When Jed got to the Dean's office, the dean, Mr Thomas was proudly showing off a collection of trophies to Alan, who looked more frail than when Jed last saw him.The family Butler, Peter Manchester, was standing beside Alan. He didn't look too pleased at whatever the Dean was saying."Oh! Chairman Jetti, your son is here," Dean Thomas was the first one to notice Jed's arrival.The other two turned around and Alan's eyes shook discreetly in shock. He looked at the young lean and handsome boy that rested against the door with a dull but striking brown hair that stood out and felt he couldn't recognize his own son.The young man standing a few meters away from him, giving off a regal aura with an indifferent look that was completely unfamiliar to Alan made him wonder just how he changed this much.They only met one month or so ago and he was fat, ugly looking then but now?"Good afternoon, Dean sir," Jed greeted the dean and then cast a look at Alan. "I was told you wanted to see me."Pe
"Don't speak harshly to my clients," A young man, primly dressed in formal attire emerged from the hall and bit back at the officer in front of Anna.Seeing the attorney her brother had sent to her appear, Anna's eyes lit up and she rushed to him even before Jack could hold her back."John, how was it? Did you manage to speak with the boss in charge?"The attorney's brows furrowed slightly. He wanted to tell her, 'Madam, this matter is a bit difficult.' But he saw her physical state wasn't too stable so he swallowed his words."Madam, let your mind be at rest. I'll handle the situation. Let me speak to the boss once. Just ignore that lousy officer," He assured her and stepped away.As soon as he was out of reach, he called a number which was answered on the first ring."Hello boss... Yes, yes... I've managed to get the officer in charge but the matter is a bit difficult this time. His case has been taken out of state already and I'm afraid your nephew is done for."Meanwhile, "Mom!"
When Alan Jetti finally returned home, Anna and Jack welcomed him. No one even mentioned anything about the bad incidents that occurred in the family these past few days.Alan was even treated to a sumptuous meal. He felt a bit uncomfortable with the way they acted calm, especially his wife.Judging by Anna's hot temper, he expected her to fly into a rage and rant on how he denied them access to the company or to visit him at the hospital.But no one said a thing. Eventually, after the meal, he spoke, "Jack, meet me in the study room. I have something to say to you."Jack was surprised as he had also been thinking how to bring up the affairs of the company to his father. "Okay."As soon as his father left, he was too excited to leave so he quickly followed behind.Once the dining room was empty, Anna's appealing face displayed a cold smile. She quickly summoned the butler. "Yes madam. You called for me," Peter bowed slightly when he got to her."Tell me. What happened today? I didn'
"Noted," Jed nodded at Eric and swung the empty bottle in his hand into the trash can in a perfect shot. His phone was in one hand and a textbook in the other.He appeared to be chatting with someone. [Young master, something is baffling me. I went through a lot of stress to secure the appointments from the real estate brokers for Meta but you just canceled like that]He has barely had time to finish reading this when Johnny sent another message.[Even if you couldn't attend the appointments, Ian could have gone or are you perhaps not interested in taking over the real estate industry again?]Jed chuckled. He sat down on an armchair and folded his legs. His slender fingers danced on the phone screen.[Mr Skye, what do you think about taking over the entire Jetti's business instead of just the real estate industry?]Question marks appeared on Johnny's face when he received this message. He sat up on his large king size bed which was surprisingly empty.His old face wrinkled with confu
That was how Jed ended up at the largest education research institute in the country. He was led into a huge conference room where some dignified scholars were already waiting.Only one of the men had no grey hair. Others were old men who had served in the education ministry for years.They were veterans that have even been awarded the honor of organizing education seminars all over the world.They were also popular retired professors who came together, formed a union and wrote college textbooks with some disciples.It was no wonder why they were displeased at the fact that a mere college student had pointed out errors from books they wrote and had reviewed by the best editors."Good morning Masters," Jed bowed slightly to greet them after he was led to the front of the table where a large board was waiting for him.The representatives that had brought him from his college stood by the door, each worried the youngster might not be able to withstand the oppressive aura the professors w
"Sir," the Uber driver cried out tearfully. His eyes widened with fear. He was looking at the rear view mirror.Jed groaned slightly and caressed his forehead which had a slight bump. He looked up just in time to see a mini truck headed right for them.It was at full speed rushing towards them with the aim of crashing into them.Jed didn't know where the strength came from but he stood slightly crooked and grabbed the gear.Vroom!The car jerked back to life and at the last minute, Jed swerved the steering wheel and the car got out of the way, missing the truck narrowly.Bang!It still got hit and the occupants of the car jolted forward again."Sir," The Uber driver was in shock. He couldn't even react."Get out of the car," Jed reached out with great difficulty and quickly tried to remove his seat belt. He could see the truck was reversing obviously to hit them again since it failed."Sir... Why?" The driver wanted to say something but Jed pushed him. He managed to open the car door a
Thud!A mobile phone crashed to the ground as loud cracking sounds rang out on the quiet road."Ah!" The truck driver cried out in pain. He could feel his bone shift. The pain was unbearable.Jed had no mercy and twisted the man's hand ruthlessly, dislocating his shoulder.He let go and the truck driver fell to the ground, holding his limp hand while crying in pain.The Uber driver stared at Jed with a look of amazement. He couldn't react because he was so shocked. This boy... He clearly saw the car completely ruined by the truck now. Yet, the boy was standing right in front of him, unscathed. Not even a single stain on his clothes.Not to mention, he has just taken up a man twice his size. This kid was amazing!"Ha! Please let me go. Ha!" Jed felt the truck driver crying like a baby was an eyesore so he walked to him and stepped on the broken hand cruelly. The exact spot where it hurts.The truck driver felt his eyes roll to the back of his head. He was in so much pain he couldn't
At The Jetti's Headquarters"What sort of behavior is this?" One shareholder slammed his palm on the glass table. "How could the chairman delay us like this for someone we do not even know about?""Yes, we have been waiting for more than an hour. Where is the so-called new member we are supposed to meet?"One even pointed at the chairman's personal assistant, Erin. "Hey you! Go and tell the chairman that if he cannot handle the company affairs like a man he is, I will withdraw from this company!"The shareholders have been waiting for long after gathering for an impromptu meeting that was organized to introduce a new member into the company.Originally, they were dissatisfied. The chairman was supposed to look for a solution for their current crisis yet he was there adding a new member to the company.Why did he even have to gather all the shareholders for that?Now, the chairman and the new member are nowhere to be seen and it's been more than an hour now! How could they tolera
