Chapter 86 - Runaway Criminal

Javier's eyes narrowed when he heard the man's words. "Tell me more about it. I wish to know about what Lucas has to do with Jennifer."

The impatientness and eagerness were quite clear in his eyes and voice. His heart was thumping too loudly to hear the secret.

"I can't investigate much about the entire thing deeply but it is informed that Mr. Lucas was probably giving something to the entire Taylor family in return for the marriage with Ms. Jennifer."

It was all expected. How can a family-like Taylors accept Lucas as his son-in-law until and unless he is willing to offer something valuable to them?

Moreover, it wasn't any lie to hide that her family was greedy for more money, counting their daughter's happiness at last. Somewhat Javier already assumed something similar to this, when the news surfaced about her marriage.

"So it means the family was… interested to have something. But did the Taylors got Lucas or was it the other way around. Taylors wanted to wed their daughter or...Lucas?" He asked with utmost seriousness because it has the power to decide the entire situation.

If the Taylors went for the marriage, probably Lucas has nothing to do with her and only married for her beauty but if the other way around… Surely something is suspicious because he was aware of how versatile playboy Lucas is.

"Well... Sir.." the employee opened the data file and check out, "The Smith family proposed the idea of marriage thing and asked for Ms. Taylor's hand in the marriage with their grandson, the current heir Lucas."

BANG!

Javier thrummed the desk with his fist when his expectations matched the result. It was the only way to find out and in his eyes, Lucas wasn't typically interested in marrying Jennifer merely because of her beauty and brains.

Might be, because she does possess them. But at the same time, holding Lucas in marriage was an impossible task, with someone inexperienced like Jennifer.

She can't offer him anything and Lucas isn't someone to give up on his freedom merely because of a marriage, under his elder's pressure.

"So… that means… Lucas was interested to marry her because of something..?"Javier once again asked to which he received a position answer.

"Most likely yes. We are still unsure about what advantages are there to marry Jennifer but it is for sure that the alliance isn't a mere alliance. It will not only give the Lucas the main advance but also to the entire Smith family."

Javier stepped back, in deep thoughts. "Alright. Good going. Keep the same track and find more.." With these words, Javier made his way to the cabin and sat there with furrowed brows.

A thick deep line was formed on his forehead when he analyzed the entire situation in his mind to simply find it more confusing. It sounded as if Jennifer holds some special powers, but what?

What can a mere girl like her, especially someone from a normal background have in her except beauty and brains?

'Taylor family doesn't have anything to offer... except Jenner. This means Jennifer is something.. there is something in Jennifer herself which will make Lucas marry her.. but what?!'

…..

At the same time, Jennifer was quite shocked to see the rudeness and the bluntness in Amaira's words. She braided her hair into a fishtail today, most probably coming back from University.

"Um… I guess you are quite mistaken." Jennifer's face was swollen due to the tension. The young lady was passing her deep glances. If looks can kill, she must have probably died until now.

"Mistaken? You arrived in the state with my brother. My brother's people are here with you all the time, making you explore different things yet you are saying that I'm mistaken?" A sarcastic look formed on Amaira's face which made Jennifer wonder what has she done wrong?

Does she think she is here in this state as per her own wish? If it was in her faith and hands, she would fly far away.

Ellen stepped ahead when he noted Ms. Taylor in a daze, "Ignore the words."

With this, Ellen shifted his attention towards Amaira, "Ms. Johnson, have some respect. She is your elder and not someone you should mess with."

Amaira lifted her gaze to look at Ellen with amazing eyes. "So, now you're now taking her side? Okay, tell me. Who is she?" She asked with no remorse and finally, Jennifer understood that she needs to handle the entire situation with calm and composure.

Otherwise, things might slander.

She stood on her toes and tried to hold Amaira's shoulders but she stepped back. "Do not touch me!"

"Okay okay. Do not worry, I won't." Jennifer calmed her down a little and took a few steps back.

She tugged her hand into her pocket and said in a simple speech, "Girl, you are too much absorbed in your theory, and I understand it, but you need to understand that I have no such intention to steal your brother from your family or so."

"If that is what you wish for then why is my brother not staying with us in our villa rather than with you in his apartment?" Amaira's eyes slightly narrowed when she asked the question.

Jennifer averted her eyes in Ellen's direction who nodded his head to give her a signal to say in her defense, "Because if I live with your family, probably your family will. banish me or simply send me to the bars where I will be tortured immensely."

Amaira's eyes widened when she looked at Jennifer after hearing her words... "Bars? And tortured?"

"Yes. Your family will not only do that but might also kill me." Jennifer nodded her head, showing the genuine reason for her stay alone.

But this doesn't make Amaira more worried, instead, she took a step back in worry. Dreadness spread on her face with a little paleness.

"Don't… tell.. m..me that you are a criminal who ran from the hands of the police?"
