King's Back

Chapter 54 Aiden Don

The expression of Harry’s father tightened, but to his surprise, he soon found that his leg didn’t hurt anymore.

What’s more, the swollen spot gradually disappeared as Jackson kept rubbing it.

Harry looked at Jackson surprisingly. He didn’t know that Jackson was good at this. And it seemed that Jackson was more adept and professional than an orthopedist.

“Oh, my leg…doesn’t hurt anymore. Jackson, thank you, thank you so much!”

“Uncle, I already set the bones in your leg right, but don’t get out of bed for two days and don’t exert any force in it. It would be helpful to drink some pork bone soup. You will fully recover in less than a month.”

Harry’s parents were so thankful to Jackson that their voices trembled. It wasn’t hard to tell that the two were honest and humble persons.

“Uncle, auntie, take a good rest. I will come here after two days.”

Jackson smiled, and they saw hope in Jackson’s smile. Harry’s parents kept nodding and felt that it was Harry’s good fortune to have such a good colleague.

Harry walked to the door with Jackson, the latter said:

“Go back and take care of your parents. By the way, I will ask for a leave for you in the company. Come back to work after you finish handling your family business.”

Though Jackson said so, he felt bitter in his heart. He didn’t know how to explain this to Dolcie, who might be mad at him again because of her impartial personality.

But what he did was virtuous. After all, he didn’t date another woman secretly. No, he felt that he had to figure this out carefully.

Harry looked at Jackson thankfully, but he didn’t say a word.

Though there were many things he wanted to say, yet it would be too hypocritical if he really said them out.

From now on, Jackson was not only a master in Harry’s heart, but also the benefactor.

Harry used to make a joke that he would do anything for Jackson.

But this time, he really meant it.

After parting from comrade Harry, it was already at night on Jackson’s way home.

Nothing happened for a night. The next day, Jackson went to work with Dolcie. Before he could sit down on the chair, he received a call from the CEO’s office.

“Jackson, come to my office.”

Dolcie said in a mandatory tone.

Jackson thought it was because of Harry.

However, as he walked in the office, he saw an old man.

The old man’s hairs were grey, but he looked very energetic. He wore a Chinese tunic suit. It was exactly Anthony Clark.

“Haha, Jackson, it’s good to see you again. I hope my granddaughter did not trouble you.”

Anthony could not call Jackson the Dragon King in front of his granddaughter.

“It’s alright.” Jackson walked forth and answered with a smile.

How dare he complain with Dolcie next to him.

Dolcie was confused: why would her grandpa speak so respectful every time in front of Jackson.

Her grandpa was the leader of the Clark family in Y City after all. It was rare to see him act so respectful to someone younger than him.

“Let’s sit down, shall we?” Anthony pointed at the seat next to him.

Jackson sat on the sofa, “Mr. Clark, you want me to help with something?”

Dolcie was quite speechless. This guy was really arrogant. Anthony of course came to the company to see his granddaughter. How would it relate to Jackson.

But Dolcie soon found herself wrong. Anthony was indeed here for Jackson.

Anthony said: “Jackson, I came to you this time because of a very important thing, which even relates to the safeness of Dolcie.”

He looked serious as he spoke. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Jackson frowned, “What’s the matter?”

Anthony sighed, “According to the news, Aiden Don was back to the Y City. This man might take advantage of Dolcie. You have to be careful!”

Aiden Don.

Dolcie’s body trembled as she heard this name, and her expression looked awful as well.

Aiden Don was the descendant of the upper-class Don family in the Y City and also the heritor of the Don Corporate.

Most importantly, Dolcie used to date with Aiden for a while.

Three years ago, Aiden, with the help from Elder Madam, arranged a marriage with Dolcie. At that time, Elder Madam valued the background and future status of Aiden Don.

She thought this marriage would bring the Clark family a rapid development.

But Dolcie refused to marry Aiden at that time, and Anthony also said no. Therefore, Jackson had the chance to become the son-in-law and married Dolcie.

As for why Dolcie disapproved the marriage, the reason was very simple.

Almost every upper-class man in Y City knew that Aiden had a special hobby in sex. To put it bluntly, it was SM, and he had a heavy taste.

It was rumored that whoever slept with him would be tortured almost to death, and it was hard to survive.

To have Dolcie marry someone like Aiden, it was no different than sending her to the mouth of a tiger.

Later on, Aiden suddenly went to study in Europe and never returned. Dolcie thought that the marriage between them was gone. And she felt unhappy and unnecessary for her grandpa to arrange her another marriage.

But now after three years, she didn’t expect Aiden to be back in Y City.

“Your grandma was too short-sighted at that time. She shouldn’t agree to that marriage.”

“But I am married now, how dare he do anything to me?” Dolcie frowned and asked.

Thinking of the special hobby of Aiden, she felt disgusted. She felt that it was more pleasant to see Jackson’s smiling face.

Anthony laughed bitterly, “Silly girl. The Don family has a strong background. They are extremely powerful within the Y City, and our family is nothing compared to them. We can’t afford to offend them.”

“What’s more, Aiden is a mean and insidious guy. He will definitely not forgive you if he knows that you’re married. In his eyes, you are already his wife.”

It was rare to see a marriage withdrawn in the upper-class. In fact, the Don family was very unhappy at the time when Jackson married Dolcie, but the Don family didn’t do anything for some reasons.

Probably the Don family felt disdained to do anything about Jackson, who was considered to be a useless son-in-law. Or perhaps because it was a personal business for Aiden, and the family decided to leave it to Aiden himself.

“I am afraid that Jackson is the only one who can help with this.” Anthony looked at Jackson for help.

Dolcie was shocked. She didn’t understand why her grandpa would put his hope on Jackson.

Who was Jackson?

He was a person who could only beat up some random gangsters, but he was definitely no match for Aiden Don, the heritor of an upper-class family in Y City, which was an existence looked up at by everyone in this city.

“Grandpa, are you going to find me a bodyguard? It’s more reliable to find a bodyguard somewhere else than to rely on this guy.” Dolcie rolled her eyes.

Anthony suddenly shouted, “Enough! Dolcie, stop messing around! You have no idea that if it weren’t Jackson, you would have already…”

“Mr. Clark, please stop.”

Jackson interrupted Anthony’s words and said coldly: “I understand the situation now. It’s just Aiden Don, he’s nobody. I will keep Dolcie safe.”

Jackson gave Anthony a sign that asked the latter to stop talking.

There were some things that Jackson did not do for Dolcie, but for himself.

He was willing to pay back everything so that he wouldn’t regret in his heart.

Therefore, no matter how Dolcie looked down upon him, he was willing to bear it.

After hearing Jackson’s words, Anthony felt more relaxed and didn’t say anything else.

With words from the Dragon King, Dolcie was already safe.

Meanwhile, he sighed in his heart. Dolcie was too naive.

Jackson had done everything for her, devoting so much quietly.

But now Dolcie didn’t feel grateful at all and even look down on Jackson.

Anthony wondered how her silly granddaughter would react if she knew that her husband was the Dragon King of Dragon Palace, the best secret organization in Europe.
