The lights were charming and gentle.
The smell of alcohol could be smelt in the room.
The fragrance of the wine and Hana could be smelt. She looked extremely beautiful.
Her burning drunken eyes seductively looked at Jack as if she wanted to engulf Jack.
At the moment, Jack was confused and his gaze looked blank.
“Don’t you want to quickly grasp this kind of opportunity?”
Hana’s breath was as fragrant as a flower. Her long and slender hand slowly grabbed Jack’s right hand and she placed his hand on her waist. At the same time, she moved her body and slowly pressed on Jack.
At the moment, Jack was like a fish on the chopping board that could only wait for Hana to pick him up.
His expression was dull and his eyes looked blank.
For Hana, Jack’s reaction was too common.
After involving herself in the entertainment industry for these many years, she had seen this kind of reaction so many times.
There was no man who didn’t fall for her after showing this kind of reaction.
“You are the first man who I am willing to own.”
Hana’s extraordinary pretty face showed arrogance. A lot of men had fallen for her but she didn’t even care about them or give them a glance.
Her first time was Jack!
“I am the first one? Then wouldn’t I be very honored?”
Jack smiled gently. His eyes slowly got back their focus.
“What do you think? I… am your queen!”
Hana’s face looked more arrogant. Her drunken eyes looked charming.
However.
When Hana grabbed his wrist and his hand almost reached her waist, Jack’s strengthless hand suddenly regained his strength and his hands stopped moving.
Hana was stunned because of the sudden move.
The next second.
“You are more than thirty years old and you are still a virgin. Why are you showing off?”
Jack shook his head and laughed disdainfully.
After he said the words.
There was a loud sound in Hana’s brain. She was completely stunned.
‘Thirty years old… Still a virgin. Showing off?’
‘Was… he mocking and laughing at me?’
The drunkenness and charm that was showed on her extraordinary pretty face had disappeared at the moment. Then, her face looked extremely cold.
“Jack, don’t you want to live?”
“I want!”
Jack answered decisively.
Hana was suddenly shocked and angry. She asked in confusion, “Then why are you mocking me?”
“I am a disabled person and I also have a wife.”
Jack’s eyes and face looked cold, “I, Jack Hughes, have acted arrogantly, but I still understand the current situation. How could you possibly like me with your status as a member of the Powell family?”
While talking, Jack freed himself from Hana. He grabbed Hana’s wrists and pushed her away from the wheelchair.
His move had almost made Hana mad suddenly.
‘Was he crazy?’
‘I had given myself to him and he treated me like this?’
‘Since when did I, Hana, become this unbearable to men?’
“Say your conditions.”
Jack said calmly. He was extremely calm as he looked at Hana.
Hana who had almost gone mad stared at Jack as she had a lot of doubts in her heart.
For her, Jack at the moment looked completely different compared to just now.
Anger, shame, hatred, and other emotions were mixed together.
They had made Hana unable to control herself. She angrily clenched her teeth and lazily fell back and directly laid on the sofa.
The cold and resolute sound echoed in the room.
Jack’s cold face immediately looked depressed as he frowned.
The anger in his heart immediately surged to his head.
‘Married her?’
‘Married into her family?’
‘What kind of bullshit condition was this?!’
Hana continued talking, “As long as you marry into my Powell family and become the son-in-law of my Powell family and become my man, the Powell family would naturally let you go!”
“Every man in the world couldn’t even beg for this kind of opportunity. Now I am personally giving you this opportunity and I will also let you live. I could also prevent your Hughes family from fighting with my Powell family. Couldn’t you make the right choice?”
It was quiet.
The room was quiet as if the sound of a needle dropped onto the ground could be heard.
Jack looked depressed as he sat in the wheelchair. He held his fists tightly and his fists trembled. He couldn’t accept Hana’s arrogance and the condition she said.
As a husband. As a father.
If he agreed with such condition at this moment, what kind of man he was?
“I, Jack Hughes, have three things to protect in my life. One of those is my wife and child. Now… you are asking me to abandon my wife and child to beg for my life.”
Jack smiled coldly. His smile was getting more obvious.
However, his eyes looked cruel and fierce. His eyes looked red.
Every word from the arrogant Hana was lingering around his ears at the moment as if the sharp needles that harshly pocked on his heart.
This kind of choice, he had seen before!
Twenty years ago, didn’t the choice that his father had helplessly made look similar to now?
Yet, this choice had made his mother and him hide for their life for more than twenty years. They had lived a life worse than a dog!
He could forgive his father’s choice. However, he couldn’t allow him to make such a choice!
“I am sorry. I, Jack Hughes, could die while standing up but I couldn’t live while kneeling on the ground. My wife and child are more important than my life.”
Jack coldly said the words, “We don’t have to talk about the cooperation anymore. I am going home to accompany my wife and child. If your Powell family is going to punish me because of your anger, I, Jack Hughes, am willing to die for it!”
