Annelisse let out a frustrated sigh. "Jack, it's not about their abilities. It's about their character. You can't just overlook the awful things they've done because they have skills that are valuable to the company. It's not ethical and it's not fair to the rest of us who work hard and have good character."

Jack thought about Annelisse's words. He had a point, but he couldn't bring himself to completely dismiss Eve and Melysa's potential to contribute to the company. "I understand what you're saying, Annelisse. But I truly believe that people can change. And if they show true remorse and work hard to prove themselves, they deserve a second chance."

Annelisse shook her head, a look of disappointment on her face. "I can't believe you think that, Jack. You're supposed to be a leader, and leaders are supposed to have integrity and make good decisions. This decision goes against everything that our company stands for."

As she spoke, Jack's shoulders slumped in defeat. "I know you're dis

    Annelisse stood there for a moment, a conflicted expression on her face. Finally, she let out a sigh and spoke softly. "I don't know, Jack. It's just so complicated." Jack moved closer to her, desperation in his voice. "Please, Annelisse. I need you here. I can't bear to lose you." Annelisse looked at him, her eyes searching his face for any signs of dishonesty. But all she saw was sincerity and a pleading look. She couldn't resist it anymore and finally relented. "Okay," she said softly, "I'll stay. But on one condition." Jack's face lit up with hope. "Anything, Annelisse. Name it." Annelisse smiled, "You have to scold them. I think you know what you have to do." Without any hesitation, Jack nodded, "I know what I have to do. You have my word." With that, Annelisse agreed to stay and the two stared each other. As they did, they were unaware that they were being watched by Melysa, Eve and Richard Foster. Melysa scoffed, rolling her eyes in jealousy. "Looks like Young Master Mo

    Tobias approached them with a confident stride, but Jack could see the cracks in his facade. "Jack, can we talk?" Tobias asked. Jack sighed and nodded. "Fine, what do you want to say?" he asked, his tone uninterested. Tobias cleared his throat and took a nervous breath. "I know I was a jerk to you before, and I want to apologize," he said, his eyes flickering around nervously. Annelisse rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "He's only apologizing because he's scared of getting cut off from his family," she muttered to Jack. Jack just nodded, knowing Annelisse was right. "Tobias, I appreciate your apology, but it doesn't change anything," Jack said firmly. Tobias looked up at Jack, desperate for forgiveness. "Please, Jack. I'll do anything to make it up to you," he pleaded. Jack shook his head, knowing it was too late for any amends. "I think it's time for you to not go to Morland Group again, Tobias. I don't have anything left to say to you," he said, his voice cold. Tobias was

    Annelisse sighed and looked down at the ground, unsure of how to reply. "Jack, I ... I don't know if I'm ready for this. I mean, we're so young and marriage is a big commitment. I don't want to rush into something and regret it later." Jack's heart sank as he realized what she meant. "Are you saying no?" Annelisse shook her head. "It's not that I don't like you, Jack. It's just that I'm not sure if this is the right time for us. We still have so much to figure out in our lives. I don't want to tie us down with marriage just yet." Jack stood up, his face crestfallen. "I understand," he said, trying to keep his voice steady. "I don't want to pressure you into anything you're not ready for." Annelisse stood up as well and put a hand on his shoulder. "Jack, please don't be upset. I still want to be with you and build a future together. I just don't want to rush things just yet." Jack nodded, still feeling hurt but trying to put on a brave face. "Okay. I understand. We can take things

    Jack tried to make sense of it all, but he still couldn't understand the reason for everything Darryl had done.The young man remembered how he first met Darryl and how they ended up becoming friends."In the past, I thought you were really sincere about being friends with me, who was a poor kid and didn't even have money to eat. You helped me many times by doing things that you thought were nothing but very valuable to me," Jack said, looking at his former friend with an uncertain look.Darryl himself held her hand so she wouldn't do anything stupid again.Jack continued, "For the first time, I feel like I have a friend. Because in my eyes, you are very different from rich people who usually only pick on poor people.""But who would have thought that everything you did was just a lie? You ... made me feel like the stupidest person for thinking you were a true friend," Jack said, then took a deep breath.The look of disappointment was very clear in Jack's eyes. It was the first time D

    Jack shook his head quickly, "I don't know. But according to Grandpa, our family's relationship with their family is not very good."Edward nodded in understanding, "I think they might not like you. But we can't know that until you meet them in person."Edward tried to be more patient and then waited to know Jack's family. He thought that after knowing them, he could help Jack to solve the problem.Jose quickly added, "Oh, but before he meets the family. It would be better if he found out more about them."Jack, of course, immediately agreed with his friend's idea. It wasn't that he didn't know them, but he hadn't studied his family's problems with them, so he didn't have too much information."All right, I'll take care of it. You better concentrate on your work, because I'm afraid that if they really don't like you, they will most likely try to find fault with you," Jose explained with a serious expression.That man did not want Jack to be embarrassed or being bullied by his family b

