The Dark Side of Fate Novel Chapter 63 – Jenny’s Treasures ~Sylvester~
I took out the following letter, and it was
a letter my mother had written to Jenny.
“Dear Jenny, I am pained to my soul that
Maurice would do such a thing to me.
Kindly let me know if there is a way to
overturn this injustice. That seat is
rightfully mine, and I want Dominic to sit
on it as head of the council. Please, I need your help. You know everything, and you know that bitch Alissa and everything she did to me. Please help me overturn this cruelty. Yours Stephanie Balyaev Volkov”
It read, and I went through Jenny’s scribbles.
Studying the scribbles, she was tracing
David.
I wondered what she was tracing him for. Was it to do my father’s bidding or my mother’s bidding? According to the
scribbles, David had moved from Grizlo
to Haddad, then he moved to Lucland and
went to the west to live in Gad, after
which she lost track of him. Why was he moving about so much?
The following paper was a letter from my father before he went on a pilgrimage.
“Dear Jenny, Hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you because Gavin, Lucas and I won’t see you before we leave for our pilgrimage, but I promise we won’t be long. Also, I have decided to instate David as the head of the council using the Balyaev seat. Kindly help me find him and ensure he takes his place as head of the council. Also, please keep it between us because you know how
Stephanie can get. When I return, I will
reward you greatly for your loyalty.
Yours sincerely, Maurice. PS do not forget to buy a replacement for the red lace that I like. See you soon, darling,” it read, and
I was stunned. 4
I did not need someone to explain what I had just read.
Jenny was sleeping with my father. They were having an affair, and I was sure my mother did not know because Jenny was
my mother’s best friend.
The following letter was addressed to my father while he and his officers had left on pilgrimage.
“My darling Maurice, you need to be careful; I think Stephanie is planning to get you. She said something about you stealing from her. I do not know why but she seems to want to set you up. Please be careful and come back to me in peace. I
bought the red lace you like, and I hope it lasts before you rip it. Please hurry. I miss
you so much, and my body is craving your touch so much that I find myself touching myself often just thinking of you..” I
could not finish the letter because it
seemed like the rest was dirty talk.
From what I had read so far, Jenny was playing two sides.
I suspect she lied to my father about my mother being out to get him. All my mother said was that she did not want David to have her ancestral seat, and she was in the right. Unless there were other communications between then and when she sent the letter to my father. I would have to dig deeper.
It was wrong for my father to try to pass my mother’s seat and Dominic’s
birthright to his bastard.
“Darling,” Tamia said, and I looked at
her. She was holding a photo album and her eyes looked a bit worried.
She handed the album to me, and I was shocked at the content. According to the pictures, my father had a child with Jenny. 3
I began to rake my head, wondering who this child was because he wasn’t David, and according to the time stamps on the pictures, I was just two years older than the baby.
“That isn’t all,” she said and showed me some letters.
I read the content.
“Whores have no place on the council. You better keep your mouth shut, or I will shut it forever.” it read, and I was surprised.
The next one read.
“I see you are getting cosy with your position on the council. I wonder how people would feel when they find out your were fucking the wolf lord while married
to your late husband, of which you currently occupy his seat on the council. What would they say when they find out.
you even had a bastard by the wolf lord three years after your husband died?
Bloody hypocrite. I will advise you to shut
your mouth and stop digging for shit, or you will get what is coming,” it read, and
there were lots of them.
Some had dried tears on them. Meaning Jenny wept while she read some. I
wondered about the kind of life Jenny was living.
I put down the letters and picked up Volkov’s file again.
“She kept a journal, Sylvester,” Tamia
said, and I looked at her and saw a book
in her hand.
Just then, the rest of our team walked into
the office.
“Sylvester, Jenny was screwing our fathers,” Marcel said, and I looked at him.
He showed me a black-and-white picture of Jenny tied and Marcel’s father, Lucas, and my father having their way with her.
We did not need to guess who was behind the camera. It was definitely Theodore’s father.
I wondered about the kind of sick life our parents were living.
I turned the picture and saw a scribble. 1
“To Maurice, thank you for letting us share your woman this once; it was an awesome experience. You are one lucky man to have someone like her. Hope you
are open to sharing again. We looked good together,” It read, and both Theodore and Maurice’s father signed it.
Gavin and Lucas. 1
I bowed my head in shame because there
were times the three of us shared women like this, but it seemed Jenny belonged to my father, who let them have her once. I dumped the picture, and Tamia picked it
up. Avery and Linda joined her in studying it. 1
I continued to flip through the documents in my hand.
“Sylvester,” Tamia said softly, and I looked at her.
“Jenny was in pain in this picture. I think she was being taken against her will,” She said, and I did not care, but it must be a clue to what had happened.
