“ I guess it's true. He isn't worth her at all.” Weston also stepped in, gracing the students with his charming smile. Weston had always been considered the most handsome and wealthy guy in Brooklyn university NY because he happens to be the youngest son of one of the richest families in New York city. He is known to be a playboy and a flirt who could spend all his money on ladies. “ How come you were able to pay your tuition fees, Jake? I can remember vividly well that I saw you delivering pizza for people.“ Zara asked and all eyes fell on Jake but he ignored them straight out and took out his headphone. “ That bastard! I will kill him myself!“ Weston gritted his teeth and was about to walk to Jake’s seat but Zara held his hand, stopping him from going. “ Let him be, we will deal with him after class.” Zara smiled and kissed Weston on his lips in front of everyone inside the class. “ Hey! Lovebirds! Go to your seat right now” the lecturer walked in. “ Okay sir.” Zara said and
Immediately Jake punched Weston, the cafeteria erupted with gaps, shocks and wide eyes as everyone stared unbelievably with wide eyes.They just couldn't digest the fact that Jake, the bottle picker, stood up against Weston who is the biggest bully in Brooklyn university.Weston stood up after he had regained himself and moved closer to Jake about to punch him but the dean of the school stepped in.“ Hey Weston, enough!” The dean shouted which made Weston glared at him and was about to throw a punch at Jake but some security men caught him by the arms.“ Let me go, bastards! I will make sure you lose your job in the school, I will make sure of it” Weston shouted as he was being dragged by the security men.“ Follow me Jake” the dean ordered coldly and Jake did as he was told. Even after the two main characters left, the students in the cafeteria wouldn't stop talking about the scene.Richard stood up from the ground and started searching for his glasses with his hand since he couldn't
After school, Jake decided to resign from the bar where he worked and also catch up with his friend Max.He took a cab which stopped just in front of the bar and he made his way inside. On getting inside, he met his boss, Mr Tony Rogers.“ Good day Mr Rogers” Jake smiled immediately he saw his boss who also returned the smile.“ Why didn't you inform me that you will return back to school? I heard it from Drex and some of the workers” Mr Tony said.“ I am sorry, it was so sudden that I was too occupied to come see you.” Jake replied and sat on one of the chairs inside the bar with Mr Tony.“ Drex!” Mr Tony called and Drex came running to attend to his boss.“ Get Jake a soft drink” Mr Tony said and Drex’s eyes widened as he threw a disgusting glare at Jake.“ Sir for him? Can he get it himself? The fact that he returned back to university doesn't mean I should entertain him when he is also a worker here” Drex said and Mr Tony glared at Drex.“ Drex! Do you wish to lose your job?” Mr
Jake made sure he went to the most expensive bar in Brooklyn. The bar was beautifully built for the spoiled kids of the rich and top tier families. Getting to the front of the bar, the hefty bodyguard didn't allow Jake in at first.“ Which family are you from? If you're just a church rat, please leave” the bodyguard said to Jake who was surprised. He never thought that the bar would discriminate between the rich from the poor, all he thought was that the bar sells only expensive drinks.“ Please let me in, my friend is also coming” Jake didn't feel like revealing his true identity to many people so he tried begging so as to go in but the bodyguard pushed him back roughly, which almost made him fall to the ground.“ From the mode of your dressing, I can tell you're a poor boy who wants to enter and steal from the rich kids inside this bar” the second bodyguard said and they both laughed. Jake was still pleading with them when Weston and Zara walked to them.“ Jake, what are you doing
Weston chuckled after hearing what Jake said.“ How about you join us today?” Zara asked with a smirk. She was busy cooking a plan in her head that was why she invited Jake to join them.“ I am not interested, after all, I am not here to party with you all” Jake declined and was about to leave with Max when Weston spoke, and his words made Jake stop walking.“ Is it because you're broke that is why you refused to join? Again, I have forgotten that you're a delivery boy so you have nothing to offer” Weston said which made Jake fold his fist in anger.Weston was pushing him to the wall and wanted him to get provoked but it was taking the last strength in Jake not to walk up to Weston and punch the life out of him.“ I will join you guys, I can't let my pride be hurt this way” Jake turned around and smiled before walking to them.Everyone shifted as if he was a plague which is to be avoided.Seeing what was going on, Max was getting angry at how his friend was treated but Jake paid less a
Nevertheless, the waiter took the card to go take out the bills from the card.Weston smirked, he was waiting patiently for the waiter to return with anger all over his face telling him that the card Jake gave him was a fake.“ Jake, first you ordered a drink for $10,000, now you're paying with a black card, where did you get all this money from? Did you steal?” One of Weston's followers said, which made Jake chuckle.“ Why don't you ask Weston where he got his money from, why ask me?” Jake asked with an expressionless face.“ We all know that Weston is the son of a mayor, but what about you? You're just an orphan who is a delivery boy” Zara said, touching a sore spot in Jake's heart but he had to smile to cover it up.The waiter returned with a smile on his face as he returned Jake's card with both hands.“ We would like to make you one of our VIP customers, if you don't mind. You're the first to buy this wine worth $10,000” the waiter said and Weston folded his fist under the table.
