Chapter 1589
Elina's eyes widened and she struggled against the rope wrapped around her neck. She spoke with difficulty, "I-"
Johan said, "I've long known again that you intend to harm me, but I didn't expect you to want me dead this much. Since you hate me so much, you'd better leave this world with me. Elina, I promoted you to this position. Life in a wealthy and powerful family won't be peaceful. As the mistress of the family, you should bide your time until I die so that you can do whatever you want after that. But, you killed Kieffer and disobeyed me. I'm not going to let you off."
"You... old f*cker... how dare you... ugh..."
Before Elina could swear aloud, the old butler exerted some strength behind her and garrotted her.
Elina fell to the ground with a loud thud. The old butler knelt down to Johan, weeping bitterly. "Old Master..."
"Stop crying. Take the money and items I've given you and leave through the secret passage. Go as far as you can. Remember, don't ever come back in this lifetime. After all, this is not a place for a normal person to stay."
Johan lifted the quilt. It turned out that the place under him was the entrance to the secret passage. The old butler wiped his tears and gazed bitterly at Johan. "Master, please let me stay with you."
"No, just go. Even if you stay, there's nothing you can do other than die."
Johan opened the entrance of the passageway. The old butler looked around and left with the items and money at last.
After he left, Johan put the quilt back on and lay there.
He closed his eyes and waited.
Flynt came back and heard that his mother had been accompanying Johan. He thought that Johan was assigning something to her, hence he waited outside for two hours. However, he felt that something was amiss.
"I'll go in and have a look."
He strode into the room to find that his mother, Elina, had died next to Johan with her eyes wide open.
Flynt paused, not allowing the people behind him to enter. It took him a long time before he blinked. He walked in and held Elina in his artificial limb. He was so heartbroken.
Johan, who was beside him, said, "She brought this upon herself. Not only did she poison me, but she murdered Kieffer as well."
Flynt raised his head slowly. "Why must you do this? And let me see it?"
"It's for your own good. This is a place where only demons can survive. You are now a demon."
Johan cracked a smile. "You asked for it. You could have kept your mother alive, but you chose to go against me."
Johan closed his eyes and soon stopped gasping.
Flynt suddenly let go of his mother, picked up a pillow, and pressed it down on Johan's head, using all his strength!
Raeleigh stayed in Waverly Village for two days. As they didn't need her help in the village, she went to the university.
On the way there, Raeleigh sent a text message to Jacky. Currently, finding Austin was urgent!
"My men are still looking for him in Green House. You can rest assured that as long as he is still alive, he will be found."
Raeleigh grinned. "Thank you."
"Thank you too. If you hadn't told me that Deanna was going to give birth, I might not have come back in time. If anything had happened to her, I would have been devastated."
From the beginning to the end, the person whom Jacky was most grateful to was Raeleigh.
"How lucky you are to have two babies. I heard from my brother that they have overlapped in the uterus, so the fact that there were twins was overlooked. Anyway, I believe it's fate."
"Thank you."
Jacky was in a happier mood than ever before. He hung up and turned to look at Deanna.
Deanna was about to be discharged from hospital to return home.
Jacky almost ignored the two babies as he focused on looking after Deanna. The babies were being taken care of by Hannah and Rayan.
While Hannah was resting, she kept asking Rayan why Jacky didn't show any intention of taking the babies away.
It was also beyond Rayan. It seemed to him that Jacky didn't mind what the children's last name was.
Deanna had finished packing up. She checked on the two babies and headed for the hospital exit. Jacky placed a coat on her shoulders. "It's windy outside, you should be careful not to catch a cold."
"I got it." Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Deanna walked out while Hannah and her husband each carried a baby. Zorion and Rossie followed with the luggage.
When they left, Jacky didn't mention anything about going to Waverly Village. He followed the members of the Whalen family to their villa.
Emerging from the car, they went to Deanna's room.
She lay down while Jacky drew the curtains in her room to block out the blazing sun.
As for the babies...
Hannah put the baby down and looked at Jacky, asking, "Aren't you going back? If you have something to do in Waverly Village, you can go back first."
"No, I will just stay here. Deanna needs someone to take care of her. My mind won't be at ease if I go back."
"Then don't you want to..."
Hannah felt the urge to bring up the topic regarding the babies, but she didn't do so in the end.
"Let the babies live here first. When they are about five or six years old, if they want to go back to Waverly Village, they can go back then. My parents aren't there. Even if they go back now, I can't take care of them. The environment there isn't as good as here. I know that Dad and Mom will look after them very well."
Jacky had been addressing them as "Dad" and "Mom" the whole time. Hannah couldn't really tell what her emotions were, but she didn't manage to pick holes in his behavior.
"Is that so?" Hannah gazed at the babies, then at her immature daughter. This arrangement was to her satisfaction. She would not give the babies to Jacky. Even if he had parents, they did not come when Deanna was giving birth, thus she would not let them take the babies away.
Now that Jacky had spoken, she didn't need to say anything else.
"Jacky, have you named the babies yet?"
Deanna cared very much about this matter.
She could tell that her parents wanted the children to take 'Whalen' as their last name, which she was opposed to. In the future, she would go back to live in Waverly Village with her children. If they had the last name 'Whalen', they would become the subject of gossip.
Jacky shot a glance at Rayan. "Dad, why don't you give them their names?"
Rayan did not reply immediately. He had never agreed to be Jacky's father-in-law. If he gave the children their names now, wouldn't it mean that he agreed?
So, he did not answer.
Hannah stared at her husband, wondering what was going on.
Deanna asked, "How about Bobby Scott and Jerry Scott?"
Everyone in the room landed their eyes on her. The corners of Zorion's mouth twitched as he wondered what kind of names those were.
"Not good."
Jacky commented. Deanna then asked, "What should they be called then?"
Jacky was stumped by her question. After a long time, he said, "Heitor and Cedric."
Rayan and his son, Zorion, exchanged a look. These names were not bad.
Deanna said, "Heitor Scott and Cedric Scott?"
Jacky did not speak, nor did Rayan. Zorion, who was behind them, replied, "I think they sound pretty good."
They all looked at Zorion, who added, "All right, end of discussion."
With that, Zorion left. Deanna, on the other hand, was delighted by the fact that the babies had the last name "Scott".
