Chapter 418 Golden Cage (2/2)

With unimaginable amount of rage inside him, Mr.Gu shot a final glance at Jacob while he stepped out of the ward. His turbid eyes were livid with anger. ”Get out!”, he yelled.

A minute later, Jack walked in gleefully. As soon as he stepped in, he was greeted by an angry curse from Mr. Gu, ”Where were you just now? How could you let Jacob in?”

”Mr. Gu, please control your temper. It's bad for your health.” Jack's attitude seemed somewhat disapproving. Now that he had achieved his aim, he didn't have to respect Mr. Gu. H