Soon, the waiter returned with Jake’s wine, 1945 Romanée-Conti Grand Cru, and after opening and serving Jake, he returned to get Weston's wine, but he was already mad and was ready to transfer all his aggression on the poor waiter who was just doing his job.“ Are you really playing fair here bastard?” Weston gritted his teeth angrily. The fact that Jake was getting all the spotlight ignited more of his anger.“ I just had to get his orders first since he has more money. You're a regular here so you know how it works” the waiter said politely but Weston chuckled.“ His has more money? Do you know who I am?” Weston haunted, making the guy tremble. The guy wasn't afraid because Weston would beat him up, he was afraid because he might lose his job if his boss finds out about what happened.“ I am sorry Sir Weston” the waiter bowed his head but Weston was just too angry to accept his apology.“ Knee down here and lick my shoes” Weston ordered but the waiter didn't move.“ What are you w
Seeing that Weston already left angrily, Zara also left the club to catch up with him.She met him outside the club, waiting for a cab to come by so he can board on.“ What are you doing here? Where's your car?” Zara asked curiously with a frown on her face, but Weston ignored her.He was in no mood to talk to her because she was one of the causes of his misfortune.“ Talk to me, Weston, where's your car?” Zara came faced him, looking him in his eyes.“ Aren't you the cause? The waiter ceased my car because I couldn't pay for the wine I bought.” Weston shouted angrily, making Zara to flinch in fear.“ How? I thought you had enough money since you left to call your older brother for some money” Zara said slowly.“ Yes, but he said he had no money to give to me because they are preparing for my father's election as the prime minister, so since I have no money to pay, I had to give them my car so when I pay them, I would get my car back” Weston gritted his teeth in anger.“ It's all that
After lectures, Jake decided to take a stroll around Brooklyn just before 8pm, when he was supposed to meet with his future fiancé.His phone ding and he took it to have a look.His eyes widened when he saw an alert of $200 million.Instinctively, He immediately dialled Samson Chen's line, and as if waiting for his call, Samson picked up.“ Hello, Young Master.” He started. “ Have you seen the money sent to you?”“ Why did you send me such an amount of money?” Jake asked.“ It is the profit from one of the subsidiary companies under the Acrobatic Empire.” Samson Chen went ahead to break everything down to Jake, but it seems he didn't understand anything. “ I know it's hard for you to understand how it works, but if you don't mind, I can bring the documents containing all the transactions for the past years.”“ No, no!” Jake was fast to decline. He didn't want to draw attention. “ Get it ready, I will come to you myself. How about we meet in a secluded place with fewer people?”“ Sure,
Jake was so tired from the previous day's activities that he had slept off, forgetting that he had a lecture at 8am.The king's size bed in his room was so comfy that he didn't realise that he was already late for his class.The ringing of his phone woke him up, causing him to groan, as he reached out to grab his phone.The call was from Williams, and even without checking who the caller was, Jake picked up.“ Young Master.” Williams called from the other end of the phone, while Jake rubbed his sleepy eyes, sitting upright to listen to what Williams had to say.“ Why did you call?” Jake said in a husky morning voice, his hair scattered like that of a bed nest.“ Grandpa asked me to pass a message across to you.” Williams said, his voice slightly wavering.“ And what is that?” Jake asked, dipping his fingers into his scattered jet black hair.“ You're to get engaged to Risabel from the Storm family.” “ What! Why? I don't even know her and neither do I know her family!” Jake's eyes wid
Soon the chefs started dishing out the various delicacies. Jake was marvelled but hid it in. His excitement at that moment was second to none. Soon the chefs were done and they all left leaving the duo together under the ambiance of soft music inside the room. “ Dig in, you must be hungry” Grandpa Lawson urged with a smile. “ Thanks” Jake smiled and took his cutleries. He started eating slowly though he was tempted to dig in, but the first impression mattered most to him. Grandpa Lawson saw that Jake was eating slowly, causing him to chuckle. “ You want to leave a first impression? Huh?” The old man was impressed at how reserved and gentle his grandson was. “ Yeah,” Jake smiled awkwardly and began to dig in this time, since his grandpa already knew why he was eating slowly at first. They continued eating in silence for about thirty minutes until Jake was filled up and took a wipe to wipe his lips. “ I guess you're filled up already.” Grandpa Lawson smiled and turned towards th
