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
Jed swept his gaze around the room for the second time. He saw that some shareholders still had looks of doubt on them.They obviously couldn't accept that the college boy standing in front of them was the new owner of Meta Inc. After the lawsuit between Jetti's Inc and Meta Inc, the former has had to pay a huge fine and even took down the software that was generating a lot of revenue for them.To cut the long story short, as if the huge amount of fine paid wasn't enough, the company's stocks began to drop drastically. Yes, it wasn't enough to ruin Jetti's empire or make them bankrupt but within a couple of weeks, they have lost significant billions of dollars!How could the shareholders not be worried? There were even rumors that companies that used to clamor to partner with Jetti's in the past were all rushing to Meta now as that was the new thriving business.Even shareholders from Jetti's were secretly sowing money into the new project of Meta's. "Boy, how old are you?" One cro
The shareholders all shrugged at each other. This was a golden opportunity, signing a cooperation with Jed so how could they object?"Since there are no objections, I announce a successful cooperation with—""I have objections."The conference room fell silent. All eyes turned to Jed. Alan was puzzled. He already fulfilled his own part of the deal so what could the objections be now?"Father, when you came to me to help your business, I seem to have remembered we talked about inheritance not cooperation," Jed folded his hands on the table.Alan smiled awkwardly seeing the shareholders look at him accusingly. He had truly mentioned that Jed was going to inherit his company but the cooperation with Meta inc...That was all his assumption. He just thought since his son was the owner of Meta, the cooperation was only natural.Merging the two companies together was one of Alan's biggest dreams even when Jordan was still in charge."What are you saying son? Of course, I said you were going
