Trial Of Love - Chapter 505

Jackson knocked on Jackie’s doors. “Jackie, can you let us in.”

Jackie did not hesitate and opened the door, she was surprised to see Cris with him. “Brother, Cris, what are you doing here?”

“Didn’t you invite him…”

Jackie laughed at it was his brother who invited the man first, “Of course, I’m sorry, I was…”

“Yeah, yeah, get down already. There are still so many things to do, don’t worry, I’ll be there to watch you, so will Cris.”

“Brother, Cris is a guess not a bodyguard.”

“Ha- don’t underestimate him. He’s better than any of our guards.”

Cris looked at Jackson and asked, “My price is quite expensive.”

“You b*stard, I clothe you and feed you, is that not enough.”

“Not really.”

Jackie laughed as she forgot about the reason she locked herself in the room.

Cris took the opportunity to keep the smile on the girl’s face, “But, for Miss Goldsmith, I’ll do it for free.”

“You b*stard, why is it expensive for me, but free for her.”

“She’s pretty, you’re ugly.”

In just a blink, Jackie witnesses how talented Cris is compared to their bodyguards. Her brother who is a well trained mixed martial artist was stopped by Cris using one hand.

“Don’t show off, or else you’ll be needing crutches.” Cris, let go of the man’s leg and was flying straight for his face.

“See Jackie, told you he’s better than our guards.” Jackson said as if what he did was for demonstration.

“Brother, don’t change the topic.”

“Whatever, let’s go down.”

…

Miller’s Residence.

Mr. Miller was surprised to see his wife and son arriving back when it’s only been a few minutes since they left. “Has all the preparation been done?”

“Hmm, we need to talk.” Mrs. Miller said as she thought things need to change before it’s too late. “Steven, Jackie is a lovely girl. But, are you really sure she is the right partner. Can she really be a good wife and mother to your children?”

“What’s going? Why are you suddenly talking like this?” Mr. Miller was confused by his wife suddenly discussing something they shouldn’t be.

“Mother, what are you trying to say?”

“Her friend is back, how sure are you she won’t leave you for her. She selfishly placed you second in her life, how sure are you she wouldn’t do that to your children.”

Steven could only sigh, he understood how his parents felt. But, after knowing the truth from Jackie, he couldn’t side with them and said, “Mother, trust me, everything Jackie did has a reason. Also, don’t judge herself so easily. You do not know her and you might regret everything…”

“Fine, but still, isn’t Brooklyn a better partner than Jackie. She has been by your side and…”

“Mother, please, I told you, I only love Jackie.”

Steven left his parents as he went to his room to get ready. He couldn’t bear to listen to what his parents had to say to him.

“Forget about it, only a miracle can change our son’s mind.”

“But still, I hope he sees that the girl is much better than Jackie.”

“Stop that, you aren’t like that. Why are you suddenly being so judgemental.”

“You, you sound like our son.”

“I raised him, of course I’ll question your action too.”

Mrs. Miller was annoyed, thinking his own husband would take side with his son. But still, she couldn’t help be upset with the girl for what she did. But, after knowing the reason was because Alexis said something back about the girl’s friend. She felt guilty, but it was too late and she had already said all those words in front of Jackie.

“We better get ready, you’ve already ruined your son’s mood.”

Mrs. Miller said nothing and followed her husband to their room.

Meanwhile, back in the Goldsmith’s Residence…

Jackie has completed all the necessary preparation, his brother and Cris have already gotten changed and ready as well.

“Cris, I’ll leave for now. Watch over my sister.”

“Where are you going?”

“You’ll see.”

Cris ignored the man and went to look for Jackie instead. However, as he was on his way, a snake approached him.

“Excuse, I heard your name is Cris.” Alexis flirty talked to Cris as she smiled and tried her best to seduce the man.

“Yes, how can I help you?” Cris didn’t really wish to speak to the girl, but she can’t be rude since the girl is soon to be a part of his friend’s family.

“My name is Alexis, I was wondering if you’re free tomorrow to have some coffee.”

“Sorry, I’m working right now and don’t have time to talk to you.”

“Wait, what do you mean working?” Alexis was dumbfounded as she expected the man to be a wealthy heir.

“Jackson, he asked me to watch over his sister in case any of you snakes will bite her.”

Alexis was left speechless and did not expect such rude and harsh words to be said to her. She wishes to say something back but instead she bottled up the anger she felt. She wants to win the man’s heart and because she acted irresponsible early, the man sees her as an enemy.

Cris walked away from the girl and sighs, ‘I hope she not the girl that b*stard is planning to set me up with.’

Jackie notices Cris with such a troubling expression, she notices Alexis who suddenly steps out as well. She went to him and said, “Don’t’ worry, my best friend is better than these snakes.”

“Ha- Jackie, do you really see me as a perfect fit for my best friend.”

“Believe it or not, remember how I said you looked familiar.”

“Hmm,” Cris nodded as he recalled the event.

“Strangely, it was not because of a gathering or anything, but because of my best friend.”

“What do you mean?”

“Don’t laugh or be mad, I thought, you were someone whom my best friend is acquainted with and she introduced you to me. But, after confirming with her, she doesn’t know you as well.”

“Haha, you almost scared me there Jackie.”

“Don’t worry, you won’t be acquainted with my friend as well. She hardly shows herself to society anyways.”

“Seems like the two of us will get along.”

“Now that you mentioned that, the two of you will end up getting along. You too enjoy running away from your family and she does as well.”

Cris thought about it and he recalls another person who does like doing the same thing. ‘I wonder how the little princess is doing?’

“Cris, is something wrong?”

“Nah, I just recall that I also know someone who does what I do.”

“Really, is the person a girl or a boy.”

“A girl.”

“Wow, she and my best friend should meet each other. Maybe, they’ll be able to help each other with their problem.”

Cris thought about it and the chances for them to meet is not impossible, “Hmm, now that you put it that way, I’ll try to contact my friend as well. Maybe, they will get along with each other”

“Sure, I’ll tell my friend as well. But, now that you’re here, I hope she’ll prefer you than your friend.”

“Why?”

Jackie only smiled as she left the man and headed to her room…

‘What could she probably mean?’
