"Whenever I'm ready, Dad. If you ask me to take immediate action tomorrow, I will not refuse and I will do it to the best of my ability," Garric replied with confidence and determination.He thought this might be a way to make his parents proud of him.He could take the chance to impress his parents without thinking the idea.He had to prove to his parents that he was reliable as a member of Morland Family.All this time he had lived off the gifts of Hugh Morland. He never struggled to earn anything and his parents never forced his to do anything.But with the appearance of Hugh's biological grandson, Garric felt he had a chance to change all that and become the savior of his family.Harold smiled with relief at his son's agreement, "Very well, son. Then we'll organize the plan right away so that we can get closer to Jack more quickly."Jean, hearing her husband's words, then asked, "But ... what if Uncle Hugh contacts you to meet Jack before our son meets him?"Harold nodded his head
Gideon cleared his throat immediately, not wanting to make Jack suspicious of him."My apologies, young master. I mean, I'd still like to spend some time touring the city with you," Gideon replied, looking at the streets as if he didn't dare look at his young master.Jack was beginning to be suspicious of his grandfather's confidant, but he couldn't possibly refuse the man's wishes. Gideon had helped him so much that accompanying him around the city would be no problem for him."All right, I'll go with you. I've never been to this town before," Jack replied honestly.The young man was instantly reminded of his childhood spent only in an orphanage.Even since graduating from high school and then entering Rundall University to continue his education and then living in a special dormitory provided by the college, Jack had never traveled around the city. His time was always spent working and concentrating on his studies.In fact, he hadn't had much time to spend with his friends or girl
Gideon took some time to respond to the great master's words.And finally, when he was able to control his voice, he opened his mouth immediately, "Is this a reality, sir? Mr. Harold openly wants to meet with Young Master Jack?""Yes. Harold said it to my face and obviously he must have something planned," Hugh explained as he leaned his head back against the cushioned chair.Gideon frowned, visibly displeased by this fact, but still trying to keep himself from swearing, he said slowly, "Then do you approve of their wishes, sir?" Actually, just by looking at the agitated face of his great master, Gideon could already guess what Hugh Morland's answer would be.However, it seemed that hearing the answer directly from the great lord might make him understand, so he waited for Hugh to explain it to him."I have no choice but to decline. I would rather plan their meeting with my grandson myself than have to watch them try to meet my grandson in secret. It's very dangerous if that happens,
"Yes, sir. We know what to do," one of the guards said in a serious tone.Besides the extra guards, George Cleve had also been ordered to stay by Jack's side wherever he went.In fact, once they were in Jack's room, George didn't leave his side and stood in the corner like a living statue, keeping an eye on the situation.Jack was actually beginning to wonder about the strange behavior of his personal bodyguard.But he didn't want to make the bodyguard uncomfortable, so he decided to wait a while.But when Jack called Edward and Jose, George still didn't move. This made him even more confused and suspicious. He thought that he could let George do it again.Jack decided to ask, "George, what's wrong? Why do you seem to be watching me more and more? Is this an order from Grandpa?" George, of course, had already prepared an answer to that one question.The very young man replied, "Yes, young master. I have special orders from Mr. Hugh to watch over you because it is feared that business
With his usual flat expression, George immediately replied to the young master, "Young master, I truly apologize if you are disturbed by my presence. However, there are a lot of strangers on this campus, and I don't want to be negligent in performing my duties."Oh, no. Jack was beginning to dislike this. In the past, he had never been bothered by the presence of bodyguards who always stood guard around him, dressed like ordinary young people.But now that his identity had been revealed to the public, Jack felt uncomfortable.In fact, at this time, several people were looking at him while whispering as if they were talking about him.Unfortunately, Jack actually heard some of the sentences they were saying."Oh, I know he's rich, but ... does he have to show his wealth by asking his bodyguards to accompany him wherever he goes?" The person said in a cynical tone that sounded so obvious."Oh my! I wonder about the new rich man syndrome like Jack. He must really want to show the world
Jack stared at the hand of the person who claimed to be his distant cousin with a puzzled look. However, he thought that if the distant cousin had bad intentions toward him, he would easily find out. He could not be easily fooled by people.So he shook his cousin's hand and said, "Jack."Garric nodded and smiled, "I saw you on the news.""Hm. Then what is your purpose in coming to see me and what do you want from me?" Jack asked immediately because he didn't want to waste any time.Garric sighed softly, "I told you so many things, but I know you might not believe me. But ... I really have no other choice than to come to you.""What exactly do you mean?" Jack asked with a furrowed brow."Jack, everything in your eyes doesn't necessarily match what's really going on. You're ... new to the Morland family. So I'm sure you don't know much about our family," Garric said in a tone that sounded serious and earnest.Jack became more and more confused and Garric made the best of it, knowing tha
However, Jack could not think about it any further because he had to face his meeting with his grandfather again.That night, Jack decided not to confront his grandfather about Garric. He decided to keep the problem to himself and try to solve it in his own way.In fact, he had already planned to meet Garric. Then, he also decided not to tell his two friends and George, even though the man knew that George would be close to him wherever he went.However, he had thought of the best way to make his plan work.Unfortunately, one morning he couldn't stop himself from asking his grandfather."Grandpa, can I ask you something?" Jack asked as he cut his meat that morning.Hugh raised his eyebrows in surprise at his grandson's question, "You can ask me anything and why do you have to ask permission?"Jack chuckled softly and replied, "Oh, Grandpa. It's so early and I don't want to spoil the nice atmosphere just because of my question."Hugh became even more curious, "What did you want to ask
Since he still wanted to keep the matter to himself, Jack replied, "No, Grandpa. I've never met any strangers or suspicious people."Of course Jack couldn't be said to have lied to his grandfather.The young man had met Garric who was still a member of the Morland family. Of course the young man was no stranger as he knew him despite meeting him for the first time.Hugh visibly nodded in relief at the grandson's explanation.The old man then said once more, "Then be careful, I don't want you to experience anything bad.""Take it easy, George will always take care of me so you can relax and focus on your health, Grandpa. I don't want your health to suffer just because you're thinking about me," Jack said in a solemn tone.Although he did suspect something that his grandfather had been hiding, Jack loved him and was always thinking about his health.After all, Hugh was the only person who had a direct relationship with him and he didn't want the old man to think about bad things not to
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. Annelisse couldn't help but be reli
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,"
