Chapter 141 Banquet Night

    Chapter 141 Banquet Night


    After Jack received a call from Katherine.


    He was not in the right state for work. He looked like absent-minded.


    He did not even know how he left from thepany.


    He was already standing outside of Blue Rose Western Restaurant when he came back to sense.


    What a familiar scene. Everything remained the same while only people have changed.


    He smiled a little with some sense of bitterness.


    When Jacked entered the restaurant, he could see Katherine sitting in the corner by the window from


    far.


    It was a breezy sunny day. Everything seemed just right.


    Katherine was wearing a long white dress. She sat there quietly with her hair covering her shoulder.

    She looked gentle and sweet.


    “You’re here?”


    When Katherine saw Jack, she smiled a little.


    Jack nodded and sat down. He asked calmly. “Did anything happen?”


    “I will move out from the home today.”


    Katherine stretched herself and smiled. “I want to leave this city because there are too many sad things


    that happened here.”


    “It’s good to find a new ce to start a new life.” Jack replied calmly.


    “I’m sorry.”


    Katherine suddenly said. “Leaving you makes me realize all the time you have been good to me. It’s


    me who is not good enough for you. It’s me who loses you.”


    Jack felt startled. It was unexpected to hear this from her.


    Katherine had been spoiled since she was young. Her arrogance was deeply in her mind. It was hard


    to imagine that these words woulde out from her mouth.


    Moreover, she was being sincere enough.


    As Jack and Katherine looked at each other directly, time seemed to stop for a while.


    After a long while.


    Jack smiled bitterly, “Everything cannot go back to the old times anymore.”


    He stood up after he replied and walked out.


    Katherine was sitting on the chair as she looked at Jack leaving. Her tears gradually appeared in her


    eyes.


    She raised her hand and wiped her the corner of her eyes. She said, “Kate, don’t cry.”


    During the short meeting of Jack and Katherine, there was a person who held a mobile phone in the


    corner of the alley outside of the restaurant. The person took pictures of everything that happened.


    ...


    After Jack arrived at work, he sorted out all his thoughts and continued focusing at work.


    Katherine was just another passerby in his life.


    Those who left me when I was in trouble shall leave.


    He was being very humble. Unfortunately, what he got in return was the Parry family’s greediness.


    The Parry family deserved whatever that happened to them in the end.


    In the uing three days.


    The set up of QY International Group and YK Group continued to grow and gained the momentum in


    the city.


    With such a momentum, the housing prices would be even higher.


    On the other hand, DT real estate agency remained the restriction of purchasing with a daily


    transaction of 50 units only. This situation made all the buyers go crazy.


    Those who refunded the housing before, they feltpletely regretted.


    Everyone knew that DT real estate agency was dying the time. They were waiting for the housing


    prices to hit the highest price point then only they would proceed forrge pre-sales.


    Something did not seem right.


    The public discussion which Corbin was worried about before did not appear.


    It was not that such an event was not discussed within the city. But... it was unable to form a public


    discussion in the media.


    For the past three days, all the major media from the city only focused on reporting about the QY


    International Group and YK Group’s newmercial centers’ opening.


    As for the housing prices of DT real estate agency and West Shantytowns were not reported much!


    This evening.


    Jack got off from work early.


    When he walked downstairs of thepany, a Rolls Royce was waiting at the roadside.


    He got in the car and asked, “Mr. Ward, are the presents ready?”


    “As per Young master’s request, everything is prepared ordingly.” Mr. Ward smiled a little.


    Brent made a joke while he was driving, “Young master, what a grand gift. Do you want to propose a


    marriage?”


    “Less nonsenses.”


    Jack smiled and said, “Amber’s father helps me so much this time. It is not less than life saving, these


    presents are nothingpared to his help.’


    Tonight, it was the time for him to host a banquet to thank Steve Knight for saving his life.


    This time, DT’s crisis would bring thepany to the verge of bankruptcy.


    Even if Jack’s father defeated Madam Hughes in the end, YK Group was still allowed to set up in the


    city again.


    Steve was able to help Jack when he was struggling at the death’s door. He should be grateful of his


    help.


    This kindness should be repaid in double.


    Some more, it was like a life-saving grace!


    However.


    Mr. Ward smiled a little while deep gazing, “However, if the Young master would like to propose a


    marriage. I do have a special gift that I prepared for you. This gift would make the Knight family very


    happy.”


    “What gift is it?” Jack was curious.


    Mr. Ward did not express an opinion and smiled. He turned around at Brent, “Brent, why are you not


    driving the car? Young master seems like wanting to propose a marriage to the Knight family?”


    Jack felt embarrassed by Mr. Ward’s words.


    Brentughed while he was driving the car.


    In the Four Impressions Club.


    It was brightly lit in the Bamboo Grove.


    Music echoed, the smell of the sandalwood was lingering.


    The Knight family, Minister Mable and Artist Warnock took a seat in the restaurant.


    Amber was looking at outside from time to time.


    Rosie was sitting beside while holding her hand. She sat quietly while listening to the conversation


    among the three persons.


    “Mable, do you really, really want me to lower my head to apologize?” Warnock’s face was twisted. He


    seemed unwilling to do so.


    He was a master of traditional Chinese painting and known internationally along with his extraordinary


    status.


    Normally, even he was in front of powerful people. He was still a respected guest and should be


    pleased by people around him.


    To ask him to lower his head to apologize at a twenty-years old junior was such a hard thing for him.


    Even he knew that it was his fault.


    After hearing this.


    Steve frowned and looked at Minister Mable, “Mable, shouldn’t it be so serious? Perhaps Amber and I


    can plead for mercy for Warnock.”


    When Amber came back to sense she nodded and said, “Yes, Minister Mable. Jack is generous.”


    With Artist Warnock’s current status, she knew that it was too reluctant to ask him to apologize in front


    of Jack.


    Minister Mable sat upright and smiled a little, “Fine, Warnock. I think for yourself, please be


    considerate. Based on Jack’s background, ‘Voyage of Qiantang’ can indeed be sent out at will. There


    are some things that you see may not be true, you should understand this.”


    Artist Warnock was embarrassed. He lowered his head and thought of something.


    Steve was confused and asked, “Mable, what happens to you and Lansing? Everyone seems strange


    as if hiding something. Are there something that cannot be discussed together?”


    Minister Mable nced at Steve. Heughed.


    Discuss together?


    If it was to be discussed, I dared to say it. Would you all believe it?


    If he hadn''t witnessed it with his own eyes, he would not believe Jack’s identity and his family


    background.


    In fact, with Minster Mable’s connection, it was too easy if he wanted to check it out.


    But the information showed that Jack had been an orphan since he was born. He lived a tough life with


    his mother. They were very poor. Jack fought steps by steps by himself until who he was today.


    An unfortunate marriage almost killed Jack’s mother.


    Then a sudden change to Jack, and he experienced and suffered too much, even Minister Mable was


    startled.


    Without waiting for Steve’s question, Artist Warnock sighed, “I, I will give it a try.”


    At this moment.


    There was a sounding from outside of the door.


    “Boss, Jack is here.”


    After hearing this.


    Minister Mable suddenly stood up as if he was shocked by a lightning.


    This scene surprised everyone who were there.


    This reaction... was it a little too over?
