"Damn it, Jose. How can you still ask me about this? Don't you feel that he has always been the most suspicious person?" Edward replied to his friend's words in an annoyed and lazy tone.

He thought that his friend was really insensitive and couldn't even judge people.

However, Jose also had his own reasons why he currently did not have any conviction to suspect Gideon Miles as the culprit behind Jack Morland's disappearance.

"Then tell me just one reason about Jack's disappearance that you attribute this to Gideon Miles," Jose asked Edward firmly.

Edward chose to be patient and went on to explain, "Firstly, he was indeed declared missing after he left the Morland family home. But ... it should not be known where he is since Gideon himself stated that his young master left secretly."

"And yet ... people should think that this is an anomaly," Edward continued in an irritated tone.

Jose who still did not understand only frowned as he asked his friend to explain further.

So, still ve

    Edward then answered very heavily, "To be honest, our position is very complicated."That man really thought hard to find the best way to get out from the situation but i'm fortunately he couldn't find it.Edward had not yet continued his explanation but Jose seemed to have guessed what his best friend was going to say. He then added, "We are Jack's best friends and people must think that we have a very good relationship with him. Maybe they also think we know where Jack is.""No, that's not what I meant." Edward denied Jose's words. He thought that his friend didn't understand what he said and he was very annoyed wiith that."Then what do you mean our position is very difficult?" Jose asked with astonishment. "Right now there is no Jack in the company and no one to defend us. Even if we're loyal to Jack, there's no guarantee that he'll come and rescue us soon. So, the safest way to stay here for the time being is ... we pretend to be Gideon Miles' side," Edward explained with an u

    Edward smiled broadly and replied to Jose's words, "No. No one can scare me, Jo. Let alone Gideon Miles who is one of those treasure madmen."Jose sighed and now he also thought that even though he had expressed his refusal, it was unlikely that the man would just stop. "It's actually you who should be careful because I'm sure he must have a grudge because you rejected him so blatantly like earlier. Jose, maybe it would be better if you resigned for a while," Edward suggested but unfortunately that did not make Jose want to do so. "I can't resign now because that would mean I'm letting him win by scaring me," Jose replied with a furrowed brow. Edward nodded as if he understood what was making Jose hesitate. "Alright, we'll think about that later. Now let's go back to our places," Edward said as he patted Jose on the back. On the other side, Gideon Miles had just checked the documents he had signed. He soon received a call from his secretary. With great reluctance he picked it u

    Gideon Miles responded with a joke and said, "Young Master Garric, I didn't expect you to be able to make a joke out of it."The man continued to laugh as if he was currently joking with Garric.However, Garric was not one to waste his time so he asked, "Gideon, I'm not joking at all and I don't have time for that sort of thing."Gideon's laughter immediately stopped and he could no longer make a sound because suddenly Garric looked at him sharply without the slightest smile. "Young Master, I am ....""I'm not a fool you can lie to and trick, Gideon. So, let's just get on with what we need to talk about in the first place."Gideon was silent but the man looked so very alert especially when he knew that the young man was looking at him with a very serious gaze. "What have you done with Jack Morland and where is he now?" Garric asked the man by looking at him straight to let the middle-aged man know that he was not joking. "What are you talking about? I don't understand what you're a

    "Oh, come on. I'm not a murderer who should be barred from entering a restaurant that belongs to one of my family members," Garric explained in a confident tone. Actually the driver did not agree with his young master's words, but he did not want to discourage the young master who wanted to help his distant cousin. So when their car arrived at Luxen Restaurant's parking lot, the driver asked, "Would you like me to accompany you to go inside, Young Master?" "No. I... will go inside by myself," Garric replied and afterwards he asked the driver to stay in the car as he would not take long to see the situation in the restaurant. Just as Garric Morland had expected, he was not forbidden to enter the restaurant and instead was immediately served like the usual customers. Garric immediately asked one of the waiters, "Where is Hanna Morris now?" The waiter explained that the beautiful girl was doing something in her office. But Garric did not insist on what to call the assis

    "Yes, I've thought of the most appropriate way to make him slowly break down and lose his confidence that is currently so high," Jack explained in such a convincing tone that even Alex nodded his head to be more excited than usual. Jack then added, "But ... I can't show up right now because I need to see the situation so that I don't make any unnecessary little mistakes later." Alex Blake of course immediately understood and said, "Yes, Young Master Morland. I completely understand and you should really think about it more thoroughly. So, what can I do to help you with your plan, Young Master?" Jack was so relieved that Alex was still around that he seemed to have people who were still loyal to him. Indeed, there was not only Alex but also three bodyguards who were still loyal to him. However, only Alex had one power which was as the Morland family lawyer. "I thought of one thing but ... you might have to take a pretty big risk to do it," Jack said in a tone that was so very

    "It could happen but ... I don't think it's possible, Garric," Harold answered Garric's question.Garric of course immediately replied while frowning and said, "Why is it impossible, Father?"It was not Harold who answered the young man's question but Jean, his mother who answered him by saying, "Because looking at the way the young man spoke and also all the things he has done before ... he is not someone who would make things difficult for others or harm others. So ... it's highly unlikely that he would ask the people around him for help, my son.""Yes, that's right. He will definitely only ask for help from those closest to him such as people who are probably still around the Morland family circle," Harold responded after his wife finished speaking. Garric began to feel that it was not as simple as he had thought. He thought that a young man like Jack Morland in a situation like this would definitely utilise the people who were still on his side. Unfortunately, the opposite was

    Jack Morland smiled broadly and answered Damian's words, "If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have let Alex take you into my hiding place." Jack's words really made Damian feel very valuable. He was very sorry when he remembered what he had done to George. He thought that Jack Morland only saw George's abilities and didn't consider the other senior bodyguards. In fact, Jack trusted the other guards just as much as the young man trusted George as his personal guard. Jack could see Damian's strange look and he immediately said, "I have to apologize to you because maybe my previous attitude caused the senior supervisors to misunderstand me. But ... I did like that, just like what Grandpa has shown. I must not show how I trust someone so that I am not deceived." "You ... surely understand what my position is, right?" Jack said to Damian. Damian nodded his head without hesitation and then replied, "I understand now and I apologize if I made a mistake in the past that made you uncomfort

    "Young Master, why is he with Mr. Miles now? What is he doing actually? He is your best friend." Damian was still confused while keeping his eyes on the monitor screen that was showing how Edward interacted with Gideon. Jack, who was silent for a long time, finally said, "I don't know what's going on, but ... I still believe in Edward and he wouldn't betray me."He never doubted his best friend but unfortunately what happened was very different.Damian actually did not trust his young master's friend. He could see the familiarity between Edward and Gideon. He thought perhaps Edward had betrayed his young master and was now on Gideon's side. But, it was impossible for Damian to say all that to Jack Morland. He didn't want to make his young master upset and think more badly than he had to. He then heard Jack say, "He must be up to something and it has to do with me too. Edward is one of the people I trust the most besides Jose. He wouldn't be a traitor just for position and treasure

    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,"
