Chapter 451 Jackson Enterprise
The old man shook his head and said, "Young master, it is better if we give up for now. This girl is not simple. We need to make preparations to deal with her. Otherwise, we might end up being the ones that would end up suffering."
"Humph! What is there to plan about? Aren't you a superhuman? How can you not deal with such a girl? Don't tell me that simply because she has a special ability, she is stronger than you!" Derek shouted as he looked at the old man with dissatisfaction.
He was so angry now. After all, he had just found the target that he could marry. In the end, the old man allowed her to leave. Although he was not planning on using force on her, he was planning to make sure that she agreed to a date with him.
But now, all of that was gone. He had to begin following her again, before finally getting a chance to talk to her. But still, there was a chance that he could get to her if he chased after her now. It was just that the old man was still holding him back.
"Young master, I said that girl is not simple. She has already reached the superhuman level and she possesses an incredible ability. It is not simple for a person of her age to reach the superhuman level. That implies that there has to be a strong backing that she has." The old man explained helplessly.
Derek blinked his eyes in confusion. Superhuman level? Why did he not notice that? And, how was it possible that a person that was almost of the same age as him, had already reached the superhuman level?
Looking at Derek's blank expression, the old man sighed. It seemed that this young master was excited that he was not even thinking even after he was beaten up by the other party.
At the same time, the old man could tell that Celine was holding back during the first attack. After all, according to the strength that she demonstrated when he blocked the attack, it was obviously stronger than before.
Previously, he had never expected that Celine had a special ability at all. That was the reason that, by the time that he reacted, Derek had already been blasted into a wall.
Moreover, the old man knew that Celine was still holding back. Although he could guarantee that he could beat her, but, it was going to be a difficult task for him to do that. So, there was no need for him to risk injuries for something as simple as getting Derek to do as he wished.
After a moment of silence, Derek seemed to have understood what was going on. He finally began understanding why the old man had held back despite being a superhuman.
Additionally, it was only now that Derek realized that this was the first time that the old man had prevented him from getting what he wanted.
"Anyway, I want to know where she lives. After that, we'll have to deal with that whatever Jack that she mentioned before. I don't want just anybody near her. If he Insists, I might as well kill him." Derek stated with a cold expression on his face.
The old man on the other hand couldn't help but wonder just how stupid this young master of his was. After all, for a girl of such ability, it was obvious that Celine would not just take anyone as her boyfriend. So, that implied that the other guy must be someone with some ability it background.
In the end, knowing that there was nothing that he could do about it, he decided to remain silent. If there was trouble that he could not handle, he would just use the background that Derek possessed.
....
On the other side, Jack had not been staying idle. Instead, he was doing what he had thought would take him about a week before he managed to stabilize things.
Just as he had planned, he had decided to set up the Jackson Enterprise. This was something that he had been planning for a long time, just during the first moments that he had gotten the system.
And now that he had dominated five industries, he thought that this was the best time to set up the Jackson Enterprise. So, during the past two days, he had already made enough arrangements for that.
He had decided to use Alpha Tower, the one that had been staying idle ever since he had acquired it(chapter 155), as the headquarters of the enterprise.
Due to the influence that he possessed, it was not difficult for him to be able to do things that would have taken a long time in just a few days.
And in the past two days, he had already managed to complete all the requirements. All that was left was the renovation of the tower to match his tastes.
Although it was true that he was about to go to the stronghold and the money from the normal world was no longer of much importance to him, but still, since this was where he had started, he was not willing to give up on everything just like that.
And at this moment, Jack was planning the opening of the Jackson Enterprise together with Johnathan. And, the meeting was being held in the villa that was in serenity residential area.
"What do you mean by making me the manager? Do you think that I want to be a manager for one of your companies? Dream on! I better go and take over the family businesses!" Johnathan snorted angrily.
He couldn't believe that Jack had called him over just to tell him that he wanted him to work as the manager of his company. How ridiculous was that? He was the heir to the Jesda family. How was he supposed to work as a mere manager? Wasn't Jack looking down on him too much?
Although the two of them always quarreled from time to time, that didn't mean that they had a deep grudge against each other. So, he was wondering why it was that Jack was asking him to be a mere manager.
Jack looked at the furious Johnathan with a calm expression on his face. Then, he sighed and said, "That's okay too of you don't want to be the manager of Jackson Enterprise. I'll simply look for someone else to do that."
"Wh-what?" Johnathan was surprised when he heard that. He didn't believe what he had just heard. After all, Jackson Enterprise that Jack had started was something that covered five industries completely.
At the same time, the Jackson Enterprise was going to be involved in other industries as well. There were the health sector, food sector ( completely different from grocery department), and even the cosmetics company that was owned by Katelyn had decided to join the enterprise as a subsidiary company.
Of course, Katelyn was not selling the company. It was just that, she thought that, since Celine was going to be Jack's wife in the future, if the Angel's Prominence joined the enterprise, what difference would it make? After all, Celine was the only child that she had and since she was to be married to Jack, he would still own it.
"Of course it's as I just said. You are going to be the CEO of the Jackson Enterprise. Although I said manager before, there's actually not that much of a difference between a manager and a CEO. But, that's only if you agree. Anyway, you have already decided that you are not going to..." Jack acknowledged what he had just said.
He was about to say that Johnathan had refused anyway when suddenly, Johnathan shot to his feet as he exclaimed, "What nonsense! Whatever I just said a moment ago was nothing but pure nonsense. You shouldn't care about that nonsense, right?"
Although Jack was expecting such a response, well, along the line, but, he had never expected that this guy was going to be this shameless. Anyway, that was just how Johnathan was.
"Are you sure that you will not do 'nonsense' after I hand over the enterprise to you?" Jack asked with squinted eyes as if he was reconsidering his decision.
At this moment, Jack had suddenly changed the situation from being the one who was offering Johnathan the position, to Johnathan being the one that was seeking the position.
But of course, Johnathan was smart enough to realize this. Otherwise, how was he supposed to be given the chance of being the head of the Jesda family?
"What 'nonsense' would I be doing? Anyway, I do believe that I'm the guy that you trust the most and that is why you want me to take over on this role. So, don't you worry, I will not disappoint you in this." Johnathan stated seriously as he got back to his seat.
"Whatever. I'll be leaving with Celine and Denali. There's something that we need to take care of. So, we might be coming back any time soon. So, try to make sure that you don't mess things up for me. Otherwise, when I come back, I will make sure that you pay for making losses for my enterprise." Jack responded.
Johnathan was a little excited about the opportunity that he didn't even care about the 'paying if he messed up' part. Anyway, the wealth and influence of Jackson Enterprise was way higher than the Jesda family in the normal countries.
A while later, Jack and Johnathan talked about the launching of Jackson Enterprise in three days. After the launching, Jack would be ready to leave for the stronghold.
