Jack was now beginning to doubt the intelligence of the lady that was before him. Even if there was supposed to be a misunderstanding, why can't simply read the atmosphere?
To say the least, Jack had never thought along the lines that Olivia had spoken about. He was already content with being with Celine and had the intentions of pushing the relationship further.
Olivia seed to have noticed that there was a sudden shift in the atmosphere after her words. As she looked at the expressions of the two as they looked at her with judgntal eyes, her mind began working rapidly and she managed to grasp the reason for that.
"Ah? I'm wrong about that?" Olivia tried to confirm. What she had just said was sothing that she did out of impulse. That was what she had thought the mont that Jack talked about being straightforward.
It wasn't like she had never experienced a situation where she was asked to trade her body for the benefits that she wanted. This was also the main reason as to why she had joined the police force when she grew up.
Although she was training in fighting skills ever since she was young, that was only because she was being forced by her father. When she ca to encounter such a situation, she was just in high school. That was the ti that she had beco motivated to practice so that she could beco stronger.
So, when Jack talked about being straightforward, that was the first thought that ca into her mind and that was just what she spoke.
But now that she thought about how Jack seed to care about Celine, there was a very small possibility that he would want to get another woman, mostly when he was in the presence of Celine.
"Co on! What kind of impression have I given to you so that you have such a kind of image about in your mind?" Jack couldn't help but explain when he saw her asking.
But upon seeing that there was both an innocent and sorry expression on her face, Jack decided to give her a leeway. He sighed and said, "It really doesn't matter what kind of benefits that you'll try offering. But the answer still remains the sa as before, NO!"
"Ahem! What topic are you guys talking about?" feeling that she was being left out, Celine couldn't help but want to know what this agreent that they were talking about was.
"Actually, ever since the first day that I t you guys, I was impressed by the fighting skills that you possess. That is the reason as to why I have been looking for Mr. Jack to see if he could take under his tutelage when it cos to combat skills." Olivia took the initiative to explain.
Still, there was sothing that she had left out. That was the fact that she had managed to et Jack once again and he had saved her. She wasn't sure if Celine knew about his identity of being a soldier.
And since most of his information had been kept in the dark, she decided not to expose them. That was the reason as to why she hadn't thanked Jack well even though he had saved her back then. She wanted to talk about sothing like that in private.
Furthermore, what really happened on that day was sothing that had to be kept as a secret. There was no way that she was going to disclose it considering that the information may reach the higher-ups of the police force.
She had given them false information about the incidence. And if they ca to know that she had lied, then, even her father would not be able to help her to get out of the problems that she would have landed in.
Celine thought about what Olivia said and found that this was indeed reasonable. From her view, although Olivia was a lady, she had actually taken the duty of being on patrol at nights to deal with the gangsters that were always causing trouble in the city.
That heroic appearance was sothing that Celine had managed to see in only a few won, herself excluded. And now, apart from the fact that Jack had given her the body strengthening solution, the lady had also not talked about the fact that they were the ones that were involved in the murder of her previous partner.
Currently, Celine was thinking about the crucial thing here. The body strengthening solution was sothing that was offered by Jack only to those that were part of the special security team or the topmost managent staff that had acquired his trust.
And to her, Olivia was no different from a stranger. In other words, she didn't trust that Olivia would always keep the secret about the body strengthening solution. She had previously talked to Jack about the matter, but he had told her not to worry.
But there was no way that her little heart could take on the pressure that the secret might be exposed, and Jack might have to face several people with dark intentions. Although she knew that Jack was strong, there was no way that she was going to ask him to continuously engage in battles.
I think you should take a look at
"Why don't you allow her to join the training schedule that you planned for . I can at least get so company when I'm training." Celine suggested.
Jack looked at her for a while, thinking about what she was aiming at. Perhaps managing to see through her worries, he nodded. He then looked at Olivia and said, "I'll send you the training schedule after you leave the contact information. You are free to start at your convenience."
Jack could already tell that Celine was worried about monitoring Olivia. That was the reason that he had decided to accept. Perhaps he too might try using this chance to get to know a little more information about this lucky lady.
When Olivia saw that Jack had actually accepted, she was greatly surprised. But at the sa ti, she was obviously happy about it. Still, she couldn't help but think about how Celine was different from other ladies.
They would have definitely chased away any kind of woman that would attempt approaching their n. But on the other hand, Celine was actually asking for a chance so that she could get closer to Jack? She didn't understand that at all.
All the sa, she threw those thoughts out of her mind as she decisively focused on the present. "Thank you for giving this chance, sir and madam. I promise that I won't disappoint you." Olivia got to her feet as she stated excitedly. This was a chance that she had been yearning for in a while now.
"There's no need for you to be so polite about that." Jack casually waved his hand as he dismissed her. Then, he thought of sothing and asked, "When are you going to start the training?"
Olivia sat back on the seat before she responded, "I can start right now if that's possible."
Jack was slightly stunned by her almost instantaneous answer. He had never thought that the lady would be this decisive when it ca to the combat training. "Aren't you a police officer? Are you sure that the training won't be affecting your work schedule?" He couldn't help but ask.
"Not at all. Currently, I have been suspended from duty indefinitely. I'm not sure when I'll be back on duty but I'm sure that it won't be any ti soon." Olivia casually replied.
Due to the fact that there were two incidences that involved the deaths of police officers, this matter had caused an alarm to erupt within the police ranks.
Since she was the center of it all, where her partner died and all the others that were alongside her got killed off, and she was the only survivor, doubts had already been risen about her. So people even thought that she was cooperating with the dark gangs in the city.
But, due to how she had always been cleanly performing her duties as a police officer, rather than detaining her when they continued with the investigation, they decided to suspend her from her duties.
That was the only thing that could be done due to the fact that there was no evidence that had been found that indicated that she had switched sides. Furthermore, there was still the fact that her father was also a big shot in the police force in the city. That was the reason as to why they gave her a leeway.
Previously, Olivia was not in a good mood due to that fact. But now that Jack had agreed to train her, then she was more than happy about the suspension that she received. After all, she now had a lot of free ti that she could utilize to train under Jack.
Furthermore, she took this as compensation from Jack. After all, during all these incidences, Jack was still involved in one way or the other. So, although she didn't talk about what she wanted to offer to Jack for him to agree to teaching her, she didn't feel the slightest guilty.
Jack and Celine were surprised by the fact that she was suspended. But after they thought about the matter, they thought that this was a sohow lighter punishnt that she had received after all the incidences.
After that was out of the way, the three of them engaged in casual chats as they tried to get to know each other.
But after about twenty minutes, Jack's phone rang. When he looked at the contact information, he found that the person that was calling him was Valnaro.
Jack frowned as he wondered what the reason for the call could be. He had always made sure to fulfill his part of the deal about the body strengthening solution. As for the missions, that was sothing that he had yet to consider since he himself was busy at the mont.
After a mont of pause, Jack still received the call. "Yes?" He asked the mont that he received the call.
