The secretary was taken aback at Irwin's blunt words. She took a quick look at their Ceo. In Meta's current position in the industry, isn't it a blessing that representatives from Jetti's Inc came to visit.Besides, those people out there weren't just representatives. He is the eldest son of the Jetti's and the future owner of the family's business.The secretary wanted to leave a good impression on him so perhaps if there was a chance in future to transfer to their company, it won't be difficult for her.However, hearing Irwin's words, she felt saying that to the representatives from Jetti would make her future bleak."Is there anything else?" Irwin suddenly looked around and saw that the secretary was still standing there."No sir," She shook her head vigorously and scrambled out like someone that was just caught doing a cruel thing.Irwin was puzzled at her reaction but he focused his attention on the meeting. He wanted to hear the employees' answers. When the secretary got to the
Jack Jetti looked up when the elevator made a ding sound to indicate its opening like he has been doing for almost five hours now.Even though he told the secretary they could wait for as long as the meeting lasted, he was growing impatient.In the past when he had to visit other companies to discuss an agreement, their longest meeting was one to two hours so how could he bear waiting like this in the reception for five hours?Jack didn't realize his bad mood was slowly reflecting on his face. Some nosy employees that took note of this, secretly took a picture of him and Will with the bodyguards by their sides and uploaded it on Thread.Coupled with the hashtag [See What The Heir of The Jetti's has been reduced to], the post quickly went viral.Because there wasn't any public news yet about the impending lawsuit between the Jetti's and Meta's due to Alan's influence, netizens were intrigued by the post and speculated the possible scenarios."Mr. Jetti, have you been waiting for a long
[See What The Heir of The Jetti's has been reduced to]This headline was what caught his eye. He quickly scrolled down and read the little description tagged to the picture uploaded.A smile tugged at his lips. "This is just the beginning."Ben collected his phone and continued navigating through the comments. "The comments are really eye opening. These netizens online are despicable."No one replied to him. Jed glanced at Eric. His mood is only always this terrible when dealing with a matter involving Scarlett.To think that he and Ben had thought he was just having a harmless crush on Scarlett back then at the hospital. This is clearly more than a harmless crush!"Seeing this only convinces me, if they somehow manage to get together, they will realize how unsuitable they are," He clicked his tongue."Jed, the news of the lawsuit between Meta Inc and Jetti's hasn't been made public yet. The netizens are actively looking for scoops. Wouldn't this be the best way to ride on the wave an
"No, I'm fine... I'm fine," Jed sat back and massaged his head which surprisingly wasn't aching. The chauffeur witnessed all that happened and pressed some buttons to wind down the glasses of the car.'Ping!' Vendetta chimed as soon as Jed had recovered himself.'User has used eight points during the activation of your Retrocognition skill.'Jed was puzzled. Vendetta never told him that to use the skill he needed to sacrifice some of his points.'User has a total reward point of eight left. Would you like to look at the available skills that can be purchased?''Wait, Vendetta, you never told me I need to use some points to be able to make use of my Retrocognition skill. Didn't I already purchase it?' Jed was speechless. He seriously suspected this was a rip off!Vendetta sensed his thoughts and was amused before apologizing,'I'm sorry. System didn't explain earlier. The thing is, take for instance, you are playing a mobile game and you have some perks to your possession that you could
"Would you like to be part of my project team?" Bryan didn't expect this question because his face brightened.He wanted to ask Jed earlier but he didn't want to come off as rude. He doesn't want to be on another team with a bunch of rude boys that would make his life miserable."Really?" Bryan couldn't believe his ears. Jed nodded excitedly and before he knew it he was enveloped in a warm embrace.It seems like since he has transmigrated into this life, the warmth that was missing from his former life has become abundant. "Woah woah chubby, easy there or I'd suspect you have a thing for our Jed," Eric teased and Bryan immediately pulled back blushing fiercely.Ben flicked Eric's palm again. He always loves to talk nonsense. "Don't tease the poor boy.""See you later brother," Bryan waved and hurried away. Eric chuckled,"Should we tell him Jed is too young to be called brother?""Shut up. We are running late."Mid-noon when they got some break from classes, Jed brought out his phone
"Father, I was told you wanted to see me," Finn barged into the chairman's office located in the Jetti's headquarters. He had been busy these past few days trying to figure out the mole that was letting out all his information to the securities but the men he hired were so useless that they couldn't find any clue.Since they can't find the snitch, he couldn't operate because whatever business transaction he tries to do will obviously be countered by the bastard operating behind the scene. And since he has been unable to operate the activities of his cartels and the money he got from the brothels he was managing were barely enough, he was inciting more loss than he has ever had.So he was already so tense and when he received the notice that his father wanted him to head over to the Jetti's headquarters, he was surprised.He just had to come and see what was going on. But he wasn't at all surprised to see Jack already in the office.After all, news of the Jetti's Inc coming to an end
"Guys... Guys... Stop with these wild speculations okay? I haven't even seen her all day," Jed raised his hands over his head to show he surrendered."Can't I just be texting someone and be genuinely happy about it?""Well, history has it that when a man smiles over the phone while texting, he is chatting with a loved one obviously a female and vice versa," Eric hummed, rubbing his nose.Jed chuckled. "Well then, the legend's saying is wrong."They made their way to leave when their path was suddenly obstructed. Ben almost groaned when he saw Arthur, Jayden, Ken and Matt surprisingly no Cullen this time."Why is it that whenever someone bumps into us it is usually you scumbags?" Eric was the hot-headed one amongst them so he exploded."Hey! Bastard, who are you referring to as scumbags?" Ken yelled."It seems like your injury has healed well, Matt," Jed's voice was so low one would have missed what he was saying.Matt subconsciously shivered in fear remembering what had happened at the
"Jed, why did you accept their invite? You should know those scallywags have a plan for you. Whenever they are around, nothing good ever happens," Ben asked as soon as they got home.He's been refraining himself from asking while they were in the vehicle. One because of the chauffeur and secondly because Jed seemed to be in a serious conversation with whom he was texting.Eric didn't say a word, just stormed inside with his fists clenched. Jed shook his head. Whenever he sees Jayden, his mood just changes drastically."I know," Jed's words were accompanied by a chuckle. Ben didn't see what was funny.He knows they have some kind of sick plan for him yet he accepted their invite. Isn't that the same as walking right into the enemy's trap?"What is better than making them fall into the ditch they dug for me themselves?"Ben was puzzled for a second before he suddenly grasped the meaning of Jed's response."You... Cunning brat! I seriously thought you were in big trouble," Ben patted him
