Since he was there to take over the business, he didn't stay there for a long time. After he had signed a few documents that he was supposed to, he finally decided to leave.
He still had other companies to pay a visit to. Although it was true that the companies could have sent the documents over to him so that he could have completed everything at once, he decided to go and pay them a visit still.
The reason behind this was simply because, he actually wanted to know the situation at the companies that he was owning. He didn't want a situation where he didn't even know what his company did.
When Jack got out of the building, he was surprised to find out that there was a commotion at the entrance of the company.
This made him raise his brows as he wondered what had happened. According to his thoughts, something like that should not have happened considering that there were security guards.
All the same, he wasn't interested in something like that. He got into the car that they had come over with. Denali got into the driver's seat before she immediately drove towards the exit.
When they arrived at the gate, the security guards immediately parted the crowd that was there so that they could allow Jack to leave.
But it was just then that a shout rang through the air. "Dad, that's the car! Jack is inside there!"
Although he was inside the car, Jack could immediately tell that the voice belonged to his half-brother Steve. With his sharp senses, he could easily hear what Steve was saying from a distance.
Although he wouldn't have wanted to stop, there were still a lot of people who were standing in front of the car and as a result, the car couldn't leave yet.
Before he could say anything, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man pushing through the crowd. Steve followed behind him.
Jack could of course immediately identify the man. It was none other than his excuse of a father, Dalton. He was looking now way older than when Jack saw him back at inchoate city.
Jack didn't need to guess to know that Dalton had been undergoing a very difficult life.
As a person who had always been living a life where he had everything that he needed, to suddenly be dropped to the lowest position, where he was being hunted for debts, it was indeed depressing.
Nonetheless, Jack didn't care about that. When he and his mother were undergoing a lot of problems back in the Alfonso family, Dalton, as the family head as well as his father, actually did nothing to help him and his mother.
Since he had ignored him back then, then Jack was going to do the same. Although he was the one who had made him fall into that position, Jack considered this as a payment that he had to pay for facilitating the death of his mother.
Even though it was true that he didn't intentionally or unintentionally want to kill her, his ignorance of her had led to her being poisoned by one of his wives.
"Jack! Get out of that car right now! How dare you enjoy your life there while I, your father is suffering out here?" The moment that Dalton approached, he shouted.
Jack, who was in the car, immediately rolled his eyes. He wondered if Dalton had a screw loose in his head. The guy was shouting with all the authority in his voice as if he could actually command him.
Jack looked at Denali through the rearview mirror. "Just ignore them and continue with where we are going. We don't have that much time to waste on them." Jack stated.
Denali nodded her head before she looked at the guards who were confused on whether to continue opening the path for the car or to allow Dalton to see Jack.
Although it was true that they didn't like the way that Dalton was behaving, if it was true that Jack shared a relationship with Dalton, then they would be in trouble if they caused him problems.
"Open the way." Denali stated calmly to the leader of the security guards.
The guard immediately nodded before he instructed his subordinates to immediately open the way.
Since this was another from above, the security guards became even aggressive as they dealt with those that continued standing in the path of the car.
As for Dalton, he was pushed back by the security guards, completely preventing him from approaching the car.
It was obvious that Dalton wasn't willing to let go of this chance to meet Jack. According to him, Jack had to at least fulfill his duty as a son.
Since he was currently going through a lot of trouble, having a very difficult time to even have meals, Jack should immediately take care of that since he was currently rich.
"You unfilial son! How dare you ignore your father when he is in this current condition? Or has that little wealth that you have gotten, gotten into your head?" Dalton shouted after Jack, with veins popping up on his forehead.
Of course, since he wasn't affected, Jack completely ignored him. It didn't matter to him what nonsense Dalton spouted. At the end of the day, he was going to continue with what he was doing everyday.
Upon seeing that his words had no effect on Jack, Dalton changed his strategy. "Your mother will definitely be disappointed if she were alive. I'm sure that she would even cry when she saw what kind of a son you have become…."
Just as Dalton was about to continue speaking, he saw that the car had suddenly halted. He was ecstatic, thinking that his words had actually affected Jack.
At that moment, he had already began fantasizing about how he was going to go back to his peak.
'Humph! You traitorous people! Just you wait! Since I'm about to go back to the peak that I was in before, I will surely make all of you suffer.' Dalton thought to himself.
Unknowingly, a smile had suddenly emerged on his face. He was already looking smug even before he received what he was yearning for.
Just then, the windows of the car went down to reveal Jack's face. His face was currently stone cold. Anger could be seen within his eyes only if one looked closely.
He stared at Dalton for a moment. Immediately after that, he spoke, "I hope that you don't dare to mention my mother ever again. Let this be the last warning that I'm going to give you. Otherwise, perhaps the current situation that you are in won't be the worst that you will have experienced."
Dalton's eyes widened in this belief when he heard Jack's words. He had never expected that Jack had actually stopped only to warn him. What was going on?
ƥαṇdαsηθνε|·ƈθm He couldn't help but blink his eyes a few times. In the end, in both anger and embarrassment, he looked at Jack with reddened eyes.
"How dare you scold me you bastard! I am your father. And I am going to give you a piece of my mind so that you can know how to respect your elders in the future." Dalton roared in anger as he tried to approach Jack's car.
But in the end, no matter how hard he struggled, he didn't manage to get through the security guards. These security guards were all strong and there was no way that Dalton could deal with them.
In the end, Dalton could only shout at Jack from a distance. But his anger at Jack never diminished for a moment. Even Steve who had been following behind Jack was angry at the fact that Jack had no respect for his father.
And as a result, he too had begun throwing expletives at Jack.
Jack stared at them for a while. In the end, their was never affected him as long as they didn't mention his mother. "You should disappear. I hope I won't see you around my companies in the future."
When Jack's words reached their ears, Dalton and Steve trembling in anger. Had it not been for the fact that they were being held back by the security guards, they would have immediately rushed at Jack and beat him up. But of course, that was only if they really had the ability to do that.
After saying his piece, Jack immediately decided to continue with his journey. At this moment, the security guards had already cleared the path for the car.
And as a result, the car then left the company's premises as it headed in another direction. They were heading towards another company that was in charge of production of toothpaste.
Both Dalton and Steve were left stunned and angry at Jack. But in the end, they could do nothing at him at all. This was not the time where Jack was inferior and they could pick on him.
The only thing that they could do at that moment was to stare at the car as it left with resentment clear in their eyes. They swore to themselves that, if they got an ability, they would surely take their revenge on Jack for embarrassing them.
What they actually didn't know was the fact that, Jack didn't like leaving loose ends behind. And in order to tie them up, he had actually sent a group of people to keep an eye on their moves.
As long as they dared to do anything that would affect Jack or anyone who was closer to him, they would be immediately dealt with. Of course, this would be before they took action.
