The Supreme Warrior No. 1
Chapter 31 - 40


Chapter 31


Tanya waved her hand as she roared. One by one, the bodyguards brought benches and began to destroy the place.


"Miss Tanya, no, please don't. This is Wilson's family business. Please give us some mercy, Miss Tanya!" The restaurant manager no longer dared to be arrogant when facing the people from the Drake Family. He pleaded with a sad face, hoping they would stop for the Wilson family.


"Wilson's family! Hah, I don't care whose family business this is. You're just acting like this if I'm not around. If I catch you guys acting like this in front of me, it's only natural for me to destroy your place when I'm angry!" Tanya crossed her arms in front of her chest. He stood up proudly as he underestimated them.


Although there were many thugs from the Wilson family, they all lowered their heads. None of them dared to make a sound. They know the strength of the Drake family. The Wilson family would not dare offend the Drake family! However, what astonished them was Tanya interfering in the affairs of others. What does this have to do with him!?


"Miss Tanya, thank you very much. Are you saying that we don't have to pay?" Upon seeing the situation, Fiona immediately stepped forward and asked. He could feel that hatred.


"Of course, you don't have to pay a dime, damn it. I can't stand people like this who bully the weak!" Tanya looked at the manager and said, "Say, do they still have to pay? If they have to pay, I will burn this whole place down!"


The manager was silent. "No, no. They can take the remaining 18 bottles of wine. They don't even have to pay for their food early. Miss Tanya, our boss and Ms. Taylor actually know each other. He's just kidding. They don't have to pay to eat them. Our boss already said that it was free. In regards to that, the manager said with a depressed face, "This, this is all a misunderstanding!"


The manager's heart ached when he saw all the broken tables and shelves. What the hell just happened?


"Md. Taylor's? You're Selena Taylor, right? You are a very beautiful woman. I've heard a lot about you, but this is the first time I've seen you!" Tanya looked at Selena and only then did she say to her guard, "Stop now, that's enough!"


After she finished speaking, she spoke to Selena again, "Miss Selena, is this really a misunderstanding?"


Selena smiled bitterly. "You can call it that. Thank you very much for your help, Miss Tanya. I hear you like fighting injustice and people who are very helpful. This is the first time I've seen you today. Thank you very much for your kindness!"


"Misunderstanding, how can this be a misunderstanding? These people say that we can't leave if we don't pay. Also, they insist that we have to pay over 4 million dollars!" Asking the waiter to pack the wine on the table, Fiona spoke up, "Miss Tanya, I really owe you this time around, she said, but what if they come looking for us if we leave without paying?"


"This is my card, aunt. Save it and call me whenever you need help! If they bother you and ask you to pay again, I won't let this shop survive!" Tanya smiled, took out a business card, and handed it to Fiona.


"Ah, you're so nice." Fiona was so excited. He took the card and smiled. "Thank you very much, Miss Tanya!"


"All right, you can go now. They wouldn't dare to do anything!" Tanya looked at Jack who was standing at the side with a deep look. Then, he turned around and spoke to Selena. "Miss Selena, if you need help in the future, call me!"


Jack frowned as he thought hard. Tanya came in time; was it really a coincidence?


However, it did not matter whether it was a coincidence or not. At least he helped them.


He stepped forward and extended his hand. "Miss Tanya, thank you very much for your help. My name is Jack White. I'll think of us as acquaintances. If the Drake family needs help in the future, please feel free to contact me!"


Chapter 32


"Cannot be. This guy wants to shake Miss Tanya's hand? Isn't he overconfident?"


"That's right. Does she even know who Miss Tanya is? He's the living daughter-in-law and the reason why the Taylor family kicked his wife's family out of the house. Is a person like him in a position to shake Miss? Tania's hand?" The few thugs standing behind the restaurant started to secretly gossip.


Ordinary people would not hear them because their voices were very soft. However, they do not realize that Jack has clearly heard everything they have to say. Jack did not notice them. Smiling, he continued to stare at Miss Tanya who was standing in front of him.


"Together! Nice to meet you, I'm Tanya Drake! I heard you are also from the army, right? I'm so admiring people like you. I appreciate your contribution to our country! If it wasn't for someone like you, we wouldn't have won this time!" Miss Tanya reached out her hand and shook Jack's hand in front of the crowd.


It seems that Ms. Tanya does not often shake hands with the opposite sex. He looked a little embarrassed and embarrassed when he did.


