Chapter 141 Betrayed?
Chapter 141 Betrayed?
"You two clearly know each other. And, I never allowed anyone to come to this area. So, I don't know if you told him to come here in advance or something. That's clearly a problem on your part!" The guard didn't back down.r
Collins was left speechless for a moment before he retorted again. "How can that be my problem? Even if a person heard my plan, you were supposed to make sure that nobody was here. What were you clearing if you couldn't even make sure that someone that was hiding here was taken care of? What's more, it wasn't just one person, there were two f*cking people here!"r
The guard was also given his turn to be speechless. All the same, the two were not willing to give up on blaming each other.r
Seeing this scene, the guy with glasses on was stunned. He looked at the guard that was supposed to be in charge of this area and shouted angrily, "What the hell are you doing here? Are you a guard or a hooligan? You are cooperating in making sure that our customers are harassed?"r
The guard looked at him and retorted, "How can you say that I'm a hooligan? I was clearly serving one of our customers. In the end, he gave me a tip of $50,000 for my good work."r
Jack: "…"r
Glasses: "…"r
Collins: "…."r
Guards : "…."r
None of them could believe how shameless this guy could actually be. He could change the crime to a responsibility. What's more stunning was his ability to shift the blame to others.r
"Serving customers? Serving customers your head! Does someone like him deserve to be called a customer here? That's your accomplice in crime!" Glasses shouted.r
His breathing had already gotten irregular due to the anger. He couldn't believe that he had actually had such a subordinate all along.r
"If he's a hooligan, then the other seven or eight are not. After all, I was serving almost ten customers. If I dared to go against the customers wishes, were you going not to punish me? You would obviously care nonetheless and say that the customers have to be given the priority!" The guard continued.r
Glasses: "Priority in harassing other customers? You are clearly out of your mind!"r
Guard: "There were more customers on one side. I favored the side that profits the resort the most. Losing a single customer to retain ten is a good deal."r
Glasses: "You want to retain the ten customers and chase away hundreds by ruining the reputation of the resort?"r
Jack: "…"r
Looking at the two sides that were arguing nonstop, Jack got impatient. Since they were busy, he too decided to get busy.r
He took his phone and sent a text to Denali. 'Take care of the footage.' And immediately after he sent the text, he deleted it from the sent messages.r
He had asked Denali to take care of the footage. Collins and his goons had completely forgotten that there were actually cameras here. It was just that nobody was observing them at this time.r
Nobody had expected that there would be an incident in this part of the resort. Furthermore, the playground was already closed. So, there was no way that there was supposed to be a person here.r
When he was done, he looked at Collins who seemed to be in a daze as he looked at the two who were still arguing.r
Jack squatted next to him before he snapped his fingers in front of his face. The snap of the fingers immediately brought Collins to the reality. It was also at this moment that he remembered that he was in pain and began rolling on the floor.r
Seeing this, Jack decided that he had to get this done as fast as he could. He still has to deal with the issue with Brenda before looking into the matter concerning his mother through his second uncle.r
Clap! Clap!r
Jack's clapping attracted the attention of the two and the other guards. Seeing that they were all looking at him, Jack spoke. "Look at your behavior. You are speaking too much with a partner in crime instead of detaining him and calling the police over."r
"Huh?" Glasses was confused for a moment before remembering something. He looked at the guards who were still standing there, not sure on what they were supposed to do.r
"Oh, I'm a senior and I have subordinates." He muttered loudly. Ignoring the strange gazes that he received, Glasses said, "Grab the three criminals and take them to the security department before calling the police to come over and take them away!"r
Guards: ('???')r
Three criminals? Weren't there supposed to be two? The guards questioned themselves.r
Seeing the gazes that were filled with confusion looking at him, glasses frowned again. But thinking about what he had just said added with Jack's cold gaze on him, glasses quickly corrected himself. "Ahem! I meant the two criminals."r
The guards took action quickly this time and took away Collins who was on the ground. The other guard tried resisting but he was no match for the almost a dozen guards. They easily beat him up with the batons and subdued him before carrying him away like a log of wood.r
"Can you come with us so that we can wait for the police to come and take care of them case?" Glasses looked at Jack and asked politely.r
