You’ll thank me later

Pearl was in a black shiny dinner gown which was almost the same style as Sophia's but for the high neck and handless design. She adorned her outfit with a silver necklace with matching earrings. The diamond hair pin which she used to hold back her hair off her face glittered like her gown. She looked radiantly beautiful. She was seated in her limousine busy on her phone while Henry was driving.

She was on a call.

"What's happening Josè. Any updates"

Josè's car was parked in a discrete place just a meter from Jason's house.

"He went in a while ago. I'm not sure he's coming out" He said.

"Did he drive his car in"

"No it's still outside"

"You'll have to wait a bit longer. He might come out again. I'm on my way"

"Yes Boss".

She hanged up.

....

Sophia hit the ground once Jason pulled her through the kitchen window.

She winced in pain and glared up at him.

He put a finger on his lips, signaling her to stop talking.

Then he bent down at her feet and starts tying up her ankles

"What do you think you're doing" She starts hitting his back while shouting. "HELP....Help me.... A madman's trying to abduct me. Hel...."

Jason ties a piece of cloth over her mouth. Sophia's eyes widened and as she tried to loosen it, he held her wrists together and tied it up too.

Sophia starts screaming but it was muffled. He looked into her eyes and could see nothing but pure hatred and confusion. Her eyebrows were raised up and she shook vigorously.

He waited for her to struggle some more and when she was tired, she cast him her puppy dog eyes and started saying something which of course he couldn't hear. He chuckled.

"Look" He tried to maintain a serious face. "I know you hate me completely right now but you're going to thank me later. I can't really explain why I'm doing this but..." He stands up, carrying her in his arms. "I knew you wouldn't come with me even if I had to tell you the reason. That's why I had to do this"

She gave him a murderous look now. She starts hitting his chest with her tied up hands, screaming again. She kicked her legs up and down like a little child. But Jason kept moving through the darkness, ignoring her.

"You'll thank me later."

Pearl looked at her phone. Josè was calling. She looked up at Henry.

"Speed up Henry. We haven't got all night"

She placed the phone to her ear.

"What's wrong"

"He just came out. He's....I think he's carrying a lady Boss"

Without doubt, Pearl knew it was Sophia.

Her expression darkened. She told him not to interfere in this!!!!

'Son of a ..." She started to say but she paused.

"I want you to follow them and when you have the chance, kill them"

"The both of them???"

"Yes! The both of them. Was I speaking Spanish when I said 'Kill them' ?" She hollered into the phone.

"N..No Boss"

"And if you mess this up, don't bother coming back to me because I will kill you. Got it?"

"N...I mean yes Boss"

"Bring back the corpse of my Sister."

"Your sister?"

She almost broke the phone as she held it tightly in her hands.

"The female in the car you fool. Don't mess this up. I'm warning you" She hung up and threw the phone aside.