"To protect our country is what we, the people of Daxia, must do!" Jack laughed and said, "I didn't expect Miss Tanya to be such a kind and helpful person! We are now acquaintances. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need help!"


Selena thought for a moment and walked over to the manager. Then, he said in a soft voice, "Tell Young Master Wilson that he gave nothing away for free. We don't pay because Miss Tanya hates your behavior. Do you understand?"


The manager's lips twitched and he smiled awkwardly. "Of course, of course, this is all for Miss Tanya's sake!"


"I'm glad you know that so I don't owe him anything!" Selena said coldly, feeling relieved.


Earlier when they were upstairs, he promised Michael he would take coffee and hang out with him because he had no other choice and could only say yes. Although he knew that he might be in danger and it would be difficult for him to escape, there was nothing he could do about it. He can only bite a bullet and do it for the sake of his family and Kylie's safety. He could only pray that Michael would take him for coffee. She did not expect Tanya, who was passing by for dinner, to take the initiative to help them. In the end, they don't have to pay. Thus, he could take back what he had promised before and owe Michael nothing more. The most important thing was that Tanya was the one who helped them so that Michael would not dare to disturb them afterwards.


"Miss Tanya, thank you very much for your help. I'll definitely repay your kindness if there's a chance in the future!" Selena turned around and said to Tanya, "Then we will move first!"


"Well, be careful and goodbye!"


Chapter 33


In the end, Miss Tanya watched Jack and the others leave.


"You better learn your lesson. I'll let you go for what happened today. If you continue to bother them for trouble today, I will end you guys. I don't care if you're part of the Wilson family. !" After Jack and the others left, Tanya gave them a warning before she and her men left.


"Ask Drake is so annoying! Why didn't he come sooner or later instead of on time? He could come even just a few minutes later or wait until Selena and the others left. Things won't happen like that. messy then!" Seeing the damage done, they must have suffered a huge loss. The manager was angry. He had no idea that at the time, Michael was ecstatic in the private room.


"That's great, Young Master Wilson. Your method really works! Selena's face turned pale when she heard 4,000,000 dollars. Jack doesn't have that kind of money. I bet he doesn't even have 400,000 dollars! Selena had no other choice. . Once I threatened her with her daughter and her parents, she could only listen to me. He promised me that he would find an excuse to go on a coffee date with me!" Michael was excited. He immediately called Ivan to tell him his victory.


"Happy Young Master Wilson!" Ivan, who was across the phone, sneered. "Young Master Wilson, just do what I say. Quietly add some 'ingredients' to the coffee and by then, you will have it under your feet. He might even become more proactive!"


"Yes, that's good. Selena this mother is worried about losing face and will not tell anyone else about this. I know him well. If he told others about it, not only would he be humiliated, he would be a disgrace to his parents and the Taylor family!" Michael laughed out loud. He's been waiting too long. He would finally get the cold goddess who always ignored him. Thinking of Selena's near-perfect face and body, as well as her scent, Michael is almost nosebleed.


However, thinking that this might be his only chance, his face darkened. "Young Master Taylor, your methods will work. However, knowing Selena's character, she won't tell anyone else about it, but it's impossible to ask her out on a second date!" After saying that, Michael was a little angry. "I plan to marry her in the future. If that was the case, I would have had beautiful women all my life. However, if what I mentioned earlier happened, I could only feel it once. I won I didn't have a chance to do it again. I can't take it!"


Ivan was silent for a while before saying, "Young Master Wilson, I always thought that you were just playing around with Selena. That you'll just throw it away after getting it, just like the other girls. I didn't' I didn't expect you to be so serious to her!"


"Of course I'm serious about him. Selena is the most beautiful and gentle woman I have ever met. She's the prettiest woman in Eastfield. I think only the second daughter of the Drake family can compete with her. Even so, Miss Tanya is not as attractive as Selena. I like grown women like her!" Michael sighed as he spoke. She'll get Selena, but feel sorry for her at the same time. It was because she knew Selena would hate him and refuse to marry him.


After thinking for a moment, Ivan on the other end spoke up. "If you want to play with him a little longer, it's certainly not impossible!"


Chapter 34


"Thank you?" Michael's eyes brightened after hearing that. His heart was filled with joy.


He thought that he would only have one chance. Even though it was only once, it was much better than not being able to obtain this goddess for life. Previously, she had even wished there were no men in Selena's family because she would be a widow if Jack died. Then sooner or later, he would be moved by her efforts and agree to be with her. He had not expected Jack, who was a soldier, to come back alive. From then on, she felt the possibility of being together with Selena was too slim. Therefore, when Ivan told him his method, he agreed without much thought. After all, he had been waiting for that day for so many years.


