"Wait Jack."

Jack halted for a moment and said, "You got the wrong person. I don't know you and I'm not from the Alfonso family. Furthermore, I didn't agree to the engagement. So, I hope you can forget about what happened two days ago."

"You don't know me Jack? Or is it that you're pretending that you don't know me?" Feeling frustrated from how Jack was treating her, Wendy shouted.

Jack looked at her again and asked, "Was I supposed to know you before?" According to his memories, there was absolutely nothing that he could remember about this lady. Not her name, voice, eyes, figure, nothing about her was imprinted in his mind at all.

Wendy's eyes reddened the moment that she saw that Jack was serious about it. She bit her lips and stared into his eyes. Jack didn't shy from her gaze at all and waited for her response.

"We met a year ago. I was just about to be killed in an accident if you hadn't pulled me back and saved me." Wendy said these words with hope shining in her eyes, hoping that Jack would remember her if it was true that he'd forgotten about her.

Jack began recalling all the memories from the previous year. Now that his mind had been strengthened, he could remember a lot of things that had happened in the past. Although they were not as clear as the new memories as the ones that he'd gotten since he became strong, his ability was good nonetheless.

After recalling, he couldn't find any case where he saved someone. No matter what he thought about, he had never saved anyone from an accident.

He shook his head as he replied, "I'm sorry lady. But, maybe you mistook me with someone else. After all, I don't remember saving anyone till this day."

That was the fact. Jack had never been in a situation where he was made to save a person. Although if he could save someone currently he would, that didn't mean that he could save everyone.

Upon hearing Jack's denial, Wendy almost burst into tears at that moment. She had been in love with Jack ever since she remembered him saving her.

On that day that she had been saved, she was too shocked to react by searching for Jack. In the end, she only came back to Crystal city after a month and began looking for Jack.

Then, after over three weeks of effort, she finally managed to find him as his blue eyes and silver hair were unique. Although she had barely seen his face at that time as she was in a daze, she could still remember that he was handsome.

After finding Jack, she decided not to approach him. She began thinking of a way to thank him when she suddenly had an idea. She decided that she would marry him to thank him.

Although she was thanking him for saving her life, she was also a little selfish as she had already fallen in love with Jack.

After going back to the capital, she began planning on how to let her grandpa know that she wanted to marry Jack. She had seen that he wasn't someone rich at all. And to her family, they cared the most about the background of the one that married into their family.

So, she wasn't sure how she could convince her grandfather to allow her to marry Jack. In the end, she remained like that, planning till two weeks ago.

The more time passed, the more she continued loving him and she would sometimes sneak to Crystal city just to see him. Two weeks ago, she couldn't help it but ask her grandfather.

Just like she had expected, her grandfather had refused. In return, she got angry at him and claimed that if not Jack, she definitely wouldn't marry anyone else and would stay like that.

Feeling helpless, Alton investigated Jack. After finding his information, other than the fact that his background was low, there was not a problem with him. And that was the exact reason as to why he allowed the engagement.

Now, they were engaged and the fiancé that she had been looking forward to meeting and talking to, waiting for their marriage was looking at her like a stranger. He couldn't remember anything about her at all.

This made her heart both sad and regretful. She wished that she should have met with Jack during the times that she had been coming to Crystal city. In that way, they could have gotten familiar with each other in advance.

But, now wasn't too late as their marriage was going to be in a year a two months from now. She still had a whole year to make him take her as his fiancée.

As for the case where he was claiming that he was no longer a member of Alfonso family, she knew that her grandfather wouldn't agree to the case where the engagement that he himself had proposed was broken.

With his character, he would definitely have Jack marry her even if they had to tie him with ropes on the wedding day so that he wouldn't run away.

As she thought of this, determination surged through her eyes as she at Jack's departing figure. 'I'll make sure that you'll love me just like how I love you. Since we're engaged already, there's no way that the engagement will be broken!'please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Seeing that Jack was leaving, Angy was the first one to approach Wendy. She looked at Wendy's determined eyes and asked curiously, "What have the two of you been talking about?"

Wendy looked at her and said with some hints of dissatisfaction, "If we wanted you to know, would we have moved far from you?"

Angy: "…."

Collins on the other hand had been observing the two from the moment that they walked into the distance. He had been observing their body movements as well.

From the way that he could see it, it seemed that Jack was the one that was forcing Wendy. Wendy had tried making him give up on the issue of their engagement but Jack became aggressive.

Although they were a distance away, the underground parking lot was well lit. As a result, he could still make out some of the facial expressions as long as they were major.

He had seen the way that Wendy became saddened and when she was about to cry. Then, her determination.

Everything was well and 'correctly' translated to him and there was nothing to hide from him! The determination that Wendy had shown when she clenched her fists, mmh, it should be that she was determined to destroy the engagement.

And, from the fact that she was keeping this from them, it was obvious that she didn't want them to interfere. But, he definitely would interfere and make sure that her dream was fulfilled. He would make sure that Jack gave up on her! But, that would be done in secret as well.

…..

Neither Jack nor Wendy had no idea about what Collins was planning. Had they known, Jack would surely have nodded in appreciation and encouraged him, while Wendy would have definitely wanted to kill him.

…..

Later that evening…

The arena was full. The crowd here today was definitely higher than the one that was there the previous day. Today was when there was going to be the finals. So, they had to make sure that they watched it.

On the other hand, there were many bosses that had come here on this day that hadn't been there the previous day. And just like the spectating crowd, these bosses liked watching the thrilling matches and that could only be found during the finals.

Jack was already in the locker room. On this day, he'd come with Edwin. Edwin had picked him up and Jack didn't refuse him and came with him in Edwin's car.

In the locker room, there were only eight people. There was the guy called scarred tiger, the one that had been sent by Austin to cause trouble for Jack to ensure that Jack wouldn't win. There was the defending champion, mad lion, who wasn't muscular as Jack had expected but a man with moderate muscles, was also here. Vulture was here too and Gibby were here as well.

In other words, the defending champion, the runner up and the second runner up of the previous championship were here today. Then, Jack and three others that had qualified for the quarter finals were present.

Each and everyone in the room was having their own space, not disturbing the other. But even so, Jack could feel the gazes that were landing on him. What's more, Jack could feel a gaze that had a faint killing intent directed at him.

There was no need for him to guessed who it was that was looking at him considering that scarred tiger still had a grudge against him.

But, Jack ignored it as he wasn't in the mood to waste his time on someone like him. But, once they met in the ring, he would surely make sure that the killing intent was dispersed into a thin air using his fists.

The first round, in the quarter finals, scarred tiger, Gibby and the other three would have to fight for a single spot into the semi finals. Jack wasn't sure how that round was going to be but, he was sure that they must have a plan for it already.

pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ In the semi finals, the winner between the five, Jack, mad lion and vulture and ten runner up would fight for the spot into the finals.

The two winners would then fight and determine the winner between them. And just like that, the championship would be over.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the second night of July's ultimate championship. I, as the host tonight can tell you that I'm excited and anticipating for the matches tonight. But, although I'm the referee, I'll just watch the match from out of the ring. I hope you don't blame me as the matches are so thrilling in that they scare me. But, let's put all that aside and let the quarter finals begin!"
