Reign of the Heir Chapter 81
Jack slammed a chair into a thug's body. He did it with all his might. Then, Jack swings and smashes the chair into another punk."Argh!" Groan after groan came out of the mouths of the brats.Jack stood up with a gasp. He stared intently at one punk after another who had messed up at King Pizza."Is that Jack Marshall?" Victor couldn't stop his mouth from asking. If he hadn't seen for himself what was happening, he wouldn't have believed that Jack was a fighting expert."I thought the knee Jack gave that guy earlier was just a fluke. But, can there really be this many coincidences?" Catherine said.Another waiter then suggested, "This is very good. We should sit down to watch the show."The employees, who had been worried, were now relieved. They were confident that Jack could handle the thugs."We should apologize and thank to Jack after all this."Just as the employees were smiling, their foreheads furrowed again as they saw Thomas pull out a knife. They stood at attention again, s

"Don't break anything again!"Jack's eyes were red with anger. His voice sounded hoarse as he shouted a warning to the vandals."Hey, this loser is making my hands shake!" Thomas taunted. He stuck out his hand that was still holding the gun, clearly not shaking at all.Not to be outdone, Thomas' friend chimed in, "Thomas, not only you, I'm scared too. I feel like peeing my pants.""No, no, don't get your pants wet, guys. Better you all pee in the kitchen! How does urine-flavored pizza taste, huh?""Sounds interesting," Thomas' friend replied.Thomas and his friends laughed. They made the employees feel very miserable. On the one hand, the employees wanted to protect King Pizza, but on the other hand, they also wanted to protect their own lives.How could they protect King Pizza if they were killed?"Tell me, which one of you is in charge of making pizza?"Victor swallowed. For the first time he cursed his own job. If he had known his choice to become a pizza maker would lead him to hi

Still clutching his aching stomach, Thomas replied, "Nothing, sir."Jack chuckled as he looked at the floor. At that moment, a friend of Thomas' quietly picked up a shard of glass from a flower vase that had fallen from a toppled customer table. The man intended to thrust the broken glass into Jack's nape with all his might.Victor's mouth dropped open when he realized this. He patted Catherine's shoulder without saying anything because his tongue suddenly felt stiff."What's wrong, Victor?" Catherine was annoyed that the pat had startled her."That." That was all Victor said. He pointed at Thomas' friend who was getting closer to Jack.Catherine covered her mouth with both hands. When her eyes saw the man about to smash his glass at Jack, she shouted, "Jack, watch out!"Jack swiftly rolled to the side. Then he fired another bullet. BANG!The shot was followed by the sound of glass shattering into small fragments as it hit the floor. In addition, there was also a cry of pain. The sour

In a luxurious-looking room with classic interiors, a man was sitting relaxing in a soft premium chair. He looked very happy from the smile on his face, even though he was closing his eyes and alone in the room."I can't wait," he says without opening his eyes. He wiggled his chair to the right and left.Then, the man straightened up to reach for his cell phone. He turned it on and looked at the screen."Why is there no news? Did they manage to mess up King Pizza and make Jack the one responsible for it? It would be nice if I could see the store now. But, no problem. I can go there tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to see the remnants of that mess hahaha."That's right, the man is none other than David Guillon, Sophie's ex-boyfriend, who holds a grudge against Jack. It sounds strange because it should be Jack who has the right to hold a grudge against him, considering how he has ruined Jack's engagement to Sophie.However, David still thinks that all his bad luck is because of Jack.

"Can we go now, sir?"Thomas looked at Jack with a pitiful expression. He really didn't know what Jack's plan was. But one thing was for sure, he knew that David would receive a much harsher punishment.Whatever Jack would do to David, Thomas would not interfere. The sooner he left King Pizza, the better for his heart. His heart had been racing since earlier because of the fear that wouldn't go away.Thomas was sure his friends were experiencing the same thing. They were really feeling very intimidated!During Thomas' career as a hired thug, he had never felt so scared as when he faced Jack. He was convinced that Jack was not a random person.'The young man even left my questions unanswered. The look in his eyes made me feel like I was suffocating.' Thomas gulped for who knows how many times."Open your cell phone!""What for, sir?"Jack didn't answer again. He continued to stare intently at Thomas.'Is he thinking of taking all the wages we received from Mr. Guillon. Shit! If that's
Reign of the Heir Chapter 86
In a business area, there is a three-story building that looks magnificent among other buildings. The many lights shining on the building made it look the most luminous.It was David's father's eyeglass shop, Guillon Glasses. The place was already deserted as it was no more than five minutes away from closing. There were only one or two customers still chatting with the staff.Guillon Glasses Optics was the last shop to close. In that area, almost all the shops were closed. That's why the area looks dark.However, behind the darkness, there were many pairs of eyes stalking Guillon Glasses optics. They were all wearing all-black clothes. Therefore, their presence was unknown as they were camouflaged by the circumstances."Get ready, the moment they start turning off the lights, we'll attack," whispered one of the scouts before putting on his headgear.His order was immediately followed by nods from the other mysterious men. They also compactly covered their heads so that no one would r

