Reign of the Heir Chapter 202
Undeniably, the aura emanating from Jack made the four women depressed. They seemed to clutch at their own clothes to hide their trembling hands in fear."Lady," Jack called out as the four women fell wordlessly silent.Lady forced herself to smile. "I am, Young Master."Jack laughed to hear Lady, who had often made fun of him as a loser, now addressing him with such a title, and spoken in a gentle tone."You insist on seeing me. Tell me, after this, what do you want?" Jack stuffed both hands into his pockets.To be honest, Jack's changeable reactions, sometimes looking angry, sometimes so friendly, confused Lady. She was well aware that Jack had every right to be angry. And she would accept whatever Jack would do.Lady briefly turned her head to the right and left to see the expressions on her friends' faces. She was sure that the expression on her face now was not much different from theirs; fear, anxiety, mixed with an expression of regret.Then, she suddenly dropped to her knees i

People were surprised by Jack's reaction to what Claire had done, and Claire herself was no exception. From the time she knew Jack until they decided to get married, Jack had never yelled at her, except when she made a mistake.'Then, what did I do wrong?' Claire thought to herself as she looked at her husband.Some of the ladies in the guest seats also didn't expect the young master to yell at his wife. They held their chests in shock. In their opinion, what Claire did was right.Those impudent people deserved two or three more slaps. Some of the guests even wanted to join in grabbing their hair.If Claire was shocked, Lady was not. Although Claire's slap made her cheek hurt, she was glad to know that the young master was quick to yell at his wife for being rude. That meant, she still had a chance. Who knew what chance Lady was referring to."Young Master," Matthew said feeling the need to defend Claire. He thought, perhaps his employer had misunderstood. However, before he had a cha

The moon was perfectly round. From the attic of Greenroad Villa, the wind made the tops of the cypress trees look like they were rubbing against the full moon. There was coffee steaming in two white cups on the wooden table. A burly hand seemed to pick up one of the cups. "It's beautiful," Claire said after her husband took a sip of coffee. She admired the night view of the place. Jack shook his head. "There is something more beautiful than this." Claire said with a beaming face. "Really?" "'Yup." Jack took another sip of his homemade coffee. "Tell me quickly. I want to see it tomorrow." Claire was getting excited. "Why wait until tomorrow?" "So, I can see it now?" "Of course!" Claire clapped her hands happily. "Where can I see it?" She pulled her chair closer to Jack. "Go to the room." Claire who was listening to her husband intently furrowed her brows. However, she still said, "Then?" "When you stand in front of the mirror, look ahead. It really is the most beautiful vie

In a dressing room, Jack stood staring at the shadow of a woman as she sat in front of him, smiling before embracing her from behind. "Jack, let me finish my makeup," she said. "Just like this you are already very beautiful, no need to add more makeup. This is more than enough to amaze everyone." He replied. “No, Jack, enough is not enough for me. I want to look perfect, not only stunning, but also to captivate everyone's heart.” Jack moved in front of his girlfriend, Sophie, and knelt down. “Thank you so much for accepting me,” he said, his voice full of emotion. “Sometimes I think that you are an angel. I can't believe a perfect woman like you is getting engaged to a pizza delivery man like me - especially since you even booked this hotel for our engagement. I promise I will work harder to make you happy.” He kissed her hand tenderly. “Jack, I know you will,” Sophie said confidently. “Now, head out to greet the guests. I invited all my friends for this unforgettable night.” Ja

"Yes, that's right. We are breaking up. I'm sorry Jack, but I can't be with you any longer, either as your fiancée or as your girlfriend."The guests began to murmur amongst themselves as Sophie's three best friends exchanged knowing smiles."What's wrong? Did I do something to offend you?" Jack said, his smile tinged with bitterness. Sophie shook her head in response. "Then what?"“Jack, think about it: What woman of high social standing would risk her entire future for a pizza delivery man, whose salary isn't even enough to cover my electricity bill?”Jack's eyes widened as he felt a sharp pain in his chest. In a strained voice, he started to say, “But you said-”"I don't care about wealth, social class, and all that stuff?" Sophie cut in. "Listen, only an idiot would take those words seriously.""If you're not serious, what is the purpose of this event?"Sophie's eyes widened in shock as she exclaimed, "To announce our break up. From this moment on and onwards, I'm no longer your b

Jack was taken a back, surprised by the request. One of the men spoke up, “Young Master, come with us. We have something important to discuss.”But Jack refused, shaking his head. “No, you won't gain anything by kidnapping me. I am alone and very, very poor.” He said.The man then smiled kindly, “No, Young Master. Come with us to meet your grandfather. Master Roodenburg has been searching for you for decades.”“Mr. Roodenburg? The richest conglomerate in this country is looking for me? How come?”“Young Master is the grandson of Mr. Tom Roodenburg. You are the sole heir of the Roodenburg family.”Jack's jaw dropped to the ground before laughing out loud. It was the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard. If only he really was the grandson of Tom Roodenburg, Sophie would not have dumped him so cruelly.“Look, my heart will definitely explode if what you guys say is true. But thank you, because of you now I know, that I can still laugh. too bad I'm not the person you're looking for. My
Reign of the Heir Chapter 4
As usual, Jack hopped on his bicycle and set off to work. As he rode along the Roodenburg Highway, a sense of pride filled his chest. 'This is my first morning as the sole heir of the Roodenburg family.' He thought to himself with a chuckle. In that happy daydream, suddenly the sound of a horn deafening in the ears. Jack was so surprised that he tiptoed and almost lost his balance. Loud laughter sounded from behind. Jack turned to see who was so arrogant as to honk his horn while the road was still wide enough to walk through. Jack gritted his teeth as three young men climbed into a gray BMW 3 Series sports car. It was Sophie's new boyfriend, David, with his friends. The three of them dismounted proudly, closing in on Jack. Meanwhile, Jack was still silent, just staring at David without blinking. He still remembered, how last night he was humiliated, beaten, and kicked out of his own engagement party. "Are you exercising in the morning with your trashed bicycle?" David's friends
Reign of the Heir Chapter 5
Jack gulped at the very familiar voice in his ear. 'What is she looking for me for?' his mind began to worry.Claire, who had just entered the kitchen, immediately tapped Jack on the shoulder. “Why does your fiancé call you that? She sounded really angry. Did you guys fight?”Jack shook his head. “I-I will meet her.” He walked quickly forward. 'Isn't it enough to swear at me in front of the guests last night, that you still have to continue cursing in front of my customers.' He tried hard to contain his anger.Seeing Sophie standing between the customer's tables, something ached in a corner of his heart. Then, the image of Sophie's betrayal flashed through his head. However, Jack tried desperately to smile."Anyone can-"SLAP!The diners widened when they saw Jack slapped by Sophie. Without exception, Claire covered her mouth with both hands.It didn't stop there, Sophie also grabbed a glass of juice from the customer's table to splash Jack's face.“Bastard you huh! How dare you beat
