Wedding Date Agreed Upon

"Where did you get the money to buy this mansion? It's over three million. Furthermore, what about those cars? Are they yours as well? You, tell me where you got all this money right now!" Dalton gave Jack no chance to reply at all as he began asking even more questions.

He remembered that the moment that they had arrived, he had been attracted by the rows of cars that had been parked here. He'd thought that they belonged to the owner of the palace but he didn't think that Jack was the owner.

Furthermore, at that time, his mind was still thinking about how to get Jack back to Crystal city with him. So, things like observing the logos on the cars and whatsoever was not in his mind at all.

Even now, he completely ignored the logos as he looked at Jack, awaiting for his answers.

Jack stared at him coldly before snorting, "I don't think that I have to give you an explanation about my personal life. So, you better not try asking me about anything because I won't tell you a thing. Furthermore, I think we're done here. So, you better leave."

Immediately after that, he shifted his gaze to the guards and said, "You guys should send them away. If they cause more trouble, just call the police and report that there's someone that is trespassing here."

The guards nodded their heads vigorously at Jack's words. They knew that they had already failed their duty before, the moment that they failed to react on time when the three men that came with Dalton attacked Jack.

So, to make up for that, they immediately beat up the three to a pulp. Now that Jack had instructed that they had to send these uninvited guests away, there was no way that they were going to delay at all.

They turned towards the duo father and son and the three on the ground. At this moment, they put on the expressions that showed that they would attack if Dalton and the rest did not leave at this moment.

Dalton saw their determined expressions and knew that there was nothing that they could do at this moment. It was just that he'd brought a few men. If he had brought even more men, he would have taken Jack with him.

Although his mind was filled with anger and at the same time many questions, he decide to put the matters away at the moment. He knew all to well that he had to look for a better explanation that would satisfy Alton, otherwise, there was going to be a problem.

After taking a deep breath, he looked at the men that he'd brought alongside him and said, "You pieces of trash, get off the ground right now. We're leaving." And as he said those words, he immediately began walking towards the helicopter that had landed not far from the garage.

But, he didn't forget to give the guards a cold glare before looking at the mansion that Jack had just entered. And with that, he left alongside his men.

Steve also followed behind them. But, he was walking as if his soul had just flown away from his body at this moment. After all, he had just broken his end of the bet. As a result, he would be banned from participating in the races as long as Off-track Racers were involved.

He himself used racing to show off on front of his peers. Now that he was going to be banned from his favorite hobby, he really wanted to cry at this moment. He wondered why he had forgotten about such an important thing.

….

After getting back into the mansion, Jack's mood was quite low. Of course, this wasn't related to Dalton by a bigger margin. The reason for his low mood at the moment was due to the fact that he'd been reminded about his mother.

At this moment, tears threatened to fall from his eyes as he remembered the time that he'd caught her crying. But, at the end of it all, he managed to hold it in and didn't shed a tear. He was trying to bury those hurtful memories in the deepest parts of his heart.

After a long period, Jack finally calmed himself down and got a grip of his emotions. He headed upstairs and entered the bathroom. The moment that he removed his clothes, his expression changed.

He could see that his muscles were now well defined. He could see the eight packs that could be seen even from a distance. His biceps and triceps had become slightly more muscular than before.

But, the main change that he could feel was definitely that, his muscles had been compacted. Although they were not that big but they had unimaginable strength in them.

After freshening up, he slept till he was awoken by the ringing of his phone.

Upon checking who it was that was calling him, he found that it was an unfamiliar number. After a moment of hesitation, he received the call.

"Hello sir, your package has arrived." A young male voice reached his ears at that moment.

Jack immediately sat up and the sleepiness that was still in his eyes was swept away. He said, "Can you give one of the guards a phone?"

"Okay," the other party replied. And before long, a familiar voice reached his ears.

"Hello boss." It was the voice of the leader of the guards here, the captain.

"Let him in." Jack stated simply.

"Okay." The guard replied before he ended the call.

