There was one thing he could confirm. Jack and Kurt used to be close. If Jack was really out for revenge, it would make sense why he got close to Madison
What Hunter didn’t understand was that Jack had the chance to hurt his children in the past two years. But he never harmed them, nor did he ever threaten Hunter.
Hunter had no idea what Jack wanted to do. He just wanted to bring Madison and his children back to his side.
But Jack took Madison, the children, and Everly with him and disappeared without a trace.
This was the eighth time Henry had come to his place that week. His temper grew as days passed.
Bryan enjoyed the show thoroughly. Sipping on his tea, Bryan commented, “I seem to remember a certain someone saying Ms. Hilton was just a disposable toy two weeks ago. This is the first time I’ve seen you so riled up over a toy, no less.”
Henry glared at him. “You’re only calm because this isn’t happening to you. I wonder if you could still have such a bright smile on your face if your woman left you.”
Bryan smiled. “Kate and I are just friends. Our relationship is pure. Don’t even think of us that way.”
“Pure?” Henry was clearly skeptical.
“I’m not in the habit of dating close friends.”
For some reason, Kelvin had the urge to tell Byran that Henry said similar things not long ago.
But look what happened. He was out of his mind with anxiety.
Brent said, “Mr. Synder, we’re utilizing a lot of resources on this search. Mr. Williams wants Mrs. Williams back more than you. You’re not the only one who’s anxious. This is not the time to point fingers. We need to work together to find them as soon as possible.”
Henry wasn’t having it. He placed his hands on Hunter and said, “Tell me the truth, did you let them leave intentionally?”
Henry stared into Hunter’s eyes.
“The island is yours. Your men were stationed there. How did they escape without you allowing them to?”
Henry wasn’t stupid. He sensed the change in Hunter’s attitude toward Madison long ago.
“I knew I couldn’t keep it from you.” Hunter didn’t try to keep it from Henry.
“I don’t care about how you want to manage your relationship with your woman. But you shouldn’t have meddled in my business.” Henry stared at Hunter coldly.
Seeing the tension rise between them, Bryan finally stepped in.
“Alright. To be fair, you wouldn’t have understood your feelings for Ms. Hilton if you hadn’t been separated. You can’t pin this on Hunter. They couldn’t have taken her if she didn’t want to leave.
“So, instead of blaming your friend, why don’t you two think about why they wanted to leave?”
Henry sat down dejectedly. “Why? I gave her so much money. Isn’t she in love with money? Why did she still leave me?”
“Are you dumb or just pretending? If a woman could be bought with money, that would mean she didn’t. really love you. She didn’t want the money and left you. It’s highly possible that she’s really in love with. you.
“But you treat her like a plaything. Since she couldn’t stand it anymore, she could only leave.”
Oftentimes, a bystander could see things with a more objective view.
Henry was stunned. “Are you saying she’s in love with me? But the rules we made up state that we’ll keep feelings out of this relationship.”
Hunter rolled his eyes at him. “If she’s really just a plaything to you, why are you so worked up over her?”
“…”
“Don’t you understand? A plaything can be replaced, but a lover can’t. You’ve fallen in love with her, but you don’t even know it yet.”
“I’m not in love. I just give her some special treatment.”
“Alright, if there’s no love, why have you lost your appetite? You’ve even been struggling to fall asleep in the past few days. You’ve been throwing a fit at your best friend over her too.”
Hunter’s questions struck a chord. Henry slowly became unsettled,
“Just admit it. You’ve fallen in love with her. If you really love her, you shouldn’t keep her prisoner. Or you’ll end up like me and lose her forever.”
With bloodshot eyes, Henry said, “I don’t love her. I don’t care where she is.”
Then, he left without looking back.
Bryan shrugged. “He’s just very stubborn when it comes to relationships. He’ll come around eventually and realize you’re right.”
“At least he still has a chance to fix their relationship, unlike me. It’s too late for me now. Allowing him to come to terms with his feelings sooner isn’t a bad thing. But I’m in the wrong too. Jack’s true identity threw me off completely.”
“That’s not your fault. I heard that things were heated between you and that person.”
Hunter grunted. Since he had the courage to sell me out, I won’t let him off the hook either. There will be a battle between us eventually.”
In the past, they only challenged each other behind the scenes. Nothing was ever brought into the light.
The incident on the cruise ship intensified their conflict. That person incurred billions in losses, so he turned around and exposed Hunter’s identity.
Hunter almost died on the streets because of that. But since he survived, it was only natural for him to get back at the person.
They had already escalated to open conflicts. Hunter even allowed Madison to leave his side. It was all for the sake of getting that position.
Madison would only be safe if he could clear out everything that posed a threat to her.
But Hunter didn’t know Kurt had a brother. Jack had become the biggest uncertainty in this situation.
Who was he? Was he a friend or foe?