"Of course it's real but Young Master Wilson, about the advantages of the project we're working on


in..." Ivan smiled coldly. He wanted to make a profit for the Taylor family business to flourish. He will be a major contributor if the Taylor family makes money. At that time, he could secure his position and no one could take it. His right to be the successor of the Master. He doesn't care about the trauma Selena will experience. The woman had put herself through all that misery.


Old Master Taylor thought highly of Selena. Many people from the Taylor family felt that Selena had a chance to get a share of the Taylor family business. Who knew that he would give up on himself. He has come and its consequences, which gives him a great opportunity.


"Don't worry. In terms of profit, I will give you another 10 points. In this case, your profits will double. You can rest assured because there won't be a good price out there!" Michael laughed and said, "Young Master Taylor, please quickly tell me what I can do. I can't wait anymore. My lady may already be home by now. He might send me a message and ask me to pick him up in the near future! "


"The method is very easy. If you want it for the long term, you need to have something you can hold onto it. Didn't you take her to the hotel? Why not use your phone or something to record some video? You can use it to threaten him in the future! If she refuses to date you afterwards, you can threaten to upload her videos to the internet. Do you think Selena would dare to reject you?" Ivan smiled. "In that case, wouldn't Young Master Wilson have it all to yourself? Moreover, he had no choice but to be ready to help you. Jack may not even realize he's being betrayed!"


"It's exciting and exciting!" Michael laughed loudly. "Alright then, I'll stop bothering you now. I should get dressed and date early. Every minute is precious!" Excited, Michael hung up the phone. In a private room, he twisted his plump body and did poses he thought were cool. Then, he happily walked down.


However, when he came down, he was stunned by the sight before him. "What's going on? Who ruined our shop? Does that person have a death wish?" Michael roaring. She's upset.


"Young Master Wilson, I'll report this matter to you, but you're already down. Ah, bad luck!" Wearing a long face, the manager slapped his thigh and sat on the bench.


Chapter 35


"There are so many of you and none of you have managed to stop them? No one fought back? Did you just sit and watch them destroy the place?" Seeing his men standing there, Michael was furious. "Did I hire you for nothing?"


"Young Master Wilson, it's not that we didn't fight or stop them, it's because we didn't dare to fight!" The manager doesn't know if to laugh or cry. "Not Jack did this. That's Miss Tanya Drake's men."


"Ask Drake?" Michael gulped when he heard that name. "That girl. Why did he come here and destroy our place?"


"Ah, she passed our restaurant, thought it looked good, and wanted to go in for a meal. After learning what happened, he defended them and said we should not blackmail them. After that, he ruined the place! the important thing is he let Jack and the others go without paying them. He also warned us not to bother them anymore!" The manager sighed. "In the end, Jack and Miss Taylor owe Tanya a favor. Before Miss Taylor left, she wanted me to tell you that you were not the reason they didn't have to pay because Miss Tanya let them miss the bill. So...”


"Damn!" Michael angrily stomped his feet. What does Selena mean by that? That's obvious. He told her to say goodbye to tonight's date. "I lost what I just got!"


Raging, Michael sat on the floor. He is not at peace. How fortunate. She almost succeeded but ended up meeting the nosy Miss Tanya.



At that moment, Jack and the others were already on their way home.


"Thanks to Miss Tanya's kindness, we must vent our anger today!" Hand carrying a few bottles of wine, Fiona said that with a smile. Jack and Selena's hands were also preoccupied with several bottles.


"Since the last time, I heard that Miss Tanya has a good personality. There was an old man who accidentally scratched his car but given his age, he didn't let that person pay a dime."


"Not only is she kind, but Miss Tanya is also very pretty. He deserves to be rich!" Andrew was filled with strong emotions.


"You're right. He's very rich. Unlike us, we can barely eat out, but we can barely leave!" Fiona smiled, unintentionally glancing at Jack who was beside her. His expression immediately turned cold. "It's all someone's fault for acting like a rich man when he doesn't have money. If we have money, do we have to suffer this kind of treatment?"


Joan was not happy to hear that. Fiona used to make a lot of sarcastic comments before Jack came back. However, he could hold it back then. Now that Fiona was criticizing her son in front of her, she couldn't help herself anymore. She said, "My son's mother-in-law, you can't say your words like that. You can't blame Jack for this, can you? How is it possible that eating will cost four million? Obviously that guy is blackmailing us. No matter how rich we are, we shouldn't have to pay four million, right?"


