JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 60
At five o’clock in the evening. Not a single soul had been called inside, and Jim was so frustrated he started laughing all of a sudden, making the others wonder if he had gone crazy because Jim wasn’t even looking at a mobile or a tablet. After waiting for more than two hours, doing nothing but watching garden lizards and squirrels roam about on the lawn, Jim long reached his limit. The only difference was that instead of crying he was laughing, so as to not look pathetic. Jim was someone who avoided queues, whether it be at supermarkets or polling stations, but now, he couldn’t avoid the slow torture. He very much wanted to leave, but because Julia and Daniel were also involved in the issue, he swallowed his frustrations. After laughing long enough to release his negative emotions, Jim suddenly went calm as a church mouse. This behavior also seemed weird to others around him. A couple of them couldn’t wait anymore and left. Jim wished everyone else would leave, but the reality w
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 61
As Carsen and his family members were walking back to the main gate, the guard saw Jim tagging along with them and quickly intervened, saying, “Sir, this one’s a poor thief and a trickster. Don’t let him fool—”BAM~!Carsen swiftly slapped the guard, leaving him shocked.“Watch your words,” Carsen growled at him. “How dare you call this esteemed guest a thief?”The guard looked extremely baffled and hurt as well because Carsen didn’t hold back in putting strength into the slap.“Apologize to him right away,” Carsen ordered, shaking like an alpha grizzly bear.The guard frowned and then quickly lowered his head before Jim, “I’m sorry, sir. I must have mistaken you for someone else.”“Forget it,” Jim waved his hand rather indifferently and looked at Carsen. “Let’s go, sir. We can’t waste even a second with this case.”“You’re right.” Carsen and Jim hurried first into Carsen’s personal office.When Jim played the audio on his mobile, it was so shocking, Carsen sent his family members out

By midnight, two security guards were stationed outside Julia’s house. They were wearing casual outfits and were roaming like ordinary people, but they were hiding guns in many places, including many corners of Julia’s house.After Jim told Julia and Daniel about the guards, he said he had to return to his home because Rena would have long come back. Though Daniel wanted him to stay, Julia told him to go home.Jim told Daniel to be brave and take care of his mother.He then headed home.At Lola’s house.Marc was talking with his two daughters while having breakfast. “It’s been more than a day since Jim left the house. His phone is switched off, so I can’t help but wonder what kind of stupid habits he’s learning outside. It’s never a good sign when a man, especially a jobless man, stays outside home for a long time.” His target was his eldest daughter, but she was calmly eating. “Rena… did you hear what I said?”“I did,” Rena looked rather tired because she had to walk a lot during her
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 63
Jim’s sweet words melted Rena’s heart enough to give him the green signal. However, she asked him for some time to arrange the 5000 dollars.Jim understood from her words that she probably wasn’t planning to tell her mother she needed 5000 dollars for some personal reasons. She might rather ask her friends for some money. Jim knew that this wasn’t a good move, but how could he tell her that when he was the one receiving help?“I hope she won’t take the money for interest, but 5000 dollars isn’t a small amount. Even if we add 20% yearly interest, it will become 6000 dollars in a year. If it’s monthly, that’s even worse,” Jim thought. “If Lola learns about this, she won’t let Rena be. I have to warn Rena as soon as possible, but in a way she’ll understand it, instead of thinking I’m just being too bothersome.”Somewhere else in the city.Bernard Williams was traveling in a special SUV personally built for him. This looked much more classier than Carsen’s vehicle.“I heard Carsen’s daugh
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 64
Bob and Lola came out of the museum, wearing masks that covered their noses and mouths, so that people wouldn’t recognize them.They both quickly got into a taxi that was waiting for them and left. The driver was also a worker of the same company, so they could freely talk about what happened inside the museum.“How did you come to know about this company called Silent Soul?” Bob curiously asked. “From outside, it looked like a regular museum. Honestly, I didn’t believe you until I was shown video footage of all the auctions they made in the past. It’s a multi billion dollar business. So, how did you come to know about them?”“It’s a secret, so I can’t tell you,” Lola said.“Oh, it’s fine. I’m just glad that I can sell those paintings I drew when I was horny,” Bob laughed a little. “I never showed those paintings to anybody, not even my ex-wife, but I’m happy they finally became useful thanks to your idea of selling them. In two weeks, I’ll be able to pay you the money you want, but o
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 65
Jim and Rena didn’t spend as much time showering as both of them wanted because Rena’s mobile rang multiple times, and she had to leave.Jim, however, spent more time relaxing in the bathtub. The cold water relaxed his muscles very much.[You look so happy, but did you forget that you need to make your aunt pay for me to recognize you as my master?] Joe reminded him.“She’s changed her mind and is willing to buy a restaurant for me,” Jim reasoned. “So, what’s the point of taking revenge now?”[She made you suffer for years after marriage, Jim. She blatantly told you that she won’t give you a penny.] Joe blurted. [Such a woman wouldn’t change her mind overnight, definitely not for a good reason. You have all the more reason to be worried now because she wants to help you.]Jim’s expression changed. “You think she has some ulterior motive?”[I’d be more surprised if she didn’t.]Jim frowned. “She definitely said she won’t give my money back, but we don’t know for sure if she cursed the
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 66
Marc didn’t go out alone in the car but took Shiney with him. It was actually Shiney who wanted to ride the car at night, but Lola wouldn’t agree to that, so Marc had to take permission from Lola.After driving for a while, they bought ice creams and had a great time before returning home at around one o’clock in the night.To Shiney’s surprise, Jim was talking with some stranger—Jim’s bodyguard in disguise—outside the gate. Seeing them, Jim came and opened the car door.“Thanks,” Shiney said and stepped out. She lifted up the keys in her hand. “Want to go for a ride?”“I don’t think so,” Marc quickly came and pulled the keys out of her hand before parking the car inside the house and then told Jim and Shiney to come inside as he needed to properly close the gates and switch on the alarm system in case some thieves tried to break in and steal the car.“Driving at night, and that, too, a lambo… it’s dangerous,” Jim told Shiney. “What’s more, you took your father along. Do you have any

The next morning.Jim had been waiting outside in his suit for almost an hour. Shiney was the first to come out. Seeing Jim in the black suit, she cast a romantic smile at him. “I never thought that the most handsome man in the world would become my… brother-in-law. God surely has something against me.”Jim heard her loud and clear, so he said, “Maybe he’s kept aside someone who’s better and more fitting to you.”“I highly doubt that,” she snorted and then came and sat on the hood of the lambo.Moments later, Lola came out of the house and yelled at Shiney straight away, “Where are you sitting? Get your ass off the car!”Shiney quickly got up.“Couldn’t you find a better place to sit at?” Lola scolded her some more.“M-Mom, I was…” Shiney tried to explain, but Lola didn’t let her. Jim was amused from seeing Shiney get scolded.Eventually, everyone in the house came out as they were all going to Drake's restaurant, the one previously owned by Marcus Drake, Jim’s dad.Jim wanted to ente
