Chapter 120 [Bonus ]You Guys Know Each Other?



Celine:[ We will be heading out tomorrow.]

Jack received Celine's reply after about five minutes from the time that he had ended the call. The answer made him stressed out a little. He wondered what he was supposed to do. After all, the two ladies expected his company on the same day.

After a long time of thinking, he decided to ask something else. He had to know the details so that he could make proper plans on how to handle things here.

Jack: ' How long would your vacation last?'

Celine: [About a week.]

Jack thought things through and decided that he was going to fulfill his promise by being with Wendy for two days first. Since he didn't want her to continue the issue about them being engaged, he would have to keep a distance.

But, keeping a distance didn't mean that he would be an enemy. At least, he had now learnt a lesson that he would have to think twice before accepting such an invitation from her.

On the other hand, he was going to accompany Celine for five days. Although this could be said to be favoritism, Jack would definitely accept it no matter what others said.

According to what he knew, he was more comfortable in Celine's presence than in Wendy's. Furthermore, he didn't want to have so many interactions with Wendy. Perhaps this would make her give up on him.

Additionally, he really wanted to spend time with Celine. Had she not invited him, he would have invited her once she was done with the duties back at the Eminent Beauty.

Jack: 'I think I will accompany you from the third day of your vacation. Just tell me your location at that time and I will come.'

Of course Celine wasn't pleased with the reply that she had received. But at least, although he had only accepted to accompany her from the third day, it was still good that he accepted. Furthermore, he would accompany her for five days.

Anyway, once she was offered one, she would think that two would have been better. And if she was offered two first, she would definitely claim that five would have been better. That was a human's nature. As long as it was something that they liked or loved, they would definitely yearn for more.

That was just the case with Celine at the moment. Had she been offered company for two days, she would definitely think that it was too little and request for five if possible.

Although she would have liked to have Jack's company during the whole vacation, she didn't want to force him to do that. So, she replied.

Celine:[Okay then. Just tell me when you land. I'll be sure to wait for your arrival. One more thing, you can give me the estimate time that you will arrive.]

Jack: 'It should be around six in the morning.'

Celine: [Got it.]

Jack wasted no time and contacted Gabriel to inform him that he was ready. Although he had already told him the previous day that they would be leaving tonight, he still thought that it would be good if he could give him the reminder.

After an early dinner at six, Denali drove Jack to the airport. The earlier he left, the earlier he would arrive at his destination. Although he was strong and his vitality was high due to the Professional Combatant Ability, that didn't mean that he would just tire himself out unreasonably.

When they got to the airport, it was already close to eight. According to the schedule that Gabriel had planned, they would be departing at 8 pm.

Jack bid Denali goodbye before getting into the jet. After everything was done, at eight o'clock, the plane took off.

Five hours later, Jack arrived at the airport in venture city. Gabriel and Jack left the handling of the plane to the management staff of the airport and decided to take a rest first.

After about two hours of rest, they got into the eurocopter and flew towards Inchoate city. And after four hours, they were there. When they arrived in Inchoate city, the sun had yet to rise.

Currently, it was already a quarter past six in the morning. He had already informed Celine that he would arrive around this hour. So, he was sure that she was waiting for him if there were no accidents.

And, he was looking forward to meeting her again. Just a few days being away but he had just missed her greatly. Even he himself wasn't sure why he missed her that much.

Although they had been chatting every night since he left, it was different when meeting and seeing each other.

The eurocopter flew and steadily landed on the helipad on top of the garage of the prince and princess palace.

Jack had already informed Celine that he was here through TM (TextMe). So, the moment that the plane landed, Celine appeared in his vision.

"Jack, you're here!" Celine called out excitedly as she smiled at him. Her charming smile really entranced him. Unconsciously, he smiled back.

Jack was just about to respond when he noticed something that made him surprised. Just behind Celine, there were two girls that he was familiar with, Wendy and Angy.

Seeing Jack's gaze was on the figures behind her, although Celine was dissatisfied, she thought that he was surprised that there was someone else that he didn't know on his property. So, she decided to introduce the two sides.

But upon seeing that the two sides were looking at each other in a strange manner, she couldn't help but ask, "You guys know each other?"

""You guys know each other?""

Celine wasn't the only one that asked that question as both Jack and the two girls asked the same question at the same time as her.

Jack directed the question at Celine, Celine to the two girls and the two girls to Jack. It was like at triangle.

Anyway, after this question, there was silence as none of the four knew what to say for a moment.

Gabriel who had just alighted had happened to find a scene where four people asked the same question at the same time. He could only say that he was lucky that he could be there at such a rare moment. Too bad, he hadn't recorded the scene.

But, looking at the scene, he wondered what kind of game was being played here. 'Could it be the scene where you are dating two girls at the same time but you don't know that they are friends?' Gabriel was amused.

So, instead of leaving, he decided to stay there and pretend to be checking the eurocopter, so that he could see what was going to happen next. He was curious about this thing that had just happened in front of him, when it normally happened in movies and telenovelas.

After looking at each other, the four began speaking again, answering the question that had been asked.

Jack: "We met in venture city."

Celine: "They are my best friends."

Wendy: "She is my best friend."

Angy: "She is my best friend."

Again, they spoke at the same time. And since they were expecting that the others would let them finish what they were saying, none of them stopped until they completed what they were saying.

There was another moment of silence as the four looked at each other, not sure what to say. On the other hand, Gabriel was already stifling his laughter. He really wanted to laugh out loud, but he was worried that he would disrupt the plot. So, he managed to hold back the laughter.

There was a silence that lasted for almost thirty seconds. Each of the four was waiting for someone to speak. And seeing that nobody was going to speak, they decided to speak.

Jack: "Okay, I'll…"

Celine: "It's like this…."

Wendy: "Let me explain…"

Angy: "This is how…"

Again, there was silence as each of them stopped mid sentence upon noticing that there was someone else that was speaking. In the end, they all stopped what they were saying, and decided to listen.

Gabriel couldn't hold it in any more and began chuckling. Although he had tried so much to hold on, he just couldn't. After all, this was just too much. Even in telenovelas, for four people to be in such a situation at the same time, he had never seen or heard of it.

Although they only said the same words at the beginning, the following actions were similar although the words were different. It was like their bodies were in sync but their brains thought of different words to say. Or, they only had different vocabularies.

"Hahahaha!"

Looking at the blushing girls and the awkward Jack, Gabriel completely burst out laughing while holding his stomach. He was no longer chuckling, but was really loud.

His laughter brought the four out of the deadlock where they didn't know what to say or do next. While the girls blushed even more furiously, Jack smiled awkwardly and gazed at Gabriel and complained, "Come on dude. What are you laughing at?"

Gabriel continued laughing a little while longer before he replied. But all the same, he was still having an urge to continue laughing.

"Haha, what can…I do? You guys…. are so funny." Gabriel replied. During the time that he'd spent with Jack, they had gotten along with each other. So, Gabriel could joke and be casual around Jack. The same could be applied to Jack

Jack shook his head and turned to the three girls and said, "Let's get to the mansion and have a talk."

The girls nodded and followed Jack down the roof of the garage following the usual staircase.
