Torn Hearts

25. "Mom..."

"You're right. It was a shame." Jayden said, his face showing no sign of any emptions.

Apparently, dude is sitting on a chair, as table place right in front of him. Him in his formal attire, a suit of black color. It was press conference. The reporters bombarding questions on Jayden, and just now, he replied to a question about the blast that occurred in Adley's warehouse three months ago.

"But, you see, some things are bound to happen," Jayden started to speak. "There are some deeds of ours we need to pay for. He did the same. Not that much of a big deal. There are many more deeds he needs to pay for."

"Well, then." As he said that, he stood up.

"What do you mean by that sir?"
"Is there some serious grapple going on between you two?"
"Do you possibly know who did this?"

And many more questions arrised, in answer to what, he passed them a big smile.

Everyone there stopped asking questions, taken aback by the sudden smile, which they saw for the first time in the career of them as well as Jayden's.

"What's up with him?" Felix asked in amazement, as he looked at the news.

"A new game of the Father and Son. What else?" Fallon- who got discharged four days ago- scoffed while sitting on the couch.

"Yeah but, the warehouse thing is way too serious. It can't be done by themselves." Felix pointed out his suspicion.

"To be honest, I have a doubt here as well. But if looked more wisely, they could've moved the important stuff some other place before doing that." Fallon shrugged.

"That's a point as well." Felix bit on an apple.

"You didn't do good by saying all that, bastard." Adley growled at Jayden, who smirked through the phone call.

"I didn't do anything good to you in the past three months, father." He stated. "I'm glad it still amazes you."

"You have a big storm your way, shithead. Enjoy." Jayden felt Adley smirking as he warned him.

"I'll be honored." Jayden replied.

Another two months passed by, and by now, Adley's business had started to crumble bit by bit.

At first, Jayden revealed his affairs with some women. One today, other one tomorrow, a different one yesterday. Of course it caused him a pretty bad reputation.

"The information couldn't he handled to just anyone. Neither could anyone barge into Adley's secret place." Felix looked at the news blankly.

"It really doesn't seem to be going in a good direction. My gut feeling tells me it's not good, for anyone." Fallon expressed.

"Don't worry much. We ain't that unsafe." Felix comforted.

"YOU PIECE OF TRASH DON'T FORGET IT'LL BRING YOU DOWN AS WELL!" Adley shouted at Jayden, who sipped his coffee, not bothered by anything, as he sat in his navy blue suit darkening his aura.

"Well. I never wanted your business, seems like you forgot." Jayden put his cup back on the table, as he looked up at the end and passed him an innocent, small smile.

"I have so much against you. You could be arrested for that, you know that right?" Adley smirked.

"Not when they know who actually was behind it." Jayden replied, standing up and closing his coat's button. "Well, then."
