"It's okay," Jack replied without looking at the girl. He thought that Annelisse could understand the reason.However, Annelisse couldn't leave it at that so she asked again with a bit of force to get Jack's answer, "Come on, tell me what the reason is!"Jack let out a long sigh. Really if the girl who asked was not Annelisse Goldman who was a girl he liked, he would not have wanted to sit with her for a long time let alone answer all the questions that sometimes bothered him a bit.So, Jack replied, "Anne, we just ate here. It's uncomfortable to see them come into this room."Annelisse thought that it wasn't necessary."Why did you feel uncomfortable?" Annelisse still demanded further explanation.Jack very patiently replied, "Because it's like letting them know what we're doing."Annelisse raised her right eyebrow, "We're doing nothing but eating, Jack. What are you doing?""I don't get it," Annelisse continued.Jack smiled, "Hm, you're right we are eating but... did you forget that
"No, young master. I did not tell this to Master Hugh."Gideon's answer really did make the young man look extremely relieved.However, if only he had been a little smarter then Gideon wouldn't even need to know about it and he wouldn't need to feel such anxiety either.But, he did not think it through so he did things that he should not have done such as disappearing from the flower shop.That clearly made Gideon move faster to find her. She should have arranged her meeting with Garric more carefully and secretly.He also thought that he shouldn't have met Garric at Luxen Restaurant.Because of that, more people would know about her meeting with Garric which was not recognized by the Morland family.In fact, not only did the restaurant staff know about it but Annelisse was also the one who had to lie to cover up what she was doing."Young Master, is there anything you need?" Gideon asked in a worried tone.Jack quickly shook his head and decided to return to the Morland family reside
Garric was suddenly reminded of his childhood when he was still allowed to visit the Morland family mansion.At that time he was still very small, still around 5 years old. He had an age difference of more than 3 years with Jack Morland.However, at that time he did not have the slightest hatred for his cousin. He just wanted to always look after his little brother.However, everything changed when he felt Hugh Morland was being unfair to him.He let out a long sigh when he remembered that painful incident."Garric, you and Jack are different after all. Jack is my real grandson and you are not so ... don't you dare come near my grandson and you better stay away from him," Hugh said at that time.Little Jack cried and wailed when he was separated from Garric. But Hugh didn't care at all and chose to keep him separated from Jack.Garric, who had now grown up and was currently alone on top of his family's house, was enjoying the wind while trying to remain a strong young man."He must ha
However, she certainly didn't want to make her brother overthink and worry. She also did not want her parents to find out about the matter so she chose to hide it even though it was very difficult."Brother, you don't need to worry about this. It's just a matter that is still related to our relationship so you don't have to think about it seriously," Annelisse explained without daring to look into her brother's eyes.However, it seemed that Eric was not paying attention to her at the time so he did not know that his younger sister was very nervous."Oh, then you should be able to finish it as soon as possible. Remember, Anne. After all, every family member in this family must think of our family's good name, you know that right?" Annelisse nodded her head and Eric continued, "You already know that I made our family's reputation a little bad because of my mistake, so I don't want you to make the same mistake that I did."To lighten the mood, Annelisse chose to first softly respond to
But Jack Morland certainly didn't have time to think about his ex-girlfriend. He thought that there's no benefit to think about Lily.So, he chose to put all his suspicions of Lily aside and immediately walked back to the room that would be the place for his exam.However, this time he didn't run into anyone and was able to sit comfortably in his seat while waiting for his lecturer.He also could be relax because there is no guard around him.He noticed his surroundings and the atmosphere looked different than the last time he went to class. Usually the students were talking about him or looking at him with questioning eyes. But, now they were more indifferent and didn't really stare at Jack openly. The young man became more comfortable there.After about 5 minutes of waiting for the lecturer's arrival, the door opened and in walked a middle-aged professor who was giving them an exam."Jack, you can definitely do this and get it over with so you can focus more on the company," he mu
Darryl closed his eyes for a few seconds, "Guys, I did make a big mistake by making that bet with you. I was also angry when Jack hid his true identity and made us look like fools."He then opened his eyes and looked at his two best friends. "I even thought about shaming him for rejecting us as his friends again, but ... I've been thinking a lot lately," Darryl continued.Steven began to look displeased at his best friend's words.The young man really couldn't accept what Darryl was about to say."Stop it, Darryl! I know what you're trying to say and you better not say it because I really can't take it," Steven warned in a serious tone.Darryl sighed softly, "Sorry, Stev. I have to say it because I can't keep it all to myself and I don't want you guys to do anything bad to Jack either."Mark turned and gave his best friend an angry look, "Bad thing? What do you mean we're going to do bad things to him?""You act like a saint who never does anything wrong, Darryl. In fact, you were th
Darryl eventually struggled to accept the results of his mistakes.He not only lost friends but also many other things such as losing his own identity.He even lost his family's trust and they never believed in his ability anymore because he had made his family disappointed with him. His selfishness blinded his heart and made him take the wrong steps.However, he was determined to make things right and will still come to the event that his friends have arranged.On the other hand, Jack, who already knew about his two friends' plans from Darryl, would still give them a small lesson.After he finished his exams for the day, George, who greeted him with a smile since no bad incidents had happened that day, asked, "How was your day at college, Young Master?"Jack saw the joy in the personal bodyguard's eyes and he smiled back, "If you ask about my exams then I'll be happy to answer if it's certain that everything went well but ...."George's smile instantly disappeared from his face as h
Garric Morland immediately turned his gaze around and gave his mother a big smile."Mom, I know you're worried about me but trust me that Jack really will contact me. It's only a matter of time," Garric tried to assure his mother that he would not fail in their family mission.Besides, he never doubted his ability to influence people. He was very incredible doing that and never failed to make other people trust him.Jean smiled back and rubbed her favorite son's arm, "Oh, of course. My son is very good and I have every confidence that you can accomplish the task you have been given."Garric nodded and breathed a sigh of relief that his mother still believed in him.In fact, he knew that his mother never wanted to burden him with various tasks related to his father's side of the family.However, he as a son of course wanted to make his mother feel proud to have him so he was determined to truly realize his family's wishes.Shortly after, Harold Morland caught up with the two family mem
