Chapter 209 Which One Is Fake?



Johnathan scoffed. He opened his mouth to reply but had no choice but to stop speaking.

Bang!

Just then, the door was shot open. From the sound, it was obvious that the door had been forcefully been kicked open.

All eyes turned towards the door. And the moment that they did that, all of them had widened eyes.

They looked at Jack with different emotions and thoughts running through their heads. To say the least, none of them had expected such an entrance from him.

Celine was the most excited at the moment. She had texted Jack and informed him of the situation here. As such, she was expecting that he would be here. But, it would be a lie to say that she didn't expect that he would be this fast when coming here. After all, it was just a few minutes ago that she had texted him about her situation.

And now that he was here, her heart that was somehow chaotic immediately calmed down. She then gazed at the expression that was on Jack's face. From the looks of it, he wasn't happy to say the least.

And, this was the exact expression that he had on that night that she was abducted by Collins and his minions. And at this instance, she knew that this guy called Arthur was bound to suffer.

Katelyn on the other hand looked at Jack with a surprised expression. She then gazed at Johnathan before shifting her attention back to Jack. She was so shocked that she couldn't believe what was going on here.

eαglesnovel`c,om According to what she was expecting, Johnathan was just posing here. She thought that whatever Celine had said was just a joke and the person that was present here was jack in the end, the moment that she set her eyes on Jack, she immediately realized that what Celine had said was true.

As for Arthur, his expression was so rigid. He didn't know what was going on here anymore. He knew that there was Johnathan, but he didn't know that there were actually two Johnathans!

And, what was this situation where people would keep on barging into the office when he was here? And to say the least, other than the three bodyguards of his that he had called for, all the others were not here because they wanted to support him.

He could already tell from the way that Jack was looking around coldly that he was definitely not on his side. Not to mention the fact that he looked just like Johnathan.

Johnathan on the other hand could only face palm himself. What could he do? He had been trying to solve the situation here as fast as he could. Who would have expected that he would be coming in at such a moment.

In the end, he could only let out a sigh. He knew that from here, there was nothing that he could do other than stop Jack from killing Arthur. He knew how possessive Jack was with those that he loved.

He would never let go of those that dared to have some thoughts that would hurt the ones that he loved. Of course, that was only if he knew about them.

Marion was a good example. As for Collins and his lackeys, he knew that their punishment didn't end with their crippling. There was more that was coming soon, the time that Jack had given was almost expiring.

He stepped to the side and decided to let Jack take action. At the end of the day, the situation here involved him directly. Celine was his girlfriend while Katelyn was his mother-in-law to be.

As for why he would stop Jack from killing Arthur, he knew that Arthur's father would definitely make things hard for Jack. Although he didn't know Jack's full capabilities, at least he knew that the Jesda family was nothing to joke with.

That was especially so if the old man was involved in this. So, although he wouldn't mind seeing Arthur being killed, or he could have killed him by himself, the situation didn't allow it.

Jack who had arrived walked into the office step by step. He was furious, bit he didn't simply blow up and start shouting or attacking the first person that he didn't know in the room.

He was a person that knew that everything that happened had to have a reason. So, he wanted to know what was happening here first before taking any action.

As for the background of the person that dared to cause trouble here, Jack cared nonetheless about that. You are rich? You have a lot of influence? F*ck that! You dare lay your hand on my loved ones, then don't expect to walk away scot-free.

He walked towards Celine. Celine smiled and gave him a hug. She was happy that he was here, and the only way that she thought that she could express this was through the hug.

Jack patted her back and asked, "Are you okay?"

Celine smiled as she responded. "I'm okay." Then, she turned towards Johnathan and said in a low voice, "Thanks to Johnathan, that is."

Celine knew that Johnathan was afraid of Jack's beating. She could tell that from the last time when he was playing basketball. And, she could also see that Johnathan was currently flustered after Jack got here.

"Mmh, that's good to hear." Jack smiled. He then turned to Katelyn. Seeing the red palm mark that was on her cheek, Jack's anger soared. But still, he didn't show that much.

He asked Katelyn, "Aunt, are you okay?"

"Humph, it's only now that you are thinking of your aunt's wellbeing?" Katelyn snorted as she pretended to be angry. But, she was happy that Jack cared so much about her daughter.

And about the situation here, she didn't know what was going on anymore. But all the same, she decided to wait and see.

She was a businesswoman. Her eyes were sharp enough to tell that the situation here had changed the moment that Jack stepped into the room.

Even the person that had been beating up Arthur who couldn't resist had stayed silent. And just from what he said before about Celine being his sister-in-law, she could tell that she and Jack were related.

As for the real relationship, she wasn't sure about it. She had stayed with Anne and Celine for almost a decade. But, she had never seen Johnathan and neither had she heard Anne talking about him at all.

But, she knew that this wasn't the time to ask questions. She had to wait for the current problem to be solved first before she could finally ask for answers about why Jack and Johnathan looked similar.

Jack scratched his head with an awkward smile. But, he didn't say any word because he knew that she was simply teasing him.

He then turned to look at Arthur. He could remember him clearly. And from the same palm print that was on his cheek, Jack could relate what was happening.

From the information that he had gotten on the day that they had met, together with this guy's arrogant attitude, plus Johnathan's presence here, Jack could tell that this guy was in the wrong and was stopped by Johnathan. But, what really happened.

"Celine, what happened here?" Jack asked.

Celine looked at her mother before she began explaining to Jack what had happened.

As Jack was being told what was going on here, Arthur was getting even angrier. It was bad enough that Johnathan was treating him without any hint of respect.

But, what of this other person that had just come in? This person was literally ignoring him, as if he wasn't existing in the first place.

Then, the thing that made him grit his teeth in anger was the fact that he had hugged Celine. He wasn't a fool not to know that this was the person that Johnathan was saying that he was Celine's boyfriend.

While Celine was busy telling Jack what had happened here, Arthur couldn't hold it in anymore and glared at Johnathan. He asked, "Can you tell me why there are two of you and which one is fake?"

Johnathan looked at Arthur as if he was looking at a fool. It seemed that the time that he had spent outside 'enjoying' himself had really affected his brain.

"You want to know who he is? Then why don't you ask him who he is? I'm sure that he will give you a satisfactory answer." Johnathan snorted and replied.

For some reason, when he was told to go and ask Jack who he was, Arthur felt his scalp tingling. Although he was used to wasting much time on girls and some friends that he had made to hang out with them, he was still from the Jesda family.

So, he could read that even Johnathan wasn't willing to provoke this new 'Johnathan'. He himself was afraid of Johnathan as he wasn't as strong as him. So, what was he supposed to do when he faced someone that was even stronger than Johnathan?

The answer was clear. He was supposed to run! That's right, he had to make sure that he got out of here so that he could plan on how to deal with the current situation.

He looked at his three bodyguards. But, the three of them were on the floor, they were not moving. Arthur gritted his teeth because he knew that the three of them were obviously pretending to have lost their consciousness.

He had wanted them to stop Johnathan from coming after him. In the end, he could only think of another way out. And that was, to simply run towards the door and get the hell out of here!

He turned towards the door. But, he was stunned the moment that he saw that, somehow, Johnathan who was standing on the sides had somehow stood in front of him, with the door behind him.

His answer was simple, if you want to get out of here, you will have to get through me first.

Arthur's eyes reddened. He looked at Johnathan with his bloodshot eyes. He knew that the situation wasn't on his favor. So, he had to look for a way to slip away. But that didn't involve him fighting Johnathan.

He was about to speak when Jack spoke. "Arthur, why don't we go and talk somewhere private?"
