A Life Beyond Limits (Jack Holland) novel Chapter 896

"As It Was Before" was quiet for a long moment. Of course, she had Jack's contact information. But in reality, she was just one of Jack's friends. She couldn't address him however she wanted like she did in the game, and she definitely couldn't express her real feelings for him.

She had to hide her true feelings in real life because she was saddled with too many concerns. The only way she was able to survive was to put on a mask to hide her real self.

"As It Was Before" stared at Jack's game character as if she was staring at his real person. She was slow to type her next reply.

"Jack, what should I do if I regret my earlier actions?"

"Regret?"

Jack didn't understand why she would say such a thing.

"I regret what I said earlier. I still want to keep in touch with you even after you get married to Feena in the future. What should I do?"

"You can contact me anytime. We're friends after all," he replied.

"But I don't want to just be friends. What I want is… a relationship that is similar to the one you have with Feena. Can I have that?"

"As It Was Before"'s eyes were glimmering with desperate hope, but Jack was blind to it.

"Of course not," he answered, realizing that she was getting much too emotional.

"You're right. Of course I can't have that. I always thought that I was above needing a title—that I could leave everything behind.

"But when you said you were going to marry Feena, I realized that my heart was hurting like crazy. I can't accept this reality."

"As It Was Before" expressed her feelings honestly, but Jack had nothing to say to any of it.

Exhausted from the events of the day, Jack quickly succumbed to the embrace of sleep. He dreamt that "As It Was Before" had truly appeared in his life.

She morphed into the different women he had relationships with in the past, starting with Amelia before transforming into Calista, Bella, who was still far and away in the capital, and finally Phoebe. However, he still had no idea who "As It Was Before" could be.

The next morning, Jack buried himself in work from the moment he woke up. After acquiring Genesis Games, Jack planned to invest a large capital into the company to aid the team in developing a new game, which would eventually allow Genesis Games to rise from the ashes.

He knew that it would be a long and arduous process, and he had a headache thinking about the amount of money he would need to invest into the company. Although Haven Net was projected to have an astounding market value, projections did nothing to improve its less than spectacular monetization ability.

In an effort to lessen the cash flow burden, a plan had been drawn up to turn Haven Net into a public-listed company. Since Haven Net wielded extraordinary power, Iselva's Apson Share Market, Masdaq Stock Exchange, and Tarthy Stock Exchange had all knocked on Haven Net's doors to extend an invitation to public-list the company in their region.

There was not a single stock market in the world that would reject such an excellent company's stocks.
