Chapter 127 Are You Sure?

At this moment, she was in disbelief. She asked, "J..Jack? Is…is that really you?"r

Jack was surprised, he was wondering what was wrong with this girl. When he was coming back from the washroom, he saw her running frantically, it was as if something had happened and she was afraid that if she was late, an even more terrible thing would occur.r

He had intended to ask her where she was heading when she crashed into him. In a reflex action, he held her by her waist. Of course, he didn't let her go as he was worried about her.r

And now, as she looked at him with surprise and tears glistening at the corners of her eyes, Jack didn't know what to say. He wondered to himself, 'Has someone claimed that I'm dead or something?'r

"What's going on with you? You were rushing somewhere. Has something happened?" Jack asked after a moment.r

Celine didn't respond immediately as she looked at him for a while. Then, she buried her head in his chest, hugging him tightly, surprising him again. Since she seemed agitated, Jack decided to wait till she calmed down first before asking again to know what was going on.r

Collins who happened to arrive at the scene when Celine buried her head into Jack's embrace gritted his teeth as anger dominated him. He just couldn't believe that all the girls that he had been chasing, all those that he had marked as his own were now taken away by the very same person.r

He felt that he was going crazy. He wondered if the call was just a ploy by Celine to get away from him. Taking a deep breath, he tried calming down as he gazed at the two in the distance with reddened eyes.r

At that moment, as if feeling his malicious gaze on them, Jack looked up and met Collins's red eyes met with his blue eyes.r

Looking at the raging Collins, Jack began thinking that it was Collins who Celine was running from. As he thought of this, his gaze turned cold as he glared at him.r

He wasn't sure but, he decided to ask Celine. If it was true that Collins was actually having some designs on Celine to frighten her to the extend where she ran around like that, he would surely have to make him pay the price.r

After seeing Collins walking away, Jack hid his anger and stroked Celine's hair. After a few minutes, she calmed down. It was only then that she remembered where they were.r

Looking around, she noticed that it was true that there were some people who were looking at the two of them. Although there were many people who had their respective partners here, the two of them were just too eye-catching.r

Not only were they handsome and beautiful, but the way that Celine had been running as if she was being chased had obviously made them curious about what was happening.r

Separating herself from Jack, Celine took a deep breath before she looked at Jack again, just to make sure that he was real.r

"Can you enlighten me on why you were running like that and why you are looking at me in such a manner?" Jack asked again when he noticed that Celine was looking around his body, as if she was looking for something.r

Celine only came back to her senses at this then. So, she replied, "Angy just called and said that you were injured. She said that you were in an ambulance and you were being taken to Star hospital."r

Jack: "…."r

Jack was left speechless. "You are joking, right?" He had to ask, just to make sure that his ears were hearing things correctly.r

"I'm not joking. I was rushing to get a taxi to the hospital at this time. Had I not bumped into you, I would now be in a taxi now." Celine said seriously. But at the same time, she was confused on why Angy had said that Jack was injured.r

The Jack that was standing in front of her didn't have a single injury. The white shirt that he was wearing before was still the same. In other words, if he had been injured, this shirt would definitely have been red at this moment.r

Jack looked at her again. Seeing that she was not joking, he thought that there had to be something wrong. He believed that there was no way that Angy would play such a trick on Celine.r

"Let's go to the Star hospital and see what is going on." Jack suggested.r

"Okay." Celine nodded in response. She too was curious as to why Angy said that Jack was hurt when he was standing in front of her, and he was healthy.r

The two of them took a taxi and headed to the Star hospital. This was the biggest hospital in Volant city.r

Since they had no car in Volant city, the had to take the taxi. Otherwise, with his driving skills, Jack would have surely charged through so that he could arrive there as fast as possible.r

Although the suspicion that Collins was involved had been reduced, he didn't completely eliminate him. Maybe this was a plan that he had, he might have made Angy tell Celine that he was injured. Then, she would go to Star hospital.r

