Chapter 823 Knowing Nothing
Chapter 823 Knowing Nothing
Brian handed the calligraphy teacher's business card to Jack, but he had to remind Jack. He was a
person whose temperament was still unstable and immature, and had to be constantly admonished
and reminded at all times.
"I'll go, I'll definitely go. Study is a good thing, of course I'll be there."
Jack's heart had gone crazy, but he just didn't dare to resist, didn't dare to say a word back to Brian.
Jack had to follow Brian's arrangement.
He went straight home for dinner after work.
He told his family to have dinner ready before he got home, for he had to eat right away when he got
home or it would be too late.
"Eat slowly, you'll choke if you eat so fast."
At the table, Maria reminded Jack as he was wolfing down.
"It'll be too late if I eat slowly."
In reply, Jack chewed his food.
"What's so important that you have to hurry, I never saw you being active when you were in school."
Maria couldn't help but spit, if he studied hard, he would be more capable than Brian.
"Mom, you're right. I'm going to school, and I'll go to my teacher's after dinner and start with elementary
knowledge."
Jack was mischievous and naughty.
"What kind of schooling?"
Maria took it seriously.
"Calligraphy, Brian arranged it, he will be angry with me if I refuse."
Jack was helpless about that.
"What do you mean?"
Thomas asked seriously, only because Jack mentioned Brian, making him immediately sensitive.
"I am going to learn calligraphy, Brian arranged for me to learn calligraphy, but I don’t know why."
As soon as Jack's words left, he suddenly looked at Felix pitifully.
"Grandpa, I don't want to stay with him anymore, I want to go to the branch."
Jack took Felix as a savior and begged bitterly.
He was tired of being tied up around Brian, and he wanted to go to the branch, so that he could free
and have beautiful women with him.
"This is between you, figure it out for yourselves."
Felix refused, he couldn't interfere with it.
And he knew who the calligraphy teacher was, and who would not just teach Jack calligraphy.
It seems that Brian had made up his mind to drop the Bennet Group.
"Don't leave after dinner. Tell me if you have done something wrong."
Thomas frowned as he ordered. He said euphemistically, wanting Jack to be more specific as a way to
analyze Brian's intentions.
"I have no time to chat with you, I have to go now." NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
With that, Jack put down his chopsticks and got up, then said to his mother.
"Mom, make dinner earlier tomorrow, I'm not even full."
After speaking, Jack left in a hurry. Thomas frowned more and more deeply.
Jack was gone for five hours, and by the time he returned, it was after eleven o'clock at night.
"Did it take so long to learn calligraphy?"
Just as he got out of the car, Jack heard his father's voice.
It was only when he looked back that he saw his father right behind him.
"Calligraphy took three hours, I was hungry, so I have dinner with a friend after that."
Jack answered truthfully, three hours of calligraphy had driven him crazy, if he had been studying for
five hours, he might have died in the calligraphy class.
"Come here and I'll talk to you."
Thomas said and turned towards the pavilion, followed by Jack's disgruntled protest.
"Don't be so persistent, okay? Have you been waiting to have a chat with me? Dad, I'm sleepy, I should
go to bed. If I am late tomorrow, I will be in trouble."
"Dad, can we talk tomorrow? I'll be home early tomorrow."
"It's a deal, we'll talk tomorrow."
Jack did not want to talk, but as he finished his words, he had been int he pavilion.
"Forget it, just talk."
Jack sat down directly like a prisoner waiting to be sentenced with no room for resistance.
"What exactly is your position at the company?"
Thomas skipped over all the useless gossip and went straight to the point.
"I don't know."
Jack replied blandly.
"You don't know? You don't even know your own position. Which department, which office, which rank,
you don't know all these?"
Thomas had anger mixed in his tone, thinking that Jack did not want to talk to him, so he used this way
to protest.
"I really don't know, I'm not under any department, I'm under the direct supervision of Brian now. My
office is right next to Albert's office, and there's no departmental logo on the office door. There isn't
even a name tag in the office, so how do you think I know what position I am in."
Jack spoke out his status, and it was the first time he had mentioned his status at the company to his
father.
Thomas’ eyebrows furrowed deeper. He hadn't expected his son to have no position at all, and it was
strange that his office was on the 30th floor.
