JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 363
The next day.Shiney was having brunch outside at an open restaurant. She saw the magazines on the small shelf outside, and one of the business magazines had the picture of her mother on the front page.“The prodigious financier?” Shiney raised her eyebrows. “Yeah, she’s talented when it comes to profiting off the money that others earn with her sweat and blood. All in the name of interest. And she wants me to learn her business craft. I would never do it because I’m not like her. I don’t want to live by leaching other people through interest.”Just then, someone came out of nowhere and sat on the other side of the table.Shiney’s expression briefly froze because it was Jim.“Red beans and rice?” Jim looked at her plate. “You like beef, don’t you? Want me to order that?”Shiney frowned. “What are you doing here? Did they send you to bring me back home?”“No, they can’t do that.”“Mm?”“Because I left their home, too,” Jim said, startling her.“W-What?” Shiney was pleasantly surprised.

Bob was watching Enron and Rena eating at the restaurant. He was wearing a clown’s outfit, holding a chocolate box in his hand.Bob was the one who put the nano-chip in Rena’s brain so that he could later control her if she were to reject him.However, he did not expect some random guy to pop out of nowhere and control Rena with the same chip he put in her.“Enron of the Nimo tribe…” Bob was grinding his teeth very much. “How dare you try to take the woman I have my eyes on for a long time! Your death won’t be pleasant!”Bob gave chocolates to the kids that asked him for chocolates.After the children left, Bob grinned, “Those little guys don’t know that I mixed a lot of ‘nasty’ things while making those chocolates.” He felt sadistic pleasure, knowing that these kids would be eating all the sick stuff he put in those chocolates. This was just one of the ways he attained pleasure.“But this Enron doesn’t look like an easy target,” Bob thought. “Should I contact Hell Mask first and ask

Jim and Shiney were traveling in a Benz car.“Where did you get this costly vehicle?” she asked.“Rent,” he said.“Oh, where exactly are we going now?” she asked. “And how exactly are you going to buy the restaurant? Did you forget that she asked for twenty million dollars for the restaurant? Or was it thirty? I don’t quite remember. She might even raise the price this time. How are you going to pay that much amount?”“You will see soon,” Jim replied.Shiney smiled from seeing his confidence. “You didn’t loot some bank or something, did you?”Jim smiled and said, “No.”“What were you doing these past couple of weeks, Jim?” she asked.Jim’s expression changed, but he remained silent.“If you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t force you,” Shiney said. “I’m just that glad that you are back. At the same time, if there’s anything troubling you, then do tell me. I’ll help you in any way I can. I want to prove myself useful, too, you know.”“You are going to learn how to cook along with th

All the four men couldn’t even jump after Jim shot them in their feet. They simply collapsed there and then greatly cringed in pain.Shiney was pleasantly thrilled and shocked to see that. “That’s my Jim!” she almost jumped in delight.Jim put the gun at one of their foreheads but said nothing. And that man began to pee in his pants, which grossed Shiney out, and she went back into the car.“If you threaten me again, I’ll put the bullets in your brains next,” Jim warned them by pointing the gun at one after another, and they replied by peeing some more.And then, Jim went to a nearby home. The people living in that house had just shut their doors and windows because of the gunshots.But when Jim knocked on their door, they had to open it.The head of the house, an old man, opened the door.Jim entered the home.It was a small one bedroom house, with the hall and the kitchen combined. They didn’t even have stairs leading to their rooftop.An old couple, a young lady, and two children w

As they headed to the restaurant, Shiney asked, “Why do you still want to work as a chef, Jim? With your skills, you could easily become a tutor and earn a lot of money, right?” “I’m not good enough to teach others, Shiney,” he replied. “Stop kidding. You’ve been cooking with Uncle Marcus since you could walk,” she retorted. “If you are not good enough to teach others, then no chef in this world is good enough to teach others.” “I’ve always watched my dad cook with care,” Jim said. “Even when cutting onions, he’d use different techniques for different dishes to bring out different flavors out of onions. Everyone I see him putting in so much effort for every single dish, it’s like a slap in my face, you know. It tells me to work hard every single day and never take anything in cooking for granted. My dad could tell if the salt and spices were perfect just from seeing the color of the dish, or by sniffing it, but I still have to taste it every single time. I’m nowhere near as good as

The moment Jim agreed with her idea, Shiney looked at Elisha, “You approve of what? Do you think your approval matters? When was the last time you looked at yourself in the mirror? I bet you think you’re a ten, but I tell you’re not even one. A thief thinks everyone steals. And you’re worse than any thief out there because all you think is about ruining others’ lives instead of living your own. Now, do you want me to keep talking about you, or is that enough?”Elisha’s mouth stayed open for a little bit. “I was trying to be friendly, and you treated me like I’m a bad person. Do you know that I’m recording this whole conversation? I will post this online and ruin your image!”“Good luck with that, Auntie,” Shiney said.Elisha gnashed her teeth. “How dare you call me Auntie! I’m not that older than you!” she picked up her cappuccino and threw it at Shiney.Shiney raised the window just in time. Nevertheless, a few drops fell inside the car.“This woman is crazy,” Jim opined. “She has a

At Draknor Finance.“This is your office now,” Steve Millman, the CEO of Draknor Finance, put keys to the chamber in Lola’s hand.“Thank you, Mr. Millman,” Lola spoke very respectfully. She didn’t show her excitement and was highly professional.“I’ll see you later then,” Steve said and left.It was a 1000 sqft chamber, with multiple subrooms in it. The main part of the chamber, the hall itself, was over 600 sq ft in area. There were refrigerators, coffeemakers, wine shelves, book shelves, magazine and newspaper holders, sofas that could be converted into beds and many more.But that wasn’t all.Lola walked to her majestic glass table where every item implicitly screamed quality.There was a holder for coupons from big stores, both offline and online. It was full of valid coupons which had at least fifty percent discount for everything.“Yeah, this is what is luxury,” Lola couldn’t help but smile as she felt like she was finally beginning to attain the power and freedom she had always

Lola came home with the divorce documents. “Rena, where are you? I brought the documents. You just need to sign them, and then go and get Jim to sign them. And it’ll all be over.”As she looked for Rena, she found her in the first floor’s living room, talking with a big man who was so huge Lola was startled by his sheer size.“W-Who is this man?” Lola asked, thinking for a second if this man was an intruder and was holding Rena hostage.“Hello, ma’am,” this big man introduced himself. “I’m Ronny. I’ve come to meet you.”“Meet me?”“Yes, Rena told me about you, and so I want to give you money for 20% interest rate,” Ronny said.“How much are we talking about?” Lola asked.“1 million dollars,” Ronny said.“What?” Lola’s eyes slightly widened.“Is that not enough?”“No, no, it’s much more than I expected, Mr. Ronny,” Lola smiled and looked at her daughter. “Rena, you didn’t ever tell me that you had such a precious friend.”“He’s a man of few words, Mom,” Rena said. “So I didn’t want to
