The Grand Entrance of Jack Chapter 42
Jack got to the New York State board of public accounting early enough, when most of the staff had not come to work.His eyes were red and puffy, like overpriced berries. The thought of the allegation weighed heavily on him; he had a sleepless night.Jack had called his company’s lawyer, and he gave him the reason he couldn't come, explaining he was out of town.The lawyer happened to be a general lawyer; most of them who owned an accounting firm patronized his services.So he knew he had to face this alone with his head held high.Jack inquired and met the licensing board investigator, who questioned him about the accusation. And then he gathered all the necessary documents that he would present as witness statements of evidence to the accounting license unit.He asked Jack to go and have a seat while he waited on the judgment from the board.After some moments, he heard a low, menacing tone that lingered in his ears, just behind where he sat. “Who do we have at the mercy of the Boar

Jack adjusted his shirt as he stepped into the studio to have a seat. Across from where he sat was Mr. Jones, with a smug grin plastered across his face.A woman with a perfectly silver-coiffed mane showed up. She happened to be the host, “Welcome to 'Financial Face-Off'! We have a serious allegation. Mr. Jones Cloud here claims that you, Mr. Jack Ford, have been operating your accounting firm with forged licenses and permits.”With the revelation, everything was beginning to make more sense to Jack. It was clear that Mr. Jones was the mastermind behind the accusation. He knew there was more to the public audit; it was a calculated attempt to destroy his career. With the thought of that, his blood ran cold.Jones leaned forward, his voice dripping with mock concern. “Indeed, he is.”“Hold on, we didn't ask for your opinion for now,” the host interrupted him and continued. “The integrity of the financial sector hinges on qualified professionals. I believe a live demonstration of your

Later, as Jack exited the studio, a group of people approached him, their expressions filled with newfound respect. He recognized them as those who came with Mr. Jones earlier; they happened to be Mr. Jones' clients and investors.“Mr. Jacks,” one remarked, “your explanation was excellent. I'd be very interested in discussing my financial needs with your firm.”Jack, vindicated and buoyed by the turn of events, offered a genuine smile. “Thank you. I'd be happy to.”The other inquired, “I hope you don't mind if I switch my company to the winning team’s accounting firm, sir?” Others nodded simultaneously at his request.It all sounded hilarious to Jack that they referred to his firm as the winning team, and he let out a wild smile. “Of course, I don't mind.” Jack replied, and they left the spot with high expectations.The ordeal had not only cleared Jack’s name but also transformed a potential allegation into an unexpected opportunity.As Jack approached his car to leave, he heard his n

Immediately, Jack walked into his house and said, “Congratulations, Jack!” Jasmine exclaimed, holding up a tablet displaying news articles that read, “Accountant Excels in Public Audit Demonstration. Jackal and Co. Enterprise’s president wins over a rival.”“I think they're calling you the 'financial explainer extraordinaire,'” Jasmine teased.Social media was flooded with praise for his clear and insightful explanation.Jack chuckled, a wave of excitement washing over him. “Extraordinaire, huh? Maybe a bit much, but I'll take it.” Subsequently, he made himself comfortable in his favorite spot in the sitting room, where he collapsed onto a couch.“Please, let's have a drink. This calls for celebration.” Blade, who couldn't contain how happy he was over his boss' victory, ordered the maid, who served them two bottles of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Grand Cru.“Young master, you killed the show. I watched everything play out from the beginning until the end. You are indeed a genius. To

“I came to congratulate you on your victory, boss,” Kate said as she sat on the seat offered by Jack in his office.“I didn't get to know about it earlier; I would have watched it as I heard it was displayed live on national TV, but I got the news later online after that.”“Thank you, Kate,” Jack replied with a wave of a smile across his face as he sipped from his mug of coffee.“Indeed, you have taken the company's name to the highest phase. I can confidently say that I am a proud worker. All thanks to your brave approach to the whole problem,” Kate praised her boss and continued. “The last time you were asking me if I had a hand in the issue, and the next thing, you scaled through it all.” She narrated as she remembered when his boss asked her about having anything to do with the board, saying he had some forged license, but she has gotten to understand that Jack had to react that way. “Once again, congratulations, boss.”“I am impressed with your words. Thank you.” He knew he at

