Chapter 61 Genting Restaurant
Chapter 61 Genting Restaurant
Jack’s determination and fearlessness caused Katherine to be flustered. This gave her the feeling that
her punch had landed in emptiness and was totally ineffective.
All the murmurs and gossips were cast upon her and camera flashes started to engulf her. Jack was
long gone by the time she came to her senses.
When the main doors of the sales office of Dragon Garden opened, the home buyers poured into the
sales office and the scene became a sea of activities.
She was the only one that remained standing dazed like an insignificant clown.
…
Jack took a taxi, left Dragon Garden, and headed towards Genting restaurant. The table manners of
the Parry family disgusted him. Katherine’s emergence today caused him to be exasperated. He
stopped loving Katherine when she took the remaining money he needed to save his mother.
If it wasn’t for the timely arrival of Mr. Ward, his mother would have died long ago. This resulted in him
not having the slightest attachment for Katherine and the Parry Family! The only thing he could do was
to forget about the last three years. It was impossible to expect him to maintain any form of ties with
Katherine and the Parry family! He wiped his face and suppressed his depression.
Jack looked outside the window and cracked his fingers and realized why some people liked to smoke
a cigarette in such a situation.
In his trance, Amber’s image suddenly emerged in his mind. He smiled gently and perhaps this was his
last chance at love in this life. At least when he was going through hardships and feeling tired, she
would encourage him to rest. She was unlike Katherine who made him slog and work tirelessly with
unending demands.
“I’m sure that she doesn’t like the smell of cigarette smoke.” Jack shook his head and looked to the
front.
He arrived at Genting Restaurant.
Situated at the top of the highest building in the city, it was as if Genting Restaurant was perched on
top of a mountain overlooking all of mankind. The high prices made it inaccessible to most consumers.
The price of over a hundred thousand yuan was reasonable to be able to dine among the clouds. At
least that was how Jack felt about it.
When he took the lift and arrived at the top level where Genting Restaurant was, he was greeted by
melodious piano music. The luxurious and elegant decoration could not be faulted. The large panel
windows all around enabled a commanding view of the surrounding sky. The clouds were drifting by
outside the window.
Jack was led by the waiter towards a window seat where Amber was already waiting for him.
But Amber was restless and filled with worry.
“Amber, what are you worried about?” Jack smiled.
Amber was startled and raised her head and looked happily at Jack, “Oh thank heavens, you’re finally
here. I was really worried that she’ll do something to you.”
Jack smiled gently, “We no longer have anything to do with each other. How can she do anything to
me?"
"I was afraid that she would cause a scene and affect your company’s reputation.” Amber expressed
her worries.
Jack signaled to the waiter to bring the menu over for Amber to order the dishes.
At the same time, he smiled at her, “Relax, I’ve settled it. But I can’t help it if she wanted to make a fool
of herself.”
Amber was doubtful but she didn’t continue to question him. She was only asking because she cared
about Jack and she didn’t want to ask about anything else. She was very clear about what Katherine
and the Parry family did to Jack. They totally do not deserve any compassion. Adults needed to be
responsible for the consequences of their actions.
She swiftly ordered the dishes.
“Were you surprised today?” Jack changed the topic as he didn’t want Amber to worry anymore.
Furthermore, since Amber didn’t mind his past, any mention of Katherine was unfair to Amber.
“How dare you mention it?” Amber rolled her eyes and continued, “Why didn’t you tell me when you
became the boss of DT real estate agency? Do you know that when that incident happened to you, I
was so worried about you that I couldn’t sleep? I was so worried that I rushed back here to help you.
And here you are, silently becoming the boss of DT!”
“Thanks.” Jack placed his hand onto Amber’s hand, “Thanks for being by my side at my lowest
moment.”
Amber’s beautiful cheeks became flushed. She felt the warmth of the hand and wanted to retract her
hands but realized that Jack had grasped her hand tightly and she was unable to pull free.
“Hey, what are you doing? This is a restaurant and many people can see us.”
“What’s wrong with holding my girlfriend’s hand?”
Jack raised his eyebrows, “You willing came into my embrace. Don’t you ever leave my side again!”
These words caused Amber’s face to blush and heat up.
Amber quickly changed the topic, “Oh yes, you haven’t told me how you became the boss of DT?” She
was most curious about this.
In her understanding of Jack’s family background, Jack was extremely desperate when Katherine took
the last 200 thousand yuan that he had. But when she returned to the country, not only was Jack’s
mother well into her recovery, Jack suddenly became the boss of DT Real Estate agency!
Just like magic, Jack went from being at the end of his road to soaring among the clouds. She never
expected Jack to be able to overcome his difficulties which was why she hurried back to the country to
try to use her abilities to help Jack get back on his feet.
Jack’s smile disappeared and became gloomy and retracted his hands.
Amber frowned and asked, “Did I say something wrong?”
“No.” Jack mustered a smile and explained, “Actually someone helped me and gave me a lot of money.
He even helped me save my mother. He also helped me to acquire DT after I signed the overvalued Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
contract.”
Jack paused and sighed, “Except at this moment, I don’t want to tell you too much because I am still
figuring out the large changes. I will tell you more in time to come.”
Jack was unwilling to mention about the father that he had never met. How could a man who had
abandoned his family for twenty years be regarded as a husband or father? But he was grateful for his
father for saving her mother at the critical moment. He didn’t know what happened to the Hughes family
and was suspicious of Mr. Ward who came to help him. He wondered if it was some form of transaction
with his father.
He still felt conflicted about it and that was why he didn’t want to tell Amber about it. Amber became
even more curious upon hearing what Jack said. But when he saw Jack’s expression, she nodded and
didn’t press on with the questions. She respected Jack’s privacy. She also knew that she will slowly
understand everything after spending time with Jack.
“Oh yes, didn’t you say that you have another surprise for me?” Jack looked at Amber with anticipation.
Amber’s body shivered and became flustered. After she received so many of Jack’s surprises, she was
unsure that if she were to reveal her identity to Jack. Would he regard that as a surprise?
Then… should she tell him or not?
