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

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

Jack didn't want to confuse the man further so he added, "You don't have to worry because whatever you answer I won't make you lose your job and I also won't tell anyone about this."Jack indeed did not have any purpose to make George fired out.George was even more confused but he knew that he couldn't lie so he finally replied with a very heavy, "I apologize in advance, Young Master."Hearing his personal bodyguard's apology, Jack could already guess what George was going to say.But he remained silent and waited for the man to speak again. He would not distract his explanation at all."Young Master, I know you might be angry if you hear my explanation but this is all I can say. I was once a young man with no skills. Sir Hugh found me when I was very young in a park when I was a beggar."Jack listened even more intently as he began to see that George was telling him about his origins he was probably related to his grandfather."He was very concerned about a young man who was so youn

George then checked around the area again and finally decided to approach two cars that were very suspicious.Without asking permission he tapped on the glass of one of the cars, "Excuse me, would you mind opening this glass?"The windshield was then opened and inside were four large men who George guessed were bodyguards."What's wrong?" one of the bodyguards asked.George put on a friendly smile and tried not to look suspicious, "Do you know that you can't park your car on the side of the road here?""Oh, is that so? I didn't read the rules," the first bodyguard turned driver, replied.George immediately said, "Of course it's not on the notice board because it's all posted at the entrance to the gate of this area.""Ah, I see. I'm a guest here and didn't pay attention to those rules. The security didn't tell us about it either so we really didn't know."George nodded and seemed to be trying to understand even though in his heart he was really very annoyed at those who were still so

"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
