Chapter 151 – 200
Chapter 151
“That’s right!” Upon noticing James was siding with her, Tanya rolled her eyes at her brother and said,
“He was just answering a call. Perhaps he had some emergency or else he wouldn’t have just bolted so
suddenly, right?”
When jackie arrived at the front door, he stood there for a brief moment before a ck sports car sped
toward him and stopped right where he was.
A beautiful woman wearing a hat and a pair of shades sat in the car. She was dressed quite fashionably.
“Master…” Lana called out excitedly when she saw jackie.
“What did you call me?” jackie’s expression dimmed as it seemed his apprentice’s memory was bad.
Fortunately, no one else was there or his identity would have been exposed.
“Sorry, well, I was too happy. So…” Lana let out an awkwardugh. After that, she said, “Cough, cough.
jackie, hurry up and get in, we’ll talk as we walk!”
“Alright!”
jackie immediately got into the car as it swiftly sped off.

“Good lord, isn’t that the bodyguard, jackie? He had a hot woman pick him up?”
“Yeah, and even in a sports car too!”
“Oh, this jackie fellow is far too mysterious even if he’s more powerful than Assistant Commander
Harvey. Or else, Miss Tanya wouldn’t have hired him for 20 million dors per month now, right? That’s
way too high!”
“It seemed normal for this man to have a beautiful woman pick him up and be hired with a 20 million
dors sry though!”
A few bodyguards that were posted at the door started discussing amongst themselves upon witnessing
what had ured.
…
“Why are you dressed like that? It’s the first time I’ve seen you wearing a skirt!” jackie felt helpless as he
stared at the long legs next to him.
Lana had always dressed in military fatigues in front of him. Although she was an average-looking
woman, jackie had never once viewed her as a woman.
Today however, Lana’s appearance surprised him.
Lana was wearing a in-looking skirt that only covered half her thighs. She also wore a pair of earrings
and had lipstick on. She looked very feminine. Not to mention, her legs were very white, so much that
they seemed to re at people’s eyes. However, perhaps it was due to her constant workout, that her
leg muscles looked quite firm and seemed strong when viewed by others. A woman like her seemed
quite exotic indeed.
“I’m still a woman, what’s so strange about me wearing a skirt? Besides, I’m already discharged and the
military fatigues have all been returned. Do you understand? So, should I always act like a man, d in
full military fatigues, with a permanent bitter look on my face?”
While Lana was driving, she said, “Sigh, I’m bored to death these days. All kinds of major powers want
so badly to meet me. Theye to my manor every night to the point where I’m almost passing out from
it! You know that I hate business interactions too so I didn’t even bother meeting them!”
“Wait, you didn’t meet them? How did you tell them that you wouldn’t be seeing them?” jackie teased her
about it after giving it some thought.
“I hired a housekeeper and some servants! Besides, I’m not even short in cash now right, jackie?” Lana
chuckled as she could not help herself from secretly ncing at jackie. She uttered silently in her heart
that her master actually looked even more handsome without his military fatigues!
Chapter 152
“Yes, yes, yes. Now that we’re at peace, you guys should rest and loosen up a little!”
jackie cracked a gentleugh and said, “Your Brother Abner sent me a text saying that he was too bored
and gonna go on a vacation.”
“Really? When Brother Johnson returned, he was swarmed in his vige by the people. I heard there are
lots of people waiting to be autographed by him. Good lord, that scene though…” Lanaughed and said,
“That’s right, jackie, what about you? Does your wife and the others know your identity yet?”
“Nope!” The hint of sweet smile could be seen on jackie’s face. No one had ever seen a smile like that
back then. He said, “I don’t want to let them know about it for now. I’m afraid they might not be able to
ept my identity if I dropped this bombshell on them. Not to mention, I wish to live a peaceful and
undisturbed life.”
Lanamented again after hearing jackie’s statement. She said, “Oh how I envy you. If I had known
earlier, I wouldn’t have wanted this empty title or wished for it to be officially announced. Oh, how good
would it be if I can live peacefully. Now, all of Daxia knows what all nine of us, the Gods of War, look like.
If they didn’t, I wouldn’t even have to wear shades to go out!”
“I feel like you should be wearing a face mask. It’s not really safe just wearing a pair of shades.” jackie
teased her as he looked at her appearance.
The truth was, when Lana’s car was parked in front of him, he actually did not recognize that it was his
female disciple right away. It was only after he heard her voice that he realised it was her.
“Yeah, why didn’t I think of that? No, I have to put on a face maskter, especially in a crowded area. It’ll
be bad if some random wealthy kid recognizes me!” Lana said immediately.
“Oh right, the ce that you’ll be taking me to, what kind of ce is it?” jackie asked after some thought.
“An auction house!” While Lana drove, she said, “I heard that someone has gotten their hands on a
treasure. It’s a luminous pearl the size of a ping pong ball and is very special. If it’s ced on a bed
frame, it can help in one sleep and there are even rumors that it can extend one’s life.”
“There’s an auction house in this city?” jackie frowned and said, “That luminous pearl is pretty big, right?
We should take a look!”
“Yeah! Do you know what its base price is?” After thinking about it for a bit, jackie said, “We can bid for
that thing since it’s the old master’s seventieth birthday soon and I’m still racking my head over what to
get him!”
“Really? If you want to bid for it then do it!” Lanaughed. “The main purpose today is to bid for that
thing. This auction house usually auctions famous paintings or antiques. Today’s luminous pearl is being
auctioned privately and not many people know about it. They only informed some first and second-ss
aristocratic families and didn’t even bother with the third-ss aristocratic families!”
“How did you know about it then?” jackie was surprised as he curiously asked.
“Best you don’t bring that up. Those random wealthy sons and all wanted to butter up to me. Did you
know that as I was going out, I had just walked out the door when a few wealthy sons all came up to me
with roses? These people don’t actually love me though, all they see is my connections and power!”
jackie said helplessly, “Best that you wear a face mask outter. Wear it like how the celebrities do or
else you’ll be recognized.”
“Oh, how nice your life is. If no one knows who you are, you don’t have to worry about people bothering
you when you’re walking on the streets!” Lana was envious as she looked at jackie beside her. She said,
“You even had your long term ns all thought out!”
Chapter 153
“So in order for me to not expose my identity, you should bid for that luminous pearl in a moment!” jackie
said while chuckling.
“Yes!” As she said that, Lana let out a bitterugh.
At this moment, there were around a dozen bodyguards dressed in a ck suits and standing by the
auction house’s door. They looked full of spirit and stood tall. They seemed quite powerful.
“Are you both here for the auction?” One of the bodyguards asked when he spotted jackie and Lana.
“Of course!” Lana smiled as she casually took out a ck card and waved it in front of him.
“Please,e in!” The moment the bodyguard noticed it, he immediately took a step back and allowed
them to enter.
When they arrived at the auction, it was already crowded inside. Both jackie and Lana found a spot at
the back by the corner and got seated.
‘What is that jackie fellow doing here?” It was at this moment that Young Master rk, who was already
seated and was waiting for the auction, noticed jackie.
He frowned and looked at Lana who was beside jackie before mumbling, “That’s not right, the woman
next to him isn’t Selena. Moreover, who is that woman anyway? Her body isn’t too bad, and she looks
quite sexy and elegant too!”
As he mumbled that, Ken’s eyes lit up and said, “This woman isn’t dressed normally. Those clothes are
quite expensive too. Even the watch around her wrist is a luxury watch that costs a few million dors.
Could jackie be looking for a wealthydy behind Selena’s back?”
Ken felt delighted at that thought. He originally felt quite hopeless but now, a ball of me burned in his
heart once again. Dan had advised him not to cross jackie. Moreover, even Marshal Dennis advised him
the same thing that day. Although he was slightly confused, he still did not dare to act rashly or confront
him directly. That was because of the fact that if both of them were afraid of jackie, it meant that jackie
must have been quite a capable fellow. However, it would be much easier if there were problems in
Selena’s and jackie’s rtionship that would make Selena willingly leave jackie.
With that thought, he instinctively took out his cell phone and secretly took a picture of them both.
“Such a shame that they’re not acting intimate. It doesn’t prove anything if they don’t hold hands!”
“However, that woman is wearing a facemask along with a pair of shades. It’s obvious that they have
some secrets between them that they’re unwilling to share. This wealthydy might be afraid of her
husband recognizing her, which prompted her to wear a facemask! I didn’t expect that jackie would be a
sugar baby for money!” Ken chuckled by himself while staring at the picture.
“Oh, if it isn’t Young Master rk? You came too! What are you doing here mumbling to yourself?”
After Micheal, who was a row behind, noticed Ken, he immediately sat next to him as he asked that
question.
“You’re here too?” Ken was stunned and looked at jackie’s direction as he said, “I saw a familiar face!”
“How did hee in?” When Micheal looked toward the direction Ken was ncing toward, his
expression instantly dimmed as he noticed jackie.
Chapter 154
”Yeah. I also feel weird about it. What is he doing here!”
Ken cracked a calm smile then said, “Young Master Wilson, look at the woman next to him. She’s
obviously a rich woman! Do you know why she’s dressed the way she is, with a pair of shades and
facemask?”
“She’s afraid of people recognizing her, of course!” Micheal chuckled coldly. He was no fool, so why did
he even bother asking such a foolish question?
“Think about it, why is she afraid of being recognized by people?”
“Since she’s a wealthydy, of course she’s afraid of her husband recognizing her!”
“Since she’s afraid of her husband recognizing her, what does that mean? Well, it means that her
rtionship with jackie isn’t that straightforward then!”
Ken analyzed everything in great detail.
“Yeah, I didn’t expect this jackie fellow to be such a f*ckboy. He kept going on and on about doing
everything for Selena and yet, we didn’t expect him to cheat on Selena behind her back with a wealthy
lady!”
Micheal clenched his fist, his gaze filled with anger.
If not because of jackie, how could Selena possibly be a mother now? She might have still been a young,
beautiful, and innocent flower waiting to be picked by him!
After Micheal was done speaking, he also secretly took out his cellphone and took a picture of them. He
said, “If Selena saw this picture, I’m not sure what she’ll think!”
However, there was something he did not expect. Both jackie and Lana noticed when he took the picture.
“ jackie, I think someone was taking our picture. I wouldn’t be recognized even after the mask and
shades I decided to wear, right?” Lana whispered to jackie where she sat.
“No way!” jackie was stunned as he looked toward their direction. His expression immediately dimmed as
he said, “It’s Ken from the rk family and Micheal from the Wilson family. Both of them are my wife’s
pursuers.”
“Really?” Lana looked at them and said, “I heard she’s a beauty and there are lots of wealthy pursuers
after her. Even if she’s not pretty, her heart’s pretty. She must have suffered a lot for the five years that
you’ve left, right?”
“Yeah. I’m truly sorry for their five years of suffering. Hence, I’ll make it up to them!” jackie let out a bitter
laugh and said, “After so long, I’m nning to arrange for her an unforgettable wedding of a lifetime!”
“Oh, how envious I am of you two. You two are a perfect match and literally made for each other!” After
Lana said that, she felt slightly envious in her heart since she felt that she had never seen a man more
capable and outstanding than jackie.
“That’s weird, when have you learned how to butter me up?” jackie said with a gentle chuckle as he
looked at Lana.
“I’m speaking the truth! What do you mean butter you up?” Lana cracked a bitter smile.
“Oh good lord, it’s that b*stard again!” It was at this moment that the Hugo family’s Young Master Neil
walked through the front door with a bunch of hisckeys.
When he noticed jackie, he instantly and furiously clenched his fist. He could never forget the incident
where he was beaten to a pulp by jackie for trying to flirt with Selena upon noticing her beauty as she
rode the electric scooter.
Ever since then, he had employed some ruffians to take care of jackie along with him. However, he never
expected them to be so useless as they stumbled away from jackie after getting beaten by him. On the
other hand, he was violently pped by jackie a few times. So much so, his entire face was swollen and
he dared not return home that day. He was afraid of being teased by his family if they saw him in such a
state. He did not expect to run into jackie, who was fully prepared to bid for the luminous pearl today.
Chapter 155
“Who is that, young master?” One of hisckeys looked at jackie. He had no clue who jackie was.
“That was the bastard who beat me upst time. Goddammit, I can’t let him get away this time!” Neil was
incredibly furious as he told that to the man next to him.
“This is an auction house, young master. It’s not appropriate to fight here!”
The man immediately advised him. He then said, “Although I’m powerful, it would mean I’m disrespecting
the boss of this auction house if I were to cause a scene here!”
“You?” Neil looked at the man in a suit. Since his father had hired a few bodyguards for him recently, he
could not help but chuckle coldly and say, “You should forget about it. You’re no match for him. I
employed about 20 ruffians back then and they were all still no match for him!”
After he was done saying that, he immediately continued, “Let’s do it this way, you can go out there and
get me 50 to 60 people. Look for people under Old Roger. Although they are more expensive to hire,
they are quite powerful. Some of them are also quite ruthless. Money isn’t a problem as long as I can
take care of him!”
“But young master, we can’t actually fight here!” The middle-aged man had a helpless look on his face.
Neil was speechless for a moment before he furiously red at the man. He said, “What’s wrong with my
father to hire an idiot as my bodyguard? I wasn’t asking you to beat him up here, right? All I’m telling you
to do is to look for some people who will wait for him to get out of the auction house so that we can take
care of him somewhere else!”
The middle-aged man had a very bitter look on his face. However, all he could do was nod as he said,
“Fine, fine. I’ll get to it now. As for the money though…”
“I’ll transfer it over to you right now but those ruffians shouldn’t cost that much. Give them a few ten
thousand dors to a million and that should be enough. I’ll transfer four million to you first.”
Neil swiftly took out his phone and transferred the cash over to him.
The man took a nce at jackie and silently thought just how unfortunate it was for him to have crossed
the vengeful Neil Hugo. He would have rather jackie crossed anyone else but him.
It was only after the necessary arrangements were made that Neil looked for a seat on the side.
Aside from the Hugo family, there were also several more second-ss aristocratic families who came to
the auction.
However, the boss of the auction house did not even bother to inform the third-ss aristocratic families
like the Taylor family about it as a third-ss aristocratic family would be unwilling to spend on a treasure
like this even if they came.
Besides, this luminous pearl was a special pearl. It had the effects of extending one’s life and aiding
one’s sleep. Therefore, it could be considered a very rare treasure.
Of course, aside from the second-ss aristocratic families, even some wealthy merchants rushed over
when they received news about it.
They were interested in witnessing such a treasure. Since a natural pearl the size of a ping-pong ball
was something they had never heard of before, they were here to see it for themselves.
“The members of the Young family are here!”
Soon, a wave of cheers roared out since even the Young family, a first-ss aristocratic family, came.
To make a surface-level powerparison, the most powerful family in the entire Eastfield was naturally
the Drake family.
However, aside from the Drake family, there were four other families who had simr power as the Drake
family. They were called the Four Major Families bymonfolk. These families were all considered
first-ss aristocratic families. The Young family was one of the Four Major Families.
After both jackie and Lana heard the announcement, they turned around to look over. In that instant, both
their eyes lit up. A youngdy with slightly curly long hair that was dressed in a long white dress and
holding onto an adorable bag appeared. She walked inside with a faint smile on the edge of her lips.
Beside that, the youngdy was followed by a few bodyguards. With a single nce, anyone would feel
incredibly refreshed just by seeing her.
“It’s thedy of the Young family, Rue Young!”
After a wealthy merchant noticed her, his eyes lit up as he said, “In this younger generation of beautiful
women, this youngdy here could easilypete with Selena Taylor!”
Chapter 156
“That depends! Some people would think that Selena looks the best and seems more feminine because
when a woman reaches the age of 25 to 26, they look their most attractive!”
“However, Rue is an incredibly innocent young woman and besides, she’s only 22 and single. Ever since
people heard about Selena’s marriage and how she already has a child, those young masters who
pursued her back have now moved onto Rue!”
“Besides, I think they both were one of a kind beauties. Oh, that’s right, isn’t that Goddess of War
currently in Eastfield? That woman is also a beauty as her body is incredible and seems very exotic. It’s
such a shame that her status is too high and it would be virtually impossible to get her!”
Another wealthy merchant said that with a bitter smile after giving it some thought.
“Hey listen, someone’s calling you a beauty?” After jackie heard their discussions, he could not help
himself from teasing Lana.
Lana raised her head pridefully and said, “Well of course, but what do they mean by exotic? I’m
offended. Don’t I look like an innocent, young woman at first nce?”
At that moment however, Ken and Micheal had actually approached them.
“Oh my, isn’t this Selena’s husband, jackie?” Standing in front of jackie, Micheal intentionally eximed it
loudly as if he was worried that people around would be unable to hear him.
Just as expected, many people, including Rue who had just arrived, turned to look at their direction after
hearing him say that.
“That’s Selena’s man?”
“He’s not dead after serving in the military for five years? He’s already back?”
“There are lots of veterans returning recently. It seems like that takeout delivery boy isn’t dead yet and
has followed them back!”
Instantly, sounds of discussions started filling the room.
“Michael, right? Young Master Ken is here as well, so this is such a coincidence indeed. What exactly is
today, to have run into quite a few of my romantic rivals?” jackie chuckled but his expression soon
dimmed. He said, “It’s not a good habit to have a crush on someone else’s wife. Not to mention, you
guys are quite the clingy type even though she clearly has no feelings for either of you!”
“You…” Both Micheal and Ken clenched their fists at the same time. They were incredibly infuriated since
this bastard had the audacity to call them clingy.
However, a woman like Selena was someone they were willing to be clingy for.
” jackie, you’re trying to intentionally infuriate me, aren’t you? I won’t fall for your tricks!”
It did not take long for Ken to smile again as he looked at Lana beside jackie. He then spoke with a
smile, “Who’s this woman, jackie? You both intentionally chose to sit in such a secluded spot in a wide
open hall. Don’t you dare tell me you don’t know her!”
“is it really that important to know if I know her? What does it have anything to do with you?” In jackie’s
eyes, both of them were nothing more than annoying flies.
“Oh please, you don’t dare to say, right?”
jackie’s reply made them even more erratic. Even if jackie told them about their rtionship, they would
not dare validate it anyway. However, jackie was not being bold enough to exin anything about their
rtionship. Hence in their eyes, jackie was guilty and afraid of people finding out about how he was
being a sugar baby to someone else.
“I have no reason to answer to you!” jackie chuckled coldly while feeling extremely dissatisfied.
Chapter 157
“Sigh, that woman might be the wife to some wealthy merchant, right? The watch around her wrist costs
more than a million though. However, the only thing I’m curious about is why she’s wearing a mask and a
pair of shades?” Ken sighed before saying, “So I believe even without me saying anything, anyone smart
enough would be able to guess the rtionship you two share, right?”
“There’s no way, right? jackie is actually Selena’s husband? That’s impossible, right? He has the
audacity to look for other women when Selena is so stunning?”
When a middle-aged wealthy merchant heard that, he was shocked.
