Talent mission

In the early morning of the trial day, when the citizens gathered in the government hall to cheer, Ethan was declared guilty of all the crimes, and the court held 48 hours later to announce the final result.It was the day after Judgment Day.

David has been fighting with his family these days. His mother is unwilling to talk to him, his brother is refusing to talk to him, and the king refuses to see David. do all..."

Jack put his hand on David's shoulder, interrupting the rest of his words, looking into David's eyes, Jack said seriously: "I will do my best for you."

David was surprised and delighted. The last time they met, they broke up badly. At this moment, Jack made such a promise. Before he had time to express his gratitude to Jack, Jack passed him by.He could only stare hopefully at Jack's back.

There was no smile on Jack's face with his back turned to him, his eyes were dark, and his lips were tightly pursed.

This is not a promise, but a warning and threat. Jack will indeed do his best, but he never said that he will use this power to help David.

Jack did not convey David's entreaty to the king, and when a fleeting opportunity arose, he did not intend to use it to help David, but to torment him.

On Judgment Day, a two-day grievance conference. The king selected ten cases from the complaints of the whole people and retried them in person. Both the plaintiff and the defendant can present and argue in front of the king. One of the ten cases originally scheduled was cancelled. Now there is a gap.

Jack asked Katrina Gent to inform Michelle immediately, to make a presentation of the proposal for the new health bill she had been fighting for, and to lead the leading actress to the arranged party without her knowledge. Location.Then he went to David himself and handed him the poisoned molasses.

David was of course disappointed. Even though Michelle was willing to withdraw the proposal for him, the committee's choice did not depend on her will. The committee was led by the minister of the conference room, Gent, and Jack happened to be Gent's boss.

According to Jack's original plan, he should tell David after announcing the proposal that someone in the court wants to give Ethan a heavy sentence as an example, and the only result waiting for Ethan is the death penalty.

This can make David and Michelle turn against each other completely, so that David can't help but blame Michelle in his heart even if he knows it's not Michelle's fault, and he will never indulge himself to like her again.

But this move seems unnecessary, since David has already decided not to like Michelle anymore, for Jack.

So Jack swallowed the words back, and let David stalk away, to the cell to make a last-ditch effort to persuade his brother to voluntarily plead guilty and get a reduced sentence.

Anyway, he must know that too much pain will only make people numb.

Jack asked Ghent to send someone to bring a message to David. If David attacked the king's policy and the king himself at the press conference the next day, Ghent would be able to send a message to the judge to give Ethan a lighter sentence, otherwise Ethan would still be sentenced. Dead end.

After that night, the focus of Jack's actions was no longer to attack the relationship between David and Michelle, but to attack David's position in the king's heart.

Jack thought that David would get what he wanted this time, but he always miscalculated on David. He watched David struggling in front of countless cameras and microphones, and finally expressed his trust in the king.

Because he really believed in the king.

Jack waited outside the venue to witness David's last scene at Shiloh's political center, but he met a true believer.

David hurried out of the venue, his face full of heartbreak and exhaustion, Jack called him: "David—"

Jack should continue to pretend to comfort David, poking his wound with every tender word, leaving him bloodied and so aching that he doesn't want to stay any longer in Shiloh.But he couldn't say a word.

David suddenly turned his head, hugged Jack and cried.

Jack was at a loss for a moment, his hands hung in the air for a while, and then he patted David on the back hesitantly and cautiously, and then he realized that the staff who had packed up the venue would come out of this door soon, and they couldn’t let They saw the hero who had just been awarded a medal of valor crying in a corridor full of people.

He looked up and around, and pulled David into an empty meeting room next to him. David followed his footsteps with a grin. Because of this move, he was a little sober, and he didn't even have time to be ashamed of it, and hugged Jack tightly. Arms, heads down against Jack's shoulders, as if trying to drain the tears on Jack's suit.

David had his back to the half-open door, so he didn't see it, but Jack saw it, and Michelle came eagerly from the other side of the hallway, with a look of disbelief on her face.

Jack immediately realized that Michelle had been paying attention to David. The scene in front of her was of course surprising to Michelle. She thought that the relationship between Jack and David was very strange.

Jack pushed David away a little, squeezed David's chin, and gently stroked his lips with his thumb.

David looked at Jack with teary eyes. He needed a little reassurance now, any kind of reassurance, and Jack's actions encouraged him.

David put his arms around Jack's shoulders, closed his eyes and kissed him.

