Chapter 1063

Besides, the way Jack spoke sounded familiar to Wilhelmina. Although Jack had intentionally changed his voice, he forgot to do so at a critical moment.

Even though those coincidences made Wilhelmina suspicious that Jack was the person who had saved her, she gave up the idea once her relationship with him worsened. That was because she couldn't accept the fact.

However, as she looked at the gunshot scar on Jack's shoulder that he had accidentally revealed, Wilhelmina was stunned.

Her savior had gotten injured to save her on the plane. She had bandaged his injury back then, so she vividly remembered how it looked it was the exact same shape as Jack's scar.

That was why she was flabbergasted the moment she saw his injury.

Once Jack recounted what had happened on the plane and how he had saved her, Wilhelmina was certain that her savior was the bastard she loathed. He had even appeared in her dreams many times.

All at once, her heart was filled with emotions. She was shocked and didn't know what to do.

It seemed that fate had played a cruel trick on her. Why was the man she hated the one whom she liked as well? Why was that so?

Since she couldn't find the answer to her questions, she simply stared dumbly at Jack. Unexpectedly, her hatred toward him lessened considerably.

Meanwhile, Jack observed Wilhelmina for a while. Though he noticed the change in her expression, she didn't seem like she wanted to end her life. So, he headed back to the restaurant.

As expected, Wilhelmina trailed behind him numbly. Her face was pale, as if her soul had been sucked out of her.

Even though Jack noticed it, he just sighed to himself and remained silent.

Earlier, though Wilhelmina had confidently declared that she was going to tell her parents what Jack had done to her, she kept quiet at the moment.

Yet, Trent noticed that something was wrong. Though he didn't know the reason behind it, he asked in concern, "What's wrong, Mina?"

Hearing that, Jack tensed up. When he recalled Wilhelmina's threats toward him, he became worried that she would reveal the truth and ruin everything.

However, Wilhelmina simply gave him a look and then replied calmly, "Nothing's wrong. I just felt uncomfortable all of a sudden."

"You aren't feeling well?" Hearing that, Mavis looked at Jack worriedly. "Jack, did you quarrel with Wilhelmina just now?"

Jack laughed and tried to ease the tension, saying, "Of course not. Mr. Dodger gave me a reminder

beforehand, so how could dare to quarrel with her?"

Wilhelmina's body shook slightly. In the end, she smiled and replied gently, "Yes, dad. You're worrying too much."

Since both parties denied it, Trent didn't pursue the matter further.

The atmosphere turned lively again. The meal ended amid laughter and cheerful banter.

After the meal, Trent and Mavis bade farewell to Quintis and Emily.

Then, Trent turned and told Jack, "If you're free next time, you can visit Boleria to
