Chapter 201 This Prank Won't Work
?
Jack and Celine didn't know what Katelyn was thinking at that moment. But all the same, the three of them chatted for a while longer. It was just like a reunion.
Although Celine was there with her mother and Jack, due to the memories that she had lost, she was discovering some new things that she had completely forgotten about.
And one of them was that her mother wasn't as cold as she always looked during these days. Instead, she was cheerful during the times that Jack's mother was present.
Though, as Celine forgot about Anne, and Anne herself disappeared, Katelyn had no choice but to focus on work so that she could improve the level of her company. But at the long run of it all, she was simply trying to find something that would keep her busy so that she wouldn't start thinking of the distressing things.
But now, although Jack and Celine were younger than her, at least she could be free with them. And so, they talked and laughed for almost another hour before Katelyn decided that it was enough for that moment.
"We still have a lot to handle. We managed to acquire a contract recently and it has a lot of things that need to be taken care of." Katelyn stated as she got to her feet.
Celine's mood immediately plummeted at the mere mention of work. With Jack around, she could at least idle and laugh. But, if she was supposed to start working, things would get boring at the end of it all.
All the same, she knew that Jack might have his own things that he would need to deal with. So, she had no intention of keeping him here to accompany her. At the end of the day, he was a man.
"Okay then aunt. I too still have some things to handle." Jack also rose from the seat that he was on and spoke.
Although Katelyn was going to be his mother-in-law soon, since he and Celine had yet to get engaged, he could as well continue calling her aunt as he used to call her back then.
"What is it that you are doing at the moment?" Katelyn asked curiously. If Jack was having nothing to do at the moment, she was willing to have him here to work in the company.
This was the least that she could do for the friendship that she shared with Anne, now that she was gone.
She also knew about the situation that Jack and Anne were in in the Alfonso family. So, she was willing to give a hand. Although she had offered to help Anne deal with the Alfonso family back then, Anne had refused.
But now that Anne wasn't here anymore, she was willing to deal with the Alfonso family as long as Jack told her to do that. Jack was just like a son to her after all.
"I'm currently running a few businesses. And now, I still have to deal with another issue concerning relocation." Jack replied.
"Okay… But if you have any problems, let me know." Katelyn offered. At the same time, she was thinking, 'He's just like his mother. He won't accept someone helping him that easily.'
At the end of it, Katelyn sighed. She decided that she would look into Jack's background after she got some time. She wanted to make sure that he wasn't having a hard time now that he was alone.
If he was encountering some problems, she would simply help him from the dark. And if the Alfonso family tried playing the tricks on him, she would give them a good warning.
It was just that, at the moment, Katelyn didn't know that Jack was actually rich, even than her Gravy family. As for the Alfonso family, it was a wonder if they existed any more.
Jack nodded his head in response. Since Katelyn wasn't asking about his business, he wasn't going to explain. Though, if she had asked, he would have told her.
But all the same, he believed that since Celine was there, she could tell her mother about him. That was something that he was expecting.
….
As Jack was leaving the Angels' Prominence, Valnaro on the other hand was looking at the reports in his hands with a dark face.
Name: Jackson.
Age: 18
Residence: ???
Net worth: ???
…..
On the document that he was holding, there was a portrait of Jack on it. And then, there was his name, which had no surname. Then, the age. Other than that, everything else there was completely blank.
Although there were some pieces of information that he knew about, like he was the boss of both GVSL and Glaze Hotel, there was no data about his ownership and so on. All that information was hidden even from the top records that were present in the government offices.
Now, if there could be any information on Jack that he could find, that would be the one that was in hardcopy. Anything else, there was absolutely nothing.
Valnaro shook his head as he released a deep sigh. In the end, they couldn't match the experts on Jack's side. They could hide all the information about Jack, even from the military.
"It seems that we will have to look for information about him the old fashioned way." Valnaro stated as he set aside the useless document.
He then looked at Robin who was standing next to him and inquired, "Have those three given out any information?"
