Other CEOs mumbled amongst themselves, seeing that the chairman's expression was not pleasant."Forget about it," Chairman Luther waved his hands. "Since the Ceo of Meta inc doesn't want to join our association, we'll just have to make an enemy out of him."The CEOs were startled at this. Actually, they are just a group of CEOs leading great companies and are affiliated with the Luther Group of companies.Originally, Jetti's were the top but after the crisis they faced, they have recently declined. Naturally, Luther is supposed to take over.But with Meta Inc. doing so well after trampling on the Jetti's, that wasn't so possible and Luther's could only maintain the second position for now.At first, Chairman Luther thought if he were to collaborate with Meta, it would be a beneficial cooperation to them but since Meta inc has been so rude and not able to show some respect, he wouldn't hesitate to treat them like the rival they are!"Who does that old man of Meta think he is? He only j
[Task Level: Difficult][Task: User has to gather enough evidence to prove that Anna Jetti and Jack Jetti has something to do with the mishap that has befallen Alan Jetti][Task Achievement: Justice will be served and user will be able to use the unpleasant situation to show the public and the shareholders that he is the rightful person to take over the company][Task Reward: 15RP and 3 Asst. point. User's ultimate task bar would also receive an increase][Total Time: 4 days][Accept/Reject]Jed stroked his chin. Since Vendetta's new change, this is his first difficult task and the reward is quite tempting but the time is too short.With these few clips of footage, he couldn't prove Anna has any connections with the perpetrator as the video of her heading to the garden was blurry and she could easily make up some story.Yes, he could prove Alan was deliberately poisoned but there is absolutely no connection between the perpetrator and the people he supports.This means he would have t
"Can't you just keep it low and let the serious one here study?" He groaned, covering his face with the opened textbook in his hand."Eric, you are well aware news spread out on the school discussion forum yesterday that the tests that were supposed to carry on for five days will only be conducted within three days. Why are you not worried?"Eric smirked with a weird 'I am cool' smile, "Geniuses like us don't worry about short time spans.""Pfft!" Jed spat out the water in his mouth struggling to hold in his laughter.Ben didn't find this funny. He only gave Eric a cold look."Your game tournament starts Friday and ends Sunday right? That means we don't even get any time to rest as we have to leave Philadelphia the next day after the test is over. Shouldn't you act more serious?""Quit being bossy," Eric frowned. He knew he couldn't afford to slack having to deal with tests then the game tournament right after but the news—"Just look at this and you'll understand it's worth it," He h
A timid boy with bright blond hair was standing by the table with a large book. He looked nervous and Jed couldn't help but scrutinize his appearance.Ben repeated his question, "Who are you?"Before the boy could squeak out, Eric spoke, "Oh, I know you! Aren't you the new boy?"He still couldn't understand how someone would only just join school when the school session was halfway over. They were already even writing the semester tests.The boy looked relieved that someone recognized and squeaked out a low voice."Yes, my name is Matthew. I'm new here. Can I sit with you?"There was an empty seat left at the table so Ben motioned for him to sit there. Although he didn't say anything, he still felt wary of the new boy. Call it sixth sense."I'm sorry for intruding on your lunch but I'm facing some difficulties with these questions. Could you please help me?"As he opened the book, he glanced at Jed like he has been doing since he got to the table. Jed felt this strong stare and looke
The tied up man shivered, noticing the cold gaze the masked man was giving him while waiting for an example."Will you talk or I have to crack your head open and get the answers from you?" A bodyguard threatened menacingly.The man swallowed and lowered his gaze. After some minutes, he looked up and stubbornly insisted, "I don't know what you are talking about. I'm just a poor mechanic. How can I possess millions of dollars in my account to purchase those properties?"Jed was irked. Was this man stupid or just wanted to sacrifice himself? Is this amount enough for his silence?Jed didn't need to deal with him because one of his bodyguards stepped out and looked at the man who shrunk fearfully."Have you forgotten where we found you? You were at the casino surrounded by plenty of beauties with disgusting men trying to fawn up to you. It seems we have to reset your memory."The next moment, cries of 'ah' filled the room. The man cried out in pain as the hot metal sunk into his flesh. He
"Good, thank you," It was Jack that said this. Anna was still wiping her crocodile tears."Madam, don't be disheartened. We'll find the one that poisoned your husband soon. Good night. I apologize for ruining your sleep.""Thank you D.P.O," Anna nodded and the call ended but she didn't dare sleep again.How could Joe have been caught? Who sent the videos? Her heart was in turmoil. So someone else knows she plotted against Alan.Shit! She should have finished that old man and killed that stupid, incompetent Joe!"Mother," Jack walked in. "Do you know what this means?""We are not safe. Someone has gotten to Joe."Although Jack spoke confidently with the D.P.O just now, he was actually scared. If it weren't for the good familial relationship between them and the D.P.O, how could the man have believed there was no connection in the videos sent to them?Anna looked at him. "Don't worry about that. I will inform your uncle tomorrow. He will put an end to all these. You just have to focus o
At exactly 9: 20pm the next day, the boys walked out of Dubai International Airport having gone through all the security and personnel check-up.Some officials from the tournament were waiting at the airport to welcome the gamers. Although the boys had traveled for almost twenty hours as they had to make a stop at London since there was no direct flight between Philadelphia and Dubai, there was no sign of fatigue on their faces.This could be the privilege gotten from traveling first class."As-salam alaykum," Some of the officials waiting to receive Eric greeted them with folded hands. The boys except Jed didn't know what to do or say so they just folded their hands in return and nodded awkwardly.Only Jed answered, "Wa ʿalaykum s-salam."Eric and Ben looked at him startled, not understanding a single word he said. But the officials were pleased to see that a foreigner was familiar with their greeting.Some handled the luggages and quickly left to attend to welcome other gamers tha
The news didn't disappoint him. His thin lips twisted in a smile. He was willing to let them go if they gave up the company but Anna and Jack deliberately forced him to a tight corner every time so that he couldn't help but retaliate. Ping! He received a message from Irwin. It had actually been sent some hours ago but because his phone was on flight mode in order not to be disturbed, he didn't receive it until now. [How is it boss?] [Good. You did a good job] It was around 2pm in Philadelphia and Irwin wasn't too occupied with work so he quickly replied. [Boss, the Jetti's would go bankrupt at this point. We barely managed to keep them from sinking in deep waters and now that I've withdrawn the resources that managed to make them afloat...] Jed's eyes narrowed. [Are you worrying about them?] Even though Jed was miles away, Irwin felt a feeling of chill when he read the message. His back stiffened and he hurriedly explained. If the young master misunderstood his opinion, he mig