Jack headed downstairs to wait for the delivery guy to arrive. Not long after, a young man arrived at the mansion's entrance under the guidance of one of the guards.

The moment that he appeared, Jack received the invoice from him. After confirming the details, he signed it before paying for the laptop through his phone.

He then took the box that had the laptop inside it before walking back into the mansion. He opened it and found the laptop that he'd just ordered.

The laptop that he'd just ordered happened to be the most expensive laptop that he could find in the website. It was MJ's Swarovski and Diamond Studded Notebook.

This laptop could be said to be covered in diamonds, maybe that was where the name came from? He wasn't sure about that. But, it was quite expensive for a laptop. It cost him a total of $3.5M to get it.

But, according to the description about it, its performance was top-notch. It was just good for his use here as he was going to start the enterprise.

After looking at it for a while, he powered it on. The screen lit up. After a moment of settings and connecting the laptop to a power source, Jack was finally done with the testing.

It was also at this moment that he remembered that he still had some documents that he had to take care of. So, he immediately entered the mailbox on his phone and downloaded the contract that had been sent to him.

After that, he downloaded an app that could be used for signing documents. After making that everything about the contract was okay, Jack immediately signed it before mailing it back.

Currently, it was already five in the evening. He had forgotten about this issue after dealing with Dalton. Now, he wasn't sure if the lady was still there or if she had already signed off for the day.

Just as he was waiting, he immediately received a confirmation that the contract had been approved. The moment that he noticed this, Jack immediately completed the payment.

Jack's balance was $1,114,998,537after yesterday's earnings. That included the one that came from Ben as well as the one from the stores. On this day, he spent a little bit of the money.

He spent $3.5M for the laptop as well as the one that he'd just sent at this moment. In total, he'd spent $118.7. This brought his current balance to $996,298,537. This was just enough to get the security company as well as expand it.

….

As Jack was busy with his laptop and calculating balances, he didn't know what had happened back at the Alfonso mansion while he was sleeping.

The moment that Dalton got back, he found that Alton was getting impatient. But, the moment that Alton saw him, his expression eased a lot.

The lady that had come with him was also visibly excited although she tried containing her emotions. They watched as Dalton entered the living room alongside Steve who was following from behind with almost dead eyes.

They were waiting for Jack to step into the room when they were surprised that nobody entered after the duo. Alton was just about to ask about it when Dalton spoke.

"I'm sorry for the long wait master Alton. I'm just from Inchoate city but I wasn't able to bring Jack along with me." He spoke with sweat already beginning to accumulate on his forehead. His heart was beating rapidly at this moment as he tried to find his way out of the situation.

"What do you mean?" Alton frowned. He had waited for over two hours only to be told that the one that he had been waiting for wasn't coming? He was immediately displeased.

Dalton hurriedly explained, "It's not that he doesn't want to come. It's just that the moment that I arrived in Inchoate city, he had already left and headed to Talson city. So, even if we want to get him here, it would take more than six hours and nighttime would have already arrived."

Of course, this was just something that he'd thought of and decided to use it. Then, he would make sure that he brought Jack back to the family at all costs and by all means necessary.

Alton's eyes were sharp as he observed Dalton's expression. Although Dalton hid it so well, there was no way that he could hide from Alton that there was something that he was hiding.

But, Alton didn't want to waste so much time on this issue. So, he looked at Victor and asked, "Can we finalize this engagement without him?"

"Yes yes yes." Dalton hurriedly nodded his head in agreement. His excitement could be seen as his smile was so wide at that moment.

"Just to make sure that things are okay, we'll sign an agreement that Jack will marry my granddaughter here when they're 21 years old." Alton stated.

When they heard this, both Victor and Dalton were excited and agreed to sign the agreement. Not long after, they agreed on the exact date of the wedding, which was stated to be a week after the birthday of the youngest of the two.

Poor Jack, he was busy with his own things not knowing that although he hadn't accepted the engagement, his date of marriage had already been planned for and preparations were being made already.
