Chapter 98 News

"Yes, I've already moved in" Leslie nodded.

"Get down."

Coming up to the boy's height, Leslie looked him straight in the eyes.

Smiling, Christian reaches up to the woman's face and kisses her forehead "Sweet dreams Leslie, I'll see you tomorrow."

"..." Nodding, Leslie got up and went to her room as she smiled softly at the boy's back.

Arriving in his room, Christian looked at his mother who was already lying down and half-naked as usual, quietly watching TV.

Removing clothes when entering, Christian is left in his boxer shorts and speaks "Couldn't sleep without me?"

Putting the cell phone aside, Eva smiles and speaks "How would I sleep without my pillow?"

"You'll have to wait, I have to take a shower."

Smiling with amusement, Eva nods.

Smiling, Christian grabs a pair of panda pajamas and walks to the bathroom, then takes a quick shower and comes out already dressed.

Stretching out his arms, Christian sighed contentedly and lay down next to his mother, looking directly into her face as he hugged her.

Without taking his eyes off her for minutes, Christian couldn't stand his emotions anymore and bit her shoulder, feeling again that somehow he had to vent his happiness for this little moment.

Looking down at the gently biting child, Eva just smiled "And I'm the weird one."

Stopping biting, Christian purses his lips and speaks "This is completely normal."

"In what world?"

"In mine"

"Understandable" Eva nodded seriously, then went back to watching TV.

Without taking his eyes off his mother's face, Christian purses his lips and leans back on her shoulder as he sighs.

"*Sigh*"

Blinking for a few seconds, Christian purses his lips again and leans closer to his mother.

"*Sigh*"

Still having no answers, Christian places his legs over his mother's waist and rests his head on her breasts.

"*Sigh*"

"..."

Having no response again, Christian frowns slightly and lays down completely on top of the woman, then rolls over and ends up face down on her breasts.

"*Sigh*"

Rolling her eyes, Eva speaks "What's wrong with you?"

"*Sigh*"

With a wry smile, Eva hugs the boy and squeezes him against her body "Would you tell me my cute little boy what's wrong with you?"

"I don't know, you tell me"

"Not again please, just tell me what's wrong" With a horrified expression, Eva remembered the number of times she ended up with a headache because of the child's constant 'I don't know, you tell me'.

"Nothing, I'm perfectly fine" Resting his head quietly on his personal pillows, Christian refused to look at his mother and spoke calmly.

"Christian..."

"Hehe~" Smiling after a few seconds, Christian turned and looked directly at his mother's face, still resting his head on her breasts "Just kidding~"

"*Sigh*" Looking down at the boy with a vacant stare, Eva nodded.

"Mom."

"Yes?"

"Give me a kiss" Smiling, Christian spoke while pursing his lips.

Smiling, Eva stretched her neck and kissed the boy's lips quickly, then stroked the boy's hair and spoke "Did something good happen to you? Are you cheerful?"

"I don't know, I'm just happy" Smiling softly, Christian looks with warm eyes at the woman in front of him "Did I tell you how much I love you?"

"At least 5 times a day"

"Did I tell you how beautiful you are?"

"That's 3 times today"

"..." Pursing his lips, Christian smiles softly and speaks "I'm very happy... so happy that many times I can't believe it."

"..."

"It's a very beautiful and complicated feeling... to feel somehow so happy... I thought it wasn't possible" Looking at his mother's smiling face, Christian moves a little and kisses her cheek "Having you as my mother, being part of this family... it's the best thing that ever happened to me."

Smiling softly, Eva hugs the boy's head and speaks softly "I love it when you get sentimental~"

Feeling his mother's heart beating peacefully, Christian closed his eyes and sighed contentedly, slowly falling asleep from the comfort.

...

May 18, 2012.

Slowly opening his eyes, Christian blinked groggily and yawned, then turned his gaze to see the woman already awake beneath him.

"Hello mother~" Smiling, Christian whispered.

Kissing the boy's forehead, Eva smiled "Good morning."

"How did you sleep-"

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

Raising his eyebrows, Christian pauses his words and looks at the door, then sniffs and asks "What's up Leslie?"

"You have a call from Sara."

Sighing, Christian stands up and walks to the door, then opens it and smiles "Did you sleep well?"

"..." Nodding, Leslie stretches out the cell phone, then turns and stands still by the door.

Shaking his head, Christian dials Sara's number and enters the room "Aunt Sara, is something wrong?"

"Hi Christian, yes, it's regarding your trial and some updates with your investments."

"What's going on?"

"We'll do a jury trial instead of opting for a judge only trial, we'll opt for the plan I told you about the other day when we had lunch."

Remembering the woman's words, Christian recalled the plan 'We'll make out that the man tried to attack me with a facade of pity... I only defended myself while he tried to grab a gun.'

'With the jury we'll be able to opt for feelings.'

"I understand, just follow through on what you think is most feasible."

"Good, now regarding your investments... as we said yesterday, we were able to reach an agreement and we bought Twitch, today the legal transfer was made and your uncle Jayden hired the same creators to continue with the platform, you have to send him the design you want, ideally a mockup of the page"

"He will have it ready by 6 pm at the latest."

"That would be perfect, now regarding your books... we got a call from Columbia Pictures and they want to buy the right to your book 'The Girl in the Striped Pajamas'"

"Oh... interesting" Raising his eyebrows, Christian continued "How much are they offering?"

"Ten million dollars and 13% of what they gross."

"Ten million dollars... I got more money selling the books... but I accepted."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes...my books getting into movies will give me more recognition, this will attract more readers... what did my publisher say?"

"They already talked to Columbia, they are waiting for your decision."

