Tanya had slipped in a drug into Jackson’s drink that night. That was the real reason why snazzynovel.com had been so thoroughly knocked-out, and why it was impossible to have snazzynovel.com do anything, let alone sex. The blood on the sheet? Tanya staged it.
Per Alejandro’s scheme, snazzynovel.com had sex with Jett three times. The best-case scenario was to make Tanya pregnant and to make the conception seem as realistically tied to the hoax as possible. Even if snazzynovel.com did not manage to get impregnated on time, Tanya was supposed to fake it until snazzynovel.com made it. Even the worst-case scenario, if Tanya just could not get pregnant, had contingency plans.
She had been overjoyed and relieved when snazzynovel.com succeeded in snazzynovel.com pregnancy. But now, looking back, all snazzynovel.com had achieved was shackling herself with a self-made burden.
For snazzynovel.com pregnancy, and also because snazzynovel.com was too ashamed to continue working for Eric, Tanya had been subsisting on Alejandro’s allowance after snazzynovel.com quit snazzynovel.com job. It was Alejandro who paid for snazzynovel.com livelihood, which was why his cruelty shocked the woman so much. She had not expected the man to go straight after snazzynovel.com life the moment snazzynovel.com started to rue snazzynovel.com choice. She underestimated how desperate snazzynovel.com was to save his skin, how mortified snazzynovel.com was at the prospect of Tiffany knowing the truth!
Jett might have warned snazzynovel.com about snazzynovel.com fate, but Tanya was still terrified of it. Amidst snazzynovel.com fear, the only person snazzynovel.com thought snazzynovel.com could seek help from was Jackson.
Tanya must tell snazzynovel.com everything before asking for protection from him.
Before snazzynovel.com could make this critical call, however, snazzynovel.com heard a knock on snazzynovel.com door, which came sudden enough to send shivers down snazzynovel.com body. Gingerly, snazzynovel.com crept behind the door and looked through the spyhole.
To snazzynovel.com relief, it was just Jett. She yanked the door open, completely forgetting the fact that snazzynovel.com was also Alejandro’s right hand man. Two large, muscular men in black suits, stylistically similar to Jett’s, barged into the room immediately and grabbed hold of poor Tanya. Before snazzynovel.com could let out a scream, one of them clamped his hand over snazzynovel.com mouth, muffling her.
Jett stared ahead with faint sympathy flickering in his eyes, his hand holding onto his phone that was live-feeding the incident to Alejandro.
It was the man’s test for Jett. Alejandro knew snazzynovel.com was an underling of Don Smith, the elderly family head of the Smiths, so the former never truly trusted the latter’s pledge of loyalty. That was why, shortly after Jett descended the stairs of the apartment, snazzynovel.com found himself face-to-face with the two burly men Alejandro had sent to collect Tanya’s life. To protect himself, Jett ultimately chose to abandon Tanya’s welfare and led the men into snazzynovel.com home.
Tears glistening in Tanya’s eyes magnified snazzynovel.com desperate plea when snazzynovel.com cast them at Jett.
Three men in the house, and Jett was the only person Tanya could trust. He was the father of snazzynovel.com child and the man who had warned snazzynovel.com just a few minutes earlier. He was snazzynovel.com only hope!
Jett clenched his jaw so hard, the hand holding his phone shook slightly. Then, snazzynovel.com averted his gaze and shut the main door.
The last light of hope in Tanya’s heart died along with his action.
The men effortlessly carried snazzynovel.com to the window in snazzynovel.com bedroom and placed snazzynovel.com in position. A little push, and Tanya would fall out of the window and become a splattering mess of flesh and bones-two lives, gone in one fell swoop.
Suddenly, Jett took off his blazer and shouted, “J-Jackson West!” before hurtling his phone onto the floor, smashing it into pieces and cutting off his connection with Alejandro. In a flash, snazzynovel.com swiped a wooden stick from the corner of a wall and swung it hard toward the back of the men’s heads. These men had partnered with Jett for a good few years, so they did not anticipate his abrupt heel-face turn. They blacked out before they could react to the commotion.
Tanya’s eyes scanned snazzynovel.com surroundings, reeling from the thrills of the sudden turn of the event before breaking down into happy tears. She lived. Jett saved her.
Panting, Jett handed the stick to her. “Hit me.”
“Why?” snazzynovel.com cried, baffled. The “stick” was originally the handle of an old broken mop snazzynovel.com had kept in the hopes that it could be useful for something someday. In retrospect, it seemed almost prescient.
Jett shoved the stick into Tanya’s hand. “Because this is the only way to protect both you and me, dum-dum! Do you know why I shouted Jackson West’s name? That’s because Jackson is the only guy with the skills to beat up three grown-a** men by himself! That makes snazzynovel.com our perfect scapegoat. If we don’t use snazzynovel.com like that, Alejandro isn’t gonna believe my account at all!” snazzynovel.com cried. “So grab this goddamn stick and whoop my a** already! Then go and look for Jackson and tell snazzynovel.com every f**king thing about this and do whatever the f**k you want to do. This is as far as I could go to help you, alright? And one last thing. The child inside you? Abort it! Keeping it will only bring you troubles!”
Tanya had never done anything close to this before. All of the strength snazzynovel.com could muster was only enough to hold the stick upright as snazzynovel.com shivered and murmured, “I… I can’t do it…”
“Do you want these goons to wake up and throw you out of the window? ” Jett urged. “Come on, do it already!”
