Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

Chapter 178 Anne's Grievances

Jack drove back to Cardinals Supreme Hotel. The moment that he got there, he received a system prompt that had been delayed for a while now.r

[You've earned $500M. Multiplier applied. You receive $50B.]r

[First Income. As a reward, you gain a single chance to choose a skill of your own liking.]r

And as Jack continued heading into the hotel, he felt the phone in his pocket vibrate. Immediately, he could tell that he had received a message from the bank indicating that he had received the money.r

But, what made Jack frown a little was the fact that the payment had been delayed a lot. Wasn't it just transferring $50M? What took the baldy so long for him to complete the transfer?r

Riiing~ Riiing~ Riiing~r

His phone rang. The caller was Johnathan. "Hey, what's up?" Jack received the call and asked casually.r

"What do you mean by what's up? Aren't you supposed to be thanking me for helping you make sure that you received your money?" Johnathan asked in a displeased tone.r

"You delayed for a few hours. So, there's no way that I'm going to say thank you for that." Jack replied calmly.r

"You! Humph, let's see if next time I'll help you deal with such things." Johnathan snorted.r

"What help? You were simply trying to dodge the responsibility." Jack replied.r

"What responsibility?" Johnathan pretended not to know what Jack was talking about.r

"Worry not. The next time that we meet, I'll remind you." Jack stated.r

"What the hell! No matter what, the next time that we meet, I'll definitely be stronger than you are." Johnathan refuted.r

"I never talked about fighting. I simply said that I would remind you of something that you forgot." Jack stated nonchalantly.r

"You…." Johnathan was left speechless once again. In the end, he couldn't say anything and hang up. The reason for calling was to confirm if Jack had received the money. Since Jack complained about the delay, it could already be seen that he had already received his money.r

Jack shook his head helplessly and entered the suite. He found that Denali was present and she was currently busy with something on her laptop.r

Seeing Jack coming in, Denali got up and welcomed him. "Master, should I order food for you or should I prepare one for you?" Denali asked considerately.r

"There's no need. I already ate." Jack shook his head and refused. He had already ate when he was with Celine. So, there was no need for him to disturb Denali.r

"How are things going with the lot that I left you with?" Jack asked.r

"They all completed the procedures without causing any problems. They said that they were ready to start working." Denali replied.r

"That's good then. You should be able to organize with Tracy and Ayush for them to be assigned the special duties that require their muscles." Jack nodded before instructing.r

"Yes master." Denali nodded her head once again.r

Jack then went to his room. The first thing that he did was to start preparing the body strengthening solution as he had promised. There were still over 220 people that had to receive the solution.r

Furthermore, Jack also wanted to prepare some of the solution for Celine. And if possible, perhaps her family could also benefit from it.r

Since he was doing things in a large scale, it took him slightly over an hour to prepare enough solution for the over two hundred people. But, the only problem was that there were a little less small glass bottles to store the solution.r

In the end, Jack could only resort to storing the solution in the beaker. He wasn't ready to go out and buy the small bottles at the moment. So, it could only wait for the following day.r

Now that this was out of the way, Jack focused on what he wanted to do at the moment. Opening the envelope to unveil the secrets that were hiding inside.r

Jack took the envelope that was in the cabinet next to his bed. Looking at the envelope, Jack took a deep breath. Then, with resolution clear in his eyes, he opened the seal on the envelope before taking out what was contained in the inside it.r

There were six sheets of A4 papers. And in the middle of these papers, there was another small envelope. Although curious, Jack still set it aside so that he could read the contents of the documents that he had taken out of the envelope.r

The words that were written on the two sheets of A4 papers were not printed, but handwritten. And, Jack could still recognize his mother's handwriting although it had already been four years since she passed away.r

Then, Jack began reading the contents of the letter.r

'My dear son, now that you are reading this, I'm sure that something has happened to me already. Well, I hope that you haven't given up on yourself just because you lost me.r

I know that you are a firm person and wouldn't easily lose your will by something as simple as losing me. After all, life and death are some of the stages of life that every human has to undergo.r

All the same, I simply hope that you are doing fine. And, since you have opened the envelope, it's obvious that you are planning to have someone else in your life.r

If you are in the Alfonso family, I can tell that things aren't going too well for you. And if I can say something that I would like to say to you when I was alive, that would be that, it's better for you to develop outside Alfonso family.r

Although it's true that they are providing your basic needs, it's not worth it your future. And as your mother, I definitely can't allow your future to be ruined.r

And if you have already left, I believe that your life is not easy if you have nobody to support you. In any case, I left something for you in the small envelope in between the two letters. I hope that this can help you build a foundation for yourself.r

Now, to another thing that I should talk about. I know that you might be curious about my origin. After all, during all these years, you only knew a single name of mine, Anne, but you never knew about my surname.r

So, let me reveal to you some of the truths that I have been hiding from you all these years. My full names are Anne Jesda. I'm part of the Jesda family, one of the reclusive families that are found in the capital of Azima, Kartu city.r

It's rich and has a net worth of hundreds of billions. I'm the daughter of the second son of the head of the Jesda family. My father wasn't lucky enough to inherit the seat of the family head and could only be second to my first uncle, who took after my grandfather.r

In my father's line, there are four of us. We have two older brothers. As for me, I have a twin sister who's called Anita….'r

The letter went on to introduce the Jesda family. And just like Johnathan had told him, Jack found that the information was the same. In fact, the contents here were deeper than what Johnathan had told him.r

'I met your father Dalton back when I was in university. He had come to visit our university with his classmates for a project and he was in his senior year while I was a sophomore.r

We interacted and after some time, we fell in love and planned to be together. He promised to marry me in the future.r

After he graduated, he disappeared for a year and only appeared when I was in my final year. He told me that he had been busy with the family matters and that was the reason as to why he couldn't pay me a visit.r

Although I was curious about what it was that had held him, I didn't ask as he didn't seem like he was going to tell me.r

We continued dating and after I graduated, he told me that he was ready to marry me. By this time, he already knew about my background as it was no secret in school that I was from a prominent background.r

I had once told him that it would be hard for him to be accepted by my family because of his background. But, he was too determined that he ignored the fact that in front of the Jesda family, even if he was determined to marry me, he wouldn't be able to survive as long as they decided to eliminate him.r

After I graduated, when I went back home, one of my uncle and my brother cooperated to find a way to marry me off to someone else. My sister Anita had already found herself a man that was from a good background and he was accepted into the family.r

But for me, things were different. They wouldn't accept Dalton because of his background and neither would I agree to marry the person that they had organized for me.r

In the end, the only solution I could come up with was to run away from home and live with Dalton. I made sure to hide my tracks with the help of my sister Anita.r

Dalton welcomed me and treated me well. I got pregnant before we got married. When I asked him about the marriage, he told me that he wanted to talk to my family about it.r

And when he heard that I had actually run away from home to be with him, for some reason, I found that he began treating me coldly. The love that he always showered me with had almost disappeared.r

It was also later that I found that he actually had two wives already. And, the bomb in my heart came when he told me that he wasn't going to marry me. But because he got me pregnant, he would take me in as a mistress.r

Although I was heartbroken, since I didn't want to get married by the scumbag that was arranged for me back at home, I had no choice but to stay with Dalton as his mistress.r

And after your birth, I began encountering a lot of trouble in the family. Dalton's two wives didn't like me at all. In the end, they caused me to suffer a lot especially after I gave birth to you.r

Then, something that caused me a lot of pain was, when I found out that Dalton dated me and planned to marry me because he simply wanted to have the connections with the Jesda family.r

But, since I had run away, I was useless. So, I was cast away since I was no longer important.r
