Jack almost choked on his own saliva when he heard Annelisse's words. He never thought Annelisse would say something like that. "Hm, why are you silent, Jack? Are you too fascinated with me? I'm too beautiful for you to be speechless, Young Master?" Annelisse said with a sweet smile. Jack blinked a few times, taking his eyes away from Annelisse's beautiful face. "What are you talking about?" Annelisse giggled, "Gosh, you're so charming when you look so shocked, Jack!" Jack shook his head, not wanting to respond to the beautiful girl's words. However, his cheeks turned slightly red with embarrassment. Unfortunately, Annelisse had also noticed the change in the handsome young man's complexion so she couldn't resist teasing him. The girl said again, "Uh, so it's true that you're very fascinated with me, Jack, tell me, am I the most beautiful girl you've ever seen?" Jack sighed in exasperation. Annelisse was indeed extraordinarily beautiful. Jack couldn't argue with that. But, ac
Annelisse turned her beautiful head, "About what, arranged marriages? What kind of arranged marriage?" Jack frowned. A little surprised. Did this mean he didn't know about it at all? Didn't his parents tell him anything about it? Annelisse woke Jack up with a hand, "Jack, hey. What's wrong with you?" Jack shook his head, "It's nothing." "You freak!" Annelisse responded with a shrug. Jack turned his head once more towards the girl and gave her a glance before thinking again. Why didn't Annelisse's family tell the girl? Hm, maybe it was because it happened so long ago that the girl's parents decided not to bring it up again. "Yes, it must be because of that. There's no mistaking it," Jack muttered in a low tone. When the working hours finally came to an end, Annelisse hurriedly approached Jack so casually. "Come on, let's go!" Jack, who was still tidying up his desk, just nodded. Edward walked over, "Are you going straight home, Jack?" Before Jack could answer, Anneliss
Gerry Hall seemed surprised by the question. The man was unable to even blink for a few moments. Jack had to repeat his question, "I need two dresses fast, hm for me a suit and for her ... a dress."Jack pointed at Annelisse whose face looked so radiant. Gerry Hall who had originally suspected that the friend brought by Jack was a special person immediately said, "Yeah. Of course ... It is ... I have many. But ... why not sew a new one, Young Master?""I can't. The party is tomorrow," Annelisse answered.Gerry smiled, "Very well, then. I'll show you my best collection."The man bowed respectfully to Jack and Annelisse. Although Jack Morland didn't make it clear that the beautiful girl was his girlfriend, Gerry could guess that the blonde haired girl was the rich young man's girlfriend."Young Master, please come with me. And Miss ....""Goldman," Annelisse answered quickly when the man looked at her questioningly."Miss Goldman, uh ... I think I've heard of that name before," Gerry s
"Oh, have I guessed wrong, Young Master? Don't you intend to formalise your relationship with Miss Goldman? You don't-" "Stop!" Jack used a hand to stop Gerry who was speaking recklessly without thinking. The man who was not too far from his father's age fell silent, afraid that he might misspeak again. He waited for the young master to speak. Jack sighed softly, trying to control himself who was in a bit of a mess just because Gerry thought he was going to marry Annelisse Goldman. "Gerry, listen to me carefully. Can you?" Jack asked in a quiet but serious tone. "Yes, Young Master," Gerry replied with a small nod. "Annelisse Goldman and I have no relationship whatsoever. We just happened to meet and she currently works at the Morland Group," Jack explained. This time Gerry's mouth opened slightly, "She works at Morland Group? But ... why? Doesn't the Goldman family also own a company that can't be considered small?" He looked very suprised. Jack thought that Gerry's reaction w
"Yeah, let me take you home!" Jack nodded in agreement, without asking any more questions. Annelisse breathed a sigh of relief and Jack quickly said a quick goodbye to Gerry before the two young people left the Hall's Boutique. A little hurriedly, Jack called out for George. However, before Annelisse could mention her address to Jack's personal bodyguard, George had already preceded her by saying, "I already know, Miss." Annelisse frowned in surprise, while Jack was so impatient that he immediately asked, "How did you know?" "Mr Hugh asked me to ... You know what I mean, don't you?" George hesitated to explain. Jack immediately felt bad for Annelisse, but the girl didn't seem to care and waved her hand. She then said, "It's no big deal. I can understand what your grandfather did. My mum and dad would have done the same thing if they knew about me being with a man." Jack stared with an amazed expression. It turned out that the girl was an uncomplicated person, even simpler tha
Annelisse turned around and looked at Jack guiltily. "Um, this is my fault, Jack." "What are you talking about? Why are you saying that?" Jack asked. Annelisse swallowed, she really felt bad for Jack. Jack said again, "What do you mean by photos, Anne?" Annelisse scratched her right ear and Eric was getting impatient with his little sister. He interjected, "If you can't talk to him. What if I do it for you?" Annelisse shook her head firmly, "No. I have to tell Jack. I have to tell Jack." "Are you sure you can? I see you don't have the courage to do it," Eric said with a smile. Annelisse gave her brother an exasperated look and continued, "Jack, I ... don't know how they found out, but apparently those damn reporters knew that I was working at the Morland Group." "I'm not sure when they found out either. But it's certain that when we went to Ferlo Street, there were reporters taking pictures of us," Annelisse said rather timidly. "So?" Jack asked in a casual tone. Annelisse s
That feeling of doubt made Jack uncomfortable. But he knew for sure he still had to hide his true identity until the young man was truly ready to appear in public. He couldn't reveal her identity carelessly, even though he knew that Annelisse's parents had been good friends with his parents. Jack then shook his head vigorously, as if rejecting the idea that had occurred to him. Annelisse, who was also starting to think that perhaps what her father and mother meant was that Jack's face was similar to his parents, immediately helped the young man. "Dad, Mom. That can't be happening. Jack isn't the son of a businessman or anything like that. He ... he just lives with his grandfather," Annelisse explained, glancing at Jack. The girl wanted to ask Jack for approval to tell the truth but still hid the real facts. Eric increasingly didn't like hearing her sister's words, the man immediately looked down at Jack with an unfriendly gaze, "So, you don't even have a family?" The young
Jack suddenly turned to the girl who was looking at him with a questioning look. Oh, if Annelisse had known what his grandfather was saying, Jack would have been so embarrassed. He could not let that girl know about that. Luckily he had arranged for the call to only be heard by her. I am safe, Jack thought. "Grandpa, it's not like you imagined. We're ... just friends and he happens to be my coworker at the company," Jack explained without looking at Annelisse. Annelisse was now guessing what Jack was talking about with her grandfather to mention him. "Hm, I see. But ... you're interested in her, right? Don't try to hide it from your grandfather." Hugh said while holding back a smile and seemed to deliberately tease his grandson. "Grandpa." Jack called out in a soft tone for his grandfather to let him go and stop discussing the matter. However, it didn't seem to soften his grandfather's heart. Hugh Morland continued to ask, "Uh, we just met. We've only been living together for
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,"