“Mr. Williams, you’ve been busy with work these days. You’re even losing your sleep and appetite over Mrs. Williams. Your injuries haven’t completely healed yet. What will we do if you collapse?” Brent said.
Ever since Hunter’s identity was exposed in the dark web, Williams Group had also taken a hit.
The company had a lot of subsidiaries. Recently, a lot of them, such as the real estate arm and the F&B arm, experienced some trouble.
Some people were manipulating things from the shadows. They were from all sorts of shadowy organizations.
When running a business, the scariest threats came from the ones hiding in the dark. Even Bryan had received word of what was happening.
“If this goes on, your losses will be overwhelming. What’s your next move?”
“You know me. It’s going to be an eye for an eye. I’ll make them pay a hundred times over.”
Hunter sneered. “He knows I have the dirt on those people. He’ll only lose if this goes on. That’s why he got desperate and tried to make a move on the Williams family and Madie.
“But he didn’t expect me to let Madie go free. So, even I don’t know where she is. Needless to say, no one else knows. Without my biggest weakness, what else can he possibly do?”
Initially, everything was part of the plan. Sending Madison away meant he could do whatever he needed to without any reservations.
The only uncertainty was Jack. If Jack was on his side, he would emerge victorious. But if Jack had ulterior motives, he would be defeated because of Madison.
“Not being able to find Madison might not be a bad thing. We’ll only have to trust that Jack has no ill intent.
“If he really wanted to do anything malicious, he had many chances to do so in the past two years. Your twins were with him the whole time, but he didn’t do anything to them.”
Hunter sighed. “I hope so.”
He could only hope that everything would go as he had planned without any more accidents.
He thought, “Madie, you have to stay safe.”
As if sensing Hunter’s thoughts, Madison woke up abruptly and gasped for breath. She actually heard the heart -wrenching cries of a baby in her dreams.
There was a person standing a short distance away from her. The mask was reflecting the moonlight.
The twins were sleeping next to Madison. She placed a hand on her chest in fright.
“W-What do you need?”
Jack probably didn’t expect her to wake up.
Madison couldn’t see his expression because his face was hidden behind the mask.
For some reason, maybe it was the dim lighting, Madison felt like Jack was looking at her in a weird way.
“It’s nothing. I just heard you talking, so I came in to check. Were you having a nightmare?”
“Yeah.” Madison wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. She didn’t feel like sleeping anymore after such a scare.
“Why don’t we step outside?”
She always had questions for Jack but never had the opportunity to ask. They finally had a moment of peace.
The insects were chirping outside. It was the middle of summer in the southern hemisphere.
The town was very poor, and it was especially obvious at night. It was dark everywhere, unlike the city. where lights were all around.
There was a lone lightbulb at the entrance of the town. Its dim light could only illuminate a small area, but it attracted a lot of moths.
“Is it cold?” Jack asked.
Madison sat down on the steps of the door and looked at the starry night sky.
She shook her head and said, “I’m fine. Jack, doesn’t this feel like we were back on the island?”
“Yeah, when Tom and Jerry were still there.”
“I met Jerry some time ago. He’s about to go to university. He’s a promising kid and has a bright future ahead of him.
“I heard that Tom has been going out on missions. He’s a very impressive young man, too.”
Madison was reminiscing.
“Jack, there’s a question I’ve been meaning to ask.”
It was like Jack knew what she was about to ask.
“Ask away.”
“We’ve only known each other for a short time. I know you helped me investigate someone because of Martha and the others, but what about the things you helped me with afterward?
“You helped me out behind the scenes and raised my children for me. Even when I asked you to help me escape, you helped out to the best of your abilities without any complaints.
“We’re not family, but you risked your life to do all these things for me. There has to be a reason why you’re doing all this, right?
A dagger appeared in Jack’s hand out of nowhere. This was the first time Madison had seen his weapon. It looked like it was extremely sharp.
At that moment, Jack seemed mysterious with a hint of viciousness.
“Why don’t you guess why I’m doing this?”
Jack’s voice was low and sounded especially eerie in the dark. It sent a chill down Madison’s spine.
“I don’t know. All I know is that no one does anything for no reason. I know that there’s a price on everything. So, Jack, what do you want?”
After meeting up with him again, Madison suggested paying him some money as payment for taking care of her children for two years. But Jack didn’t accept it.
“People like me live each day like it’s our last. I’ve grown numb to the evils of the world and the deaths of people close to me.
“Martha saved my life back then, and I’ve been living on the island since. Then, you showed up, and the development of the island started.
“I planned to leave the island and return to walking my own path. Then, I saw a bounty for your life when I was in the organization. That’s why I helped out.
“Saving your children was just a coincidence. But now, I’m wanted by my organization, and I’m past the point of no return.”
Jack turned toward her and said calmly, “As for why I saved you, it’s probably because I saw the meaning. of life in you. You probably find this reason laughable.”
Madison could sense that Jack had been through a lot.
“Don’t you have any family?”
