Billionaire’s Ex-Wife And His Hidden Babies

Bruce’s POV

.

“But… but that’s impossible,” Austin said, not believing the part that I just said. “Lucas was with them, right?”

“And he is the one who did it as per CCTV footage,” I said, still having a hard time absorbing everything.

“That’s… that’s impossible.” Joshua opened his mouth. “Everyone knows that…

“Not everyone, Joshua. Not Brandon. He knew all of us from just last seven years, and right now, I can’t imagine what could be going on in his mind.” I cleared his point. How could Lucas do this?

Or did someone else make him do this?

As far as I knew, he didn’t have any weakness, so there was no chance that he could have done this under someone’s order.

“That… that is still a question for now.”, I muttered. “Get back to the packhouse, QUICK,” I ordered, and my eyes landed on Iris, who looked quite happy with this news. She had no idea what was waiting for her. “And you will come with me,” I said and grabbed Brandon’s car keys from Joshua.

I sat in the driver’s seat while Iris sat beside me.

“Beta Bruce, what if Boss’s mood will be something unexpected?” Xander asked in tension.

“Then, just RUN, and you fail, then use Sophia’s name to save yourself from his temper,” I suggested, not knowing what about his unpredictable mood. The last time when Abby went missing, he was ready to kill all the hunters, but Uncle Logan suggested concentrating on his career and planning everything wisely. This time, neither he had to focus on his career nor plan anything. He knew everything about us, and he wouldn’t waste a second killing us if he would be thinking that we were behind everything.

I drove the car toward the packhouse.

Brandon told all of us how Iris had kidnapped Martha’s grandson and was blackmailing her into poisoning his Dad’s food. Hell, she was the reason behind the regular sickness, of uncle Logan. But thankfully, the PI that Brandon had appointed to find out about Martha’s grandson without anyone’s knowledge, and thankfully he finally located the place where that boy was when we were discussing how he had planned just to kidnap Oliver to buy some time and divert Iris’s mind. The plan was simple and straight that when swapping his place with Joshua when our SUV passed the red light while his car was stuck for a while because of the red light. And then he would return to Sophia, asking her not to leave with Caroline.

I didn’t know how he was going to make up the rest of the things with her, but for the first time, he expressed on his own that he couldn’t live without them because by reaching this point that he realized that he just coldn’t go back to his earlier life even if he wanted to.

I recalled his words clearly, ‘When… when Sophia didn’t even let me touch Caroline even when she wanted to come to me. I felt like someone was taking my heart out of my body. She kept bouncing in her arms, calling ‘dada’ and forwarding her hands toward me, but I couldn’t take her in my arms and kissed her. I guess not everything is about revenge. Hell, I couldn’t rest peacefully even after killing Ethan. I thought that after killing him, I would feel better, but I couldn’t.’

‘For a second, I can’t help but wonder, why am I doing this? And what will I get after killing everyone? Of course, not peace for sure. After killing everyone, I may return back to normal life, but then what? When I will enter my room, my wife won’t be waiting for me to share all the things that she did throughout the day, and my daughter won’t be waiting for me to play with me.’

I was brought out of my thoughts when I heard Iris speaking, “Is that Sophia?”

I looking looked in the direction she was pointing and saw Sophia standing on the edge of the bridge.

“What the fuck, is she doing there?” I asked no one but me and quickly applied the break of the car and unbuckled the seatbelt to hop out of the car. She was crying, and she obviously didn’t look in the right state of her mind.

“Sophiiiaa,” I called her name. I didn’t know if she heard me or not, but the next moment, she jumped from the bridge. “Sophiaaa” I shouted. I ran toward the place from where she jumped and didn’t see any sign of her. The flow of the river was way too much, and also the water level in the river higher than usual because of the rainy season.

I climbed on edge to jump from there when Iris grabbed my hand.

“Have you lost it? Even if you’re a great swimmer. I doubt you can survive the flow of this river in the rainy season. Because of heavy rainfall, the government has opened the dam built on the other side of the river. And don’t forget that you’re not a werewolf now.”, She reminded.

And immediately, my conversation with Sophia flashed in my mind when she was planning to do something like this before.

‘Need help?’

‘No. Thank you.’

‘Even if you’re a great swimmer. I doubt you can survive the flow of this river in the rainy season.’

‘So, I guess your plan of killing yourself is not going to flop.’

‘But I didn’t want to die.’

‘Did you say something?’

‘No’

‘You know, sometimes, talking to strangers is much easier because they don’t really judge you. Or even if they do, we don’t really care about it. So, in short, you can talk to me. I’m a good listener, you know.’

‘My boyfriend disappeared after knowing that I’m pregnant with this child. Now, I don’t know what to do next. I mean, I know what I want to do but whatever I’m thinking is next to impossible.
