The Traps of the Black Swan (Book 2)

271

'I told you, we should have killed that jinx in the bud. See, she brought doom even after the death. She would never leave our back until we are completely ruined.'

After blurting out everything, Maisie realized she gave out her real face at the provocation. Her eyes widened when she saw the two in front of them were controlling their anger.

She frantically looked back at the kitchen where the maids were hiding and also waiting for her orders if anything needed to be served. "What the f**k are you guys doing inside? Come out and save us. They are going to beat us."

That's exactly the reason Megan and Jordan were silent. The two maids came out and stood with their heads down.

The assistant instructed the two women to get closer, "Collect your payments."

Maisie and Shane were even more shocked when they saw their maids collect the envelopes and bow to Jordan and Megan. The assistant added more words, "Join the work from tomorrow." They were going to work as a cleaning and kitchen staff in one of M subsidiary company with a higher payment.

Were they thinking Megan was easy? If the daughter of the family can't be the daughter, Megan thought, wouldn't it be good for the Master and Madam of the family to become maids and helpers in their own house?

The assistant had met those maids yesterday.

Even if they want the maids, Megan and Jordan were going to cut off all the sources of income from them. About Hayden helping his son and daughter-in-law, they will see how it goes in the coming days.

The maids left, taking their packed luggage. Similarly, a gardener was also sent.

Jordan stood up holding his cane, "Who are you going to call for help?" He questioned with a sinister smile on his face. If that woman and man could be so audacious in front of them, they couldn't imagine what Jennie had suffered.

Jordan swung the cane and lashed on Shane's arm. Shane cried in agony but didn't have time to recover. Jordan struck again on the other side, each time increasing his strength.

When he hadn't accepted Ruby Jane, he still had beaten the man who hugged Ruby Jane in the hospital. When Ruby Jane was his granddaughter-in-law and knew these pieces of scum had treated her brutally, why would he hold himself back?

The villa was filled with the painful groans of the man. The assistant closed the main door to avoid too much attention.

Meantime, Maisie was scared to death imagining those same strikes on her body, creating the bruise. She was trembling when trying to speak and her gaze landed on Megan. Her breathing was rugged looking at Megan's smile at her. The fear gripped her throat and her hands flew to her mouth as tears rolled out without understanding why things were changing so drastically in her life.

Jordan stopped to catch a breath, after all, he is old. He knew why Shane didn't fight back. Shane assumed Jordan might not attack him after beating him. If he attacked Jordan in defense, his bodyguard's one strike would be enough to make him handicapped for the lifetime.

The main door of the villa opened and a young man walked in. He was in casual wear, lazily walking in like a true young master of the family. There were no worries or tension on his face. It was like he came out for a stroll.

Shane was in pain so he didn't notice, Maisie who saw him run up to him hurried, "Zain, Zain... Help us... They have beaten your uncle, they want to kill us. Zain, please do something." She desperately shook Zain's arm.

Zain shrugged his hand harder that caused Maisie to lose balance and fell on the floor. He wanted to laugh at her face. The woman who was trying to get rid of him from the family tree so that he doesn't inherit anything from the Kim family was acting pitiful and begging him when in trouble.