"Just look at the footage first. If there's a problem with it, you can come and look for me. I still have other things to do for now. So, I'm off." Jack shook his head and left.r
Glasses looked blankly at the direction that Jack had left for a moment before he followed the guards back to the security department.r
…. r
After getting back to the room, he found that Denali was still busy with the laptop. Additionally, there were three girls present in the room. They were clearly waiting for him to come back.r
"Jack, you are back." Celine got onto her feet when she saw that Jack had returned. The others also got onto their feet to welcome him.r
"Yeah. That guy has been taken by the security department of the resort. The police should be having a visitor tonight." Jack stated before he took a seat on one of the sofas.r
Wendy and Angy thanked Jack for helping Celine. Then, the girls and Jack chatted for a few minutes, asking Jack about the details of what had happened. Jack didn't hide from them and told them what had actually happened there.r
After that, the girls decided that they would give the police a statement on what had happened. Although it was true that Collin's family was bigger than theirs, it was also true that it couldn't compare with the three of them as long as they took action together.r
Since they had decided, Jack saw no reason to stop them. He was clearly not done punishing Collins. If his family was the pillar that he was relying on to bully others, Jack would as well make sure that it fell completely.r
After a while, Jack asked the girls to go and sleep. After all, it was already midnight. They had been busy during the day and it wasn't good that they stayed awake all this time.r
After they left, Jack looked at Denali and asked, "Have you taken care of the footage?"r
"Yes, master. I have completely edited the footage and removed the parts that show your face. I have filled the blanks with the scenes that show your back." Denali nodded and responded.r
Jack nodded in satisfaction. This was one of the good things that he liked about Denali. She could understand his meaning fast. Well, that was other than Celine's incident.r
Now, Denali focused on the previous matter, that was handling the issue concerning Brenda. Jack instructed her to find all the information about those that Marion had spoken to before.r
Although he would have wanted her to investigate about Marion and Brenda's communication information as well as the way that they spent their money during this year and the past one, he still remembered that Denali was also a human and she had to rest.r
So, after she found all the data on Marion, Jack asked her to rest and continue doing things the following day. After all, although it was true that she could stay awake through the night due to her current strength, he thought that it wasn't worth it.r
It was good enough to sleep late and wake up early. Other than that, there was no way that Jack was going to allow it.r
The following morning, the news about the playground area being sealed was spread to all those present in the resort facilities. There were still two other playgrounds so, the children could still play.r
Now that the mood for the vacation had already been ruined by the chain of incidents that had happened the previous day, Jack and the girls decided to leave.r
The girls told the other girls that were in the group about what had happened the previous night. After that, Celine, Wendy, Angy and Jack went to the star hospital to pay Johnathan a visit.r
Seeing them, Johnathan smiled and asked, "You guys missed me already?" Now, Johnathan only needed to rest before he would be back to the previous condition before the attack. His recovery speed was amazing that it even surprised Jack.r
In any case, Johnathan hadn't suffered grievous wounds. It was just that the poison in his body had reduced the speed of blood clotting. So, he ended up losing a lot of blood from the wounds and that was why he fainted. Otherwise, he would have been okay.r
"Who's missing you?" Jack snorted in response. As for the girls, they clearly betrayed him.r
"Yes, we missed you Johnathan."r
Jack: "???"r
Aren't we a team? Jack couldn't help but ask himself that question.r
On the other hand, Johnathan gave Jack a smile when he saw his darkened face. Seeing that Johnathan was getting something to make fun of him, Jack simply turned his head to the side and snorted again.r
The girls giggled when they saw this scene. All the same, the group chatted for a few minutes before Jack said that they were leaving Volant city.r
"You can come and stay with me till you recover. After that, you can go back to doing your business, lest your enemies come charging at me, thinking that I'm you." Jack offered.r
Johnathan thought for a while before agreeing to the offer. If Jack could deal with spider, then it was true that he could take care of him. What's more, with Jack present, it was more likely that his enemies would go after him, giving him (Johnathan) a break.r
