“Yay, yay! We can go for a meal now!” Kylie was dressed in a beautiful mini princess dress while snazzynovel.com pranced delightfully in the courtyard.
“Madam, I won’t be joining you guys. I still have some matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now.” Jenny smiled at Selena.
“A date with your boyfriend again? Oh, you. Hurry up and go!” Selena spoke with a compassionate smile.
Joan had already finished snazzynovel.com shower at that moment. She changed into the new clothes Jack had bought for her; snazzynovel.com looked younger at a short glance. Although snazzynovel.com was already in snazzynovel.com forties, snazzynovel.com looked younger and more elegant. Joan looked effortlessly beautiful, and snazzynovel.com had snazzynovel.com natural elegance as well. Although snazzynovel.com was usually dressed in snazzynovel.com cleaner’s uniform to work, snazzynovel.com still emanated a personal grace that only belonged to snazzynovel.com and no one else. It was also this reason that Jack’s father fell in love with snazzynovel.com back then. Unfortunately…
“Ma, you look pretty in that dress!” Selena smiled as snazzynovel.com took a look at Joan.
“Oh, you. Stop flattering me; I’m already old!” Joan chuckled while snazzynovel.com spoke.
Fiona who was sitting on the side could not hold herself back from mumbling while snazzynovel.com witnessed that scene. “Am I snazzynovel.com birth mother, or is she?” snazzynovel.com mumbled. “Goddamnit…”
Andrew, on the other hand, was smoking. He had a frown on his face as snazzynovel.com seemed to be lost in thoughts. After a moment, snazzynovel.com nudged Fiona next to snazzynovel.com with his elbow and said, “Say, Jack said snazzynovel.com can heal my leg. Do you think it’s possible?”
Fiona immediately said, “You actually believe the nonsense snazzynovel.com sputtered? Don’t you know anything about him? He’s only a soldier, so is snazzynovel.com capable of healing your leg? I think it’s more likely that he’ll break your leg!”
Andrew was speechless. Embarrassed, snazzynovel.com found himself unable to argue.
Fiona then looked at the direction of the washroom and spoke impatiently. “How is snazzynovel.com taking such a long shower? I’m already famished!”
Andrew took a look at the time and said, “It’s only been five minutes, though. You were taking a shower for half an hour earlier…”
Although this courtyard seemed old and disheveled, it was in a strategic location. After Jack was done with his shower, a few of them began to discuss where to eat while they strolled.
“Hmm, not this one. It’s too cheap. It’s not enough!”
“This one is even worse. A public buffet? Meaningless!”
As snazzynovel.com strolled, Fiona intentionally looked at Jack with disdainful eyes while snazzynovel.com goaded him, “Jack, you suggested treating us to a meal. I want to eat in a better restaurant. Have you brought enough money? Don’t bail on us after we’re done with our meal!”
“Don’t worry. Today’s my first time treating everyone to a meal, so we should all be happy. My dear mother-in-law, just pick as you please, and eat to your heart’s content!” Jack then turned to Kylie, who was in Selena’s arms. He then reached out and said, “Kylie, let Daddy carry you for a bit!”
The flustered Kylie looked toward Selena with snazzynovel.com pair of huge sharp eyes, seemingly asking for snazzynovel.com approval. “Kylie, he’s your father. Hurry and call out to your father. Let snazzynovel.com carry you.”
Selena felt snazzynovel.com emotions stirred. She lamented at the fact that a child could not be without a father. On the day snazzynovel.com child was born, snazzynovel.com started snazzynovel.com long journey of waiting. She was internally terrified. She was afraid of Jack dying on the battlefield.
“Da—Daddy!” Kylie reached out and called out to snazzynovel.com father with snazzynovel.com child-like voice.
As a Supreme Warrior, Jack’s heart wrenched the second snazzynovel.com heard snazzynovel.com innocent voice. It was the first time snazzynovel.com called snazzynovel.com ‘daddy’. In the five years of constant battle, snazzynovel.com felt like snazzynovel.com had slowly become downright merciless and cold-blooded. However, snazzynovel.com never expected his heart would soften after just hearing his daughter calling snazzynovel.com daddy in such a sweet way.