"Not really. We are still in the process of getting all the information that we can from them with all means necessary." Robin was already sweating. He knew that Valnaro's mood was not good after finding that he couldn't get any information on Jack.
So, if they didn't get the information from the three that had attacked Jack's hotel, things would definitely turn for the worse.
"Okay, hurry up with that. Another thing, get all the people in the information department to use the normal means to acquire all the information on Jack. They have only two days to do that." Valnaro stood up and stated.
"Yes captain." Robin immediately replied before leaving the room.
Valnaro didn't stay either, he left. He was going to meet with his superiors so that he could inform them about Jack's demand.
….
After leaving Angels' Prominence, Jack contacted Denali and asked her if she could arrange for someone to manage the Alpha Tower. The tower itself had 105 floors.
He was planning to have This building used as the headquarters of the Jackson Enterprise. Although he already had several headquarters for the companies, he wanted this to be where the central management was.
The Business Overlord Building in Inchoate city would be the headquarters of the city. In other words, it could also be referred to as a branch office of the Jackson Enterprise. But, in a city, it was a headquarter for all the other businesses under him.
As for the relocation of the Glaze hotel here in Kartu city, that would be something that he would have to leave to the ones in charge of the hotel management.
Although he could have left things for Denali to take care of, she was already so busy with the work that he had left her with.
'GVSL can be considered to be stable at the moment. Perhaps I can have Ayush come over and start helping with some other things.' Jack thought to himself.
Since he had gotten Ayush, he had only given him the tasks there at the GVSL. Other than that, he had yet to give him any responsibilities to take care of. Not to mention the fact that just like Denali, Ayush was completely loyal to him.
So, Jack decided that he would hand Ayush to Denali. She would organize something for him to do. In this way, the burden that was on her could be reduced.
After he was done with all these arrangements, Jack took the cab and went back to Cardinals Supreme Hotel. He wanted to start preparing the body strengthening solution so that he could deliver them on time.
And although he could have several people prepare it for him, he wasn't planning to give the military a large amount of solution to begin with. He had to make sure that they knew that the production of the body strengthening solution was so 'hard'.
….
While he was preparing the solutions back in his room in the hotel, Johnathan was back in the Jesda residence.
Currently, he was seated on a couch and in front of him was a lady with silver hair and blue eyes. She was beautiful although she was already in her early forties.
"So, why don't you tell me where you went to, Johnathan?" Anita asked as she eyed Johnathan. He had simply disappeared for almost a whole year without any information.
This had made Anita panic because this completely reminded her of what had happened with her sister. Currently, she wasn't willing to have her son going through the same.
After all, she was still facing the pain of losing a sister. And till this day, since she couldn't make contact with Anne, she was regretting her decision to let her leave in the first place.
Although she had two children at the moment, Johnathan was her only son. So, she loved him just like how she loved her daughter.
"Mother, you wouldn't believe what I found when I was out there." Johnathan replied. He had no intention of saying the reason as to why he left in the first place. He knew that this would put a lot of pressure on his mother. So, he tried changing the topic.
Although she knew that he was deliberately changing the topic, Anita waited for him to continue. If he didn't say anything that caught her attention, she would still bring him back to the topic.
"Mom, I found someone that I guess you would really want to meet." Johnathan continued.
"Who is it? Just say it already and stop playing tricks on me." Anita urged.
"Okay, I met cousin." Johnathan stated.
Anita looked at him blankly. Johnathan had several cousins. And, most of them were not close to him. So, she was wondering why he was telling her this.
Seeing his mother's expression, Johnathan immediately knew what she was thinking. He coughed awkwardly and took his phone.
Then, he made a call. He knew that explaining the situation would be hard. So, he decided to throw the burden to someone else.
Anita continued watching, wondering what was going on. Then, Johnathan handed her the phone and said, "You'll understand once the call connects."
Anita waited and a few seconds later, a face appeared on the screen. When she saw the person, she looked at Johnathan and stated, "This prank won't work."
