Jack, Faith and Celine walked out of the office together before heading downstairs. Upon seeing Jack who was walking with the two top beauties with the highest authority in the company, the employees were surprised and wondered what his background was.

Everyone here knew that Celine's background wasn't something small. As the workers here, they definitely knew about that. For Jack, the only man that they had seen closer to Celine, to be here and chat with her so casually, he must be from a big background, right?

Jack and the two ladies ignored the looks and whispers of the employees as they walked out of the building.

They didn't go far from the company as there was a small restaurant closer to the company. It was only a twenty minutes walk away. Having already lived a life where he would eat in such a small stall to save money, Jack saw no problem with eating here.

"Are you sure that the food here is okay?" Faith asked doubtfully.

Jack smiled and said, "You shouldn't doubt these people. Although they run small businesses, it's not that they're dirty, it's just that they lack enough capital to start bigger businesses."

"So, you don't need to worry. They maintain high hygiene. It's just that it looks simple due to the lack of the expensive tables and decorations."

Jack's words made the two ladies nod as they sat down. Celine looked at Jack and asked, "You're talking as of you've already experienced eating in this kind of stalls?"

"Yeah, most of the time, as long as I wasn't eating at home, I would definitely be visiting the stalls to get my meals. They're good even though they're not expensive." Jack affirmed.

Celine's impression of Jack changed once again. The way that he was spending money had made her think that he was a prodigal. But, looking at his simple clothes and where they were going to have their lunch, plus the fact that Jack seemed used to being here, she dumped that thought.

They soon ordered the meal. Well, it was Jack who did that as he knew the menu of the food that was sold in these kinds of stalls. The two ladies had been living a different life, and as a result, this was going to be their first experience.

They ate simple fried rice with a few pieces of pork. The total price of the food after they were done was only $700 per person. Only Jack ate three bowls alone. In total, it cost them $3,500 that was then paid by Celine.

"Jack, what you said was true. The food was really tasty. I wanted to eat more but, I just can't finish a second bowl, so, there's no need for me to order it only to leave it behind, that'll be a waste." Celine shook her head in the end.

"Jack, you really have a big appetite. How comes I have never noticed it?" Faith asked as she walked beside Celine.

"How can you know about my appetite when we haven't had meals together. But worry not, maybe in the future, you'll know the level of my appetite." Jack said.

They continued walking towards the company while chatting. It was during these chats that Faith understood Jack's character.

Although he was walking alongside two beauties, his gaze was only full of sincere appreciation and not undisguised lust.

Additionally, he was an honest man, not that much scheming. As for whether this was his true character or just a façade, she would need to observe more.

They were just about to cross a street when Jack's expression changed. A cold smile appeared at the corner of his lips. Then, he whispered to Faith's ears.

"Don't worry about us, we will be back by evening. There's no need to panic, I'm going to deal with the origin of the problem." His words were only heard by Faith.

"Huh?" Faith was obviously confused by Jack's words. She was just about to ask what he was meaning when suddenly, a van stopped next to them.

Before she could react, Jack pushed her to the side as several bulky men got out of the van hurriedly and captured Celine and Jack, pulled them into the van before it sped away, leaving the flabbergasted and panicked Faith.

She had just been pushed away by Jack and she had no time to react by the time that they two were taken away. Since she was a distance away from the two, she was obviously ignored by the kidnappers.

Faith hurriedly took out her phone and began dialing the emergency number for the police, 123. But, she was so nervous and was panicking in that the phone fell on the ground before the screen cracked.

She hurriedly picked it up only to notice that the screen had turned black and cracks filled it. She was surprised and looked down, only to notice that there was actually a stone with a sharp edge on the ground.

And, coincidentally or not, the phone had dropped directly on it and the stone actually damaged the phone's screen. She tried tapping on it only to find that it was no longer working.

She got scared at this moment that she forgot what Jack had told her a moment ago. She began blaming herself for being careless at the moment. She had completely ignored replacing her cheap phone because she was busy.

Had she been having a better phone, it surely wouldn't have been destroyed the moment that it hit the floor.please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Looking around, she found that there was a man passing by. She hurriedly stopped him and asked for his phone to make a call to the police.

Although the man was doubtful, seeing Faith's panicked and official dressing, he gave her the phone. Faith hurriedly thanked him before calling the police….

…..

Inside the van…

Jack held Celine in his arms, feeling the softness of her body on his. When they were kidnapping them, Jack had purposely placed himself before the group. So, they had taken him first before they pulled Celine into the van. They had already confiscated their phones and switched them off.

Although Jack wasn't expecting that the guys that were loitering around the Eminent Beauty company actually had the plan of kidnapping her, he had noticed the van when it approached them.

ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) He had previously told Haman that he had already returned, so, he could recall his men back. Who knew that this would happen as soon as Haman stopped interfering?

When they got into the van, he pulled Celine into his arms and protected her. Since he had let the kidnapping happen, he was going to make sure that nobody treated her badly.

Celine was scared at this moment. She had never thought that in such a small city, there would be someone that would dare to kidnap her.

But, feeling Jack's arms around her, she found herself calming down. Although she felt that it was quite weird that he was hugging her at the moment, she was happy that he was willing to protect her even in such a situation.

In the end, she could only blush at the thought of how close they were to each other. Although they had already been this close when dancing, this was actually a different scenario.

"Don't worry. I will deal with this problem from the source. Be assured, nobody is going to hurt you." Jack whispered into Celine's ears.

Jack's words immediately made Celine's racing heart to calm down. She tried getting out of his embrace, but Jack didn't allow that at all. The reason being that, he enjoyed the sensation of…. Ahem, he wanted to protect her from being taken advantage of by the kidnappers.

Upon noticing that Jack had no intention of letting her go, Celine could only remain in his arms, enjoying his protection. She was sure that if this was another person other than Jack that was holding her, she would have surely made sure to keep a distance. As for Jack, it was instinctive, she felt like she belonged in his arms.

In total, there were six kidnappers plus the driver. Added to Jack and Celine, there was a total of eight people.

Looking at the two of them who were seated there without causing any trouble or screaming for help, the kidnappers felt pleased.

They had been instructed to ensure that they did not harm the lady in any way. And seeing that she was not troublesome and was instead 'cooperative', they were satisfied.

But, they were obviously not pleased with seeing Jack holding a beauty in his arms in front of them. So, they tried provoking him, to see if he would cause trouble so that they could at least beat him up.

"Look at that kid, he's such a coward."

"Right, he's been kidnapped but he doesn't even try fighting back."

"What a waste of a handsome face. Not even trying to show off in front of the beauty."

"You guys, what nonsense are you talking about? What's the use of him acting bravely when he can simply sit there and embrace a beauty. You can only look from the side."

Kidnappers: "…."

They really had nothing to say. Although they wanted to retort, they found that there was nothing that they could say as that was the truth.

But, they dared not to make the two who were not causing trouble to start it. They could just complete the mission first.

Jack on the other hand simply sneered as he thought to himself, 'Kidnapped? More like bringing a tiger into a sheep's pen.'

Silence reigned in the van as it drove towards the outskirts of the city.
