I will resign and go to Australia - I will resign and go to Australia chapter 219

219 Tues. Ah, that’s right, that’s right.

About 80 km south of Sydney.

Less than an hour’s drive away is a coastal village with the Aboriginal name for the sound of the sea.

Wollongong.

I went there for a coastal road drive with Jackie.

– Baah.

It’s been a long time since I’ve heard the exhaust sound of a horse, and I feel like my heart is being ripped open a bit.

That’s why it’s called a supercar, a supercar.

I didn’t know it when I was riding, but now that I went out for a drive to calm my complicated mind, it definitely seemed to change my mind.

“Edward, what’s wrong?”

Jackie asked me with her blonde hair fluttering in the passenger seat.

“No, why?”

“It just looks a little different than usual.”

I said to her with a smile on my face.

“Because this was on my bucket list. Riding a supercar in a foreign country and driving along a coastal road with a great view, haha.”

“Aha, that scene from the movie?”

“Right.”

“Is there a beauty riding next to him?”

“Hahaha, that’s how I realized my wish came true.”

“Foot.”

We enjoyed our freedom and enjoyed the drive to our heart’s content.

Then I stopped the car at a famous tourist spot in Wollongong.

I’m Korean, so I can’t help it.

Wherever you go, be sure to keep an eye out for famous places and take a photo.

“Wow, I’ve only heard rumors, but it’s amazing to see it in person.”

I looked up at it from under the stairs.

FOKUANGSHAN NAN TIEN TEMPLE.

I heard that it was built by a Taiwanese Australian and is the largest temple in the Southern Hemisphere.

“Are there many temples in Korea?”

“Yes, there are many mountains and Buddhism has been spread for a long time, so you can often see hermitages and temples.”

“Are you like here?”

“It’s similar, but the atmosphere is a little different. The colors are different. Do I have to say that the orange color has a strong Chinese feel? Unlike Korea, it has a slightly glamorous side.”

“Is Korea on the modest side?”

“Umm….. or something. If you feel like you are here and that you are there, that Korean temples blend into the surrounding environment of mountains? “

Jackie looked around and said.

“It certainly doesn’t feel comfortable here. It’s noisy.”

As she said, the surrounding area was full of Chinese tourists.

I don’t know why Chinese tourists came to Australia to see Chinese temples.

‘I came here because I wanted to feel more comfortable when I came to the temple, but it makes me even more upset.’

With Jackie, I walked around the garden outside, avoiding Chinese tourists as much as possible.

And suddenly I asked her.

“Jackie.”

“yes?”

“What does Jackie think of Henry?”

“Henry? He’s a good guy. He’s also my aunt’s boss.”

Oh, my boss.

You can’t say it’s bad if you’re the boss.

“And you care about your aunt very much, just like your little brother.”

It did.

Henry and Helen spent their childhood together.

Henry at that time probably gave him more heart than Gary Parker.

“She treats me like a daughter. Well, that’s half true.”

huh? just what?

“Half the truth? What does that mean?”

“Didn’t you talk to me in Perth before?”

If you’re talking about Perth, you’re talking about the time you went to celebrate her graduation.

“No, I didn’t.”

“Henry treats his aunt like a younger brother on behalf of his deceased father, but he treats me like a daughter.”

“……”

“So you were my guardian. When I lost my parents, I was very young.”

“Why not Helen, but Henry…”

“You said that to your aunt back then. Charlie’s daughter is like my daughter.”

Jackie smiled and continued.

“And now I am Henry’s guardian.”

“What else do you mean?”

“You don’t know of an adult guardian?”

“What is that?”

“Well, I have the right to make every choice for the rest of Henry’s life if he can’t take care of himself, be it an accident or dementia.”

Enduring Guardian.

In other words, it becomes a guardian, a guardian.

It is a guardianship system that determines where you live, what medical services you receive, and what welfare you choose to maintain your daily life.

“It’s institutionalized that we’re going to do some sort of sick-and-run. Jackie was in charge of that.”

“Yeah, I said I would. Since you were my guardian when I was young, I thought I should repay you too.”

After listening to Jackie’s explanation, the two seemed to treat each other as if they were father and daughter.

It’s not something like Korea’s adoption and listing in the family register, but that’s how we felt that we were responsible for each other as much as possible.

‘Is it possible that Henry was trying to bring the two of us together like that…’

Suddenly, my heart felt heavy.

If my thoughts were right, my doubts up to now would be too shameful.

“Jackie, actually…”

I carefully told her my feelings for Henry.

Words by Robert Bardock and Russell Trevor.

and crucially,

“At that time, Henry didn’t answer. To my question about whether we’re friends…”

I had a hard time putting it in my mouth until then.

“So it’s been a while since I’ve had a dark expression on my face. I asked him what he thought of Henry earlier…”

“Yeah, I started to have doubts without my knowledge. I want to believe it isn’t, but it doesn’t work out the way I want it to.”

“It’s the human heart that doesn’t go the way you want it to.”

“Wow, if two people thought of each other as a couple, they wouldn’t be able to suffer alone anymore. Because I want to be honest with Jackie.”

Jackie smiled faintly, unwrapped her arms and took my hand.

“Edward.”

“……?”