"You put it in such a way as if Jack would pay if it was 400,000!" Fiona smiled in disdain.


"If they don't blackmail me, I'll pay 400,000 to eat." Jack replied calmly.


Chapter 36


“You're right. Ah, I have no other choice. Ivan already said that he would only leave me alone if I became a scavenger! Otherwise, he would have made a fuss no matter where I worked. That's why no one dared to offend him because they wanted to avoid trouble." Selena took a breath. "Now that Jack is back, our family will be better off if we both work!"


"That's right. Although it may be difficult, we won't be miserable now if we find a job!" Fiona sighed." That's why I'm thinking about Miss Drake. Didn't he give us his business card before? Since he is so kind and likes to help others, why don't we call him and see if he can help us find him? What say?"


"Mom, I don't think that's a good idea. We had no previous acquaintance with Drake's family. They helped us early and we haven't paid them. How can we trouble them again? In addition, Miss Drake gave us a business card and told us to find it if we needed help just out of courtesy. Are you really thinking of bothering him?" A little embarrassed, Selena said that while smiling bitterly.


"What's wrong with that? Sometimes you have to be thicker. Wouldn't it be better to have a decent job than to collect trash? Anyway, Kylie's going to kindergarten soon. If you don't find a decent place.work, what will happen to us? Doesn't your daughter have to learn?" Fiona immediately continued. "I think it might work. Didn't you say that you wanted to avenge Miss Drake? This is going to be a great opportunity. You can work at their company and help them make a profit by increasing their performance level.payments, right?"


"That's right!" Selena frowned and said, "It's too late now. Give me a business card and I will check tomorrow if the job is still available. Ivan wouldn't be able to do anything if I worked with the Drake family. Drake's family doesn't care about his wishes."


"Yes, yeah. That's right!" Fiona nodded. "You might get a better salary with a better job."


Shortly after, they reached their home. After storing her wine, Fiona said to Jack, "Jack, this wine is very expensive. Selena's dad likes her a lot so you better not drink in secret, okay? You can drink it if you buy it from us. It costs 20 million per bottle!"


Selena's face darkened when she heard that. "Mom, what are you talking about? He's your son-in-law and also part of our family, what's wrong with him drinking a bottle or two?"


"Who said anything about him being my son-in-law?" Fiona replied, "By the way, I won't accept it until she gives us a 10 million engagement gift on your grandfather's birthday. Only until he fulfills this promise with your grandfather and we can get back to the Taylor family, I'll accept him!"


Chapter 37


Regarding that, Fiona paused for a moment and said, "Of course she can't do it. If he can't bring us an engagement gift, my son-in-law might turn out to be Young Master Wilson or Young Master Clark!"


Jack pulls Selena back when he sees her desire to argue with Fiona. "Forget it, Selena. Mom's right. You are an amazing woman. I won't let you down on Grandpa's birthday! You are my woman and no one can take you away!"


Seeing Jack's stern gaze, Selena's anger disappeared as warmth filled her. He nodded timidly and said, I believe in you. I heard that the battlefield is very dangerous and many died, but you stayed there for five years and survived. You have to be better than the others."


Fiona's face turned sour after hearing those sweet words. She quickly reminded Selena, "Selena, I told you not to fall in love with her sweet words. She wouldn't be our daughter-in-law if she couldn't give us a 10 million engagement gift. You can't let her touch you until then, okay?" Speaking of that, Fiona looked at Kylie and said, "I didn't throw her out of the house just for Kylie's sake. We were kind enough to let her stay with us for a while!"


"Grandmother, why would you want to touch a mummy? Did he beat up a mummy? Dad, you can't beat up a mummy, okay?" Kylie, who was only four years younger, looked at Fiona with a puzzled expression. He clearly looked a little anxious!


"Kylie, that's not what it means. How could you beat up a mummy?" Jack was embarrassed when he heard what Kylie said. Immediately, he carried her and walked into the room. "Let's go, it's time for you to go to bed. Daddy's gonna tell you a story later, okay?"


"All right! Mummy, Daddy's gonna tell you a story!" Kylie screeched at Selena excitedly.


A calming smile appeared on Selena's face as she watched Kylie smile back at her. After Jack carried Kylie into the room, Selena began to say to Fiona, "Mom, you can see that Kylie must have her father by her side. Kylie really likes Jack. Blood is thicker than water. I've made up my mind; I'll stay with Jack even if he can't give us 10 million dollars!"


