La Serpiente, Foxy cursed bride in CEO Ghost’s lair - Chapter 146

“Yes, ma’am. I had already instructed Miss Syna in that regard.”

The sly woman knew how to play with words that would help her out to sneak away from what she had done, Chloe seemed to have been using a greater part of her brain comparatively Adriana, who reacted impulsively on the instructions given by Braille.

Jade ended the call and then faced Sinclair giving him an awkward smile as if she had caught guilty of some deadly sin and now is afraid of Sinclair’s scolding precisely wrath, because his bride was his Achilles heal and his only precious possession.

“What did your secretary say? Where is Syna?”

Sinclair sensed that something was definitely wrong or else Jade would have already told him Syna’s location and her activity.

Jade didn’t know how to form her words, the lady was still fighting a battle within her about what words she should choose, that would prove her innocent too.

“JADE, I’m asking you something, where the hell is Syna?”

Hades aka Brandon kept quiet with his mouth sealed, he knew that it was not appropriate for him to barge in the conversation which seemed to be going out of hands, he had known Jade too that the lady was a sensible woman but the situation was saying something else.

“Actually Sinclair, Chloe said that Syna went to roam around the floor, all by herself.”

Jade Lombardi closed her eyes as soon as she finished her saying and the very next moment she was pinned to the wall.

“What do you mean by that? What the fuck was your secretary doing?”

Sinclair’s eyes turned dark and glowed red as he tightened his grip of the right hand around Jade’s frail neck.

Hades shot up from his seat and immediately approached Sinclair, the poor guy didn’t even get a chance to calculate Sinclair’s attempt, it happened within a nick of time that the Lord plunged forward towards Jade with a great speed, that resembled the pace of light.

“Sinclair, let her go.”

Hades grabbed his hand and tried hard to loosen his firm grip, the poor cousin was wincing in pain, her face was turning purple – blue due to terrible clutching around her neck.

“Sinclair, damn you! Let go of Jade, she is your cousin and apparently it is not her fault.”

Hades started to yell at him, hoping that it might help to bring Sinclair back into senses.

The lord seemed to be possessed by some spirit that his iris turned red and the rest of the white portion changed its color to pitch black, that was how Sinclair MacLaverty was, the Lord of Spirit Realm was actually someone who resembled a demon, in his true form!

“Sinclair stop! This is madness rather you should find Syna, than fighting with Jade, it is unnecessary.”

Brandon dig his nails in Sinclair’s wrist to make him loosen his ‘claws’ around her neck, while Jade was barely keeping herself up and continuously tried to wriggle out of his embrace.

Jade had been struggling to mutter something but Sinclair’s fingers were doing a terrible job to strangle her, but Hades’s words brought him back into senses that his clutch loosened around her and Jade cowered down in terror, in her knees while Hades crouched close to her immediately.

“Are you alright, Jade?”

The man was holding her by shoulders and supported the lady to get up.

“Here, hold on tight.”

Brandon placed his one hand at the end of her backbone while his other was wrapped around Jade’s shoulder, as the lady stood up with wobbly legs and a horror struck expression.

Sinclair’s eyes turned back to heterochromic ones, then to his disguise, he was holding the place of nose between his eyes totally disappointed in himself, perhaps, or it seemed that way.

“Jade I am so…”

Before he could utter anything a hard slap touched his left cheek, Jade’s hand got imprinted on his face in red ink!

“You demon! You want to kill my child!? He is UNBORN, how could you do that to your nephew?”

Tears rolled down her cheeks, she was pregnant and certainly didn’t expect Sinclair to get blinded by rage and love that he would attempt to kill his own cousin and unborn nephew.

“It is alright, Jade. He has turned into a maniac!”

Hades spat with an angry tone as he shouted in his face, it was nightmare for Jade that made her go nearly out of hands, she grabbed the collar of Sinclair’s black shirt and jerked him, her eyes were still questioning with shiny pearls dripping down.

“Why would you do that, Sinclair?”

Hades pulled Jade back gently by her forearm, he did not want her to get hurt in anyway.

“It is of no use Jade, we are done with him. I will drop you home, come.”

The Lord of hell squeezed her forearm and Jade helped her to turn around.

“I don’t want to see you, Sinclair. It is of no use now.”

Before stepping out of the cabin, she placed her hand above the doorknob when her determined yet weary voice fell into Sinclair’s ears, making the fierce Lord numb in the place.

After Jade had left the room with Hades, the lord stumbled a few steps, moving behind a few steps.

‘How could I do this? How could I, she is like my sister!’

His inner self popped up, Sinclair got lost questioning to himself, he had spent his teenage years with Jade, playing and teasing her but now he did something which was beyond acknowledgment.

Sinclair felt himself stepping towards his damnation, he lost his only friend who was more like his sister, the generous and daring person who had always stepped out to help him, was now gone, and it was all his fault, solely his ire.

“I need to find Syna first, then I will personally apologise to Jade.”

Sinclair knew that it was not the right moment to chase after Jade because the lady was emotional due to her second pregnancy and would not understand a thing, or should she forgive him?
