Reign of the Heir Chapter 25
In the late afternoon, Jack came out of King Pizza. Claire was about to take a taxi home and asked him to go home first because she still had some things to finish. Jack took a different route. To be more precise, he didn't go straight home because he wanted to stop by the First Style clothing store. He wanted to see the atmosphere of the store after being led by the new manager. Oh or did he actually want to meet the manager?Jack smiled remembering Audrey who had been very warm to him, even though she was just a 'pizza delivery person'. He looked briefly at the paper bag hanging on the handlebar of the bike.It didn't take long for him to reach the First Style store. Jack took the paper bag off the bike. He smelled it as he walked towards the main door of the shop. 'Victor is a pizza expert. He praised his friend who was in charge of making pizzas at King Pizza.The shopkeeper bowed respectfully to Jack, "Welcome, happy shopping, sir."Jack smiled and entered. The guard's treatmen

In her unstoppable rage, Audrey almost blurted out who Jack was. She only realized after hearing Jack clear his throat.Now, Audrey was really caught in a difficult situation. Especially when Lady pressed her."Who is this pizza delivery guy anyway?! A conglomerate? An official? A ruler? Hahaha, I'll faint if that's true!""He-he's ...." Audrey's sentence hung because she was still thinking about the rest."You can't defend him, can you? It's not easy because there's nothing to be proud of in that loser! All he has is a big zero!" Mary pointed at Jack's face who remained calm."Stop pointing at him, Miss. If you ladies object to Jack being here, you can leave. The exit door is still the same as the door you entered earlier."Lady and Mary turned to each other. Both frowned, unhappy with Audrey's words."You're kicking us out just for this trashy guy! Hahaha, what a pity for this shop owner. He chose an amateur manager and let Nathalie go. Though I can guarantee, this guy won't buy any

The humiliating moment at First Style has not faded away even though days have passed. Neither Lady nor Mary could forget it. How could respectable ladies like them be kicked around like vagabonds?In their entire lives, it had never happened! Usually they were the ones who humiliated others, but that night they felt at their most despicable.Even today, their resentment towards Jack, and Audrey, was exactly the same. They wanted to retaliate, but they hadn't had the chance to do so yet, they had been violently expelled.If they could, they would have wanted to take off and change their faces because they were so ashamed!"Lady, Mary, it's still too early to pout. Did you guys have your periods together?" The woman in pink stifled a laugh."Grace, don't mock us like that. It's not funny at all." Lady replied with an increasingly annoyed face."You don't know that bad things are sometimes very hard to forget. I'm even really want to kill someone right now." Mary banged her fork on the

"Sophie, is everything okay?""Yes, your face is suddenly pale. Did something go wrong at work?"Grace and Lady were getting curious. They knew Sophie was a confident person. For a question that could end in a compliment, why was Sophie suddenly 'worried'?"Sophie, we've been friends since college. Just tell me if something is bothering you. We usually share our problems, right? Seeing you like this makes us worried. Did David forbid you from working? Did he ask you to resign so you can stay at home when you get married?"Sophie shook her head. "No, no, he's happy that I'm doing well." She tried to smile."So?" Her three friends asked in unison.A breath escaped Sophie’s mouth. It seemed like she could no longer hide the big problem she was having."Guys, as bad as what happened to Lady and Mary last night, it's still worse what happened to me. I can't cry anymore because my tears are running out."Lady, Mary, and Grace frowned. They wondered even more, what could be worse than being

Jack's jaw hardened as he turned to the voice of the troublemaker. 'Damn!' he muttered to himself in annoyance.Jack looked away for a moment. It wasn't David's cursing that upset him, but the presence of those people that could threaten tonight's beautiful moment. 'Why did they have to come now?’Swearing to anything, Jack was immune to any kind of cursing. He had become accustomed to it long before he even knew his true identity. However, tonight was different. He had invited Audrey to accompany him, and he couldn't help but wonder if she had dressed up all pretty and elegant just to subject herself to the insults of those people.Despite his usual immunity, Jack felt uneasy as he led Audrey into the gathering. He couldn't understand why he had to meet with those annoying people again, especially when they were all gathered in full force, making it all the more of a nuisance."Jack, we can go if you want.

"You don't believe me?!" David was apoplectic at the sight of Jack. "Look, one little scratch you cause on this car can cost a lot of money to fix at the car repair shop. That's why you should never put your smelly back on a car that doesn't belong to you! Even if you work for the rest of your life, you won't be able to buy a rearview mirror from this car.""Wow!" Jack held his head. In his heart he continued, 'You'd faint if you knew this car was mine!David came closer to Jack. He grabbed the man by the collar before whispering, "Even though you're close to Mr. Matthew, don't think you can do anything. Look, Mr. Matthew is just a subordinate of Young Master Roodenburg. Wait until I meet the Young Master. I swear I'll make you beg at my feet for daring to humiliate and work me the other day. You piece of trash!"David pushed Jack still with bulging eyes. Then, he pointed his index finger, "Watch out! Don't you dare cause trouble at this charity event, or I'll make Young Master Rooden

It was one of the best auditoriums in the country.David, Sophie and their friends sat side by side in the same row of seats. It was quite far from the stage. Jack smiled before pointing, "Over there!" With the help of the guards, it wasn't difficult for Jack to find David, Sophie, and their friends' entourage among the many guests attending the event.Audrey nodded. She and Jack walked quickly to the group of troublemakers."Hey! You can't sit here! Go and sit somewhere else!" Lady ambushed with a scolding when she saw Jack and Audrey sitting right behind her.No less surprised at Jack and Audrey's presence, Mary re