"Have you forgotten already, BOS?" Thomas deliberately emphasized the word 'boss'. He then continued, "Hey, I even just called you earlier.""Y-you?" David was like being struck by lightning in the middle of the day. The words of the man carrying the gun made David even more certain of what had been in his mind.Those robbers were indeed the thugs he paid to cause trouble at King Pizza!'Then, what did they come here for?' David's thoughts were getting more and more unclear."Looking at your face now, you seem to have remembered who we are. So, what should I do with him, guys?"A thug said as he slammed his fist into his own palm. "Just beat him up!""Ah, no, no, that'll take too long. Better yet, pull the trigger on your gun right now! I can't wait to throw his corpse into the river!" Another thug chimed in.The heinous proposal immediately received approval from the other thugs. They were so excited, asking Thomas to make it happen.Of course, this made David even more anxious. The

The thugs spread out to all sides on the first floor of Guillon Glasses. They quickly shuffled through the neatly organized items, both inside the display cases and outside. The sound of shattering glass soon dominated the room."No! No! Please, don't do this!" David trembled as he watched his father's merchandise fall apart.Meanwhile, the employees approached each other feeling increasingly intimidated. At that moment, they realized that the mysterious men were not robbers. If they were robbers, they would have immediately asked David to show them where the money from today's transaction was kept, instead of destroying things like now.On the other hand, the employees also wanted to stop the action of the bar thugs. However, they are worried that their actions will lead to a shot in the head. Although life is sometimes difficult, they don't want to die yet.When the employees took a stance of not wanting to get involved in the chaos, David urged them to help save his father's busine

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

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

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

The guards delayed dragging Sophie and her friends out because they heard authoritative words from a man. It was an utterance they couldn't possibly ignore.That's right, it was Jack himself who had restrained the guards from arresting the female troublemakers. Now, the place seemed to freeze. Everyone watched Jack's calm face as they wondered what would happen next."What's he going to do?" asked Gary as he watched Jack walk to the edge of the stage after asking his wife for a moment. Although Gary was only watching from the television screen, his breath caught in his throat.As someone who had a lot of blame on Jack, Gary was naturally worried about his life. He began to understand the bad things that kept happening to him, although it wasn't as bad as what happened to David, Gary felt frustrated with his life that kept going downhill.

That one shout managed to provoke the other guests. Now the place was filled with calls for Young Master Roodenburg to kiss his wife.Both of Claire's cheeks flushed at the sound. She even removed her arms from Jack's neck, turning toward the audience with her head slightly bowed.Jack sighed seeing his wife like that. He brought his face closer to Claire's, making the audience stop their exclamations.Everyone was tense waiting for what the Young Master would do."Don't worry. I won't do it in public," Jack whispered so quietly that only Claire could hear him.She turned to her husband with a bright face. Meanwhile, the audience was still waiting for the young master to do what they expected.In that moment of silence, there was suddenly a shout from the back row of seats."YOUNG MASTER!!!"The people were startled. They looked back, to the source of the voice, to see the appearance of the woman who had so boldly called out to Young Master Roodenburg.Now, they were staring at a woma

Happiness was evident on the faces of the bride and groom, their families, and the invited guests, except for the four friends sitting in the back seats.Sophie, who had been shedding tears, now hugged Lady to hide her sobs after seeing Jack kiss Claire on the forehead. Sophie still remembered clearly that during the time she and Jack were dating, Jack had never asked for a kiss from her. Whereas when she was David's girlfriend, he asked her for everything, even on their first day of dating.Indeed, Sophie often sees Jack as a loser even when it comes to romance. While she gives David very high marks, and considers him to be a real passionate man.'But look at it now.

"Hearing his voice, it is clear that Young Master is a kind and humble person. All of us who have the opportunity to attend this event feel very happy and honored. But Young Master instead calls himself the lucky one to be able to greet us. We really are lucky. Even if someone were to buy a wedding invitation from Young Master at a fantastic price, I would confidently refuse it. This is truly the most precious moment of heartbreak." Grace smiled widely with both feelings of happiness and sadness. Her eyes were fixed on the large screen on the right side of the stage. The screen displayed the figure of the masked man who had captured the attention of everyone in Rhineland.Two large screens had been set up beside the stage to help the backseat audience get a clear view of the proceedings. What was shown on the screens was what was seen on the television screens as well.Grace and her entourage were a little disappointed that they were seated at the very back, but they were quite self-a

"If this was the old David, I would believe it. But David, now you even only live in this cramped boarding house. There's no way you can meet a woman from the upper class." Gary picked up a potato chip and chewed it casually. There was no longer any worry or fear of offending David. David's arrogance had faded since he fell into poverty. "Maybe David saw her when he was finance manager at Big Roodgroup." Gary said. However, David remained unmoved. He didn't take his eyes off the television. The frown on his forehead grew. "David." Even Gary's soft call startled David. Shaking his head, David said, "There's no mistaking it, she's that woman." Ryan asked, "What are you talking about?" "I'm pretty sure, she, Young Master Roodenburg's bride is that rude woman who works at King Pizza. She scolded me once. She yelled at me and Sophie. She told us not to go inside the store." Gary and Ryan looked at each other briefly before laughing together. The small room was now filled with their a

Lady took Sophie's arm."I didn't realize that the wedding invitation was real. It felt so... sudden, too sudden. It's a good thing you forced me to come, otherwise I would have regretted missing my idol's happy event even more, though I probably wouldn't have cried about it for long." Lady continued. She hugged Sophie while acting like she was sobbin
