The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson)
The Second Act 181

Christopher's face stiffened slightly.

His handsome facial features all tightened, and his thin lips were also compressed into a straight line.

Did Jackson claim that Oneida was his woman?

Christopher just squinted at them, unable to say a word.

He felt so sad inside.

"Let's go home," Jackson turned his head slightly and said to Oneida in a low voice.

Oneida was stunned for a moment and then nodded.

Jackson released his hand and let Oneida stand up straight again.

They turned around and left.

Christopher was left alone.

He clenched his fists and stared at their receding figures, looking extremely cold.

After a while, he finally turned around and got in the car.

Oneida followed Jackson into Garrison Mansion.

On the way, neither of them spoke.

When they reached the hall, Oneida finally couldn't help but say, "Jackson, I..."

Unexpectedly, Jackson also said at this time, "You..."

They spoke at the same time.

Oneida smiled slightly and said in a low voice, "Jackson, please go ahead. I am all ears."

Jackson glanced at her.

Actually, he didn't have to do that.

He shouldn't even do that...

But when he saw Christopher and Oneida standing in front of Garrison Mansion, as they did last time, he could not stand it anymore.

This time, he couldn't stand by and do nothing.

Therefore, he chose to show up in person and warn Christopher.

Yet...

What he did just now seemed to frighten Oneida.

She looked embarrassed and uncomfortable.

Jackson's eyes darkened, and a trace of sadness flashed across his heart.

"Don't worry about what happened just now." Jackson's voice was cold and magnetic. "I saw that you didn't like being pestered by Christopher, so I took the liberty to do those moves. I just acted in front of Christopher. Don't take it to heart." In the end, Jackson's voice was even tender.

He was afraid that he would scare her and embarrass her, so he said this to make her feel better.

Hearing this, Oneida paused.

It turned out that those ambiguous and intimate moves were all Jackson's acting.

He just acted in front of Christopher.

An inexplicable sense of loss surged into Oneida's heart.

She didn't say anything but replied in a flat voice, "Okay,"

Seeing her sudden lack of interest, Jackson frowned slightly.

He asked in a gentle tone, "By the way, what did you just want to say to me?"

Oneida paused for a moment.

Originally, she wanted to tell Jackson that she was actually very happy about what he had done just now.

Now, knowing that Jackson was just acting, she didn't need to say these words at all.

Oneida shook her head. "Nothing."

Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Jackson didn't force her. He immediately changed the subject. "By the way, change your clothes quickly. We are going to see Grandpa later." "Your grandpa?"

Oneida widened her eyes slightly and said in surprise.

Jackson nodded slightly.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Oneida frowned, and her tone was filled with a bit of blame.

She and Jackson got the marriage certificate secretly.

After marrying him, she had never seen his family.

Now, she was finally going to see his family.

Oneida clenched her fingers with excitement.

"Why didn't I tell you earlier?" Jackson repeated Oneida's words with a faint smile. A hint of helplessness flashed across his handsome face, "You just came back from the training camp now. How can I tell you..." Hearing this, Oneida smiled awkwardly and said, "You're right."

She looked at Jackson with curiosity. "Why do you want to see your grandpa all of a sudden?"

Jackson said flatly, "It is Grandpa's birthday today."

Oneida was even more surprised.

She didn't expect that it would be such an important day today.

It was Lionel's birthday.

"Grandpa didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he called us over for dinner," Jackson continued in his cold voice.

Oneida was a little uneasy.

Since she was going to the birthday party, she should prepare a gift for Lionel.

However, at that moment, Oneida didn't have any decent gifts.

Seeing her absent-mindedness, Jackson frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Oneida pursed her lips and said directly, "Jackson, I haven't prepared a gift for your grandpa..."

Hearing this, Jackson was still calm and said, "Don't worry. Just choose one from my collection."

In Jackson's eyes, gifts were insignificant.

Lionel had seen countless valuable items.

Lionel didn't care about the gift. He just wanted to have a meal with his family.

However, Oneida shook her head.

She refused Jackson's offer.

"I'll think of a gift myself..." she said. It was the first time she met Lionel, so she couldn't give him a perfunctory gift.

Seeing her insistence, Jackson didn't say anything more.

They went back to their rooms respectively.

Jackson was pushed into the study by Victor.

"Mr. Bane, what you asked me to investigate has just been delivered to me," Victor said respectfully while pushing the wheelchair.

"Give it to me," Jackson narrowed his eyes and said briefly.

Victor didn't dare to delay. He pushed Jackson to the desk and handed him the materials he had investigated.

It was all about Oneida.

Victor was confused. When Oneida first married Jackson, Jackson seemed to be very reassured about her and didn't investigate her at all...

But now, Jackson was investigating her.

Jackson lowered his eyes slightly and slowly opened the file with his slender fingers.

After returning from Misty Forest, he ordered Victor to investigate Oneida's information.

It was got to be a thorough investigation.

He was not suspicious of Oneida, but more curious.

He just wanted to know if there were still some past stories hidden in this little girl.

His eyes fell on the file word by word, and he looked at it very carefully.

After reading it, he gently closed the file.

The handsome Jackson frowned slightly.

There was nothing strange about the information.

Oneida is just an ordinary girl, from the mountain village to Jeahron, from exile to return to the rich family.

Nothing special.

But Jackson had a strange feeling.

It seemed that something had been deliberately covered up.

Oneida must have some secrets.

Jackson didn't think Oneida would hurt him.

His judgment and intuition were accurate.

Oneida wouldn't hurt him.
