Chapter 286 - Something bad happened (2/2)

”Is that your brother?” He asked.

”No... I am her future husband.” Kris sat by Lena's side and put a hand on her back.

”Fiance?”

”No...”

”Boyfriend?” Jackson asked more clearly.

”....” Kris glared at this man. He felt like this lawyer did not get enough pain. ”What is it to you?”

”You didn't you look like her brother... just more weird to say ”Hey is that your boyfriend?” And then in the end... it's a brother.” Jackson shrugged.

The temperature of the room dropped. Lena could feel that Kris was ready to snap this young man's head off.

”He's high... and injured.” Lena whispered to Kris.

Kris looked at Lena and then calmed down. She was right.... he did not need to get riled up by this man.

The nurse was finally done. She said that she will come back and check on him later. She also reminded Lena not to talk to him too much since the drug might be making him drowsy.

”I am sorry...” Jackson spoke as he looked into the white ceiling.

Lena could tell that his mind was wandering... but he was truly sorry about whatever he felt sorry for. She pulled a chair next to him and held his hand. Of course, she gave Kris the look first before doing so, just in case the man gets jealous.

But he didn't... the young lawyer was far from home. He needed some comfort.

”Hey... It's fine if the witness died... we can still win the case. I got you on my team remember, not a single case you lose yet, Jackson. Why don't you take a good rest... I'll make sure your parents know you're alright, okay?”

Jackson nodded and closed his eyes. He understood what Lena said even feeling the weight of the drugs coming in.

”Watch him okay? I am just going to call Angel back to report the situation to him.” Lena walked out and called Angel.

Kris watched Lena leave the room. He looked at the young lawyer and then stood up. He walked by the window and took out his cellphone.

”Tell me what happened?” Kris demanded from the call.

”Boss....” There was a short silence before the man on the other side answered again. ”Sorry, just had to go somewhere private.”

”Ok.”

”The witness was the person who stole the information from LUX and leaked it out. He was from the IT team. Jackson made him a good deal for him to testify that he did steal the information and sell it for a price.”

”And he's dead now?”

”Yes... because he was from LUX, Jackson and his private security team had him on watch.” The man replied.

”How many dead?”

”3 guards dead, 2 injured. And there is Jackson too.”

”And Lena?” Kris asked.

”I don't believe she is in danger... I think whoever it was.. just wanted to get rid of the witness.”

”I understand.”

”Boss.... there is one thing.” The man spoke. ”The bomb.. its signature... I know who made it.”

”Who?!”

”I am certain that this was made by.... Agent 301... Ex Agent.”

”....” Kris looked at the door knowing that Lena was not back yet and then at Jackson, who was asleep on the bed. ”Becca...”
