100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 677  Yes, I Am (Jealous)

Just like Nathan, Jane received a message from an anonymous sender. She was surprised to find out that the content of the message was a voice recording. Tatsumi was standing next to Jane when she pressed the play button and listened to it.

*Voice recording playing*

{ Monica: "We are allies, dear sister, so there\'s no need for anger. Our rivals are Abigail and Jane. Let\'s direct our hatred and frustrations toward them. They must be dealt with." }

Jane\'s expression darkened as soon as she recognized Monica\'s voice including Veronica\'s voice. As she continued to listen, she found out the evil scheme the two sisters were plotting against her and Abigail.

{ Veronica: "I already shipped the serum yesterday. It was an express delivery so expect the cargo to arrive by tomorrow." }

"Are they planning to poison you and your sister? Who are they?" Tatsumi blurted out in his angry tone.

"Shhh!" Jane signaled Tatsumi to keep quiet. She needed to finish the recording first.

 { Monica: "Very good. Have you seen the news? Abigail and Dave are having their engagement party. Hmm. During their celebration, I am going to use the serum to test its effectiveness." }

{ Veronica: "Best of luck. Just ensure that the next news I receive is about Abigail\'s death, Sister," }

Jane\'s grip tightened on the phone when she heard the last sentence. "These two sisters are courting death. They can come at me. But I won\'t let them touch and hurt my sister. I\'ll kill them myself," Jane mumbled through her gritted teeth, her eyes set ablaze.

Tatsumi, who also heard the conversation, couldn\'t help but be furious towards those ladies. "Don\'t taint your hands, my Lady. I\'ll deal with them for you." Tatsumi volunteered. "Just say the word, I eliminate them. Who are these people trying to attack and target you?"

With a dark expression on her charming face, Jane replied to Tatsumi\'s inquiry. "Monica and Veronica. Monica is the one who deceived Nathan. I assassinated her. But it turned out, I killed the wrong person. And this was part of their plan."

Jane narrowed her eyes at the realization. Monica was aware of her identity as Phantomflake. However, the two sisters were still clueless about her real connection with Abigail. She was glad that they didn\'t know that Abigail was her biological sister.

"What is your plan, my Lady? I\'m willing to help you." Tatsumi consulted her again. He could see the anger in her eyes.

"I don\'t want to give them an easy death. They deserve a harsher punishment than death," Jane said with conviction.

Tatsumi bobbed his head in agreement. "I agree. So what do you think is the most suitable punishment for them?"

Jane\'s lips curled up into a sly smile and replied. "I\'m still thinking about it. But we need to track Veronica\'s whereabouts. She escaped from the Syphiruz Mafia. Based on their conversation, I can deduce that she is currently staying abroad."

When Tatsumi heard that, he hesitated for a moment. He had just reunited with Jane. But now, it looked like he needed to fly abroad to track Veronica.

\'Sigh. I will get separated from my Lady. But I can do this. I need to help her.\' Tatsumi thought to himself.

On the other hand, Jane noticed the sullen look on his face. "Are you okay? You haven\'t fully recovered yet. Can you do this?"

Tatsumi held her shoulders, casting her a reassuring smile. "I can do this, my Lady. I\'m recovering well. I can walk straight now."

"Thank you, Tatsu… I promise to compensate you. I appreciate your help. But I can\'t allow you to do this alone. Why don\'t you bring Hanabi with you?" Jane suggested. She was worried that something bad might happen to Tatsumi abroad. She wanted to keep him safe.

"No! My Lady. Not Hanabi. Instead of accomplishing our mission, this might result in disaster. I should find another partner. But don\'t mention Hanabi!" Tatsumi shook his head frantically, disregarding Jane\'s suggestion.

Jane could only giggle at his funny reaction. Hanabi and Tatsumi should learn to collaborate and work together as a team. Both of them were skillful and reliable. "Okay. Let me decide on that." Jane patted his shoulder.

They were still talking when Jane\'s phone beeped. She received a message from Nathan.