“Who knows what the reason is. Look at that wealthydy, she’s not that old, plus her body is amazingly
exotic. Man, for a wealthydy like her, even if she doesn’t give me any money, I would also be willing to
do other things with her! Let alone if she’s giving him money!”
Another elderly man could not hold himself back as he secretly gulped while looking at Lana’s sexy legs.
“Yeah, I would also be willing if I were him!”
A young master from a second-ss aristocratic family beside them was also extremely excited. He said,
“Even if I’m the one forking out money, I would also volunteer myself!”
“I’m not the wife of a wealthy merchant. Besides, why does it concern you as to what kind of rtionship
jackie and I share?” Lana’s expression turned bitter and her voice sounded extremely cold. This made
everyone feel as if the entire room’s temperature had dropped by several degrees.
That strong statement had actually silenced many people there who were discussing them.
“Of course it concerns me!” Micheal finally spoke up at that moment and said, “That statement proves
that jackie is cheating on his wife to be a sugar baby. if he’s really that capable, we wouldn’t make fun of
him if he’s able to find a few more women to apany him. The unfortunate thing is, however, wouldn’t
a man feel ashamed to be a sugar baby?”
“That’s right, he’s even a veteran! How could he sink so low upon returning home to look for a wealthy
lady? Is it because he could no longer bear the military life? It’s such an embarrassment to veterans!”
Ken and Michael were insulting him as if singing a duet.
“If you guys don’t shut up, believe me that I’ll end you both!” Lana could no longer hold her anger back
since she felt extremely insulted for a God of War to bebeled a sugar mommy.
Not to mention, what offended her most was that these imbeciles were actually insulting the Supreme
Warrior, the most respected individual in all of Daxia, by calling him a sugar baby. They should have
known that he was Lana’s master. Although she could bear being insulted, she could never allow her
master to suffer the same fate!
“Look, she’s getting mad now, isn’t she? Were we right then? Look around you, this is an auction house
and you wouldn’t dare beat someone up in a public ce, right?”
Ken had a smug look on his face as he said, “Come on then, you’re a woman and yet you wish to assault
us? Do you actually think that I, Young Master Ken, am an ipetent match against a woman?”
Lana immediately stood up and the instant she clenched her fist, an immensely menacing aura
emanated from her body. Although such a menacing aura was invisible. However, it was still very
intimidating as it unknowingly startled both Ken and Micheal to take a step back.
Upon noticing a fight was about to break out, jackie grabbed Lana’s wrist and said, “This is an auction
house. We are here for the auction and besides, if we butt heads with trash like them, it’d be
embarrassing to our status!” jackie’s expression was extremely calm.
“Good point!” It was only then that Lana calmed down and got seated again.
They were lucky that this was not a battlefield because if it was, those trash in front of them would have
already been dead a hundred times over.
“keep pretending then. I believe you both know the consequences of assaulting us and cannot bear it!”
Michael chuckled before telling jackie, “Say jackie, what do you think will happen if we tell your wife
about you meeting a wealthydy here? What would she think?”
Chapter 158
“you both sure know how to worry now, don’t you!” jackie chuckled then told Ken, “Ken, do you know
there’s a saying ‘know your ce’? You should really learn from it. I believe Dennis had reminded you
about it previously when you tried to forcefully demolish our home, right? Are you sure…you still want to
go against me?”
After Ken heard that threat, his expression instantly dimmed as he started to worry. Due to how powerful
jackie was, not even their Prime Fighter Dan would be a match for him if he actually was offended and
was out for his rk family’s blood. That would be very bad for them!
It was only with that thought that he said, “I-I won’t go against you or out my way to make things difficult
for you. However, I’m only here to offer you a word of advice. Selena’s so nice to you and yet you have
the audacity to do this for money…”
“Young Master Ken, I somehow feel like you’re slightly afraid of him?” Micheal was no fool and was
instantly able to notice Ken’s anxious behavior. He frowned.
“Are you kidding? Me, Young Master Ken, is afraid of him? Oh please, he’s nothing but a takeout delivery
boy. How could I possibly be afraid of him when he’s only been in the military for a few years?” Ken
immediately pped his chest in a forceful show of courage.
“Fair point! Let’s go, I’m actually quite interested to see how you would exin this to Selena once the
truth gets out.” After Micheal said that, he left with Ken.
Besides, their main purpose here was to see if jackie had actually be a sugar baby for money.
From the earlier situation when that wealthydy got agitated, it was evident enough that their
rtionship was not that straightforward. This alone was enough for them.
“That’s Selena’s husband?” Rue took a look at jackie and frowned as well. She said in a soft tone, “I
didn’t expect him to do such a thing for money!”
After a moment, three more first-ss aristocratic families had arrived as well.
They were the Mont family’s young master, Grayson Mont, a fatdy from the George family, Sharon
George, and the master of the Roy family, Robert Roy.
After all three major families arrived, another round of cheers and apuse roared from the crowd.
The members of the Drake family arrived soon after. This time it was Timothy who came with a few
bodyguards from the Drake family.
After Timothy arrived, it did not take long for him to notice jackie. His expression instantly turned bitter.
He said, “Why did hee here? Who’s that woman next to him? He had the audacity to not take his
bodyguard job seriously and insteade over for a date?”
Timothy looked at jackie from a distance. He felt very displeased in his heart. However, he soon decided
to pretend not to see him and walked alongside the members of the Four Major Families as they got
seated in the front most seats which were intentionally reserved for them.
After a few minutes went by, an elderly man with a short and quirky hairstyle walked up the auction stage
with a smile.
“What a crowd we have here today. Even some wealthy merchants who were uninformed by us of this
event are also present here today!”
The elderly man nced down the stage and spoke with a smile, “Let me start with an introduction, I’m
today’s supervisor…”
After the introduction was over, the elderly man said, “There is only one item we’ll be auctioning off today
and it is none other than a luminous pearl we had previously obtained. This item here is a precious
treasure indeed. Not only is it the size of a ping-pong ball, it has the effect of extending one’s lifespan
and if it’s ced near one’s bed, it will aid their sleep.”
“Alright already! Just tell us how much the base value is! Everyone here is very busy!” The Mont family’s
young master seemed quite impatient as he bluntly said that.
“Yeah! I still have to go for lunch soon!” Sharon, who had an extremely fat face, mumbled her words
unclearly while munching on some popcorn. She was obviously a heavy eater. Judging from the size of
her body, she might have weighed around 240 pounds.
Chapter 159
Grayson looked at the fatdy next to him and was instantly speechless. This woman was really getting
fatter. If this kept going, she would have a hard time getting married.
However, when he turned around to look at Rue on the other side, he felt like his mood had instantly
recovered. It seemed Rue was quite the eye candy since she looked prettier the longer he stared at her.
“alright then. The base value of this object starts at 10 million! Of course its value far exceeds 10 million
dors and I believe everyone here knows it. Therefore, our rule for incremental bidding is that it cannot
be lower than a million!”
The old man chuckled on the stage and hammered his gavel down immediately as he continued, “This
auction will officially begin now. This treasure belongs to the highest bidder!”
“A million? Even I’m embarrassed to call out a million dors!”
A wealthy merchant immediately stood up and said, “This item can slow down a person’s metabolism
slightly, so it has an effect of extending a person’s lifespan. If this item is ced beside a pillow for an
extended period of time, extending a person’s life by two to three extra years shouldn’t be a problem,
right?”
After he was done speaking, he raised his hand immediately and said, “I’ll offer 20 million dors!”
As jackie stared at the object from a distance, he knew for sure that this item could aid one’s sleep.
However, he was not too sure about its effect of extending one’s lifespan.
“Can it really extend a person’s lifespan?” Lana, who was watching from the side, looked at jackie before
asking that question.
“I’m not sure but who cares? It’s still a treasure! I have to get it!” jackie said after giving it some thought.
“Alright then. Since I haven’t given you a gift yet, I’ll give this to you then!” Lana nodded since she knew
jackie did not wish to expose his identity. As such, it seemed that she had to be the one to buy it for
jackie.
“20 million? I’ll raise it to 30 million!” After Sharon was done eating her popcorn, she wiped her hand with
a tissue before raising her hand and giggling as she spoke.
“Oh no, it seems that the George family also has their eyes on it. At this rate, it’ll be impossible for
anyone who wanted to make this a simple purchase!”
“Yeah. Since everyone is raising it by 10 million, this really isn’t an auction meant for us to participate!”
A few wealthy merchants who were here to spectate could only crack a bitter smile as their initial
intentions werepletely shattered as they saw how the situation was being yed out.
“Alright! Miss Sharon truly knows her stuff. The offer price is now at 30 million, is there anyone who
wants to bid?”
The elderly man chuckled and nodded his head on stage. They estimated that this pearl would be valued
at two hundred million dors!
That was because this pearl was actually worth that much.
“I will. I’ll raise it to 40 million!” Ken eximed.
“Young Master Ken, I’d stand by you if this was anything else. However, I too, have my eye on this toy!”
Micheal chuckled and immediately raised his hand and said, “I’ll raise it to 50 million!”
After he was done, he turned to look at jackie and secretly muttered in his heart, “If I win the bid for this
toy and give it to his wife, I refuse to believe that she’ll still stay loyal to him for a gift this expensive! Not
to mention, I’ll show her the picture of him and that wealthydy. Perhaps, in a fit of rage, she’ll
impulsively cheat on you!”
With that thought, Micheal silently gulped. Selena had also impulsively given birth to Kylie with jackie in a
fit of rage, right?
Chapter 160
“Why don’t you make a bid for meter? Just raise a random number. People will assume you’re my
lackey. That way, your identity won’t be exposed!” Lana said that to jackie after some thought.
jackie nodded and said, “Sure, I want to mess with those two anyway!”
After he said that, jackie immediately raised his hand and said, “51 million!”
In that instant, everyone turned to look at him since the brat had only raised it by a million.
Even Lana was embarrassed by him because everyone else was raising the bid by multiples of 10
million and this man had disrupted the rhythm by only raising it by a million.
“Wow, jackie, I didn’t expect that wealthydy of yours to be quite rich herself. She’s actually taking part
in the auction!”
Michael was stunned. He then spoke with a smile, “Us members of wealthy families have already begun
competing amongst ourselves. Therefore, you merchants should just forget about it. Just keep your
money and stick to investments, alright!”
“Raising the bid in multiples of a million? It seems they couldn’t bear to part with their money?”
Immediately, Neil started chuckling. He then raised his hand and said, “I’ll raise to sixty million! You can
ignore jackie’s bid now!”
After hearing that statement, the expressions of many wealthy merchants grew bitter. It was already
obvious for them that they would be unable to snatch the item. Although they could stillpete now,
they would soon be unable to withstand the pressure from the major families.
Besides, even if they fought desperately to snatch the item, would this not offend them? That was
something they needed to consider seriously.
“Young Master Neil, are you certain you’ll be able to ignore my bid price? You truly underestimate my
friend here!” jackie chuckled and bluntly eximed, “A hundred million!”
“One-one hundred million?” The edge of Neil’s mouth twitched violently. Was this guy just not willing to
part with his money earlier? How could he casually raise the value by so much?
“This guy showed his hand without beating around the bush!”
The Mont family’s Grayson looked at jackie in surprise. He eximed, “This guy sure is interesting!”
Ken leaned closer to Micheal’s side and said, “Young Master Michael, somehow something feels very off
to me. How could that wealthydy be so rich? There’re very few wealthy merchants who could so
casually offer up a hundred million, let alone a girl. If this woman was using her husband’s money, it
would be impossible for her to offer a hundred million dors with so little regard. At the very least, she’ll
need her man’s permission to do so, right? Could this be her own money? Is she a female entrepreneur?
This seems to be the only reason that makes sense if she can spend that kind of money in such a
confident manner.”
Micheal also had a puzzled look as he said, “However, don’t we know pretty much every wealthy woman
in Eastfield? How could I have absolutely no recollection of anyone who could so casually fork out a
hundred million dors and let alone, at such a young age? I believe she’s a secret mistress to some
major wealthy man or else, it would be impossible for me to not know her.”
“this will definitely put a stop to regr merchants bidding now!” A wealthy merchant who had originally
intended to offer a 70 million bid let out a bitterugh. He had nowpletely given up.
However, the stunt had made many people skeptical of Lana’s identity. Who exactly was she to make
such a ruthless offer!
“Oh my, you’re rich, you handsome man!” Sharon had not paid much attention to jackie earlier. However,
when she turned to look at him, she gulped as she thought about just how handsome he was. He
radiated masculinity and had the effect of making people fall in love with him at first sight.
As he noticed a fat woman gulping while staring at him, jackie’s heart shuddered as he said, “It’s not me
who’s rich, I’m merely helping my friend next to me to bid!”
“How handsome!” Sharon winked at him and said in her charmed state, “Hey handsome, do you want
me to bid for that item for you and give it to you to show you my feelings?”
jackie chuckled at that remark as he said, “Sorry, I’m not interested!”
Chapter 161
“Pfft! You’re no fun!” Sharon rolled her eyes at jackie, turned around, and said, “I’ll raise it to 120 million!
I’m buying it for my grandfather. He seems to have trouble sleeping recently!”
“150 million!”
At this moment, the Roy family who had previously been silent all this time immediately stood up and
raised his hand. He said, “I will raise the bid to 150 million dors!”
“The Roy family’s master also has his eye on it to make that kind of bid!”
“That’s too much! He’s truly from a first-ss aristocratic family. Spending 150 million dors just to buy
that luminous pearl? This price should be close to its original amount now!”
“I’m not sure if anyone else would still fight for it?”
Many of the wealthy merchants were inplete shock.
It had only taken a few couple minutes for the price to skyrocket from 10 million to a baffling 150 million
dors.
When Micheal thought about gaining Selena’s favor and how she might jump into his arms after giving
her such an expensive gift, he stood up while gritting his teeth and said, “180 million!”
“Good lord!”
At the side, Ken was shocked by his actions as he said, “Don’t act so rashly, Young Master Michael.
Although this pearl is precious, 180 million dors is way too much. Even I don’t desire fighting for it any
longer…”
“What do you know? I have my uses for it. This pearl might actually extend one’s lifespan. The staff from
the auction have validated the fact that if this pearl is ced next to one’s pillow for an extended period
of time, it can slow down one’s metabolism. Although its merely a subtle change, it’s actually quite
effective!”
Although Micheal was exining this to him, he was actually scoffing in his heart. He secretly muttered,
“Just wait till I give this pearl to Selena. After I sleep with her and gift her this in front of you while she’s in
my embrace, will you truly understand what winning in life means. You’ll be so envious of me then.”
Women often had little to no resistance toward certain precious items, not to mention that this would cost
him 180 million dors. Selena might actually be incredibly touched once she knew this. Moreover, after
he told Selena about jackie going to look for a wealthy woman, he could use the opportunity of her
despair tofort her. Would this not work out for him then? Micheal cracked a grin on the edge of his
lips while thinking of this.
“Nephew Michael, are you going to fight for the thing I have my eye on as well?”
Robert frowned before he smiled at Michael and said, “Are youngsters like you not uninterested in
enjoying life without any regard anymore? When did you start getting interested in treasures like these?”
Robert waspletely speechless as he assumed his high bid for the pearl would allow him to obtain it
without a doubt. However, he had never expected…
“Uncle Robert, this is an auction so it’s a free for all, right? There is no trivial rule that youngsters have to
submit to their elders now, is there?” Michael shrugged his shoulders.
The edges of Robert’s mouth violently twitched but in the end, he still spoke with a smile. “Fine. Since
you want to fight against me, then don’t mind if I do! 200 million!”
“Are you mad? The Roy family is a first-ss aristocratic family!” Ken instinctively tugged Michael as he
advised him with a soft tone.
“So what if it’s a first-ss aristocratic family? The Wilson family is very close to being one soon.
Besides, if a first-ss aristocratic family harbored hatred just because they lost a bid, wouldn’t that be
too petty? Are they not afraid of being mocked by people?”
When Michael started thinking about Selena’s body and how amazing it would feel to hug her, he felt
excited. Barely getting seated again, he immediately stood up and was just about to raise his hand to
make a bid.
At the moment, no one else dared to name their bids anymore. It seemed it was now down to him and
the Roy family. This item would soon be in his hands.
Right then, a loud sigh followed by azy sounding voice could be heard, instantly silencing the entire
room. “300 million.”
Chapter 162
“Good lord, I didn’t mishear, right? From 200 million jumping to 300 million, that’s a little too insane now,
isn’t it?”
“That wouldn’t be a mistake, right? Even if she’s just adding a hundred million without hesitation, it’s still
a hundred million dors. Even if it’s a first-ss aristocratic family doing so, they would still have to
seriously consider spending that much money!”
“Yeah, maybe 210 million dors is enough to win the bid? Wouldn’t saving 90 million dors be a good
thing?”
Plenty of wealthy merchants and second-ss aristocratic families werepletely shocked by what
had happened. Of course, the Roy family, the Four Major Families, and Timothy who had not even made
an offer yet, were also startled by the current oue.
What was even more unexpected to them was that the person who made the bid was none other than
jackie.
“ jackie, are you sure it’s 300 million dors? Have you asked the person beside you? You wouldn’t just
be randomly calling out numbers now, would you? If you call out a bid and actually win itter, you won’t
be able to escape if you can’t pay up!” Michael told jackie while pointing at him. He was incredibly furious
in his heart as he had already stood up with his hand raised, about to call out another bid. After the stunt
jackie had pulled however, he felt very humiliated.
“That’s right. Don’t just randomly call out numbers! Or else, don’t even think about leaving this ce!”
Timothy was also incredibly furious. The 200 million offer he made was already an astronomical amount
but with jackie’s 300 million dors offer, this felt like a tant insult to him.
jackie shrugged his shoulders as he responded. “Yeah, I did. I wasn’t just yelling random numbers!”
Upon noticing all the shocked and surprised expressions from everyone, Lana found the situation quite
hrious as she calmly nodded her head and said, “Yeah, I agreed to it. Don’t worry, money isn’t a
problem!”
Everyone was speechless. They found the woman’s identity even more mysterious since there were
actually very few wealthydies who could so casually fork out 300 million dors.
“320 milion!”
After giving it some thought, Timothy actually stood up and raised the price.
Plenty of people gasped as they did not expect anyone else to attempt to fight for it still when it had
already reached 300 million dors. This single luminous pearl was quite the hot sale now.
However, everyone calmed down when they thought about how massive the Drake family business was.
300 million dors would make plenty of second-ss aristocratic families feel immensely pressured as
the pearl’s effectiveness to extend a person’s lifespan was still unclear.
There would be an enormous difference between the current bid price and the pearl’s actual base price if
this was merely being used as a sleeping aid.
However, a price tag like this was absolutely no problem for the Drake family.
“330 million!” After gritting his teeth, the master of the Roy family, Robert, made another offer.
“350 million!” Unexpectedly, Rue actually stood up at this moment, raising the bid once again.
Michael was a little displeased. If he spent 300 million, his father would lecture him without a doubt as
thepany funds were a little tight at the moment. However, he thought about how he would be using
this pearl to win Selena’s heart and besides that, if he could win the bid, it would prove the Wilson
family’s strength and make them proud.
