Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

"She died a few years ago."r

"What?! Are you serious?!" Johnathan jumped onto his feet and asked incredulously. His voice was filled with disbelief and shock.r

Celine, Wendy and Angy had their mouths open, not knowing what to say. They wanted to console him but at the same time, they were afraid that they would tear the old wound open. In the end, they could only remain silent.r

"She died when I was 15 years old." Jack spoke nonchalantly as if he didn't care about it. But those who were keen in listening, they could tell from his voice that he was sad about this event.r

But all the same, Jack's ego as a man didn't allow him to show any type of weakness in front of women, considering that it was something that had happened for over 4 years now.r

Although it was something that made him sad, it had already been a while and he had gotten accustomed to it.r

Jonathan was silent for a long while as he stared blankly, he himself failed to believe what he had just heard. Just a few seconds ago, he was completely ecstatic, thinking that he would make his mother happy after giving her information about his aunt's whereabouts.r

But now, he was sure that as long as his mother received information that her sister was dead, she would be aggrieved. Jonathan wasn't ready to make her bear that kind of burden as of the moment.r

She was already under great pressure knowing that her son was facing threats of life every moment that he was out. Additionally, he had left home for over a year now and his mother hadn't seen him for a long time. Just thinking about going back with bad news, he couldn't help but feel his heart ache for her.r

It was only after a long period of time had passed that he turned his gaze towards Jack. He wondered what Jack was feeling at the moment, considering the fact that he was the direct victim.r

Seeing the atmosphere was getting somber, Jack decided to shift the topic. "So, what kind of people are trying attacking you?"r

Upon noticing that Jack didn't want to talk about the matter at the moment, Jonathan went with the flow. "Well, I'm pretty sure that they are from my second uncle's side. The incident where your mother left home had ruined most of his plans. In other words, he was the one who had cooperated with some of mum's uncles and aunts to orchestrate the plan of marrying her and her sister to a scumbag."r

"As for why I'm sure about it, it is simply because my investigation so far has pointed towards him. Furthermore, he also has a son, who is currently 22 years old and is also running for the position of the family head." Jonathan concluded.r

In response to his words, Jack simply raised his brows, clearly not interested in matter of the fight between the heirs for the position of the family head.r

"You are also part of the Jesda family, do you want to come back and try taking over the position of the family head?" Jonathan asked.r

"Aren't you worried that I will take the position away from you?" Jack jokingly asked in return.r

"Hehe, I am confident that you cannot defeat me." Jonathan snickered in reply.r

"Anyway, I'm not interested in such things. Moreover, I'm sure that the moment that I'll step in the compound, there will be some people who will definitely be against me. And what I know is that, there will be many of them trying to push me out. So I think I better live my life the way it is, rather than getting involved." Jack waved his hand in dismissal.r

Wendy, Angy and Celine were surprised that Jack had no interest in the inheritance of hundreds of billions worth of assets. Although when compared to the other provinces in the country, their families were indeed good.r

But when they went back to the capital, if they was supposed to be compared to other families, they were nothing special. Their assets were only worth a few billions of dollars.r

And now Jack was refusing to take the opportunity to try obtaining the hundreds of billions of dollars worth of assets. But thinking about how Johnathan mentioned that he was facing the danger of assassination from time to time, they thought that it would be better if he didn't go.r

The group chatted with each other. It was only during this chat that Jack knew why Wendy had confused him to be the one that had saved her. It turned out that Johnathan was the one that had saved her back then.r

In any case, now that the situation was clear, Jack hoped that Wendy would finally stop bugging him with the issue of the two of them getting engaged.r

"Do you want to go back with me to see my mother?" Johnathan asked.r

"Not now. But I'm sure that I can do that by next year. As for now, I don't think that I can do that." Jack shook his head in reply. He still had to be wealthier and stronger than the Jesda family. Only then would he have the qualifications to face those that had made things hard for his mother.r

