The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 64 "The Right to Be By His Side"
The party was held at the mansion’s garden. The huge outdoor space was decorated with lighting string lights, Votive candles and fragrant flowers. Foods in the buffet area were also set. For the music, they hired musicians to play mellow or jazz instrumental soft music during the event, that will complement the dinner setting and that people can keep a conversation going even with background music. With everything on set, the party started. The guests of the party, who are usually busy people, took the special time to come to the party. Who won’t be interested to see the only son of the multi-billionaire and successful man, John Hopkins? As time passed by, the garden was filled with guests with different skin color, and some with different language. While the guests were waiting for the final event to start, cocktails and appetizers were served by the waiters and the staff. The high level of service made everyone feel good and cosy. Holding their drinks in a refined way, guests
The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 65 "Not in the Same League"
Gaston checked his phone. But there was no text from someone he expected to see here. “Is he really not coming?” Chairman Harold was invited to the party. But he couldn’t attend because he had to go to New York and attend a meeting. However, there was one more person who Gaston waited for. It is his business partner, Griffti. “He’s serious when he said that he would not come,” Gaston murmured then looked back at his partner, Jillian. She looked so tired. Well, they walked around the party and met a lot of people. They all asked the same question; ‘Is she your girlfriend?’ It was tiring to deny their relationship and receive flattering words at the same time. “Are you fine?” Gaston asked Jillian. “Me? Oh sure. I am. Just a bit awkward. Attending parties like this isn’t my forte.” Gaston chuckled. “Ahhh, I saw Jurgen before somewhere. But now he’s gone,” Jillian said. Gaston narrowed his eyes to her. “You said you don’t like him?” “It’s not like that! Hey.” “Just kidding.
The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 66 "Perks of Knowing the Future"
[“Vehicles that once seemed like the far-distant future were becoming more tangible every year. And now, the era of the hoverbike is finally at hand! The Protix company launched their Protix 100 prism hoverbike this Thursday, which shook the whole world. Protix 100 prism hoverbike is equipped with a conventional engine and four battery-powered motors and promises to fly for 40 minutes at up to 100 kph. Thhis black and red hoverbike consists of a motorcycle-like body on top of propellers. As Hopkins invested with this project, many already purchased half a million dollar vehicles, which means you’ll have to be well-heeled to join it. Recently, the Protix Company announced that it would begin deliveries of its long-anticipated flying motorcycle in the first half of 2022. No license is needed to fly the carbon-fiber craft, but it is not yet legally allowed to fly on the busy pack streets. However, the Hamington Architecture Company released a statement that the track for the hoverbike is
The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 67 "The Troublemaker in the Mall"
The CEO of Hopkins Mall arrived. All of the mall’s employees stood in line as Gaston walked in the center with his secretary Lanceil and multiple bodyguards. He is not just the CEO but the heir of the Hopkins corporation, so having guards with him is a norm. The employees, men and women, couldn’t help but to get amazed at their cool CEO. His reputation increased ever since he signed a file protecting his employees against the abusive VVIP members of the Hopkins department store. From afar, Jillian watched her childhood friend walking. Looking at him like this, Jillian realized how different Gaston’s and her world are. She clearly saw that during the party. Even so, she’s happy that Gaston invited her to be his partner. Although, they didn’t had the chance to dance. ‘Gosh. What am I thinking? Me? Dancing with the heir of the Hopkins group?’Jillian was drowned in her thoughts. She didn’t know that right now, Gaston is standing next to her and staring at her. If it is not for her
The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 68 "Maneuvering Situations"
“Misdemeanour is punishable by one year imprisonment and a fine up to $5,000. I can sue you for slapping me, Ma’am,” Jillian said to the rude customer. The woman, Yanice Himber, scoffed at Jillian. “It seems like you knew a lot about laws. Then, you probably knew this.” She leaned closer and whispered, “Even if you sue me, do you think you can win against me?” Jillian bit her lip while looking at the evil woman. “How much money will you waste trying to win from a big shot? I wonder about that.” Even if the government protects the people, sometimes justice only side with the stronger. That’s why wealthy people win against the poor. That’s how unfair society is. As Jillian kept her mouth shut, a tall man stood next to them. Jillian and Yanice turned their heads and saw Gaston. The employees gasped in surprise, and Jillian’s mouth widened. She didn’t expect that the CEO would go here and fix the problem, rather than sending his secretary or a director. Meanwhile, Yanice, who ha
The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 69 "Buying and Selling Stocks"
In front of the gambling table and while holding poker cards in his hands, Jurgen recalled the words Divine told him during the party. [“I CANNOT GAIN ANYTHING FROM A GUARD LIKE YOU. The reason why I want to be Gaston’s partner is to have the power to inherit Hamington. That’s why I am asking you to help but… what is this? Do you really love me? If you really love me, you will do your best to do what I wanted you to do. But you disappointed me.”] Jurgen thought of this: Divine only needed Gaston for power and not because she loves him. Therefore, Jurgen was determined to be a worthy man for her. And that’s why, he’s here, gambling his luck. ‘If I win this, I will build a business and be a worthy guy for you, Divine. Just wait and see,’ he thought. Jurgen smirked before he placed his cards on the table. [“I told Jurgen how to steal from the company funds without getting caught. He did it right away and went straight to gamble.”] Secretary David informed Gaston through a phone c
The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 70 "Hour Investment Company"
“Gaston! Gaston!” Edgar came to Gaston while shouting. “D-Did you watch the news?” Edgar asked. “Why?” Gaston responded. “The CSB filed stated that they are going to file for bankruptcy. The market capitalization had dropped and the price of stock decreased by more than 97%! This is exactly what you told me before!” After hearing the news, Gaston replied nonchalantly. “Ahhh, really?” “Why are you so calm? Aren’t you shocked that your business premonition came true? And if ever you didn’t sell your shares, you’d be one of those who are crying right now because they lost a lot of money.” It is because Gaston already knew what would happen. When he was in prison, there were police guards who invested in the CSB company. Everyday, the value of stock increased and they were all so happy. They thought they’ll gonna be rich in no time. However, one Tuesday morning, the CSB announced that they will file for bankruptcy. A lot lost their money. Those, who pulled out their shares bef
The Return of Gaston Harrison Chapter 71 "Movie Festival"
Outside the cinema, Gaston stood while waiting. He looked at his wrist watch, wondering how long he should wait. “Gaston!” He turned his head to the side and finally, he saw the person he was waiting to come. On a cold day of spring, Jillian came to him while wearing a peach dress and black doll shoes. She wore her long hair down and painted pink lipstick on her lips. She looks very pretty today. “Did I make you wait for too long?” Jillian asked Gaston. Gaston shook his head. “It’s alright. By the way, you look good today.” “T-Thank you,” she shyly said. ‘I did my best to look good for you,’ Jillian said in her head while tucking her hair behind her ear. Her heart was beating so hard. She did not imagine that there would be a day, Gaston would ask her for a date. Yesterday, Gaston called Jillian to say that the woman who assaulted her a few days ago, was brought to prison for multiple crimes. Then, he asked her if she had time tomorrow and if she wanted to go watch a movie wi