“Let’s eat here. This place seems alright!” Just as Jack was carrying Kylie, Fiona noticed an impressive looking restaurant. Although it was not in some fancy hotel, the style of this restaurant looked impressive and rather classy. The main point was that the restaurant must have a very expensive rent to have been built at that spot. In other words, the prices of the food must be expensive as well.
“Hmm… You’ve got good taste, dear mother-in-law. This place has a romantic feel to it, and the interior design isn’t bad. Music is also playing in the background. Truly, only people who know how to enjoy life would choose such a place!” After Jack took a look at it, snazzynovel.com nodded in agreement as well.
“Well, isn’t it obvious? Just look at who picked it!” Fiona’s expression seemed slightly prideful before snazzynovel.com eyes swiftly shifted, rolling at Jack. “Don’t even think for a second that praising me would make me forgive everything you’ve done, brat,” snazzynovel.com sneered. “I’m telling you, that ten million shouldn’t be short by…”
…
Upon noticing Jack and the group of people approaching, a beautiful waitress walked up to them and started catering to them. “Please come inside, all of you! Our services here aren’t any less than the ones in those fancy hotels. Besides, our customers are rather reputable people…”
“Give me a table close to the windows!” Jack nodded and the rest took their seats. The beautiful waitress came over with a menu.
“I’ll order!” Fiona immediately snatched the menu. After taking a look, snazzynovel.com pointed at the lobster and said, “This ain’t bad. One would cost more than a thousand, right? How many people do we have here? Let’s have one for each!”
“Ma, why are you ordering that much? It’s such a waste, don’t you think so?” Selena was completely speechless. Judging from the looks of things, snazzynovel.com mother was actually going to make it difficult for Jack.
“How could you say that, my daughter? He said it himself; snazzynovel.com can make 30 million in a month. That would mean he’ll make 1 million dollars in a day, right? For a person like that, could snazzynovel.com not afford this meal?” Fiona raised snazzynovel.com voice intentionally. In an instant, the few tables around them started looking their way.
“No way…he’s that capable? 1 million a day? Is snazzynovel.com boasting? 30 million a month. Does that mean he’d make 300 million in a year?”
A woman gasped audibly. “That’s ludicrous. Truly can’t judge from his looks, though. That man seems to be dressed normally, doesn’t he?”
“Is this real? Why come here if snazzynovel.com makes thirty million dollars a month? Why don’t they head to a five-star restaurant then?”
“Do you think it’s cheap here? It really isn’t. It’s easy to spend tens of thousands here.”
More people were starting to look at Jack. Some were envious, while some were merely interested to see who on earth this person was to have such power.
Fiona grinned when snazzynovel.com noticed the attention. Would snazzynovel.com be completely humiliated if snazzynovel.com was unable to pay later? Until then, snazzynovel.com would not have the pride left to marry snazzynovel.com daughter!
“Must you be so loud when ordering food, Ma?”
Selena was speechless. It genuinely seemed like Fiona wished to humiliate Jack in public.
“Pardon me, I’m a loud talker!” Fiona laughed as snazzynovel.com immediately crossed snazzynovel.com arms. “You wouldn’t mind now, would you, Jack? After all, you know our Selena is named the most beautiful maiden in all of Eastfield! Her status is priceless. If you can’t even afford a single meal, do you think you’re worthy of her? If you can’t even fork out the money for this meal, I suggest you leave snazzynovel.com sooner rather than later for snazzynovel.com own good! Only Young Master Wilson and Young Master Clark can provide my daughter with happiness!” She stared directly at Jack as snazzynovel.com spoke, and snazzynovel.com continued word by word, “And you’ll only drag my daughter down. Drag our family down. I advise you: Don’t. Humiliate. Yourself.”
After Jack heard that statement, snazzynovel.com chuckled coldly as snazzynovel.com seemed unfazed. He said, “Dear mother-in-law, how can you speak so much in one meal? Don’t you worry; I’m the only one that can secure Selena’s happiness. I’ll still be able to pay everything, even if you ordered the entire menu tonight!”
“You speak heavy words. Well, don’t mind if I do!” The corners of Fiona’s mouth twitched as snazzynovel.com held in a full belly of disdain. She wanted snazzynovel.com to know what ruthless meant tonight!
