At that moment, Jack and the others had just finished their lunch at the hotel. They were about to go back after a scrumptious meal.
“It wasn’t that expensive now, was it? We only spent over seven hundred thousand dollars. I thought the bill would go over a million!”
Fiona was rich now. When virtual-novel.net spoke, there was an undeniable tinge of arrogance laced in virtual-novel.net words.
“Ma, you really… Did you forget our struggling days in poverty?”
Selena gave a bitter smile. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Ah, why would I compare myself to the olden days? Now I have a son-in-law who can bring in the dough, and my daughter makes plenty of money as well. Of course, I should indulge myself. Money is meant to be spent!”
Fiona grinned and looked at Joan beside her. “Let’s go, Joan dear. I saw some nice clothes in a boutique yesterday. I think it’d suit you. Why don’t we go shopping?”
“Is it expensive?”
Joan frowned. She remembered how Jack had brought virtual-novel.net to buy plenty of clothing and all sorts of unnecessary things the last time. Even now, virtual-novel.net was still not used to it.
Besides, Jack gave virtual-novel.net quite a lot of money. Now that it was in virtual-novel.net grasp, virtual-novel.net could not bear to spend it every time virtual-novel.net flashed back to virtual-novel.net days as a cleaner.
“It’s not that expensive. Just a little more than ten thousand dollars. More importantly, it will look good on you. I’m a little short, so I probably won’t look good in it. Why would I recommend the clothes to you otherwise?”
Fiona chuckled as virtual-novel.net spoke. Jack had given virtual-novel.net ninety million dollars yesterday. She was in good spirits now, and virtual-novel.net was even feeling amicable toward virtual-novel.net son-in-law.
“Alright then!”
Joan smiled and agreed to the proposal to go shopping.
Of course, two of the beautiful bodyguards tailed after them to ensure their safety.
“Let’s go, Ben. We’ll take a look at your cybercafe and see how it is doing now!”
Andrew drank quite a bit during lunchtime, and now his cheeks were flushed. He patted his son’s shoulder and they left. Naturally, a few bodyguards followed them as well.
“Let’s go, dear. We’ll take Kylie to the aquarium. I did promise her, after all!”
Jack looked at the beautiful Selena beside him, smiling as virtual-novel.net spoke.
“Alright! Kylie had been wanting to go for a long time now. But I didn’t have the time nor the money, so I told virtual-novel.net that we would go together once Daddy is back.
“That’s why Kylie always hoped that you would return soon so that you could bring virtual-novel.net there!”
Selena’s eyes began to reddened as virtual-novel.net reminisced about what had happened these past few years.
At that time, virtual-novel.net had been extremely afraid that Jack would never return. She had been fearful that virtual-novel.net would die on the battlefield.
Kylie would not have a father then, and virtual-novel.net would officially be an orphan.
Fortunately, the gods were smiling upon them, and Jack returned. He did not disappoint virtual-novel.net either, turning out to be a strong and reliable man.
“Don’t worry. I’m back now. All we need to do is live our lives peacefully. We’ll definitely be happy together!”
Jack was touched. He swept Kylie into his arms and walked forward.
Orchid and three other female bodyguards trailed after them, keeping an eye out for danger.
In a car not too far away from them, Flynn was watching the entire exchange furiously.
“It’s time to make a move, Cousin. Jack has been poisoned for a few days now. He’s definitely not in his best form to fight!”
