The business world exploded like a nuclear weapon, sending ripples throughout the business world. Rumors swirled, articles flooded financial sites, and every corporate circle buzzed with the name that no one had seen coming. Jack. Just Jack. No last name. No public record. No digital footprint. It was as if he had appeared out of thin air, making a dramatic entrance into a world that lived and died by exposure. And just like Christa had predicted, Kenneth Kellan had already started digging, like a hungry dog, searching for a bone. He was meticulous, resourceful, and ruthless when it came to research. The Kellans were one of the most powerful families in the business world, with deep roots and connections, private investigators on speed dial, and a digital arsenal that could dig into any corner of the world. But this time, they found nothing. Not even a trace.

It was beyond suspicious. Kenneth didn’t say much, but his frustration showed in every line on his face. Each dead end made him

  • The gold phone number

    A wave of shock moved through the room like a gust of cold wind, followed by a moment of quiet disbelief. It didn’t make sense. The shareholders had sat down expecting a boring meeting, maybe another useless update, but now some young man was standing there in a suit that clearly wasn’t from a thrift store, talking like he owned the place. Once the initial confusion passed, their expressions changed. The polite confusion faded, and their faces twisted. Frowns hardened. Jawlines clenched. Mr. Luster, who had always been the first to react when his authority felt threatened, stood slowly. His tone was cold enough to freeze water. “Kid, what’s your name? Do you even know who you’re insulting?” Before Jack could respond, another voice came from the side. Mrs. Eith crossed her legs, arms folded, her tone sharp with that layered smugness only the rich could pull off. “Whoever your daddy is, don’t think he can save you. You’ll regret insulting us today.” Jack stood there unfazed, no matt

  • You're all idiots

    As Jack headed to REC, he stared out through the taxi window, watching the city roll past in a blur of traffic lights, crowded sidewalks, and the occasional billboard flashing like speeding cars. He had already decided that he would buy a car later, something comfortable and quiet, but right now, he could not shake the feeling that he was being stingy. His head told him it was just being careful, that it was smart not to rush into unnecessary expenses, but deep down, he knew part of him just wanted to hold back for now. His mind, though, was calm. That calm came from the certainty that he could not risk his money at this stage. Not until the bigger pieces of the plan were in place. Once he bought the shares from Mr. Chen, the rest would follow through like dominoes falling in perfect sequence.The taxi pulled up in front of the building. The glass doors reflected the evening light, and the guards outside practically stood straighter the second they saw him. Their expressions carried s

  • Pick a ride (part 2)

    The dealership stood there like it was some king's palace. Its massive glass walls caught the sunlight sharply, causing the glass to reflect the light and forcing anyone who looked too long to squint. Inside, the floor was polished to a mirror shine, reflecting every footstep, every flicker of shadow. The air carried that weird mix of new leather and overpowering cleaning chemicals. The kind of smell that instantly told you this place wasn’t for just anyone. Every car was spaced out carefully, as if it were fragile museum art, glinting under the harsh showroom lights.Jack stepped inside, feeling the cool blast of air conditioning hit his face, a relief from the sticky summer heat outside. He was dressed in a navy suit, no tie. It was the kind of look that said he cared, but not enough to scream for attention. His shoes had a decent shine, and the watch on his wrist was nice enough, but nothing flashy to brag about. He hadn’t gotten his cash flowing in yet, so now was not the time for

  • Pick a ride (part1)

    Jack was looking up pictures of cars on his new laptop while dressed in his white robe. It was the middle of the day, and he had already finished half a glass of wine without even noticing. The quiet around him felt comforting instead of empty. Whoever said money couldn’t buy happiness had clearly never experienced a life like this. They had never sat in a furnished apartment, shopping for luxury vehicles on a top-tier machine, while drinking wine that didn’t come from the bottom shelf. Jack had never felt this relaxed in his life, not even when he landed his first real job. That kind of joy had been short-lived, full of uncertainty. What he felt now was different. He wasn’t chasing stability anymore. He already had it in the palms of his hand.He was looking for a car to get from one place to another. At the same time, he was selecting something that would represent how far he had come. He didn’t want a vehicle that looked like it belonged to a show-off, but he didn’t want one that f

  • Let's not kid ourselves

    After Jack threw his cards all over the floor, he walked out without looking back. He didn’t care about their reactions anymore. All he had to do now was wait and watch the moment unfold. REC was already starting to fall apart. He would be there when the cracks widened. He would be there to pick up the pieces. Christa’s ultimate plan was working exactly the way they had mapped it out during those late-night calls when no one else was listening. She had planned every move, every leak, and every whisper. Jack simply followed through.The corporation was in panic mode. Stock prices were crashing day after day with no sign of recovery. Internal messages were leaked to the public. Rumors began to spread like wildfire. Whispers turned into articles. Stories turned into headlines. Blogs and newspapers printed whatever they could gather, whether real or fake. It didn’t matter. The narrative was already poisoned. REC was bleeding from the inside, and the world was watching.Winston worked hand

  • Pressure mounting

    Would Jack really spare Amelia and Brent? One was the very person who got him fired without a second thought. The other was someone he had once considered a close and dear friend, someone he had helped rise from rock bottom. Yet when Jack was at his lowest, desperate and humiliated, Brent didn’t lift a finger. Jack had explained everything. He had laid his cards out, told Brent how serious his situation was, how badly he needed even the smallest favor. But Brent just stood there like a statue, unmoved. Not even a hint of sympathy in his eyes. No concern, no decency. It was like Jack no longer existed. The moment he lost his job, both of them had dropped him like a bad habit. As if the months they had spent working together had never happened.Now, here they were, not saying a word, and looking like cowards. Amelia clutched her tablet tighter than she needed to, knuckles pale. Brent looked down, pretending to read an email on his phone that wasn’t even open. But Jack didn’t spare them
