100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Eighty-Nine…

At Syphiruz Mafia Headquarters

Nathan summoned Axel and Chantha to his office. He would like to hear an update regarding Phantomflake.

"How did she behave last night? Nothing suspicious happened?" Nathan asked them with a serious expression on his face.

Nathan leaned on his chair, rubbing his temples. He didn't get enough sleep last night, dark circles were visible under his eyes. He looked exhausted yet he decided to go there personally to get an update.

"She stayed in the prison cell without any complaints. She didn't do anything suspicious at all. Boss," Chantha spoke up first since she was the one who monitored Jane last night.

After hearing her report, Nathan diverted his gaze to Axel.

'She mentioned three major organizations. She said we should be wary of the King Stallion Mafia. The leader of this group is targeting you."

Nathan frowned in contemplation. He had never heard of that group. They might be working in shadows.

"Why? Did she tell you the reason?" he probed.

Axel shook his head in response. "She didn't elaborate on the information. However, she suggested meeting the Red Dragon Mafia and the Sawada Clan from Country J. She guaranteed that she could help us form an alliance with them."

Nathan was familiar with the Sawada Clan. He had been trying to contact the Leader of that clan but he failed to make a connection. Mr. Hiroshi was very cautious when engaging with another big organization like Syphiruz.

"Is she planning to negotiate her freedom with us by helping us form an alliance with these two big organizations?" Nathan assumed that Phantomflake had hidden motives.

"Supreme Leader, why don't you test her credibility? Let's find out if we can benefit from her. We have nothing to lose if we try." Chantha supported Jane's proposal. After spending time with Jane last night, she was convinced that Phantomflake was not wicked. It's her gut feeling telling her to trust Jane.

"I'll decide what to do next after getting the result." Nathan coldly responded. He had been waiting for Joker to bring the result of the DNA test. He wanted to know the truth.

If Phantomflake lied, then he could proceed to his next move– torturing her to death!

Knock! Knock!

Their conversation was interrupted by the knocking sound outside the door.

"Supreme Leader, it's me, Joker. May I enter?"

Nathan's eyes lit up when he heard Joker's voice behind the door.

"Come in!" He promptly responded.

Joker came from the medical facility, picking up the two results of the DNA test. It did not take long before Joker stepped into the room, greeting them politely. Then he handed the two envelopes over to Nathan.

Axel and Chantha exchanged glances with one another. They didn't have any idea about the content of that documents. Nathan only assigned this mission to Joker.

Axel, Chantha, and Joker stood there silently, observing Nathan as he opened the envelopes. His eyes scanned the document, reading the result. Suddenly, his expression shifted. His eyes widened, and he gripped the paper tightly. Shock quickly turned to fury as he crumpled the pages in his fist."

Thud!

He slammed his fists on the surface of the table, causing his subordinates to jolt from fright. Without saying a word, Nathan marched out of the room, heading to Jane's prison cell.

Chantha, Axel, and Joker didn't know what was happening. As their curiosity was piqued, they decided to follow their Supreme Leader.

Meanwhile, Jane was lying on her bed, strategizing her next moves when suddenly she was interrupted by the loud noise. Someone just kicked the door of the prison cell.

Her expression brightened up when she saw Nathan, standing at the door.

"Nate," she immediately got off the bed and stood up, greeting him.

"You are finally here. I–" Jane didn't finish her words as Nathan suddenly charged in her direction.

With a strong force, Nathan shoved her back, slamming her against the wall, his right hand strangling his neck. It happened so fast that Jane wasn't able to react.

Jane gasped for air as she felt Nathan's tight grip around her neck, his fingers digging into her flesh as he held her firmly in place.

She stared at Nathan. Although she felt suffocated, she chose not to fight back, analyzing the situation.

'Damn! What's wrong with him? Is he trying to kill me now? But why?'

Black Rose who was asleep on the other bed finally awakened by the noise.

"What the hell! Stay away from my sister!"

Black Rose stormed toward Nathan, to attack him and free Jane from his grasp. However, before she could touch Nathan, Chantha captured her, stopping her.

Axel and Joker didn't know what they should do. They could feel Nathan's fury. His jaw clenched with his eyes blazing in rage.

Jane's eyes already teared up from lack of oxygen and she felt like she was going to faint soon. Nathan was choking her to death for real.

"W-Why?" Jane managed to ask him in a low voice as she struggled to breathe.

At that certain moment, Nathan started to loosen his grip. Jane coughed several times as she gasped for air.

Nathan threw the crumpled papers toward Jane. "See for yourself! You can no longer fool. This is the proof that you lied to me. Monica's and Ethan's DNAs matched, including Veronica's DNA!"

Jane was taken aback for a moment. She crouched down to pick up the papers. And she couldn't believe it. The results matched!

'No way! This can't be true. Did Monica deceive me? Is Helena Ethan's biological mother? Not me. No. It doesn't make sense… because Helena's DNAs also matched Veronica. This means… the results are all fake!'

"Axel, bring her to the torture room NOW!" Nathan commanded Axel through his gritted teeth. He was mad at himself since he slightly doubted Monica just because of her words, only to find out that Phantomflake deceived him. She was probably playing mind games with him.

'I shouldn't have listened to her in the first place,' Nathan thought to himself, clenching his fist.

Axel stepped forward to restrain Jane. But this time, Jane refused to cooperate. She quickly grabbed Axel, twisting his arm while snatching his gun.

Chantha and Joker were alarmed when they witnessed this scene. In just a blink of an eye, Axel had become Phantomflake's hostage.

'Damn it. I didn't surrender to be killed by Nathan. I don't know where this has gone wrong.'

"Have you checked the authenticity of the results? What if someone tampered with the results?" Jane started to speculate as she couldn't accept the result.

Joker gulped hard when he heard that. Beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead as he darted his gaze back and forth between Nathan and Jane. He could feel the heavy tension in the atmosphere.

"Of course. I trust my men more than your words." Nathan hissed at her.

"And now, you are showing your true color. Do you think you can escape here unharmed?"

After saying that, Nathan picked up his gun and pointed it at Black Rose's head.

"Kill him. And I kill her," He threatened Jane.

There was a moment of deafening silence. Nathan and Jane stared at each other, not breaking their eye-to-eye contact.

"I'm not lying to you. I am also desperate to reveal the truth to you. So please don't be blinded by your hatred." She tried to convince Nathan.

"Call Dr. Stephen. I want him here. If you don't trust me then at least listen to your best friend. He can vouch for me." Jane had no other choice but to seek help from Stephen.

Nathan's expression turned darker when Stephen's name got involved.

'Does she also know Stephen? But how come?'
