The crowd began to chant for Joe Cole's arrest,“Take him away!!!”The uproar was becoming a tense one for everybody and even more worriedly for Mercury and John. If they still had some money, they could have paid for the drinks but the price was too enormous to even think. $30 million? Where were they going to get it from? “Joe, this is really bad, man. Why would you fall for Jake's childishness? You said it yourself. Fuck!” John said to him, worried as hell about the situation they were in. Social media posts were already flaunting the internet about the situation and it really looked bad on them. But Joe Cole remained silent and unbothered.“Hold on guys, we have an idea,” Jake stilled the crowd with his words after some whispering and conniving with his fiancée, Emily.Emily got up to deliver to the angry yet satisfied crowd what their new mischievously wicked idea was.“Joe Cole has been a torn on our flesh all this while, he thinks he can match us or challenge us, he thinks he
The hall plunged into a chaotic scene of rumbling and grumbling, everyone demanding an answer to Jake's question on who was going to pay for the drinks.The waitress returned to the microphone and tossed her gaze towards Joe Cole in a bid to get confirmation from him. He nodded his head gently, giving her a go-ahead signal, and she announced to them again.“Well, Mr. Cole—” she tried to speak but was interrupted by Jake's question.“Why do you keep calling him Mr. Cole? Call him Joe Cole at best.” Jake dropped on her.The people laughed and when they were done, the lady continued, “Mr. Cole insists he is going to pay for them.”“Agh!!” The crowd protested, and another surge of murmuring and rumbling shot out again.“What does he mean by that?” “Dude couldn't even pay for one bottle and he dares to ‘insist’ on paying for fifteen?” “Is this a cheap reverse psychology to trap us in debt or what?”“Fuck you, Joe Cole. Pay before we drink.”The noise continued as everyone was pissed by J
Everyone took a deep sigh and became calm, the lady who had told them about how gold cards work was right and her words gave them the additional relief they needed. It wasn't possible under any means for Joe Cole to own a valid gold card and of course, there are many fake ones out there. Jake's father was the richest man in the world, making Jake the richest kid in the world. The Arab Princes were the richest royalties in the world because their nations were oil-rich nations. Yet, none of them had a gold card, so how could Joe Cole possibly have a valid gold card? He would have to inherit a fortune of $20 billion at least but they all knew his background, that wasn't possible by any means. “Aah…thank you, baby, for saving me from this embodiment of shame and embarrassment.” Emily kissed Jake in appreciation of his rescue job.“So, this fool somehow obtained a fake gold card and confidently used it to scam us all. See why I said he is a fraud who should be treated as such?” Jake echo
The manager approached Joe Cole and greeted him.“Good evening, sir. I am Frank Kerry and I am the manager of this prestigious establishment.”“Prestigious establishment! Let him know, good sir!” Jake said out and everyone burst into laughter, laughing at his mocking comment on Joe Cole.The manager allowed the laughter and interruption from Jake to die down and then continued with Joe Cole.“I sincerely want to apologize to you, sir, for all the inconveniences and embarrassment brought to you tonight. On behalf of this prestigious establishment, I deeply apologize to you.”The students were stunned by the manager's apology, he wasn't directing it to the right person.“Mr. Manager or Frank Kerry, right?” Robert called him out, “You are apologizing to the wrong person. The party host whom you should be apologizing to is over here.” He said, pointing to Jake as the one the manager should be apologizing to.The students began their murmuring and grumbling again, wondering what was wrong
Joe Cole left the campus early that morning to spend the weekend at his new mansion and meet with Rachael and the rest of his business team. On his way to the mansion, he called up Diji, his futuristic artificial intelligence home assistant who was already fitted into all of his devices from his house to his cars to his laptop, phone, watches, and accessories.“Hey, Diji, I am on my way home.”Diji responds immediately, “Alright, boss. What would you like me to do?” “Call Rachael and ask her to meet me up. Tell her to come with the team.” He instructed his robotic assistant.“Okay, boss,” Diji answered back and went on to carry out the assignment.Joe Cole took in a deep breath and exhaled gently, his joy oozing all over him. He was really rich and had finally confirmed it by spending some of the money. Within a week, he had spent over $50 million, including the record-breaking $30 million he spent at the Billionaires Clubhouse in one sitting.Joe Cole felt on top of the world, his
Joe Cole hoped in one of his one-only edition cars and with Diji's help, he activated the simulation drive features. With a VR/AR device on his face that changed his reality into a digital one, he activated all systems and was ready for his cruise through the city.The first sight he saw was the last sight he saw before he turned on the device, it didn't seem to him like anything changed, it was one seamless transition from actual reality to digital reality, everything was exactly the same.“Wow, this tech is futuristic, Diji. How have we never heard of it?” His enthusiasm for the technology aroused as he questioned Diji.“It wouldn't be announced yet until ten years time and won't be commercially available to all until another ten years. It is the future of the internet, of gaming, and of living.” Diji answered him.The advanced technologies infused into his Olympus mansion was beyond anything the world had ever seen, it was too advanced for human comprehension as of the time.“So wh
