Chapter 9 - 7

Jessica: Mark?

Maverick stood there, wearing formal attire, his hand in front of Jessica.

Mark: Come with me

Jessica wiped her tears, tucked her hair behind her ears, and stood up.

Jessica: Where?

Mark: Don't you trust me?

Jessica nodded.

Jessica: I do. I trust you, Mark

Mark: Then come with me. It's not safe here at night

Jessica: Where will I live?

Mark: With me

Jessica weakly smiled. She held Maverick's hand tightly. Maverick opened the door for Jessica. Jessica got in the car and Maverick sat in the driver's seat.

Mark: Wear the seat belt.

Jessica was admiringly looking at him. She smiled and wore the seat belt.

Mark: What made you end up on the streets?

Jessica: I thought you already had the information. After all, you're a gangster

Maverick smirked.

Mark: Yeah, I know.

Jessica was looking outside the window. Suddenly, she looked at Maverick with a frown.

Jessica: Wait! Where are you going? This isn't the way to your house

Mark: I'm taking you to the house near the NY headquarters. It's a bit far from the house we'd been

Jessica mouthed an 'O'.

It was a tiring journey. Maverick finally stopped after three hours.

Mark: Jane... Jane, wake up

Jessica had fallen asleep on the way. Actually, she didn't.

Jessica slowly opened her eyes. It was already dawn.

Jessica: We've arrived?

Mark: Yeah

Jessica opened the seat belt and got out of the car. Maverick parked the car and took the front car infront of the door to the bungalow.

Mark: You go inside. I'll come in a few minutes

Jessica looked at him.

Maverick (smiles): Don't worry, no one will harm you

Jessica saw two men were sitting on the couch and playing chess. One of them was smoking cigars and the other was deeply concentrating on the game. Jessica didn't know what to say.

She stepped forward. Suddenly, the guy who was smoking cigars looked at her.

??: Hey bro! Who's this girl?

The other man looked at her. Jessica looked at them and smiled a bit.

Jessica: Mark brought me here

???: Who are you?

The other man asked. He grabbed a glass of water and was slowly drinking while looking at her.

Suddenly, another man came downstairs.

?: Oh hey!

Jessica: Who are you all?

?: Welcome Jane!

??: Jane? Is she a new girl? You know what I mean

The guy who was smoking smirked.

?: No. She's Mark's girlfriend

The other guy spurt out the water on the smoking guy's face.

??: What the fvck!

???: Girlfriend?

?: Leave these people. I'm Daniel Scott.

Daniel came forward and shook hands with Jessica.

Jessica: And you two?

The smoking guy said.

??: I'm Albus. This dumb is Alex

Jessica: Are you three gangsters too?

Alex: Yes, we are

He stood up and looked at Albus.

Alex: Checkmate

Albus was confused. He looked at the chessboard and his mouth opened.

Albus: Bro, I didn't notice

Alex: That's not my fault. Remember what you said.

Saying Alex went upstairs. Soon, Maverick entered and looked at the two of them.

Albus: Welcome bro!

The three hugged each other.

Jessica: My room

Maverick looked at her.

Mark: Come with me.

He took her upstairs and opened the door to a room.

Jessica: This is..?

Mark: One of the Top 6 members' room.

Jessica: Top 6?

Mark: The most important members of the gang.

Jessica: Where is he?

Mark: Dead. His name was Sean Smith

Jessica: Oh I'm sorry

Jessica entered the room. She sat on the bed and looked at Mark.

Mark: There's everything kept ready for you. Change your dress and come down. I wanna speak about a few important things. I want you to be present as well.

Saying, he went away.

Jessica: So they know Sean is dead. By the way, why does Mark look so unbothered? Does he have some plan?

Jessica quickly went inside the bathroom. She informed Ryan about the latest updates via messages and deleted those after they're delivered.

She took a quick shower and wore freshly ironed clothes. She felt warm and happy. She hurried downstairs.

Maverick, Albus, and Daniel were sitting there. Maverick looked serious. It was the first time Jessica saw him so serious. The three of them looked at Jessica.

Mark: Here, sit beside me.

Jessica smiled and sat close to him. Maverick put his arm around her shoulder. Soon Alex came and joined them.

Jessica: What are you all talking about?

Mark: You'll soon come to know about it. Did you find out anything, Alex?

Alex: Yes

Daniel: Who is she?

Alex looked at Jessica. Jessica could sense that their eyes were on her. She raised her eyebrows.

Alex: I know who she exactly is and where she is from.

Alex had an evil grin on his face and looked at Mark. He poked his tongue on his right cheek and then smirked looking at Jessica.

Alex: I know everything about her.

...shit! Did I get caught?