He hardened his heart and said, “360 million!”
“400 million!” jackie actually raised his hand and yelled out.
“You…” Michael was beyond furious as he somehow felt jackie seemed to be intentionally targeting him
by adding so much money on a whim.
Chapter 163
“420 million!!”
The corners of Timothy’s lips twitched repeatedly. Initially, he had assumed he would be able to win the
bid at 320 million dors. However, he did not expect…
As the price climbed up to around 400 million, it did not matter if they were Robert, Grayson, Sharon, or
anyone else for that matter, they all sat down immediately and dared not make another bid because the
price tag was now just too extravagant. Although they all wanted it, they were stopped in their tracks.
“500 milion!”
Once again however, jackie cracked a calm smile as he stood up and said, “My friend next to me said
500 million!”
Even the old man on the stage was incredibly excited. They were paid bymissions and a price like
this was something even he had not expected.
This time, even Timothy dared not raised the price further as he sat there alone, frowning depressingly.
“500 million, going once! If no one else is adding then this pearl will go to that beautiful woman’s hands!”
“500 million, going twice!”
The old man was beaming on stage, just waiting for the moment to hammer down his gavel.
“Wait!”
At that moment, Timothy stood up immediately.
He looked directly at Lana then said, “I’m very curious to know who this beautiful woman might be? 500
million dors for a single pearl isn’t too huge an amount but anyone with less than 1 billion dors in
hand wouldn’t make such an offer now, right?”
“Yeah, I’m very curious too. I don’t remember any wealthy women with a worth of over 1 billion
dors in Eastfield to be so young. You couldn’t possibly offer up 500 million when you only have ten in
total just to buy that pearl, right?” Michael had also stood up immediately and said that.
“Yeah, who is that woman exactly? That’s far too much money, right?”
“I also feel off about it. Furthermore, why did she wear a facemask and a pair of shades? Is she trying to
not be recognized by people?”
Most of the wealthy merchants started to discuss among themselves.
Lana scoffed in her heart and said, “I am not required to tell you guys who I am, right? Since this is an
auction, the item will naturally go to the highest bidder. If you guys are not raising the price, then that
luminous pearl is now mine!”
Many were silenced as her statement made sense.
“Alright then. 500 milion going thrice! Sold!” The old man who stood on stage overseeing the auction had
finally hammered down his gavel hard before telling Lana, “Pleasee on stage to have your card
swiped, miss!”
“No problem!!” Lana walked up the stage immediately while jackie followed beside her.
“I’m interested to see if you truly have that much money!”
Timothy was incredibly furious but could not do anything. What was more baffling to him was the fact that
jackie, a Drake family bodyguard, hade here during working hours to go on a date with her!
He was suspicious of jackie and was very sure that jackie was a sugar baby under that wealthy woman’s
care.
This wealthy woman might not be from Eastfield however, and most likely came from somewhere else.
However, how did she learn about the pearl that would be auctioned off today?
“She actually did it!”
It did not take long for everyone present to watch Lana sessfully pay the bill by swiping her card
through the machine. On the side, the old man ced the luminous pearl into an intricate, small box
before handing it over to Lana.
“I’ve got the men ready, boss. Since we’ll be beating jackie up in a few moments, why don’t we snatch
the luminous pearl from him as well!” Neil’s personal bodyguard behind him took a step forward and
whispered into his ear.
Chapter 164 Neil’s eyes lit up as he heard that. He cracked a sinister grin on the edge of his lips as he
said, “You sly fox. You’ve finally gained some intelligence! That pearl is worth 500 million so if we can
snatch it, we’ll make a huge profit!”
“that’s right!” The bodyguard chuckled as they both strode out.
When outside, they saw more than a handful of men standing at the za’s corner. One of the men was
dressed poorly and seemed very disheveled. Some of them wore sleeveless shirts, the exposed muscles
on their arms looking very intimidating.
“Young Master Neil’sckey said our main target this time is a young man. He said that although he
might seem very young on the surface, he’s actually really powerful. If not, we wouldn’t have gathered so
many men here!”
“Don’t be carelesster. They might be getting out soon.”
“Don’t worry, we have numbers on our side and our target is only one man. He might actually piss
himself out of fear from how many people are out to get him. Not to mention, we have a few ck belts
with us!” a chubby-looking man spoke while giggling.
“Fair point. Although we only have 60 people with us here, our overallbat power is really strong!”
The chubby-looking man clenched his fist and immediately demonstrated a flying kick. The pose looked
really cool. After he was done speaking, he immediately noticed Neil and his bodyguard were already
walking out.
While they were both outside, Neil’s bodyguard whistled. “Come on, let’s go!”
One of the men waved his hand and brought the group over to meet them.
“Keep an eye out for someone for me. There’s a woman beside the little brat. She’s wearing a pair of
shades and a mask. Besides just beating him up, I want you guys to also snatch a tiny wooden box from
that woman!”
Upon noticing jackie and the others were not out yet, Neil thought of something and said, “We will be
watching you guys from a nearby spot. Just pretend you don’t know us, alright? We can’t allow them to
know it was us who hired you guys, do you understand?”
“Alright, Young Master Neil! Don’t you worry, our mouths are sealed!”
The chubby-looking man assured confidently while pping his chest.
“Alright, don’t approach them directlyter. Just pretend you guys have noticed a beautiful woman and
intend to get your hands on her. With that, they wouldn’t think that you’re going to rob them!” After some
thought, Neil swiftly added that statement before leaving with his bodyguard.
As they had just arrived at the other end, more people were exiting the za.
It did not take long for the ruffians to spot both jackie and Lana.
“Damn, look at that woman’s body! It’s so exotic!”
Upon noticing the situation, a bald man silently gulped and said, “Especially those long legs. They’re firm
and strong. Not to mention, her breasts are huge!”
The chubby-looking man chuckled as he noticed how the bald man was behaving. He said, “I didn’t
expect you to be so lustful. Let’s go, you take the lead…”
“okay. Later when we’re snatching that box away from the woman, we can touch and feel her up to our
hearts content. This isn’t so bad after all!”
The bald man touched his bald head while mes of lust shone in his gaze as a group of people soon
strode over toward jackie and Lana.
“Hey, Young Master Michael, why do I get the feeling that those people are targeting jackie and that
woman?”
Chapter 165 Michael was having a private conversation with Ken nearby and it did not take them long to
notice the group of people.
“Yeah, they were swarmed immediately after exiting. Judging from the look of things, someone hired
them privately. Oh boy, jackie and that woman better be ready for a world of trouble real soon!”
Michael nodded as he made his spections.
“they might be after that luminous pearl!”
Ken chuckled and looked at Robert nearby as he said, “Could it be Robert’s doing? He was quite
aggressive during the auction earlier.”
“Aside from him, it’s also possible that it might be Timothy’s doing. I have a feeling that Timothy isn’t
someone who likes to be crossed!”
Michael looked at Timothy from the side.
At that moment, it did not matter who they were as everyone was interested to see what would happen
after noticing the situation happening nearby. They would all not be leaving for now.
“Hey girl, you ain’t too bad and that body sure is something!” The bald man’s face was beaming as he
approached Lana from the front and made that remark. He then said, “What are you wearing a facemask
for? Come on now, let big brother take a look. How do you look?”
The bald man had a teasing look on his face. They thought that if they roughed a woman up, the man
beside her would probably intervene since he was known to be quite capable.
When that happened, they could beat the man to a pulp and rob them blind at the same time. Of course,
he would not mind feeling the woman up as they snatched that prized item off her. He wanted to feel her
to his heart’s content and fully enjoy her body. However, they did not expect jackie to stand there beside
her,pletely unmoving.
“Weird, this man isn’t going to step in? Is he not afraid of what we’re going to do to this woman?”
The bald man was stunned but his arm was already reaching out toward Lana’s facemask. He wanted to
rip it off.
“Awesome! We can now see who that woman truly is!” Micheal had been long interested to see who
exactly the woman was. However, she had not taken the bait when they were intentionally provoking her
at the auction earlier. They could not do a thing if she did not want to take her facemask off.
He did not expect the opportunity toe so soon.
Grayson looked at hisckeys beside him. They were also nodding in agreement as it seemed they
wanted to know the woman’s identity and how she looked like, as well as how she was able to offer 500
milliion dors to win the bid for that luminous pearl.
Neil eyeballed his bodyguard as they were waiting to watch how the scene unfolded.
Especially jackie, as he had the audacity to p him three times previously. Today, he wanted him to
know just what ruthless actually meant.
Just when the bald man’s hand was about to touch Lana’s facemask, Lana grabbed his wrist in an
instant.
“Ah!” That bald man immediately yelled out in pain as the strength that came from Lana was terrifyingly
strong. A slight twitch was enough to make him nearly kneel and scream out in agony. Was this an actual
woman? How could this woman who was dressed in such feminine clothing possess such inhuman
strength?
“So, you think trash like you have the right to touch me?” When Lana was at the auction earlier, she was
forced to roll with the punches in order to prevent her identity from being exposed. She did not expect
that the instant she got out, she would be met with a situation like this. This instantly ignited the fury in
her chest.
“Dammit, I’m still a 6th degree ck belt taekwondo master!” The bald man gritted his teeth before giving
Lana a kick.
Chapter 166 “Good lord! That bald man happens to be ck belt taekwondo master and a 6th degree
even!”
“Yeah! That’s pretty impressive!”
Two wealthy merchants eximed immediately as they witnessed the scene.
“Thud!”
Unfortunately at the very next second, everyone waspletely baffled as they all saw Lana release his
wrist and immediately clench her fist, instantly connecting it with the man’s thigh.
A strong wave of force instantly sent the bald man flying as hended on the ground two meters away.
The bald man cried out in agony again when he crashed on the ground.
“So, it seems like a 6th degree ck belt is nothing more than this!” Lana chuckled, extremely
dissatisfied.
“That woman is actually this powerful?”
They were all shocked once again when as they watched what happened.
“F*ck it, let’s all go after them!”
The bald man gritted his teeth and when he picked himself off the ground, he realized that the skin on his
palms was all scraped off. He felt extremely humiliated as he was being watched by many powerful
people at the moment.
In that instant, those holding steel pipes immediately rushed forward all at once. Of course, there were
also some ck belt masters in the mix.
“Need help? Although you seem like you can handle yourself but as a gentleman, I should still ask!”
jackie had a calm look on his face as he stood on the side.
“I can take care of these scum!” There was no hint of fear from Lana as she stood to face these men who
were rushing at her. Rather, she approached them on her own ord.
It did not take long for such a baffling scene to ur happen. It did not matter if they were ck belt
masters or regr thugs, they allid agonizingly on the ground in less than two minutes while crying out
in pain.
“Tell me baldy, what are you guys after? Are you guys nning to snatch the luminous pearl off me?
Who hired you guys?” Lana had finally walked in front of the bald man and questioned him with a cold
tone. She emanated a terrifying aura.
“We’re dead now, young master. There were so many people, even several ck belt masters, and they
were still no match for them!”
“In the case that he rats us out, would theye after us?” Neil’s personal bodyguard was so terrified at
that moment, his legs trembling as he felt slightly weak. He heard Neil say that jackie was incredibly
powerful. Why did he get the feeling that this wealthydy was even more terrifying than jackie?
Although he had not seen jackie unleash his powers yet but based on thebat ability the woman had
showcased earlier, she could only be described as terrifying. He knew in his heart that he was absolutely
no match against her.
“Don’t panic, didn’t they mention earlier that their lips are sealed? They will never rat us out!” Neil was
also slightly worried in his heart. He tried to stay calm as he said that, gulping.
“We-we’re just passing through. We only came over after we noticed how attractive you are!” The bald
man cunningly replied, thinking quickly on his feet.
After he was done speaking, he noticed Lana’s long and sexy legs as heid on the floor. His nose had
nearly bled and with the angle he was in, it would have been embarrassing if she had not worn anything!
Chapter 167 “passing through?” Lana chuckled coldly and said, “I refuse to believe such a coincidence.
We had juste out and somehow, you guys just so happen to appear here? Not to mention, if you
were just passing through, why’d you bring along a crowd with you?”
“We were originally nning to pick a fight with someone else, hence the crowd. However when we were
passing through here, we noticed your huge breasts and perky butt. I could not hold myself back from
toying with you both.” The bald man continued.
Nearby, when Neil and his bodyguard heard that excuse, they let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately that
bald man was smart enough to spin an excuse and not rat them out.
At the very next second however, Lana immediately stomped on the back of the man’s hand. She spoke
in a terrifyingly voice. “Have I not been letting youe clean? I refuse to believe in coincidences! It’s a
good thing that you guys appeared after the auction was over!”
“I-I’m telling you the truth!” The bald man gritted his teeth and persisted with his lie.
The expressions of many men dimmed upon witnessing Lana’s ruthlessness. Although this woman was
attractive, any man of hers would have difficulties in controlling her.
Both Ken and his bodyguard grew anxious again.
“Let’s bail now in case they break, young master. I think this woman isn’t the type to talk things out! Not
to mention, jackie is also a dangerous man to mess with!” The bodyguard was already starting to
be afraid as he whispered that to Ken.
“It’s not wise to leave now, right? The others are spectating here so if we’re the only people to leave,
wouldn’t this show that we’re guilty? At that point, we might rat ourselves out before they do!” Neil’s
expression was dim since not a single person from either the Mont family, the George family, the Roys’,
or the Young’s had left the scene. Even the wealthy merchants were patiently waiting for a good show so
how could they leave then?
“you have a pretty tight mouth there!” Since Lana noticed the man was unwilling to spill the beans, she
aimed at a very specific spot on his body as sheughed and said, “Say, if I stomp my foot there, would
you actually be a eunuch?”
As soon as he heard that, the bald man nearly wet himself. That was far too brutal.
Lana was already lifting her leg when the bald man hesitated. Her high heels seemed too blinding to look
at.
“I…” The bald man looked at Neil’s direction and was not bold enough to speak since he had made a
promise to Young Master Neil. However, he also did not want to end up as a eunuch.
As Neil gritted his teeth, that imbecile actually pointed at him before yelling out, “Even if you kill me, I
won’t speak a damn word!”
Lana looked at Neil before releasing the man. She calmly said, “Your lips are definitely sealed alright!”
“Come over, Young Master Neil!” After she said that, Lana gestured at Neil toe over.
“Lady, prettydy. What are you calling me for?” Neil had a bitter look on his face and his voice sounded
shaky.
“So you expect me toe over and personally bring you here? You won’t live to see tomorrow if I have
to do so.” Lana eximed coldly.
“You’re not afraid now, are you, Young Master Neil? So you’re a coward then, Young Master Neil?” jackie
cackled out loud with a disdainful look on his face.
Young Master Neil gritted his teeth and walked over. He said, “What’s there to be afraid of, it’s not my
doing anyway. Therefore, why should I be afraid? This is trulyical!”
“Exactly, we’re not afraid!” His personal bodyguard also followed behind immediately. He then furiously
told the bald man who was lying on the ground, “Who the hell are you? Why are you blindly pointing at
Young Master Neil? Are you trying to frame our Young Master Neil?”
Chapter 168 “Truly unexpected. It was actually Young Master Neil’s doing!”
On another side, Ken frowned and said, “Why did Neil do that?”
“I’ve never heard of Neil having a grudge against jackie before and he didn’t pursue Selena as well,
right?”
“From the look of things, he is most likely after the luminous pearl! He doesn’t wish to spend money on it
so he had someone else rob it for him! I didn’t expect that woman to be so powerful!”
Michael began to specte. None of them were fools and it was obviously Neil’s doing when the bald
man pointed directly at them instead of anyone else.
“It’s unclear what exactly Neil was thinking of to take such a risk when her identity is still a mystery!” On
the other hand, Grayson chuckled coldly.
Sharon waspletely star-struck as she only stared at jackie. She could no longer hold herself back as
she walked up with a few people beside her and asked jackie, “Hey handsome, you’re jackie, right? Can
I add you on WeChat?”
jackie felt awkward as he replied, “Sorry, I’m not into these sorts of things!”
“Oh please, you’re only with that wealthydy for money, right?
“Just tell me, how much does she give you per month? I’ll double it!” She then continued, “But I’m still a
virgin and I’ve never given ‘that’ a thought… So, we’ll take it slow, alright?”
jackie was agitated from that remark. He, a proud guardian of Daxia, an honorable Supreme Warrior,
was actually being…
He decided to ignore Sharonpletely as he then spoke to Neil, “Neil, do you think we can believe a
word you say?”
“He’s framing me. What right do you both have to use me of hiring these people?” Neil puffed out his
chest and spoke confidently.
“p!”
However, jackie immediately gave Neil a hard p as he said, “Who gave you permission to lie?”
“You-you dare hit me?” Neil was beyond furious as his face warmed instantly.
There were second and first-ss aristocratic families present, along with many wealthy merchants.
Moreover, even the Drake family’s young master was here. Yet, jackie still dared to hit him. With so many
people watching, how would he be able to show his face anywhere else in the future? Although he was
previously pped thrice, there had not been many powerful people present then.
“p!”
jackie gave him a back-handed p again as he said, “It’s not the first time anyway. Since you’re this
forgetful, naturally, I should educate you well!”
His personal bodyguard waspletely shocked as he wondered who was jackie exactly? How could a
veteran act so rashly? How could he actually be bold enough to hit Neil? Their Young Master Neil
happened to be a young master to a second-ss aristocratic family!
“No way! jackie’s actually this bold?” Even Timothy was shocked as he wondered if he was mistaking the
scene at hand.
Robert, the Roy family’s master, was also stunned as he thought about just how bold this brat had to be.
“That’s awesome, you finally unleashed your fury! I actually thought youcked masculinity when you
didn’t do anything earlier. I didn’t expect my Prince Charming to be so masculine. I-I worship you deeply.
Oh, I absolutely adore you now!” Standing at the side, Sharon waspletely charmed. She sped
both hands together while cing them on her chest, her eyes filledpletely with stars.
“This idiot… Is he not afraid of angering the Hugo family?” Michael was gobsmacked as this scene was
something he had not expected.
His personal bodyguard could no longer hold himself back. He immediately clenched his fist before
lunging forward to unleash a powerful martial arts move at jackie.
Chapter 169 However, jackie moved his body slightly to the side, easily avoiding the assault before
giving him a swift kick that instantly connected with the man’s chest.
The man coughed out blood as his body shot up several meters from the ground before smacking back
down against the ground. He felt a sharp pain radiate from every inch of his body, it was as if every bone
in his body was about to break.
“Really, it really wasn’t me!” How could Neil even dare admit it was himself. If he did, would that not
mean he was admitting to being a vile and petty person?
If word got out about him hiring some thugs to snatch the item away after losing the auction, it would put
the Hugo family’s reputation into the dirt without a doubt.
“So, youck the courage to admit something you’re bold enough to do? What kind of man are you?”
jackie gave another back-handed p across the man’s face.