Although she was already dead, he was not willing to let some of the debts unpaid. They dared to make some stupid plans using his mother for their own benefits.r

Since she couldn't repay them, he would do that in her place. Furthermore, the payment would have to be greater than the pain that they had caused her.rplease visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

As for his father, he too had to get punished. After all, his mother had even parted with her sister just so that she could be with him. In the end, he didn't even marry her, he threw her to a corner and completely ignored her existence.r

His mother could have gone back to the Jesda family, but in the end, she stayed at the Alfonso family, a very tiny family in the eyes of the Jesda family, just because she loved him. She grieved from time to time, and Jack had caught her from again and again.r

But all the same, she didn't say a word. She never told him to hate his father. She didn't do that even after suffering under the hands of the Alfonso family.r

In the end, she died. As for the cause of her death, she had gotten sick all of a sudden and died in two months. There were completely no signs of what disease she was suffering from.r

The time that they had gone to the hospital, the doctor simply stated that she wasn't sick at all. But, his mother had lost strength in her body and at the end of it, she died.r

As he thought of this, Jack suddenly thought of something that made him furious. But, he didn't let his anger explode. Instead, he held it in as he tried analyzing the situation.r

It seemed that he had to look into the matter concerning his mother's death. The two wives of his 'father' were always scheming against her. And Brenda had taken after her mother.r

So, Jack thought that there might be something fishy about her death. They were in crystal city, so, it was normal that they could manipulate a doctor to tell them that there was nothing wrong with his mother's health.r

As for the reason as to why they always tried making things hard for him and his mother, to this date, Jack had no clue. But, it seemed that he would have to look into the matter, after all, it wasn't that simple.r

As Jack was lost in his thoughts, he was interrupted by Johnathan. "Need my help to know who wanted you dead?"r

Jack shook his head in response, "No need at all. I can handle it." After that, he decided to make a call. "Denali, can you come to venture city by tomorrow?"r

"Okay boss." Denali replied.r

Although he knew that she was busy, he still thought that it wouldn't hurt if she could leave some of the tasks to Ayush and Tracy. Working together with Maxwell, they would be able to merge the companies.r

pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ And if there were any changes that had to be made, they could do it later on. So, Jack had to solve his curiosity at the moment.r

Another reason why he called Denali to come over was because he wanted to have time to finish the system task. Otherwise, there was going to be a punishment.r

And if there was going to be an assassin, he could handle that guy easily. After all, he wasn't a professional combatant for nothing.r

"Okay then. If you think that there's something that you can't handle, just let me know." Johnathan shrugged in response. Since they had chatted for a while now, they had gotten familiar to each other.r

Jack's personality and Johnathan's weren't opposing to each other. So, they hit it off. Added to the fact that they were cousins, although the relationship between them wasn't that deep yet, at least they would do something for the other because of their mothers.r

"I will be going back to the resort for now. I still have something to do there. And just like you, if there's anything that you need, as long as I can do it, I will." Jack stated as he got to his feet, ready to leave.r

"I'll find you at the resort then." Johnathan nodded.r

Celine got up and followed Jack out of the room. Wendy on the other hand, wasn't sure if she was supposed to remain to talk to Johnathan, or if she was supposed to follow Jack.r

During the chat, she came to realize that she had been watching the two of them together. In other words, sometimes, parts of the traits and character traits that she had found belonged to Jack, while others were Johnathan's.r

In the end, since Johnathan was hiding and had hid his information, she had gotten the information on Jack, though it was only shallow. In the end, even her grandfather had gotten information on Jack and that was the exact reason as to why the had gone to the Alfonso family.r

"Wendy, can you stay behind? I would like to have a simple chat with you." Johnathan's voice reached her ears, making her finally decide to stay.r

Since the two had things to talk about, Angy decided to go after Jack and Celine. They were going to the resort at the end of the day. So, she wasn't worried that Wendy would get lost. She was an adult after all.r
