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
Chapter 206Elder Jackson exhaled, "Now I am going to bring back the question I asked you a few minutes ago, how do you do the things you do?"Adrian exhaled also, with his gaze on the floor, he raised his head and gazed into the eyes of Elder Jackson, "I guess I am wiser now, thanks once more Elder Jackson, you are the real deal, a true elder," he paused and continued."Well, this is what I do, I make sure to invest my time in the things that are my priorities. When I do this, I end up giving my best, I put everything into it, I mean every damn thing.You know, when responsibility is being awarded to me, I try to do my best to carry out the responsibility and do it very well with everything in me," Adrian paused, he felt what he was about to say made sense and also tallied a little with the past occupant of his body."It's been my desire to do a lot of things, but when certain things came up, I had to put away certain things. Well, with time, it dawned on me that only a few things we
Chapter 207Adrian couldn't stop thinking about where Elder Jackson was taking him, but he wasn't scared, he knew Elder Jackson meant well for him, unlike his step-twin brothers and his uncle. "You are still interested in eating right?""Yes sir I am," Adrian replied, with his gaze on Elder Jackson who had his gaze on an apple iPad in his hands. He was looking at the stock market charts of a particular company he was interested in buying.This got him intrigued, "Elder Jackson, you are still interested in these? Elder Jackson tilted his head towards Adrian, "Yeah of course, this is what I have been doing for more than five decades. Buying stocks has been of help to me and there's no way I am going to stop this.I drive joy in viewing the charts, analyzing them, and the rest, it's fun to me. At times when I am bored, I do this, it's just my way of creating joy."Adrian nodded his head intrigued at what Elder Jackson said, he had marveled since he got into this body, he had never seen
Chapter 208"You aren't happy with the choice I made or what?" Adrian couldn't resist the urge to ask. Elder Jackson nodded his head, and sat up, his gaze still on him, "You know, earlier in the car when I asked you to give me reasons why you wanted me to teach you about the stock market, do you think your reasons were valid?"Adrian paused for a while, trying to understand the question, he pondered on it from different angles, before answering. "I would say they were valid to me, but to you, they weren't valid.""That's great, if you think they were valid, why didn't you do all you could do to push it down my throat, you just allowed it to slide, don't you think you are in a way firing a shot at yourself?" Elder Jackson asked, wearing a questioning look.Adrian was speechless, dude was confused, "I see, you don't understand what I just said right? Well, I am going to explain, if I remember, I asked you if you were interested in this, and you said yes right?" Adrian nodded his head, a
Chapter 209 Adrian tilted his head again towards Elder Jackson, "I am not in control here, he is, you should ask him not me," he replied. The driver was shocked, "Are you joking, he's deeply asleep, you know we can't disturb him. It's up to you now, all we need is for you now is a command." Adrian exhaled for a while and tilted his gaze towards Elder Jackson again, he knew they were here for him and not for anyone. Just before he could speak, the right door of the car was opened. Without mincing words, a huge, tall masked man with a gun in his hands appeared and jacked him out of the car. Before he could say a word, a blindfold was placed over his head, he felt a huge hit on his head and he passed out. ******** (Two hours later) Mr. Richard was seated in a room with dim blue light, Ethan, Liam, and Aaron were seated with their gaze on him. From the look of their faces, you could tell that they were fucking confused as to why they were here. "Father, you called us here and
Chapter 210 Aaron dropped the call, "I have to go now, Elder Jackson just asked that I come back home immediately, please if you have any helpful information that's going to be of help, please don't delay in reaching out to us." Jaguar nodded his head, "I won't, you can trust me on that." "Thank you Jakes or should I say Jaguar?" He asked and they both laughed, "Anyone will do," Jakes replied as they shook hands. Aaron walked to the door with Jaguar tailing him behind the door, they both got to the door and Aaron walked out of his apartment. Aaron walked straight to his car and drove back home to meet with Elder Jackson. Jakes shut the door after watching Aaron drive out, he walked back to the dining where he was seated, he couldn't study anymore. The news of Adrian came as a shock to him, he couldn't concentrate again, this was one of the reasons why he hates being attached to people. He picked up his phone and dialed Max's line, it rang for a few minutes before he picked
