Jack had just ended the call when Celine approached him curiously. With an aggrieved expression on her face, she asked, "Have already gotten acquainted with people here that they have already began making calls to ask you out for a deal? Why don't you tell me what kind of deal it is?"

Jack could not help but look at Celine with a helpless expression on his face. He himself didn't understand why those guys would get his number, call him, only to advertise their products or services to him.

Anyway, he still responded as he knew that Celine was just playing around. "Just a meticulous deal that is going to be of great importance in the future. Too bad, I can get whatever deal it is that the are going to offer without giving them anything."

"Huh? You believe in your capabilities that much?" Celine asked as she leaned closer to Jack, reducing the gap that existed between the two of the to mere few inches.

"Do you want to try that out?" Jack asked with a smirk on his face.

Although Celine was blushing a little, that was it. She was not willing to retreat at this moment. Additionally, she could take this chance to just rest her mind after studying an entire book about craftsmanship.

"Mmmh, show me…" Celine responded. But, she had not even finished what she was saying when she was stunned by what happened next.

Taking the chance that Celine was so close to him, Jack closed the gap between the two of them, immediately connecting the lips that were only a few inches apart from each other.

Although Celine was startled, she did not have the chance of retreating. She was trying to process what was going on when suddenly, Jack pulled her, making her sit on his lap. Immediately after that, the kiss was deepened.

The kiss lasted for a few seconds, before Jack finally retreated. He then looked at the dazed Celine and asked with a smile, "Do you believe that I have some capabilities? If you think that this is not enough, I can continue further than that…"

As Jack said these words, he began moving his hands. But, the moment that his hand landed on Celine's thigh, she finally came back to her senses. She slapped away Jack's hand before she hurriedly stood up, her entire face red from shame.

At this moment, Denali was present. And other than her, there was even a customer, a middle-aged lady who was looking at the two of them with a weird expression on her face.

"Don't you know where we are now? How can you behave so badly?" Celine whispered at Jack, her eyes moving from side to side, obviously afraid that someone was going to say something about what had happened a few seconds ago.

"What badly? That is just natural. Moreover, you are the one that wanted to prove myself. So, why are you looking flustered now?" Jack responded, not caring about the gaze that he was receiving. In any case, Celine was his fiancée, so, he didn't find anything weird about kissing her in public.

"Humph!" Celine snorted but she did not refute to what he had said. She just turned around, heading towards the resting room, trying to make sure that her heart calmed down a little.

Jack had nothing to say about that episode. So, he went ahead and began focusing on the second book that he was studying for the day. He found that the second volume was more advanced, a level higher than the one that he had read previously.

Still, since he had already read the previous volume, it was not that difficult for him to be able to understand what was written in the book. He believed that currently, all that he was lacking was the practical experience before he was considered as a beginner craftsman.

A few minutes later, Jack wanted to continue with what he was doing when he was interrupted once again by a call from the communication device that was on his wrist.

He frowned a little, wondering if it was the same group from the whatever advertisement company that was trying to make a call despite the fact that he had already hang up a few times already.

He looked at the screen, and he was surprised when he realized that the one that was making a call at this moment was actually Samantha. He wondered what was going on for her to call, rather than just coming back to the store.

He wondered if the reason behind the call might be related to the advertisement company, or could it be that the Butterfly organization had decided to make their moves on Samantha after a few days of lying low.

"What's up Samantha? Is there something wrong?" Jack asked the moment that he received the call.

"Yes. There is a group of people that is coming after us. They are trying to ask for information about you. I think that they want to invite you to join their organization." Samantha responded.

Jack on the other hand was not surprised when something like this happened. Anyway, this was to be expected as the commotion that the information about him and Celine reaching the superhuman level at their current age was definitely going to be explosive.

That was something that Jack was expecting. But, he was not intending to do anything about that. For that reason, he had already began thinking about what he was going to do once these organizations came to invite him over.

He wanted to just use this chance that was going to be provided to him to get the information about his mother. Other than that, there was also the chance of expanding. If he managed to get something important from them, then with the system, he would be able to get something even better.

It was just that, the system had already destroyed this plan considering that the system claimed that the gifts that he was going to receive were not hoping to be affect by the hundred times income multiplier effect.

For that reason, he had to look for a way that he was going to use on order to be able to get the whatever belonging of the stronghold that the system had mentioned.

"Then lead them here. There should be no problem meeting up with them considering that they will not give up on this matter, no matter what." Jack responded after thinking the matter through.

This was a chance that those organizations were not willing to miss. But, Jack also knew that they were going to try and make sure that everything was done secretly, without attracting the attention of the other organizations.

But, of this information was released, there was definitely going to be a big fight, either directly or indirectly in order to make sure that he joined them.

"Okay. I'll be driving over then." Samantha responded after realizing that what Jack had said was the truth. After all, she had been trying to escape from the pursuit, but not did not seem like the other party had the intention of letting her go at all.

So, now that she had received permission from Jack, she did not hesitate to drive towards the store. Although there was a stage two superhuman and a stage three superhuman in the group that wanted to get in touch with Jack, she was not afraid that he was going to be at a disadvantage.

….

Not long after Jack had ended the call, there was a commotion that came from out of the store. He did not hesitate and decided to go out of the store, accompanied by Celine who had finally regained her composure.

When they got out of the store, the found that Samantha and Ivy were just getting out of the car at this moment. Ivy looked a little flustered but at the same time, she was excited about the chase.

They had not even gotten a chance of saying anything to the confused Celine when suddenly, a car that was in the mode of an SUV arrived and stopped next to the group.

Immediately after that, two people with casual clothes stepped out of the car. They were none other than the two superhumans that were in the Force organization.

They had somehow managed to change their clothes during the time that they were going after Samantha. This was clear to tell that they wanted to make sure that whatever it was that they had come over to do was a secret.

"Mr. Silver, why don't we have a talk? It's good to talk face to face as we can easily correct the misunderstandings in the conversation." The stage superhuman stated.

"I do wonder of this advertisement company of yours is sincere really. After all, not only did you use such a method to get to where I am, but, you already possess information about me, bit I know nothing about you." Jack stated as he eyed the two people in front of him.

The lips of the stage two superhuman began twitching after hearing what Jack had said. This was what he was talking about. He could not help but wonder if there was something wrong with Jack's mind or something.

He was just about to say something when the stage superhuman finally spoke.

"We are sorry about that Mr. Silver. Let me introduce ourselves, I'm Smith, and my colleague here is called Watson. We are not from an advertisement company or something like that. Instead, we are from something even bigger than that. We are here to talk to you about something, but it's not suitable to talk here." The man said.

Then before Jack could respond, he continued, "Perhaps you don't mind having a late breakfast with us?"