That was the exact reason as to why he decided to go to Star hospital. He wanted to know what ploy was going on.r

About thirty minutes later, they arrived at Star hospital. Jack asked Celine to call Angy, only to realize that her phone had been left behind after she received the call from Angy.r

But since she knew Angy's number, Jack gave her his phone and she made a call. Immediately after that, Angy informed her that she was in males ward 67.r

The two of them immediately headed there. After receiving permission to enter by the reception, they took the elevator to the fourth floor.r

Jack then asked Celine to go first before he followed behind. Celine wasn't sure why Jack wanted things to be this way. But all the same, she didn't ask a question and went forward according to his plan.r

…r

Angy was getting anxious. She was pacing around in the corridor. She wasn't alone as a devastated Wendy was there with her.r

The two girls were so anxious and their eyes were completely reddened, not knowing what to do at that time. When they heard hurried footsteps heading their way, they looked up only to see Celine had arrived.r

"Celine!" Angy rushed forward and pulled Celine. Then, she placed her on the waiting bench.r

"What's going on Angy? What's going on?" Celine asked. Although she had calmed down since she knew that Jack was okay, she couldn't help but want to know what was going on. Furthermore, the blood on Angy's clothes also made her wonder what the hell was going on.r

If it was true that Angy was playing a prank on her, there would be no need for her to come here in the hospital's ward. Additionally, the blood on Angy's clothes was real.r

"I was out at the edge of the forest. I was relaxing when I suddenly saw Jack getting out of the forest. He was injured and was losing so much blood." Angy began explaining.r

"I'm not sure what happened to him. At that time, he had lost so much blood. The wounds on his body were definitely caused by a blade. He lost consciousness at that time. So, I called for the emergency department that then called for an ambulance. After that, I called the two of you as you were the closest to him." Angy finished.r

Celine didn't know what and how to respond to Angy. If it was true that Jack was injured, then how come she was with him at that time? Furthermore, he was also here. Could it be that Angy had gotten another person and thought that he was Jack?r

After all, if the other person was actually full of wounds and blood, he would definitely not have the normal appearance. Maybe that was why Angy confused him to be Jack?r

"Are you sure that it was Jack?" Celine asked.r

Angy was dumbfounded at Celine's question. She wasn't the only one as even Wendy didn't know what was wrong with Celine. Could she be an imposter? After all, the reaction that she was giving at this moment was by far different from what was expected.r

They knew that she loved Jack. So, there was no way that she wouldn't be worried about him when she heard that he was hurt.r

They were about to ask when they heard another voice asking the same question, "Are you sure about that?"r

Angy and Wendy both looked at that direction. Their eyes widened in disbelief as they couldn't believe what they were seeing.r

"J… Jack? How is that possible? Are… aren't you inside there?" Angy stuttered as she looked at Jack before pointing at the ward. She was sure that Jack was inside there and he was wounded.r

How the hell was he out of the ward? And what's more, how come he wasn't injured? There wasn't even a scar on him!r

….r

The furious Collins got back to where his lackeys were waiting for him. He looked at the phone in his hands and decided that he could start by using Celine's phone to get all the information that he could get on Jack.r

Since Jack was playing both sides with the girls that he had chosen, he had to deal with him earlier. There was a step that when it was crossed, there was no turning back. He knew that being late would allow them time to cross that line.r

He halted his steps and made a call, "I want someone who's good at hacking to get to Volant city's Adventure Recreation Resort by evening today."r

After finishing this, he continued walking forward. He wanted to make even more plans. Although he had always tried using the right means to get the two girls to date him, he had to make a change.r

Since the conventional way wouldn't work, he had to use the unconventional one. Even if he would have to threaten them one after the other or together, he would. Or, even if he had to kidnap them, he wouldn't hesitate.r

Whatever means worked, he would use as long as he could get his hands on the two ladies that he had been lusting for, for a few years now.
