REVENGE GIRL

Jay POV

I must confess that Harley is damn good at what she does, I must commend her hard work.

From what I have gathered so far, I think Collins has already fallen deeply in love with her and this is just to our advantage. Very soon, my biggest problem and obstacle will be out of the picture and I’ll have all the freedom I want in the world. I think this is great, he needs to suffer for the stress he had caused me, so it’s best as he falls in love with Harley, it would hurt him to know that the person he loves is the one that’ll kill him.

The door suddenly burst open and the sound of footsteps drawing closer brought me back to reality, and even without trying to check who it was, I needed no one to tell me that it’ll be Alex. He’s the only one that dares to disturb me. If you must know, Alex is more like a best friend to me, he had been my buddy right from childhood. We run this business together, and I must confess that he had always been there for me. I remember when we just started this shit, he gave me his full support and always made sure that we succeed in all our missions then. Don’t misunderstand me, he still gives me his support until now.

How it all started was ten years ago, when I was just seventeen years old. After the death of dad, mom was diagnosed with heart disease, and we needed money to cure her. Being the only child of my mom, the responsibilities shifted on me. None of our family members were ready to help us, not even for food, because they warned her not to marry dad in the first place.

I spent my whole life in the street, trying to make ends meet. You can imagine the pain of a seventeen years old boy, trying to put food on the table and raise money for his poor mom’s surgery, right? I did everything I could, to raise money. I took some odd jobs, like hawking for people to raise money.

The day I would never forget, was the day I met Justin Brown, a Mexican drug lord. The day that changed my life until now. I could still remember how it all started. I had gone out that day to hustle as usual and I ran into this man. He took me to his house and then gave me food and some money, not after making me promise him that I was going to come back to him. I remember how I returned home happy that day, I was happy to see my mom eating good food after a long time, and I was also able to get her some drugs.

The next few days, I went back to Justin’s house, and he told me he was going to give me a job. I was so happy and was like, ‘at last!’, but then I never knew what was waiting for me.

Justin had taken me to an underground dungeon, where we met a man who was tied down to a chair. I was wondering what we were doing there, and as a naive boy, I was scared, as too many thoughts started parading my mind.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

“Take this, Jayden…, shoot him, and this five million dollar will all be yours,” He had told me, as he handed me a gun and pointed to the parcel, which one of his men was holding. I couldn’t believe my ears, as my whole body trembled in fear, I couldn’t believe that the man asked me to take a life, because of money. As much as I needed the money, I couldn’t bring myself to take a life for it, I believe there was another way. How everything happened was still a dream to me, how I became a killer. I thought all that only happens in movies and novels, but I never imagined that I would ever be caught up in the same situation.

“Remember you can cure your mom with this money, and if you can do this, more are coming your way…, you can finally make your uncles and aunties pay for what they did to you and your mom.” He had whispered to my ear, and like something possessed me, I had pointed the gun at the man with my trembling hands, and before I could stop myself, I pulled the trigger and ended his life… That was how it all started. I felt guilty, but Alex who was also working for Justin then, was always by my side and made sure that I get over it, and here I am today. Don’t ask me to start explaining how I ended up having a team of my own, that’s a long story that’ll probably take me years to explain.

“Jay, I found something important that you need to know, it’s about Richmond,” Alex said as he burst into my study while I just glared at him. I just want to be alone here and read some books, but here he is out to stress me again.

Even if we’re best friends, he respects me as the boss I am in the presence of my other men, but we act friendly when alone. He’s the only one that I do laugh with at times, but very rare though.

“The last time I checked, you know how to knock, right?” I rolled my eyes at him as I watched him sit on the chair across me.

“Oh, please! Save me that. I’m in no mood for that now,” He scoffed and I shook my head unbelievably. The only person that dares talk to me in that manner, is him alone. Of course, no one else would want to try that, knowing that they would be met with their doom.

“Shoot,” I said, playing with the book I was holding.

“There’s a little boy living with Richmond’s mom, and turns out that he’s the young man’s son,” He said, and I was forced to raise my gaze to him as his words rang in my head. That’s not possible, right? Harley would’ve told me about it if it were true, right?

“It is unclear what happened to him in the past, but it seems like there’s more to know about Richmond than he’s letting the world know. He’s hiding something,” He said and paused for seconds.

“Harley got shot and she’s presently in the hospital. I think someone else is after his life,” He said, and I gritted my teeth…
