The news didn't disappoint him. His thin lips twisted in a smile. He was willing to let them go if they gave up the company but Anna and Jack deliberately forced him to a tight corner every time so that he couldn't help but retaliate. Ping! He received a message from Irwin. It had actually been sent some hours ago but because his phone was on flight mode in order not to be disturbed, he didn't receive it until now. [How is it boss?] [Good. You did a good job] It was around 2pm in Philadelphia and Irwin wasn't too occupied with work so he quickly replied. [Boss, the Jetti's would go bankrupt at this point. We barely managed to keep them from sinking in deep waters and now that I've withdrawn the resources that managed to make them afloat...] Jed's eyes narrowed. [Are you worrying about them?] Even though Jed was miles away, Irwin felt a feeling of chill when he read the message. His back stiffened and he hurriedly explained. If the young master misunderstood his opinion, he mig

"You...!"Erin couldn't find words to rebut him so she just acted without thinking, rushed up to him and slapped him.Pah!The crisp sound brought her back to reality. She looked at her hands and took a few steps back in horror.Although she was scared, she hid it and pointed at him. "I am at least a few years older than you. You should learn how to talk to your elders with respect.""Do you know even before I graduated from university my dream has been to work in one of the biggest companies in Philadelphia? I won't let anyone even a pigheaded, foolish, young master like you ruin that for me."Having said this, she turned around and hurried to leave. Jack smirked darkly, wiping off the drop of blood from his lips while wincing slightly.He stood up and caught up with her with just some large strides."Ah!"Erin shrieked as he caught the hand she had placed on the knob and pulled her back.A click sound indicated he locked the door and Erin trembled."You... What are you trying to do?

Jed itched his head with a smile which made Zayn misunderstand that he was feeling awkward."Yes, I am."Jed's eyes filled with admiration. Seeing his sparkling eyes, Zayn asked, "Do you want to venture into stocks? Do you need some pointers? I could spare some time and put you through."Jed smiled and shook his head. Zayn must have misunderstood his expression just now. He was only awed because he was getting to meet the legends of stocks one after the other.First was Lord of Stocks and now Lord Z.Zayn obviously didn't know he was the newbie trader, J.J, whose name got hung up in the hall of fame recently, shocking and causing envy in the stock market.However Jed didn't have time to explain because the host voice reverberated in the place."This is amazing!""This is incredible!""It's almost as if Cyber Warriors are playing with rage. They defeated their opponents thoroughly within a few minutes, not even giving them a chance to fight back.""The captain personally defeated three

"Eric, are you alright? Can you handle this yourself?" Ben spoke before Jed could stop him. Screech!The car came to a halt. Eric's silence filled the car with an oppressive air. Ben was startled. He was used to Eric being jovial and has never really seen this type of scary Eric before.His mother's words must have hurt him."I'll handle it," Eric spoke through gritted teeth and got out of the car. Jed gave the chauffeur signal to drive off even though Ben was still worried.There was nothing they could do as of this point as it had now gotten to a family matter and wouldn't be good for outsiders to meddle in it.They didn't hear anything from Eric even the next day, they had to go to school alone. Students who were used to seeing them walk as a trio quickly noticed Eric's absence.But they were too occupied with the upcoming college festival to care about Eric's absence.Jed found out later that it was a complete waste of time to have even come to school as there were no academic ac

"May I have your attention please!" The host who was a final year student called out again and the students gathered around, dazzling beautifully.The host held up a small notepad and smiled. "I will now announce the results of the contest's polling units. As we all know, the polls have ended and closed on the school's forum."The students nodded in agreement. They had realized they couldn't vote anymore earlier."In case you missed it, the contests included polling units for the college beauty queen, college hottest hunk, perfect college couple and college admirable scholar."The students cheered, happily waiting for the announcement of the results."And we have all been given a fair chance to nominate our favorites and vote for them," The host continued."Just say the results already!" An inpatient student yelled, eliciting laughter from others."Alright, first on my list is the post of the college beauty queen," he flipped his notepad. "On my list, our top three with the highest vot
