Chapter 124 Plan To Kill
Jack was woken up by a knock on the door. It was Celine, reminding him that it was almost time for them to depart. Although Celine had previously had no intention of coming back to the prince mansion after the swimming pool incidence, when she remembered that she was now competing with Wendy, she decided to take this opportunity to come upstairs and wake him up.r
But of course, the moment that Jack woke up, she had already rushed back downstairs, not waiting to be reminded of what had happened back then.r
Jack got out of the bed and headed downstairs after he was done with changing his clothes. He was fully prepared. Since they were going to hang out, there was nothing that he had to prepare other than dress properly and have enough money to spend.r
When he got downstairs, he found that Faith was also present. It seemed that someone had already prepared breakfast. He was impressed. After all, this could be said to be the first time that he had someone preparing him food in about four years, other than in the restaurants or stalls.r
He wondered who it was that had prepared the food. But, he didn't ask questions about it. He was sure that the one that had cooked would surely reveal herself.r
After sitting around the dining table, the group of five began eating while chatting. Since Faith was just a few years older than the other four, she was able to chat with the three girls comfortably.r
On the other hand, Jack was almost left out, as the things that they were talking about were mainly concerning the ladies. He as a man, what could he say?r
After breakfast, Celine asked, "Jack, how was my cooking?"r
Jack was a little surprised. He asked, "You are the one that had prepared the breakfast?" He had been staying here with Celine for two days. But, in none of those two days did she offer to prepare the food for them.r
It was always the other way round, he prepared the meal. He always took himself as the host. So, there was no way that he was going to let a visitor cook for him.r
Even today, had it not been for the fact that he was sleeping, he would have definitely cooked. But, if the ladies offered to cook, he would gladly accept.r
"What? You thought that I couldn't cook?" Celine pouted unhappily. Being the first time that he had seen her making such an expression, Jack was obviously stunned. But all the same, he would just go on and stare.r
Celine herself hadn't realized that she had greatly opened up to Jack from the moment that she had admitted to herself that she indeed loved Jack. So, she was now showing the side that she always showed to her mother and sisters. Although she was quite free with Jack, she was still reserved in the least.r
Noticing Jack's fixated gaze on her, she blushed a little when she noticed that she had just pouted. She glared at Jack and asked, "What are you looking at? Do you think that I can't cook?"r
"How else can I know that you are a good cook when I have never seen you cooking?" Jack shrugged his shoulders in response. "All the same, you're good."r
Celine smiled brightly. It seemed that she wasn't that bad. She had trained back at home, that was something that her mother had insisted that she had to know.r
After breakfast, the group was supposed to meet up with the other young masters and ladies from the capital in a resort in Volant city. The resort's name was Adventure Recreation Resort.r
Although it was in a small city as compared to Kartu city, the level of technology here was high. The reason behind this being the fact that the resort was located in a place that was full of tourist attraction sites.r
And that was one of the reasons as to why they were going there. They would be staying there for three days before leaving.r
Since there were four of them, with Faith still going on to manage the company in place of Celine, they decided to use the eurocopter. Although the distance between the two cities wasn't that big, it wouldn't hurt if they could get there faster.r
When they were on the roof of the garage, the two girls, Wendy and Angy looked at each other, fighting spirit could be seen in their eyes. Currently, it was a competition of who was going to sit next to Jack on the eurocopter.r
They were just about to start discussing on who would, when they saw that Jack actually sat next to Gabriel. In other words, the girls wouldn't have the chance to be close to him during the trip.r
All the same, they simply pouted before they got into the eurocopter. After that, the helo flew towards Volant city. Through air, they could get there after about half an hour. Had they actually used cars, it Would take them at least four hours.r
Thirty minutes later, Gabriel landed on a field of the resort. This was the area that had specifically been prepared for those that came here on their helicopters. The resort was some distance from Volant city. It was located at the center of a forest.r
After alighting, Wendy sent a message to one of the girls to inform her that they had arrived. They were then informed that the group was currently in a basketball court.r
It seemed that they were currently watching a basketball game that was taking place in one of the basketball courts here. It was just coincidental that there was a match that was ongoing here.r
