Hearing that confident remark, Tobias Gray burst out laughing.

Jack just looked at the person who had snatched his lover without annoyance. He shouldn't have been annoyed at Tobias Gray, who had a bad habit of insulting others.

Raymond Gray also said, "Young man, don't make me want to laugh too."

"Laugh if you want to laugh, Mr. Gray. There's nothing against you at all," Jack said.

Tobias stopped laughing, while Raymond said, "Oh my. You're a lot braver than I thought. A poor kid from an orphanage like you shouldn't be like this."

"Why not? Anyone with money, of course, has the right to spend it anywhere, including Ferlo Street," Jack replied still fairly emotionless.

Tobias snorted loudly with a disdainful smile.

"Don't be like that! You might be able to afford those overpriced shoes, but as for clothes, you could spend several years buying clothes on this street, Jack. Wouldn't that be a huge drain on your treasure?"

Raymond nodded in agreement, "Instead of spending your money on

    Jose Collins shook his head, "Jack, there are many pairs of eyes in your division. And they all have mouths."Jack sighed. Now he fully understood. Of course the people who said and spread it out were definitely people from his own division. Jack was really surprised. "These people should be busy with their own work. But why do they even have time to make such inane news?" Jose looked at the young man sympathetically. "You ... don't believe the rumors, do you?" Jack asked Jose.Jose nodded, "If you really have a close relationship with Gideon Miles, you can't be as stupid as I saw when you first came here."Jack winced at that."No offense! But it was real. Someone who comes brought by Gideon Miles doesn't necessarily have a close relationship with him. You might just be lucky to be helped by Gideon but he obviously ignores you."Jose's words made Jack very relieved.Jose added, "If he was your father, how could he let you be in that general division? You must have risen to the to

    "Someone messed up my room, sir." Jack answered quickly.The officer immediately nodded in understanding. The forty-something-year-old man immediately typed something on his computer keyboard.It didn't take long before he found the file Jack was looking for. "Come here, Jack!" the officer asked.Jack approached and sat down beside the kind officer and began to watch the screen that contained footage of the events around the dormitory hallway leading to Jack and his three friends' rooms.From there, he saw a few people passing by, but he didn't see anyone suspicious. Jack frowned, confused."There were a few who passed by, but only Darryl Spencer came into your room," the officer said cautiously.He knew Darryl was very close friends with Jack so he didn't want to jeopardize that friendship.Jack turned to the officer, "It could not be Darryl. That's impossible."The officer replied, "What's impossible, Jack? The CCTV footage makes it clear that no one entered your room other than Da

    "What am I kidding you for? You know I never lie either," Jack said.Darryl Spencer gave his friend a fierce look, "You ... screwed everything up."Jack looked at Darryl in confusion. Then, he slowly saw the other two roommates enter their room."Oh, Steven. Mark, you guys are back here too," Jack said with a big smile.However, the two friends did not answer Jack's words, looking rather sarcastically at Jack.Jack was very confused. He then said, "What's going on?"Steven turned to Darryl, "You lost, Darryl.""And I won, just as I thought. This poor guy can't be loyal to Darrry," Mark said.Steven chuckled, "I expected it from the start, Darryl. I told you, a man like Jack can't be given a heart. He won't be able to reciprocate. You're the one who doesn't believe me.""But, I already thought that you would lose this case to us," Mark added.Darryl simply said, "Never mind, I've had enough of all this betting. Let's just stop it. I don't want to do it anymore.""Are you sure? We've bee

    Jack didn't expect that the decision to return to the dormitory to meet up with his best friends would lead him to learn a fact that he didn't know.However, he now understood that he didn't actually have any friends. Jack walked out of the dormitory and was immediately approached by one of his guards."Young Master, what happened? Are you not going to spend the night in your dormitory?" A bodyguard wearing casual clothes asked him."No, I'm not. I'm going back home.""Yes, Young Master."Without asking, the bodyguard immediately called a car for the young master. Jack immediately boarded his luxury car.When he arrived at the Morland family mansion, he ordered, "I'll be in my room until tomorrow morning. For dinner, tell George to bring it to my room later."The butler nodded without daring to ask any questions. Before Jack stepped away, he said again, "Tell anyone, including Gideon that I am not in the mood to see anyone.""Yes, Young Master."Jack Morland quickly left the parlor a

