JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 395
“She took the car?!” Marc’s mouth wide-opened. “Where?”Jim shrugged his shoulders.“What do you mean by that?” Marc tried to grab his shirt, but Jim held his wrist first. Marc frowned. “Why didn’t you stop her?”“I just didn’t want to see her suffer more,” Jim replied.Marc shook his hand free. “Arguing with you is useless. I’ll find her on my own.” He began to walk away but briefly stopped and glanced at Rena, “As a father, I’m telling you… you’ll only suffer if you stay with this man. You said a poor couple can be happier than a rich couple if they have understanding, but how can they be happy when one or both of them go to bed with empty stomachs? Forget about being peaceful, they’d quarrel every time they needed to buy something. They’d be waiting for the 1st of every month every other day of the month. Such a life doesn’t give you happiness. With Jim, you’ll lead exactly that kind of life because he’s the bringer of bad luck. So, come home as soon as you feel like it, even if yo

Three hours later.Jim and Rena came out of the hotel room, both of them rubbing and pushing each other by the shoulders. Jim was smiling, but Rena wasn’t smiling much.“You wasted three hours of time,” she mumbled. “I’m going to miss my first interview.”“Oh, I feel bad for that company,” Jim replied.“Huh,” Rena’s mouth twisted. “If I don’t get qualified today, I’m going to give it to you tonight.”“Give what?” he asked, intrigued.“The stick,” she said. “I’ll tie you up to the bed, and then beat your ass until you run out of tears.”“Scary, my lady! But it’s also arousing in its own way.”“Ah, shut up.” Rena blushed. Even though she looked angry, she was in a good mood. After all, both of them had a very good time just now. It made them forget all the pain and feel peaceful right now, even though their future seemed uncertain right now.Jim put his hand around her shoulder and said, “I wish you the best, Your Highness.”“Thanks, but stop touching my ear,” she pushed his hand away.
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 397
Austin called Rena’s mobile.Her mobile rang, but she didn’t answer.Austin forced out a smile and called her again.The result was the same the second time.“She must be busy right now. But I’ll call her just once more,” Austin said and called her.“Put it on speaker,” Steve stated.The call rang for a few seconds. Austin thought she wouldn’t answer this time as well, but she did. “Hello.”“Hello, Mrs. Rena. This is Austin.”“I know who you are. Why did you call me?” Rena spoke very informally.“I know I hurried, but I want you back in the project,” Austin said. “I’ll pay you more.”“You think money will make up for everything?” Rena angrily asked. “Even though you were a ladies’ man, I really respected you because you had the passion for work, but you showed me your real nature when I’m at my weakest. Besides, you found someone who you thought could replace me, didn’t you? That’s why I left your company. So, why do you want me back now? Is the project not coming out the way the clie
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 398
Jim walked straight to the entrance of the building, but the guards stopped him.“Do you have an appointment?” one of the guards asked.“You cannot enter the building in this attire,” another guard said. “Go and wear formal clothes and then come back.”“Why should I worry about appointments and attire when I’m walking into my company?” Jim responded with a question.“Your company?” The guards looked at each other and burst into laughter. “We have a mental case here.” They stepped forward. “Let us pick him up and toss him away.”However, Just then, a Ferrari stopped by. One of the guards quickly rushed over and received the Rivers family members. Tom and his dad and sister were present.Tom saw Jim and recognized him. “You… You’re the guy who won in a wrestling competition against me.”“Ah, yeah,” Jim still remembered it.Tom shook his hand with him while his sister seemed interested in Jim. “What are you doing here?”“The guards are stopping me from entering. I was talking with them,

Steve Millman was talking with someone on his mobile.“He is likely going to come to your office today,” Bernard was speaking from the other side.“Lord is?” Steve was startled. “Today?”“Treat him well. I’ll be sending you his photo, so don’t mess up, or you’re the only one who’s going to suffer, Steve,” Bernard said and ended the call.As Bernard waited, every second felt long.More than fifteen long seconds later, he received a notification. He saw the photo. “So, this is Jim Draknor. He looks to be barely thirty. No, he could be younger.” He gritted his teeth. “I have to bow to this brat?” His ego felt very hurt right now.He called someone on his mobile and said, “I sent you a picture. Find out his identity immediately.”“Yes, sir. Just give me a minute.”Steve stayed on the call, and then the person from the other side said, “Sir Steve, I found information on him. He used to be an ordinary chef, but only a day ago, his name has been spreading through the underground circles all
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 400
On the ground floor, more than a dozen guards were lying on the floor. Some were still conscious but were in too much pain to get back.There were many people standing, but most of them were not even willing to step forward or get themselves involved in whatever was happening.Jim was still holding the broken arm of Austin who was crying blood at this point. Jim had defeated the guards while holding Austin’s arm. And this brought greater pain to Austin. The only reason he didn’t pass out from pain was because Jim bolstered his mind with psychic vivre so that he’d be able to endure it to an extent. Austin was not aware of this. Even though he was able to bear the pain, the pain was still there. He had to withstand the indescribable pain that throbbed all across his arm, especially near his elbow and shoulder.“Y-You monster…” Caylene couldn’t believe what had happened. She was not expecting Jim to defeat the guards so easily. “Just take some money and get lost from here.”“You can’t so

Jim put his hand forward, and Steve gently held it and kissed it.Lola’s heart, brain, lungs, and many other organs seemed to be suddenly failing to work at this very instance. The mobile and handbag in Caylene’s hand dropped. Her dad tilted his head back in stupendous shock.Marc looked utterly dumbfounded.Tom and his dad and sister seemed supremely flummoxed.Austin, on the other hand, looked horrified. Elisha’s face also froze in a bit of horror.Rena was the only one who was able to move. “W-What is this, Jim?” She stepped forward. She knew who Steve was, so she looked at Steve. “Why are you bowing to my husband? What is this? Why did you call him Lord Jim?”“He’s from the line of kings, so how else would you want me to call him?” Steve replied, still kneeling even though it was hurting him to do that at his age.“F-From the line of Kings? Who? Jim?” Rena looked very confused.“I cannot speak more about the Lord while in his presence,” Steve added. “So, please forgive me for not

“If you want to keep working in this company, then you need to do two things,” Jim said, and Lola already found herself losing her posture. “First thing. Give me my restaurant back.”“Done,” Lola didn’t even hesitate to agree. “What’s the second one?”Jim smiled and said, “There are multiple cafes in this building. I want you to open a new cafe and work as the main cook there. You’ll be taking care of that shop for the next four years. And then I’ll take reviews from the employees. If you get a majority of good votes, then I’ll promote you to a financier level. Otherwise…”Lola was shaking in rage. “You want me to cook and sell food like you and your dad did? Go to hell! I’m never doing that!” she shouted and walked away in haste.Marc followed her, but he pleasantly smiled at Jim.Jim, however, didn’t even bat an eyelid.After Marc and Lola left the building, with the latter looking extremely humiliated, Jim turned to face Rena, “Was I too harsh?”Rena slightly shook her head. “She h