This time, jackie put more force into it, so it did not take long for the man’s face to swell up.
“You, if you dare hit me again, I’ll let my father know and he’ll never let you go…”
“p!”
“I-I’m the Hugo family’s young master…”
“p!”
Every time Neil tried to argue, jackie would p him across the face, sounding louder and sharper than
normal.
“Yes, it was me!” Neil was at the brink of tears and if he persisted under these circumstances, he would
be pped to death by jackie.
However, he immediately added, “But I only hired them to beat you up. That was because when we met
previously, we had some conflicts and I held onto that grudge ever since. I only wanted to teach you a
lesson and had absolutely no intention to snatch that luminous pearl from you!”
“I can barely believe half the things you say!” jackie stared coldly at his swollen face, waved his hand,
and said, “Beat it. Best you show up less often in front of me in the future. Since you’re clueless on how
you should act as a human and love lying, I’ll give you a good lesson on how to act like a human!”
“You…” Neil still wanted to impulsively leave behind some threats since it was an ingrained habit.
However, after being red at by jackie, it terrified him so much that he turned around and bolted away.
After the bodyguard noticed the current situation, he mbered up from the ground immediately and ran
away with Neil.
“That idiot. How dare he hit Neil?’ Michael frowned as he was also a young master to a second-ss
aristocratic family. However, the brat was so bold that he had actually hit Neil in public without being
afraid of the Hugo family’s retaliation.
However, he soon thought about something else. Could it be because of how powerful the woman’s
status was? Without a doubt, jackie had to be standing under the shadow of the woman’s protection to
do what he did earlier.
“This time, you’re not being quite as low profile. A mix of major and minor powers from Eastfield have
witnessed what you’ve done!” Lana said to jackie in a soft tone while looking at him.
“Sigh, if I don’t demonstrate some ferocity, I’m worried they might annoy me like flies!”
“Besides, didn’t you provide me with some form of cover earlier? Your performance earlier terrified them!”
jackie lowered his voice as he said that. It sounded very soft so most people would find it very difficult to
hear him.
“Let’s go! Lana led jackie back to her sports car.
“Hey handsome, you can also leave me your number. I know you’re called jackie, am I right? I overheard
it earlier. Hey, don’t leave. I’ll find you and don’t you worry, I can double the price. If you think I’m fat, I
can lose weight too!”
“I was also a beauty back then!” Sharon’s voice could be heard from behind them. Although she was fat,
her voice was still quite sweet.
After the car left, Sharon lowered her head depressingly and looked at the excess fat on her belly. She
said, “I really was a beauty back then. However, I-I just can’t control my mouth!”
Swiftly at noon that day, news of Neil being pped and the mysterious woman spending 500 million to
buy the luminous pearl spread all across town.
Chapter 170 “Good lord! That’s too outrageous!”
When Ivan returned home that night, he excitedly said, “Grandpa, father, I heard very shocking news this
noon!”
“What news?” Old Master Taylor, who rarely ventured outside his home, asked curiously.
“I heard a veteran pped Young Master Neil a few times repeatedly until his face was swollen. It’s far
too insane!”
“Bloody hell, they’re not sure who that veteran was though? Man, the huge amount of guts he has! The
Hugo family happens to be a second-ss aristocratic family so wouldn’t he be disrespecting the Hugo
family for pping Neil’s face?”
While Ivan poured himself a ss of red wine, he spoke in a very ecstatic tone, “It’s my first time hearing
of such a masculine man. He’s truly my idol!”
“A mere veteran was bold enough to p Neil’s face and disrespect the Hugo family?” Theodore was a
little unconvinced. He said, “Is your information reliable?”
“Should be, I heard it from a construction merchant. He said that man was extremely powerful since he’d
almost made Neil cry just from being pped.”
After Ivan took a huge gulp of red wine from his ss, he put it down and spoke emotionally, “The most
important thing is that there was a luminous pearl auctioned off today. The pearl was no regr pearl
and was as big as a ping-pong ball. Based on what the specialists have found out, not only can it aid
one’s sleep just by cing it next to their bed, but it can even slow down a person’s metabolism to the
point of essentially extending one’s lifespan a little!”
“Something that mythical exists in this world?” After Old Master Taylor heard that, he felt quite excited
since a treasure like that would be most tempting to elderly people like him.
He was about to turn 70 and his body was getting weaker by the day. If he actually had a treasure that
could extend his lifespan, he might actually live a year or two longer.
“Sigh, if we only learnt about this sooner. If we knew, we could go to the auction to bid for it. Then we
could have ced it next to your grandpa’s pillow. Wouldn’t that be nice!” Theodore looked at Ivan as he
lamented.
Ivan immediately cracked a bitter smile and said, “Father, it’s not only us who wanted a treasure like this.
The other wealthy merchants, first and second-ss aristocratic families, and heck, even the Drake
family wanted it too! Man, the people from the auction house didn’t even bother to inform third-ss
aristocratic families like ours. They only privately contacted the first and second-ss aristocratic
families, including the Drake family!”
“It’s uncertain how some wealthy merchants got wind of the auction since they showed up too. However,
they were only there to spectate because they can’tpete against those families!” Ivan continued.
“Really? Since the Drake family went and had their eyes on a treasure like that, it should have most likely
fallen into their hands, right?” Theodore said after pondering for a moment.
Chapter 171 “Nope!” Ivan shook his head and said, “After a round of fierce bidding, the luminous pearl
landed in the hands of a mysterious woman. She didn’t seem old, but she bidded for it with 500 million
dors and won.”
“500 million dors?” Old Master Taylor inhaled sharply after hearing that. This was an impossible price;
even if the Taylor family knew about the bidding beforehand, they would have just attended it for fun.
They were incapable of gathering that much cash for a luminous pearl.
But of course, the Taylor family did have the money. They just needed to keep their assets for
development. Therefore, their capital was not as huge as some second or third-ss aristocratic
families.
“The woman who paid 500 million dors, is she the wife of some first-ss aristocratic family head?”
Theodore was shocked.
“Probably not, she was wearing a face mask and shades, and she seemed very mysterious. Word
around town is she has an amazing body and is probably in her twenties. No one knows if she’s got a
billionaire sugar daddy or how she looks. She’s rich and powerful!”
“I heard that just as she left the auction, she was circled by Neil Hugo’s men. They were probably trying
to steal the luminous pearl but guess what? There were about 50 or 60 men at the scene, including a few
ck belt holders, but they were all defeated by the woman. This woman is no joke!”
After saying so, Ivan continued, “I heard the man who pped Neil was apanying the woman. I
suspect that he’s her bodyguard but some said that it was her sugar baby since he was quite good-
looking! Anyway, I don’t know everything about the situation since the millionaire who was talking to me
was unclear about some things.”
“This shows that the woman definitely has aplicated background!”
Old Master Taylor nodded and said, “I don’t care whether that guy is the woman’s sugar baby or her
bodyguard. Given that he had the courage to p Neil Hugo, it shows that he does not fear the Hugo
family at all!”
“But aren’t the only people who don’t fear the Hugo family include the Four Major Families and the Roy
family? This woman is not from those families. Could it be that she came from another town?”
Theodore was confused. If it was someone from those families, everyone would’ve recognized her even
with the face mask and shades.
“Probably not. Let’s not forget that these powers are prominent and well-known!” Old Master Taylor
forced a smile and added, “What about the powers underground? They’re not weak at all. Just look at
the Dragon God n who lost 200 men to an attack a few days ago. These powers are scarier since we
don’t know how much money they have! On top of that, veterans have beening home recently, and
there are some generals or warlords among them. They’re rich as well!”
“That makes sense… Anyway, since he dared to hit Neil Hugo, this shows that he has aplicated
background as well!”
Ivan nodded and said, “I heard that the woman has an amazing body, but no one knows how she looks.
Meanwhile, the man seems threatening enough if he hit Neil to the brink of tears.”
“I’m curious, who is the hero who killed 200 men from the Dragon God n? The Dragon God n is no
good news, so everyone’s hailing the killer as a hero now!”
Old Master Taylor forced a smile and said, “This time, after the attack on Neil, who knows how the Hugo
family will feel. The Hugo family is strict on discipline and extremely careful about things. They’ve been
worried that Neil would get into trouble and that was why they did not allow him tomand any
bodyguards. s, there’s still an issue.”
“Dad, our men checked it out the next day. They said that there was a sandal’s print in the unfinished
building. Judging from that, the mysterious hero must have been wearing sandals at the time!” Ivan was
deep in thought for a while before saying, “F*ck, being able to kill so many men of the Dragon God n
while wearing sandals? My idol, this is definitely my idol!”
Chapter 172 “Stop talking about idols!” Theodore red at his own son and said, “For those first and
second-ss aristocratic families, of course they would know someone this strong, right? Take Dan
Jameson from the rk family. I heard that he could defeat a few hundred men alone!”
“Dad, Dan is definitely no match for my idol! Think about it, my idol is very mysterious and righteous. He
had the courage to fight the evil forces! Secondly, he was fighting in sandals and managed toe out
of it safely. As for Dan, I heard that he suffered severe injuries back then. Therefore, I believe that the
man who dared fight the Dragon God n is definitely a lot more powerful than Dan!” The more Ivan
thought about it, the more he idolized the mystery man. He wished that he could meet his idol.
“Sigh, unfortunately for us, although we have quite a few bodyguards ourselves, they’re not great. None
of them are strong enough.”
“Nowadays to get a better bodyguard, it would cost a few hundred thousand dors. In fact, some of
them will demand for over a million dors for their monthly sries. If we were to hire a few of them, it
would cost a lot!”
Theodore sighed and said, “What we need to do now is to get the South City property project. When we
get it, we’ll have more money to hire some professionals!”
Old Master Taylor looked at Ivan and said, “You have to talk about this with Selena, okay? I know there
were misunderstandings between you two back then, but I hope that for the sake of the Taylor family,
both of you will be able to let bygones be bygones!”
“Don’t worry grandpa, I’m okay. I’m just worried that Selena might still be mad about it!”
Ivan continued with a smile, “When we be a second-ss aristocratic family, we must get a few
professionals. If we could hire the man who killed the 200 men of the Dragon God n overnight, that
would be great!”
…
Soon after leaving the auction, Lana passed jackie the box with the luminous pearl inside. Seeing that it
was gettingte, jackie got on his electric scooter to fetch Selena from work.
…
At the same time, Timothy was sitting with Old Master Drake and the others at the dinner table.
“Where’s the luminous pearl? Did you win the bid?” Old Master Drake looked over at Timothy and asked.
The family had stayed home for the day so they did not hear about what happened in the afternoon.
“You’ve probably gotten it, haven’t you? I heard that the starting bid wasn’t high, so I estimated that you
could bid for it with a maximum of a hundred million dors!”
“Getting such a huge luminous pearl with a hundred million dors, on top of helping improve sleep and
extending one’s life; a hundred million dors would be worth it!” Tanya said happily.
“If only it was that easy!” Timothy forced a smile and said, “It was bidded by a mysterious woman. But I’m
curious about one thing. jackie was there as well with her. Who is that woman? She was strong so who
knows if jackie was really her sugar baby or her bodyguard!”
The more Timothy thought about it, the more he frowned. “If jackie really was her bodyguard, that isn’t
that betraying us, the Drake family? He’s the Drake family’s bodyguard. Is he doing this part-time behind
our backs? How could someone be this unprofessional?”
Chapter 173 “Brother, what are you saying? What mysterious woman? What professional bodyguard?
And why was jackie there?” After hearing her brother mumbling to himself, Tanya was confused.
“Oh, so this happened. When I arrived today, I realized…”
Timothy looked at the crowd and started speaking about this afternoon’s events.
“ jackie actually hit Master Hugo? That woman used 500 million dors to bid for the luminous pearl? My
God, I should’ve followed you there this afternoon. I shouldn’t have slept in. I missed such a great show!”
Tanya was worked up over it. The more she thought about it, the more she regretted not following her
brother to the auction today.
“ jackie is a sugar baby? It’s funny people actually think so. jackie has enough money. Moreover, we pay
him 20 million dors a month, which is more than enough for him. Does he really need to be a sugar
baby?”
James Drakeughed and said, “Since this woman was wearing a face mask and shades, I think she
definitely has aplicated background. As for jackie, it’s impossible that he was her bodyguard. They
were probably together as friends. It’s already a downgrade for jackie to be a bodyguard for us, so it’d be
impossible for him to find a part-time job!”
“Dad, aren’t you putting him on too high of a pedestal? Is he really that strong?” Timothy had always
thought that his father thought too highly of jackie.
“You’re too young. Remember what I said, you can’t offend this man. Of course you can’t let him feel that
we’re trying to get on his good side as well or allow him to feel annoyed of us! But when we get the
chance, we should help him and make him feel that owing a favor to us is the best idea! I believe he has
connections with the God of War!” James said with augh.
As he spoke, he came to a realization and eximed, “My God, the woman with the face mask and
shades today, how old did she look?”
Timothy thought about it and replied, “Even with the face mask and shades, although I couldn’t see her
clearly with a cap but we how she physically looked like overall, I would say that she’s just over 20.”
“Is she really just over 20?” James asked excitedly.
“She’s definitely under 30. If I’m not wrong, she’s about 27 or 28!”
Timothy added, “What’s going on? Dad, do you have a guess who she is?”
“27 or 28?” James’ pupils dted. He said, “It’s probably not the God of War, is it? It could be that she’s a
Goddess of War. I heard that she doesn’t like getting bothered recently. She rejected all the rich
businessmen and families who wanted to have a meal with her! If she really wanted to go out, it’s logical
that she would wear a face mask and shades!”
“My dear, now that you’ve said it, I think it’s possible. After all, for a woman to be able to whip out 500
million dors and defeat nearly 60 men easily, more so with a few ck belt holders amongst them—
could she really be the Goddess of War?”
Timothy inhaled sharply and was stunned. “It’s not really possible that rich women from other cities came
to the auction. After all, news about it only came out yesterday so people from other cities would
probably not have been able to hear about it so soon. Seeing how strong and young that woman was,
she’s probably the Goddess of War!”
“That’s right. Since jackie was with her, this further proves that their rtionship is unusual!”
Chapter 174 The more James thought about it, the more excited he was. He felt that the woman was
probably the strongest and scariest in Eastfield at the moment—Lana Zechs.
Since jackie went to the auction with her, that showed that the duo were rather close with each other. If
that really was the case, he would be right about it all.
“I’ve never met Lana Zechs so I wouldn’t dare to confirm that. Dad, this is just my guess!” Timothy said
while forcing a smile.
“I’ll look it up now and show you photos of the Gods of War! There are tons of photos of the Nine Great
Gods of War!”
James did not bother with his meal anymore. He pulled out his phone and began searching them up.
After some time, he found a full body shot of Lana and passed it to Timothy. “Look at this photo. These
Gods of War have no casual photos and are always dressed in army uniform. Just take a look, this body,
could it be her?”
Timothy examined the photo and said, “This body, this height, this body size, does look just like her!”
After hearing that, Old Master Drake and James looked at each other beforeughing. It seemed like
they were right.
However, Timothy frowned soon after that and said, “But the woman earlier today was wearing a dress,
and she seemed feminine and sexy. The woman in this photo seems cold, and her gaze is terrifying. She
does not look human at all!”
“Since she’s left the army, wearing a feminine dress would definitely make her seem different to
everyone! But if her height and body check out, on top of what had happened today, I’m sure that she’s
Lana Zechs, the Goddess of War!” James smiled and said, “Who would’ve known that a Goddess of War
was so into a luminous pearl that she would attend an auction to bid for it!”
Old Master Drake was deep in thought before asking, “Wait, during the auction, did you offend her?”
Timothy was stunned after hearing that, his expression darkening.
“Timothy, did you really offend a Goddess of War?” James was terrified. He said to Timothy, “How many
times have I warned you? You have to be on jackie’s good side and not offend him. Since jackie was
next to this woman, you shouldn’t have offended her as well, right? I don’t care whether you knew who
she was before this!”
Timothy said with a dark expression, “I don’t know whether it counts as offending her but when she was
in a bidding war with me, she raised her bid till the end. As I did not expect her to be this powerful in
Eastfield at that age, I yelled for her to take off her face mask to reveal her face! I said it because I was
just curious about who she was!”
After hearing that, James pointed at Timothy angrily and said, “Isn’t this offending her? This is obviously
offending her!”
After saying that, James stopped and panted before continuing, “Why would a Goddess of War wear a
face mask and shades? She doesn’t want to be recognized, so that’s why she was dressed like that. She
recently returned to Eastfield and there are way too many people looking for benefits from being
associated with her. She must be annoyed by it so that’s why she did what she did!”
“And what did you do? You went ahead and asked her to take off her mask. Tell me, if you were her,
would you be pissed?”
James became angrier the more he thought about it. He wished he could p his son a few times.
Despite reminding him about it multiple times, a problem still urred.
“Dad, it’s not that serious, is it? The Goddess of War might not be someone that petty. Moreover, she
was wearing a face mask and shades. She must have known that I wasn’t really trying to offend her, he
was just curious. I must not be the only person in the room who was curious about her at that moment,
so she shouldn’t be too worked up about it!”
Seeing that Timothy lowered his head from being scolded, Tanya felt a little sorry for him.
Chapter 175 Timothy thought of something and said, “Yes, yes, at the time, Michael Wilson and the Roy
family, were all asking about who she was. Apart from that, we did not really argue. At least, I did not!”
James let out a sigh of relief upon hearing that. “If that’s the case, that’s a little better. Remember, jackie
and that woman, including anyone who’s with jackie, cannot be offended. Otherwise, if he’s pissed, the
Drake family might have to leave Eastfield’s circle for real.”
“Okay, I got it!” Timothy was relieved. He was thankful for himself that he did not stir trouble with them
today. Otherwise, he might have ended up like Neil Hugo.
…
At this very moment, Master Hugo had already known about what happened that day. Master Hugo,
together with some important members of the family, convened at the house. As for Neil, he was
standing with his head low and face swollen in front of Master Hugo.
“You idiot, aren’t you a brave one? I’ve told you time after time that you should not be causing trouble but
you ignored me! On top of that, you also hired men to snatch the luminous pearl, didn’t you? You’re
embarrassing, you’ve embarrassed our family!” Master Hugo was so angry that his fists were clenched
and his eyes were red.
“Dad, this was my fault! But that fellow jackie went overboard as well. He hit me in front of everyone, isn’t
that signaling that he’s hitting the Hugo family in the face? We can’t let this slide, you have to do
something!” Neil looked up and said angrily, “The men I hired were going to teach jackie a lesson since
he was looking down on me while riding an electric scooter thest time. I just wanted to teach him a
lesson about it, I didn’t mean to snatch the luminous pearl!”
“I don’t care if you meant it, what’s the use of exining this to me now? Your men charged toward them
just as they left the auction, and the men were aiming for the woman. Other people would think that
you’re trying to snatch the luminous pearl because you lost the bid! With a petty man like you, who else
would want to work with us in the future?”
