Samson looked at Jack who has stopped the can, and anger flared in his eyes.
He has just seen this guy entering the shop with his hands in his wife's arms and he quickly moved inside the shop to see.
He couldn't believe that Nicole was cheating on him with such a young guy.
More anger moved in his body as he thought about it.
"You bastard! So you are the one!" Samson yelled and pulled the can back into his hand.
He clenched his teeth as he tightened his grip around the Can.
Nicole looked at Jack and her eyes widened in terror, she didn't want him to get hurt because of her.
She quickly moved and placed her hands on his chest. "Jack, quickly go out, I will handle this." She said, worry visible on her face.
"Don't worry, I can teach him a lesson," Jack said and placed a hand on her head, he wanted to reassure her.
When Samson saw this, his eyes flared up even more. He gritted his teeth and moved the tin can over his head.
"Ahh... You bitch! I will kill you!" Rage took control of his body and he furiously shoved the can downwards on their bodies.
Nicole panicked when she saw the can moving toward her and tears moved out from her eyes.
She moved closer to Jack and grabbed him tightly. "I am sorry Jack..." She said as she buried her head in his chest. She was in front of him so she could protect him from the impact.
Jack looked at her and then at the incoming can, his eyes narrowed and he stopped the Can a second time, with his single hand.
When Samson saw that his attack has failed twice in a row he furrowed his brows.
He could tell that this average-looking guy was strong.
Grunting he tried to move the can away, however, he couldn't as Jack's grip was stronger.
Jack pulled his hand back and took the can from Samson, throwing it aside.
"You!"
Samson stepped forward and tried to punch him, however, Jack was faster, his hand moved and he landed a loud punch on his face.
Getting impacted by the punch, Samson stumbled backward and landed on the floor.
Bella's eyes widened when she witnessed this.
Nicole on the other hand when moved away from Jack and saw Samson on the floor groaning in pain also stammered.
"Jack..." She pulled him away, as she could see rage in his face.
"Samson, get out of my shop!" She then yelled at her husband.
Samson opened his eyes slowly and then looked at his wife and then the guy beside her.
Clenching his teeth, he spat on the floor.
"Bitch! I want a divorce. And give me my shop back!" He said as he stood up.
"Take it! I don't even need your money!" Nicole moved and got behind Jack when she saw Samson moving towards her.
Jack glared at Samson and then holding Nicole's hand moved out of the shop.
"Let's go." He said and looked at Samson one last time.
"Get out you fucker! I will make sure to teach both of you a lesson." Samson yelled looking at their departing figure.
When they were gone, he looked around the shop, and then his gaze landed on Bella.
"I am sorry." He said to the old woman, "You can close the shop and take a cheque from me." He fired her on the spot.
Bella didn't say anything and nodded, after that, they moved out while closing the shop shutter.
....
Jack and Nicole moved into his apartment and sat on the sofa.
Tears started falling down her eyes as she remembered the events that has transpired till now.
"I am sorry Jack..." She said while hugging him tightly.
Jack listened to her and sighed. He then slowly started patting her head to calm her down.
"Don't worry, I am with you." He said and took her in his embrace.
"I am sorry..." She said again as more and more tears started falling from her eyes.
"You don't need to go home. You can stay here from now on." He stood up from the sofa and took out some beer cans from the fridge.
Nicole looked at him and her heart ached. She has put his life in danger just now, she knew her husband and his anger issues.
"He won't let us be so easily." She said as more tears fell from her eyes.
Jack listened to her and looked at her for a few seconds.
After that, he sat beside her and pulled her body on his. "Don't worry I will take care of it." He whispered. "Now wash up and don't cry." He wiped her tears with his hands.
"I can't take favors from you." She looked into his eyes. "I will soon find a Job." She stood up and moved towards the wash basin.
Jack looked at her and sighed.
After washing her face she came again and sat near him, opening the fizzy beer can.
"You know you can work for me," Jack said suddenly while holding her hand.
Nicole, who was about to take a sip from the beer stopped and then looked at him with her brows raised.
Her lips slightly opened up as confusion moved through her brain, she knew that Jack was only a college student so what kind of work could she do for him?
"What work?" She asked.
"Well, I am looking to buy a house, you can help me find it, meanwhile I can pay you for it," Jack said.
He wanted to help Nicole and knew that she would take his help any other way.
"You are looking for a house? How are you supposed to pay for it?" She was worried about him.
"I have told you before that I am earning good money from my investment." He said and then his hands slipped under her waist. "You can also stay with me meanwhile." He said and then a sneaky smile formed on his face.
He wanted to lighten the mood.
Nicole showed a small smile and then sighed, "I know that you want to help me, you don't have to, it wasn't your fault to begin with."
She didn't want to put too much pressure on him, she knew that he was just a young boy and taking care of two people would be hard for him.
She could tell that he was giving her the job only because he wanted to help her, he didn't really need to buy a house.
She was grateful for it, however, she was older than him and has seen the world, she knew that if she depend on him too much then eventually he will start hating her.
Jack looked at her complicated expressions and tightened his grip around his waist.
"You don't have the option to decline my offer. Just divorce that bastard, I can take care of you instead." He said passion was visible in his eyes.
He was serious, he already has enough money to take care of Nicole and others without any problem.
He moved and after fiddling through some drawers he finally took out his rectangular checkbook and a pen.
He then sat near Nicole again.
She looked at the book and then frowned.
"What are you doing?" She asked, as her heart started beating at a rapid pace.
She hoped that he didn't do anything stupid.
"This is the payment for the house, I want it in six months," Jack said, and then gave the cheque to Nicole.
Nicole although hesitant, move her hand to look at the paper, and when she saw it her eyes widened in surprise as she forgot to breathe for a few seconds.
"Ten Million?" She looked at him with a stupefied expression.
At first, she thought that Jack was joking with her and there was no way that a student like him could have so much money, even if his investments pay a good amount.
However, when she saw his serious expression she wasn't able to speak her thoughts.
"How do you have so much money?" She asked.
She was worried that Jack has gotten himself into some shady business.
"I told you that I have invested in the stock market." He leaned near her. "Buy a good house, one of your liking."
"Are you crazy?! House?! You can buy a mansion at such a price!"
"Ohh, it's not completely for the house, Five million is for the house and the rest is your fees." He said.
"Fees?" Nicole stammered.
What kind of property agent earn so much money on a single sale and even before she has even shown him the house?
"Do you think I am stupid?" She said with her brows raised, by now she was sure that Jack was using this moment to give her a ridiculous amount of money.
And she can't take it, after all, he wasn't at fault, to begin with.
She slept with him on her own accord and now she has to face consequences on her own too.
She move her hand and tried to give the cheque back, however, Jack pinched her thighs.
"It's order form your daddy."
