"Jack!" Annelisse called again when she saw Jack looking unfocused.Jack smiled at the girl, "Okay, it looks like I can't possibly hide this from you. Besides, I'm in your house right now and I'm obligated to explain everything to you."Annelisse Goldman also felt that the young man's problem was no small one.Jack seemed to be hiding something, or perhaps even depressed about what he had been thinking.Not wanting to make the young man think about all of his own problems and stress himself out about it, Annelisse tried to make the young man feel comfortable telling her by saying, "We were just close. But believe me ... what you tell me is impossible for anyone else to know."Jack interpreted this to mean that the girl would always keep whatever she told him a secret.Of course, Jack could easily trust this girl, because she was the only person who had never betrayed him or kept a secret from him.Annelisse was the kind of girl who always said what's on her mind and tells him directly
After being ordered by Gideon, the bodyguards led by Alex immediately headed to the street around the Goldman family home.Meanwhile, Gideon himself immediately went to Mr. Hugh to convey what Young Master Morland had ordered.At that moment, Hugh Morland was relaxing in his private room and did not seem bothered when his confidant entered his office after obtaining permission from him."What's wrong, Gideon? Why do you look so anxious? Did something happen? Is this related to my grandson?" Hugh asked with a furrowed brow as he suddenly had a bad feeling about his grandson.Gideon immediately spoke about it very carefully, "The young master previously ordered George to check all the areas around the Goldman family home. He suspected that there were people following him."Hugh, who was still opening the book he had just read, quickly closed the book. The old man immediately looked at Gideon with a look that wanted him to continue."Sir, George found two cars with a number of bodyguards
At first Jack felt that what Annelisse said was just a theory.However, when he really understood it then he changed his mind."You're right, Anne. They didn't really want to see me at first but since grandfather suddenly tightened the guard around me, they are suddenly very eager to see me."Jack sighed, "That's also what made Garric finally desperate to meet me on campus."He then paused for a few moments and realized that it happened to him too."I experienced it myself. Grandfather seemed so very restrictive and even tried to keep me away from them. However, in reality I was not silent and obedient to my grandfather's orders. What he did made me so curious that I ended up finding out for myself," Jack explained.Oh, he really felt very, very stupid and it was the first time he regretted all the things he had done.Oh, he was dubbed by some as an outstanding young man. In fact, many of the company staff admired his abilities.According to Jack, the incident where he was trapped by
Jack Morland immediately put on a polite smile and returned the sad gaze of the woman who had given birth to the girl he liked.He suddenly felt guilty again for making his host sad just because he had not found his appetite back, which had suddenly disappeared. "Oh, Madam. You misunderstood. I was just in shock and couldn't decide which dish to try first because they all looked so delicious," Jack replied.Actually, Jack wasn't lying at all and what he said was the truth.The food Mary Goldman had cooked looked so appetizing and he even found it very eye-catching.The food was even suitable to be sold in a restaurant because it looked that delicious."Hey, young man. I know you're trying to be polite. But ...."Mary's face immediately looked sad and Jack couldn't bear it.The young man quickly said, "Mrs. Goldman, I will eat it right away and you don't have to worry because I will eat all the food even though I am already full."What Jack said immediately made the other three Goldma
"Young Master, everyone is in their respective positions as you instructed earlier. They are just waiting for your next order," Rey replied.The personal bodyguard of Garric Morland also added, "You will not fail this time, Young Master. I'm sure you'll manage to talk to Jack Morland again."Garric just nodded and did not respond to anything else because he was actually starting to feel unsure if his plan would run smoothly.Seeing how Jack had been avoiding him for several days and even knowing that his personal bodyguards were checking around the Goldman family home, it was safe to guess that the young man was starting to move cautiously.It was a sign that Jack truly believed in his grandfather and no longer trusted him.But even so, he still had a chance to shake the young man's trust."Young Master, what are your next orders?" Rey asked with great enthusiasm."Send two of your men to see what the situation is around the Goldman family home," Garric said in a very thick commanding
"I will go to him and tell him that I will never trust them again," Jack said in a very confident tone.He was very sure that he would make their family surrender to chase him.Annelisse was stunned, "Jack, are you sure about this?" She did not think that Jack would decide to do that. According to her, his decision was very dangerous to himself and also to Jack's family."Please, when you decide to go back to see them, it means you're giving them hope. It's the same as giving them a chance to influence you again," the girl continued with a worried look at her new lover.She wouldn't let him to make mistakes related to his actions. Jack looked back at the girl and tried to calm her down, "Anne, I know you're worried about me because you're afraid I'll trust them again. But ... you should know that I really have trusted my grandfather 100% so you have nothing to worry about."Annelisse bit her lower lip. She wasn't unsure of Jack's trustworthiness. She was just afraid that Jack would
Jack could only sigh tiredly and disappointedly as it turned out that neither of the two people he trusted believed in him.Annelisse Goldman also didn't trust him before and seemed to doubt him. Now it was George Cleve's turn who, like Annelisse, seemed to doubt his loyalty to his grandfather.Seeing this, Jack could only say, "Oh, it seems that no one really believes in me. Well, it doesn't matter and I just have to prove that I can really be trusted."George swallowed nervously and now felt very guilty for Jack.He could sense the disappointment his young master was feeling but it was too late for him to correct his words.He knew that Jack was already disappointed and he couldn't change it. Still, he said, "But ... I am quite sure that you could not possibly want to make Mr. Hugh sad."Jack smiled faintly but did not respond to his personal bodyguard's words.He remained silent as he waited for his car to arrive at the location where Garric was waiting for him.This time it was st
Jack was really irritated by the laughter and now he was even preparing to punch Garric in the face.However, he suddenly restrained himself from smashing the young man's face.It was also immediately noticed by Garric, "Why didn't you do it? Have you never hit anyone before? Or do you really not know how to hit people?"Garric shook his head. He didn't know too much about his distant cousin but what he did know in recent times was that Jack Morland had become one of the most talked about young men in his town.Ocean Hill was not a very small town but it could easily spread like wildfire. The news of a young heir who was favored by his grandfather and protected in such a way was no secret.Jack Morland was so famous everywhere that even he knew that after he announced to the world that he was the sole heir of the Morland family, Jack had become a celebrity who was talked about everywhere.Almost everyone knew about him and knew at least a few things about the young heir who was also th