“Henry, you’ve probably heard that the most in my life. Can I trust you, do I have anything to hide from you, and are you my friend?”

“……!”

“My aunt used to say that a relationship is better if you keep some distance, but the closer you are, the better. So that’s my opinion…”

As she sighed, I had no choice but to rush.

“Tell me, because anything is fine.”

“Isn’t Henry trying to convince people with actions rather than words?”

It’s an action…

Well, if Henry had answered yes to my question then, would I have been able to dispel all doubts?

I thought I could shake it off, but I thought it was more likely that I couldn’t.

I was selfishly asking such a question to put my own mind at ease.

“Whew…”

With a sigh, I felt a rush of strength all over my body.

Then Jackie held my hand stronger.

I turned my head and looked at her.

“I want to see Henry.”

Now, instead of going round and round, I thought I had to hit it myself.

“I thought about it.”

Jackie encouraged me with a bright smile.

***

“You came back sooner than I thought.”

Henry looked at me and continued.

“Yeah, did you brush it off?”

“Yeah, I got some help from Jackie.”

I told Henry about the circumstances I had been suspicious of.

and,

“Jackie regards Henry as his father, but he couldn’t keep holding on to that idea. And I heard from Jackie how he was treated by his acquaintances in the past.”

“Heh heh, I got caught on this shameful appearance.”

“No, absolutely not.”

As I shook my head vigorously, Henry said with a delightful smile.

“Don’t blame yourself too much. I’m used to it.”

“……”

“What can I do with my nature? I think my behavior is a bit selfish, but it’s hard to fix it again. When I see a goal, I put my top priority on reaching it, and I can’t see the other parts well.”

Henry looked into my eyes and continued.

“It was the same for you.”

“……?”

“When we first met, I could have been gentle, but I was a bit coercive with the goal of getting you out of the gambling table. It was like running various businesses, and when I introduced you to Jackie, I was full of thoughts of making the two of you together.”

“Anyway, why didn’t you tell me about Jackie? You could have told me something about their relationship.”

“I did it because I was afraid you would be burdened.”

I asked with puzzled eyes.

“And did you do that whenever you had time? It was more burdensome.”

“Heh heh, was that burdensome? I said I did it naturally.”

Henry suddenly stood up.

“Wait a minute, I have something to show you.”

He approached the picture frame on the back wall.

Then, after taking it off, he started to touch the exposed dial.

‘I mean, the old rich people hide their safes behind a picture frame.’

Henry pulled out a briefcase from the safe.

Inside was a document entitled Power of Attorney.

“I was going to show you when the two of you got married.”

I accepted the documents and looked at the contents.

‘Ha… such an idiot…’

I was so pathetic that I was blinded by Robert Bardock’s pranks and blocked my ears from Russell Trevor’s words.

“Henry was trying to give me everything.”

The Power of Attorney stated that, upon Henry’s death, the estate would go to his adult guardian, Jackie.

Since he was never married and had no children, he left all the property to Jackie and Helen as his legal representative to take over the P&B group.

That’s what made Jackie and I connect.

“I thought you would trust me in everything I did. I’m so grateful to you for reminding me of my dead friend, Gary.”

At Henry’s words, a cloud of moisture began to fill up from both eyes.

It came from a misunderstanding, but it was because I was so sorry for him.

‘I can’t hide it anymore.’

I opened my mouth with a stiff neck.

And he told me about the corneal transplant that he had kept secret.

“Gary’s cornea!? Is that real?”

I nodded and took the compass out of my arms.

And what was written in his letter, which was kept in the Commonwealth vault.

“Yeah, it was his friend’s eyes. Heh heh heh.”

Henry was more than happy to hear that Gary had left a mark he was unaware of than I had deceived.

With the word of being that friend.

“Don’t you hate me?”

“Isn’t that possible? Thanks to you, now I really feel like that friend is by my side.”

He patted my shoulder, giving me time to calm down.

“Thank you, Henry.”

“Thank you too, Edward. All in all.”

Henry continued speaking as if emphasizing with a worried expression.

“Make sure you keep what Gary said. Don’t advance your abilities.”

“So, I use it only for the things I need the most.”

Henry said with a smirk.

“Please listen to me this time.”

“I got it.”

Just do verse 1, please.

“But what the hell was that yesterday?”

“Ah, the representative of the Royal Crown?”

To a question I asked yesterday, Henry said that I was not the representative of the Royal Crown and had a separate nominee.

I was terribly disappointed that Robert Bardock seemed to have done what he said, and I left.

Now I have to finish what I couldn’t finish yesterday.

“Yes, I will not oppose any further if Henry wants to take over.”

“No, I don’t think so. And if I take over, Russell will react. I don’t have enough shares, so I’ll have to keep it.”

“Neither me nor Henry, but who are you thinking of?”

“I’m thinking of setting up a professional manager. We’re watching him as a major shareholder.”

As a professional manager, who are you talking about?

“If that’s the case, I agree. But are you thinking of Russell Trevor?”

“No, the stake of that friend’s faction is over 10%, so even giving him a valiant coat may lead to a misunderstanding.

“Then who are you?”

Henry raised one corner of his mouth and answered.

“Isn’t there a white beast in Tasmania that plays and eats? If that’s your friend, it’s perfect for the boss.”

Ah, that’s right, that’s right.
