“You punk!”“Mother? What's happening?” Harley ran over. “I was only explaining the obvious to your mother. The products on display today are fake.”“What? I see you have lost your mind.”A thin smile appeared on Jake's face and he put his hands into his pocket and pulled out a neatly folded sheet of paper. “There's the proof, go through it.”Harley snatched the paper from him and read aloud. “Maris Leather bag. Leather purchased from Duality foils. Quality,Polyurethane 60%Cotton 10%Nylon 7%Acrylic 5%Results: Fake and substandard.What's the meaning of this, Jake?” Harley asked. Amelia snatched the paper from Harley and looked at it. She went further to check the details in the paper and found it to be true. The paper also had a legal symbol that could be used as a legal proof in court.“Nonsense!” she said and tore up the paper.“I see that you are mad. Don't worry mother, I'll get the security to throw him out,” Harley assured her. “I know those bags are fake. Even the one
Amelia found her way to the bathroom and touched up her makeup, then walked calmly back to the event. But on getting there, she saw new sets of goods on display! Her plan was to announce Jake as the owner, then tell everyone that he was the one who purchased those fake products. However, Jake beat her to it, he won again.After Richard told Jake that the Kents were planning to sell out fake products, he ordered a delivery of the real and original ones. The plan was to replace them once Amelia signs over the company. He knew that Amelia would not let him take the company as well as win the auction. He knew how schemy she was and dealt with her accordingly. The goods were separated in two groups, hers and another group. She screamed and cursed Jake in her head, she couldn't do it out loud. “Once he sells off the ones I bought, I'll tell everyone that it's fake and Jake would be a sore loser,” she decided.Jake gave orders to his lawyers in the car and he alighted afterwards. Scarcely
Amelia was green with envy. She found it very hard to believe that her plans failed through because Jake planned meticulously and won the hearts of the audience. The man took up the microphone and continued.“Alright, just before we round up, this exhibition was merged with an educational session, and it's the courtesy of a new management! Let's let the former CEO tell us more on that.”Amelia stood up and forced a smile on her face. She was met by the piercing eyes of the two lawyers, seated in the front pew. “That's right. Kent group has changed hands,” she dropped the bombshell. Her family members opened their mouths in shock. There was no way that was true, right? They were all clapping a few minutes ago, parading all over the place like swans because they knew they were going to gain so much from the exhibition. But here was their mother, bursting the bubbles and giving them the surprise of their lives and news of the century. The man took it up from there and gave all the hono
Jake spent the following day crouching over files and studying them. Despite his numerous visits to their different companies, he still haven't covered up to one tenth of the companies he owned. He was going through the files as his grandfather insisted and Richard was there to help him if need be. By evening, he decided to take a break. Then he recalled that there was a get together the following day. He went to his wardrobe and picked out a shirt and trousers. They were not very fashionable but they were decent and good looking. He gave them to one of the household servants and ordered her to dry clean the clothes. The D-day for the gathering was finally here. Jake got dressed in the outfit he had picked the previous day. His driver was dutifully waiting for him downstairs. “Good morning, Mr Frederick. Which car are we going in, sir?”“Get the Bugatti,” Jake responded. The driver, Ken, did as he was told and drove the Bugatti out of the garage. Jake got in and the journey began.
“Did you not hear? He's been kicked out of the family,” another clarified. “Hahaha. Who knows, as a pathetic fellow, he must have gone to beg them for the car after they made it big in the last exhibition.”“Right! That's very true. You have a point there.”Jake heard them clearly but he didn't utter a word. He would speak, but not now, he had no time for these small frys. He made his way into the room and sat down on a seat. The event started and the noisy boys outside came inside. There were already listed and lines up activities for the day and they all began. Nearly all the guys were richly dressed and even the girls. As the day wore on, Elvis got audience and asked,“Where's our Honda accord driver?” He said this in a loud voice and everyone laughed. They all turned in Jake's direction. “Oh. There he is, having the best meal of his life,” Elvis continued. “I’m reminded of those days when Jake delivered my gifts to my girlfriend from Lily high,” one guy from Springton Univers
This time, Jake could not lie low. His facial expression changed to one filled with rage and fury and his eyes blood shot. How dare that slimy bastard empty his plate of food on him? He could keep calm for their taunts and insults but definitely not this one. While everyone was staring, waiting to see Jake's reaction, over ninety percent expected him to kneel before Kelvin and beg for mercy, so that he does not deal with him even more. Contrary to their expectations, Jake stood up and grabbed Kelvin by the collar. He gave him a slap and stretched his hands towards another plate of food on the table. He too emptied it on Kelvin. This happened in few seconds and by the time the onlookers recovered, Kelvin was drenched in Korean sauce while dropped down his face and onto his impeccable suit and white shirt. “What?”“Jake? Do you want to die?”“Have you lost your mind?”“Oh dear. Jake had better said his last prayers now.”“Great. Now, Kelvin will deal with that low life once and for al
The bouncers pointed at the three men and Alberto's men went for them immediately. With a dirty slap, they sent the three of them sprawled on the floor. Jake touched his face and saw there was blood on it. He raised his hands and called out to Alberto.“Ahhh. There's blood on the young master. They will pay for it ten folds. Pray, young master, don't escalate the issue. I will handle it, please.”Alberto gave more orders to his men to beat the four boys as well as the bouncers to pulp. Bones were cracked, faces were disfigured and they men yelled pleaded for mercy. Jake took out his phone again and sent a text to Richard. “Get rid of Mr Presley of Medo Hall company right now!”A minute later, he received a text from Richard,“Done sir!”Jake put his phone back into his pocket and smiled to himself. “Never in your lives will you all mess with me.”He went out of the hall and got to the back where Alberto and his men were dealing with the culprits. When Alberto saw him, he asked,“S
“It's a certain handsome man with the last name Rang. He's said to be a foreigner because it was his bank account that was used to make the payment for the purchasing of the company. We will find him in the near future!”Jake heaved a sigh of relief. He wasn't caught. He had made a smart move when he asked Richard to make the payment for that company with a legal business name. “That's great. Soonest the man would be found and you will thank him in person,” he intoned. “That's right. I need to thank him so much for elevating me. He's my benefactor and that reminds me, my dear friend. In two weeks, everything will be ready and I'll have the right to assign roles. Send in your CV so that I'll put you in the list for the qualified workers. You know that you are a graduate and deserve a better job too!”“Oh right. I'll do that as soon as I get home, thank you very much,” Jake responded but he knew that he would definitely come up with an excuse. He couldn't trouble his friend to give h
