His Great Sin

"Do I have to ask you twice?". Jack sits back again to the chair that was given to him earlier.

"I don't know what are you talking about!". William is not looking at him while answering his question.

"Oh..... But I think you do". His guts is telling him that someone is plotting a scheme against him and he wants to find out who it was.

William is grinning at him. He feels like Jack needs the information about the man who handed them a great help but he has no plan on telling what he knows about him.

"Okay... Let me give you a hint". Jack lean on the chair and crossed his legs while his hands are on top of his legs. "The man gave you money and security for your family, am I right?". He saw him changed his facial expression from grinning to serious.

They already did a background check on him and they know he have a family hidden far away from everyone's eyes. Even if he is a leader of a gang he is still a family man who cares about his family. They are his strength and also his weakness, just like him.

"What if... We pay them a visit, let say..... Tomorrow?". Jack is now grinning at him. He saw how he became furious in an instant.

"Don't you dare!". William is gritting his teeth in anger and his face became fierce. An intent to kill formed in his eyes.

"Oh my, did I push the wrong button?.... Why do you look so mad at me?". Jack's expression is like somewhat crazy. He laughs like he have seen something very funny on William's face. "Don't worry I won't touch any of your girls, specially the sick one. What's her name again?... Ah, little Lucy".

Jack saw how his eyes grew wide and a panic registered on his face. He got the message that they've already seen his family.

"Please, spare them!". He panicked. "They've got nothing to do with this". He almost beg and kissed Jack's feet after hearing his youngest daughter's name. He can give his life but he don't want any harm to come to his family.

"Don't worry, all I need is a name and I promise I will help you to live a normal life with them". He knows William won't refused a great offer like that. A new beginning in life with the people you love. He saw an opportunity.

"Are you sure, you can give me something like that?". He can't believed his words yet until he sees it with his own eyes. A life far away from who he is now and near to the people he loves.

"Only a name William and a face can be added to". Jack knows he is already in the palm of his hands.

"He said his name is Glaucus. He told me that you were the responsible person in my brother's death and he offered me his help and money so that I can avenge Wilson". His tears fall after confessing to Jack.

William feels like he is betraying his dead brother by saving his own family but he don't have any choice now. He needs to accept the fact that he is already dead and his wife and daughters are still alive and has hope to live a normal life with him if he just cooperate to Jack.

Jack became silent and his face shows no emotion. He was in his deep thoughts. He knows the man who keeps using that name as a code but he can't just go to his house and ask him or worst shoot him because that's what he is feeling right now. He can't believed his grudge to him is so big that he is already planning to take his life by using another people. He needs to be calm for now and get a hard evidence against him before he takes some action.

"Corbin..... Send him home. I already got what I want". He stood up and head out of the ruined building. He needs to think about his situation right now and plan ahead. He already made his move he can't let him to be ahead of him more.

"Sir, Ms.Son is in the City Hospital". Corbin is walking behind him and informed him about Sue's location. "The place will be cleaned by our men in no time, we can head back to the city now". He is ushering him to their car.

Jack keeps on walking and went inside his car followed by Corbin. After getting the driver he drove them straight to the City Hospital where Sue was confined. Corbin is the one ordering his men around.

"How is she?". He asked Max when they got to Sue's room. There are few of Max's men outside her room standing as a guard.

"She's fine".

"The baby?".

"My child is fine too". Max made his claim to Sue's unborn child.

A few minutes later Sue wakes up and asked for Max to be on her side. She is still shivering in fear everytime she thinks of the deaths she saw in that ruined building. She only calms down when Max is holding her.

Jack walks beside her bed and looked at her poor state. Azalea been in the worst situation and seen deaths too but she never fall like Sue did. He felt pity for her. He saw her looked at him and saw fear in her eyes. She tried to hide in Max's broad body.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you". He took a step back, away from her. "And I don't think your man will allow me too, anyway". He saw her took a peek at him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to caused you problems". Her voice is shaking. She already developed a fear for him.

"It's okay, I just came here to see you and to make sure you're alright". Jack used to like her and turned to hate now, he felt sorry for her. She became a victim of her own greediness and her child almost paid the consequences.

"I hope now, you understand why it's hard to be with me".

Sue nod repeatedly and her tears falls again. She swear to herself that she will never going back to Jack's arms. She already saw his world and she can't live in a world with full of blood and deaths. She don't want to be a part of his great sin.

Azalea was sitting on their two step stair in front of their door waiting for her husband. He called her earlier and told her, he is coming home. She cooked some simple dishes in a flash enough for their dinner and asked their servants to prepare the food while she is waiting for Jack to come home.

Jack's car went in to their big and long garden path. It will going to stop in front of their house before it will go to their garage. He was surprised when he saw his wife sitting on their low stairs and she looks like she's waiting for him. His lips curved up when he saw her stands up and her face became bright when she saw his car coming. His heart is pounding when he laid his eyes on her again. He loves this woman so much that his heart skipped his own beat by the sight of her.

"Your home!". Azalea hugs him as soon as he came down from the passenger seat. She looked up to his face and wait for her kiss.

Jack chuckles when he looked at her. He knows she is waiting for him to kiss her. He lowered his head and gave her his most gentle and loving deep kiss.

"How are you... Have you been a good girl for the whole day?". He asked her after detaching his lips from her. He saw her nod and gave him her sweetest smile.

"I miss you!". She pouted her lips and her eyes contained a hint of sadness. "I can't even call you and you didn't call me the whole day. I was so worried". She keeps her promised of not calling him until he calls her first. But it only made her worry.

"I'm sorry, I've been busy, but starting today you can call me anytime you want". He grants her a kiss on her forehead.

"Really!"...I love that". Then she giggles.

"And I love you too!".

Jack's heart is torn between happiness and fear. His wifes feelings for him makes his world whole but her safety makes him worry. He knows one day something will going to happen and he is not sure if he can prevent it or can save her from danger. For now he needs to be extra attentive to her and always make sure that she won't be out of his sight and one of his eyes is Memory.
