Chapter 141
It was late at night, Cliare was finally able to sleep last night after calling Jack. She was able to go to work with a sense of calm. However, when she arrived at King Pizza, she began to think about one important thing that she had never thought about before.Claire was no longer thinking about the reunion, but instead she was thinking about another problem that was no less big.Until the break time came, Claire still felt that she had to do something to solve the problem."I think I really need to see her. I don't want to ruin their relationship." Claire stood up from her chair. She left her room to go somewhere.She asked Catherine to keep an eye on the shop during the break until she returned."I'll be back soon," Claire replied when Catherine asked how long she would be gone. She did not answer Catherine's question about where she was going.Claire came out of King Pizza with mixed feelings. She was excited because for the first time tonight she would meet and talk with her old

Audrey's heart raced as she realized that she had made a big mistake. Her face looked very complicated as she thought hard to answer Claire's question.It was actually not a difficult question. Audrey knew exactly what the answer was. However, sometimes there were things that could not be said even if they were true.'How could I have forgotten that Young Master's identity was kept secret? What a fool I am!' Audrey cursed to herself. She certainly didn't want to be an untrustworthy person. Jack had already trusted her, she must not divulge the Young Master's secret.Besides, Audrey was sure that Jack had his own reasons for his decision to hide his identity, not showing his true self to everyone."When the time comes, Young Master will definitely announce it as well. But here I am speaking presumptuously!" Audrey added to herself."Audrey, why are you bringing up Young Master? Are you referring to Young Master Roodenburg? I'm not talking about him, I'm talking about Jack, the guy who

In a simple house, a man stood at the door with a neat and charming appearance. He is waiting for someone to open the door. If you look closely, there is a red rose tucked in his hand behind him.Someone appears to be pressing the doorknob from inside. Then a beautiful woman emerged from the door."Jack!" The woman came out and hugged Jack tightly.That's right, Jack was indeed in front of Claire's house. He was ready to accompany Claire to her high school reunion at Steakhouse Prime.Seeing a beautiful rose in Jack's hand, Claire asked innocently, "You brought flowers? Who is this for? Is it for dad?"It was not unusual for Claire to ask this question because Jack never once came to her house with flowers. Jack did visit her often. He also often brought her food and other gifts, but not flowers."Jack?" Claire called out to Jack who was staring at her almost unblinkingly.Claire's appearance was different. She looks stunning in a simple black dress. Her pure white skin becomes cleare

Jack let out a long breath. It was impossible for him to tell Claire about the attack and ambush he had set on Donald Pasmod and his men. He didn't want to pollute Claire's mind with such things.Jack started the car engine and drove to Steakhouse Prime. There was no sound in the car for a while. Both he and Claire were silent in an uncomfortable atmosphere.If Jack was silent thinking of the right answer, Claire was silent waiting for that answer."Actually, I finished something I was supposed to finish," Jack replied then."What was it? Did someone misbehave with you? Did you get hurt?" Claire examined Jack's body carefully."N-no, Claire. I'm fine. Never mind, why talk about yesterday, let's talk about your school reunion."Sensing that Jack didn't want to talk about what happened yesterday, Claire tried to suppress her curiosity. It was probably something personal and shouldn't be told to others.'Who am I? I'm just Jack's best friend. I should act like a friend. The important thi

"Don't be surprised. It's perfectly natural since I'm a young master." Jack answered Claire's question with a smile.Jack was clearly telling the truth. However, of course Claire didn't believe his words. To Claire, Jack was a simple man who was far from rich.Therefore, Claire said, "You're always joking. As far as I remember, I've never heard a restaurant waiter call a male customer young master. Even if there was, it was because the person being called was from a conglomerate family. It feels strange to hear them call you young master.""Even if I explain it, you won't believe it."Claire continued, "It's even stranger because it's like they don't see me. They didn't call out or greet me because they were too focused on welcoming you, as if you were an important and influential person. Is it because the suit you rented is too nice? They think you come from a high-class family.""They didn't greet you because you were silent. I'm the only one talking. Never mind Claire, don't burden

