Chapter 129 Squabble
Jack and the three girls waited outside the door for almost an hour before a doctor came and went into the ward. After about five minutes, he came out and looked at Angy who\'s clothes still had blood on them.r
He was just about to ask a question when he gazed at Jack deeply. After a while, he asked, "Is that your twin brother inside there?"r
Jack was once again dumbfounded by the question. What the heck?! Does that mean that what Angy was saying was actually true? There was actually another person that looked like him inside the ward?r
Now, his curiosity of that person was peaked. He wanted to know about this person. One had to know that it was hard to find someone that looks like you in the world.r
Although there was always someone\'s lookalike, for that person to look like him, to the extend that they thought that they were actually twins, then that person must be really more than just a lookalike.r
All the same, he still responded, "Not at all. I don\'t even know him."r
Hearing Jack\'s answer, the doctor was stunned. Then, he thought that maybe Jack was simply messing with him for asking the obvious, or he had a conflict with his brother. But at this moment, he leaned towards the second option considering Jack\'s serious expression.r
"Young man, you two are brothers. Even if you have a conflict, you should resolve it as soon as possible. Anyway, I can see that you still care about him and that is why you are here to see him." The doctor smiled and said.r
Jack: "…"r
Before he could even say a word, the doctor spoke once again, "You can go and see him. After that, you can ask a nurse to bring you to my office, there are a few questions that I need to ask you guys about, especially young lady." As he said these last words, his gaze landed on Angy.r
Immediately after saying his piece, the doctor left, not giving Jack a chance to say a word or ask a question. r
Seeing that the doctor had left, Angy was the first one to rush towards the ward, she wanted to make sure that what she saw was true. Wendy followed behind her and Celine and Jack entered last respectively.r
When Jack got into the ward, he was full of curiosity. But the moment that his gaze landed on the young man on the bed, his movements froze.r
He wasn\'t the only one with such a reaction as both Wendy and Celine stopped, not making any movements for a long while.r
On the other hand, Angy looked at the young man on the bed before looking at Jack. Just to make sure that she wasn\'t hallucinating, she made sure to look at the two of them at least ten times each.r
At this trice, two blue eyes met with each other and they locked onto the other. The youth that was on the bed immediately sat up as he gazed at Jack. On the other hand, Jack gazed back at him.r
In the eyes of the two, confusion was clear as none of them could understand why and how that person looked like themselves.r
Jack was now completely suspicious of this person and the curiosity that had been growing in his heart grew even further. He had always considered his silver hair and blue eyes a unique pair.r
As long as he could remember, he had never seen anyone with silver hair other than his mother. As for blue eyes, there were several people with them. But, what he knew was that they didn\'t have silver hair. And that was the reason as to why he paired the two, just to make his eyes special.r
But now, he had to reevaluate things as the youth on the bed had exactly the same features as him. He had silver hair, blue eyes, same physique. As for the face, he couldn\'t prove if they looked the same as there were several bandages on his face.r
But all the same, he could see something like the nose bridge that looked just like his. The way that his body was, was the exact replica of the other.r
But, there was still a difference between the two of them. Jack had the air of a cold and indifferent person, to those that he wasn\'t familiar to of course. On the other hand, the youth had a domineering aura, as if he was someone that was used to being at the top.r
"Who are you?!" The two of them asked each other, pointing a finger forward.r
Their words brought back the three ladies from their stupor. Processing the words that the two of them had asked, they could immediately tell that the two of them didn\'t know each other. They were strangers.r
But, the funny thing to the three ladies was the fact that they could see two people who looked like the other, having a voice that sounded like the other, with a minor difference, pointing a finger at each other, as of they were accusing the other.r
"I\'m Jack." Jack replied.r
"I\'m Johnathan." At the same time, the youth replied.r
Silence then reigned in the room for a while as nobody spoke. On the other hand, it was as if the three girls had an epiphany. They could finally tell who the real Jack was.r
