Chapter 198Jake walked into the abandoned warehouse with his hands in his pocket and a stick of cigarettes tucked in between his lips. The burning reddish light provided illumination in the dark room, the flicker of his smoke intertwined with the air in the warehouse. Announcing to those present that he was around and that they should help him with the secret door.Jakes walked towards the wall which was a door to his boss's office and other compartments beyond and after the wall. The wall split into two, and he walked in elegantly, this time with his hands out of his pocket and his hands wrapped around his chest.He walked straight to Mr. Xinao's office and knocked on the door of Mr. Xinao's office. "Come in Jaguar," his voice rang out from outside. Jake pushed the door open and walked in slowly with his gaze on the floor, "You sent for me boss." "Have your seat, Jakes, we need to talk," Mr. Xinao said as he took off his glasses, Jakes sat down with his hands folded on his chest,
Chapter 199"I know I am not supposed to be saying this but I am fucking scared, I don't think I will be able to do this," Jay replied looking away from her. Audrey exhaled and stood up from the couch, she walked to the other couch where he was facing. "Do you want to know what I think about this?"He returned his gaze to her face nodding his head, "I know you haven't done this before, you aren't good at pretending and you find it hard to flow along with people you hardly know or have met in the past right?"Jay nodded his head as she sat up, "You are right my love, I haven't done something like this, the probability that I am going to fail is very high, I don't want to let you guys down, neither do I want to die."She quickly shut him up by placing her index finger in the middle of his lips, "Don't say that, I am certain you are going to find a way around this. Come on, you don't have to think so low about yourself, you can do this, I believe in you, Jay.""That's the problem, you g
Chapter 200It was with the help of their bodyguards they were able to get back home, Aaron wasn't good at drinking, but he decided to give it a try when his father offered it to him. Mr. Richard on the other hand was a strong drinker, he seldom gets drunk.But due to what happened earlier with Aaron claiming to be on his side and his confession of hatred for Adrian, it made him glad and it got into his head that he drank more than his capacity.After getting both of them to their respective rooms, Aaron reached for his phone in a drunken state and dialed Elder Jackson's number. Elder Jackson who had just finished studying and was returning from his study, paused when he saw Aaron's call, he didn't delay in answering it."I love you sir, thank you for everything you have done," he hung up and slept off. Elder Jackson was shocked, but from the way Ethan was speaking, he could tell it was either he was drunk or he was just sleeping and happened to call his number.He sat down on his bed
Chapter 201Adrian got out of his bed and exhaled after having a terrible dream. His face was buried in his palm, tears almost dripping from the corners of his eyes. He raised his head, revealing his disgruntled face, laced with worry and an atom of fear.His lips were folded into a thin line, and his eyes were a bit squinted, his breath was slow and steady but his feet were dangling on the floor. He took a glance at his wrist, and shook his head, "What do I have to do, what do I have to fucking do? Time is running out and I still don't have an idea about what I am to do, it's fucking crazy."He stood up and screamed, the room vibrating to the echoes of his scream, his breath was heavy and his eyes almost popped out of its socket. The feeling that he wasn't good enough and not being able to figure things out, despite what people were saying, was eating deep into him. The only way he could let it all out was by screaming his lungs out, a lot of things seemed to be bugging his mind, bu
Chapter 202Ethan sat up and rolled over to the left to grab his phone, he stared at his phone and quickly got out of his bed when he saw the time. "How come, I slept this long? Fuck!" He quickly walked into his bathroom and took off his pajamas.When he was done bathing, he walked out of his bathroom with his towel tied around his waist, he moved straight to where his mirror was and picked up his comb, which he used in combing his hair. When he was done, he moved to his wardrobe to get the clothes he would be wearing.(A few minutes later)He smiled at his reflection in the mirror, "Damn, I am fucking hot and handsome," he picked up a bottle of perfume, which he sprayed over his body before walking out of his room with a bag in his hands. His bodyguard who was standing outside his room, quickly took the bag away from his hands and they both walked down the hallway.He felt the urge to check up on his twin brother, Liam, but he let go of the thought and walked out of his hallway. The
Chapter 203They all kept quiet, staring at each other, before Mr. Richard spoke up, "I have a mad plan for Adrian in particular, but this plan of his is going to span across his dad, that's you guys Dad and Elder Jackson."They all seem excited about the plan, "What's the plan about, spill it to us uncle, somehow I feel this is going to be great," Ethan said."Same thing here, I know this is going to be great, let's have it uncle, we are listening," Liam said. Aaron was skeptical about this, but at the same time he was scared about what was going to happen to Adrian. "Aaron, you don't seem excited like your cousins, or don't you think I can come up with a great plan?"Aaron shook his head, "No Dad, you should know me by now, I don't get excited by headlines, I only get excited by what's in the news.""Yeah, that's true," his father replied after gulping water down from his bottled water. He sat up and cleared his throat, ready to spill what was on his mind. They all had their gaze
Chapter 204Mr. Adrian felt so uneasy in the office, he couldn't tell what it was, but he felt something wasn't right. He stood up from his chair and walked to the walls in his office which were made of glass. He stared at the vast city and he shook his head when he saw this building of Rosa and Mason's office."I am not done with you guys at all, by the time I am done, you are going to crawl towards me begging," he muttered and walked back to his chair, he took off his coat and immediately a call came into his phone. It was a call from Mr. Wilson, immediately he answered, "Good day sir.""Good day Adrian, please I would love to know if you are in any way less busy, my daughter wants you guys to go out. From the looks of things I can tell that my daughter is deeply into you, and you have to bring in your A-game, you know what I am talking about right?""My A game? Come on Mr.Wilson, it's just a date, it's not like I am going there to pitch a business idea, or even for a job interview
Chapter 205"Come in Adrian, come in and have your seat," Elder Jackson said gazing at him, Adrian nodded his head and sat down gazing at Elder Jackson.Elder Jackson cleared his throat, "Do you know why I called you here?" Adrian nodded his head, "Maybe, you said you wanted to see me and learn certain things from me," he replied, raising his shoulders.Elder Jackson laughed, "I see, well you know I have been studying you lately, I must confess you are one of the persons that seems to have intrigued me. From the way you do things and the way you carry yourself, I am in awe.I don't know how you manage to do this, but it's something I would love to learn from you. You know I have always spoken to you guys about doing certain things like collaboration and the rest. I also told you guys that if you see a result you want, you should go ahead to learn and also collaborate with such a person and institute."Adrian nodded his head, "Yes Elder Jackson, you always told us about this. I don't