    Oh, Jack Morland disliked this the most, fighting with a woman.Really, he hated having to deal with a woman.So, not wanting to continue he simply said, "Listen to one thing, Miss. Even if you hate me to death, I still won't leave the general division.""You're so ignorant! An apprentice but arrogant." Eve cursed and threw out harsh words but Jack didn't respond at all.As if he knew Jack was tired of being there, Jose Collins said, "Jack, how about I drop you off?"He offered Jack a ride because he did not want make Jack upset because of that girl."Yes, thank you very much, Jose." Jack said sincerely.Jose Collins had an old-fashioned car that Jack was now looking at with amazement."Your car is awesome!" Jack exclaimed.Jose touched his hair and nervously said, "It's not my car. It's a car one of my uncles gave me.""Wow! Your uncle is very generous," Jack said, still looking at the unique dark brown car."Not really.

    Not immediately answering Darryl Spencer's words, Jack snatched back his invitation paper.Darryl gave Jack an annoyed look. He never expected that Jack could do that. He always thought that Jack was a weak man."I'm not a thief or someone who falsifies any documents, Darryl Spencer."Before Darryl could reply him, Jack was already saying, "And I'm not someone who would deceive others to achieve my goals. Tobias Gray did invite me."Of course Jack wasn't lying. The Gray family had indeed invited the Morland family. He just came without using his family's last name.Darryl's lips trembled in surprise. He tried to believe but he could not do that."How do you know Tobias Gray?" Darryl asked with a shocked look on his face."I couldn't even try to make friends with him. He ... is above me, the class status. There's no way Tobias Gray knows a sewer rat like you," Darryl said in a disdainful tone.Uh, Jack was still not used to Darryl's cruel mouth. However, he realized that the current Dar

    Hearing the blonde girl's words, Jack was naturally surprised."He was flirting with you, Miss?" Jack asked with a shocked expression."Yes. Uh, he really lost his mind. How could he do that in front of his own girlfriend?" the girl again said, looking disgusted.However, realizing that she was talking too much, the girl finally patted her own forehead, "Uh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have told you this."Jack was still surprised but he thought that Lily and Tobias' business was none of his business so he said, "It's okay, Miss. I have no problem listening to your story."The girl smiled embarrassedly. "I'm Annelisse Goldman by the way."Jack was suprised about her name. He ever read that name on his grandfather's paper. He also remembered what kind of business the Goldman's family had."Jack," Jack replied.Annelisse frowned, "Your last name?"Jack shook his head, "I don't think it matters. Family surnames sometimes don't need to be said."Annelisse was even impressed with Jack who she th

    "That's because you were the one who leered at Tobias first. You caught his attention," Lily retorted, still not accepting.Annelisse couldn't understand Lily's hardness of heart, and neither could Jack Morland.Suddenly while they were still arguing, Tobias Gray walked hurriedly towards them. He was very surprised by the presence of Jack Morland, one of the people he hated the most in the world.However, he had more important things to accomplish at that moment so he only looked at Jack briefly. He was more focused on Lily Osborne and also Annelisse Goldman."Lily, I am looking for you, why are you here?" Tobias asked, while holding his girlfriend's right hand."Hm, good of you to come, Mr. Gray. Please, tell your beloved that I never flirted with you at all," Annelisse said.She did not want to spend much time to be with the strange girl.Tobias widened his eyes, "I'm sorry. I don't know what you mean, Miss Goldman. Could you explain about it?""Toby, tell me. Who do you choose? Me o

    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,"