Thanks to Dr. Yuhana’s research and the cure that Hamington and Hopkin’s Medical Research Corporation revealed. “Dr. Yuhana is there!” “Quick!” When Yuhana walked out of the Medical Research building, many reporters waited for her outside. They were all eager to get an interview to the doctor who invented the medicine that saved millions of people around the glove. Wearing her white doctor’s gown, Yuhana looked at the reporters, which were blocked but the Corporation’s guards. “Dr. Yuhana! How did you come up with the medicine?” “It is true that you and the two corporation foresaw the virus and created the cure before it appeared?” “You created the medicine against a deadly virus within a year!

A deadly virus from an animal affected of SARS and MERS will kill million of people starting from December of 2022. Dr. Yuhan, who heard it, could hardly believe what she just heard. “He’s insane. It is impossible to guess a virus that hasn’t arrived yet,” she mumbled before she heard a kid groaning in pain. Yuhan quickly moved up and examined the kid. "Tumbo lako vipi?" (How's your stomach?) she asked to a kid who showed symptoms of the Waterborne disease. "Inauma," (It hurts) he said while pressing his stomach. The only treatment for this is drinking plenty of safe water, rest, and take over-the-counter diarrheal medication. But... "Una maji, daktari?" (do you have some water, doctor?) he asked with teary eyes. ‘What should I do? I didn't get any today,’ Yuhana worried. "Where should I get some water?" she murmured as she tied her hair up. "Excuse me," a voice called her. When she tilted his head, she saw Gaston. "Do you need some help?" Since the day Gaston came there,

With approximately 30.37 million km2 area, Gaston arrived at the second largest continent in the world – Africa. Gaston saw the breathtaking natural landscapes, rich cultural diversity, and wildlife safaris. Although he was amazed at the country’s beauty, he was aware that he didn’t come here just to take a vacation. Upon his research, Dr. Yuhan was sent to Democratic Republic of the Congo, Maneima to do a research about the waterborne disease around the town. Enduring the very hot weather, Gaston went to the Maneima to find the doctor. He didn’t take his guards with him, as he doesn’t want to appear like a super rich person. Instead, he only too Secretary Lanceil with him. “Are we there yet?” Secretary Lanceil asked to Gaston. Gaston looked back and saw his secretary catching his breath. He wanted to laugh at him. “That’s why I told you that you didn’t need to come with me,” Gaston said while walking. “How can I do that, Sir? You are my boss,” Lanceil answered. Not long after