Master Hugo was pissed. “The only thing that I’m hearing is that you brought men over in an attempt to
snatch the luminous pearl but ended up getting beaten up instead.”
“I…” Neil was left speechless. Truth be told, he did n to just snatch the luminous pearl from them as
well, even though the idea hade from his bodyguard.
“Master, no matter what, this is how it is now!”
“Who knows who that woman is, but as for jackie, he’s just a veteran. Since he dared to hit Young
Master, what does this say? This says that the woman must be of a certain status as well, so that must
have been why he wasn’t afraid of offending us!”
An old man thought about it further and asked Master Hugo, “What should we do now?”
“Bring the men, we’ll find jackie now!” Master Hugo thought it through and replied.
“Okay, let’s go. Damn it, he was disregarding the Hugo family and shaming us. Let’s go teach him a
lesson!”
Neil was excited. After all, his father did love him. His father was finally doing something for him.
Chapter 176 “Pa!” Just as Neil spoke, he was pped hard by the master of the Hugo family, Roy Hugo.
…
jackie rode his electric scooter with Selena in tow. They returned home early.
“Since I have a day off tomorrow, let’s register Kylie to a kindergarten!” Selena got off the scooter and
said to jackie.
“Okay, I’ll take a day off as well!” jackie replied with a smile.
“Really? You’ve only been working for two days. With that high sry of yours, did you apply for leave in
advance? If you don’t, what if the Drake family gets angry about it?”
Selena heard what he said and frowned as she continued. “On top of that, your daily sry is pretty high
as well so it must be costly to take a day off.”
jackie paused for a while and replied, “That’s probably not the case. I’ve told them that I’ll only go over
when I’m free. If they’re going to take a day’s sry off my wages for resting, I’ll just quit the job!”
Selena was left speechless. She red at jackie and said, “With that kind of sry, how could you quit
just like that? I don’t want to hear others saying that my husband is a useless man I’m taking care of!”
“I was joking. However, looking for a kindergarten for Kylie is a big issue. Since you have a day off
tomorrow, of course I muste with you!” jackieughed, walked over, and hugged Selena by her slim
waist. “After we register her at the kindergarten in the morning, we’ll bring Kylie to the yground. Kylie’s
already so grown but she has yet to go out with us both!”
After hearing that, Selena nodded shyly. She was blushing.
“Selena, you’re so cute when you’re shy!” jackie hugged the beauty in his arms tighter.
“Mom, they’re home!” At this very moment, Xena came out of the house and saw jackie with Selena. She
yelled in the direction of the house momentster.
Selena was terrified. She broke out of jackie’s embrace and her face was so red that blood could drip off
her face.
Fiona, Andrew, and Ben came out of the house soon after that.
Fiona, who was ahead of everyone else, had a dark expression on her face. She said angrily, “ jackie,
what’s wrong with you? You keep stirring trouble everyday!”
“Mom, what happened? jackie was working today, what did he do?” Selena was left speechless for a
moment as she impatiently replied to her mother.
“Working?” Fiona was stunned for a while before sneering, “You should ask him then, was he working
today? This fellow is a bastard. If you had the means, I, Fiona Lewis, wouldn’t even bat an eye if you had
a few wives, just as long as Selena was okay with it. However, you don’t have the means and you still
went out to see another woman on top of stirring trouble? Are you even a human being? How could we
still ept you into the family?”
Chapter 177 “I…was seeing another woman?” jackie was stunned. He forced a smile and said, “Mom,
there might be a misunderstanding here. I’ve only been back for a few days, how could I find time to see
other women? Moreover, Selena’s great to me so how is it possible for me to see anyone else?”
“Misunderstanding? How could it be a misunderstanding? I’ve got the photos!”
Xena crossed her arms in front of her chest, her gaze at jackie was filled with disgust. “If you were a
billionaire, it would make you seem capable when you see other women. However, you’re so broke and
yet you still did this? How could you face Sister after this?”
“Photos? What photos?” Selena scrunched her brows together and asked.
“Mom, show it to Sister. Otherwise, she might still be kept in the dark about it. She would not know what
kind of disgusting things jackie has done behind her back!”
As Ben red angrily at jackie, he continued, “ jackie, you’re such an *sshole. Our family suffered for five
years because of you. Because of you, my sister was kicked out of the Taylor Family. As the Taylor
Family’s young mistress, my sister had to scavenge with Kylie in tow. Don’t you know how hard life has
been for her?”
Ben began clenching his fists. He walked over to jackie while gritting his teeth and said, “Now that you’re
back and have a new, well-paying job, you think it’s okay to see other women now? How are you this
shameless as a man?”
After saying that, Ben threw his fist at jackie’s face. This time, jackie stood where he was and did not
even flinch. He was punched right in the face.
“You, are you okay? Why didn’t you avoid it?” Selena was shocked. She rushed over and pushed Ben
away. “Ben, are you crazy? He’s your brother-inw, how could you hit him?”
Momentster, she turned around and looked at jackie in confusion. “You’re so strong, why didn’t you
avoid it?”
Ben was dumbfounded as well. He did not expect jackie to stand where he was to get punched.
“I’m remorseful. It was my fault for the past five years. I can’t imagine the pain you’ve been through and
beingughed at because of me. Selena, I’m sorry for the past five years. I’ll take care of you and Kylie
from now on. I’ll never let you both suffer again.”
jackie was looking at Selena with a loving gaze.
“Fine, fine, I believe you!” Selena felt warmth in her heart. Although she did suffer for the past five years,
now that jackie was back and her child had a father again, she believed that their lives would improve as
long as they both worked hard.
After all, they both had decent jobs now.
“Sister, don’t listen to him, he’s a liar!” Ben was so angry that his eyes were red.
Fiona walked over and pulled Selena toward her before pulling out her phone to show something to
Selena. “My dear, don’t listen to this guy’s sweet words. Look, this morning he wasn’t working at the
Drake family’s ce. He went to the auction with this woman!”
jackie frowned upon hearing that. He said to Fiona, “What woman? Show me!”
Fiona backed up and sneered, “feeling guilty? Feeling scared? Young Master Wilson sent me this photo
this afternoon. He told me that there must be something going on between you and this woman. On top
of that, this woman is extremely rich. Her watch is worth millions. The woman also spent 500 million
dors today to bid for a luminous pearl.”
At this moment, Fiona paused before continuing, “I think you must be this woman’s sugar baby, right?
How much is this woman giving you per month?”
Chapter 178 After hearing what Fiona had to say, jackie came to a realization. It was bastard Michael
Wilson; he left the auction, came to see Fiona, and made things up about jackie. Selena took a good
look at the photo with a frown. She seemed a little displeased. After all, although she had never worn any
watch that was too expensive, she still recognized a few prominent brands. The woman’s watch was
worth over a million dors; on top of that, her earrings seemed expensive as well.
“Were you really not working at the Drake family’s house today?” Selena was staring right at jackie. She
was in disbelief; if jackie did lie to her, she would lose everything.
After that fateful night back then, she decided to keep the baby through gritted teeth as she did not want
to give it up. As for jackie, she had not been close to him; she did not know much about this man at all.
She did regret what happened on her wedding night. She did contemte aborting her baby. However,
she could not bring herself to do so to her own child.
She did not want others to make fun of Kylie as the bastard child; she had been looking forward to jackie
coming home alive. As long as he turned out to be a good husband and father, she would be fine with it.
jackie eventually made it back alive. Judging from their interactions in the past few days, she realized
that this man was pretty responsible and seemed handsome too. He was good to her and her daughter.
That was why she was satisfied with jackie. She wanted to just live the rest of her days peacefully; their
rtionship could be built over time.
However, if jackie really did lie to her, his dishonesty would be a hit on her head; that would mean that
her sacrifice for the past few years meant nothing. If jackie really was seeing a rich woman behind her
back, even if it was for money or for the family, she would not be able to take it.
Men like thiscked strength in their character; they were too useless. Selena Taylor’s man should not be
someone like this; even if he was a construction worker, he should never be a sugar baby.
“Work?” Just as jackie was about to exin himself, Xena unexpectedly sneered again, “I think he’s
probably gotten into trouble again and ended up getting kicked out by the Drake family. He’s probably
lying to us as well, he might not even be a bodyguard for the Drake family, he might actually be a sugar
baby secretly. He’s just lying to earn money!”
“ jackie, tell me the truth, otherwise, you won’t be allowed into this house tonight.” Fiona had her hands
crossed in front of her chest; she had a proud expression on her face.
“Selena, it doesn’t matter whether they believe me!” jackie exhaled deeply and continued, “Don’t you
know what kind of person Michael Wilson is? Based on the fact that he came over to see your mom, do
you really think that his words can be trusted?”
Selena was stunned. She thought about thest encounter she had with Michael at the restaurant. It was
when Michael first exposed how horrible of a person he was; he did use dirty tricks to threaten her to go
on a date with him past midnight.
It was true; a man like this should not be trusted.
“So, you should give me and my mother an exnation! Who is that woman in the photo?” Selena was
believing jackie for the most part, but she continued asking questions.
“That’s right, you have to give us an exnation. Why is this woman so rich, and why did she wear a
face mask and shades when no one else did?”
Chapter 179 Fiona said angrily, “Young Master Wilson mentioned that this woman is probably dating a
mega-billionaire but was afraid of being recognized by her own man. She might be afraid of people
finding out she has a sugar baby, so she wore the mask and covered herself like that.”
“Yes yes yes, if she wasn’t feeling guilty, why would she wear a mask? It’s obvious that you’re both hiding
something!” Xena added.
“Who is she?” Selena stared right at jackie. After all, the woman was rich and sexy; Selena was a little
worried about that.
“A friend of mine!” jackie smiled and said, “She wanted to go to the auction, and she asked me to
apany her, so I did.”
“A friend, what friend?” Fiona asked, “Since when do you have such a rich friend? If you have so many
rich friends, you wouldn’t have be a live-in son-inw for the Taylor family five years ago just to get
a million dors for your mother’s medical bill! Why didn’t you ask for the money from her back then?”
jackieughed upon hearing that. “She was poor back then too, she was just a kid!”
“do you think we’ll believe you? If she was so poor five years ago that she couldn’t even whip out a
million dors, how could she spend five hundred million dors on a luminous pearl five yearster?”
Ben walked over and sneered.
Even Andrew, who was usually quiet, red at jackie angrily. “ jackie, I’m telling you, if you’re cheating
on my daughter with some rich woman, I will despise you. You’ll have to divorce my daughter!”
“What friend is this, earning so much within five years? What does she do?” Selena asked jackie while
looking at him. The woman was still poor five years ago, but she managed to easily pull out five hundred
million dors for a luminous pearl five yearster. This was too hard to believe. What kind of business
was she in to be able to earn so much in five years?
More importantly, jackie had been in the army for the past five years; where did he find time to keep in
contact with this rich woman? How was he able to get in touch with her right away after leaving the
army? Although Selena did not want to overthink it, it was jackie in the photo, and the photo was indeed
taken at the auction. This was an indisputable fact.
“Fine, since you want to know it so badly, I’ll tell you!” jackie looked at Selena with a serious face and
said, “This friend of mine is Lana Zechs, Eastfield’s Goddess of War who had just returned from the
army!”
“Goddess of War!” Fiona, Andrew, and the rest had their eyes wide open upon hearing the name. They
were shocked.
“No way, you know the Goddess of War? You’re friends with the Goddess of War?” Xena was shocked,
and her mouth was opened so wide that her chin could have touched the ground.
“Really? Isn’t that impossible? How did you get to meet someone like that?” Andrew snapped out of it
and shook his head. It was too hard to believe.
“I think it’s impossible too, this brat must be lying!” Xena said quickly, “You know the Goddess of War,
and you’re friends with her? If that was the case, why didn’t you say so earlier? This is something to be
proud of! Moreover, who is he to know someone of that level? The Gods of War are the guardians of
Daxia, they’re incredibly powerful. There are only nine of them!”
Chapter 180 “you’re getting better and better at lying. You actually made it sound so real that I nearly
believed you!” Fiona quickly sneered again.
“ jackie, you’re too disappointing!” Andrew shook his head defeatedly and gave jackie a disappointing
look. “I realized that ever since you came back from the army, you like exaggerating things. You’re acting
as if you’re somebody after being a soldier for a mere few years, and easily agreed to whip out thirty
million dors at the old master’s seventieth birthday celebration. You’ve also been fighting with
everyone, now that you finally have a job, it turns out to be fake. You didn’t go to work at all, you went to
be a rich woman’s sugar baby!”
Andrew paused at this moment before continuing, “I just didn’t expect you to im that the Goddess of
War is your friend just to cover your tracks. why don’t you say that all nine of them are your friends?”
jackie felt awkward. Thankfully, he did not mention that all nine of the Gods of War were his students;
otherwise, they would be in bigger disbelief.
“Selena, do you believe me?” jackie finally looked at Selena and said with a serious face, “I don’t care if
they believe me, as long as you do!”
However, Selena beganughing at this moment; she seemed a little disappointed as well. “Believe you?
How do you think I could still believe you? If you said she’s your friend, I can buy that, but you’re now
saying that she’s a Goddess of War. Have you been watching too much TV? Are people like Gods of War
that approachable?”
“Yes, yes!” Xena crossed her arms in front of her chest and said, “I heard that even the Masters of the
first or second-rated families who paid visits to the Gods of War were not even let into their houses. You
were just a soldier, but you’re saying that the Goddess of War is your friend? Impossible!”
jackie’s expression darkened; he stomped his foot and reached Xena within the blink of an eye before
smacking her with the back of his hand. Xena was pped before she knew what was going on. She
was stunned.
Soon after that, she held her cheek, and she was so angry that her chest was moving rapidly. “Bastard,
you hit me? What, you’re angry because I exposed you?”
jackie stared at her coldly and said, “You can say that I was just a soldier, but you can’t say that about
anyone else. We killed enemies on the frontline for the country and your peaceful lives, so many people
have died as a result of that, but you were here shaming the warriors who fought for Daxia’s stability.”
“I…” Xena did not expect that her words could get jackie this worked up. Moreover, jackie’s gaze was too
terrifying.
She had never seen such a terrifying gaze; she was so scared that she backed up unconsciously before
replying, “I don’t care, you betrayed Ben’s sister, so you betrayed my sister, I’m defending her!”
“Enough!” Selena yelled with a cold expression before saying to Xena, “Xena, you’ve yet to marry into
our family, you’re still an outsider, you have no business talking about us!”
“Selena, why are you still defending this bastard jackie?” Fiona was pissed. She ran over through gritted
teeth, pulled Selena aside, and said, “Xena has already been dating your brother for two to three years,
she’s not an outsider, she’s already our daughter-inw in my heart. Of course, she has the right to
speak about this!”
Selena opened her mouth but held herself back. She said, “Mom, I just don’t like Xena, you just don’t
know some things!”
“Bullsh*t, do you think I don’t know what kind of girl Xena is? It’s not my first time meeting her!” Fiona
continued, “But you, jackie has been lying to you time after time, but you’re still defending him. Do you
know how worried we are for you? This brat will harm you one day! You should divorce him as soon as
possible!”
“Son of a b*tch, how dare you hit my girlfriend, are you looking for death? I’ll fight you today!” Ben
clenched his fists and charged toward jackie. His fist was aiming for jackie.
This time, jackie acted quickly and grabbed him by the arm before pulling it hard. Ben fell onto the
ground with his face down.
“I don’t care if she’s your girlfriend. If she shames us warriors, especially those who have lost their lives,
she deserves to be hit!”
Chapter 181 jackie looked at Ben and said coldly, “It was a matter of principles.”
“How dare you jackie White, you surely are a bold one. How dare you beat up my son, I’ll kill you!”
Fueled with anger, Fiona rushed forward.
After all, she was his mother-inw. jackie dared not fight back. He could only dodge.
“What, what’s the matter? Fiona, what’s wrong?” At that moment, Joan, who was out to buy groceries
with her maids, Kylie and Jenny, came back. Seeing Fiona chasing after jackie, she immediately stepped
forward to advise them.
Fiona did not manage to hit him but was worn out instead. She panted hard as she held onto her waist.
Then, she said, “me your dear son. He hit my son!”
“Mum, be careful with what you say! Ben was the one who started it. jackie didn’t even hit him; he just
pulled him slightly because he lost his bnce.” Selena argued back. Then, she spoke to jackie again, ”
jackie, I’ll ask you onest time. You have to tell me the truth. Is that woman really Lana, the Goddess of
War? Is she really your friend?”
“She really is Lana, the Goddess of War!” jackie smiled bitterly. He felt a bit helpless. He was telling the
truth but nobody believed him.
“you’re still trying to lie? You still want to lie to me? From now onward, I won’t believe in anything you
say!” Selena was in the depth of despair. She said to jackie, “You should leave now. I don’t want to see
you. I want to be alone!”
“Selena, what’s going on? What’s with all this Goddess of War?” Joan was confused. She did not
understand what was going on.
“Mum, I’ll exin to youter!” jackie looked at Joan. Then, he looked at Selena with a solemn gaze, “I’m
telling you the truth. She is the Goddess of War! I can’t do anything if you choose not to believe me, but
I’m sure you will believe me one day!”
jackie walked toward Fiona after he was done talking, “Mum, I don’t know if you’re going to ept me,
but what we talked about a few days ago still counts, right? I will be there, and I will prepare the gift for
the old master. I will not go back on my promise with Ivan and I will pay him back his ten million dors,
not even leaving a single penny out. Also, I will make sure to bring you the twenty million betrothal gift.”
“you’re still bragging. Alright, I’ll wait for you, but you have to take your mother out of here today because
you got yourself into trouble!”
Fionaughed and said, “Young Master Wilson said that besides fawning on those rich women, you
pped Young Master Hugo. You hit him with so many people watching, it meant you’re mocking the
Hugo family. The people from the Hugo family will not let you off!”
“That’s right. Get out of here. We will not care whether you’re dead or alive!”
“Don’t get our family into trouble; we cannot afford to offend the Hugo family! Damn it, how dare you hit
me. You’re terrible!” Ben stared at jackie balefully but he dared not move an inch. He knew that he was
no match for jackie.
“Mummy…” Kylie held onto Selena’s hand. She looked at jackie with reluctant eyes. Although she was
only four years old, she was a very sensible girl.
“You hit Neil? You…you got into a fight again?” Selena looked at jackie and shook her head. jackie was
only back for a few days yet he caused so much trouble. She was starting to get tired.
“Leave, I don’t want to see you for now. We’ll talk again when you decide not to lie anymore!”
“If you cannot fulfill what you have said just now on grandpa’s seventieth birthday, I will never believe you
again!” Selena waved her hand, “I will get a divorce by then!”
Chapter 182 Selena did not believe jackie. He had no choice but to only sigh. However, he believed that
Selena would find out sooner orter that he was not lying.
“Hurry up and leave. You’ll get us into trouble if the people from the Hugo familye looking for you!”
Andrew sighed. He felt pity as jackie did not look like someone who would boast. However, his words
were not convincing enough.
