Chasing After My Wife Chapter 222
Advertisement
Jillyanna hailed a taxi and gave the address to the driver who sent her to a suburb place where few people were wandering outside their house.
Jillyanna saw Jackie leaning on a lamp post, her hair was a fiery red that gave contrast to her pale skin. Her white skirt flowing freely as the night wind blew it. She looked ethereal like an angel but she's a devil in disguise.
"Beautiful as ever." Jillyanna commented. "I am glad that you are here, Jackie."
The woman was stunned for a while but she still snapped out of it and looked at Jillyanna. "How did you know it's me Jackie and not Rylie?"
"It is my secret." Jillyanna smiled at the young girl. "Anyway, I owe you this one."
The girl named Jackie rolled her eyes. It was a habit that she got from Jillyanna when they were together in States. "Mistress, you should know better we owe you a lot. We owe you our life. Doing this is just a small thing."
Jillyanna reached out her hand and ruffled the girl's hair. "I promised that I'll let you guys have a normal life but in the end, I still involve you in my matter."
Jackie sighed and led Jillyanna to a dark alley. They walked for a few minutes and reached an outdated building far from the other houses. Jillyanna looked around to make sure that no ones around.
"He's inside. Don't worry about anyone stumbling this place. I'll be guarding here outside." Jackie found a small broken chair and sat on it, keeping her balance using her feet.
Jillyanna threw her a glance before going inside the building which was dark and messy. The only light she had was from the moon light that got in through the windows and holes of the building.

At the end of the corridor was a spacious room with a single chair in the middle. A blind folded man was sitting on the chair with his hands tied at the back of the chair he was sitting. His mouth was gagged with a white towel to keep himself from shouting.
"Mistress! I miss you so much! I never thought we'd be reunited again!" the young lady jumped to her side and hugged her tightly. "I've always wanted to follow you but he won't allow me."
Jillyanna put on a mask over her mouth to muffle her voice. She ruffled the girl's hair like how she did to Jackie. "You've grown. I am glad you stayed with him."
The girl smiled cheerfully at her before handing out a set of tools. There were knives, pliers and other things wrapped on a cloth that she gave to Jillyanna. "I knew you'd come here empty-handed so I prepared this for you." she stated before hiding herself into the dark shadows.
Jillyanna received it and walked closer to the man. She displayed the tools on the floor in front of him and took the blind fold off from his head. She also removed the cloth from his mouth so he can talk.
"Who the hell are you!" Mr. Guevarra shouted and thrashed on his seat but he can't get out from the shackle of the rope that was tied around him and on his hands. "I didn't do anything so let me go!"
"You didn't? Are you sure? You are not guilty of anything?" Jillyanna asked in a muffled voice but was still clear enough for him to make out her words.
Mr. Guevarra was silent when she asked these question. Jillyanna didn't care though and picked up the knife on the floor. Horror and panic in his eyes didn't stop Jillyanna from doing what she intended to do. She slit his jeans and cut through his skin in one swift motion.

"Motherfuxker! You b*tch!" he cursed Jillyanna right in front of her. She didn't flinch from his curses instead, she slit another wound on his thighs. He groaned from pain and his face was red from frustration and anger.
"You didn't do anything? Nothing to be guilty about?" Jillyanna asked him again. "If you will confess now, I will stop what I am doing."
His lips trembled from pain and fear. He didn't know who's kidnapping him and he couldn't tell from the voice either. Jillyanna removed the gag from him so he can speak. "I..I didn't..Ahh!" he screamed when Jillyanna punch his wounds.
"Deny it again and I will punching you until you die! No one would care though. I can just bury you around here and no one can find you." Blood coated her hand and some were splattered on her face but she didn't care.
Mr. Guevarra cried and started speaking. "I did something horrible. I know it was wrong but I can't help feeling angry. His father killed my father."
"Thomas killed your father?" Jillyanna clarified since everything was being recorded in her phone.
The man sniffed while trying to block the pain from the wounds. "He didn't kill my father directly but he caused his death."
"Is it because your father stole the company's money to pay his gambling debt?"
"Hn. Thomas caught my father and because of that, my father jumped off the building to kill himself."
"How did that become Thomas fault?" Jillyanna punch his stomach with less force since she can't exert so much force due to pregnancy. "You almost killed someone because you are foolish. People lost their job because of your actions. You locked secretary Eva in the storage room, right?"
"Yes. She was calling Travis to expose me so I had to kill her." Mr. Guevarra admitted everything.
"Too bad she didn't die." Jillyanna told him. "She told the police of the things she knew. Adding this evidence, you will be imprisoned for life."
"And you will be imprisoned for this, too!" Mr. Guevarra shouted and laughed hysterically at her. He will bring down everyone with him specially that there was a 50/50 chances of Travis surviving and dying.
Jillyanna scoffed at him before striking his neck. "There's no evidence that I am here." she stated before walking away from the room.
"Yes mistress." Rylie answered and came out from the shadows again.

Galactic Internet: System Initializing Book 1
The Galactic Internet is a system takeover LitRPG with two MC's. It's gritty and dark at times, so I'd like to start with a brief warning. The story was made for adults, and as such contains some cursing, potentially traumatizing violence, gore, indentured servitudes. There is no sexually explicit material in the first book. However, there is nudity and sexual interactions aren't out of the scope of possibilities for later in the story. The first book is almost exclusively trying to figure out how the game works and trying to stay alive. It is a very open system that I've implemented. Expect to see anything from androids and aliens, to goblins and trolls.
