Chapter 1061
Jack was stunned when he noticed the resolve in Wilhelmina's eyes. She was really strong-willed. Instead of staying by his side, she would rather die.
Thinking about that, Jack's interest waned. After all, it would be pointless to hurt her further after what had happened between them.
As such, he sighed softly. "I'll let you have it your way if that's what you want."
He added seriously, "Since you don't want to marry me, I won't force you. After all, I don't like you. It's fine if you aren't willing to be my servant. You lost the bet, but I just took your first time.
"Considering our past, I'm on the losing end here. But let's call it even. Later, I'll go home with you. You can tell your parents about it first. Then, I'll inform my parents that we aren't compatible. As both of us are unwilling to get married, I'm sure our parents will understand."
After all, love couldn't be forced. If their parents insisted on their marriage, the outcome wouldn't be ideal. Instead of ending on a bad note, it would be better to leave on good terms.
At first, Wilhelmina was sobbing in despair. However, after hearing Jack's words, she paused. He didn't seem to be lying.
That bastard was willing to let her off.
"Is that true?" Surprise flashed across her face.
Once Jack nodded seriously, she followed suit. "Alright! Later on, I'll start the conversation."
"Okay."
Then, Jack stood up and wrung his clothes dry before picking up Wilhelmina's torn clothes. However, her outfit was ruined, and it barely covered her body.
Suddenly, Wilhelmina exclaimed shyly, "Wait!"
Jack stopped and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Wilhelmina gazed at him deeply, looking shocked. Meanwhile, Jack frowned, unsure of the reason for her reaction.
Wilhelmina approached him and stared at his body. In a trembling voice, she asked, "When did you get those injuries?"
Her attention was attracted the moment Jack removed his clothes. His injuries looked extremely familiar—she had seen them before.
Jack paused, suddenly recalling something when he noticed the look on Wilhelmina's face. He recalled a past incident when he was on a plane that was hijacked.
Back then, Wilhelmina, Wendy, and Jack were on a plane when a group of violent criminals hijacked it. In the midst of danger, Jack had appeared and rescued Wilhelmina just when all hope was lost.

Before Jack left, she had even
mustered her courage and confessed to him. To an arrogant woman like Wilhelmina, the confession took a lot of courage. However, she didn't know that
person was Jack because he had disguised himself.
Previously he had brushed aside her confession because he didn't know they would meet again. But after realizing that Wilhelmina was his fiancee and that they were rivals he felt it was like a cruel joke,
She probably never expected Jack to be the person she had confessed to. The person she liked turned out to be the one she hated most in the world.
As those thoughts flashed through Jack's mind, he turned and looked at Wilhelmina, who was stunned.
Smirking maliciously, he asked, "What? Are you interested in my injuries?"
"No."
Wilhelmina couldn't stand the look on Jack's face it was an insult to her.
