Aletta Miller immediately wiped away the tears that had rolled down her cheeks. She then tried to look up at Tobias Gray, the son of the owner of the large mall where she worked. The young man was now standing not far from her. They were no less than three meters apart so Aletta could see how serious Tobias looked saying that. "Do you really mean it, sir? Will I not be punished?" Aletta asked in a very soft tone.Whoever heard the young girl's voice, they could easily know that the girl was indeed very scared.Lily Osborne was growing impatient and becoming increasingly annoyed with the girl who was no less beautiful than her. She was also getting jealous of her. She was afraid if Tobias was interested in her. It would be bad for her if that happened.Meanwhile Tobias still looked calm and authoritative. "When do I joke about things like this, Miss ....?""Aletta Miller," Kevin, the manager said when Tobias turned to him as if to ask him a question.He was very sad because he could n
A burst of laughter instantly filled the vicinity of the shop. It was the laughter of Tobias Gray and Lily Osborne. How could they not laugh, because in their eyes Jack Morland was the poorest student in their college. Then, they saw him defending the female employee by offering her a job. Who would believe in him? "Jack, wake up from your dream! Please don't go crazy!" Tobias shook his head and was still laughing loudly. Lily wiped away the tears that had fallen from laughing at Jack's silliness. She then responded, "Jack, come on. You're still in your right mind, right?" Jack didn't respond and instead he took Aletta's shoes that were left not far behind him. Aletta was still confused as to how she should act. "Sir, are you serious?" Aletta finally asked. "I'm always serious." Jack gave Aletta's pair of shoes to the owner. Lily rolled her eyes. Jack had always been nice to her. When she saw Jack being nice to other girls, she didn't like to see it. This did not mean Lily sti
"Sir, I really apologize to you very much. But, it's not what you think. I just feel ... I don't want to burden others." Aletta paused for a few seconds, as if thinking of the right words that would not offend Jack. Looking at Jack who seemed to be waiting for her, she quickly continued, "You helped me earlier, sir. I think that's enough. I can find my own job." Jack understood. He knew the young girl in front of him did not really trust him, but he was glad Aletta spoke in such a polite manner that he did not mind. "Alright, if that's your decision, Miss. But, if you need any help, you can contact me. I would be happy to have a worker like you." The man said as he asked Aletta to save his number. Aletta frowned but still recorded Jack's cell phone number in her phone. When Jack left the shop, Aletta immediately muttered, "If he has a company, even if it's a small one, shouldn't he have a business card? Why doesn't he have one?" Aletta shrugged, "Maybe he really wants to hide hi
When he heard the young master's order, Gideon was immediately excited. Without asking the purpose of Jack Morland wanting to buy the restaurant, the man replied obediently, "Yes, Young Master. In a few minutes, the company will be yours." "Oh, there's no need to rush, Gideon." Jack said in a low tone. "Why, Young Master?" Gideon asked in a surprised tone. "I'm going to the other mall first to submit my resignation letter as a toilet cleaner, so I'll be back at Luxen Restaurant in about two hours," Jack explained quickly. Gideon quickly understood, he then replied, "Yes, Young Master. Then, do you also want to buy the mall where you previously worked, Young Master?" Jack thought for a moment but he quickly said, "No. But ... I want you to investigate one mall. But... I want you to investigate about another mall, it is Gray Mall." "Gray Mall? What should I investigate, Young Master?" Gideon asked so as not to get his assignment wrong. "Everything, along with who the major shareho
"Yes, Young Master. I understand what you want." Gideon answered from the other side. Jack Morland was greatly relieved. It seemed like what his grandfather had said was true. Gideon was always reliable. So, after ordering Gideon to do his job, Jack immediately hung up the phone call and hurried back to Luxen Restaurant. However, just as he was about to enter through the main door, the two guards who threw themselves at him earlier held him back. "Hey, loser, what else do you want to do here?" One of the guards said while restraining Jack from entering by blocking him right in front of Jack. "I came as a guest." Jack said as he tried to get away from the guard. The guard laughed mockingly. "Guest? Who do you think you are? Do you have money to pay for food here?" The guard's friend added, "To buy the cheapest food, I'm pretty sure he can't afford it. How is he going to eat here?" Jack flashed a faint smile. "I'm not here as a dining guest, but I want to meet the director of thi
Seeing her look so shocked, Jack Morland didn't waste the opportunity. He simply said again, "Morland's heir."Hanna Morris was stunned. As if she couldn't believe what she had just heard, she asked with trembling lips, "What did you say?"Jack was about to repeat it, but the tall security guard said, "Stop it! Get out of here! Don't make any trouble!"He would have kicked Jack if Hanna hadn't immediately shouted, "Stop! Let him go!""Why, Miss? This tramp is just bragging. You wouldn't listen to what he says, would you?" one of the security guards looked confused."That's right, Miss. It's better if we just kick him out," his friend said. Hanna Morris wasn't too sure either, but she didn't want to take any chances. If that scruffy young man was really the one who had bought the restaurant, she would be in big trouble if she kicked him out. Hanna didn't want to imagine herself possibly getting fired just because she didn't recognize the new owner."Never mind, you guys just leave." H
Matthew Flint almost fell out of his chair when he heard Jack's words.Clearly, he was the new owner. Matthew didn't doubt it anymore. However, he had already made the mistake of doubting him. So, what should he do now?"Sir, how is it? Do you intend to call Gideon or not?" Jack asked again.Matthew quickly said, "No, sir. Sorry, sorry for my ignorance. I am guilty. I really didn't know anything about you. I-""No problem," Jack cut in quickly.He didn't have much time so he didn't want to linger.Matthew said, "I'll get you the documents you want right away, sir. But, while you wait. Would you like to have one of the restaurant's specialties, sir?"Hanna Morris was immediately stared at by Matthew as if she had been asked to explain about the best menu in the restaurant."Let me explain it, sir." Hanna began to say.Jack listened to all of Hanna's explanations that he already knew. Maybe the two people didn't know that Jack was a former waiter at the restaurant so they explained as i
With a look of fear, Matthew Flint replied, "If a staff member has never broken a rule, then he will be punished. However, if he has done so more than twice, he must be dismissed, sir."Greg Morgan was surprised when Matthew Flint, the managing director, addressed the snot-nosed boy as 'sir' which meant that the man obviously respected him.What the hell was going on? Greg was getting confused.Before he could understand everything, he was surprised again by Jack's question, "Then, how many rules has Mr. Morgan broken, Miss Morris?"Hanna Morris not only had the task of managing everything related to the managing director, but she was also familiar with the staff who had had problems with the company. "He has broken the rules twice, this is the third time, sir." Hanna replied while glancing at Greg who immediately turned pale.The man immediately said, "Wait. Sir, what did I break? I have not violated anything at all. The matter of this young man's salary, he is clearly at fault. He d