"Of course," Jack replied firmly. "That's the truth," he continued.Claire's face became as pale as paper. She looked back to see the doorman. Her chest was pounding with worry that Jack's words could be heard by someone else."Jack, don't talk carelessly. Do you think the Roodenburg family will keep quiet if someone else claims to be Young Master Roodenburg?"Claire held both of Jack's arms before looking at him intently. "Look, even if Young Master Roodenburg's face is unknown to the public right now, don't ever refer to yourself as him. The two of you are very different, like earth and sky. You should know that your actions could jeopardize your safety. It's still lucky if they report you to the police, then you'll be arrested and jailed. But what if they move on their own, kidnap and eliminate you?""Don't think about it too much, Claire. I-""Please," Claire interrupted Jack. She shook her head as she continued, "Don't talk like that anymore. I don't want anything bad to happen t

Jeremy walked around Claire and Jack. "It's surprising that you finally came too, Claire. It doesn't matter if you're late. Your arrival at this reunion alone is history. All the times the reunion was held, you never came with all kinds of excuses." Jeremy stopped in front of Claire. "As your friend, I am relieved to know that you are alive and beautiful. Your appearance is very impressive. There's a good improvement from the appearance of the teenage Claire at school back then. But, to be honest, your appearance is still far below that of my girlfriend." He pointed at the woman beside him. "Oh yeah, this is my girlfriend, Jessie Moores. She is a young entrepreneur in the biometrics field. If you need access control, CCTV, fingerprinting, or anything like that, you can contact my girlfriend. She will definitely send her employees to explain things in more detail. My girlfriend is really amazing." Then, unprompted, Jeremy explained, "At such a young age, my girlfriend already has her

Jeremy became even more excited when he saw Claire's pale face, which was like seeing a ghost. That meant they were covering up something bad.'You won't be able to run away from me!' Jeremy smiled slyly."Actually, my title is-" Jack stopped his sentence because behind the desk, Claire was holding his hand, trying to prevent him from speaking.Seeing Jack turn his head towards Claire, Jeremy was even more eager to urge Jack to tell the truth."No problem Jack, you can say it. No need to feel discouraged or embarrassed. Work is still work. Real men are those who are willing to work. How are you going to support Claire when you get married if you don't have a job? That's why any job is so valuable."Claire's temples twitched at Jeremy's words, which seemed the wisest. But her ex only meant to patronize Jack.'Does he think my Jack is stupid?' Claire hissed inwardly with her hands clenched under the table."Actually, my job is too complicated to explain. Essentially, I have to make sure

To that leading question, Claire replied with a cold face and voice, "Everyone in Rhineland knows about it."'Especially Mr. Jack! No one knows Young Master Roodenburg better than he himself.' Silently, the manservant replied as well. His temples hadn't stopped twitching from witnessing such obvious ridiculousness."He's a very great young man. It's a pity I don't know which Young Master Roodenburg is among the other invited guests. Even after pouring in that much money, he didn't show himself in front of everyone," Jeremy's girlfriend said with admiration."But Claire," Jeremy took a pause after surprising Claire with his sudden call. "Talking about the charity event at Greenroad Villa, I was reminded of one thing.""What is it, darling?" Jeremy's girlfriend gave another lure. "Somehow Jack's face reminded me of someone at the event. Take another look at Jack's face, darling. Doesn't he look a lot like the man who played the piano on stage? The guests were skeptical of his abilities

Before Claire could finish the conjecture in her heart, Jeremy had made an announcement."This man is a pizza delivery boy!!!"Suddenly what Jeremy said made Claire's classmates whisper. They were very surprised because Jack's appearance didn't look like someone from the lower class. On the contrary, what Jack was wearing looked very classy as it was branded items with exorbitant prices."Jeremy, that's impossible. A pizza delivery boy wouldn't be able to afford such a nice suit and shoes. Especially if we look at the watches he used. My salary for one year isn't even enough to buy such a fancy watch." Eleanor tried to defend Jack. As Claire's close friend, she didn't want the man who was introduced as her friend's fiancé to be humiliated like this.More than that, Eleanor knew very well that the items Jack was wearing were genuine!"So you don't trust my boyfriend?" Jessie gyrated her waist, as if challenging Eleanor.Eleanor smiled amusedly. "I'm sorry, but I don't think anyone in t