“Alright!” jackie heaved another sigh and looked at Andrew again, “Father, your legs should be feeling
better now? Don’t worry, whether they ept me or not, I wille here every morning to treat you.
Your legs should be fully recovered in two to three days!”
Andrew was excited when he heard what jackie said, “Really? I hope it will recover. My legs are really
getting better! I can feel it!”
” jackie, don’t expect us to appreciate you just because you treated father’s leg. You’re also part of the
reason why my father’s leg is hurt. Treating him is your obligation. You should make up for what you did,
is that clear?” Ben said angrily.
“Don’t worry, I’m aware of that!” jackie smiled and looked at Kylie. Then, he said, “Don’t worry, Kylie.
Mummy needs some time to calm down. She’s still angry right now so daddy will move out for the time
being. I’lle back once mummy is no longer angry!”
“Alright, Daddy…” Kylie looked at jackie with her big dewy eyes as she spoke in her tender voice.
“Kylie is such a good girl.” Joan smiled and said, “Selena, don’t act out of impulse. jackie wouldn’t boast,
neither would he lie to you. There must be some misunderstanding between both of you!”
Joan was very worried that Selena would get a divorce with jackie. Although Fiona and the rest are very
mean, Selena was a good woman. She knew that clearly after living with Selena for the past five years.
“He must be able to do what he said. Otherwise, how can we believe him if he’s just bragging?”
Selena looked at Joan. She was still in a fit of pique.
“Yes, Selena, you cannot be soft-hearted this time. You’re one in your twenties and you’re very young.
Moreover, you are very pretty. You can marry a better man even if you get a divorce! If you relent this
time, it will be toote to get a divorce when you get older!” Fiona, who was standing aside, spoke. At
that moment, a few luxurious cars came toward their direction and stopped in front of the yard. There
were dozens of them.
“Why are there so many luxurious cars? Did the Hugo family arrive already?” Ben looked at the cars and
immediately, his face darkened, “Shit, jackie is still here and the sky is still bright but the Hugo family has
already arrived. jackie is in deep trouble right now!”
“These people must be very good. Look at those bodyguards, all fierce and vigorous, they are not
ordinary people! I bet all the masters of the Hugo family came! Don’t put us into trouble!” Xena
immediately said.
“Let’s go, Selena, hurry up. Let’s get inside. Whatever happens here has nothing to do with us. Quick.
Whether jackie dies or not is none of our business!” Fiona was terrified. She immediately stepped
forward and pulled Selena away.
Chapter 183 “But…” Seeing Neil walking toward them with all his men, Selena could not help but to
worry for jackie. She was very angry at jackie for going to the auction with another woman and lying to
her, saying that the woman was the Goddess of War. Despite that, the two of them still had feelings for
each other after all the time they spent together. Now that jackie was in danger, she realized she was
very worried about jackie. What if jackie dies? Does that mean Kylie would lose her father?
“Come on, sister. Let’s get into the house!” Ben stepped forward as well. A few of them dragged Selena
into the house. Jenny carried Kylie as she followed them into the house.
“Master Hugo, jackie was the one responsible for what happened this morning. It has nothing to do with
our family!” Fiona immediately shouted at Master Hugo and his men who were in the yard after retreating
into the house. She was afraid the people would beat her up or kill her.
“Mum, jackie’s mother. Is she still outside? Ask her toe in!” Selena was worried sick. The door was
closed and they could only stand behind the window and see what was happening outside.
“You’re too kind. Why ask her toe in when she didn’t want toe in herself? She’s his mother, not
your mother. Let her apany him if she wants to do so. Moreover, what if the Hugo family is not
happy after shees in? What will you do if she puts us in trouble?” Fiona did not agree.
“Son, did you really hit the young master of the Hugo family?” Joan would not leave her son’s side. He
was her only support. How could she leave him alone and hide in the house?
However,ing to the thought that the Hugo family was a second-ss aristocratic family, Joan was
terrified as well. She looked at jackie anxiously and hoped that everything was not real.
jackie nodded his head, “I gave him a few ps. That guy is useless; I’m teaching him a lesson on behalf
of his parents!”
Joan nearly passed out after listening to what he said. Her son surely changed a lot aftering back
from the army. He liked to fight against injustice However, this was a battlefield itself. If he kept offending
powerful forces like them, how would he survive? Something bad would happen sooner orter if this
went on like that.
“Gentlemen, my son, he might be a bit impulsive at times as he just came back from the battlefield. I
hope you don’t me him! Come at me if you want to kill!” Joan was afraid, but when the people from
the Hugo family came near jackie, she as a mother plucked up her courage. She blocked jackie from the
people with her thin body.
“Mum, why are you afraid of them? You don’t have to be afraid; they are no match for me! Don’t worry!”
Looking at his terrified mother, jackie felt touched. He immediately tried tofort his mother.
“What are you waiting for?” Master Hugo face darkened. He red at his son, Neil.
Although Neil was reluctant, he had no choice but to lower his head and step forward. He knelt down in
front of jackie, “ jackie, I was wrong. I was a fool and I made a mistake. Please forgive me!”
jackie was ashamed. He thought that they were here to start a fight. Unexpectedly, he brought his son
over to apologize. He looked at Master Hugo and could not help but to admire that man.
Chapter 184 ”What? Am I seeing things? Young Master Hugo is kneeling down to jackie?” Fiona rubbed
her eyes and wondered if she was hallucinating.
“He brought so many people over but it wasn’t because he wanted to fight jackie? jackie pped his son,
which meant he was mocking the Hugo family! Surprisingly, Master Hugo wanted his son to kneel down
before jackie and apologize to him?” Xena was surprised as well. What was happening? Did the people
from the Hugo family turned crazy?”
“This…” Andrew was confused too.
jackie was slightly stunned after listening to his words. Then, he said to Neil, “Get up. You haven’t
touched my bottom line today. Otherwise, I would’ve killed you!”
Fiona and the rest felt ashamed after seeing him so domineering. Was he really merely an ordinary
veteran? Why wasn’t he afraid of the Hugo family? It was as though he could dere a person’s life and
death. It was as though he was the dictator! Staring at his figure, Selena was in a state of trance. Did
jackie really know the Goddess of War and was he really a friend of the Goddess of War? Otherwise,
how could he be so indifferent facing the people from the Hugo family? He seemed so casual and
rxed.
“Thank you, thank you very much, jackie!” Neil was filled with resentment, but he was forced to keep his
head down. After expressing his gratitude to jackie, he retreated back to his father’s side. He felt defiant
and thought that his father was being too cautious.
His father only wanted to live in peace all his life. There were a lot of times where he stayed quiet
although he was bullied. His father said it was because he did not want to offend others to prevent
ruining the Hugo family. Neil could not talk back as it was for the sake of the Hugo family. At that
moment, he felt that his father was like a turtle hiding in its shell. He lived cautiously all his life. The man
in front of them was merely a veteran. What was there to be afraid of? Moreover, although that guy might
have a wealthy woman as his support, he did not have to go all the way to bring him there and force him
to apologize. He even had to kneel down before jackie. It was so embarrassing.
“You have to apologize. Kneel down and apologize! If a soldier dares to beat you up, it means he was
fearless. There must be a wealthy woman behind his back that we can’t afford to offend! So, you have to
apologize for the Hugo family’s safety! I’ve warned you before. You can party all you want. You can even
do nothing and live off our family. We have plenty of money, it willst you forever. I told you not to mess
around but you didn’t want to listen! Moreover, you sent someone to rob other’s goods they just bought
from the auction. You humiliated the Hugo family in front of all the first-ss aristocratic family!”
…
His father’s aggressive words still rang in Neil’s ear.
“Mr. White, I am truly sorry for what happened today. It’s my son’s fault. Here is a little something from
me. I hope you will ept it!”
Seeing jackie had already forgiven his son, Master Hugo pped his hands. Two bodyguards stepped
forward and opened up two suitcases. The suitcases were filled with cash.
Chapter 185 “Here is three million dors for you. Although it’s not a lot, take it as a token of our regard!
I’m sorry to startle you!” Master Hugo was very sincere; there was no affectation at all.
jackie smiled indifferently after listening to his words. He took a slight nce at the suitcases on the
ground, “Three million is definitely not a lot!”
Master Hugo’s face darkened. He did not expect jackie would think it was too little. Was jackie still
unhappy about what happened? They would be in deep trouble if that was the case.
However, jackie changed the topic, “But considering you came here with a sincere attitude, you even
brought along the top executives of your family and your son here to apologize, I’ll ept your regards.
Forget about the money, I don’t like it. Your sincere attitude is more than enough!”
“No!” Fiona was standing by the door. Her eyes were burning as she stared at the money. She was so
shocked when she heard jackie rejecting the money. Instantly, she pushed the door open and ran
outside.
“You punk, how can you reject the money? They brought so many people here and disturbed us. You
have to ept the money!” Fiona immediately stepped forward, closed the two suitcases, and carried
them in her arms.
“That’s right, jackie. So many of them came here; we thought you guys were going to fight. We were
scared to death and we almost became insane. You have topensate us for psychological injuries! If
you don’t want the three million dors, we’ll take it!” Ben spoke up as well. He thought jackie was such a
fool. That was three million dors. They could buy a house in a better location with three million dors.
It was a waste refusing to ept the money.
“The money is for me, not you guys, right?” jackie was stunned for a moment, “Moreover, I thought you
guys said I’m an outsider?”
“What outsider are you talking about? You and Selena have your marriage certificate. As long as both of
you are not divorced, we are still a family, and I am your mother-inw! I was so shocked that I almost
died. You have to ept this money tofort my injured heart!” Fiona said stubbornly, “Moreover, the
money is for you and that means it is a joint property. It’s not up to you to make the decision!”
“Yes, we are all one family. jackie, shouldn’t you ept the money even if it’s for the sake of your
mother-inw?”
Master Hugo was stunned. Heughed and said, “Hah, I didn’t think that your family would be frightened
seeing so many people. I came too abruptly. I thought I would appear more sincere and solemn by
bringing more people here. I didn’t expect that would disturb your family. It’s my fault!”
“Master Hugo, you’re being too polite. Although your son did a mistake, jackie may be too impulsive
sometimes. I hope we can get along peacefully in the future!” Joan heaved a sigh of relief as she said.
“Yes, yes. We must get along peacefully!” Master Hugo smiled. He stepped forward hurriedly and
handed his name card to jackie, “Mr. White, if my son ever misbehaves in the future, you can call me. I’ll
take care of him. I will never let him bother you!”
jackie smiled bitterly. He looked at the name card and it was only then that he said, “You’re afraid that I’ll
kill your son out of impulse, right? You are a very cunning man!”
Master Hugo’s lips twitched. That adjective…
“You punk, what nonsense are you talking about? Let me tell you, my dad is afraid of you because he is
timid, but I’m not afraid of you!” Neil stepped forward angrily when he heard jackie calling his father a
cunning man.
Chapter 186 p! Unfortunately, Master Hugo pped Neil hard across the face, “Who are you yelling
at? Can’t you see jackie was joking?”
“Dad, he…” Neil was fueled with anger. He wanted to tear jackie into pieces badly.
Master Hugo red at him fiercely. Then, he turned around and cupped his hands as he said, ” jackie,
you’re such a humorous guy. I’ll make a move first, and sorry for disturbing you!”
“See you again!” jackie said calmly.
Soon after, the people from the Hugo family drove away. Neil felt aggrieved and insulted on his way
back.
When they finally arrived at the vi’s yard, Neil could no longer hold back himself, “Dad, why did you
stay silent when he treated you that way? We are a second-ss aristocratic family, how can you let a
soldier bully us like that? I can’t ept it!”
It was only then that Master Hugo turned around and looked at his son. He sighed with emotions,
“It’s not because I’m timid, I’m doing it for the sake of our whole family. We havee a long way from
being an ordinary family of small businessmen to bing who we are today in Eastfield. It wasn’t easy
at all! I’ve seen many influential families get destroyed just because they offended someone who they
shouldn’t offend.” He paused for a moment before he continued saying, “Moreover, not long ago, I heard
someone from a first-ss aristocratic family in the next town got removed from the list after offending a
retired King of War. The master and several powerful members of the family were all killed. Only the
servants got away!”
Neil gasped, “No way! That is incredible. How could he destroy a first-ss aristocratic family just like
that?!” Not long after, he started speaking again, “But dad, jackie is just an ordinary veteran. He’s just a
soldier. You think too highly of him!”
“Keep this in mind. Don’t ever look down on anyone. Although jackie is neither famous nor powerful, why
did he have the nerve to hit you? Why is he so carefree and fearless? That at least shows that the
woman in the mask is someone we can’t afford to provoke!” Master Hugo nodded after he was done
talking, “Don’t worry, after all these years, I have grown to have an eye for people. Don’t you ever dare to
mess with jackie next time!”
“Alright…” Neil was not happy but he could only nod his head. He was unlucky this time.
…
“Mum, let me take a look. Is it really three million dors in cash? It’s been quite some time since Ist
saw so much money!” Ben immediately rushed over to Fiona’s side and said excitedly once the people
from the Hugo family left.
“What nonsense are you talking about? This is the money from the Hugo family, how can it be fake?”
Fiona rolled her eyes at Ben. Then, she looked at jackie, ” jackie, although the Hugo family let you off,
you keep troubling us, causing us to live in fear every day. So…”
jackie knew what Fiona wanted to say. He immediately cut her off, “It’s only three million dors, you can
take it if you want, Mum. But it’s gettingte now; it would be difficult for us to find a ce to stay the
night…”
Fionaughed and said, “Hah, why look for a ce to stay? It’s not like you don’t have a ce to stay.
Just stay here. But as you have mentioned, you have to give us the money you promised us on the old
master’s birthday. This matter remains unchanged. If you can’t give us the money, you will be a liar. We
will ask Selena to get a divorce! “
“Yes. Either you give us the money and show us you’re not lying or prove to us that the Goddess of War
is your friend, otherwise, we will not ept you!” Ben said.
Chapter 187
Selena remained a cold face as she red at her mother, “Mom, don’t you think you changed your mind
too fast? Even if you’re letting him stay, he cannot sleep in the same room as me. I’m still angry! It’s only
three million dors. I won’t trust this liar just for the money.” Selena spoke to jackie in such a harsh
manner earlier. It was impossible she would change her attitude suddenly. It was too embarrassing for
her.
“Where do you want him to sleep if both of you don’t sleep together? Don’t let him sleep on your bed
then,y a mattress on the ground!” Fiona felt assured carrying the three million dors, “Don’t you worry,
there are about twenty days left until your grandfather’s birthday. If he can’t give us forty million dors by
then, he will get kicked out. We will soon know whether he is a liar or not!”
“Forty million dors? Didn’t we agree on thirty million dors?” Jenny, the maid, was shocked, “Why did
the amount increase by ten million dors?”
“The price has increased. The betrothal gifts are not ten million but twenty million dors now. Moreover,
jackie agreed to this! Right, jackie?” Fiona crossed her arms in front of her chest as she stood there
proud as always.
“Don’t worry, I will give you twenty million dors. You won’t lose a single penny!” jackie smiled.
“Yes, yes, Selena’s mother. You have to believe my son. He is capable of earning the money!”
Joan stepped forward and said with a smile. After ending her sentence, she walked toward Selena and
advised her, “Selena, even if it’s for the sake of your child, you should believe jackie. I believe in my son
and he will not lie to you. Moreover, Kylie likes her father, am I right?”
Selena pursed her lips and rolled her eyes at jackie, “Alright, I’ll give you about another twenty days. We
will know whether you’re a liar on Grandfather’s birthday. By then, don’t me me for being heartless!”
“Kylie,e here. Let’s go, daddy will give you a bath. Grandma will make dinner then we’ll have a
delicious mealter!” jackie squatted down and smiled at Kylie.
“Alright!” Kylie ran straight into jackie’s embrace excitedly.
Selena felt a mix of emotions as she saw jackie walking away while carrying Kylie.
“My old man, three million dors. We’re rich now. We’re really rich now!” Fiona was thrilled as she
carried the suitcases and said, “Tomorrow, let’s go deposit the money tomorrow morning!”
Soon after, the family finished their dinner. jackie came into the room and lied down on the floor.
Selena got out of the shower. She was dressed in a light blue nightgown. The nightgown looked silky and
soft. jackie could see Selena’s fair legs behind the nightgown. It was so attractive.
“What are you looking at?” Selena shot jackie a re as she saw the guy staring at her legs.
Soon after, a thought came to her mind. She winked at jackie and spoke in a seducing tone, “Baby, do
you want to kiss me? You looked so absorbed staring at me. Should I give you a chance?”
Chapter 188
jackie did not expect Selena would say such a thing at that timing. Looking at their daughter who was
already fast asleep on the bed, jackie nodded, “Of course, I would love to kiss you!”
Selena blushed as she walked toward jackie. Then, she said, “I’ll let you kiss me if you tell me the truth!”
“Are you sure? You’ll let me kiss you if I tell you the truth?” jackie frowned. He felt that things were much
moreplicated than it looked.
“Of course! I never go back on my words!” Selena swore.
“Alright, I’ll tell you the truth!” jackie raised his hand and swore.
“Then tell me honestly, is that girl in the mask really the Goddess of War?” Selena asked.
jackie nodded his head, “Of course. She is Lana, the only Goddess of War. It’s real!”
“Is she really your friend? Don’t lie to me!” Selena stared at jackie as though she wanted to see through
everything.
jackie smiled bitterly and said, “Alright, I was actually lying previously. She’s actually not my friend!”
Selena’s face darkened as she heard his words. She was not his friend and she was rich; did jackie
really be a toyboy to earn forty million dors?
“I knew it. You’re a liar!” Selena’s eyes turned red as she felt hurt.
“I’m sorry, I just wanted to live in peace. She’s not my friend, she’s actually my apprentice!”
jackie said helplessly, “You’re the only person who knows this. I don’t want to lie to you because you’re
my woman. Don’t tell mother and the rest!”
“Apprentice?” Selena was shocked. She doubted what she heard, “You’re getting more ridiculous! I didn’t
believe you when you said she’s your friend, but now you say she’s your apprentice…”
“What’s so ridiculous about this? She really is my apprentice!” jackie shrugged, “You’re the one who kept
pestering me to tell you. Now that I have told you, you don’t believe me!”
“Why don’t you say all nine Gods of War are your apprentice? This is ridiculous!” Selena rolled her eyes
at jackie.
“Actually, what you said is true. All of them are my apprentices.” jackie did not know whether tough or
cry, “I didn’t think you would notice. My wife, you’re incredible!”
Selena almost fainted. That guy was really shameless. When did he get the nerve to say all nine of them
were his apprentice? Who did he think he was?
“I’m sick of your lies, you liar. You’re such a big fool! Oh my, why did I believe that you can bring
happiness to our family? You only know how to brag!” Selena looked at jackie, turned around, and was
prepared to go to bed.
“Wait!” jackie pulled her back and cornered her against the wall with one hand above her head. He
stepped forward and stood closer to her body.