Not really, sir. But you don't want to cheat in a relationship you're yet to begin. I'd suggest you use other available data around you to make your judgement rather than psychoanalysing your lady of interest. It seems disrespectful and also would make her powerless, so, I'd advise you to take your technological advantages away from your relationship.”Joe Cole thought about Diji's words and the digital assistant was right, using his secret futuristic technology on his lady of interest would be cheating and when she finds out, it would compromise things for him. But then, he thought to himself, ‘If I had this technology then, I would have known who Emily was before she did all of that nonsense to me.’“You did know who Emily was, boss. You just didn't accept it because of your situation then. You were more in love and feeling proud than you were logical, and besides, there are consequences of altering the future. For example, if you used an advanced knowledge of who Emily was to act
Joe Cole deactivated the simulation mode and there he was, still at his underground garage in his Olympus Estate. It was quite a ride for him, cruising round the city and then to his school to invincibly check out what the students were up to. He also had a great time with his A.I assistant, Diji, especially in their conversation about Mercury. Diji gave him the best wingman support for him to prepare himself as he works towards finding a chance with the lady who always had his back and had saved him multiple times.“Whoo, Diji. That was quite a ride. Thanks.” He enthusiastically said to his A.I assistant as he stepped out of the car and it automatically shut its doors quietly.“Anytime, boss.” Diji replied.“Where is Rachael and the team now?” He asked, making his way to the elevator.“They are at the business lounge section of the mansion waiting for you. I've informed them about your engagement and they'll wait while you freshen up to join them.”“Alright, great. Let me get on wit
Jon Cole kept his end of the bargain, as did Rachel, and he reunited the two sisters while also falling in love with Emily through their interactions.Jon Cole kept his end of the bargain, as did Rachel, and he reunited the two sisters while also falling in love with Emily through their interactions.They failed to keep their promises to European countries, which enraged the kings.He also signed over the majority of Joe Cole's wealth and empire to Emily and Rachael, and he sold off his businesses to the Sullivans and their group for next to nothing.He betrayed President Carter by endorsing and funding his opponent's political campaign. The candidate was someone the Sullivans supported and wanted to put in office so they could embezzle funds and benefit themselves.Jon Cole and Emily began having affairs, and when Mercury discovered this, she confronted him about it, but he did not care about the allegations and told her to manage him or leave, so she took some time off to think and
The news of her kidnapping threw the president and Joe Cole off guard, and they rushed over the special forces to retrieve her. However, the forces asked the president to remain in the White House so that his appearance at the scene would do more harm than good to Mercury, but Joe Cole was allowed to be present.After a few minutes, the mafia sent a location, and they were all stationed at strategic points, waiting for Joe Cole to arrive. When they saw the entire force approaching, they did not panic because all they needed was a clear shot from their snipers.As soon as the squad arrived, they cleared the area and began using their technology to locate Mercury. When they found her, Joe Cole ran to hug her, but he was shot as he did so." Nooooo!!!!" Mercury screamed as she saw Joe Cole get shot three times in the chest and fall off the bridge into the ocean.Everything happened so quickly, and the mafia dispersed and reported to the Sullivans that their problems had been resolved, bu
He recovered at Joe Cole's beach house and attempted to continue enjoying his engagement getaway with Mercury.They went on a getaway following their graduation and engagement party, which was quite large. They set a Guinness World Record for the first engagement party to include a hot air balloon ride with over 30 leaders from around the world.Joe Cole was also exhausted by the graduation because he never imagined he would get this far and wished his parents were still alive to see and celebrate with him, just as John's, Mercury's, and Betty's parents were. But his worries were alleviated when he was called on stage to receive his award and the president stood in for his father; it was the greatest honor he could receive.Following the graduation and engagement party, he and Mercury decided to take an engagement vacation to spend time together before returning to the United States to plan their wedding.However, the news of Emily's death forced them to return to the United States wh
