BXBX NOVEL Chapter 61 Get Lost
"What do you mean that I cannot enter? My son is here, are you trying to say that I can\'t see him?!"
Jack felt that the voice was somehow familiar. It was only after a moment that he suddenly remembered that that was Dalton\'s voice.
After all he had talked to him not long ago. But what made him frown was the fact that Dalton had somehow known where he was staying. If he remembered correctly, the only person that knew where he lived was Evans as well as Sabrina.
As for George, there was no need for him to be mentioned considering the fact that he was always low-key. In other words, Dalton might have gotten his information from either Evans or Sabrina.
But there was also another option, they had tracked his location the moment that he lost his focus about the phone after he received the advance reward from the system. With the current technology level, it wasn\'t hard for them to track his location as long as his call was connected .
According to what he could remember, he had forgotten that he was holding a phone in his hand for about 5 minutes. With the resources that Alfonso family possessed, it was not hard for them to find his location in just 2 minutes, let alone five.
But the thing that made him mostly unhappy was the fact, even after Dalton knew that Jack was not in a mood to meet with him, he still came.
Furthermore, he was not following the normal procedures that one should when he\'s going to visit another person.
Although he didn\'t like his father, he was still quite curious about what made him to come all the way from Crystal city, just to look for him.
He stepped out of the mansion and found that, the security guards were busy trying to prevent Dalton from entering the mansion. The moment that he got out of the mansion, the guards noticed him.
The commotion also stopped at this moment. Everyone present looked at Jack waiting for his decision. Jack was in no hurry at all. He walked step by step till he arrived in front of Dalton.
With a frown on his face, he asked, "What do you want?"
Dalton wasn\'t surprised by Jack\'s attitude towards him. He knew that this son of his didn\'t like him just like he didn\'t like him at all. But at this moment, the situation that they were in didn\'t allow him to care whether he liked his son or not, or vice versa.
He looked at Jack and stated calmly. "I am here to take you back home."
The moment that Jack heard these words, the frown on his face deepened further. "I\'m home already, what home are you talking about? Furthermore, why should I come with you?" He asked as he looked at Steve who was standing just behind Dalton.
Dalton didn\'t expect that Jack would ask such a question. According to what he had thought, Jack would readily accept to go back with him to the Alfonso mansion. But after thinking things through, considering what had happened from the moment that Jack stepped out of the family mansion, it was normal for him to behave in such a way.
After all, the treatment that he got from the family wasn\'t good at all. Furthermore, he was expelled from the family not long ago.
Additionally, his condition wasn\'t that pathetic to make him wish to go back with him. He could already see this from the conditions that Jack was living in.
Taking a deep breath, Dalton spoke, "I know that I had expelled you from the family. But I have changed my mind and I have decided to take you back. Just to show you my sincerity, I came here in person."
Dalton wasn\'t a family head for nothing. He was a person who thought forward and knew how to use the circumstances to his advantage. If he wasn\'t smart, Victor would not have handed over the position of the family head to him.
Of course, Jack was not a gullible child to believe such an obvious lie. He knew that there must be a reason behind why they wanted him to go back. So, he wanted to know the reason. But no matter what the reason was, he had already made up his mind not to go back to that place.
"I am not a little child that you can lie to that easily."Jack stated as he stared directly into Dalton\'s eyes. There was nothing to hide at this moment. He never liked this father of his and that will not change even now.
The respect that he was giving him currently was not throwing him out of his compound. After all, this can be considered trespassing into another person\'s property. If Jack called the police, they would stand on his side.
Dalton sighed and decided to tell part of the truth. "You are getting engaged today. So I am here to take you back home."
The moment that Jack heard these words, his expression shifted considerably. Slowly, anger began surfacing on his face as the rage that was already inside his heart was threatening to burst out again.
He looked at Dalton and asked curiously, "Who is that girl that I\'m getting engaged to?"
Dalton\'s expression eased the moment that he heard Jack\'s words. He slowly thought to himself, \'Looks like I should have said these words from the beginning. Who knew that it would have saved me a lot of time?\'
He chuckled as he said, "The lady that you are getting engaged to is not only beautiful but she comes from a bigger background, far bigger than our Alfonso family."
Dalton\'s words were filled with pride as well as eagerness and greed. He was proud that even the big families would still come to his family for marriage. As for eagerness and greed, that was for wealth and the benefits that he would get from having a relationship with such a big family.
Unfortunately, his dreams and hopes were shattered by Jack\'s next words. "You can go back and have Steve engaged to her. I don\'t care who she is but I hope that you won\'t interfere with my personal life. After all I am not a member of Alfonso family anymore."
Jack\'s words were cold. Even if the one that was getting engaged to him was the daughter of the president, there was no way that he was going to agree to that engagement, considering the fact that even the two of them had never met before. How could he, a man, accept such a choice to be made for him?
There was no way that he was going to agree to marry a person that he had never met before. Furthermore, considering that she was coming from a bigger family, it was obvious that she was proud. He wasn\'t ready to deal with a proud and arrogant wife.
"What did you just say?" Dalton seemed not to believe what his ears had heard.
"I said that I don\'t want to get engaged to anyone I don\'t know. Furthermore, this is my personal life and I don\'t want anyone unrelated to interfere with it. So, if you want to make a connection between your Alfonso family and some other big family, you better get one of your sons to do that because I\'m not one."Jack stated his words one by one.
Steve, who was standing just behind Dalton felt like he was going to burst from anger. Although he wanted to be the one that was going to be engaged to the lady, they had not chosen him. And for that, he was quite angry already.
Now that Jack kept on mentioning that he was to be engaged to the other party, his anger continued to soar the more that Jack spoke. It was like, Jack was having food while he on the other hand was starving. Instead of eating his food quietly, Jack kept on describing to him the taste of the food. How could he not be angry in such a situation?
But before he could erupt, Dalton spoke. "Your personal life? I have to be concerned about it and I will interfere because I am your father."
Dalton was just about to continue talking about how he was qualified to get Jack engaged to someone, when Jack interrupted him.
"What qualifications do you have to claim to be my father?! From childhood to this moment, I want to believe that this is the longest conversation that we have ever had. As a father, what did you do that proves that I am your son?! Mother and I have always gone through a lot in that mansion but you never cared."
"The moment that mother died, you never showed up during her funeral. Even after she died, I was left to survive alone in that mansion. Now that an opportunity has appeared, you are trying to tell me that you are my father?! Do you think that you are qualified?!"
Dalton wasn\'t the only person that was stunned by Jack\'s words. Nobody in the surrounding had expected that Jack could erupt in such a way. But even so, all the men around except for Dalton and Steve, showed a change in their expression.
After all, what was the use of trying to have a son if you are not ready to take care of him? Even if he wasn\'t ready to take care of him, he should have at least shown his support. Living a rough life in his own home, that was something that he could have prevented. But at the end of the day, he did nothing about it.
"You better get lost from here right now. I don\'t want to see your face in this compound ever again!" Before that one could speak again, Jack said these words as he turned around with the intention of going back into the mansion.
Dalton was not ready to let an opportunity for his future rise go away under his watch. He looked at the three bulky men behind him and signaled them to go and capture Jack.
There was no hesitation in their movements at all. The moment that they received the order, they immediately pounced towards Jack.