    And a day later, when Jose and Edward had provided so much information about his grandfather's family that it turned out he rarely appeared, Jack was quite surprised."Amazing! How did you get all this?" Jack asked his two friends.The three of them were currently in Jack's office and he was not letting anyone in while they talked.Jose replied cheerfully, "It was easy.""What do you mean easy? You even got the data on the transactions made by them and my grandfather. That's too surprising, because I knew it wouldn't be easy to get that!" Jack explained with a furrowed brow, looking at his two friends with a questioning look.Edward replied immediately, "You're right. All the data we have is not data that can be easily obtained. So if you get it, it is definitely not possible by yourself, or it can be said that we were helped by someone who is quite influential." Jack blinked and looked at his friend with a suspicious look, suddenly he guessed, "Gideon. You asked him for help?"He co

    Harold Morland laughed out loud, liked what his son had said, and even patted him on the back excitedly."I was waiting for you to say that in front of your grandfather," Harold said with a broad smile.Jean, the gaunt woman with blond hair that was very neatly styled, also said, "That's right, Hugh deserves a gift like this."She seemd she hated Hugh as She hated being fat.The son named Garric, who of course also had the surname "Morland", seemed to fulfill his parents' wish."Well, we'd better hurry because it's getting hot," Jean said as she looked up and indeed the sunlight was starting to sting their skin.The three of them were not forbidden to enter the front, where many guards guarded the luxurious mansion.However, when the three of them arrived at the door, two guards immediately stopped them.Harold narrowed his eyes, not liking the interruption, "Hey, you ... don't you know who I am?" The guard immediately bowed and said, "Welcome, Mr. Harold. Of course we all know about

    "Yes, you have to take him somewhere tonight so he doesn't find out about this problem," Hugh said in a very serious tone.The old man continued, "This is not to say that I don't trust my own grandson's abilities. In fact, I know how capable Jack is. But I can't allow my grandson to get involved with these troubled people until he can truly become stronger in our company. ."Gideon understood easily, of course, and after Hugh gave the order, he immediately disconnected the call.Meanwhile, outside, Jean had just heard Hugh's reply from the bodyguard and his eyes widened in anger, "What? He told us to wait that long? Did he ....""Hey, you already know who we are. But how can you treat us so badly?" Garric said in a tone of disbelief and annoyance at the same time.The guard could only reply, "This is an order from Mr. Hugh, sir, madam."Jean was about to curse, but her husband held her arm and shook his head.He said quietly to calm his wife, "Get a hold of yourself!

    However, in reality Jack Morland let Eric Goldman into Alex Blake's house.He also ordered his personal bodyguard to arrange that no CCTV cameras would capture Eric's movements.As soon as Eric entered the secret area, he immediately conveyed his sister's anxiety.The young man also said his idea and it was very well received by Jack Morland."Jack, I know it might be very dangerous but it would be much better if you showed up in the near future at the signing of a major collaboration that Gideon Miles will soon be doing," Eric said.Alex quickly responded, "I'd like that too since we have absolutely no idea what's really in Gideon Miles' brain."Jack Morland seemed to be in serious thought but after he deliberated he finally decided to say, "Well, I guess I can't wait any longer to punish the man who dared to kill my grandfather."Eric nodded with relief and responded, "My family is ready to help you fully and never doubt us if you need other help."Jack nodded and then said quietly,

    Eric was eager to find the car but when he remembered that he had something much more important to do, he chose to let the car go.He then ordered, "Well, we'd better go straight to lawyer Jack Morland's house."Ray and Denis quickly followed suit and carried out their young master's orders. Just a few minutes later they arrived at a house that appeared to have been left unguarded by bodyguards. Ray looked at the house suspiciously while Denis, who already knew that people were hiding in a room, immediately asked the young master, "Young Master, what should we do now?"Eric remembered his brother's message and immediately waited until the sun had set. "Are you sure we should wait here until it gets dark, Young Master?" Ray asked very cautiously. "Yes, we have to be more careful because if we make a mistake we might not be able to find them. And ... what's even worse is that we could let Gideon Miles know where they're hiding," Eric explained and it was understood by his two bodygu

    However, before they had a chance to discuss the matter further they were surprised by the arrival of the two main bodyguards whose duty it was to always guard Gideon Miles wherever he was.They of course chose to immediately shut their mouths so as not to make the bodyguards suspicious. One of them looked suspiciously at the servants and other bodyguards who had suddenly fallen silent. "Hey, what's going on here? Why are you all acting weird?" Sean, the 30-something year old bodyguard asked. One of the brave servants replied, "Nothing important is going on here, sir. It's just that we were surprised by the arrival of the two main bodyguards of Mr. Miles.""Didn't you two accompany Mr. Miles all the way down to this floor?" the waiter asked trying to remain calm. Sean snorted and then he waved his hand, "Never mind, it's because we were resting for a while before we escorted Mr. Miles to go check on something."Of course it actually made the bodyguards and servants curious especia