"Hello boss, I have great news," the private detective hired by Mr. Sullivan called to inform him of the new information he had obtained from Rachel."Okay, go on!" Mr Sullivan waited impatiently to hear what the private detective had to say."Rachel is Emily Martinez' older sister!" The private detective said with firmness, and Williams Sullivan was overjoyed by the news and asked if she knew what her true identity was, but he said no and that he was overrated because the loophole they had been looking for had finally arrived, and they were ready to exploit it to finally destroy Joe Cole.He asked the private detective to send all of the information in a document and promised him a bonus for bringing such heinous news to him, and it came at the right time, as Emily had been declared dead, with Joe Cole as the suspect."If we can not kill him from the outside, we will kill him from the inside," Mr Sullivan told his wife, excitedly waiting for the detective to send Rachel's files.Afte
Mercury's beauty was so captivating that everyone turned to look at her as she walked into the hall dressed like a queen. Joe Cole quickly readjusted his suit, knowing the time had come for the proposal. Joe Cole quickly came up to her and kissed her. In front of everyone, he knelt on one knee, and the team simply changed all of the hall's walls to pictures of both of them from their various trips, and on stage, a video collage of both of them began playing.Mercury was already crying because this was the most romantic engagement she had ever imagined, and he spoke briefly as the spotlight was focused on him."From the first time I saw you, I knew you were going to be my wife, and I have loved you ever since. Thank you for loving me when I had nothing, and now that I am very rich, I love you mercury, and if you say yes to being my forever, I will be the happiest billionaire." Joe Cole confessed to Mercury, who was still lost in the scenery because it was something she had not expect
The ball party was the most anticipated event in school and every male and Female looked forward to it. The most exciting part was who the Beauty Goddess always chose to accompany her to the party, and everyone suspected Emily would pick Joe Cole. Joe Cole arrived at school with Mercury, and they looked so stunning and in love that everyone envied their relationship. Some called Mercury lucky for dating the richest guy in school, while others said it was a calculated risk she took to be with him when he had nothing and then he became wealthy.When they arrived at the main hall, they both sat beside each other, unconcerned about what others might say or think of them. However, when Emily walked into the hall, she was enraged by how close her supposed love was sitting next to Mercury, so she decided to deal with them using the only authority she had.She walked on stage and greeted everyone in attendance. She also spoke briefly about the Ball party, which was the last party they would
From the entrance they went through a security check and they were both amazed by how luxurious and techy Joe Cole's house was and looked , it. When they arrived at the main gate, they noticed a gold inscription bearing Joe Cole's name, "JC," written boldly on the gate as it opened, giving the impression that they were no longer in the US but rather in paradise. The driveway leading up to the main entrance was lined with exquisite flowers that had been carefully crafted to resemble various animals. Even though they were entitled and wealthy growing up, they had never lived in such an opulent home and never imagined a home this magnificent.They were so enthralled that they failed to notice that they had circled the same intersection twice. When the security asked them to stop at the main entrance and quit meandering around the estate like lost men, they felt embarrassed.They both chuckled to themselves before coming to a halt at the main door. They were welcomed by the house manager
President Carter went on to say that he had received information that the source of Joe Cole's wealth had been discovered and was now being published in various media outlets."The first print out arrived in my office yesterday, which is why I called for this meeting so that we can find a way to save the nation," the president said, explaining that the revelation of this secret could lead to an investigation into him, Joe Cole, and those who have been plotting against him, and he was confident that those who have been scheming against him would take advantage of the opportunity to lay false or fabricated charges against them in order to destroy their reputation.He also informed them that the consequences of this could cost him and Joe Cole everything they had worked for.The room fell silent as they all considered how this information could destroy not only President Carter and Joe Cole, but also them and their investments.They also began thinking of ways to solve the problem, which
The conditions stated by Joe Cole were too heavy for the Denmark king and his cabinet to process. After a few minutes of silence, the king told Joe Cole that these conditions were too intense and asked if they could negotiate the conditions, but Joe Cole was very adamant about his conditions. "Mr. Joe, we really need this money to help stabilize our economy, but the conditions you gave are very intense, and if we take this deal, it means that our prince could not have any inheritance or anything to his name," the Denmark king stated their tight corner to Joe Cole, but Joe Cole did not budge.Joe Cole's conditions were the most considerate among those imposed by other leaders, but they still needed time to consider them."We still need a few days to talk amongst ourselves and decide on the next steps." The king of Denmark informed Joe Cole. "That is fine with me, but I will be leaving Denmark tomorrow, so when a decision is made, please send it through Robert to me." In response, Joe
