Chapter 40 Dumbstruck

* Blaze’s Pov *

I felt stuffy in my chest as if something is not right, but I thought it’s because I had to leave Anna; I go back and want to spend my night with my wife,

But when the maid came and informed me Jack was not feeling well, I ran to check on him because he was good when I left him.

It might be because of the sea air; he never went out of the city; they kept him inside the Frey’s mansion.

Sometimes, I feel bad for this body because of our enemy; he had to live a life no one expected—poor boy.

I stroked his hair gently until he finally fell asleep. I was with him the whole time, but it was just for 1 hour. I left his room after checking him.

I went back to our bedroom, where Anna is sleeping. Finally, I can have a peaceful night with my wife.

The room was dark; Anna hates it when someone lights up the room during deep sleep.

I slowly went to bed without switching the lights. I lay down and wanted to hug my wife, but all I got was an empty pillow; I rose and carefully checked. But she was not in bed.

I jumped out of bed, searched for her. She was not in our bedroom, and I even checked the bathroom, but she was not there.

I ran out of the room. I was hoping to see Anna in the dining area or the kitchen. She never roams around the castle at night time.

But she was nowhere to see. So I called the maids, and they all gathered in front of me.

“Where's your madam? I asked them in an angry voice; for her, I don't know what happens to me; I can't control my possessive character.

“Sir, madam went out to get some fresh air. She said she felt stuffy inside. One of us went with her,” one maid answered me. I sighed. Finally, I could breathe; at least she left with someone.

I went out and searched for her, but she was nowhere to see. I called my men, “Where is your Madam? They looked at me.

“Sir, madam went to the seaside; I wanted to follow her, but she looked sad, so I didn’t want to irritate her anymore. I sent a maid with her,” he said.

I know Anna hates when my men follow her, so I searched for her, only to find the maid. She was lying on the ground, unconscious.

My heart skipped a beat; I called my men, they all came running.

“Search her right now; if something happens to her, I will kill each one and feed your body to the sharks’

My soul jumping out of my body every time I think of these negative possibilities? I dragged my hair from anger; I just left for an hour; she was nowhere to find, fuck why went to jack’s room.

The maid also could take care of him. Why did I have to? I blamed myself.

“Jack,” suddenly a thought hit me.

I ran inside, as I only stopped before his room. I checked his body and his toys, and as I thought I found a spy camera, my entire world turned up and down.,

“Call Lucas right now” Lucas was resting in the guest room, so when my men called him, he ran upstairs.

“Fucking hell, see this, they took Anna, fucking bitch planned everything,” I screamed when jack suddenly cried; I looked at the maid.

“take care of him,” I said and about to go out when Jack cried out, not now jack, but I failed to break free; he was holding me from behind,

I helplessly stroked his head. “Jack, I need to go, stay with this aunty.” He didn't hear my words.

Then I tried something like, “Jack, do you know who gave you this toy? I asked him, hoping for an answer.

“Dylan daddy gave me on my birthday,” he said innocently. What the fuck? Everyone in his room was shocked.

Lucas’s eyes widened like mine. We were dumbstruck.

"What's going on< Jack, what did you call him, why do you call him like this?” I tried to hold back my beast.

“Because mom said he is my dad, but it’s our secret, and I can’t tell you, but I don’t like him.”

“Oh god, oh god,” Lucas and I screamed at the same time; I don’t know what I felt at that moment because the boy who is my brother’s son suddenly became my enemy’s son.

And I was taking care of him like my own son; now every puzzle connect, so she was the one who was on that video; oh shit,

I searched for that woman for almost five years, yet she was hiding in front of me.

When these people killed my brother and Lucas’s brother, a woman was there in the black coat, so she was Lucia.

I ran out of the room because I needed to find Anna. I know where she is.

I went to my room to find my phone, and I found something else “fucking bitch, I'm going to kill her with my hands today.”

I found these photos and videos on my phone, and everything was enough to understand what’s going on.

I dialed her number; she picked up “hi Blaze, I was waiting for you” her cheeky voice angered me.

“Where are you? I know she planned this for a long time, so no need to play hide and seek with her anymore; this time, everything will happen face to face, with no mask and no secret.

“You know where to find me” she hung up, and I walked out of my room.

“Where is Jack? Lucas was standing in front of the stairs.

“He is with the maids; why are you asking this? I didn’t let him complete his thoughts and went to Jack’s room; I picked her up.

“Blaze, no, you can’t do this,” Lucas tried to stop me.
