Chapter 686
Peter had returned to Brightland to continue his studies.
In the last two days, Ronan had fabricated all sorts of negative news about Genesis Games. He created fake stories about Genesis Games' founder and spread the articles to all the big media outlets to be reported on. Since he didn't have any concrete evidence to back up his claims, the titles of these articles all had the word "suspected" included in them.
Leslie and Peter had been responsible for fanning the flames in the background while many famous lawyers came out to show their support for Ronan. Thus, these articles were treated as the truth by the media outlets as they reported on them extensively.
The articles also caught the attention of the media outlets from abroad and damaged the reputation of the founder of Genesis Games. However, no one dared to publicly demand an investigation to be conducted on Jack. They were wary of the massive support the players threw behind the company.
After a long period of waiting, Josiah's investigation results were finally revealed. Jack's brow was furrowed tightly as he studied the report closely. Josiah was extremely skilled at hacking, and he had successfully traced the source of the
rumors.
Jack knew he had to act swiftly. He grabbed his phone, dialed a number, and gave out his orders. He only cut the call after he was satisfied.
That day, Jack had made plans to visit a jewelry store to pick out a present for Feena. Ever since the two of them went steady, their relationship had been progressing rapidly. Feena would visit Alnewgo University every day if she had any free time, using the excuse that she needed to alter her lyrics as a front to be intimate with Jack.
In Feena's eyes, every moment she got to spend with Jack was invaluable to her. On the other hand, Jack had committed Feena's birthday to memory since long ago, but he never had a chance to celebrate her special day with her.
Now that the opportunity had presented itself, he wanted to give her an unforgettable surprise. However, a sense of guilt also pricked at Jack's heart. He wondered if Bella chose to leave him because he wasn't caring enough toward her. Ever since he got together with Feena, he became determined to do better by her.

He didn't have any classes in the afternoon, so Jack drove to the high-end business district to carry out his plan. He had originally planned to gift a diamond ring to Feena, but ultimately decided against it, thinking that it might seem too official. Thus, he settled on purchasing a necklace or bracelet for her.
Jack entered a diamond store. Although the diamonds on display in the shop were bright and dazzling, he felt that they lacked a certain appeal that would move a person's heart. There were a few pretty staff in the shop when Jack entered, but they showed a distinct lack of enthusiasm at his appearance.
Jack was much too young, which lowered his position in their eyes. He also wasn't accompanied by a woman, so he didn't appear to be a potential buyer. Besides, the jewels in the shop all cost a fortune. An ordinary consumer wouldn't be able to afford them.
However, they still had to be polite to Jack. One of the pretty staff approached Jack and asked if he needed any assistance. Jack wasn't bothered by their flippant attitude toward him. He pointed at a necklace that was exceptionally beautiful and said, "I would like to take a look at this necklace, please."
The staff handed the necklace to Jack before saying with a smile, "You have a good eye! This necklace is the newest style that we have in our shop. If you give it to your girlfriend, she is sure to be pleased."
"How much is it?" asked Jack.
The staff fixed a professional smile on her face before answering, "The name of this necklace is 'Eternal Love.' It's one of the best necklaces in our shop. If you would like to purchase it, we can give you a 12 percent discount. The total cost after the discount will be 28 thousand dollars."
Jack's brows knitted together after hearing the price.
