Chapter 24
“Did you all hear that? The janitor thinks he owns the car.” He tried to downplay the whole situation since Edward didn't claim he owns the car; it might be that the real owner is not among them.“Hey janitor, I'm not interested in knowing your name because it won't add to my paycheck.” he chimed, his voice laced with sarcasm.His friend joined. “Bet he’d add he owns the production company, what makes him think so? Does he think he’s Charlie wade? That's a fantasy.”As the mockery and laughter died down Wong Lee cleared his throat and stepped forward his expression with a mix of sympathy and concern.He glanced at Jake then addressed the very few people that were in the office.When he realized Wong Lee didn't refute Edwards' claim he stood in shock, his mind reeling from the announcement.“You heard Edward, the key to the car is here,” Wong Lee presented it to Louis.He let out an incredulous laugh. “This is some kind of sick joke.”“Well, no one is laughing.”Louis could not bring h

Fear and anger battled within him as he realized the potential consequences of his action.If the owner of the car get back before he could resolve the issue at hand, he would surely be done for, storms of panic began to get hold of Louis' voice as he attempted to regain control of the situation.“You’re delusional, we have two options, there is no backing away from it.” Louis stammered trying to regain his composure. “Now I declare this conversation over.”But Jake stood his ground, his eyes locked with Louise. “No this is not over. I will find the truth and when I do you'll face the consequences of your action.”Louis face paled, cold shiver running down his spine. He had underestimated Jakes determination and position the consequences of their action begin to close in on him and the fear of being exposed consumed him, Outside were numbers of employees waiting to see the outcome of the indoor meeting between Jake Wong and Louis.“I am not letting this slide. I need to reach my clos

The broad-shoulder guy, Louis towered over Jake, his face a mask of anger. “I asked you a question, cat got your tongue?” he growled, creating tension between them.When they squinted their eyes they noticed that people had gathered around them by now instead they turned the table and started speaking ill of Jake with enthusiasm. “Can't you see chauffeurs these days overstep their boundaries with their victim mentality and blame us for their hard life?”“Are you guys done embarrassing yourselves? You’re trying to get a position as extras in the production and Wong brought in for an audition.” Jake pinned them on the spot with his gaze.The boy's eyes lit up as Jake slipped into the geek talk. His composed look only serves to infuriate them, especially Louis as he tugs the fancy cross necklace around his neck. “Extras? Are you kidding me? We are the main lead.”Jake shook his head, he thought they were just youths with their head in the cloud but they went as far as to lie to him, he

The following day Jake woke up in his apartment ready to handle whatever they brought his way. As he walked into the lobby of the movie company he noticed a young woman near the entrance passage of the lounge kicked immediately into a radiant smile. “Good morning sir, welcome to the Silver Planet one and only movie industry, how can I help you?” she smiled bashfully at Jake's overwhelmed trance. “We've decided to name it Blakes Production. How does that sound?”Jake was struck by her demeanour, and within a short period of two days, Wong Lee was not only impressive but was ready to take the bull by the horns.Jake soon exited the passageway to hit the massive door that was the heart of the movie company despite not being in the centre, the craven was designed to act as a starting post for acting activities. With some living quarters for actors in case of nights.“In here.” Wong Lee said. “Edward and I put in the room for workers just ahead of shooting at night. They will sleep over.
Chapter 20
The director feigned understanding towards Jake, raising his eyebrow, “Young master, you're very brilliant, you already know what I was going to do, nothing will hold me back again.”Jake betrayed no surprise at his response, the leverage was too huge to be thrown out. The gathered people hooted with derision. Jake cold stares bored into the director.He thought, the first time doubt crept into the director's mind, Despite holding the phone to his ear Jake was unfazed, he’d met his match, had he not? No, he couldn’t believe that this man was just like the others but a small voice of reason said to end before things got out of hand. As Jake shrugged off the unwanted touch the director searched for something to gain the upper hand. Looking into Jake's eyes he found only quite resolve, his lip twitching but he held back his cynical comment about a threat that unnerved him far more than any raised word could.“You can’t scare me with your icy gaze, except you get on your knees and beg.”
Chapter 19
City's magazine hit frantically on the desk with disdain ready to gnash on the publication.“When was this news published?” the old man asked, banging his hard fist onto the wall.“About an hour ago sir.” he circled, the director was more than furious at this rate James’ selfish motives ruined his opportunity to make Mike Sheldone his acquaintance, and he held his phone to his ear thinking through everything.“You bastard, you're responsible for this, how dare you make a bet when you know the potential of the young master!” He roared over the phone at James.By this time James was already hiding gnashing his nails, while reading the publication, he was scared Jake would do anything within his power to find him and keep the end of the bargain.“Don't tell him where I am, I will be the mock dog of Silver planet.”“I have lost a potential actor to that young master all because I trusted you, you will fall before my downfall.” he hissed frantically killing the call with anger while throwi
