Hundred Times Income Multiplier System
Chapter 138 What's Your Relationship?Crack!r
The sound of something breaking could be heard even with the painful screams of the youths.r
What followed this was another terrifying and ear-piercing scream that spread for almost 500m radius.r
The scream was so terrifying in that it made those who were wailing from having their two limbs broken forget about it. At this moment, even if their hands were broken, they felt lucky that their third one wasn't.r
Unconsciously, they pulled their legs together before turning their backs towards Jack. This was an instinct for all men when they see something like this happen to another man's third arm.r
Even though they were in pain, they had finally decided to stay silent because they were afraid that they would attract the attention of the devil. How could they afford to entertain him?r
Of course Jack had no intention of dealing with those guys the same way that he was dealing with Collins. They had been instigated and the worst mistake that they did was to hold Celine down.r
On the other hand, Collins had the courage to go ahead and actually think of defiling her? Since he only used that part of his body to think, he might as well destroy it so that his suppressed brain could start functioning later on.r
Celine on the other hand was at first surprised by the cries of the youths that were holding her in place on the ground. Then in the next second after all the hands that were holding her down disappeared, she felt someone lifting her off the floor.r
When she managed to catch the appearance of the person that had helped her, she was completely dumbfounded. Wasn't this the same woman that she had seen in Jack's room? How come she was here? And why was she helping her?r
As more questions appeared in her mind, Celine gazed at the wailing youths on the ground. Although their screams could incite pity from others, that was only from those that didn't know what had actually happened.r
She as the victim didn't have any pity for them. In fact, she felt that losing a hand was not enough punishment for them. After all, tonight, had it not been for Jack, she would have lost one of the most precious things to a woman.r
She now just wanted to beat them up now that she had a chance. But she still held back the impulse and went back to observing the lady that was holding her.r
She was originally supposed to feel malice towards the lady, but seeing her face and how she was serious in protecting her, Celine just couldn't find herself hating Denali. They were competitors, right? Why was there no spirit of competition?r
As she asked herself these questions, she finally thought of something. This lady that was holding her, she was only a little older than her. But, not only was she extremely beautiful, but she was so powerful that she could handle a group of youths in just a few seconds.r
Celine found herself admiring Denali. Now, she wished that she couldn't be a woman who would be a burden to Jack, where she would only be waiting for him to come and save her. Instead, she wanted to be one that could at least fight alongside him.r
On the other hand, after screaming for a few more seconds, Collins finally fainted from pain. Jack gazed at him coldly. This was obviously not going to end here. He had to make sure that this guy was going to suffer.r
Had he not told Denali to come and follow Celine, just imagining what would have happened to her, he felt the fury in his heart intensifying.r
But now, there was something that completely displeased him. He shifted his gaze from Collins who was lying on the floor to Celine. Upon seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, he heaved a sigh of relief.r
Then, he looked at Denali and asked, "Why did you only take action at the last moment?" This was what displeased him completely. After all, Denali was present all this while. She should have taken action the moment that she found the mastermind.r
In the end, she only took action the moment that he arrived here, just when Collins was about to get his claws on Celine.r
Jack felt that it was bad enough that the youths had actually kidnapped and carried Celine away. But for them to hold her onto the ground the way he found them when he entered, that was unforgivable.r
Feeling Jack's anger, Denali's heart trembled. At this moment, she knew that Jack was displeased with the way that she did things.r
"I'm sorry boss. I was still trying to make sure that there was nobody else behind them." Denali replied with her head lowered guiltily.r
Her master had instructed her to protect Celine. In the end, not only had she allowed her to be kidnapped, she had also allowed her to be harassed by being pressed onto the ground by several men.r
Celine on the other hand was stunned. Acting at the last moment? Boss? What was going on here? She definitely couldn't understand what the two were talking about.r
But still, there was something that she understood. Jack was actually the lady's boss. And seeing how subservient Denali was, Celine could confirm that this was true.r
Then, she thought of how she had reacted when she saw Denali in Jack's room. Perhaps she should have confirmed the relationship between the two of them first, right? Thinking of her reaction, she blushed as she lowered her head, not willing to look into Jack's eyes.r