“You, what are you trying to do?” Flustered, Selena’s heart raced uncontrobly. Her beautiful eyes were
wide open.
“You said that I can kiss you if I tell you the truth earlier. You can’t just go back on your words, can you?”
jackie smirked and stared at the person in front of him.
“But…you didn’t tell me the truth. You’re still lying to me…” Selena lifted her head angrily.
Chapter 189
“Mm!” Before she could finish talking, he lowered his head and nted a kiss on her red lips.
Selena’s eyes instantly went wide open. She was dumbstruck. She never thought that jackie was so bold
and dared to kiss her like that. Her heart raced uncontrobly and she felt weak in her knees!
“Go away!” She pushed jackie away when she came to her senses. Then, she said angrily, “You jerk,
how, how can you kiss me like that… I shouldn’t have let you sleep in the same room with me!”
“You promised me just now. Now that I told you the truth, you have to keep your promise!” jackie licked
his lips and walked back to his mattress. He lied down and savored the moment, “I decided not to brush
my teeth tomorrow. I will certainly have a sweet dream tonight!”
Selena was pissed. She never knew jackie could be such a rascal at times. It was both Selena and
jackie’s day off the next morning. The two of them were getting ready to send Kylie to her kindergarten.
…
Selena’s anger dissipated overnight. Walking on the streets while they were all dressed up, they looked
like a beautiful scene from a movie.
“Let me tell you, there is only twenty-four days left until Grandfather’s birthday. Did you prepare the gift
already? It’s not easy to find a gift worth tens of millions dors!”
The taxi arrived in front of a private kindergarten. Wearing a cold face, Selena said, “I’m not kidding. If
you can’t fulfill your promise, it means that you’re lying to me all this while!”
“Gifts worth tens of millions dors? Wouldn’t I appear too insincere then?” jackie smiled indifferently, “I
should at least prepare over a hundred million dors worth of gifts to make my wife proud!”
“A hundred million dors? Look at you; you don’t even blush when you’re bragging!” Selena was
speechless. That guy really knew how to brag. If it was not for the sake of her daughter, she would have
chased him away. She felt like she was such a fool for believing that guy’s sweet talk. It seemed like his
words cannot be trusted easily.
“Honey, give me a minute, I need to use the restroom there. Both of you wait for me here!” jackie looked
at the public toilet at the side and said.
“Go, go. Darn you, you’re such a nuisance!” Selena said grumpily.
“Hey, is this Selena? What are you doing here?” As soon as jackie left, a middle-aged woman holding a
little boy walked toward Selena with a smile on her face.
“Rachel, oh my god! It’s you! I haven’t seen you for years!” Selena was delighted, “I can’t believe I am
meeting my college ssmate here! Is this kid here your son?”
“Yes. He’s already in the senior ss of kindergarten!” Rachel smiled and looked at Kylie, “Is this your
daughter? She looks so adorable. She will grow up into a very beautiful woman like her mother!”
“You’re ttering me. Your son is very handsome too, he must be a very sessful person in the future!”
Selena was very happy to meet her college ssmate whom she had not met for years.
“Of course. Just look at who is his father; he’s a manager in a factory!” Rachel’s face was glowing with
pride. She looked at the kindergarten next to her, “This is the most expensive kindergarten in Eastfield.
The annual tuition fee cost as much as the annual sry of some office workers. Those who earn lesser
might only be able to afford to send their kids here if they don’t eat or drink for two years.” Speaking of
which, she showed off again, “my son is studying here. He’s in the senior ss of kindergarten now.”
“Really? That’s great. I’m signing up for my daughter today. How much is the fee?” Selena smiled.
“Did I hear you wrongly? You’re sending your daughter to this kindergarten? Do you have the money?”
Rachel stunned for a second. Then, she looked Selena up and down, “Selena, this is the best and the
most expensive kindergarten in Eastfield. I think you’d better forget it. I understand your situation now.
You can’t afford to send your daughter to this kindergarten!”
“Yes, yes. Kids from a poor family can never afford to study at this kindergarten!” Rachel’s son was very
cocky as well.
Chapter 190
Selena’s face darkened as she heard what Rachel said. It was a happy coincidence to bump into an old
ssmate there, but she did not expect that she would look down on her. Rachel met and married a
wealthy man during her second year of university. Not long after she graduated, she got pregnant and
had a baby. Therefore, her son was already six years old and was studying in the senior ss of the
kindergarten.
“How much is the tuition fee here?” Selena was not sure about the tuition fees; she only heard that the
kindergarten was the best.
“it would cost at least a hundred and twenty thousand dors a year including the living expenses. So?
Do you have enough money?” Rachelughed and said, “Selena, you were the prettiest girl in our ss
back then. There were rumors saying that you were born in a rich family too. Everybody in our ss
envied you!”
Rachel paused for a moment after finishing her sentence. Then, she continued saying, “Too bad, I heard
my husband said you married a delivery guy and he was sent to the army on the second day of your
marriage? He didn’te back for five years. I bet he’s already dead on the battlefield right now?
Moreover, your family chased you out because you were pregnant. Tsk, what a miserable life!”
Selena was embarrassed, “Seems like your husband is very well-informed!”
“Well, that’s for sure. After all, he is considered as one of the upper-ss people. Moreover, he has
thousands of staff in his factory. That is why he always keeps tabs on influential families’ affairs! Also,
you were given the title of ‘Most Beautiful Woman in Eastfield’ by the boys. So, you’ve be the focus
in this city. How can we not pay attention to you? My husband told me you were having a hard time
looking for jobs. Hah, I never expected a white swan-like you would turn into an ugly duckling.”
A wave of emotions washed over Rachel. Back then, she almost became the prettiest girl in their ss
but Selena always had an edge over her. She always took away her spotlight.
That was why she felt resentment against Selena.
“A hundred twenty thousand dors a year. This is…” Selena frowned. It was pretty challenging for her.
She only had a hundred thousand dors with her. She thought that would be way more than enough.
She did not expect the annual tuition fee for a kindergarten to cost that much. She did not have enough
money.
Rachel was satisfied looking at Selena’s face, “What’s wrong? Are you surprised? This is the best
kindergarten. Mothers call this kindergarten a noble kindergarten. Only the upper-ss families can
afford to send their children to this kindergarten. If you’re not a millionaire, I’m afraid you won’t be able to
send your children here!”
Selena smiled awkwardly. She was thinking of asking her mother to transfer her some moneyter so
she could pay for the tuition fees. After all, her mother had just gotten three million dors yesterday. She
would have three million and eight hundred thousand dors with her.
That amount of money was huge enough. Moreover, they were in cash. Fiona and Andrew were riding
their electric scooter, on their way to the bank to keep the money. On the other hand, they came here by
taxi with their kid.
Rachel spoke as Selena remained silent, “That is why I said kids from a poor family cannot afford to
study in this kindergarten. You better bring your daughter and look for another ce. Some public
kindergartens would be much cheaper. The annual tuition fee might cost only a few thousand dors. I’m
sure you can afford a few thousand dors, right? If things still don’t work out, I’ll lend you some money. I
take pity on you. After all, we used to be ssmates.”
“You don’t have to do that! I don’t like owing people favors!” Selena smiled bitterly and said.
“you are still so stubborn as always. Come on, admit it if you don’t have money. There’s nothing to be
ashamed of. You should borrow some money and let your child study first!”
Wearing a smug grin on her face, Rachel walked over and held her son’s hand. Then, she waved at
Selena,” Selena, I’ll head in to register my son first.”
Chapter 191
Selena could not be bothered with her. She never thought that Rachel would be so materialistic after all
these years.
“Let’s go!” jackie said as he quickly came over with a smile.
“There’s not enough money. I’ve just met my university mate. Her son is also studying in this
kindergarten. She told me that the yearly fees will be a hundred and twenty thousand dors! I’m short
by twenty thousand dors!” Selena frowned, “I wonder if my parents banked in the money yet. Once
they’re done, I’ll have her transfer twenty thousand dors to me!”
“Let’s go! We’ll just swipe my card!” Upon seeing Selena’s frown, jackie could not help but hold her hand
and pulled her in.
“Ah!” By the time Selena realized what was going on, jackie had already pulled her along for quite a
distance.
It was the first time they held hands like that, causing her cheeks to blush. jackie’s other hand was
holding onto Kylie’s little hand. After entering kindergarten, Selena felt really embarrassed and struggled
to break free.
jackie came to a stop as well. He crouched down and looked at Kylie, asking, “Kylie, do you want to
study? If you study here, you’ll have a lot of toys and many friends to y with you. In the future, daddy
and mommy wille to pick you up when we’re free. If we’re busy, then Aunt Jenny wille to pick
you up!”
“Really? There’ll be many friends and toys? That’s wonderful!” Kylie’s eyes brightened upon hearing that
and started jumping up and down from excitement.
Looking at the father and daughter duo interacting harmoniously, a faint smile appeared on Selena’s
face. Very soon, they led Kylie into the kindergarten. After registration, they were about to pay the fees.
Right then, Rachel, who just finished paying her fees, saw them.
“Oh my, Selena, you’re still here? Why did youe in?” Rachel eximed in surprise, then looked over
at jackie, “Oh, your husband hasn’te back in five years. He should be long dead on the battlefield,
right? Is this the stepdad you found for your child? He seems quite handsome. However, his clothing
seems ratherckluster. Sigh, why didn’t you learn from your mistake? What’s the use of liking a
handsome guy? You should look for a rich one!” After that, she continued her monologue, “You see,
without money, you can onlye in and have a look. You can’t even register here. My condolences!”
“Dear parent, they’ve already registered. They’re here to pay the fees!” One of the female teachers
interjected with a smile.
“Impossible! She can’t possibly fork out a hundred and twenty thousand dors! Did they con you?”
Rachel had a surprised look on her face, which quickly turned into a smile. “I’m her university mate. Of
course, I know what’s their financial situation like!”
“University mate, eh?” jackie was long annoyed by her speech. It was fine for her to humiliate him, but for
her to say that to Selena…
He smiled coldly, then stated, “It would seem that education does not guarantee character. I see that
you’re quite well to do. Why is your personality not matching up?”
Chapter 192
“Just who are you? I’m speaking to my ssmate, it’s not your ce to butt in!” That middle-ageddy
was annoyed. However, she quickly sneered and eximed condescendingly, “Oh my, Selena, you
found this guy to be your man? Not only is he poor, but he also seems rather uncultured. The way he
speaks is just so vulgar and lowly, as though he’s entitled because of his poverty. I’m amazed!”
“who told you I’m poor?” jackie chuckled, then took out an ATM card and passed it to the kindergarten
principal’s assistant who was in charge of fees. “We’ll pay by card. No password is needed!”
“Tsk…tsk… you’ve managed to borrow a hundred and twenty thousand dors that quickly? It must’ve
been hard! I’m sure you’ve burnt through all your options to get it!” Rachel sneered once again.
“It’s just a measly hundred and twenty thousand dors. Why would I need to borrow?”
jackie was at a loss. She was just too condescending.
Right then, that middle-aged woman’s son started crying.
“What’s the matter, my precious? Why did you fall on the floor?!” Taking a look, that woman’s heart
ached. She could not be bothered to deal with jackie any longer and ran over to help her son up.
“Mommy, she pushed me!” The little boy used and pointed at Kylie.
“What?!” This time around, Rachel exploded in a furious rage. She stood up and shoved Kylie to the
floor. With that, Kylie fell to the floor and started crying as well.
jackie and Selena never expected that an adult would treat a little girl with such violence.
Moreover, Kylie was not even four years old yet.
Selena immediately ran over and helped Kylie up, then confronted Rachel with a cold look. “Rachel
Linsay, why did you push my daughter? Isn’t it normal for there to be some small fights between kids?
You’re an adult and you shoved her with that much force. If my daughter is injured, you’ll have to be
responsible!”
“fret not. I’m loaded. Of course, I can take the responsibility! I can totally afford to pay medical
compensation! Furthermore, it’s you that didn’t teach your daughter proper manners. She pushed my
son first so I pushed her back. That’s considered fair!” Rachel had a domineering look on her.
“Kylie, you’re only four years old. Why are you so naughty? Why did you push that brother? Didn’t you
want a friend to y together?” Selena felt rather helpless as well. After all, it could have really been
Kylie that pushed the other kid first.
“Mommy, I…I didn’t push him! He said that I’m a bstard child without a daddy and threatened to hit me.
He said he wanted to hit a bstard child that no daddy will protect!”
“I just moved out of the way and he identally fell over…” Kylie’s eyes were filled with tears, feeling
aggrieved.
Hearing that, Selena’s expression darkened. Nobody noticed what had happened earlier. “Kylie, are you
telling the truth?”
Selena felt aggrieved as well. For the past five years, she would asionally overhear others talking
about Kylie being a b*stard child. That was very hurtful to the feelings of a child that was only four years
old.
“Mommy, it’s the truth. She was the one that said that I’m a b*stard child and wants to hit me!” Kylie said
pointing at Rachel.
Chapter 193
Selena patted Kylie on the head. “Good girl, don’t cry, don’t cry!”
Afterforting Kylie, Selena stood up and her face turned icy cold in an instant. “Rachel Linsay, you’re
going too far! Your son fell on his own and you me my daughter? Moreover, Kylie is not a b*stard
child. She has a father!”
“She’s a bstard child. Definitely a bstard child. Mommy said so. A child without a father is a bstard child!
Her father died in the war. If she’s not a bstard child, then what is she?” Rachel’s son felt unconvinced
and started shouting.
“Who said she has no father? He’s her father. He’s back from the war.” It was the first time jackie
witnessed Selena losing her temper like that. Her daughter was her entire world. She could tolerate small
fights between kids, but when the other party was an adult that shoved Kylie unreasonably, that was
something she could not tolerate.
“Who knows if your daughter might be lying? Moreover, how would I know that he’s your daughter’s
biological father?” Although Rachel was feeling slightly guilty, she still maintained a firm stance despite
being in the wrong.
“You must apologize to my daughter immediately or I’ll never forgive you!” Selena red at Rachel.
“Dear parent, your son did try to push this little girl and ended up falling to the ground himself!” said a
female teacher that witnessed the scene. “Everyone is just doing it for the good of the children, right? We
all care for our children. Your child is precious and so are the children of others. You just need to
apologize!”
Rachel felt sorely ashamed, shaking her head then barked at the female teacher, “Mind your own
business! Only rich children are precious. How can poor children be considered precious? Much less a
b*stard!”
“Didn’t you hear? Apologize to my daughter!” Selena held onto Rachel as she reprimanded her.
“Get lost, Selena Taylor. Do you think I’m afraid of you? If not because we were university mates, I won’t
even talk to someone like you. I’m someone of the upper ss of society. Don’t you dare pull my shirt?
Once it’s torn, you can’t afford to pay for it!” Rachel held her head up, not remorseful at all.
“If you don’t apologize, I’ll never let you go!” Selena’s mind was set.
“Scram!” Rachel shoved and managed to push Selena a few steps backward.
Riiiiip!
Rachel’s sleeve was torn offpletely from her shoulders.
“Damn it. Which crazy woman dares bully a woman belonging to me, Dn Tucker!?” Right then, Dn,
who wasing over to pick up his wife and son saw Rachel’s sleeve being torn. Without asking for
rification, he immediately reacted by raising his hand to p at Selena.
“Dn, get her. Hit that b*tch!” Seeing her own husband’s arrival, Rachel felt all the more confident. “This
woman and her daughter are both trash. I think they’re just jealous of our riches!”
Dn had a terrible expression on his face. His hand was raised, just about to hit Selena’s face.
“Ah!” Selena was shocked. She wanted to dodge, but it was toote.
However, before Dn’s hand could swing downward, it was held tightly.
“Do you think I’m invisible?” jackie’s expression was ice cold. He red at Dn and growled through
gritted teeth, “You dare bully my wife and daughter. I think you’re tired of living!”
Chapter 194
“Ah!” Dn made a disgusting shriek as he felt his bones almost shattered. That excruciating pain
caused the veins on his forehead to bulge and his eyes widen.
“Son of a b*tch! Do you know who I am? I’m a factory manager with over a thousand people under me.
You dare attack me?” He bellowed at jackie through gritted teeth.
“Dear parents, please don’t fight. We can talk this over peacefully!” The kindergarten teachers and
principal were all in shock. They did not expect a fight on registration day.
“Factory manager? I don’t care what manager you are, that doesn’t let you bully my daughter and wife.
Otherwise, I’ll make sure your factory closes down with a phone call!” jackie chuckled, then shoved him
aside with a push.
Dn, who seemed bulky, was actually rather weak. jackie did not use much strength, but he ended up
falling over on the ground,nding on his back.
“Ouch!” Dn eximed. He then climbed back on his feet with great difficulty and massaged his
buttocks.
“Y-y-you useless trash. How can you lose to such a skinny bugger!” Upon seeing her own husband being
unreliable, Rachel was even more frustrated.
“Ouch. Kid, I dare you to wait here. Just you wait!” Dn pointed angrily at jackie. He knew that jackie’s
strength was great and he was of no match. With that, he quickly made a phone call. As he reached the
door, he turned around and looked at Rachel. “Honey, don’t worry. I’m just making a call. Bloody h*ll, how
dare he bully my wife!”
“you’re doomed! I’ll have you know that you won’t be leaving this kindergarten today!” Rachel huffed at
him angrily.
“Apologize to my daughter and wife!” jackie could not be bothered with Dn. Instead, he turned his
attention to Rachel and demanded coldly.
“Hmph, you want me to apologize? Dream on!” Rachel replied as she put on an arrogant expression.
Whoosh! Unexpectedly, the very next instant, jackie stretched out his hand and tore off the other sleeve
from her. Her white t-shirt suddenly turned into a sleeveless one, giving her a pathetic look.
“Y-y-you son of a b*tch. How dare you rip my clothes? Pervert! Honey, he’s a pervert—” Rachel began
yelling.
“I’ll count to three. If you don’t apologize to my wife and daughter, I’ll tear your shirt and pants to shreds!”
jackie’s expression remained extremely dark, giving them no room for negotiations.
“You dare?” Rachel took a step forward, then puffed her chest up.
“One.”
“Two.”
jackie ignored her and approached her as he counted, stretching his hands.
“I-I-I’m wrong. It’s my mistake, okay?” Seeing that jackie was crazy enough to carry through his threat,
Rachel was almost scared to tears. She took a few steps back and then covered her chest with her
hands, afraid that jackie would grope at them.
Selena was stupefied by the sight. ‘This person is so thick-skinned?’ However, that solution seemed
quite effective. Otherwise, how would Rachel admit her mistake? Nevertheless, she was definitely
insincere!
“Forget it. Let’s go!” Seeing Rachel behaving that way, Selena’s anger subsided as well. She had no
intention of staying any longer.
“Sure, whatever you say, honey!” jackie nodded, then carried Kylie from the ground and led Selena
toward the exit.
Rachel looked at jackie’s back, her gaze filled with viciousness and grievance.
‘That Selena Taylor…it’s been so many years after graduation, yet she still lords over me and utterly
embarrassed me today.’
