Jed's eyes glazed over some certain body parts before he quickly looked away, swallowing nervously. Liana didn't reply to him but she bent and tried flapping the jacket over her unconscious friend."How's the situation outside?" She asked, her voice sounding like music to Jed's ears amidst the chaos."Everywhere is completely consumed by the fire except this place."Jed remembered the man in the hallway and stepped out to check on him. He was still lying motionlessly in that sitting position. "The fire department must be on their way now," He stepped back, looking everywhere else while trying to avoid looking at Liana.He didn't notice her observing his actions. When she realized what he was doing, a small smile appeared on her face.It was like it bloomed her entire facial features even more. Pity, Jed missed the beautiful scene."If they don't hurry up, we might all get toasted by the fire. I don't think Nikki can hold on any longer."She crouched low to feel her friend's pulse whi

"It's good you put them in their place. I bet Matt was ordering the nurse around on purpose," Eric had a different opinion to Ben."More like, trying to delay my treatment.""But we should try to steer clear of them. Jed, whatever you poured on his face won't have effects right?"Jed laughed upon seeing Ben's worried expression. "Aiyo, you don't think I poured some kind of chemical on him right? I only helped heal his wound. He will be fine. He was just overreacting."Ben heaved a sigh of relief and Jed struggled to hold in his laughter. He brought out his phone and saw that the g****e mail app had finally opened.He clicked on the mail lawyer Sean had sent to him when Eric poked him with a finger.Without looking up, he asked,"What?""Ahem... I saw you coming out with that rude girl. What's really going on between you two?" Eric had an aggrieved look. How could Jed like Liana of all girls???"Control your weird thoughts," Jed finally looked up. "We hid in the same place before the fir

There was silence for a few minutes. Ben was utterly confused. If it were a question about tech, he could answer it in a heartbeat. But issues that have to do with businesses, it's like the switch of his IQ goes off.Jed only needed a minute to figure out what Johnny was trying to say. "Are you trying to buy more partnerships?""You are really no fun at all, young master," Johnny's words indicated his guess was right."If the public gets to know about the new VVIP credit card offer and its perks, it would prompt them to invest more in the bank. I bet Skye would be having new wealthy customers soon. That's a smart move."Johnny smiled humbly. "We are trying to gauge the public's agreement for now. It's just a proposal. It is still uncertain if it will flop or succeed."Jed didn't say anything but he could already envision Skye's future progress. Limited membership credit cards weren't common and those that were available could only be afforded by wealthy moguls.If Johnny's plan works o

"Young master, I've made my decision," Mason called out as Jed was setting the table. Ben and Eric took over while he walked up to Mason."So... What is it going to be?" He wasn't scared Mason would reject his offer after all that was such a hard to come by proposal."I agree," Mason sucked in a deep breath like he'd just made a difficult decision. "But I have a condition.""That is?""Each software I formulate that gets released successfully must have my initials as the programmer."Jed didn't expect this would be his request. Seems like the poor man was scarred by the treatment he'd gotten from the Jetti's and Meta previously."No problem. Is that all?"Mason was surprised that Jed readily agreed. At that moment, he subconsciously pledged his loyalty to this amiable young master."Yes, that's all sir.""What about the lawsuit?"Mason wasn't as fretful as he was earlier as he declared,"I will testify whichever way you want me to and also bear witness to their wrongdoings."A smile fin

Once Jed got outside, his phone vibrated with a message notification. He checked it only to see a reminder from Irwin.[Boss, I have arranged a meeting for you and the employees just like you requested. Be at the company by 4pm]Jed paused, he had completely forgotten that in his anger, he asked Irwin to arrange a meeting for him. But he definitely couldn't attend that meeting.It was still too dangerous to reveal his identity now. As he walked forward in search of Ben and Jed, he pondered on what he was going to do.He couldn't avoid this meeting but he also couldn't attend it. "I always asked you to keep your anger in check! Look what you've done to yourself. How would you explain a low CGPA to your parents?" Ben's worried tone disrupted Jed's thoughts.He looked up and saw the two he had been searching for storming towards him. Eric's face was completely red with anger written all over it.But despite the way Ben was lashing out at him, he didn't respond."Guys, what's wrong?" Jed
