King's Back novel Chapter 16

It was eleven o’clock in the evening when Dolcie came home, only to find that the lights were still on and Jackson was sitting on the couch watching TV.

"I am back."

Dolcie was indifferent, without unnecessary words or greetings.

Dolcie took off her shoes, left her bag on the table and collapsed on the sofa.

"Have some the chicken soup." Jackson stood up and brought out a bowl of fragrant chicken soup.

Dolcie looked at the chicken soup with exasperation and said, "You leave it there. I want to talk to you."

Jackson was stunned, then sat down again.

"Tomorrow is the Family Day. Family and relatives of the Clark family will go back and get together."

"Yes, I see."

Dolcie hesitated, and decided to speak out.

"On the Family Day, we generally make decisions about some matters in the family, and this time, it is to discuss our divorce."

Kiara had been ill for three years, and Dolcie had been living with a man whom she had no love for.

With the efforts of Dolcie, Kiara finally saw the ability of the Clark family. Dolcie not only signed the contract with the Chou Group, but also won the affection from Logan.

So, for the sake of the Clark family's future, Kiara decided to throw Jackson out of the family and found another husband for Dolcie.

"What do you think?" Jackson asked.

"I'm just a woman," Dolcie said with a wry smile. "a tool at the mercy of my family. This was the case three years ago. After three years, will there be any changes??"

"No one can keep us apart if you don't want to." Jackson said firmly.

Dolcie felt warm.

Since being humiliated at her grandmother's birthday party, Jackson had changed a lot. He was more responsible and started to go to work.

Actually, it was not bad to be with Jackson...

Dolcie was taken aback by the idea. How could she have such a terrible idea? She couln't be moved because he had cooked chicken soup for her every day for three years.

She didn't like Jackson at all, and they had no emotional basis. They were forced to get married, so they would never be in love!

"Do you remember the Bronze Pot? Tell them that you did not get it by luck, but that you identified it as a treasure. Maybe Kiara will look at you with new eyes.”

"it is just a pot," Jackson chuckled. "It is not a big deal."

"But that pot is worth fifty million yuan!" Dolcie raised her voice.

"Fifty million. Is that a lot?" Jackson shrugged and said innocently.

"You... You're such a hopeless bonehead."

Jackson said calmly, "Don't worry, tomorrow I'll prove to the Clark family that I am not a loser."

"How do you prove it?" Dolcie asked, puzzled.

"You will know it. My dear, drink the chicken soup."

Dolcie shook her head, thinking that Jackson was talking big again, but lately that he said seemed to be coming true.

Was there anything he had hiding from her?

Dolcie drank chicken soup, and then went back to her room, slamming the door behind him.