Jack didn't close his eyes, looking past David's sideburns, he looked at Michelle behind David's side.

Michelle subconsciously held onto the door frame and was completely stunned. She could see clearly that it couldn't be borrowing a seat, it couldn't be a misunderstanding, David took the initiative.

This blow almost broke the princess's heart, and she turned and ran away unbearably.

Ghent also saw David's performance on the broadcast screen. She came to Jack to ask for the next step instructions, and saw Michelle running away from the door of the room with an expression almost crying, and walked over suspiciously, just in time to see David and Jack's lips parted.

She took a step back subconsciously, the orange petition envelopes all over the floor made her high heels step on the marble floor without making any sound.

Jack saw her, but ignored her. Instead, he put his hand on David's tie and said, "Hey, David, that's right, I called Gent just now when you were holding a press conference. She has promised to intercede with the judge and give a lighter sentence, and Ethan will be sentenced to a few years in prison at most."

Jack knew that when his brother's life couldn't make David violate the justice in his heart, there was no way.

Since the goal cannot be achieved, there is no need to put David's brother to death. Anyway, David has given up, and Michelle can't continue after seeing this scene. If David doesn't marry the princess, there is no way to get rid of it. Take his throne, no matter how much he is favored by the king, it doesn't matter.

Besides, David is very close to him now, isn't he?

David ascended from hell to heaven in an instant, and grabbed Jack's shoulders in ecstasy: "Really! Jack, how can I thank you..." At this moment, in David's eyes, Jack is the cutest person in the world , he looked at Jack so affectionately, suddenly there was a hint of worry from joy, "I need this judgment very much, but... I just want to know, will this hinder you? Will it become a stain on you?"

Jack's smile could hardly last, he simply stopped pretending, and said succinctly: "No."

"Thank you very much anyway," David couldn't hold back his excitement at all, "I don't even know why you are so kind to me..." He hugged Jack fiercely, "Thank you, Jack!"

"I'm sorry, I have to..." David turned his head and glanced in the direction of the door, "I have to go back and make a phone call and tell my mother earlier so that she can feel at ease..."

But Jack stopped him and said, "Do you have time after the trial?"

"I think there will be..." David paused, suddenly realizing the meaning of Jack's question.

Jack straightened the hem of his suit and put on a serious look: "You owe me a date, the second choice?"

David smiled: "I will go to your villa."

Jack put his hands behind his back and said solemnly, "I'll wait for you."

He thought how gratifying it would be to receive gratitude from David's eyes, but he didn't expect to see gratitude in those clear eyes, so unbearable.

At that moment, he suddenly thought of David's eyes that night, bewildered and frenzied, the eyes that were burned by lust, his eyes were red, that was his favorite look that appeared on David.

He wanted to see that one more time.

David hurried out the door without even seeing Gent standing by the wall, Gent watched him run away and into the room.

Jack sat on a table with his head down, seemingly in a daze.

But he didn't, because he heard Gent's footsteps and said without looking back: "You heard it and know how to tell the judge."

Gent couldn't help turning his head to look at the back of David who disappeared at the end of the corridor: "So you're just... jealous with your sister?"

Jack turned his head to look at her, and suddenly smiled evilly: "Are you going to tell my dad?"

Ghent replied, "No, sir." Why would she do something that didn't do any good?

Jack turned his head back: "Very good. I won't say thank you."

Before going to the private villa, Jack dressed up in the palace. When he was picking his tie in the mirror, Michelle almost slammed the door and asked angrily, "Why do you want to destroy David? Because of jealousy?"

Jack raised his hands as if admitting defeat, then turned around unhurriedly, looking at the angry princess: "Michelle, I can't force a soldier to sleep with me."

Michelle clutches at the word in shock: "Sex?"

Jack spreads his hands: "Opening night."

Michelle stared at him, tears almost rolling from her eyes.

Jack raised his eyebrows: "You can think that he regards me as your substitute, I don't mind, as long as you can believe it."

Michelle turned and walked away.

She walked faster and faster, clasping her hands tightly to her chest, silently chanting the name of the Lord.The anger towards Jack suddenly turned into disappointment towards David and guilt towards the oath.

Michelle was once terminally ill, inherited from her father. After she was miraculously rescued from the moment of dying, she vowed to dedicate her life to God and God's people, completely forgetting her own happiness and only caring about the happiness of others.

Love has punished her, she shouldn't have fallen in love with any man, she swore it!
