My Roommate Is My Baby Daddy のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Jade was seated inside the taxi and hoping that she could just get a saving grace at the time.She embraced herself and heavy breaths. Her chest tightened and her head was bent with her hands trying to dial the number of someone.Her eyes were already red with tears."Pick up, please pick up," she pleaded in the air.The phone kept ringing from the other end but nothing. She called again, her hands shivering and the temperature in the car becoming dangerously hot and uncomfortable.She was already parked in front of Nana's house. She stepped down from the taxi and pleaded that he waited for her stating that she's not going to be long. The house was just sitting there, no movement or sign of life but she was determined.Each step further to the house felt like a heavy stone thrown and raised again before a step or move could be completed.She looked around to make sure none was watching.Jace had already pulled over a few meters away and for sure, she wasn't going to notice because sh

Jace was already up close to the building."Louis, what's the location of our target?" He asked."Target acquired. They seem to have stopped at 4th Avenue.""I think I've spotted the taxi. Harrison pull over here," Jace instructed."Yo, this place is a huge mess. Boss you used to come by here to chill and that was about two years ago.""Bingo! So that's it? That's where she took the photo." He said looking at the grey wall close to the garden which was now faded and covered with vine."What did you say boss?" Louis asked looking confused and raising a brow."You know what, nevermind." Jace responded, coming back fully to his composure."Well, you used to have good times here. What could have caused such a disaster to this heaven on earth? I used to adore this place." He said, then turned to his computer to make more research."Louis, stay in here. Contact me if you suspect anything fishy." Jace instructed.Louis put his hand inside a bag and brought out a small box, then he proceeded

"The criminals have been arrested and they're already inside the vehicle." A soldier replied to his colleague on a phone call. It was already late at night and the building was surrounded by a few other soldiers. Nana had been taken to the hospital for care. Standing close to the soldier's vehicle was Jade, holding Harper in her hands tightly. Her appearance was rougher than before with dust all over her body amd open wounds from falling earlier.When the gunshots had happened, she thought she had lost it all. Right now, Harper was her reason for existing. Loosing this baby meant losing her life and she wouldn't be able to forgive herself or even Jace if anything had happened to her.She was still shaken by the incident. Harper had almost fallen off one of the kidnappers who was shot by the soldiers but luckily for her, Jace swooped right in, graced the rough floor with his skin and saved her.But that didn't come without its demerits. He was hit by the bullet on his arm.Jade e

The next morning when Jade woke up, she noticed how quiet the house had become. As she walked out of the hall, she glanced at Jace's door. He could have left the house early because she heard some movements at dawn. She sighed and went to the kitchen to make herself some coffee. This was her last cup and she needed to get more. While getting the water ready, she checked her account balance and mentally prepared her list. First, she needed to get back to this new job that Mara got for her, work harder so she could gather the money to pay back Jace. He needed to leave her and her daughter alone. Nothing much. Also, she wouldn't have to be in constant fear of Mara suddenly catching in on this. Maybe she could meet with her boss and try negotiating a higher pay. She sighed again and glanced at her wounds. The event from yesterday was still reeling in her head. She couldn't even sleep well last night as she had bad dreams all through. Jace walked into an office immediately the door

"Why should I believe you in any ways? Didn't I ask you where he was and you said you had no idea?" Mara questioned him suspiciously, her brows raised and her eyes almost intruding his skull. "Stop looking at me like that, baby. You scare me." He released a nervous chuckle. Mara rolled her eyes. "Listen Jackson, you should know that I am not a fan of all your kinds of clickbaits, alright? Open this door. I need to leave." She instructed. Now the playful side of Jackson was gone. He turned to face her squarely, breathing everything else aside from words for a few minutes. He didn't know what to say. He was treading carefully over here with his intention. Mara wasn't a kid. She couldn't be controlled or manipulated. As young as she was, she had this wisdom within her and was very careful of the kind of men she mingled with. Even before she settled with that man, Jack had been persistently chasing after her, hoping to win her heart but when he discovered that he had lost, he
