Chapter 224 - First Mistake

Chapter 224 - First Mistake

Seeing Aaron's arrival brought Jack to his senses, his uneasiness became even stronger and he felt that the project he was offering to Mr. Matthew Moretz was doomed to fail.

"It's okay Aaron, come on in. Let me introduce you to Mr. Jackson Muller, a Swiss businessman who is opening a new branch of his company in London. I think you two must be at the same age?" Said Mr. Matthew Moretz slowly as he approached Aaron who was standing in front of the door with Daniel.

Aaron, who knew that Jack was already in the room, pretended he didn't have any clue about the meeting. He kept acting like an innocent man. He slowly turned his head towards Jack who was sitting across the table staring at him without blinking.

"Ahhh… Jackson Patrick Muller, I actually know him, Uncle. Why did you just mention Jackson Muller earlier, Uncle? I'm confused. We already know each other," Aaron replied with a big smile while nodding his head slowly towards Jack.

"Really? Wow, such a coincidence then. I'm happy to hear that. I think you better wait in my room. I have to finish this meeting with Mr. Muller first," said Matthew Moretz softly to Aaron with a smile.

"Okay, Uncle, see you later Jack," Aaron answered his uncle's question quickly while waving his hand at Jack to which Jack responded by giving a small nod.

After Aaron left them, the meeting resumed. Jack, who had lost his passion to win over Mr. Moretz to invest his money in the Muller Finance International company, remained silent. He let his subordinates answer questions from Matthew Moretz's staff, even though he was usually very active when he was presenting in an office to conduct meetings like this. However, after seeing the relationship between Aaron and Matthew Moretz that looked closer than just business partners, his enthusiasm for getting this project immediately disappeared. It turned out that his gut feeling about the meeting that he felt right after he stepped foot in Matthew Moretz's office was true, his uneasiness was proven to be reality.

Jack only started talking when his part arrived, he showed some important files on the developments of Muller Finance International in London over the last few months to Matthew Moretz. Jack hoped that by presenting their growth he could persuade Matthew Moretz to invest in Muller Finance International.

Shortly after Mr. Moretz read the file Jack had given to him, he closed it slowly, a smile blossoming on his face.

"I'm very happy that you came to my office, Mr. Muller, it's just that at this time I can't make a decision on the results of our meeting right away. I need time to discuss this with my people. we need to know how much capital I should invest in your company. The reason is because I truly believe in the potential of Muller Finance International. I shouldn't play around when investing for such a great company. I hope you understand why I need time to learn everything. Is it okay if I need a little time, Mr. Muller?" Asked Matthew Moretz quietly to Jack with a friendly smile on his face.

"Of course, Sir. We would let you study everything before making any decision. I'm glad that you are even willing to consider this offer of cooperation, I'm looking forward to hearing the good news from you, Mr. Moretz," replied Jack quickly with enthusiasm.

"Hahaha, you are such a great young CEO. You have high enthusiasm. Okay then, I will hand over this file to my subordinates for us to discuss further. After that, I will contact you myself, Mr Muller," said Matthew Moretz back while reaching his hand towards Jack.

Jack immediately greeted Matthew Moretz's hand and gripped it tightly. "I understand, Sir, I'm looking forward to our great collaboration."

Shortly after the meeting ended, Matthew Moretz politely escorted Jack and his men to the elevator. They finally said goodbye to each other after shaking hands for the last time. Matthew Moretz resumed his work while Jack and his men got into the elevator to go to the first floor. While in the elevator, Jack's other team members looked happy because Matthew Moretz seemed interested in their proposal. Sadly, Jack didn't feel the same way. In his mind, if a potential business partner asked for time to reconsider everything, it meant that his offer of cooperation would be rejected. For Jack, asking for additional time to reconsider meant a polite or subtle rejection.

"You guys better go back to the office now, I need to go somewhere," Jack said quietly as he reached the first floor of Matthew Moretz's office.

Erick, who noticed there was something wrong with Jack, approached him and asked, "Do you need me to accompany you, Sir?"

"No, Erick, I need some time by myself. Besides, I want to meet someone after this," replied Jack quickly, rejecting Erick.

"Alright then, Sir, we'll head straight back to the office then," Erick slowly answered Jack's words.

Jack nodded his head slowly in response to Erick's words. Soon, Erick, Alice and the rest of the team got into the car leaving Jack alone in the parking area of ??Matthew Moretz's luxury office. Jack then got into his car after his team's car was out of sight. He then drove his car at full speed leaving the office of the richest man in England.

"Fuck, you're looking for trouble with me Aaron!! I'm sure you purposely entered the meeting room earlier. You must have planned all of this from the beginning," Jack cursed Aaron's actions that he had done in the meeting room of Matthew Moretz's company. He was sure Aaron must have been planning to disturb his meeting with Matthew Moretz.

"You are such a coward, Aaron. You don't dare to face me directly. You used a cheap trick to beat me, but you're wrong Aaron. I won't give up just because of this cheap plan of yours. I can make my company thrive here. With or without Matthew Even Moretz, I will be able to make Muller Finance International even bigger," said Jack again emotionally. The way Aaron tried to interrupt his business made him very angry.

By driving even faster, Jack went to the Ganke Inc Production office to meet Anne. He thought that only Anne could calm him down this time. Jack drove his car at its highest speed even when the road was very slippery due to snow. He was used to driving in bad weather like this when he was still in Switzerland.

After thirty minutes Jack finally arrived in front of Leon's office, he parked his car across the street because he wanted to take a walk to go to Leon's office to meet Anne. But just as he was about to unbuckle his seatbelt, Jack suddenly saw Anne walking with a man. Both of them looked close to each other. The unfamiliar man was seen holding an umbrella for Anne while grabbing her shoulder. Seeing that scene made Jack's emotions get even worse.

He started his car again and wanted to leave Leon's office area, but suddenly he had other ideas. Jack quickly turned the wheel, he then entered into the underground parking of Leon's office. Because of the heavy snowfall, many of Leon's employees chose to take cars to the office. As a result, the underground parking area was almost full at this time. Luckily, Jack found an empty parking lot in the corner and the place was a little hidden.

After finding a comfortable place to park, Jack then called Anne. He asked Anne to come down to meet him in the underground parking area.

At first, Anne didn't believe that Jack was in Leon's office, but when Jack gave a photo of himself in the car, Anne finally believed it. She then followed Jack's instructions to look for him in the underground parking area without any suspicion. Anne's smile widened when she saw Jack's car not far from where she was. Without suspecting anything, Anne walked over to Jack's car.

"Come in," Jack said quietly to Anne while still calling her through the phone.

"Okay," answered Anne briefly. She then hung up the call from Jack because she had managed to find Jack.

Anne slowly got into Jack's car and asked. "What happened? Why did you come all of a sudden, Jack?"

Instead of answering questions from Anne, Jack grabbed Anne's body and brought her closer toward him. He made her sit on top of her. Since Anne had such a small body, it was very easy for Jack to do that. In a minute, Anne was sitting on Jack's lap in the position where both of her legs were already on the right and left side of Jack's legs.

"Jack, what are you..."

Brettt

Without saying a single word, Jack grabbed Anne's dress in one go. Suddenly, Anne's upper body was exposed.

"Jack… ahhh"
