Jonah looked at the suit for a long time unsure of how to react. He felt a little undeserving to wear the suit. The more he stared at this image, his mind pondered on what would have happened if he had taken the affairs of the family's empire more seriously In truth, Donald expected that there would be an uprising within the family. Jonay partly blamed himself for his parent's disappearance. He felt if he was strong enough or took their company's affairs seriously, he could have succeeded his father and his family never would've become a threat Slowly, with a head full of thoughts, he marched towards the suit and trailed his fingers along the seams and intricate patterns of the suit"It's one of my finest pieces" Givon's voice interjected, bringing him out from his trail of thoughts "The entire body of the suit is made of high-grade kevlar material, strong enough to stop a bullet from a ten-meter distance. It is completely undetectable because of the thinning nature of the material
"He said he couldn't let this person get in the way", Jerry replied"That he has a plan""He has a plan. What does that even mean, doesn't he understand the danger that we're in if our identities get revealed?" Janet blurted angrilyJerry remained quiet for some moments, allowing her time to process her emotions, and then continued"Uhm Janet, I understand that you're pissed, but I think it's a good plan. It'll help you guys get closer to figuring out whoever is behind this","Jonah knows that whoever found out this collaboration and revealed it to the public did so to find you guys, force you out of your hiding. So they're going to be around at the launch to see it happen""Which means that we can find them" Janet interjected calmly, and shook her head. It was a good plan, but she still felt some apprehension towards it"Yes, exactly" Jerry replied"I already have my best people, they're going to stake out the event tomorrow evening. Everyone in attendance will be processed and we're
"It's a suit," Janet said slightly confused"It was meant for my father" Jonah replied dejectedly Janet arched her brows curiously, and then shot him a sympathetic look "I'm sorry Jonah" she said"But I need you to get your act together. We have a lot of enemies, we can't afford to be soft right now",Janet hurriedly persuaded with a coy smile "I assure you, our parents are fine. We just need to find them, but for now, let's focus on the launch"Jonah nodded in acknowledgment, pulled out his phone, and called Henry. He needed his security detail to be ready in case things got out of hand at the launchAs soon as he called, the man answered "Mr. Blake", he said gently"Mr Boyd, I'll be needing your services. There's a new target on my back and I'd like you to take care of it. Now, as the President of this enterprise, my hands cannot be tied to this, so I need you to handle this entirely on your account",Henry's confusion could be heard over the phone as he asked "What do you need me
The entire Smith family was over the moon and extremely delighted. It was the most important moment in the family. The news about the Smith family being the associate partner in the Grindel Project and the invitation of the president to the launch had spread like wildfire all over Eldredge CityMorraine had invited Vic to make it up to him after what happened at Jonah's house, and as usual, despite currently being broke, Vic donned a meticulously expensive suit and a slick hairstyleAs soon as they walked into the hall, a waiter saw them and immediately came up to Vic, greeting him diligentlyAt that time, Vic saw Jonah too and immediately there was a trace of disdain in his eyes as he scanned him and said with a wry grin "You're desperately trying to fit into the higher society aren't you Jonah? I bet you're not even on the invite list, yet somehow you managed to sneak in again","Tell me, where did you even find this ridiculous suit? You look like a butler trying to impress his mas
"Yes, Master Blake. Janet is briefing the rest of the board members on the plan. Everything is going smoothly","And George?" Jonah suddenly asked"The old man?" "He doesn't have a clue of what he's about to do","What about him? What do you want to do? Should we kick him out?" Jerry asked gesturing towards Vic. Right at this moment, a waiter approached and poured another shot into Jonah's cup"Vic Francis" Jonah said with a trace of disdain in his voice"That bastard is up to something, so don't kick him out yet" Right at this moment, Jonah's phone beeped, he quickly retrieved the phone to see a text from Henry"We're in position Master Blake, let us know if there are any signs of trouble" Right at this moment, Jerry tugged Jonah gently and gestured for him to look at the stage At this moment, Janet was slowly and elegantly making her way up to the stage with the spotlight shining and illuminating her debonair lookShe looked around in astonishment and a dazzling gaze, before stan
"I will," George said with much enthusiasm. Upon hearing his reply, Jonah smiled mischievously, but right at that moment, he noticed a man in a beige suit and slick hair staring in his direction from across the roomHe didn't look like one of the rich snobs at this launch. This man had a sinister aura about him. One Jonah was quite familiar with. This was not just an ordinary bodyguard, this was a marksman Having noticed the man, Jonah composed himself, quickly assuming that this could have been one of the people looking for him. This meant only one thing, the man he was looking for could not be far away from here. Very possibly, he was in this room with themAfter a short while, Jonah got up and excused himself. In his mind, he knew that if this was one of the people after him, the mysterious man would signal his thug to follow behind him quicklyAt this time, Morraine shifted her gaze and saw Jonah, but did not pay much attention to him. She assumed the deep wrinkled frowns on his
Jonah stood up as everyone gaped in disbelief. In an instant, the entire hall focused their gazes on him"Damn you! Stop embarrassing yourself and disrupting the atmosphere of this place! Sit the f*ck down!" Vic blurted angrily and stood upHe had enough of this bastard always trying to steal the limelight. Didn't he look at where he was now?! None of the fearsome bosses dared to stand up at a moment like this, but this loser had the audacity to try and steal the limelight now, knowing fully well he couldn't have been the president of GrindelThe thought was aggravating At this time, most of the people exchanged glances, puzzled "D*mn could he really be the President of Grindel Enterprise?" A man dressed in a grey tuxedo asked his friendImmediately after that, they shook their head earnestly"No, there's no way. If he were really the president, that man wouldn't dare to scold him now, would he?","We all know who he is, and why he's bitter towards the man. Poor Vic, he thought it
"Mr. George, this is the start of something remarkable for you" Jerry reassured"So enjoy the rest of your evening, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for having us and welcoming us to your city" Jerry said and stepped down in a hurrySome people were stunned and bewildered by the plot twist. At the end of the day, they did not still find out who really was the President of the company. They groaned in frustration, but no one wanted to say anything. Vic was still horrified and hence immediately got up and followed Jerry. At this point, he could not ignore the questions he had anymore. He had to find out for himself what was going on. If Jonah was really the president, then it would mess up everything he planned. "Hey VP!" He called Jerry, going after him in a hurry, "Can I have a moment of your time?", Vic asked Jerry shot him a wry smile and tapped his wristwatch, "I would love to have a conversation with you sir, but I have to catch up to someone right now. Let's do this later", he
