were dumbstruck. Did they hear it right? The heiress that they abducted is Chairman Parker's wife? Then panic occurred to them realizing what they have done. They are doomed.

"And you are not to be seen near my wife again. Do you understand?" Jacob said in a threatening voice but CEO Wang was still dumbfounded and his brain was still refusing to function well at this moment.

"Do you understand?" Jacob repeated the question now with a higher tone.

CEO Wang jumped when he heard the booming sound of Jacob and stuttered. "I-I u-understand."

After hearing that Jacob walked towards a room following Arthur. When they reached the room, Jacob saw J lying on the bed asleep with her hands and feet tied and plaster on her mouth. He felt his heartache at the sight. He thought that threatening CEO Wang is not enough.

He wanted to go back and torture the man but held himself knowing that his wife needed him more. Dark clouds covered his face as he thought of a million ways to make CEO Wang's life miserable.

He untied J's hand and feet then gently removed the duct tape on her mouth. The drug that the Sano Twins used to make her fall asleep was so strong that J was never awoken even after the pain from removing the duct tape.

Jacob carried her in his arms and walked out of the room. Before he exits the mansion, he gives Arthur an order.

"Make sure that her identity will not be leaked out. You know what to do with them."

Arthur nodded in understanding. Then they heard another gunshot. Naomi fell on the ground, just like her brother, she died with a hole in her forehead.

In the distance, Peter heard the gunshot.

"Simon, what's the situation there. I already heard two gunshots." Peter asked.

"I don't know but this is either good or bad... Chairman Jacob killed Bart Sano, while Arthur killed Naomi Sano. They're dead. Chairman Jacob walked out of the mansion followed by Arthur's team and the rest of CEO Wang's guard. He is carrying a girl. Looks like he came for the girl." Simon said.

Peter furrowed his brows. Who is that girl?

"Let's go. We don't have business here anymore."