Rachel secretly followed them, trying to see if the people her husband called for had arrived.
“What’s the matter? Do you want to leave? Stay here. I dare you to stay!” Dn came forward to stop
jackie as he saw them trying to leave.
Chapter 195
“I dare, but why should I wait for you to bring people over to be beaten up by me?” jackie chuckled and
replied bluntly.
“Bullsh*t. You’re just scared and trying to escape. If you really dare, why are you trying to leave?” Dn
was unconvinced, blocking the door with his hands.
“You think I want to leave? It’s because my wife is asking me to go. It’s difficult for me to find time to
apany my wife and daughter for shopping. How can I waste my time on some inconsequential
matters like you?” jackie shrugged, dismissive of the person in front of him.
However, right at that moment, several vans drove by and pulled over in front of the kindergarten gates.
Upon seeing the arrival of his men, Dn’s expression turned into one of joy. “it’s toote for you to go
now. My men are already here!”
“Fantastic!” Rachel saw that and immediately ran over, standing beside her man and said, “you wanted
me to apologize? If not because I’m afraid of you earlier, I’ll never apologize. I’ll have you know that
today will be your doom!”
jackie quickly handed Kylie over to Selena, then smiled. “Sigh, it seems that I’ll have to beat fear into you
guys or you’ll never be satisfied!”
“Beat him up! Bloody hell, turn him into a cripple. I’ll give you twenty thousand dors each!”
Dn ordered his men.
“what if they get hurt? You’ll pay for the medical bills, right?” jackie asked with a mischievous grin.
“Nonsense. I’m loaded. If they’re hurt, I’ll naturally pay for their medical expenses! However, you’re all
alone. Do you think you can defeat a dozen of them? Do you know my greatness now?” Dn led his
wife and son to the back, then ordered, “Go, beat him up. Beat him with all you have!”
In under twenty seconds, the people he brought over were all lying on the ground, moaning in pain.
“They are suffering from fractured bones in various ces, some in their hands, some on the legs, and
some on their chests. Tsk…tsk… the medical expenses for this would be quite a hefty amount!” jackie
smiled calmly as he pped.
“This…” Dn and Rachel exchanged nces, then both swallowed hard. They were not sure if their
ears were ying tricks on them. If what jackie said was real, then they would be losing a lot of money.
Moreover, the family members of these workers would also cause trouble for them.
“Oh yeah, my daughter will be studying here in the future. Your son better take a detour around my
daughter, understand? Otherwise, your little factory might just be gone. Moreover, if I want to kill trash
like you, it’s easily done!”
With that said, jackie picked up a cobblestone from the ground and gripped it hard. That cobblestone
with the size of a chicken egg quickly turned into dust, blown away by the wind.
“Oh my heavens, Honey, is he still a human?” Rachel had never seen such a strong person. She was in
so much shock that her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
“Yes, of course. Don’t worry, we’ll never bully your wife and daughter ever again. I swear by the
heavens!” Dn, who obeyed the strong and bullied the weak, was terrified. His face turned pale and his
voice trembled.
“You wouldn’t dare even if you’re given ten lives!” Seeing his reaction, jackie was able to roughly guess
what kind of personality he had. He then took his leave along with Selena and Kylie.
“Howe you’re that strong? That’s too amazing.” Selena finally could not resist rolling her eyes at
jackie after walking some distance.
She must admit that despite this person’s love to get into fights and stir up trouble, hisbat power was
truly amazing. That gave her a strong sense of security.
“Your husband is a dragon!” jackie answered matter-of-factly.
Selena was speechless. That person had an easily intable ego. Right at that moment, Selena’s phone
started ringing. After answering the call, Selena’s expression turned extremely ugly.
“What’s wrong, honey?” jackie could feel something was amiss with one look and asked quickly.
“It’s not good. My mother is trying to kill herself in anger!”
Chapter 196
“It can’t be. Your mother doesn’t seem like one who would kill herself out of anger!” jackie smiled bitterly.
Although he did not understand Fiona in the past, he had roughly figured her out over the past few days.
Fiona loved money. She loved it very, very much. How could a person like that try to kill herself out of
anger?
Selena was panicking as well. “Honey, what should we do? 3.8 million dors! My parents ced them in
a big bag and were ready to deposit them in the bank. Unexpectedly, right at the door of the bank, they
were robbed by two robbers on a bike!”
Upon hearing that, jackie sighed. 3.8 million dors was a huge sum, yet it was taken away just like that.
If it were anything else, Fiona might not have been suicidal. However, with that amount, it was very
possible for someone that loved money as her own life like Fiona.
“It was quite tough for us to acquire that money. My mother was even thinking of finding time to look for a
house. Who knew that in front of the bank, they would…”
Selena’s mood immediately soured. With that much money gone in an instant, even her heart was
aching, especially now that she greatly needed the money.
“Selena, don’t worry. Although it’s not much money, my money shall not be easily taken away by anyone
just like that!” jackie assured Selena with a calm expression.
Having said that, he frowned again, asking, “However, I wonder… You said your parents had over 3
million dors in hand, but they put it in such an insignificant gunny sack. They also dress very casually.
How could the robbers knew that it was filled with money? Moreover, they were robbed right as they got
out of the car?”
Hearing his deductions, Selena was dumbfounded for a moment. “Eh, now that you said it, this does
seem a little too coincidental. Could it really be a deliberate attempt?” Selena bit on her sexy red lips and
frowned slightly, falling into deep thought.
“It couldn’t be or could it?” After some thinking, Selena muttered softly.
“Who do you suspect?” jackie asked immediately.
“I think it might be Xena!” Selena then followed up, “I’ve never liked that woman! Furthermore, she’s two-
faced. My family has no idea what kind of person she is, especially my brother. He loves Xena. Even if I
told him some things about her, he would never believe it!
“What do you mean by telling him some things about her?!” jackie was confused.
Selena looked at jackie, then added, “I’ve always been against my brother being together with Xena. I’ve
seen it a few times. It waste at night, and she would stumble out of a bar with a few uncouth young
men with dyed hair. She was smoking with them. Looking like that, she’s just a female gangster.
Moreover, she had a tattoo on her chest. I just don’t like her!”
At that point, Selena took a moment’s pause before continuing. “Furthermore, one time, I saw a man
hugging her around the waist. Although it was only for a few seconds before the other party let go of her,
I could feel that their rtionship was not that simple.”
“You didn’t tell your brother about that matter?” jackie asked after giving it some thought.
Selena chuckled bitterly, “No. My brother doesn’t do anything with his life anyway. He just likes ying
games at inte cafes. That’s how he met Xena. they yed the same game!”
“I see.”
Chapter 197
Fishing a cigarette from his pocket, jackie started smoking. It was still the cheapest White-Sand
cigarette, the same familiar vor.
After taking a deep breath, jackie finally responded, “So it means that Xena is good at deception. She
dresses simply in front of your brother and seems very innocent, yet she hangs out with some good-for-
nothings in secret? Moreover, your brother is deeply in love with her. You’re not telling your brother
because you know he won’t believe you even if you told him?”
Selena nodded. “That’s how things are. With my brother’s personality, if you were to tell him, he might
even lose his temper. I’ve tried hinting to him a few times, telling him that Xena is not marriage material
and urged him to reconsider! In the end, he didn’te home for a few days straight, spending all that
time at the inte cafe with Xena!”
At that point, Selena looked to jackie once more. “Moreover, my brother needs money to pay the inte
cafe and would always ask me or your mother. If we have no money to give him, he would yell at us,
saying that you’re to me as he might still be a young master of the Taylor family with tens of thousand
dors of pocket money each month if not for you.”
Hearing that, jackie felt slightly angry. It would seem that over the past few years, Selena and his mother
had endured many indignations from Ben. Furthermore, there was also the mother-inw that was
difficult to deal with.
“Could it be that Xena and your brother plotted together and arranged for this robbery? Is that a
possibility?” jackie asked once more after giving it some thoughts.
This time, Selena shook her head without hesitation. “That’s impossible. Some time ago, my mother just
gave him 50 thousand dors to get some gifts for Xena. He didn’t even use up the 50 thousand dors.”
Having said that, Selena paused for a moment and added, “My brother is not that brazen. Although he
wastes his life away, he won’t stoop to that level. Moreover, if he’s out of money, he will surely find a way
to ask my mother. He won’t resort to robbing!”
“Mm!” jackie nodded. “Although Xena may not be a decent woman and might be having rtions with
other men in secret, we have no proof that she was responsible for today’s matter. That’s why we better
not make wild ims!”
Selena naturally knew that. She was afraid of using the innocent. “That’s right. This is just my
spection. If I used her wrongfully, that would be bad. Don’t tell my family about those matters I told
you earlier as we have no evidence. Moreover, I was stupid back then for not taking a few pictures with
my phone…”
“Alright, where’s your mother? Let’s head over quickly. We must get back that 3.8 million
Dors!” jackie smiled calmly, then waved for a taxi.
“They’re at the bank. It’s on Heavenly Dragon street. I don’t think we can get the money back. With that
much money, if the robbers left Eastfield straight away, then it’ll be very difficult to get that money back!”
Selena was feeling helpless. Furthermore, the power ys in Eastfield wereplicated, making it
difficult to deal with many matters.
“Don’t worry. Those that offend me won’t end well!” jackie stated. His gaze clear and calm.
The taxi quickly stopped by the bank’s entrance. Meanwhile, Fiona was seated at the curb outside the
bank in tears while Andrew was consoling her.
“Ma, stop crying. There are so many people watching. It’s embarrassing!” Selena approached them and
said in a helpless tone.
“It’s over 3 million dors! That’s over 3 million dors! I’ve never seen that much money for five years.
Now that I finally have it, it was taken away from me just like that. How can I not cry?” Fiona was wiping
her tears while looking at Selena and jackie. “It’s because of you. If both of you followed us to the bank,
will we get robbed?”
jackie was speechless. How was he to me? “Mother, don’t worry. This money won’t be lost!” jackie
smiled bitterly, trying to console her.
Chapter 198
“You said it. You said it yourself. I don’t care. If you can’t recover the money, you’ll have to give me 3.8
million!” Upon hearing jackie’s response, Fiona immediately stood up and grabbed onto jackie’s cors
and made unreasonable demands.
“Ma, it’s not jackie that took your money. How can you be like this? He can at most help you look for it
and see if he can recover it. Even if he fails to recover the money, you can’t demand the money from
him, right?” Selena was speechless. Her own mother was being too unreasonable to expect jackie to
take responsibility for this matter.
“I don’t care. He’s the one that ims to recover the money for sure!” Fiona did not let jackie go.
“Sure, sure. If I can’t find it, you can take it from me!” jackie was speechless as he moved her hands out
of the way. “Mother, don’t you worry. You’re Selena’s mother, that makes you my mother. I won’t let your
money be taken away from you just like that!”
“That’s better!” Fiona finally stopped crying and went back to smiling. She then asked jackie, “You better
give it your best. Give me a deadline. I can’t be waiting forever, right? Can you get it back in a week?”
“Ma, how can it be that easy? Do you think we’re picking up money from the floor? Who knows where
they will be hiding after taking the money?!” Selena felt the need to stand up for jackie as her mother
made it sound like jackie owed her the three million dors.
“He agreed to it himself. You can’t me me, right?” Fiona had seemingly realized her own
unreasonable behavior, but she still crossed her arms and replied, albeit without much confidence.
Having said that, she then looked at the nosy crowd around her. “What’re you looking at? There’s
nothing to see here. Get lost!”
“Alright, Mother. I’ll promise you to get them back in one week, okay? If I can’t recover the money, I’ll add
it to the betrothal gifts during Grandfather’s birthday. How’s that sound?”
jackieforted.
“Good. You’re quite understanding, unlike my daughter who always tries to side with outsiders and not
consider her own mother’s feelings!” Hearing that, Fiona felt happy and her mood improved significantly.
“Alright now, let’s take a taxi back.” Andrew felt rather embarrassed by Fiona’s emotional outburst in
public as well.
“Mm, you guys head back first. I’ll think of a solution!” jackie smiled, then waved a taxi for the two elders
to send them home.
“Look at you. Why did you listen to my mother? She’s too unreasonable! I didn’t even me her for
losing the money, yet she pushes the me onto you and ces a one week limit to find the money. You
think you’re god?” Selena finally ranted in anger after her parents went back and the crowd dispersed.
“I’m not god, but I can definitely help find the money!” jackie smiled calmly,forting her, “She’s your
mother after all. She’s already old. Losing over 3 million dors just like that, she’ll naturally feel horrible.
How can we notfort her? Furthermore, if we med her as you said, she might lose it and kill
herself. What will we do then?”
Hearing such thoughtful words from jackie, Selena’s heart warmed up immediately. She rolled her eyes
at him. “You and your sweet talks. What’s this about my mother being old? Is she that old?”
jackie grinned. “Isn’t she fifty years old already? Is that still not considered old?”
“That’s not true! She’s only forty-nine. Moreover, with proper and consistent skincare, she looked like
someone in herte thirties!” Selena made a bitter smile, then looked at jackie. “What should we do
now? Can we try to ask the bank for their surveince records?”
“Daddy, are we not going to the amusement park?” Beside him, Kylie’s mouth pouted, seemingly
unhappy.
“Go, of course, we’re going!” jackie immediately crouched down,forting her, “Daddy promised to
bring Kylie to y. Of course, we’ll have to go!”
Chapter 199
“Yay, wonderful! I’ve never been to the amusement park!” Kylie was extremely excited.
“Kylie, if you give daddy a kiss, I’ll even bring you to the zoo after going to the amusement park. How
about that?” jackie rubbed Kylie’s little head.
“Yes! Yes! We can go to the zoo as well. I’ve never been to the zoo!” Kylie got even more excited as she
gave jackie a light kiss on his cheek.
jackie felt his heart tremble for a moment. That was his own daughter kissing him like that for the first
time. It was the feeling that only fathers could experience. It has been five years. From the moment Kylie
was born, she had alwayscked fatherly love. He could only try his best to make up for it to the mother-
daughter duo.
“Are we really going?” The scene before Selena had simrly made her heart tremble. She suddenly felt
as though in a trance. jackie might like to boast, but he was indeed a good father, and also an excellent
husband. In fact, being by his side gave her a feeling of security. That feeling was strong despite him
constantly stirring up trouble.
“Of course! I’ve promised our daughter and she even gave me a kiss. As her father, how can I break my
promise?!” jackie was in a great mood.
“But you promised my mother to look for the 3.8 million dors and even said you’ll get it done in a week.
We can’t be wasting time!” Selena naturally wanted to spend time with her daughter as well, but jackie
had promised to recover the money in a week. Should they not be looking for the bank and ask them for
the surveince record for this area?
“How can an outing with my wife and daughter be considered wasting time? Let’s go!” jackie carried Kylie
with a grin on his face and waved at a taxi by the road.
“Yay, this is great. I can go to the amusement park!” Kylie eximed loudly. Perhaps the little girl was
overly excited, she nted another kiss on jackie’s cheek. “Daddy is wonderful. Kylie has a father. I’m
not a b*stard child. Kylie loves daddy!”
“Let’s go and unwind for a day!” Selena followed them into the taxi. She had a joyful expression. For five
years, she had lived every day under stress, causing her to look rather haggard.
That day, their family of three could finally take a day off. Three of them quickly arrived at the amusement
park. They went through all the rides except those that were too dangerous for Kylie to y.
When they’re done, it was already two in the afternoon.
The three of them found a small restaurant for a simple lunch before heading to the zoo.
“Wah, Daddy, look, panda!”
“Wah, Daddy, look, giraffe! It’s just like the drawing!”
“Eh, Daddy, what’s this?”
“Oh, it’s a snake? What snake is this? Will it bite?”
Along the way, the excitable Kylie turned into a curious child.
Selena was at a loss on how to react. Along the way, Kylie would constantly ‘Daddy’ this and ‘Daddy’
that. Somehow, it felt like her daughter was much closer to jackie than her.
“Wah, Daddy, look, tiger!” Wah, Daddy, look! There’s a boy not far from the tiger!”
…
Hearing that, jackie was shocked. He took a quick look and gasped deeply. There was a boy that fell into
the tiger viewing area.
Chapter 200
In the tiger viewing area, there were two ferocious Siberian tigers. In the central area, there was a stone
bridge. Quite a number of tourists would stand on the stone bridge to see the tigers up close and take
pictures with their phones. On the side was a sign warning them not to y or climb over. Unexpectedly,
a boy around seven to eight years old identally fell inside while jumping on the guard rail.
“Ah! Somebody save my son!” A middle-aged woman immediately shouted for help in panic.
“Mommy!”
The skin on the boy’s calf was torn and bleeding. However, the wound was not serious. Unfortunately,
the two Siberian tigers were ferocious carnivores. Upon smelling blood, the tigers that were lying on the
floor stood up and slowly approached the little boy.
“Quick, quickly go get the zoo employees here!”
“Oh god, what can we do? The two tigers areing. Oh my god, that little boy is in danger!”
“What’s the mother doing? Her son was so naughty and ying on the rails, yet she didn’t pay attention
to that. So careless…”
The people on the stone bridge broke into discussions, yet none knew what to do.
“What to do? What to do? Who can save my son!?” That woman was crying. She was panicked and did
not know what to do.
“Somebody save my son. I’ll pay one million dors for whoever that saves my son! No, 10 million…”
The woman quickly changed her mind, thinking that the more she paid, somebody would go down to
rescue the boy.
“Go, faster go save him!”
jackie looked and immediately ced Kylie on the ground. After passing her to Selena, he quickly rushed
toward the stone bridge.
“Is that WOman stupid? Who dares to jump down there? Those are ferocious Siberian tigers, and adults
too. Isn’t it just looking for death to jump in there?”
“That’s right. You can’t throw your life away for money. Although 10 million dors is no small sum, one
needs to survive to use the money, right?”
“That’s right. Only an idiot who has gone nuts for money would jump in to save the boy!”
“Oh, this ce is quite high. If one is unlucky, one might end up getting hurt from the fall jumping down
from here. If the legs are hurt, that’s even harder to save the boy!”
The tourists on the stone bridge started going into a heated debate.
The two Siberian tigers were only two meters away from the boy and were letting out a deep growl.
Seeing that, the woman did not care that she was wearing a skirt and tried to climb over the guard rails.
“Little Jake, Mommy’sing to help you. Don’t be scared!”
“Mommy, help me, help me!”
The little boy seemed to have twisted his ankle. His ankle was red and swollen. The boy kept crying as
he stretched out his hands, trying to hold onto his mother on the bridge.
“Are you trying to die? Just as the woman was about to jump down, jackie finally arrived. He gave her a
pull and pulled her back.
“Let me go. I want to save my son, I want to save my son!” The woman struggled continuously in front of
jackie. The greatness of a mother’s love caused her to disregard her own safety.
“Shut up!” jackie shouted sternly at her. He then lightly tapped on the guard rails and leaped, jumping
down just like that.
That woman was stunned. She never would have expected the young man that just pulled her back
would jump down to save her son.
