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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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,
