The Art Of Revenge (Thalia Nash and Brandon)

Chapter 72

The Art Of Revenge

Jessica’s pov

As I stared at the bit*h with the gun pointed at me, my heart stopped. I had never imagined the picture I

was staring at. Victor was handcuffed, his eyes swollen and bloodied, and he had blood all over his

mouth and clothes. Thalia stood beside him, holding a gun and what appeared to be pepper spray. The

woman was plainly insane. As she directed, I lifted my hands and quickly pushed on the door as per

her instruction, ignoring Victor’s calls to call for help.

I was terrified; there was far too much blood for me to believe she wouldn’t blow off my head and get

away with it. There was nothing inside the black coat that I wore. I was completely naked, and any

movement or attempts to grab the gun would expose me. Visiting a father in raw in nothing but a coat

would be the biggest scandal in the country. I had to play nice, we’ve had a lot of scandals and are

scared or risk being exposed.

I had gone over to surprise Victor with a sex snack that he was meant to fantasize about for the rest of

the day. We never did it in the morning but on that particular day, I woke up h*rny and found he had

already left for work so I decided to surprise him but I had no clue the ex-daughter-in-law was planning

a full-fledged assault the same morning.

“Take a seat,” she said, motioning to a chair near Victor. “What exactly is your plan here? You will not

get away with murdering us, ” I warned her.

” By the way, how is Josh doing? He seems to be getting fatter by the day; what are you feeding him?”

she inquired, a sleek smile on her face. I averted my gaze since I didn’t want to bring up my

Useless husband.

“How’s the marriage going? Is it as rosy as you hoped for when you finally won his heart and got rid of

me?” she inquired. I could hear the mockery in her voice; she was well aware of how messed up my

marriage was, which was all thanks to her. I averted my gaze and folded my arms.

She walked to where I was sitting and pepper-sprayed me right in the eyes, much to my surprise. As I

shouted out in agony, my eyes felt like they were on fire. I tried to stand up but she aimed the gun at

my stomach. I froze because I knew something was supposed to be cooking in there, even though it

was way too early. Victor, too, took a breath and came to a halt with his screaming. For a breath

second we shared a stare but quickly looked away, even the pepper spray in our eyes seemed to have

vanished at that particular moment.

“Let me make myself clear, when I ask you a question please be quick to answer,” she warned. The

last thing I needed was a hole in my stomach, so I hurriedly nodded in terror.

“Now I’ll ask you another question: how is your relationship with my ex? Is he behaving and not treating

you like an animal?” She asked as if she had gone crazy. I rubbed my eyes, they became itchy.

“Hey sk*nk, you’re demoralizing me!” she stated

“My eyes hurt, you’re a m*ron… I tried to scream, but before I could finish my statement, she forced the

gun into my mouth, nearly touching the back of my throat. I felt like suffocating, the sensation was

nauseating, especially because I was still recuperating from the spray in my eyes. I tried to take the

gun away from her, but she pepper-sprayed me again. I had no choice but to let go of her and wipe my

eyes.

“What’s the f**k is wrong with you?” I sobbed. It was like humiliation was following me everywhere I

went. Victor was cursing her and attempting to free himself, but she merely smiled and told us to quit

fighting the process. She’d gone insane.

“Will you answer the question or will I have to spray you?”

“Josh is the worst person I’ve ever known!” I stated as her serious face began to curve into a smile. I

looked in Victor’s direction but he looked away. I continued, “Is that the information you are itching to

hear? How your ex is treating me. Is Brandon Fraser so boring that you are always thinking about how

Josh is treating me? I screamed at her.

“You know it’s too hot, you may take off your coat,” she said, chuckling as she moved to the side of my

table.

I stopped massaging my eyes and froze, I had nothing under my coat and if she forced me to take it off,

we’d be exposed right away; even a first-grader could see that. Victor spoke out suddenly as if he had

noted I was naked. “I’m suing Mandel for this nonsense, and I’m suing you for the nonsense!” He

screamed.

“I suppose your father would be pleased to know that you for f**king your way up the corporate ladder

after foolishly signing away your inheritance away,” he exclaimed.

As she leveled the gun at him, I could hear her breathing heavily. The words he spoke slashed her to

the core.

“The fact is that you were simply too st*pid; any other man would have taken everything from you if it

hadn’t been for Josh,” he added.

She got closer to him, and the room became quieter. She was going to shoot him, I was certain. She

went within inches of him and aimed the rifle directly at his face.

He cried at her, “Do it, shoot me, you are so dumb!” She smiled and spat on his face, much to my

shock. She smiled again, the only thing Victor could do was close his swollen eyes with disgust.

“The next saliva will land on your mouth,” she added as she pulled out her phone, texted something,

and then returned her attention to us. “It’s just a shame that the fat foolish son isn’t here; I’d love to

shove this pistol in his idiotic mouth, but he’s not here,” she said “Yes, I was foolish in love, yes, I was

naive, but some people love too much and lose their senses. I believe Jessica here understands what

I’m talking about, or perhaps she married for financial gain?” She mocked.

I would have battled her and sn*tched the ridiculous gun from her if I had had clothes inside my jacket,

but I couldn’t risk exposing my affair with Victor, so she would notice even the tiniest movement, so I

had to sit there and suffer the humiliation like a good girl. Victor would signal me to take the rifle while

she was chatting and getting carried away, but I was too terrified. I’d persuade myself not to since the

jacket was too short and I’d be exposed.

“Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that whether it’s through good books or the back door, I’m going

to obtain Gentex, and it won’t take four years for me to get it,” while gazing at Victor dead in the eyes,

she stated.

“You’re implying that you’re going to buy the public stock!” Victor asked in a mocking tone. She merely

smiled and averted his gaze.

She answered, “just sit back and see how young people take over organizations.”

The door opened and a solemnly serious man, the same man she had been with at the (co ck tail)

party, strode in. Three built-in guards escorted him in, and he walked straight to Thalia in shock. “What

the f**k are you doing?” he said, staring at me and then at Victor. He screamed at her and sn*tched up

the gun.

“They were not cooperating, and I was scarcely able to communicate with them,” he responded.

“Is it possible to remove the st*pid cuffs from my wrists?” Victor screamed angrily at him.

“Shut up, fool,” he said, turning to Thalia. “Are you all right upstairs? Don’t you know we may be sued?”

he inquired.

“Allow them to sue us if they have the financial means to do so,” she joked. He literally dragged her out

of the office by her arm. One of the guards grabbed her handbag as another began uncuffing Victor as I Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

swiftly rose up and breathed out.

Victor attempted to take the handcuffs as evidence but was prevented by the powerful hands. The

other guard cut the phone wire in half after disconnecting it. They both then demanded that we hand

over our phones, which we did, and they walked out of the office, shutting us in.

I dashed to the door and yelled for assistance, certain that I had left the worthless secretary at her

desk. Was she deaf or her hearing was impaired? Wasn’t she aware of all the people that were

entering and exiting the office or maybe she was blind?
