Everyone looked at Jack in disbelief. No one expected him to do such a crazy thing for someone who doesn't weigh enough for him. Even Riff got astound with his decision and interest showed big in his eyes. It's like he is mocking him for being stupid.
The sound of annoying laughter echoed to the woods. Riff can't get enough of this ridiculous moment. He feels like he already won a battle while the war hasn't started yet.
"I always think highly of you but I never thought you can this be dumb..... Well you offered yourself to me who am I to refuse". He gave Jack a signal to walk straight unto him and signal the man to walk pass him with Memory.
"Boss don't do this.... I beg of you don't trade your life for me!". Memory's tears began to fall she doesn't care if she will die this moment as long as Azalea and Jack can walk away from this mess but she never thought that a powerful man like her Boss will switch places with her without hesitation.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine besides she's watching over us". Jack said softly to her when he passed.
Memory suddenly stiffen for a short period of time. She didn't know Azalea and her husband already had a plan. The corner of her lips curved up slightly. Azalea who considered her as a friend have a plan to save her, she who is only doing her job to protect her was not just push aside by the person she is protecting, Azalea also protects her.
Memory reach Corbin and Jack is in the hands of Riff. Suddenly some of Riff's people came out from hiding. All their guns are aiming at them and they are all ready to kill.
"You are a very interesting person. Is this why Azalea choose you over me?". Riff's curiosity is over the roof now. From looks and wealth they are almost the same. Besides he thinks he is far more charming than Jack.
"What can I say.... I'm far more gorgeous than you". And Jack gave him a mischievous smile.
"Really?". Riff's fist landed on Jack's face and he saw how he almost lost his balance but didn't fall. "Well you really are a tough guy aren't you?.... Let's see how tough you are".
Another punch was given to Jack and blood rush down from the corner of his lips but an annoying grin still came out. He just brush out the and spit the blood from his mouth and smiled devilishly to Riff. He can see how Riff gritted his teeth because of anger. It made him laugh.
"Bastard!!!!". Riff is furious. He feels like Jack is making fun of him. He took his gun and aimed it to his face.
"Really?..... This is how you actually respond to a little tease?". Jack is mocking him more. He knows now, Riff's patience is very short he can use this for his advantage.
"Yes.... Now you know that my patience is very short, how about you call your wife and ask her to come out". Riff released the lock of his gun and watched Jack's expression.
"So my wife isn't really here". Jack shook his head and gave him another annoying grin. He didn't mind how Riff released the safety lock of his gun in front of his face. "How cheeky of you, making me think that my wife is in your hands".
"Well, I'm sorry if you're that stupid". Riff chuckles.
"I agree.... Love always makes someone stupid". Jack squint his eyes he wants to drag the conversation longer. "Tell me, I'm a little bit confused..... Why do you hate my wife so much, to the extent of pulling something like this?".
"You really want to know?".
"Yes.... Eagerly want to know".
"Honestly I don't hate your wife". He stop for a while and looked at Jack's reaction. "Her only crime is to be born and became her mother's daughter". Riff saw Jack's brows knit in one line. He is really confused.
"My mother in law is already dead..... I don't think her debt should be inherited by my wife?". Curiosity strikes Jack.
"Because of her mother I lost my family..... Your wife is a daughter of a demon slut!!!".
Jack saw a great anger in Riff's face after saying those words. He can't comprehend what he means but he will never hand his wife to him. He is a total psycho in his eyes right now.
"Azalea.... I know you're still around... Are you willing to see your beloved husband's brain on the ground?". Riff is shouting. Asking Azalea's presence while his eyes are still focused on Jack.
A sound of a broken twig echoes in the silence and the pregnant Azalea walks in front of them. She is holding a gun, aiming towards them.
"I'm here..... Now what?". Azalea is walking with full of confidence. In her eyes an intent to kill is flashing.
Riff pulled Jack and hide himself behind him while his gun is aiming to his brain.
"Put your gun down little lady or your husband will see his mother in law earlier than expected". Riff feels luck is on his side. He got an ace on his hands right now.
"Nope! ..... I can't do that". Azalea simply replied to him and she can see how all the people in that place was awed by her answer.
A loud laughter echoed in the woods. Riff is crazily laughing. "I knew it!... You bitch.... You are just like your mother, you are also a scam. Now that you're married it doesn't matter whatever happened to this fool you called husband. You well knew that everything will be yours after he dies!!!".
"Yup!".
"See!.... This is the woman you loved Jack Shin... She doesn't care about you, only your money".
"Well that's my woman.... I fully support her whatever she wants to do". Jack said with full of confidence.
"Shut up..... How stupid can you be!". Riff looked at Azalea with full of hatred. "And to think that I almost fall for you".
"Well good for you that you didn't". She simply said. "By the way, why do you hate my mother so much?".
"Because your mother is a slut".
"Oh is she?".
Riff squinted his eyes. Azalea's words sounded like she doesn't care about her family. He was expecting that she would retaliate and became very angry specially when he is cursing her mother but she is very calm.
"Your mother killed my father and made my mother insane of anger". Riff is starting to tell his deepest secret to her. He is expecting her to hate her own mother.
"How?".
Riff was silenced with that question. There was confusion in his eyes. A question of how his father died. It feels like a very hard question to answer.
"My father killed himself because of your slut mother!".
"Then it's not my mother's fault that your father had a suicide". Azalea can see the confusion in Riff's eyes. She knows he have a psychological problem. He is a ticking bomb.
"No!.... It's your mother's fault!!!!!..... I lost everything because of her". He paused for a while. "My mother.... I lost her too..... They took her away". Tears falls in Riff's eyes. "She is my everything.... She is all I have but they took her away!".
"Why?". Azalea became curious. Riff is a man who have everything. Looks, wealth and all the woman he wants. But how come he is so broken inside.
"Because she LOVES me.... She loves me like how she loves my father. Because I look so much like my father and she becomes my everything, my first.....!". Riff glared at Azalea with rage. "If your mother didn't kill my father she will never go insane and they will never take her away from me". Riff hold Jack's neck tightly and he can hear that he is chocking. He is starting to pull his trigger when a loud Bang suddenly echoed.
A continuous sound of guns suddenly appeared and Riff's men drop to the ground like dead flies and also Riff with a bullet between his eyes. Azalea shot him.
Jack's men came out from where they were hiding. They are still aiming at the dead people of Riff.
"Good thing we're not late". Lukas, Uncle Long and the rest of their men also came out of hiding. Uncle Long walks straight to Riff and Hugo's corpse. He gave them another bullet in their heads.
"That's for hurting our little princess". Uncle Long turned around and saw Jack running towards Azalea. A hump came and a slight grin comes out from the corner of his lips.
"Clean this area!".