Kate asked for Jack’s personal office computer, and Jack slid it to her side, while he and Blade were right behind her with their seats to watch what she was about to do. The alluring fragrance that escaped from her was just the right scent, but it was the most inappropriate time to think about that.She tried to log in after Jack put in his password and noticed the computer was malfunctioning, as it continuously displayed corrupted financial data and error codes.Everyone was panicked, including the one who said she was helping to fish the hacker out, Kate. This was more than what she expected; she never knew the extent to which the hacker had gone. It was written all over her that she got a bit tense and confused as her fingers kept panicking, but she would rather not give up; she believed she could try out something.Jack slumped back in his chair, the weight of the situation pressing down on him. This wasn't a random attack. Someone with a clear motive was trying to destroy him, h

Jack and Blade were in a mask of anticipation as they waited for their encounter with the elusive anonymous contact at the city mall.Fifteen minutes from the time that they arrived there, a young man, barely out of his teens, slid into the booth at the mall where Jack and Blade were seated.He was clad in a hoodie that seemed a size too large, with a worn baseball cap.“Bazz,” the message indicated. How he got to know the exact place they were seated to locate them was astonishing to them.Bazz exuded a nervous energy that clashed with the reputation of a skilled hacker. Just then, a decision simmered within Jack. He could expose Bazz to the authorities there, potentially putting the young boy's future at risk. But then, that wouldn't fetch him any good, nor would the young boy. So he was moved to talk some senses into his skull.“How can a young guy like you, who is barely eighteen, engage himself in hacking into people’s digital data and compromising their security system? Don’t y

“Mr. Williams just reached me now. He complained that some stronger hand had countered his influence on the media, and everything halted. He said there is no clear motive for what this anonymous person is about to do,” Mr. Andrew narrated as soon as he saw Scott enter the house.Scott, who was just getting back from work, met his boss in the sitting room, who got back two hours before he did. “That is so serious,” Scott replied.“It may not be as serious as we think. Besides, he said he was trying to put everything back in check.”“I sincerely hope he does.” Scott shrugged.“To think of it, what about the person you said is a cyber expert, blah blah blah?” Mr. Andrew inquired.Scott twisted his face a little. “Well, I tried to reach him to know what's up, but I can't even connect to him. I don't know where he stays, so I can go meet him to know why his number isn't reachable.”“What sort of story is that, Scott? Does anyone who is into this kind of business fail to do what he is supp

“Getting married to you is one of the best decisions I have made,” Jack complimented Jasmine, while Jasmine kept on grinning from ear to ear stylishly.They were relaxing in the sitting room, as it was the weekend.“Mum, can you join me in my game if you don't mind?” Amanda interrupted the lovey-dovey moments Jack and Jasmine were having together.“I will join you soon, you can go back to your room, babygirl,” Jasmine hastily replied and Amanda winked excitedly at her and left.Not long after Amanda left, one of the housekeepers came by. “Good day, young master. Someone is here to see you, and she said her name is Nancy."With raised, angry-looking brows, Jack turned and said to the housekeeper, “Tell her to leave at once and never to step foot here.” Looking so bitter, like he just heard terrible news, he added inwardly, “I wonder who showed her the way to my house.”Jasmine tapped him gently on his lap. “Darling, that was a bit harsh. Please hear her out first.”“There is nothing wr