By 31 December 2022, the World Health Organization will inform the world about the cases of pneumonia in Wuhan City, Province of China. It will be the start of the pandemic virus named Covid-19. Gaston cannot stop a virus from spreading. But he found out a way to minimize the casualties it would result. And also, things to do to maintain the economy growth of the world. That was the reason why he offered Griffti to run a huge Medical project with him before November ends. ‘With Hamington’s construction’s ability, it is possible,’ Griffti thought. “But I don’t know why he suddenly thought of that,” he added. Gaston helped him and the Hopkins to grow because he saw the future six months before he died in the past. But now, Gaston has no idea about what will happen in the next months and years. “Gaston is crazy,” Edgar said. Sitting inside the Hour Investment Company, which became their hangout place, Griffti looked at Edgar. “Did Gaston come to you and ask you to do things al

Traveling in the future was worth it.Gaston and Jane went back to the country. And once they were back, Jane went to visit Gaston’s father, John.“How was your trip to Switzerland?” John asked to Jane.Jane fidgeted her fingers above her lap. She and Gaston hadn’t told John that they are not in a relationship.“Did Gaston confess to you?” John teased the lady.Jane’s face reddened, and it was enough for John to figure out what happened.“So, are you two dating?” he asked.Jane’s mouth opened and closed several times. She couldn’t say the truth, or lie in front of Gaston’s father.John laughed at Jane’s reaction. He understood that Jane wanted Gaston to tell this to John, and therefore he stopped teasing the lady.“Don’t worry. I will wait for Gaston to tell me everything.”“T-Thank you, Uncle,” Jane said.“Don’t nee

Chapter 139 (Epilogue 14 "Settling Things")
Griffti, the Chairman of the Hamington Corporation, was working alone in his office. Even though years passed by, he was still having a hard time defeating his disease. Especially after his grandfather died in the hands of his cousin, Divine. ‘Will there be a day when I will feel peace?’ Griffti asked that to himself. Knock knock. He looked at the door of his office. “Sir, it’s me,” his secretary announced. “Come in.” The secretary came in, but he stopped and stood from a great distance. Serving Griffti, the secretary knew that his boss hates close contact. Or else, his panic disorder will attack. “Chairman, I need to report something.” “Tell me.” “You received mail.” “You could have just sent it to my email account.” “N-No. The mail was a real letter.” “Real letter?” “Yes. The man said that I should deliver this directly to you.” Frowning, Griffti responded, “Throw it away. You should be careful and stop receiving suspicious thing from a random stranger.” “Sir, the m

Gaston and Edgar hung out at the rooftop of the apartment building where Edgar was living.Looking at the bright City, they drink beer together.“It’s fortunate that my father didn’t take you to prison,” Gaston said to Edgar.Edgar glared at him.“I thought I am going to die while his guards were chasing after me. Be thankful that you are my friend.”“Yes. Thank you so much, Edgar.”“Huh! As long as you know.”The two of them took sips on their beers.“So, what is your plan now? You talked to Jurgen and stopped his death. But you still have one day left. Do you have another plan?”‘If I will go back to the present, I might as well learn more things in this time that will help me,’ Gaston thought.“Edgar, you still following the economic reports around the world, right?”“Of course! Even if I am living like this, I am still hoping that someday, I would be given a chance to start a business again. I have a lot of ideas, especially after the pandemic.”“Then, can you tell me everything t

“That’s right. I am the friend who died for you, Jurgen.” What did Jurgen feel when he saw his best friend? Remorse. Guilt. Happiness. “You’re alive. You are… alive.” Crying, Jurgen went close to Gaston. He held his shoulder, as he wanted to make sure that this is not an illusion which he usually saw every day. “I am so happy. So happy!” Jurgen cried out loud. His knees gave in, and he knelt on the ground, lowering his head. When Gaston saw it, he felt the pain inside his chest. Gideon was right. Jurgen regretted everything and he was willing to end his life for Gaston. “Sorry, Gaston. Please, forgive me,” Jurgen cried, kissing the floor. Gaston only looked down at him. “I was wrong. I gave up our friendship just for my greed. I… I deserve to die, Gaston.” Gaston knew Jurgen was serious because he did end his life just to turn back time. “I thought that if I have your life, if I became rich, and if I got Divine, I will be happy,” Jurgen added. “But no.

Edgar had no choice but to listen to Gaston’s story.Of course, he could hardly believe that a dead person came back alive.But Gaston knew one way to convince him.“So, you mean, in another world, another time, the two of us succeeded in launching the Protix Hoverbike?” Edgar asked in disbelief.Gaston nodded his head.Although it was unbelievable, the news made Edgar so happy.“That was… awesome,” Edgar uttered, and he burst out crying. “I was miserable for years after my wife abandoned me and sold my invention to another company. I spent years in jail, and now, I am living so hard.”Gaston stared at his friend and mourned his grievance.“Actually, I still could not believe that you are Gaston and you traveled from another time. But hearing this made me so fucking happy.”A smile spread on Gaston’s lips. Even the other time, Edgar believed him although he could not understand all of Gaston’s words.“Then, I have a question,” Edgar said. “If everything you said is true, why did you
