The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 555

Chapter 555: THE SECRET BOOK

Jasmine swallowed heavily.

"Her name is... Mari... Marie." She finally managed.

Otto just stared at her, which further made her nervous.

She was terrified of this man.

He looked like he was ready to throw a tantrum any minute.

"Marie?" He rose a brow. "A witch?"

Jasmine nodded in delight as his eyes lit with a faint of recognition.

"Yes her." Jasmine said breathing a sigh of relief.

"The same one who had a sister who was a different variant of a witch?" He asked.

Jasmine nodded. "Yes Eleanor. The exact same one. She is the one."

"Well that’s a bit too bad for you." He said.

Jasmine frowned.

"You know why?" He requested with a mean grin on his face.

Jasmine shook her head.

She was now very much confused.

"Because the stupid bitch stole from ME! And she owes me a goddamn amount of money!" He explodes.

Jasmine was taken aback so much she flinched.

"If she sent you here, then she set you up. I don’t ever want to see that fucking cunt! And you either better fucking pay for it or get the hell out!!!" He roared.

Jasmine was shocked.

This was a new revelation to her.

But Marie had said it.

He was going to be difficult.

But she hasn’t expected him to be this difficult.

She cleared her throat as she began to make an attempt to clear the air. "I am so sorry. Please accept my apologies for whatever she may have done to you. If I had the money I would have paid. But I have no knowledge of this and-

"I said GET OUT!" He screamed as he swung a porcelain bowl against the wall.

Jasmine screamed and jumped in fright.

"Otto calm down!" Hildegard said in alarm as she wisely retracted her steps away from him.

Jasmine was now absolutely terrified.

This was her only chance to find out about her mother.

Her only lead.

She couldn’t just give up.

"The scroll in your hands I’ve seen the language before!"

He came to abrupt stop and the stick that he had picked remained hanging mid air.

Jasmine knew she had gotten his attention again.

She quickly took advantage of it and hoped that it don’t backfire on her the same way the first time had.

She rose her hand up in defense as she busied her free hand through the old bag that had been hanging on her shoulder.

"Please wait." She said as she fervently searched through.

She was scared to take her eyes off him before her flung something else at her.

"Where is it?" She whispered to herself.

She kept on fishing through the bag while her eyes frequently flashed from his face down to view the contents of the bag.

"If you have something show it to him now." Hildegard whispered to her an uneasy smile on her face.

Finally she found it!

"Yes!" She said and then she held the secret book she had found in Xaden’s mother’s astronomy room.

She very slowly walked up to him.

He set his hand down and the stick he had been holding came tumbling down to the ground.

Once she was a few inches away from him, she handed him the book.

He seemed uncertain at first, before snatching it.

Jasmine retracted her steps as she watched him unbind the rope around the book.

He finally opened it and his eyes gazed through it.

Then she saw him quickly flip pages one after the other.

"Where did you get this?" He asked.

"Somewhere private. I won’t tell you until you agree to help me." Jasmine said boldly.

He eyed her cautiously.

"You should he scared of me. Do you know what I am?" He asked.

What did he mean by did she know what he was?

"I don’t." Jasmine replied in all honesty. "But I am scared of you. Yet that doesn’t mean I won’t make a deal with you."

She had no idea where this boldness was coming from.

The ability to face a man she has her insides trembling in fear.

"I can kick you out of here and still keep the book." He said point blank.

"And I would report to the Queen." Jasmine said cunningly. "Lady Hildegard here is proof on how much the Queen likes me."

Jasmine had absolutely NO idea where this strain of confidence was coming from.

But she had to keep it coming.

Hildegard quickly jumped to her defense. "She is right."

Otto looked at Jasmine and she refused to break contact.

She held his gaze until he let go.