Jack and Blade were watching the news of Richard's jail sentence.Before then, Jack had made sure that Mark was set free just like they had agreed, even though the police finally came to rescue him. But then he remembered that Mark almost got into trouble just because the latter wanted to help him save his daughter and Jasmine, if he had agreed to do what he wished.He didn't stop at making sure that Mark escaped; he also ensured that Mark's grandmother was sent to the best hospital for proper medication treatment.That was the least he could do for himself at the time.Mark in turn appreciated him, and Jack offered him the sum of money he needed to set up a business.“I never saw you as this happy, young master.” Blade commented.“Of course, I need to be happy. Knowing I don't have to worry about anything ever again. At least now, Mr. Moe, Mr. Andrew, and now Richard are all in jail, and I will make sure they rot in jail for all I care.”Jack misquoted, coming from a completely diff

Jack saw that as an opportunity to at least express what he feels for Amanda, as he had initially given her the impression that Amanda was the one who needed her more.But right now, he could feel he needs Jasmine more in his life, even more than Amanda does, and he wouldn't miss this moment to prove it.Thank goodness that none of them lost their lives, especially Amanda, as she was on the verge of losing it while they got to the hospital, but Mercy said no.Jack had spent over an hour in the kitchen just to make steaks, mac 'n' cheese, and fruit salad.Amanda had requested it, and since love needs to be expressed by going out of one's way to get things done,.He had to do it, even though he doesn't enjoy being in the kitchen, hoping Jasmine would enjoy it as well.Jack called out, "My two babies, dinner is ready."Amanda's room was occupied by both Jasmine and Amanda.Even though there was a lot of room at Jack's residence, Amanda and Jasmine can't be separated, at least not now tha

From what he could read, he could sense that something was happening behind his nose.Could it be that Mark was bargaining with Jack on the instructions that were given to him or something?The thought of it made him almost go wacko, as no one crosses that line and gets free with him.Even if not immediately, he would certainly make sure the person went down 6 feet below.Richard pulled out his gun from his pocket and placed it on Mark's head. I gave you instructions on what to do, and you dare try to do otherwise?” He blurted it out angrily.“You pull that trigger on that guy's head,” he instructed one of his boys that followed him inside while looking in Jack's direction, to show who he was referring his boy to.“Then you,” he said, gesturing to the other person, “go to bring his daughter and side chick where they are kept.”As soon as the guy left to get Jasmine and Amanda out, he said, “Hold on, don't pull the trigger yet.” He quickly instructed the first guy he had asked to shoot

“Jack.” The words got choked in his throat. Everyone in the city knew about the latest Jack Ford. The once-hidden CEO of Agron Incorporation had decided to pipe down all this time.He knew that if it's true, then the person right before him held immense power, more than even the president of the state, and the incorporation thrived powerfully.But then Mark couldn't believe what he heard. With a smirk, he said, “You think you can fool me, right?”“Believe it or doubt it at your own risk.’ but their business thrived.Then the realization that it should be true hit Mark: was he the same person he heard had decided to keep a low profile along?Mark fell on his face immediately at Jack's feet. “Please, I beg you, spare them. Please,” he pleaded, and Jack stood up, as it was obvious he was unmoved by his gesture. He knew he couldn't fall so cheap as he was sure that Mark was only being a cheap hypocrite, he thought as he walked to the west side of the room, examining the view properly.“D

Just then, the captain's phone rang, interrupting his thoughts. He looked down at his pants, where his phone was, and then immediately went back to Jack.“I will advise you to pick up that call; you might be saving a life. Who knows.” Jack teased with mocking looks and enjoyed the helpless expression on the captain's face.The captain hastily picked up the call, and it was quite a familiar voice that he heard.“Mr. Mark…” The caregiver he had employed to take care of his grandmother's voice came through as if it were vibrating.“Mrs. Joy,” The captain called out to confirm the voice he just heard.The captain's eyes widened in shock as the pistol he held earlier fell from his hand, while Jack gave him a condensed look of confirmation.“You fool,” he muttered, but he could be heard as he watched the captain finish his call.As soon as he got off the phone, he turned to Jack and said, “Don't let your men touch my grandmother. She is all that I have!” The captain started with a loud voic
