Husband you've abandoned me. Fine, I'll focus on raising my son - Chapter 304: A waste of genes

Chapter 304: A waste of genes

KOLTON’S POV

I still wasn’t sure how Jasmine had done it. To my knowledge before Edward was caught and arrested he had told me Keith was so obsessed with Jasmine. He took her to his new estate and essentially holding her hostage there. He was also making plans to stop their divorce entirely.

They’ve been married for nine years now and had no romantic feelings for her. This sudden shift has quite literally derailed my entire plan. I thought even an idiot like Diana could handle things. I should have used someone smarter.

I brought my hands to my head. No point crying over split milk now.

My phone then rang in my pockets pulling me out of my thoughts. I took it out and answered.

“Uh Sir, Marco and Anthony tried to go in the room of sylvia.” One of my men at the residence told me.

.

“Aren’t you watching them? What the hell?” I asked him feeling agitated.

“I apologoze sir, we–,” he started.

“–Put them in the basement I’ll talk to them when I get there,” I told the man.

I sighed what were those two ding? I didn’t even have to guess, i already know it Anthony who is responsible for this. Probabaly tryimg to put ideas in Marco’s mind. I chuckled I was almost amused by that boys persistance but soon he would realize why

I finished work for the day and clocked off at the office. Now was to make the hour drive to Redwood where my home was. Only a few days remained until the ransom had to be paid up.

Everything was in place right now. Diana was dead. Keith still didn’t suspect me. Edward was my fall guy. I had always planned from the moment I started working with him that things had gone wrong then he would be the one take the blame and make everything to point to him.

Now i just had to receive the company and it would all be over. For a last minute plan I was proud of myself.

As soon as I arrived at my estate, I went down to the basement where the boys were being held. I found them seated by the mat/bed in the room.

I started Marco. “…are you an idiot? I’ve trained you well you should know better than to listen to Anthony,” I told him.

“Yes, dad,” he answered.

My eyes narrowed as stared into his eyes that were similar to mine. It brought back memories of the training I had him do when he was younger. I had him wear blue contacts and dyed his hair black as early as 5 years old. He had to learn to put on an act for Keith so I had start him early.

I had him trained to call his his uncle, father.

The sooner he got used to wearing the contacts the easier it was for him to not only act like he was Keith’s son but also for him to believe it himself.

Anytime he didn’t do as I said he would be punished and sent down here. That quickly taught him to fear me and to obey me.

Luckily for me he didn’t inherit his mothers stupidity. He listened quite well to my instructions and his acting skills were spot on.

My eyes then narrowed as I continued staring at him.

You’re useless to me now i thought to myself. The whole point of your existence was to be one the Acland heir. what am I supposed to do with you? I literally had you for nothing at the end of the day. And with that useless woman on top of that. What a mess.

Do I get rid of you too? Or do I just keep you around?

My eyes widened in surprise when Anthony suddenly came between Marco and I. He had a fire I realized he was trying to protect Marco

“What are you doing you idiot?!” I yelled as i raised my arm and shoved Anthony out of the way.

He’s just like his mother. Busy causing trouble, ruining my plans.

I finished off reprimanding them and I left the basement and made to go to my room. I had dinner and contemplated my next steps.

******

The following I went to work as usual. I returned in the evening. I still hqadn’t received any updates from Keith. He was really going to wait until the last second before he signed off the company?

perhaps he wanted to trick me? I wouldn’t put it past him to try. He wont be able to though. if he even tries anything he won’t see that boy again. His only heir.

As soon as I arrived home.

“Sir, the boys have escaped from the basement,” he informed me in a panic.

“What?!” I said in disbelief as I got up from my seat. “What do you mean?”

“They were seen by a guard running across the yard and have left the property by climbing up the buch walls, sir.”

“How? Did you leave the door unlocked?”

“No, sir. it was locked,” he quickly said. “They didn’t leave through the door.”

“How is that possible are you Waht are you saying they climbed out the window?” I asked hysterically. How else could they have escaped if not through the door. The windows were too high to escape from.

I left my room with him as we headed for the mansion entrance. “Where is he now?”

“They were seen running in the field outside the property going down hill, sir,” he informed me.

It must be that Anthony who was responsible for this whole plan. I though to myself. He must be the one putting all kind of thoughts in Marco’s head. Marco always listened to me. I suppose he wanted a way out. Today he was going to find out he made a mistake.

I let out a tired sigh as I contemplated what to do.

“Prepare Get me my guns,” I ordered another one of my men in a hallway on the way and he quickly walked off to carry out my order.

“We can’t let them get to other houses and call for help. They can’t have gone far. I want as many men as possible stationed nearby and around all the neighboring homes. We have to catch them before they signal for help.

As I exited the the house and I was met with a car waiting for me. I got in and found I had requested already in the passger seat. Two other guards got in the car with me.

Immeditately, it drove out as we began searching for the boys.

Once we reached the bushes we looked around again as we panted loudly. The wall was now in clear view. After a temporary pause we sprinted off again. We were almost there I thought to myself as we ran through the estate yard passing bushes and trees.

“Hey! Who’s that!” I heard a loud voice say from near by as we ran past a bush. My eyes widened as I looked back to find a figure standing by the bush. I was surprised that there was someone standing behind the bush.

“Come back here!” The voice said. I felt a light shine on Marco and I.

“Oh shoot! Someone’s seen us!” Marco said as we sprinted.

“Just keep running,” I told him but I soon heard the footsteps start to follow after us. This wasn’t good my plan for us to escape without being caught had failed.

“I need backup the kids have escaped,” I heard the man say behind us.

“Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!” I yelled in a panic to Marco as we reached the wall. We climbed up the bushes of the wall. They were full of thorns and pierced my fleshed with each desperate hold onto the bush as I climbed up. But I ignored it.

As soon as I reached the top I jumped down and on to the other side. My body made a loud thud as I hit the ground. I winced loudly as I looked down at me hands and legs. It was too dark to see but they were filled Moments later

“Help, we need to get help now!” I told Marco.

It was about a half an hour later when I arrived at the Carrington boys’ apartment building. It had only been 3 hours since she left my estate she had to be here.

I entered the building with my men and walked up to the reception.

“Good afternoon, sir,” I greeted her.

“I’m looking for a resident called Louis Carrington who lives here, I need to see him,” I told her.