NEXT DAY “ Hello Young master, where are you? Chairman Lawson is already at the restaurant.” Williams said at the other end of the phone. “ I am on my way, Williams. I had to take care of a mess last night which took my time until this afternoon.” Jake replied as he was about to flag down a cab. “ Don't call a cab, Young master. A red Lamborghini Gallardo is coming to pick you up in three minutes.” Williams said, causing Jake to cock his eyebrows. “ Who sent the car?” “ Chairman Lawson did." Williams started. " He just couldn't overlook the fact that the heir of Acrobatic Empire would come see him in a cab." Williams continued, while Jake chuckled. “ I see," Jake said. " That old man is a handful,” Jake mumbled. He was still speaking with Williams when a red Lamborghini Gallardo, just as Williams had explained, pulled up in front of him. Two hefty looking men dressed in suits came out of the car to welcome Jake. “ Good day, Young master. We were sent by the chairman to bring
Weston’s car kept following behind the cab that Jake was in and when he noticed that he was being followed, he told the cab driver to change direction. At first, he thought of going to the villa but had to change his mind so as to cut the trail off him. Jake decided to stop at a restaurant to eat. He paid off the cab driver who left afterwards. Seeing that Jake stopped in a restaurant, Weston stopped trailing him and left with Zara afterwards. “ What is their problem? Why are they after me?” Jake muttered and continued eating his dinner. After eating, he decided to visit the men’s washroom since he was feeling pressed. As he made his way to the washroom, he began to hear whimpers and muffled cries inside one of the men’s washroom. “ Who is that?” Jake frowned and wanted to help the person out, but he stopped himself from going any further. He turned around and left for another washroom, and after he was done he began to make his way out of the washroom, but stopped when
Jake ran as fast as his legs could get him, chasing after the young man who stole from the perfume store. The chase was getting heated by each passing seconds but in no time, Jake caught up with the thief by throwing a flying kick at him, which made him fall flat to the ground. “ Who the fuck are you? Why can't you let me be?” The thief groaned as he turned around from the floor to glare at Jake who was breathing heavily because of the heavy chase. “ Do you know the amount of perfume you just stole? It's worth more than $7,000, are you aware that the cashier might get fired because of this single perfume?” Jake asked, his glares were murderous which made the thief shift back on his butt. “ Take the perfume and let me go” the thief tried to negotiate with Jake. “ I can see that you're also poor like me,” the thief said, looking at Jake's cheap clothes. “ How about we sell the perfume and share the money equally?” The thief was in for negotiation but Jake wasn't. “ I see that you
Finally it was Friday, Jake was somehow nervous because he would be meeting his grandfather the next day for dinner at the biggest restaurant in the whole of Brooklyn.After leaving his villa for school, he arrived in thirty minutes and settled down in class, but as usual, the bullies wouldn't let him be in peace.“ Here you're, I noticed that you no longer live in the school dorm, have you found a cheap house to live in?” One of the boys said to Jake who totally ignored him but put his earphones inside his ear, and pretended like he never heard them from the beginning.The boy was so annoyed that he dragged the earphone alongside Jake's phone, smashing it to the ground.“ How dare you!” Jake shouted and raised his fists to punch the boy but stopped midway, because he didn't want to cause any problem for Williams and his grandfather.“ What? Why did you punch me? Go on, do it if you can. I will make sure you never step your legs into any university in Brooklyn once you lay your filthy
As Jake left the community, he walked on the lonely road leading to the main road. He could feel someone behind him, so he increased his pace. He turned around a little to take a sneak peek at the person behind him. The stranger was wearing a black trousers, black hoodie, a black face cap and black nose mask.Jake could feel the danger emitting from the stranger following behind him.Fear creeped into Jake as he felt his face white like a vampire.With shaking hands, he brought out his phone to call Williams. “ Hello, Young master, is anything the problem?” Williams picked up the call after the second ring.“ I think someone is following me,” Jake said in a low voice as he increased his pace.“ What? Did you see his face?” Williams asked as he hurriedly left his house in his Lamborghini Aventador to rescue his young master who seemed to be in danger.“ No, he is dressed in black all through, it's hard to see his face, but I am so sure he is after me” Jake muttered, his heart beating
“ Yes, he is the visitor you're expecting..” Before Williams could complete talking, the two ladies fell to their knees. “ I am sorry sir, we didn't know that you're the one” the manager began to cry. “ I am really sorry for downgrading you, please don't fire me from my job, I have nowhere to go to '' Mabel, the cashier begged desperately in tears. “ Stand up” Jake ordered and they both immediately did as they were told. “ You should learn to respect both the rich and poor, you don't know who is who, so respect them even though they seem like beggars” Jake explained while they both nodded. “ Young master, should I fire them?” Williams was having fun and wanted to play with them a little. That was why he asked if they should be fired from their job. “ No, let them be. They've learnt their lesson” Jake waved it off, making the manager and the cashier smile widely. “ Thank you, young master, you can come and select whatever clothes you want,” the manager appreciated. “ No, I won't
