Chapter 77

Upon seeing Oneida's confused look, Jackson suddenly realized that he might have said something serious.

In fact, he also felt that his anger was

to him.

"I just felt that..." he said after a moment of silence. His tone was a little soft and coaxing as he continued, "Since we're a married couple, you should tell me if you encounter any difficulties." His voice became softer than before. "Oneida... I'm your husband. I told you that I will protect you completely. Those aren't just empty words but my promise to you."

Oneida's eyes flashed as she stared, dazed, at the man in front of her.

She had always been alone all along, and she was used to being alone as well.

Oneida would solve everything by herself, even facing all difficulties and hardships alone.

Right then, Jackson had told her that he would protect her.

"Jackson!" With a touching smile on her face, Oneida spread her arms out to hug Jackson as if she was a little girl.

Throwing herself into his arms, she caught a whiff of the refreshing scent on him and murmured, "Thank you, and I'm really sorry... I won't let you worry about me in the future." Oneida didn't dare to tell Jackson anything. It was obvious that she held a lot of secrets, but she tried not to let Jackson get angry at her, just like how he had been mad at her that day. Although Jackson was caught off guard, he allowed Oneida to hug him without any resistance.

Without even realizing it, his hands moved upward as he embraced the girl in front of him subconsciously.

"You're just like a child..." Jackson thought Oneida was particularly childish at that time.

"That would mean I'm your little child, too," Oneida replied sullenly.

Jackson's eyes darkened as if he had been struck in the heart by her casual words.

"Ahem..." At that moment, Victor, who had been sitting in the driver's seat, couldn't help but pretend to cough and said, "Mr. Bane and Mrs. Bane, should we return home now?" It was utterly embarrassing for Victor as he had become a gigantic third wheel inside the car just then.

With that, he couldn't hold it back any longer and had to interrupt their moment.

Oneida's cheeks flushed as if it was on fire.

Instantly, she retracted her arms and withdrew herself from Jackson's embrace.

She had forgotten that there was another person in front of her

At that moment, her phone suddenly rang.

It was from Tatiana.

Oneida picked up the call.

"What did you do in the Lindt family? Mr, Lindt has told us that he will be coming to our house personally. Did you him again?" Tatiana questioned her angrily as soon as she spoke offend

"What did I do? You'll know soon when he comes over." Oneida frowned slightly, looking a little impatient.

After hanging up the call, she turned to Jackson and said, "Jackson, I'm going back to the Chaser residence first."

There were some issues that she had to make clear to them.

Otherwise, the entire Chaser family would think that she had really done something evil.

"Okay." Jackson didn't say anything but nodded.

At that moment, Tobias was in a bad mood.

He had just called the Chaser family a while ago, informing them that he would be heading there later. However, he didn't expect to receive another call as soon as he hung up. The call came from a big shot from the Bane family.

Being the most prominent family in Hestrya, two of the Bane family's most high-profile members were illegitimate children, namely the first and second born of the family.

It was a confidant of the Bane family's first son who had called him.

The person informed Tobias that it was he who had sent someone to attack Michael, and no one else was involved. The confidant also reminded Tobias to discipline Michael properly or face the repercussions himself.

Upon hearing those words, Tobias' heart sank immediately. He didn't understand why his grandson would mess with the first son of the Bane family.

What he didn't know, however, was that many powerful subordinates and confidants of the first and second sons of the Bane family were actually under Jackson's control.

Jackson, the mysterious and low-profile fourth son of the Bane family, had long infiltrated his power into every corner of the Bane family.

In fact, Jackson was the one who had ordered the call.