"Denali, you know what I would have wanted you to deal with this? First, you could have stopped the kidnapping. Then, you should have used those that were supposed to do the kidnapping to find the one that had sent them." Jack paused for a moment.r
He then continued, "You know what follows right? Use the same way to find the real mastermind and deal with them all."r
Denali could have actually used this method. But at that time, she had felt that this was the fastest method of getting the ones behind the incident rather than questioning these youths one by one.r
What's more, although she thought that her master cared about Celine, she had never thought that it was to this extend. Her loyalty was to her master. So, she wouldn't mind using others as a means of getting what she wanted.r
At that time, she had thought that as long as she made sure that nothing happened to Celine, there would be no problem at all. In the end, it turned out that she was completely wrong.r
"I'm sorry boss. I was wrong. I promise that this won't repeat." Denali admitted her mistake.r
Taking a deep breath, Jack decided to let Denali go. This was the first mistake that she had made ever since she became his subordinate, but she had done a lot for him. So, he could forgive her this once.r
"Never mind. But remember that when I tell you to look after someone, I mean that no harm should fall on that person. If you can't handle the situation, inform me immediately." Jack reminded.r
"Got it boss." Denali was relieved that her master had forgiven her. But all the same, she made a vow to make up for the mistake today by working harder in the future.r
"Celine, are you okay?" Jack asked.r
"I.. I'm fine. I'm sorry Jack, I shouldn't have reacted that way. I caused you trouble." Celine shook her head as she said guiltily.r
"Don't mind that." Jack waved his hand. Then, he thought of something and asked, "By the way, what happened back then? You simply ran away, I couldn't understand at all."r
Hearing Jack's words, Celine's face turned scarlet. She couldn't bring herself to tell the real reason behind why she ran away. What's more, she was embarrassed to say it, considering that the person that she thought badly of was actually sent to look out for her.r
"No… nothing. I just wanted some fresh air, that's all." Celine found an excuse.r
Though he could tell that she was lying, Jack decided not to pursue for the time being. He gazed at the group that was now gritting their teeth, enduring the pain that they were experiencing just to make sure that they played dead.r
Shaking his head, Jack looked at Denali and Celine before speaking. "Denali, take her back. I'll deal with this mess first."r
"Yes boss." Denali nodded before she pulled Celine away.r
Although she was unwilling to leave, Celine still thought that she shouldn't cause Jack more trouble. So, she simply said, "Take care Jack." Then, she left alongside Denali.r
Once they were a distance from the playground, they found out that there was a group of people who were heading there. It seemed that they had heard the screams coming from the playground.r
Celine was worried. She wanted to go ahead and talk to the guards that were heading there, when suddenly, her surroundings blurred and before she knew it, they were already a distance away from the playground.r
Before she could say a word, Denali spoke first, "You will have to trust him. If he said that he was going to take care of it, then he will." Denali completely trusted Jack in that she believed that if he said he could do something, then he could.r
Hearing her words, Celine was stunned for a moment. Then taking a deep breath, she too decided to believe that Jack could actually handle the situation. As for how she got far from the playground area, remembering that Denali could actually deal with the youths in a matter of seconds, she decided not to ask about it.r
As they got further from the playground, she finally decided to ask something. "What's your relationship with Jack?" Although Denali was calling Jack boss, Celine just wanted to confirm their relationship.r
"I'm his personal assistant." Denali replied simply. As a woman, she could already imagine what Celine was thinking. She had also happened to see Celine when she came to meet Jack. Additionally, she had seen the change of expression on Celine's face as she deliberated on what to do.r
"Oh." Celine was surprised. But, she didn't find that it was impossible that Jack had an assistant. She too had Faith who was helping her. And the way that Jack was busy during the past few days, it was obvious that he needed assistance.r
"What were you doing now? A project?" Celine continued asking.r
Denali smiled in response. She could tell that Jack really cared about this lady. So, giving her a piece of information that wasn't sensitive wasn't bad anyways.r
"I was helping him find some information on someone." Denali stated.r
"Someone? Could it be the one that wanted to kill him?" Celine asked.r
"Oh, you know about that?" Denali was surprised. In any case, she wasn't there when the incident where Johnathan was attacked happened. So, she didn't know that Celine knew about this.r
Seeing Celine nod her head, Denali explained. "That's right. I was looking for all the information about the one that had the intention of having him killed. I just arrived tonight and he thought that it would be good if I could find the information that I could tonight."r