"My daughter, are you stupid? You have to think about Kylie's future. All other children can attend a good school, enjoy the best education, play with expensive toys, and wear good clothes. Kylie is very mature despite her young age. You want her to suffer with you all her life? I am not only doing this for your sake, but also for your son. What's the point of living with a bum like her? Will you be poor all your life? A women's time is limited and we grow old quickly. You waited for him for five years. That was five years of youth! You can't waste your youth like that anymore!"


Fiona begins to persuade Selena. “You've 25. You were 20 and immature at the time so I don't blame you. However, you should know that men have more value when they grow up compared to women. You still have assets at this time and are still young. .The rich young master is still interested in you. Do you think they'll still like you when you get older and reach 30? It's too late for you to regret it!"


"I won't regret it!" selena shouted and went straight back to the room.


Chapter 38


Not long after listening to Jack's story, Kylie falls asleep.


At that moment, Tanya had already arrived at Drake's family home. He went to see his father.


"Hows it? Did you meet a guy named Jack?" James asked Tanya excitedly as soon as he saw her.


Tanya poured half a glass of wine for herself. He twirled it around before taking a sip. Then he said, "Yes, I saw it. He is quite handsome and also manly!"


James remained silent. "Did I ask you to admire his face? I'm asking you to be friends with him and stay in touch with him. Think of it like having another friend. Although he was not as good as the God of War Lana, they were very similar.The most important thing was that he and Lana were very good friends. Being friends with him means that we are on our way to attain the skill of the God of War."


Tanya sipped her wine again. He put his glass on the table and said solemnly, "Dad, I don't understand. If we want to curry favor with this God of War from Eastfield, why don't we just lick Lana? Although Jack's status was quite good.high, he couldn't be better than the God of War, right?"


"You know nothing." James's eyes show the depth of wisdom. He picked up his own wine glass and poured it for himself. She then sat on the sofa, crossed her legs, and said, "Lana is a very cold woman. Getting close to him is no easy task. He had already given me face by receiving the War God house I gave him. Moreover, I don't 'I don't know what a woman wants! I don't know how to help her!"


After saying that, James paused for a moment before continuing, "Instead, Jack is the living son-in-law. She had no other choice but to become the living daughter-in-law to save her mother's life back then. He replaced Ivan in the army. Now, he's back and has a daughter. Although his wife had no thoughts of leaving him, the Taylor family still looked down on him!"


Tanya understood his father's intentions after hearing what he said. He nodded his head, "I know what you mean now. You mean the War God Lana doesn't need our help, but Jack needs it. As long as we keep in touch with them and help them more, it is equivalent to giving


Lana's helping hands!"


James smiled and took a sip from his glass as he began to praise her, "You are indeed my daughter. You understand right away. Helping Jack means helping the God of War's friend. This means next time we need Lana's help, she'll help us!" Then, she asked again, "Right, you haven't told me how she is today?"


"Don't worry, I gave them my business card. I was there on time. If we were there a little later, I'm afraid we'd miss a very good chance! So this is what happened. We go there, and..." Tanya quickly told James what had happened. Then, he said happily, "Jack is not an indifferent man. He even shook my hand to express his gratitude before he left. However, something felt strange..."


"Any?" James dumbfounded. "Why do you say that?"


Tanya spoke after thinking for a moment. "Logically, a soldier would have calluses on his palms because they often used weapons. Despite that, I realized Jack barely had calluses on his palms. They're very delicate. It was as if he had never been to the army!"


James surprised. He thought about it for a moment and said, "Maybe he didn't go to the battlefield but worked in the logistics department. Whatever it is, help them as much as possible. Even if he asks for 10 billion dollars, give it to them. him, okay? I'm sure there must be something special between him and Lana."



The next morning, Ivan eagerly gathers all of the Taylor family's relatives as they come in search of Old Master Taylor and his father.


Chapter 39


Iwan, what's wrong? It's very early morning and everyone is gathered here. Do you have anything important to announce?" Theodore, the head of the Taylor family, asked puzzledly when he saw his son.


"I have good news for everyone. I got a big project this time. The important thing is that we have never worked on such an expensive project before. I estimate we can earn at least 300 million dollars from this project." Ivan smiled as he said that, with a proud expression on his face.


He believed that Michael was the one holding his words, so he could not help his excitement. With trembling hands, he gathered everyone together and told them about it.


"Good, this must be a very big project!"