    "That is indeed the case, Mr. Miles. Young Master Garric didn't look angry at all," the gatekeeper explained of the Morland house once again. He didn't hide anything and explain it clearly in order to make Gideon understand the situation. He tried to not to make Gideon feel that he didn't do his job. Gideon still had a hard time believing that but when he asked one of the guards to show him the CCTV footage at the main gate, the man finally believed it. It was so clear in the CCTV footage that Garric Morland did not even get out of the car. Garric was only in his car and asked his driver to meet the gate guard to ask for permission to enter. That only lasted for a few minutes so Gideon was even more astonished by the change that was so obvious to his eyes. After the guards left his room, Gideon thought more seriously. "What really happened to that young man? Does he really not want the Morland family fortune anymore? But, how could that be? He's not a young man who

    Annelisse Goldman thought for a moment but when she considered her elder brother's idea, she finally tried to accept it. She hoped what she decided wouldn't make her regrets anything."Then, how are you going to get there?" Annelisse asked her brother. Eric smiled and replied, "You don't have to think about it and you just have to wait for the results."Annelisse nodded her head and tried to completely leave the matter to her brother. She trusted her brother so much and she hoped he could warn Jack about the dangerous Gideon Miles. Meanwhile, Garric Morland had just discussed Jack's problem with his father and then he chose to go to the Morland family home.He thought the only way to get Gideon to confess about what he had done was to press him further and harass him. Because, he had mobilised so many bodyguards to search for Jack's whereabouts but he still couldn't find his cousin's whereabouts. He was not desperate but he just wanted to try to take one of the easiest ways by a

    Jack Morland quickly calmed the girl down by saying, "Anne, you don't have to worry about this."Annelisse Goldman widened her eyes when she heard Jack say that, "Jack, are you serious? You really don't suspect them at all?"Jack shook his head and he stopped walking and smiled at the girl, "Anne, I knew them long before they knew my true identity. I know their characters well and of course I can easily trust them."Jack stopped talking for a moment and then continued, "If the two of them were indeed unfaithful to me, they would have done something like this long before my grandfather died. In fact, I would have needed to force them to move to the positions they got.""You know ... they didn't even want to do it but because I persuaded them, they finally did. With something like this, I can tell right away that they might need a much higher position but they wouldn't want to get it the wrong way round," Jack explained at length about his argument.

    Gideon smiled widely when he heard Alex's words. "You're right. Right now I'm the only person he can trust so I know all the decisions Young Master Morland has made must have been well thought out," Gideon argued and laughed.George could hardly bear to be in that room so he gave Alex the code for them to leave the office immediately. However, before that could happen Alex said, "Mr. Miles, before I leave I would like to ask you something."Gideon, who was in a good mood, nodded, "Yes, just say the word, Mr. Blake.""The Young Master wants you to organise a meeting where you will preside over the meeting so that all the important officials in this company know about the order given by Young Master Morland. Can you do it, Mr. Miles?" Alex asked carefully as this was the last order from the young master before they would actually face the master plan of their young master. "Yes, you don't need to worry about it at all. It's easy to do and I will do it in the near future," Gideon quic

    As had evidently been expected by their young master, Gideon Miles did ask about the young master's whereabouts. With great calm and composure, George again replied, "I apologise to you, Mr. Miles. For this matter I cannot say."Gideon Miles looked both disappointed and very upset but the man tried to keep a friendly smile on his face and it looked like a forced one. Alex Blake was extremely happy that he managed to make the man upset. "Gideon, you don't need to feel upset because after all this is what Young Master Morland wanted. Wouldn't you also be happy if the young master could win himself back and then be able to return to this company again with a healed mentality?" Alex asked the man with a smile. Gideon chuckled when he heard that and immediately responded, "Oh, of course. I would be happiest if young Master Morland could return to his old self and start running the company as instructed by Master Hugh."Alex was truly amazed and appreciated the acting shown by Gideon Mi

    Richard Foster confidently shook his head, "Young Master Morland, even if I could get a much better position than what I have now, I would never be able to stand my ground when I got it the wrong way round."He sighed and continued, "I've gone through so much and fought so hard to get to the position I'm in now, I'm not going to throw away my efforts that I've worked so hard for to get an instant position.""I can never be proud of that," Richard ended his explanation and it made Jack smile at the middle-aged man. He was so relieved to hear that and he even thought that he never regretted choosing the general division back then. "Thank you for being loyal to my family and ... not taking advantage of my difficult position," Jack said quietly to the middle-aged man. They talked about a few things next and finally Jack said to Richard, "If I need your help, would you be willing to help me?""Of course, Young Master. Whatever you need and want, I will definitely try to do it for you,"
