“What?” Naomi’s eyes widened in surprise. “Initially, I thought that you were Lord G.” Jack had a hint of regret on his handsome face. He walked to the dining table.
Naomi was stunned. She immediately asked, “You prepared all the flowers and music for me?”
It was because of her, Naomi, not because of Lord G?
Jack’s eyes sparkled a little. He nudged at her with his chin a little.
“Come here and sit.”
“You still haven’t answered my question.”
Naomi sat opposite Jack. Next to her was a gigantic floor-to-ceiling window. It was as big as a cinema screen, playing the city’s best view. Jack studied Naomi’s face in detail. Then, he said distractedly, “I thought you deliberately picked this restaurant. Fifteen years ago, you came here once with your parents.” “Fifteen years ago…” Naomi’s pupils dilated. The past flooded her mind. 15 years ago, the restaurant was not called the Sky Bar. Five-year-old Naomi came to the restaurant with her parents. It was her mother’s birthday. She still remembered her father booking the entire restaurant, decorating it with fresh flowers and romantic music-just like what happened at that moment Her mother was delighted. That night, the three of them stood by the window and looked at the world’s most beautiful fireworks. That year, they were truly happy as a family… “Although the restaurant has already changed ownership, there will be a fireworks show later, just like back then.” Jack pretended to speak nonchalantly. His deep- set eyes, on the other hand, observed Naomi’s expressions. Naomi’s eyes instantly brightened. The entire Gin City banned fireworks. She has not seen such dazzling fireworks in 15 years. “Mister Daddy, thank you!”
A feeling of warmth spread across her chest. Naomi felt like she was being gently hugged by an invisible hand. She had only casually mentioned the restaurant, yet Jack intentionally went to understand her past and recreated the scene 15 years ago for her!
“You’re welcome.”
Jack smiled upon seeing how Naomi was so touched; she was moved to tears. He gained something that night. Under the romantic music, the restaurant manager served them dish after dish. Naomi picked up her knife and fork, secretly sneaking glances at Jack. She guessed he was probably in a good mood, so she asked curiously, “Mister Daddy, why do you want to look for Lord G?”
dG!” When Jack heard what she asked, he put his cutlery down and looked at Naomi with a focused
gaze.
He patiently explained, “Hough Corp grew from my grandfather’s time until today, and it became a huge corporation that encompasses assorted industries, just like a giant tree. “The core of this huge tree is the Hough Corp’s system and date. Our technicians’ main mission is to protect the health of this huge tree. However, ill-willed hacking is not their forte. I need the top people in this industry to join us to protect his huge tree.”
Naomi supported her chin with one hand, looking at Jack’s handsome face. She was engrossed in hearing what he said. His calm and steady talking speed was never urgent. It was as if he was always in control of everything he did. He could have only uttered a few simple words, yet it had the power to comfort others.
His mature aura oozed from the corner of his brows, slowly entering Naomi’s heart. She looked at him and started to swoon. Mister Daddy was way too handsome! “That’s not the most important reason I’m
looking for Lord G.” Jack looked at Naomi with a deep gaze. Naomi nervously sat straight. “Then… What is the most important reason?” “It’s you,” Jack replied to her question without any hesitation. Those words were a blow to Naomi, making her shudder violently. “I thought you were Lord G. The dangers of the hackers on the dark web are far beyond your imagination. I want to… protect you!”.” Jack paused for a while before finishing his sentence. He looked serious. After all, he was the one who embroiled her in the fight. At that moment, she would be targeted by that group of scum. He had to be responsible for her. “I know you can do a lot of things, but with me here, you don’t have to risk it, do you understand?” “I do!”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