"That's right. Young Master Ivan is a very competent person. He gave us a big project. Moreover, the profits were extremely high!"


Some relatives of the Taylor family gasped in admiration.


"really? Did you sign the contract?" Old Master Taylor was also very pleased after hearing the news. That would be a big advantage. It's been quite a while since the Taylor family last accepted such a project and it's worth about 300 million dollars in profit. The Taylor family should pay attention to this project.


"The contract is done. Young Master Wilson has already approved the project. We made a deal on the phone!"


"Grandfather, I'll see him later and sign the contract. Don't worry, it's done." Ivan immediately patted his chest and convinced his grandfather.


However, he doesn't tell them about how the bum, Jack, is now being cheated on. Selena may even be crying under her blanket right now.


"Then go fast and get the contract signed. Nothing gets settled until the contract is signed, okay? One can change one's mind very easily in terms of oral promises!" Very pleased, Old Master Taylor immediately reminded Ivan.


"Yes, yeah. Quick. Book a hotel and celebrate when you return! Let's have lunch together!" Theodore was even more excited. He felt very proud that his son had finally achieved something. He eventually made money for the Taylor family.


"good. It's been a while since we last had dinner together." The old master nodded his head and agreed. "Let's make a reservation at a more luxurious hotel. What about the Dorsett Hotel?"


"alright. Dorsett Hotel is a five star hotel. Very impressive!" Theodore laughed out loud.


"By the way, grandpa, should we invite Selena and the bum over? The more the merrier!" Ivan immediately put the idea forward when the thought came to his mind.


She wanted to see how Selena would force herself to smile after sleeping with Michael last night. Of course, he also wanted to show Selena that he was a competent man. Without Selena, she's still capable of helping the Taylor Group thrive!


Chapter 40


"You want to invite those hicks? Young Master Ivan, you're trying to show off, right?" Unexpectedly, Cecilia stepped forward and revealed Ivan's intentions.


Embarrassed, Ivan explained himself hurriedly, "What empty tooth are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?" Ivan paused for a moment before continuing, "After all, Selena is also part of the Taylor family. He is the granddaughter of my grandfather. This was considered a big event for the Taylor family. Inviting it to such a big celebration also benefits us. , other influential people would probably call us stingy if they knew we didn't invite it. After all, inviting a few more people doesn't cost you anything, does it?"


Satisfied, Old Master Taylor nodded. “Indeed Ivan is an adult now. You've been more mature lately. You have to keep this mindset if you want to achieve great things in life! After all, it had been five years and many had already forgotten about the incident.it would not hurt to invite them to eat!"


"Grandfather is right. That's intention. I want them to know that we're so generous." Iwan laughing. "Alright, grandpa. I'll sign the contract now. You can book a reservation at the hotel in the meantime. We'll have lunch at exactly 12 p.m. I'll be ready to bring you some good news!"


"alright. Please!" The old master laughed. Working on a project of that size with a profit of 300 million dollars is enough to prove Ivan's ability. If Ivan can do more projects like this in the future, he will consider handing over the Taylor family business to Ivan.


Seeing the old master's happy face, Theodore was also very happy. Ivan finally made him proud for the umpteenth time. Although he was the head of the Taylor family, the old master never gave him any rights because he was once addicted to gambling. There was one time he lost 10 million dollars in one night. Since then, the old master had never trusted him. Five years ago, the old master thought highly of Selena's talent in running a business. He even wanted to leave the family business to her. Theodore was a little confused by that thought. However, she never imagined Selena's wayward behavior would destroy her own bright future and instead benefit her son. Although his son liked to play around, he was finally able to sigh in relief today. Despite Ivan's words, many members of the Taylor family knew that Ivan wanted to invite Selena and her family to lunch to show off his abilities.


...


The sun was shining brightly over a garden. Jack brought back the linen sack.


"Mom, you don't have to go to work. I told you to stay home. I can take care of you!" Jack smiled as he spoke to Joan.


"But my heart can't calm down if I don't work. Anyway, we need money." Joan smiled bitterly. It was hard sweeping the streets under the scorching sun, but he could not find a better job as he got older. He has suffered so much over the last few years to support his family.


Suddenly, Jack put his hand in the sack and pulled out a bundle of cash. He handed her 50 grand. "Mom, I just went to take the money. Here's your pocket money. Do you feel calmer now?"


Joan was surprised to see the amount of money in her hands. "It's too much. Instead of giving it to me, you should give it to Selena so she can spend it on groceries. You need the money when Kylie starts going in Kindergarten too!"
