Suddenly, a voice was heard, and turning their face, Alena saw a man, with a stick and having black hair, standing at the door. But he wasn't alone. Along with him was a man, who looked almost of the same age as that of Jack. 

But she can feel that Jack's aura dropped immediately when the man appeared along with the old man. After seeing them, Jack himself was really trying to control his anger deep down. 

"Who dares to do that?! And Jack, who is this lady on the house?! Wearing a bridal dress? What does that mean?" The old man was stern in his command; she could feel that he was eyeing her from the top to bottom. 

Just by the gaze, she can feel uncomfortable, then how can Jack even converse with them? But with no choice left, Alena came forward to introduce herself first, "Myself Alena. I'm Jack's wife." 

Hearing her words, the old man looked at Jack with his angry gaze to speak out, "Jack! Is what the lady is telling the truth? You are married?" 

"Do I need to clarify it to you? Who are you to interfere with my life like this? Are you forgetting that we have no relationships and I'm no one to reply to your questions?" Jack left no space for negotiation. 

He looked distant and at that time, he pulled Alena behind him to come in between the old man and Alena, to stop him from looking at Alena with his serious and deathly glares. 

"Also, I will not tolerate anyone seeing my woman like this." 

"You are such a jerk! How can you get married without telling your family members!? Jack, have you actually lost your mind?! Your father is still alive! Your brother is also there and you married in secret? If I haven't come here today, did you even have any intention of telling any of us?" 

Jack totally ignores his words as if, he heard from one ear and lets it go from the other. 

But Alena has already guessed who this person is. From the starting line to their facial expression and the similarities, it wasn't difficult to guess that he is Jack's father. 

"Jack, I'm asking you something! We talked about it, that you will marry Mr. Shawn's daughter but you broke that promise! His daughter was waiting for you all day in the cafe!" 

"I never said that I will get married to her. Neither did I promise that I will meet her so about what are you talking about, dad? I guess you are forgetting that I'm your lost child and your real child is standing beside you. Why don't you get him married to that lady of your wish? After all, he agrees to all your requests!"

Yes, his tone was very sarcastic but he can't help but feel disgusted all over himself when his father actually brought up the topic of getting him married to someone else when his legal wife is standing beside him. 

His father was fuming but the man beside him was laughing inside. Alena did notice that Jack's hands had already turned into a fist and to calm him down, she kept her hand over his shoulders. 

"Stop. This amount of anger will make you weaker. You haven't recovered properly." A simple sentence and it was enough for his raging nerves to calm down. 

His father did notice this and he can feel that the lady has quite an effect on this son of his. 'He married someone, who can least calm him down in such situations.' For him, Alena wasn't the one for his son but deep side, he knew that this isn't in his control.

"Jack, you really disappointed me today! Do you know how your mom might be feeling from the heavens?" Suddenly, this strict him and Jack, who had earlier calmed down, felt his anger hitting up. 

A smirk came over his face when he relayed the old man, "Have you ever thought how mom would have felt when you committed the mistakes in your life? Did you consider her and me? No, right? So why are we suddenly bringing my mother?"

"No one can deny that she has your mother and I'm your father. I'm just concerned for y-" the old man was cut off when Jack answered back in a harsh tone. 

"You have no need to be concerned over me. I have my wife. She can take care of me and I can take care of hers. Please just leave before I insult you more and upset myself." He can see that his father was hurt deep down. 

His eyes showed sadness and Alena knew that both father and son's relationship had strained over a period due to some reason that she wishes to know. 

But for the first time, the man beside the old man spoke, "Brother, dad is talking about your well-being. He had no other motive and you are taking him wrong." 

"See, who is speaking and telling me this. The mistake of my father cost me my mother's life. It would be much better if you keep your mouth shut and do not interfere because you have n right to do so." This made the man gave Jack gates but ignored him. 

"Please leave me alone with my wife and it would be for the best." For the last time, he said this and waited for his father to leave but he didn't move an inch.

Instead of speaking to his son, he turned his face to Alena, who was earlier shielded back by Jack, "You have married my son without my knowledge. You never felt that you should come to me and have a conversation with his family?"

"I..I was always told that he is an orphan." Alena honestly treated. If she knew, then the scenario would never be different. 

His father laughed at this sentence because he can already imagine that this was before he had met his son. "So this brat always said that he is an orphan? I guess, Jack, you have never accepted my presence in your life right?"