"What are you primarily involved in? You should know this, right?"
Thomas continued to ask.
"I know, but it's rather miscellaneous. I have done a lot of things of many departments, like secretary's
job, assistant's job, and I even ran errands."
"Hey ...... handyman, I am just a handyman. I'll go wherever there's a shortage."
Jack found the most appropriate word to describe his position in the Bennet Group, but he neglected to
mention that the only person who gave orders to him was Brian, and everyone else respected him.
"Handyman?"
Thomas's voice went cold, and his eyes lit up with fire, only Jack didn't care about it.
"Yeah. Dad, do you know what kind of work I'm doing now? Brian told me to go through all the previous
cooperation with other companies and work on a plan. I did it many times, but he was just not
satisfied."
Jack told his position and used an exaggerated rhetorical way to describe his current helplessness. He
had only submitted his plan once since his return, and not many times as he claimed.
But without exaggeration, who would pity him? Who would see his dedication and hard work?
"I'm really going crazy right now. Do you know, Dad, how much I miss the old days."
"Hey ...... I regret most coming back."
After Jack finished speaking, he walked away, leaving Thomas alone in the pavilion with anger.
One thing Thomas had been thinking about all this time was what Jack's return foreshadowed.
At first, he thought that Brian was going to value Jack, thinking that he was going to hand over the
power to Jack because of Winnie. However, now it seemed that he had thought too much. Brian did not
value Jack, but just kept Jack around.
It looked like promotion, but it was devolution.
Jack had nowhere to show off his talent even if he had it under Brian's eyes. Brian was clearly
suppressing Jack, not allowing him to surpass himself.
Thomas knew what he should do from now on, and knew that he couldn't have any illusions about
Brian.
The situation on Leo was relatively stable, after a full body check, there was no major head injury, the
most serious injury was still the fracture of his lower leg. The fracture needed to recuperate for a long
time, during this period, he handed over the company to his father to manage, and he himself stayed in
the hospital without worry.
Despite the broken calf, despite the pain that accompanied it, he had a sense of bliss from the disaster.
From Leo's hospitalization to now, Emily had been with him in the hospital. She rushed back to the
hospital every day after going home to shower and change clothes, no matter how others persuaded
her to go home, she didn't listen to them.
"Aren't you afraid to get sick?"
Daenerys was at the hospital with Emily and Leo at this time.
"I ate at normal times every day, went to bed whenever I was sleepy, and didn't stay up late at night. I
feel more grounded than even living at home."
Emily was not willing to leave Leo alone in the hospital, instead of letting her worry, it was better to stay
with Leo.
"You haven't thrown up in the last two days and you look better, is it the power of love?"
Daenerys teased Emily, but it was true that her condition had improved.
"Maybe."
Emily wasn't sure if it was the power of love, for she had never heard that love could cure pregnancy
sickness.
"It must be related."
Daenerys smiled, enviously.
Look at the happiness all over Daenerys's face now, it was sure the power of love.
"Maybe, not only have I not thrown up in the past two days, but I've been eating extra well. I've eaten
three meals so far today, and I feel like I'll be hungry again in a little while."
Emily even doubted whether she truly cared about Leo. Leo was still lying there in pain but she had
increased her appetite.
In this case, she felt sorry for Leo.
"Eat as much as you can, I'll raise you in the future, not to mention three meals, I can afford to raise
you even if you eat ten meals a day."
Leo said happily.
"Then I will be a pig, I won't eat ten meals."
Emily gave Leo a blank look, but it was really possible for her to eat ten meals if she was hungry all the
time.
"Hahahaha ......"
Daenerys couldn't help but smile. She was relieved to see them together.
"When do you plan to get married?"
Daenerys changed the subject.
This question from Daenerys caused Emily to raise the corners of her mouth uncontrollably.
"We'll get married when Leo discharges from the hospital, but we will wait for Winnie to hold wedding
together."
Emily couldn't control her excitement at the thought of getting married, after that, this man belonged to
her and she belonged to Leo.
"Well, Winwin is a conundrum."
Speaking of Winnie, Daenerys was infinitely emotional and wondered how she could help to make her
a little happier soon.
Emily looked at Leo, feeling that being too happy was a blow to Winnie.
So she hurriedly put away her smile.
"What can we do? And she refused our help."
