The Traps of the Black Swan (Book 2)

289

At Mocon,

Mino wasn't least bit annoyed by extra work. He always wanted to break the face of Shane and torture Maisie. He played with his mobile thinking when it would be the right time to strike Maisie and Shane to carry out Ruby Jane's plan.

He checked the time, there was only an hour left for the end of the working day. The complete investigation would take a long time and the next day too. So showing up now wouldn't really give the perfect effect, he wanted Shane and Maisie to suffer first. So he changed his mind and focused on his loaded work.

----

At Kim Villa,

When Shane and Maisie were freed from the room, shortly the department raided the villa. They didn't get to eat anything and there were no maids to order them. Hence they had only water and juice to drink while being jelly, the officers might find the money they were keeping in bank lockers and home.

Jose, Shane, and Maisie's mobiles were confiscated. Shane and Maisie had no choice and repeatedly lied to the officers as Hayden, their father gave them money, jewelry, or anything they had expensive.

They intended to bring Hayden and the latter to help them out of this predicament.

The officers were tried of checking the unknown source of money hence they sent a request for the presence of Hayden. The latter purposefully delayed and completed all his work before reaching the Kim villa in the evening.

Shane was first to reach Hayden as soon as the door opened, "Dad, help us out of this. It's the matter of Jose's future, we can't let it stain." After all, the old people treasure their bloodline so he picked Jose's name.

Hayden shrugged his hand, getting rid of Shane's clutch. He dusted his blazer sleeves and walked past Shane with his secretary behind him.

Maisie clenched her teeth to bury her annoyance and blamed first, "Dad, this is all happening because of Manoban family, they are bullying us..." She took a deep breath and continued to act frail to beg, "Dad, you are only our hope. The Kim family name will be ruined with this. "

Jordan paused at her words. "Ruined!?" He uttered coldly as he turned to Maisie. The wrinkles on his face looked more daunting when he looked down at Maisie, "Why didn't you think of a family name when you were cheating the money?"

Maisie grounded her teeth lowering her head. Every time she or Shane did something, they made sure it wouldn't become a big deal because Hayden would never help them, especially after they lost Jennie.

"This won't happen again. Give us a last chance." She sounded like she will burst into tears anytime.

'A last chance' seemed to fuel the anger of Hayden. Maise nervously gulped when she lifted her head and caught his glowering eyes.

"Last Chance?" He said through his teeth, "If I hadn't given you so many chances, you and your husband would have been counting the bars in the dark cell." He had lost count of how many times he wanted to file a complaint against those two for landing Jennie in hospital for abusing the child.

Just with the hope that they will change and treat Jennie better, was keeping them in the social circle they wanted.

Three years, he had waited for her granddaughter to return to handle the scumbags herself. Seems like the Manoban family was doing it for her. "I am glad that the Manoban family is helping me get rid of you two." Hayden coldly smirked.

Maisie was incensed hearing Hayden's words. She screeched loudly grabbing his blazer, "We are your family, how could you do..."

'Pak.' Hayden slapped her across the cheek.
