My Evil Husband by Sweet Mia novel Chapter 85

Third Person POV

A shiver ran down Jack's spine when he saw Leo and Geo. That was the name his father had given them.

They are sleeping right now but their terror didn't fade or made him less scared.

His kids were sleeping too. They were looking tired and their face was covered with dirt and stains.

"Jack, did you miss your pets?" Arnold asked him with a cheered voice.

Jack was silent for a minute. His heart was beating so fast that he could hear it clearly.

The pain in his heart was increasing along with his heartbeats. He turned his gaze to his enthusiastic father.

"Leave them. How could you do that? You have issues with me. Right? Then why are doing this with them." Jack asked his father

Arnold scoffed and said "You are right. You are my biggest problem. I never wanted to give you this business. This belonged to my grandfather and then me." 

He took some steps toward him and gave him a push and continued "But he made me sign a contract that I had to give all these to my son when he would complete his 21st birthday."

He again pushed him and seethed "I hate you along with your mother. I hate your stepmother too."

"That's why you killed her too," Jack stated.

Arnold looked shocked for a moment then smirked and said "So you got to know huh. That bitch Maria had told you right."

"Who is Maxim? And where did you meet his mother?" Jack asked further

"She was a virgin little girl who wanted money and we made a deal. I fucked her and left her in her country." Arnold chuckled

"You fooled him too. Just like you did with Alan." Jack asserted

" I did," Arnold stated proudly

"How many siblings do I have, father??" Jack enquired him

His father was in deep thinking for some minutes then said "I really don't know. I have fucked all around the world. So maybe you would find my kids everywhere."

"Now get ready to watch your children get killed in front of you and then your wife." His father said and gestured something to that person.

The person nodded and walked inside the small cage and threw a glass of water on the kids.

"You bastard leave my kids," Anna shouted, not caring about her movements.

Both kids stirred and opened their eyes. Matthew's head was on Mia's lap and he opened his mouth to sneeze.

They both sat and looked at their surroundings and Mia's gaze went to father.

"Matt look Pa," Mia said and ran toward the end of the cage.

"Pa." She shouted.

Jack was about to run toward his kids when he felt a bullet piercing in his back.

He fell down on his knees and winced in agony. His whole body was screaming in pain.

He heard shouts from his family and gathered all his strength to get up but again someone shot him.

He fell down on the floor and again blood started to flow from his nose.

He wanted to get up and save his family but he just didn't have any power left in his body.

"Wake them up," Arnold said.

After a few minutes, two roars echoed all over the house. The kids froze at their place after watching the lions.

They screamed loudly and pressed themselves to the end of the cage.

That was not the first time when Anna was feeling helpless. She had endured that all.

But now she couldn't as it was not her. It was her kids who needed her but she couldn't do anything.

The bomb doesn't scare her. If her children were not in this building, she would have sacrificed her life.

"Pa, Ma." She heard her kids crying and she couldn't do anything except crying.

Maxim came inside the room and looked at the scene in front of him in shock.

This was not in their plan. They are supposed to leave the kids with their mother after killing Jack.

The cage and the lions were supposed to kill Jack, not the kids or their mother.

Hurting kids were not okay with him. His own child was on his way.

Anna looked at Maxim and begged "Please leave my kids. You can kill me or beat me but don't do anything to them please."

Maxim didn't say anything and went toward Jack who was half unconscious.

"You wanted to be the leader right. Take that. But free my family from here." Jack mumbled with his eyes closed.

"Dad leave them. I have got what I wanted. Hurting kids was never in our plan." Maxim spoke

Arnold rolled his eyes and said "oops I forget it. But now I can't stop them."

There was a chain attached to the small cage's door and further, it was connected to the bucket which was hanging above.

The bucket was getting filled with the water and was slowly sinking which led to the opening of the door of the cage.

The lions were hungry as Arnold didn't let anyone feed them for more than 3 days.

They are getting impatient with this wait and roared angrily, making kids scream.

One of the lions scratched the cage with his paw and bared his teeth in front of them.

"Pa. Save Mia." Mia sobbed looking at her father whose eyes were closed.

Arnold took some steps toward the cage and clapped his hand and said "Say bye to grandpa and your father kids."
