Chapter 277 God-like Person (Part Three)

The two guards got intimidated because the child had dared to call out Bobby's name. Even though

Joe was Jackson's son, he was no less arrogant than his father was, and they had to be careful with

how they talked to him.

One of them said, "Not yet."

Joe felt relieved, because his Daddy and Bobby didn't know that he had met Jean today, so everything

was still under his control. He could continue with the things that he planned.

Joe directly said, "If you dare to tell Bobby about any of this, you'll be dead before sundown."

The two were astonished by the little child's words, and doubted whether he was boasting.

"What? Do you think that I just brag and bounce? If I tell my Daddy that you bullied me, or if I make any

other excuse, do you really think that my Daddy will let you off the hook so easily?" Joe pretended to be

arrogant, because at that moment, he couldn't afford to show his weakness, or else all of his plans

would go out in smoke in an instant.

After the two heard his words, they thought for a while and felt that it all made sense, because Jackson

would certainly believe his son instead of them. They knew how powerful Jackson was, and that they

were just the little people who worked for him, so how could they ever possibly compare with Joe?

After Joe saw that they were silent again, he continued to say, "What? Do you want me to call my

Daddy now?"

Joe then took out his phone bought by his Mommy and was about to dial a number.

When the two guards saw that Joe was about to make a call, they hastily stopped him, and said, "Little

master, wait a minute! Let's talk about this!"

When they stopped him, Joe put his phone back in his pocket, because he was just pretending, and

had no intention whatsoever of calling his Daddy.

The two then looked at each other, and one of them said, "Little master, we promise you that we'll not

tell the others about what happened today." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"Not just today! You'll never tell Bobby if I meet my aunt again."

One of the guards thought that it was hard for them to do this and fell silent.

The other one said, "Little master, we can't do that. If you're hurt, then we'll be also dead."

"How could I be hurt? She's my aunt, and she won't hurt me, " said Joe, but he was actually uncertain

about that. It was true that Jean was silly, but she was still an adult who was strong enough to hurt him.

One of the guards echoed, "But Boss Bobby forbids you to see any strangers."

Joe thought that even though the two were just servants, he couldn't make it hard for them.

After a while, Joe looked at the two, and said, "When my aunt comes to see me again, you can

continue to follow me. But..."Joe paused for a second, and then continued, "You can't tell Bobby

anything about that."

One of the security guards still hesitated.

"Your job is to protect me, right? I'll allow you to follow me, and if anything happens to me, you can help

me. My requirement is quite simple: I just want to meet my aunt without letting my Daddy and Bobby

know about it, " said Joe, directly enunciating to them his simple demand. He still wanted to get more

information out of Jean, and he didn't want to blow up his chance to do that.

The two guards looked at each other and said nothing, because they couldn't decide what to do. If they

didn't obey Joe, they thought that he would certainly make them trouble, and keep them from protecting

him, but if they did the opposite and obeyed him, they didn't know how to face Boss Bobby either. They

knew their boss's way to do and handle things pretty well.

Joe stared at them, and after he thought for a moment, he continued to say, "I only have one request:

don't report that I meet with my aunt. You can still report all the other things to Bobby, and besides, you

can still continue to follow me like before, when I didn't know of you."

The two thought about everything and then finally nodded and agreed with Joe's request.

Joe was very happy; he smiled, and said, "Thank you, big brothers!"

The two guards were sour-faced, looked at Joe and said, "Little master, let us bring you back to school,

okay? Staying in school is safer for you."

"Okay, I'll go back to school with you, " said Joe. He then stood between them, held each of their

hands, and walked out of the alley with them.

When Joe returned to school, the students were having their extracurricular activities on the

playground, and his teacher saw him the moment he appeared there.

The teacher then quickly went to Joe, and as she looked at him, she asked, "Joe, haven't you taken a

leave this afternoon? Why are you back at school now?"

"My aunt couldn't stay with me this afternoon because of work, so I came back, " replied Joe.

The teacher smiled at him, and said, "Alright. Go and play with your classmates now."

"Okay."

After Joe left, the smile on the teacher's face disappeared. She thought, 'Joe is really different from the

other kids, he is astonishingly smart! I've tried to ask him things about Jackson, but every time Joe

politely beat around the bush and eventually told nothing about his Daddy. I don't know what I should

do anymore. When will I ever meet Jackson, the man as powerful as a god?'
