Rebecca found the opportunity to channel all her fear, anxiety, and anger about the situation into this rant against Jack, and continued to yell;"Do you find it really funny, huh? Tell me, are you feeling so happy now, after lying and manipulating everyone and turning them against me? You worthless man– you are the worst possible mistake of my life, I wish I had never met you at all! You have always been a horrible husband, who couldn't give me anything at all! And now, my boyfriend wants to make me feel loved and protected, I bet you are feeling like a real loser, right? But instead of realizing what a small ugly insect you are compared to him, you still have the audacity to laugh, after pulling me into all this mess?"Regardless of her frustration, Jack was unapologetically blunt in his response."Oh, so you think all this mess has been caused because of me? Well, news flash! If you hadn't put your hands on money that didn't belong to you in the first place, we wouldn't even be in

The atmosphere inside the restaurant flipped all of a sudden as the henchmen scattered throughout the restaurant and approached the other guests, asking them to leave.Most of the guests had already sensed that the situation was heading towards disaster, and left their seats long ago. And as for the other ones, they didn't need much convincing to flee, especially after seeing the gruff body language of these thugs.Meanwhile, thoughts were swirling through Jack's mind like a storm, but he couldn't reveal his true emotions in front of everyone. The thugs were undoubtedly called to harass him, but he could see that they were trying to rattle his nerves by making him wait. The irony of the situation wasn't lost on him at all – was this the man his wife of eight years had betrayed him for? He couldn't help but wonder why his ex-wife would give an undeserving and disloyal man like him, a watch worth $700,000!A mocking smile settled on his lips as he thought about how absurd all this was.

Every parent's deepest desire is to cradle their children and keep them wrapped up in their bubble of innocence, sheltering them from the harsh realities of the world… for as long as they can. But sometimes, in this unpredictable journey of life, the parents are faced with a harsh choice. And then, the most important thing is to expose them to the truth, no matter how harsh or disturbing it may be, or how it might make them more mature than their age. Because only by exposing them to the truth, can the parent then teach the children how to keep themselves safe.All these thoughts were running through Jack's mind as he decided to confess everything in front of his daughter. "Sweetheart, the thing is, your mom's boyfriend, Robert… he isn't a good man. He is actually a drug dealer.""What does it mean, daddy?""It means that he has hurt some people for money, and now, the police are looking for him. But there is no reason to be afraid, okay? Daddy is here to get you both out of danger

Jack flattened his foot on the accelerator, trying to get as far away from the River Valley Apartments as he possibly could. He was now in a race against time to secure his family's safety, as the threat of the drug dealer's goons was never going to leave him alone. He knew that the only way to permanently protect his daughters from the imminent danger was to eliminate the source of the threat – Robert Wendell. However, before he started out to accomplish this dangerous mission, he needed to relocate his family to a secure place, to shield them at least temporarily. At that moment, the only option that came to his mind was the safe houses he had built and set up in different locations of the city, back when he was the leader of the scavenger organization. He sped through the city streets, looking for the nearest safe house as the memory of its location was etched in his mind– and at this point, that would be no less than a lifeline to provide sanctuary for his daughters.But as

Jack thoroughly recognized the weight behind Megan's words, and expressed his gratitude after a few minutes of silence. "Thank you, Megan. I really owe you one, and I promise to return the favor after we resolve the current crisis with the Scavengers." Megan simply smiled as she shook her head, and replied;"You don't owe me anything, Master. In fact, your return has caused many of our supporters to come out of their folds, and sent a new wave of enthusiasm through our active recruits." There was a glimmer of excitement in her eyes as she gushed;"Actually, when you logged in, most of the major organizations withdrew their siege within minutes! According to our reports, numerous operations were called off. And not only this, but some organizations have even sent gifts to the headquarters, to celebrate the return of the Scavengers."The news provided a momentary relief, even though Jack hadn't expected that even after so many years, he would still have this kind of an influence on t
