Chapter 107 - Mystery!?

His way of narrating the entire tale, made her think twice. Was there any hidden meaning behind it?

She wasn\'t sure herself but it still seems that he was trying to tell her, indirectly.

Turning around, Jennifer faced the person with her eyes. "Javier does his hatred for his family yet I feel that he cares for some.."

"He does. Moreover, he\'s the most kind-hearted person I have ever met. Oh, trust me what I\'m Not saying I because he is my brother but because... I know that he has been through a lot in the past and that is why the circumstances have made him develop in such a way.."

Charles\'s hands were tucked inside his pocket. He was standing inside the room, while, she stood outside on the terrace.

But keeping everything aside, she saw the seriousness on his face, with a light smirk added.

"His past sometimes makes me curious. You know he is a mystery too, hiding his shabby past yet I feel like knowing it. But somehow, I have controlled myself to not urge to know otherwise, it will make him more saddened." Jennifer doesn\'t know but she let the truth slip out of her mouth.

This wasn\'t how she is. Most of the time, Jennifer likes to keep to herself except in this case.

Javier was an exception and the light atmosphere that Charles provided to her, to converse made her feel a lot of comforts too. There was a high degree of intrusiveness which made her feel that he is a close one to Javier, surely he can never go against him and this was evident to this face too.

Charles smiled at her words and replied with calmness. "That is true. He is like that. But I assure you he will tell you everything very soon.. once the right time comes on his path and timing will be alright."

Right time? She was hearing this phrase for quite a long time already and once again, hearing it from Javier\'s brother made her think twice, are they thinking even the same!? It made her seriously wonder.

Jennifer stepped down from the railing and walked inside the room to pull the slides, closed the door, and covered it with the white curtains properly.

"I don\'t like getting my room messy as well so hopefully, Javier and My habits are somewhat similar."

"That is quite nice to hear. Would you like me to let you give a tour of the downstairs also? You should be aware of the rest of the household since we don\'t get to know for how long you will be staying at the place."

His mention didn\'t sound any worse to her and Jennifer simply agreed to go and be sick of everything.

…

Meanwhile back in the cabin of Shawn

Javier was currently standing by the window, to see the sight of the garden while Mr. Shawn was sitting on the armchair near the desk.

Adjusting his glasses, he replied back, "So Smiths wants to make negations with us, Javier. What do you think?"

"Expected already. They won\'t simply agree to our demands as always. For the very first time, we have the power and they are also aware of the same."

Javier.

Shawn didn\'t look much interested either. "Are your plans ready for the near future? You know that no one will agree so easily.."

"Let us once give a call to Lucas Smith then." At this comment of his, Javier turned around and faced his father, with an expressionless face.

Despite being younger, his aura was much more aloof than any of the lords. "Lucas must be in compliance to either call us or not. But let us have an idea of what he is thinking to do. Moreover, Lucas isn\'t the only key because the ultimate decision will be taken by…."

"The Elder Master Smith... his grandfather." Shawn\'s eyes turned black when he mentioned the name. Javier simply nodded in agreement.

The name was enough to make both of them angry, though Shawn knew to which length can that old man go. He was totally insane to the next heights!

At last, they both agreed and a call was made to Lucas via a regular phone, kept on speaker so everyone can listen.

The ring went through for a few seconds in the starting and then it was answered with a harsh voice, "Mr. Johnson, what a pleasure! I wasn\'t expecting a call from your side."

"Neither was I but the message that you dropped about negotiation made me once call you back to clear out things for once and all. Misunderstandings aren\'t appreciated in our kind of business you know what I mean?" Shawn used the most gentle yet threatening way to communicate his words

"Oh obviously! We work in the same field.." a laugh was a beard but Javier knew the fake laugh to not show that Lucas was getting angry.

Hiding the anger behind fake chuckles will not make them look like a macho man either.

"Since I have called, I believe Mr. Smith has the time to talk?" Shawn knew that the talk will ho long and asked for the proper time, "Y... Yeah sure! U have all the time in the world. Go ahead."

Javier was playing with a pen in his hand, his head was low but all his ears were stuck to the voice from the other side. "Alright, Lucas. Let me ask you, on what basis do you wish to negotiate?"

"The ruby… Is something unexpected that we are carrying with us for years? I don\'t think we can give this up so easily if you understand.."

\'Carrying for years?\' A scoff left Javier\'s face when he heard that.

At this point, before Shawn could have asked back, Javier responded, "Tsk tsk! Is Lucas Smith actually begging us to not ask for Ruby? The same ruby which belongs to our kingdom, and especially my mother? Hmm?"

....

Creation is hard, cheer me up!