They were sure that if the two were placed in front of the other and they wore the same outfits, it would be like a person looking at his image in the mirror.r
The silence didn\'t last for long though. Jack asked, "What are you doing here?"r
On the other hand, Johnathan responded, "What do you mean by what am I doing here? It\'s not like I\'m prohibited from moving around, right?"r
Jack took a deep breath. He knew that this wasn\'t the right question to ask. All the same, he wondered why this person was here. And why was he all injured?r
"Why are you injured like that? Got into a fight?" Jack asked again. For the first time, Jack took the initiative to get to know another man.r
"It\'s because of you!" Johnathan said begrudgingly.r
"Eh? Me? How\'s that caused by me? This is the first time that we are meeting. How can I cause you to be this injured?" Jack was completely stunned, not knowing what to do.r
"Someone attacked me, claiming that I\'m Jack. Like hell I\'m Jack! I\'m Johnathan for f*ck\'s sake!" Johnathan cursed at the thought of how he ended in such a miserable state due to a simple misunderstanding.r
"How\'s that my fault?! I never told you to look like me!" Jack retorted. How could he simply accept the blame?r
"You are the one that looks like me! I\'m older than you! You were born after me after all!" Johnathan pointed at Jack as he talked back fiercely.r
"How are you older than me? You don\'t know about me at all. No, wait a moment, since my mind is more mature to think of such a thing, I believe that I\'m older than you. So, you looked like me."r
As the girls watched as the two youths behaved like kids, arguing about some childish things, they had an urge to laugh. But, they held it in.r
But, they were forced to have solemn expressions on their faces in the next moment because of what they heard. Johnathan was mistaken to be Jack and was attacked?r
Didn\'t that mean that had Johnathan not been present, it would have been Jack who would have been on the bed now? Furthermore, perhaps he might have been in a worse condition as none of them could guarantee that he could have performed better than Johnathan.r
As they thought of this, they were scared out of their wits.r
It was also after a period of mindless arguing that Jack caught onto something. His gaze turned cold as he asked, "Did you just say that someone wanted me dead?"r
Jonathan didn\'t want to continue arguing with Jack. But, there was no way that he was going to give up. So, he was relieved that Jack had changed the topic. And, he was more than happy to cooperate.r
"What else did you expect? See? I\'m now all injured because of you. So, you will have to compensate me." Johnathan replied. The pain that he was feeling had already reduced drastically. Now, he could at least move his limbs in small motions as long as he didn\'t apply too much force.r
"Someone wants to kill me? That\'s new. I don\'t think that I have an enemy that I have offended to the extend that they will want me dead. But, who the f*ck is it?!" As Jack asked these questions, the air around him seemed to freeze as killing intent surged into the air.r
The girls were scared and were forced to take a few steps away from Jack. On the other hand, Johnathan looked at Jack with a surprised expression. \'That aura, could it be?\' He thought to himself.r
Remembering that there were other people around him, Jack calmed down and looked at Johnathan and asked, "Do you have anything that can prove that person\'s identity?"r
Johnathan was brought out of his thoughts. In response to Jack\'s question, he pointed at the cabinet beside his bed and said, "I assume that my things are In there. If so, there should be a phone there with a screen of 6".r
Jack raised his brows a little. Then, he went forward and opened the cabinet. He found that there were two phones and a wallet in there. He picked the phone that had a screen that was 6".r
He pressed the power button and activated the screen. He tried looking into it only to see that he still needed to unlock it with a password.r
Looking at Johnathan, he said, "I don\'t know the password."r
"How\'s that my problem?" Johnathan shrugged his shoulders and replied.r
Jack was displeased but there was nothing that he could do. It was already good that he could get something that could lead him to the person behind the incident. r
He thought for a moment and decided that he would have Denali hack into this thing. With that thought in mind, he placed the phone in his trouser pocket.r
"By the way, what\'s your mother\'s name?" Johnathan asked.r
Not knowing why he was asking, Jack still replied, "Anne. Is there a problem?"r
"What did you just say?!" Johnathan got onto his feet, completely ignoring that he was still having a needle in the vein on his hand.r
