“Elissa, let go of my daughter!”
Kieran was upset as he threw his cigarette end and dashed into the toilet.
Slap!
He slapped Elissa and angrily said, “What has our family become? It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, would our family be like this? Kate is already like this, how could you hit her as her mother?”
The sudden scene stunned Elissa and Tommy.
Kieran had always been the weak and docile type that would just hold his anger back.
“Why are you shouting at me?” Elissa was dumbfounded for a moment before she covered her face and screamed.
“You're screaming? Believe me or not, I'll kill you today?” Kieran lifted his hands to hit Elissa, it made her so scared that she pulled her neck back.
Seeing that the situation wasn't right, Tommy quickly mediated them, “Dad, why did you hit Mom?”
“She was going to kill your sister, and I can't help?”
Kieran turned his head and glared angrily with his red eyes.
Tommy swallowed his saliva and pulled Elissa back to the room.
Kieran looked at Katherine, who was on the floor with teary red eyes.
Katherine curled her body up on he floor, her face was full of red hand prints but she kept washing her body with a hollow gaze.
She murmured, “Dirty... I'm dirty...”
That scene was very heartbreaking for Kieran.
Thump!
He kneeled on the ground and cried, “What bad did I do? Kate... I'm sorry.”
Katherine, suddenly stopped shaking.
On the next second.
“Dad...”
Katherine threw herself to Kieran's arms, and cried out loud.
They hugged each other as they cried... Kieran kept apologizing and patting Katherine's back to console her.
...
The next morning.
Jack felt wonderful as he woke up from his slumber, the one day change made him feel like he was reborn.
He finished Brent's harsh training in the morning.
After taking a bath, he went to the company right away.
DT company.
Everyone was looking happy with their bright smiles.
At that time, there was still an hour before the work hours.
But everyone had arrived earlier.
Even Corbin and a few middle ranks from the company immediately rushed to the company once the sky was bright.
“Have you guys seen the news last night? Oh gosh, I even thought that I was hallucinating at that time!”
“It's really unexpected! After YK announced their entrance again, people in my district who bought West Shantytowns' houses were crying all night.”
“QY International and YK, two big companies entered at the same time, the price of West Shantytowns' houses will definitely rise up high.”
...
A group of employees was enthusiastically discussing it.
Only Corbin sat on the side, he seemed to be lost in thought.
He was the earliest one to the company, after the news was out last night, he couldn't sleep for the whole night out of excitement.
However, he didn't feel tired at all.
As if there were slides on his mind, he kept recalling about those two days.
In the end, the slides stopped at Jack.
“Jack didn't seem to be flustered at all from the very start, did he know it beforehand?”
Once the thought popped up, Corbin's pupils immediately shrank as his heart was beating hard.
Could that be... Jack's big plan?
The more Corbin thought about it, the more he was sure of his terrifying idea.
Jack was the one who brought him, and he had been working with Jack since he worked at the company… He was the one who knew Jack best.
If Jack didn't have plan from the start, then how could Jack be perfectly composed during those two days?
After realizing it, Corbin looked at his colleagues that were discussing enthusiastically, and smiled proudly.
As expected, he was the only one in the company that understood Jack the most!