[ Nathan: Where are you? I need to see you. This is urgent. ]

Jane\'s eyebrows were drawn together upon reading Nathan\'s message. Jane was about to type a message when her phone rang. Nathan didn\'t wait for her reply as he decided to call her.

"May you excuse me for a while?" Jane requested Tatsumi as she needed to talk to Nathan privately.

"Okay, my lady. Just call me if you need me." Tatsumi obediently complied as he turned around, leaving Jane.

Jane thanked Tatsumi before answering the phone.

"Hello, Nate. I\'m hanging out with my friends. What\'s the matter?"

"Sorry for disrupting your bonding with them. Can you come to my place…I mean here in Syphiruz Mafia. There is something I need to tell you." Nathan didn\'t disclose the information over the phone. His very reason was to see her and talk to her personally. He seemed to miss her presence.

"Okay. I\'m leaving here to go to your headquarters. Wait for me." Jane didn\'t hesitate. Just like Nathan, she wanted to see her man.

Jane said goodbye to Tatsumi, telling him to stay behind and accompany Hanabi and Cherry in her hideout. She headed out to meet Nathan.

*Thirty Minutes Later….*

Jane arrived at Syphiruz Mafia Headquarters. Chantha welcomed her at the main entrance and guided her to Nathan\'s office.

Chantha and Jane entered the room together. They were greeted by Nathan and Axel. Nathan summoned his two trusted subordinates –Axel and Chantha, to join them.

Nathan and Jane met each other\'s eyes. She smiled at him while Nathan motioned for her to sit beside him. Chantha, on the other hand, joined Axel on the opposite sofa, facing Jane and Nathan.

"What\'s wrong?" Jane asked Nathan curiously. She could sense Nathan\'s grumpy mood and his chilly aura.

Nathan showed her his phone, containing the voice recording sent by Ethan.

Jane was surprised to find out that Nathan also received the voice recording from the anonymous sender.

"You also have this. Do you know who sent this? I can\'t track this number." Jane tried to find out who the sender was but she failed.

Nathan squinted his eyes at his phone. "The number has been deleted. It\'s not active anymore. But I already examined the voice recording. It is real, not fake. Monica and Veronica… they both want to kill you and Abigail." Axel and Chantha were already aware that Monica was alive. Nathan already told them about Monica\'s past scheme.

They could feel Nathan\'s anger as he spoke. Chantha and Axel looked at each other meaningfully. They knew that Abigail held an important place in Nathan\'s heart. And they thought he was getting mad because Monica and Veronica were targeting Abigail.

"I won\'t let them. I will protect my sister at all costs." Jane declared with determination.

"I called Axel and Chantha because I\'m gonna need their help to protect you and Abigail," Nathan explained to her. Then he shifted his gaze from Jane to his subordinates.

"Chantha, track the parcel. Make sure that Monica will never receive the parcel from abroad. Axel, I want you to catch Veronica and bring him to me," Nathan commanded them.

Chantha: "Got it, Boss."

Axel: "Okay, Sir."

The two responded in unison. "Oh right! Axel, you can work with Tatsumi in tracking Veronica. I already talked to him. He wants to help me capture Veronica and stop their evil plan." Jane finally found a suitable partner for Tatsumi.

However, someone got jealous at the mention of Tatsumi\'s name.

"You were hanging out with that guy a while ago?" Nathan questioned her with a jealous tone in his voice. "Upon receiving this message, you informed him and sought his assistance first, instead of contacting me?"

Sensing the heavy tension in the atmosphere, Chantha leaned closer to Axel and whispered, "Uh-oh, I can smell jealousy in the air."

Axel could only bite his lower lip and bobbed his head in agreement. Their Supreme Leader sounded really jealous.

Jane, on the other hand, blinked her eyes in amusement at Nathan\'s sudden accusation. Instead of getting offended, Jane let out a soft giggle and anchored her arms around Nathan\'s elbow.

"Mr. Sparks, are you jealous?" She asked him with her teasing smile.

Nathan pursed his lips, a deep frown forming on his forehead.

"Yes. I am." He admitted, surprising everyone.

Chantha: "..."

Axel: *Cough! Cough!*
