Chapter 273: GOALS
Adrain’s eyes widened in shock after hearing what Viper had to say. "But they wouldn’t do that, right? They wouldn’t take my son to the orphanage right?" He asked Viper as if the man was aware of the Walters brother’s plan.
Viper shrugged and he released another puff of smoke from his mouth before he replied, "I have no idea about what they are planning to do but I guess that they might go with that plan. No one there is related to your son and since it’s your son, they definitely wouldn’t want to be associated with bad blood so I guess that they would send him to the orphanage."
Adrain’s mouth only opened widely as he found it hard to believe that his very own son would be taken to an orphanage while he was still alive.
"They can’t do that!" He yelled out his frustration. "They have to give my son back if they can’t take care of him. I’m still alive and I will not let my son be taken away from me like that."
"Are you sure you are hearing what you are saying?" Viper questioned him with a raised eyebrow. "You want your son back?" He purposely asked him while Adrain nodded his head with force, nearly breaking his bone. "In that case, go ahead. Go and look for your son and when you find him, take him with you but if you end up getting caught again, don’t think that I will risk the lives of my men again just so that o can clean up your mess again," he added tauntfully, reminding Adrain of all the men that had died at the hideout earlier that day.
"If you think that you can walk into there and take back your son by yourself, then go ahead, the door is wide open for you," Viper said, whilst pointing at the door.
Adrain immediately calmed down when he understood the hidden message behind the viper’s words. He couldn’t just barge into those people’s houses and take his son back. It was a life and death situation and he was sure, without a doubt that if Ethan saw him again, he wouldn’t live the next day to tell the tale.
He glared at his hand that had been stabbed by Erika and the legs that had been kicked by Ethan.
’Those two have grown strong together but I will still be able to separate them. Even if it’s the last thing I do on earth,’ he thought to himself. ’Even though Ethan had been in the hospital for three whole weeks, he was still able to beat me black and blue,’ he added through gritted teeth, silently wishing that Ethan would just die wherever he was.
"Since they are still looking for me, now wouldn’t be the right time to try to get my son back from them but I will be keeping an eye on them from time to time, waiting for when they would send him to the orphanage and then, I will get him back," he explained.
Viper stared at Adrian for a few seconds and could only sigh afterward.
’Adrian doesn’t bat an eyelash before the thought of kidnapping someone comes to his head. First, it was Erika, and now his very own son. He seems to be obsessed with kidnapping people,’ Viper concluded.
"I don’t have any business with anything that you’ve planned to do but let me tell you this, if you get into any kind of trouble before you get Erika back again, you are alone." Viper has already repeated it sometimes and had intended to make sure it sinker properly into Adrian’s head so that he can think twice before he gets into trouble and expects him to help him out.
Even though he wasn’t sure that Adrian would listen to him, it was still better to be sure that they were on the same level of understanding.
Adrian nodded his head in response and said, "Don’t worry boss, I will be careful this time and I will make sure I don’t make the same mistake again." His voice was filled with so much determination that Viper wondered if Adrian meant his words.
Either way, viper didn’t care about that. Since he had a new goal now, he would only use Adrian and discard him once his goals had been achieved.
—
In a very large room with a king-sized bed in the center, Monica was resting on the bed, sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt wet lips on her cheeks.
Instantly, she fluttered her eyes open only to find Felix looking at her so dearly with a smile.
"Good morning," he greeted her and she smiled back at him and responded,
"Good morning."
Later, she yawned with her hands over her mouth.
"What’s the time?" She asked next, whilst stretching her limbs while she moaned in pleasure. Afterward, she reached for her phone that was lying on the bedside table and picked it up to check the time.
As soon as her eyes landed on the four-digit numbers on her phone screen, she immediately sprang out of bed, nearly hitting Felix on the forehead if the latter hadn’t moved out of the way as fast as possible.
"What’s wrong?" He asked her, completely shocked by her sudden reaction after seeing the time. He also stood up from the bed and stared at an eye with a raised eyebrow.
Monica quickly halted her steps and turned around to answer him.
"Erika just got back yesterday so I need to go to the hospital to see her since someone I’m currently looking at didn’t let me see her yesterday," she glared at him while she spoke. Without waiting for his reply, she turned around and headed towards the bathroom to get herself ready for the day, leaving Felix completely baffled by her reply.
"I didn’t let her go because it was already late last night," he defended himself even though Monica wasn’t there to listen to him.
