Chapter 766 - Seven Hundred And Sixty-six: Our Doors Are Open For You

The third point of view:

Isabella didn\'t trust Jennifer behind her especially when she had a gun with her. Just because circumstances forced them to work together doesn\'t mean they were friends now. Jennifer still pretty much hates Reina - she set her up in an accident -?and what better way to have revenge on Reina than to end her.

Jennifer didn\'t trust Isabella. She was Reina\'s daughter and would want to hurt her for trying to hurt her chosen mother, Reina. Even while she had been engaged to her father, Niklaus in the past, Isabella never liked her. She only tolerated her.

Suddenly a boom came from downstairs and they all shook unsteadily on their feet, smoke slowly filling the room.

"We can\'t stay here any longer with the fire increasing. Also, what if it triggers the rest of the bomb and then, we\'re good as dead," Neon hoped to talk some sense into them.

"Fine, I\'ll go with Jennifer and then you go with Neon. That way if she does something to me, you\'re free to harm Neon as well,"

Pedro suggested.

That was unfair, Isabella knew she could never harm Neon, however, there was one thing she could think of and that was keeping Neon away from Jennifer forever. She knew how crazy that drove Jennifer and even as they agreed to that suggestion, Jennifer could see the threat in her gaze.

Touch Pedro and your son is gone forever. At Least both of them had someone they cherished.

Pedro was the first to leave through the window carefully and then grabbed onto the rope while Jennifer followed slowly and soon the helicopter dropped them carefully on the floor, meters away from the burning house.

However, as soon as Jennifer\'s feet touched the ground, riffles upon riffles were pointed at her and she quickly grabbed a hold of Pedro from behind, placing her own gun on the head.

"Don\'t shoot," Pedro commanded them, his hands raised in the air to show her he was defenseless.

It didn\'t take even a minute for Isabella and Neon to land and her gaze hardened at the scene.

"Let him go, Jennifer," Isabella said in a cool tone, "You know that you can\'t win against us,"

However, Jennifer simply pressed the gun closer to Pedro\'s temple yet pleaded, "I know what I did to Reina was bad but I\'ve changed now and I just want a simple life with my son, Neon. You just have to let us go,"

But Isabella laughed, "Did you hear her, Neon? Your crazy mother wants to live a quiet life with you," She turned to him, asking, "What do you say to that?"

"Yes, I would," Neon said to Isabella\'s shock.

Isabella looked shocked, as if Neon had broken her trust or something. Clearly, she had not expected that. Isabella thought Neon would be on her side.

"What did you just say?" Isabella was deeply offended.

"I said I would go with her and let\'s not deny it, we always knew a day like this would come. No matter how much you guys wanted it, I\'m not Spencer material. Moreover, I think my mother would get better if I\'m with her. Her disease is psychological and she wants me by her side, I would do just that. Sometimes love is just the right contact with a person and my mother\'s been denied that for long, " Neon explained.

"Neon...." a soft gasp left Jennifer\'s mouth, touched by her son\'s words.

Neon took Isabella\'s hand in his and closed it with his other slightly larger palm, "I really appreciate what you have done so far for me, Isabella. You rescued me when I was in the deepest water..." His words stirred up the memories of that day when they were younger, she and Pedro had gone to Jennifer\'s place to rescue him from the hands of his mother who lost it after the break-up.

Neon went on," I would never forget your help. However, I\'m no longer that little, helpless boy that was abused by his mother because he couldn\'t keep up with her standards of learning. I\'m smarter, older, taller, and stronger now. I know what\'s good and wrong and I can definitely fend for myself. So you don\'t have to worry about me, I\'ve grown up and old enough to deal with my mother\'s problems. I can deal with her,"

Isabella didn\'t say a word even after some minutes passed and Neon was beginning to think that his words had fallen on deaf ears when she suddenly pulled him forward and engulfed him in a tight hug.

"I\'m going to miss you," Isabella confessed, tightening the hug.

"I would too," Neon said.

Seeing that gesture, the others lowered their weapon and it was left for Jennifer who still had a tight hold on Pedro.

Jennifer was battling with the demons in her head. The voices were telling her not to trust them, all they have ever done was to abandon her. However, her son has agreed to come with her, doesn\'t that count as a gesture of trust?

Slowly, Jennifer lowered her weapon and Pedro released the breath he had been holding in. That was close. Slowly yet cautiously, he backed away from Jennifer who watched him with intensity the way a predator would around his prey.

Reluctantly, Isabella released Neon who then walked over to her mother who was fidgeting with the gun in her hand. This was the first time she was trusting her enemies and it made her feel vulnerable.

The first thing Neon did as soon as he came near his mother was to receive her gun and toss it as far away as possible from her. He then took her hand and intertwined it together as they began to leave.

However, Isabella shouted from behind, "You do know it doesn\'t matter, you, not being a Spencer. You\'re unique the way you are Neon and perhaps, even better than us,"

Neon turned, "I know," He was smug.

"Our doors are always open for you, Neon," Isabella offered him.

"Thank you,"
