"Forgive me, Young Master." Gideon quickly corrected his words and now looked at his young master with a concerned gaze. "You must be very saddened by this sudden turn of events. I would really like to apologize to you for not accompanying Mr. Hugh last night," Gideon continued to say in a low tone that Jack could hear a note of regret in his voice. "It's already happened and your apology won't change anything," Jack said without turning to his grandfather's confidant. Gideon then turned to the people discussing the matter of Hugh Morland's death and now he frowned as he heard that his master's body would be autopsied. "Young Master, why are you doing that? Isn't it obvious that Master Hugh's death was due to a heart attack?" Gideon asked in an astonished tone. Jack found it strange that his grandfather's confidant would question him on that matter. If the man really felt sorry for his grandfather, he would have searched for the cause of his grandfather's death just like himself.
"Young Master, I ... I would like to apologize in advance," Carrie said in a very quiet tone and still accompanied by her crying. Jack couldn't understand and he asked, "Why are you apologizing, Miss? What exactly happened?"Jack immediately grabbed a tissue and handed it to her which she quickly used to wipe her tears."Last night, when I was just coming out of the servant's rest area, I happened to see Mr. Hugh arguing with Mr. Harold."Hearing that, Jack's eyes immediately widened, "What are you saying? Harold was also in this place yesterday? When did that happen?""I think before Mr. Hugh had dinner with Mr. Gideon. Mr. Hugh went to the bathroom and Mr. Gideon continued walking to the restaurant. Mr. Harold didn't talk for long I guess because when I went back to the reception, I saw him leave shortly after," Carrie explained.However, Jack was still too confused to understand the situation. "So, you're saying that my grandfather had previously gone to this hotel first before t
However, Jack quickly changed his mind because his grandfather's body was still in the hospital. Although he did realize that it was just a threat, he still felt that there was something that made him unable to leave the city. So, he ordered his two bodyguards to take him to the area near the hospital where his grandfather's body was being autopsied. "How many hours will it take them to complete the process?" Jack asked when they reached the hospital but didn't get out of the car. The one who knew this was Ralph who had been in contact with the hospital. "About two to four hours, Young Master. And if you count from the time Mr. Hugh's body was brought to the hospital earlier, it should be finished in about an hour," Ralph explained.Jack nodded his head but since he still didn't know more he asked again, "What about the autopsy process? Can it be known immediately?""No, Young Master. The results can only come out about 2 or 3 days after the autopsy. They need time to scrutinize
Annelisse realized the sadness the young man was feeling and she hugged him even tighter while patting his back. Jack closed his eyes and then heard her say, "Jack, I know this isn't easy for you. But ... please, don't ever feel like you're alone here. There's still me, Jose and Edward who will always be by your side." Those words may have been ordinary words of comfort but for him they had a profound effect. Jack immediately recovered himself and tried to be stronger than before. "Thank you for coming and accompanying me here," Jack said to the girl and his two friends. Furthermore, the three people remained near Jack and did not leave the young man alone. Other people began to arrive as well as Annelisse's family. The girl's parents looked so sad because after all, they also knew Hugh Morland. Even though they were not very close, they still thought that the dead old man was a very kind and warm person. Eric Goldman also approached Jack and hugged the young man while sa
However, the three of them certainly didn't dare talk to Jack Morland directly about what they were thinking. This was due to the impossible situation at the time and also about how the man seemed to be trying to remain visibly saddened by Hugh Morland's passing.Jack Morland himself was mostly silent and only briefly greeted the people who came to pay their last respects to one of the most successful businessmen in the city. On the other hand, Garric and his parents were standing at a distance from Jack Morland.He who had been silent all this time then began to speak, "Dad, I still can't believe that Grandpa Hugh is dead."Harold sighed softly and then said, "I thought that old man would live much longer to accompany his beloved grandson. Unfortunately, it turned out to be an empty assumption."Jean also responded to her son and husband's words, "But ... I still firmly believe that the old man's death was not a normal death."Harold nodded in agreement, "That's for sure and I thin
Harold was silent for a while and tried to think about what his son had said. However, the more he thought about it, the more he remained convinced of his previous stance.He then looked at his nephew who was still standing with his face flat and stiff. He then said to his son and wife, "I'm still convinced that he won't accuse us. Come on, Garric. I do hate Hugh Morland and everyone knows that our relationship has been very bad for a long time. But ... we still have a very close relationship that cannot be denied. Jack must not be too stupid to accuse us of killing Uncle Hugh."Garric still did not agree with his father's opinion but he had no choice but to accept it. However, even so he was still wary in case what he feared happened. Meanwhile, at this time Ralph and Damian were still at the hospital to supervise all the doctors there and the hospital staff involved in examining Hugh Morland's autopsy results.Ralph was seen standing relaxed while Damian opened his cell phone as i
"You don't need to ask that because of course the answer is 'Yes'. There's no way we're going to leave you alone to deal with everything," Edward explained in a tone that sounded so earnest. Jack felt so relieved and then tried to control himself more so as not to overact in front of everyone. The funeral process finally went smoothly without any interruptions. Once it was over, Jack immediately returned to the main room of the Morland family mansion.He was accompanied by his loyal personal bodyguard and Gideon Miles. In addition, three of his friends also came there along with Eric Goldman. However, that was not all. Some company officials were also present but were not too close to Jack Morland for fear of disturbing the peace of the sole heir to the Morland family business empire. Meanwhile, Harold's family had just entered the area and then looked at his nephew with a questioning gaze. Jack, knowing he was being stared at like that, finally said, "The funeral is over. What
Jose finally responded, "Jack is one of the most intelligent or even genius people I've ever met. He's almost impossible to fool and I'm sure he knows it too."He paused for a moment and turned to look at the Harold family's expression, and then he continued, "I also know that Jack doesn't seem to suspect the family. I understand that they have a very bad relationship but that doesn't mean that they are the ones behind Hugh Morland's disappearance.""I think what you're saying is true. Jack can judge who is the most guilty here and as much as he hates Mr Harold's family, he knows how he should proceed. So, for now in order to make things around him less tense he chose to keep what he suspected to himself," Edward explained and then he no longer looked at his friend. This was because Jack decided not to prolong the matter with Harold's family and then let the family stay there for as long as they wanted. Jack then left the area and was followed by Gideon Miles and George. Meanwhile,
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,"