"Well, just accept and make the deal, it's a good price, although today that money is almost nothing for me... you know what? Take that money and donate it to charities for orphan children in Germany, tell Uncle Jayden to run the research and I don't want it to fall to some rich guy's foundation that just steals money...ideally local charities"

"Fine, I'll tell him to do the research and make the donation, do you want to go public?"

"Only if the charities want it, don't hold them to anything."

"I'll fill you in... now next, you asked me to patent 'Ethereum' and it's done... also completed the purchase of farmland properties in California and Colorado.... Ignite is patented and logo you made as well, we also started the construction of the special structure for that type of cultivation, so when they start talking about its legalization, we can start cultivating that same day and have everything ready for the day it is approved..."

"..."

"Your uncle Jayden told me that the demolition process in your building is going without hitches or problems... the construction of the new building was already approved and out of that you would have no legal problems... oh yes, Netflix will present a project to record their own series, in a few days are the votes and I want your opinion"

"Accept, that series will give a great future to the company."

"I'll keep that in mind... I'm going to see what I miss..... ah, yes, Uber initiated the vote among its investors to launch Uber Eats, it was presented as your idea and if accepted, you will have 1% more shares as a gift, with that you would have 25% only beaten by the current CEO with 30% and Camp with 29%."

"Just vote in favor, that will give a big boost."

"I never thought otherwise... now regarding Tesla... they are slowly recovering, but they are asking for more money from shareholders, the number of shares will increase and they would lower your percentage from 13.5% to 11.2%... but if you pay 15 million more, your shares go up to 14%, what do you say?"

"Is that legal?"

"Completely legal, it was decided by a majority vote."

"Okay, accept...who is the person attending as my proxy on those votes?"

"Jayden"

"Tell him to try to talk to Musk, I want to invest in Space X, ask him if he's interested in one more investor on her ship."

"Noted... that would be all for now, Starbucks is seen by your mom and she's up to date on everything if you need to know anything."

"Okay... Aunt Sara, do you know how Instagram and Tik tok is going?"

"I knew something was slipping my mind, those apps are doing well, Georgia spoke to us and said we would need some more money to look at some bigger offices, about 2 million"

"Do you accept his request?"

"Yes, just like you said, we didn't hinder her to work freely, she looks very enthusiastic, she even said it was easier than she expected and everything should be ready in 3 months at the most instead of 5"

"Nice."

"Now the last thing... it's regarding the lawsuit and the security company... the lawsuit already started against the nanny company, we are studying and preparing a solid case, we have at least 80% certainty in taking over $100 million from them... as for the security, sign your name and the extra protection will arrive in 3 days along with the new vehicles"

"Bleed that company in the lawsuit, I want everything to be as public as possible and for them to suffer colossal losses" With an empty tone, Christian spoke.

"It was always our intention" Sara replied calmly.

"That would be all?"

"I think so... apart from all that we have as usual multiple requests for interviews, it's your decision if you accept."

"Oh..." Pursing his lips, Christian sighed and spoke "I agreed to an interview with the most reliable and serious media, I don't want to be treated like a clown or a circus animal"

"So you'll finally accept one?"

"Yes... but they have to come to my house, as you know, I can't go out."

"We'll give them that condition, I'll let you know in a few hours which one we choose, I'll hang up on you for now that I have more work"

"Thanks for keeping me up to date, bye" Cutting the call, Christian yawned and looked at his mother "It's so exhausting being successful."

Rolling her eyes, Eva quickly grabbed the boy in her arms and pulled him down on the bed "No one likes arrogant people."

"Do you?"

"I love them."

"I'm the most arrogant person in existence."

"That's why I love arrogance" Eva smiled showing her teeth, then gently biting the boy's shoulder.

"What are you doing? You're weird."

"It's the most normal thing in my world"

"That ideology is mine, it's copyrighted."

"I use my right as a mother and own your ideology."

"Will you share it with me?"

"I will think about it"

"I will sue you"

"I'll lock you in the panic room and you won't get to trial."

"Do you accept my surrender?"

"Only in exchange for a kiss"

"It's too high a price, I can't afford it."

"Peace was never an option"

"..." Looking at each other for a few seconds, Christian smiles and kisses his mother's cheek "You convinced me."

"..." Smiling softly, Eva strokes the boy's silky hair, then looks at him and asks "Will you agree to an interview?"

"Yes... I can't always run away from them, right now they don't harass me because I hardly go out and I'm only 12 years old, but in a few years I won't be able to avoid them and I prefer not to hide anything from the beginning, at least the data that if I can reveal like my life... whenever the media discover something on their own, they overexploit it and make everything controversial or scandalous"

"What do you plan to say?" Curious, Eva asks.

Smiling, Christian kisses his mother's nipple "For example how much I like these cuties".

"You're weird" Eva remarked.

"I have hair that seems to glow and violet eyes, everything about me is strange."

"..."

"I'll also say how much I love this woman in my arms" Kissing the woman's collarbone, Christian smiles "How much it makes me happy and how much it cost me to make you bathe every day, stinky."

"Then I'll tell them you're a boy who still sleeps with his mother and breastfeeds, plus I'll tell them you wet the bed"

"I don't wet the bed"

"They don't know that"

"I'll tell them it's a lie"

"They'll think you're just embarrassed and confirm that what I said is real."

"..." Pursing his lips, Christian smiled and massaged his mother's chest reassuringly "You're terrifying."

"But you like it?"

"I love it."

Smiling at each other, Christian just sighed contentedly, then looked at his mother and asked "Do you know what time it is?

"Nine o'clock in the morning."

"..." Without stopping massaging and squeezing Eva's breasts, Christian only nodded slightly, gently watching his mother's face.

After a few minutes of peace, Christian bites his lips and speaks "Mother... you never told me about your family."