The group of four hurried to the basketball court. It was indoors. But, there was already a considerable crowd that had gathered here. The seats were already almost filled up. Luckily, it was still morning and so, there were a few seats that had yet to be occupied.r
Jack followed the girls who were familiar with the area. Having been texted where to go, Jack and the others headed to one of the corners. There, Jack saw the young masters and ladies that he had seen back in Venture city. Currently, they had already reserved chairs for the four of them.r
When they saw Jack, although they were surprised, it was not by much. The one that had reserved the four seats was a girl that was close to Wendy. She was the one that had told Wendy the location.r
Of course, there was definitely someone who was not happy to see Jack. Collins gazed at Jack coldly. All the same, he didn't express it as he simply smiled and welcomed Jack.r
Jack already had a bad impression of these young masters. So, he didn't even bother to smile at them. In response to their greetings, he simply nodded.r
Seeing this, although they were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to express their dissatisfaction. He was Wendy's fiancé at the end of the day. If they targeted him and angered Wendy, they would definitely be in trouble.r
But, it was obvious that not all of them were afraid of that. Seeing that Jack didn't give him face, Collins decided in his heart that he was going to make sure that Jack was embarrassed.r
Additionally, he would definitely make sure that he disappeared. After all, he could see that Jack was actually close to the two ladies. Although he had never asked Celine out, he still had her as his target.r
As long as he failed to get Wendy, he would simply change the target to Celine. But all the same, although he wasn't chasing her at the moment, he still wouldn't allow anyone to get close to her.r
Jack obviously noticed Collin's malicious gaze on him. He simply thought that this guy was angry that he hadn't greeted him back. But all the same, he didn't care at all. If this guy dared to play any tricks on him, he would definitely make sure that he paid for it.r
Jack was definitely not a fan of basketball. But, he could only watch the game with the girls. He had promised to accompany them. So, it would definitely not be good if he simply left, right?r
So, during this whole time, Jack didn't pay much attention to what was happening. He was currently thinking about what he was supposed to do. He had to plan for the future. Although he could still receive companies from the system, that didn't mean that he wouldn't develop the ones that were under his name.r
Taking out his old phone, he checked the balance in his account.r
[Flyers Bank Savings Account Balance is $16,935,074,216.]r
It could be said that he was almost halfway to the fifty billion dollars target. But, that was something that could be achieved as long as five companies under him managed to be monopolies in the market.r
Thinking for a moment, he decided that he was going to start with the security company. Since the company had the advantage in terms of helicopters, the body strengthening pills and what's more, he had a subordinate there, Ayush, who could take care of the company, he would focus on it.r
So, that was going to be his first one. After getting back to Kartu city, he would have to make sure that the merging was completed as fast as possible. Additionally, they had to start expanding.r
As for the branches that had almost been ignored in small cities like inchoate, they would have to be revived. No matter the city, whether big or small, he would make sure that he dominated it. After all, how could he be a monopoly if he didn't actually have influence in each city?r
…..r
While Jack and the others were inside the court, watching the game or contemplating on what to do, Brenda was inside a room in the same Adventure Recreation Resort.r
Here, she was looking at a middle aged man in front of her. This was the meeting place that they had agreed to meet. The man in front of her was a mercenary. According to the information that she had received from her mother, Marion, this guy could do the dirty work that she had.r
"Can you kill him within a week?" Brenda asked.r
The man face had a smile at this moment as he looked at the information that he had been given. The information was all about Jack. r
"Young miss, there's no problem for me to deal with him at all. I have done more tricky ones. To deal with such a small brat will be a piece of cake. But, you have to fulfill your end of the deal." The man said.r
"Worry not, I keep my promises." Brenda smiled in response.r
After the man left, Brenda got onto her feet and headed to the window of her room. She opened the curtain to let the sun hit her face.r
As she was taking a deep breathe, her movements immediately froze as she gazed down with a hint of surprise. Her lips curled into a malicious smile as she muttered, "Looks like you are unlucky. It seems that a week is not needed anymore. You can simply disappear today."r
At the same time, she gazed at the silver haired youth who seemed to be getting out of the lodging area. Unique silver hair was shining in the morning sun.r