I collected the picture from her, and
indeed Jenny was not happy. Why did my father do this to her? I guess I will have to let Tamia study her journal.
I found a letter addressed to my mother,
and it read.
“Stephanie, I know you set Maurice up in the south. You didn’t have to do it. You
have ruined a lot of lives. I know he hurt
you, but why will you do this to him? I had apologised to you for sleeping with him; I even helped you make sure David did not ascend your family seat on the council. Why couldn’t you let it go, Stephanie? I hope you will have the courage to tell your sons that you set their father up and had him killed in the south, “I She said. The letter looked written in haste as if the writer was experiencing anger and sorrow at the same time.
I quickly checked to see if my mother had replied to her, and she did.
“How dare you insinuate such nonsense? I would have killed you if I had planned to have him killed. I am not angry about you grieving the death of your lover and lord, but don’t you dare try to pin it on me or bring my sons into the conversation. As for this bastard, David, that you
manipulated his position, do not say you did it for me. Vino is your brother’s son, and you love him dearly. You did it for the sake of the Lawrence family. Let this be the last time you will try to accuse me.” It read, and I was relieved because I was scared that my mother had set my father up. It was plausible thinking about all he did to her. 3
While I searched the document, I wondered what happened to Jenny’s child with my father.
I did not know if it was a boy or a girl, but the baby had somehow disappeared. Did
10/17
it somehow die? I guess I will have to lean on the journal to explain it.
I returned to the cabinet, and the
remaining files were duty files, but I
planned on taking everything with me to study them.
Jenny was a can of worms, and it was
apparent she was the target of the attack
at my house in Lucland.
Maybe the same person who sent her the anonymous threat letters might have been the one who decided to finish her off, or someone she might have angered.
I did not understand why they did it in my mother’s house and injured my mother too.
I also realised it was odd that Jenny was in my mother’s house, seeing the amount of bad blood between them.
Although my mother had a lot of
questions to answer, I doubted she would tell the truth or lead me right. She had so
many secrets that I could never tell the
difference between her truths and lies.
I checked the file and saw a letter
addressed to David.
“Dear David, as per your request, I have sent you eight hundred thousand Lakhs. I hope this is enough for you and your mate to settle wherever you like. Now that your half-brother is lord, please do not come to Lucland because he is searching to kill you. You have heard of his
reputation. It will be in your best interest to stay away. Do stay in touch and let me know if you need anything.” It read, and I was enraged.
This bitch had sent a letter to David
telling him that I was hunting him when I
did not know of his existence. 1
Why would she go to this length to keep David away?
I would have thought David was her son if
I did not know of Alissa. She even sent
him a lot of money to settle down with. 1
Hearing David had a wife and family, and seeing that he was moving about, made me suspect he might not be the culprit, but then again, he could have felt entitled and cheated and decided to snap.
Anything could have happened. Finding him and Jenny’s child, whether a man or woman, was necessary. It was imperative.
Babies don’t disappear. I knew something was terribly wrong with the picture.
We searched the office and found other things, but nothing led to her child.
“Let us take all the files, journals, photo
albums and anything that could give us clues to study. We will be staying at the Volkov duplex in Lucland. I asked the
workers there to prepare food and three rooms for us,” I said, and everyone was happy except for me.
I had come here for an answer, but it seemed I would be leaving the place more confused than I had come.
I wanted them to pack the files out of the house. While we were packing, five Kappas entered the office.
I figured they were the people that were supposed to be guarding the place.
When they saw us, they paid their
respects and were scared.
They had to be because they were not
doing their duty, and I had seen it first- hand.
They claimed they went to eat, and I told
them it was wrong for them to all leave
without attending to their work.
They handed me the keys, and I locked
the office and the door that led to the
corridor to keep intruders out.
We exited the house, and we all hopped into our jeeps respectively and drove to the Volkov duplex in Lucland, where my mother was staying before she moved back to the estate. 1
“You need to calm down, darling,” Tamia said, and I sighed.
“As long as you are with me, I am calm, green-eyes. There are so many
unanswered questions,” I confessed, and she placed her hand
wwwmy thigh.
“I am sure her journal would answer a few of those questions. You just have to
keep your mind open and watch your
temper. It seems Jenny was a shitty person,” she said, and I laughed because of how she put it. I was grateful to have Tamia beside me.
I rubbed her thigh gently.
“I love you, Tamia,” I confessed from the
bottom of my heart, and instead of an I- love-you-too response, my mate said something quite funny.
“Then you show me how much tonight, She replied, and I laughed.
Only Tamia could get away with that as the reply to I-love-you.
She was cute like that.
I stepped on the gas, eager to get her out of her clothes, taste her and bury myself in her.
I could never get enough of my green-
eyed beauty.
