Investigate Further

Jack didn't take Ben's threat seriously at all. There was law in the country. And, if he dared to play underhanded tricks on him, he won't let him off at all. After all, how could he just remain silent when someone was attacking him?

This time, he had targeted Ben himself. But, if he dared to continue trying to look for trouble with him, he would ensure that he would take his backing down. In just a month, as long as he put in some effort, he was sure that he would reach that level soon.

Currently, he can earn at least a hundred thousand dollars from the stores a day. If it was multiplied, he would end up earning more than ten million dollars a day.

As he thought to this point, he decided to start a security company next. It won't be a small one at all. It would have to be big. If possible, he wanted to make sure that he bought one that was already running.

The reason for this was considering the fact that, hiring a new management team and trying to enter the market would be somehow difficult. So, it would be better to get one that was already running.

Furthermore, if there was a problem with the management, he would just make a few changes and that would be it.

He nodded to himself before turning his attention to the group. William and the others nodded and followed him towards the management office. They each had a smile on their faces, ready to receive their own 'small' incomes.

The moment that they arrived in the management office, they found that Ben had just finished making a call. He hang up and stared at them. Without another word, he turned around and left.

Jack raised a brow but he did nothing. After all, what could he do in this kind of situation? So, he immediately entered the office.

Peter saw them coming inside. He smiled at Jack. Even today, although the car that Jack had driven was inferior to the one before, he had seen that his performance was better than previous time that he was here.

"Mr. Jack, any considerations?" Peter asked as he motioned for Jack to sit. There were only two chairs inside Peter's office. So, Jack sat and the other one was left for the lady, Kelly to sit on it.

"That's my decision for now. But, maybe I may change my mind in the future." Jack shook his head. He would just buy this Off-track Racers in the future if he wanted to participate in racing.

As for why he wasn't being direct and saying that he won't be participating in the racing as their genius? It was obvious that a person wasn't supposed to burn bridges. He might need Peter's help in the future after all.

"Okay then, I'll wait for that future." Peter smiled bitterly as he shook his head. After a moment, he began typing on the computer on his desk.

"So, the accounts remain the same?" He asked with his head still lowered.

"Yes," everyone replied in unison. Peter was asking if the money was going to be transferred into the same accounts as the ones that they had used to pay for registration.

After about a minute, Jack felt the phone in his pocket vibrate. Even without taking it out, he knew the reason behind the vibration as he had already received a system prompt.

[You've earned $10.2M. Multiplier applied. You've received $1.02B.]

Now, his account had enough money for him to solidify the grocery department as well as get a good security company. He already knew why he received the two hundred thousand. It was from the Off-track Racers, reward for the winner.

William and the other fifteen received their own five hundred thousand dollars one by one. Their expressions right now was like that of a small child that had received what he wanted.

After confirming that everything was in position, they left the office.

Jack drove back to the Prince and Princess Palace. It was already half past eleven at night. The road was almost empty so, the Bugatti Veyron buzzed through the roads at high speeds.

Of course he made sure to be careful on the road. Although it was almost midnight, he knew that the roads wouldn't be empty. As for the traffic police, he made sure to avoid them by using the less congested roads.

But, his speed on the road wasn't the same as the one during the race. Here, he maintained a lower speed of about 130mph. He slowed down whenever necessary.

After getting to the palace, he took a shower before sleeping. After all, there was much work for him to do the following day.

…

The following morning, he woke up at around seven. He went into the gym and did a few warm-up exercises before taking a shower and preparing himself a sumptuous breakfast.

By the time that he got out of the mansion, it was already three minutes past nine. The sun wasn't that hot yet. But, he was in no mood to enjoy it.

He took out his phone and made a call. After waiting for a few breaths, the call connected and a male voice came through, "Good morning Mr. Jack."

"Morning Chris. Has everything been arranged?" Jack asked as he headed towards the Bentley Continental GT.

"Yes, Mr. Jack. Everything is in position. We're only awaiting for your arrival." Chris replied.

"That's good. I'll be there by ten forty. Oh by the way, prepare an extra seat as there's someone else coming with me." Jack said a few more words before hanging up.

After getting into the Bentley Continental GT, he was just about to drive away when he thought of something. The Flyers Bank manager. He was sure that this guy had some connections. So, he was sure that he could help him in getting a good security company for him to buy.

At the thought of this, he decided that he would go to the bank after he was done with the issue of the grocery department.

Without wasting more time, he immediately drove towards the Glaze hotel.

….

Happy residential area, Dante family Main mansion, inside a study room.

Kevin looked at the report in his hands with a frown on his face. He had been holding this file for over five minutes now. But, his gaze remained lingering on a single page.

On this page, there was an image that Jack would surely find it familiar, it was his image. Below the portrait, there were a few details about him.

None of them was wrong. It stated his full names, his age, his educational background, when he arrived here in Inchoate city and a few more pieces of information about him.

Kevin's gaze was currently fixated on Jack's full name. Jackson Alfonso. They didn't manage to find the details of where he was born and what his family background was.

"Uncle Ruben, are you sure that this young man is not from Crystal city's Alfonso family?" Kevin asked as he looked at Ruben who was standing not far from his position.

Kevin himself was a middle aged man with a few strands of gray hair on his head. Though, one had to be keen to be able to see them.

"Actually, I'm not too sure about it myself. According to what I know, any member of Alfonso family has a good position in the family business. But Jack on the other hand, doesn't hold any position." Ruben stated with a frown on his old face.

After a moment of pause, he continued, "But, for him to be able to pay for that building, this implies that he has money. But, we know money alone isn't enough to protect someone. But, what makes me a little worried is the fact that according to the information, he seemed to be familiar with the young lady of Gravy family."

The moment that Kevin heard these words, his facial expression tightened for a moment. Then, he let out a sigh as he placed the file on the desk.

He rubbed his forehead for a moment as he sighed again. After a moment, he looked at Ruben and said, "It seems that we'll have to be careful. Since the building is gone, let's change the plan if necessary. But, we have to make sure that another plan is ready within a month at most."

"As for that Jack, continue investigating his movements. If possible, check his accounts. I want to know his depths." Kevin instructed.

"Yes master." Ruben replied before leaving the study room.

…..

Back to Jack.

After more than twenty minutes of driving, he arrived in front of the Glaze hotel. He parked the car in the underground parking lot and decided to wait for Celine on the first floor.

Unexpectedly, the moment that he arrived there, he found that Celine was there together with Faith. He raised his brows. He had thought that they would be meeting at ten. Unexpectedly, he found that she was here already.

Well, not that it was bad. It would be good if he could finish all the projects at hand as fast as possible. After all, why would he want to delay his development?

"Good morning." The moment that he got to the two ladies, Jack greeted like a gentleman that he was.

"Morning." Celine and Faith replied. Now that they had gotten acquainted to each other, there were no more standoffs like the previous times that they had met.

Jack couldn't help but be impressed by Celine's beauty. This time, her black hair was tied into a ponytail. Her face had a shallow layer of make-up.

The dress that she was wearing this time was a short sleeved green dress that matched the color of her eyes. This dress reached below her knees.

Jack could only appreciate the beauty of this lady in this outfit. As, although it was an official dress, it still accentuated her features.

"I thought that you were going to pick me up at ten?" Celine asked amusedly.

"I had to get here earlier just in case there would be traffic." Jack replied.

"Can we go now?" Celine asked as she stood up from the couch.

"Well, are the both of you going? If so, we'll have to get another car as mine can only carry a single passenger." Jack stated.
