Jeremy had lost his mind at the moment. He didn't want to be humiliated by Jonah the loser in front of everyone. So he bit his lips and clenched his fist in aggravationAs he turned and marched towards the entrance of the building, he stopped and bellowed "Look here all of you, I'm not a sore loser, I don't need Jonah's sympathy",Then he continued and entered the auto shop. However, due to the size of the shop, not everyone could enter the building at once. Still, the many that entered took out their phones and started recording the scene, they planned to post these videos online in case Jeremy chickened out at the last minuteAs they entered the shop, Jonah ventured away towards the luxurious car collection area of the shop leaving Jeremy to sort out the payment details. He did not go far when he was suddenly blocked by several men in black"Excuse me sir, but I believe you may be lost. Please return the same way and you'll find the exit",The outfit Jonah was wearing today was rath
Evette crossed her arms in front of her chest and said in a pompous tone "Are you really asking me that question?", then sighed "Look at yourself, Jonah. Do you not see how poor and miserable you look? So what I despise you, can't you bear some criticism as well? I'm sure you must have heard enough of it by now to be used to it", she sneeredA rage of fury was slowly building up inside Jonah. At this time, he had tolerated their abuses and insults enough"Come on Jonah, don't think we wouldn't see through your sham. Everyone in college knows that you married Ava because you were desperate to change your miserable situationI guess it served you well that you became the live-in son-in-law who was despised by his family" Evette said and chuckled softly"Oh, you didn't think we knew? The whole town knows Jonah Smith, you're nothing but a miserable loser who couldn't even afford a decent meal back then and couldn't afford to keep his wife either. Yes, I heard it, Ava left you for some ri
"Well Jer, looks like your word holds up afterall", Jonah said Jeremy glared at him faintly and shook his head. He hated that he was being forced to do this, even more so for a pathetic loser like JonahHowever, he needed to bail himself out or he'd stand to lose his reputation. He shifted his gaze towards Jonah and sighed in irritation A few seconds later, a young man in a bespoke suit entered the building with several guards walking swiftly behind himHis eyes scoured the room like a predator looking for unfortunate prey, and when they settled on Jonah, a sinister smirk stretched his lipsWhen the rest of the shoppers saw him, they immediately started murmuring, struck in awe. In Eldredge City, the Giorgio family belonged to the top one percent of the social pyramid. As such they were only seen in exclusive events and accidental paparazzi run-insEvery girl in the city had dreamt of a chance to meet the golden boy Peter Giorgio, so when he made his appearance here, the entire crow
"I don't want to do that" Peter mumbled sheepishly and shook his head in disbelief "Indulge me, Jonah, why is that?" He asked glaring at Jonah Jonah smirked and turned around pointing at all the cameras aimed at them"Look around Mr Giorgio. All these people are taking records of this, what do you think will happen when the public sees the director of Giorgio Automobile manhandling an innocent customer?", Jonah said with a teasing smile plastered on his faceHe knew that Peter would not be so careless as to risk his public image and family's brand, and even if he did, Jonah could easily take on all his guards without breaking a sweatAt this time, Jonah shifted his gaze and looked around at the disproving looks from the crowd. Within his heart, he knew Jonah was right. If he instructed his boys to attack him here, he would be subject to media condemnation and public defamationHowever, he suddenly smiled and shifted his gaze to Jonah"You think you are so slick, don't you Jonah" "B
Peter frowned slightly and answered "Yeah, I'm Mark Giorgio's kid. What does it have to do with you?",Henry glared at Peter coldly and then his lips curled into a cocky smile "You're nothing like your father" he said dismissively Upon hearing this, Peter clenched his fist in annoyance and snapped "What are you fools still doing standing around? Shut this fool up! I want his teeth!","Why do you have to make this difficult? I just want a meeting with your father, we can forget about the car debt then and wipe the slate clean" Jonah interjected calmlyPeter blurted angrily "How do I say this so your peanut-sized brain will understand, my father is busy and does not have time to entertain mediocre losers like you!", As he spoke, the guards withdrew their metal batons and started approaching Henry and JonahAt this time, Henry held up his fingers and said "Hold on a minute guys" The guards exchanged puzzled glances between themselves. Henry and Jonah did not seem afraid of them in the
Peter's face was as pale as a sheet of paper and his body trembled tremendously when Jonah said that. Jonah continued in a cold tone "You thought that I was some loser nobody, that is why you could treat me anyway and talk down on me, but look at you now, down on your knees before a man you felt you were better than. Tell me Peter, how does it feel knowing that after all these years, I'm still above you. How does it feel knowing that your place is always going to be beneath this loser?", Jonah said mockingly "Think about that for a moment" he added with a teasing smile, patted his face, and stood upright. As for Peter, he crouched on the floor completely stunned. He didn't dare to resist even the slightest against Jonah's act to humiliate himSlowly Jonah shifted his gaze towards Evette, who was hiding in a corner at this time. She had watched everything unfold before her eyes and still could not understand how the loser got the heir of the Giorgio empire to fall down to his feet
There was silence on the other end of the line before Jerry spoke again "I'm sorry sir, tomorrow?" He asked in disbelief"Yes, move up the launch date to tomorrow" Jonah repeated firmly Jerry pondered for a while and said hesitantly "But... sir, are you sure that is the best thing to do right now. This is obviously some clickbait and whoever spread this news wants you to reveal your identity. I think we should hold off on the launch until we can find out more information about this person", Jerry suggested"I'm aware of that Jerry" Jonah's calm voice resonated"The launch is going to be tomorrow, I've got a plan. I just need you to do exactly as I tell you and we should be able to fish out this bastard", Jonah repliedHe then continued "Invite Ms Janet, she is the second person in charge of Grindel Enterprise. She would act as our president at the launch and no one would know",Jonah's plan was foolproof. Just like his, Ms Lowe's identity had remained anonymous, so when she made an a
Upon entering the boutique, the shop attendants were extremely shocked upon the horrid sightA man with a forehead tatoo was obviously the leader of the group. He stepped forward, scanned the room then pointed at the receptionist with an evil grin "You! Come here!"Although trembling in fear, the ummoning courage, the young receptionist hurriedly approached them with a bitter smile on her face, "How may I help you gentlemen?" She asked politely Before opening the shop there, Givon heard that there were protection racketeers lurking in the neighborhood. Due to its gentrified state, this part of the the city was abandoned by the police forces and deemed a dead town. The previous owner of this boutique was said to have been harassed by these youngsters that he went bankrupt and had to close the shopAs such, Elms Street soon became an abandoned neighbourhood filled with thugs, mob Lords and a high crime rate.Despite this, Givon had rented this place and opened his boutique here as he f
