Chapter 668: Heartbreak
"He said I deserve to have it after what I went through — ah!!"
Just as Axel fixed the rearview mirror, he immediately caught a person in the backseat, causing him to scream his lungs out. Out of instinct, Axel reached for the small bag that was slipped between the driver’s seat and door and pointed a pistol at the person on the back as soon as he got it.
Moose, on the other hand, flinched when a scream suddenly escaped Axel’s mouth. After a second, Axel was already holding a pistol while pointing it at the backseat. He furrowed his brows and looked back to see what caused Axel to act like this. His face twitched as soon as his eyes landed on the person in the back seat.
"The hell are you doing here?" Moose asked, assessing Joker who was melting in the backseat while petting a cat on his lap.
"Yes, just kill me," said Joker lifelessly, closing his eyes as he accepted his fate. "I don’t think I can live for another second anymore. What’s the point of living when your beloved cheated on you and is now married to another man?"
Moose’s face twitched at the dramatic sentiments coming from Joker. The latter’s complexion was pale and the bags under his eyes were darker than they’d ever been. Joker was petting a cat on his lap, and even that was the only indication he was still alive.
"Man..." Moose sighed as he raised a hand, planting it on top of Axel’s pistol, and pushing it down gently. "It’s okay, man. I know this guy."
Axel warily lowered the gun, darting his eyes between Moose and the person in the backseat. "You know him?"
"How I wish I didn’t, but yeah. I know him." Moose sighed for the second time, looking back at the back seat. He assessed Joker for a while, running his tongue across his inner cheek. "Just don’t mind him. Let’s go."
