All Chapters of The Bet: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

When they finished their meal, Jack left them alone. He was sure that they were not going anywhere as they felt very comfortable in Matthew’s apartment.His boss exaggerated the characters of the people he was supposed to watch over. Jack was sure that the last thing they wanted to do was wander around the nightclubs and start a brawl. All three of them were intelligent, sensible and balanced individuals; all the more reason that he didn’t understand his employer. It was enough for them to have a good time when they had tasty food and each other’s company. He had experienced it the previous evening and earlier that day. It had been a long time since he had such a good time with a lot of laughter as he did with them.He wondered what his boss was trying to achieve. Well, whatever he thought ab

They walked around the Arc de Triomphe and Champs Elysees until almost eleven o'clock. Everyone was so busy admiring the spots Jo had led them to that they even forgot about dinner.“My stomach is craving for food!” Jo reflected first, feeling a pain in her stomach.“You are always hungry.” Patrick complained.“And you are always on a diet, or not hungry.”“You eat for three, and we don't see anything on your perfect ass. It's unfair.” “Heal your thyroid, you will be able to do that too.” Jo said mockingly.“My thyroid is fine.”“Of course. You are a hypo. Go see a doctor at last.”“I don't like doctors.”“So don't eat at all. You will look perfect like me.” Jo stuck her tongue out at him.“I can say the same about you too. Instead of following your proper diet, you eat whatever falls in your hands.”“Stop! You guys started talking nonsense like Mike.” Matthew broke in and became irritated by their argument.“Don’t mention that asshole, please.” Jo pleaded.She didn’t feel like tal

“Do you have any specific place in mind that you would like to go to?” Jo asked Jack, but she hoped that the guys didn’t have any ideas and she would be responsible for planning their city trip today.“No, I don’t. We have time and plenty of opportunities.” He answered honestly. He would like to see many places.“Great! I will take care of it.” She didn’t hide her excitement.“I don’t like your enthusiasm, badass.” Patrick said straight. “Don't plan any murderous wanderings, please. Matthew needs to be in good shape tomorrow, well rested in fact.”“Fine! I will consider that.”“Why don't I trust you?” He didn't like the gleam in her eyes; he knew she was up to something again.“I have no idea!” She said innocently.“I am not joking, badass. We have to be back at three o’clock so that the boys have time to rest and prepare for the journey.”“Really?”“Yes, besides I should take them to the airport so I have to be in a good shape too, because I am not a fan of driving in places I don’t

“Get some rest. I'll take care of the shopping and dinner. I'll let you know when the food is ready.” Patryk suggested, hoping that Jo wouldn’t want to accompany him in the kitchen. He urgently needed a few moments of solitude to think about a few points.“I will have a nap or just lay down for a few minutes.” She said and went straight to the bedroom.‘Maybe I am wrong with my judgment and she is just really tired.’ Patrick speculated looking at her figure disappearing down the corridor. ‘No. Definitely badass has a dilemma no less than mine. Mike or Matthew, or maybe even Luke White this time. For sure, it isn’t that Julian, that asshole!’ He was speculating.He went into the kitchen, hoping to prepare a meal quickly. Before he started unpacking the big bags, he felt the vibration of his phone in his pocket. He pulled it out, and as soon as he saw who was calling, he decided not to answer.‘Give me some time, old man, I'm not a miracle worker.’ He thought about silencing his phone.

“Do you still remember my mother?” Patrick asked at one point.“Yes. I have a few memories of her.” "I don’t, at least most of it. As the years pass by, I remember less and less and it scares me." He added after a moment of hesitation.Jo thought for a while. To be honest, she didn’t remember much either; just pictures or snippets of events, sometimes completely out of context. She didn’t know her aunt well as she was also only a kid then.What she remembered more from her childhood was that she had to look after not only her younger sister Lily, but also after Patrick and his younger brother Samuel. Indeed, she understood that they had lost their mother, and their father could not cope with both, the loss of her and the care of two young children, but she was only a little girl back then.She wanted to grow up as quickly as possible to free herself from all ‘these’ obligations. Jo didn't like the feeling of being a big sister at all. She didn't want to tell him about it now, so as
