The expression of the two beca funny and sohow weird in that Jack himself wondered if there was sothing strange that he'd just said. 'What's wrong with that look on your faces? Have I not just stated that there's a billion dollars in the card for the operations of the departnt? Why are you looking at in such a way?' Jack thought to himself.
It was only after about a minute when Jack was almost getting tired of holding his hand in the air that the duo ca out of their shock. Of course, the tiredness that Jack felt was simply the impatience, nothing more.
Grace hurriedly stood up on her feet as she received the card with trembling hands. After all, this card contained over $1B in it. This was an amount that she'd never had a chance to get a hold of at once.
Although if the money that had passed through her hands was added, it could reach it, it was different to have all of this amount in her hands at the sa ti.
Her heart trembled a little as she looked at Jack. This guy had not only trusted her by entrusting the entire departnt to her, he was even giving her a billion dollars funds. This in itself made her determined to ensure that the departnt succeeded, just like how Jack wanted.
She gave Jack another bow as she said, "Thank you boss for your trust. I won't fail you." Determination could be felt from her voice. This accompanied by the look in her eyes, Jack knew that she was serious about what she had said.
Although Jack was handing over everything in the departnt to be under her managent, it was not that he trusted her. After all, who could trust another person when they had t in less than an hour?
It was just that he decided to put his faith in her character and Celine's choice. As for Celine, he wasn't sure why he himself trusted Celine although they had only recently t.
But, even if his faith failed him and Grace eloped with all the money, he wasn't worried at all. He would just have to invest another amount of money and at the sa ti, there would be no way that he would let her leave just like that.
In the future, once his connections were big enough, he was sure that he would be able to find her no matter where she was hiding. And then, he would make sure that he punished her. After all, how could he accept soone ssing with him?
As for now, since she thought that he trusted her, he wouldn't change her mind at all. It would be good for her to think that he trusted her so that she could reveal her real character if the present one was a facade.
"No need for that. Just do your work well. And by the way, don't be afraid of spending the money that I've given out. Spend it to ensure that the departnt soars." Jack said.
After seeing that the duo were in agreent, he added, "All the inco that cos from the daily sales, you don't need to send them to . Just reinvest them back into the departnt to support the developnt. All that I'll want to see would be the monthly reports, that's all."
Grace and Chris nodded in unison. They could feel that their boss was quite generous. They were about to leave when Jack stated, "Grace, stay behind first."
Grace nodded before sitting back on the chair. Chris on the other hand left after giving Jack a bow. He felt that Jack had done him a great favor. As a manager, his biggest pride would be to see the business that was under his managent reaching the sky.
Now that he'd gotten a good boss that wasn't afraid of spending, he had already began looking forward to the future where he would be known as a manager of a big brand.
After Chris left, Jack stated, "You'll start with a monthly salary of $150k. When the departnt develops further, you'll get an increase, what do you think?"
Grace wasn't expecting that she would receive such a big salary. After all, according to what she knew, this was just the start in a small city. If the departnt grew further, she surely would have a bigger inco and reputation.
"Thank you boss." For now, Grace could only say these words. But in her heart, she swore that she would ensure that she did her best to make sure that the departnt that she was in charge of reached higher lengths.
"Another thing, there are two of my first employees in yellow street. They are Agnes and Charles. These two, I promised them that I would promoted them. So, they should be in charge of the specific departnt in yellow and alpine streets. But of course, in the future, if their performance is poor, you can do what needs to be done." Jack said.
As for George, after knowing his background, he needed so reconsiderations about what to do when his period of the bet agreent ca to an end.
At first, Grace's expression changed to that of uncertainty. But, when she heard Jack's last statent, her expression eased a lot. She had almost thought that Jack preferred relationships to performance. Turns out that she was thinking too much. So, she nodded in agreent.
"There's a car that I've co with. It's a Bentley Bentayga. There are several of them where I live. They belong to your departnt. So, you can see how they are going to be distributed. Furthermore, there are others that are going to be in charge of the deliveries, cascadia freightliners. The ones that I ordered would be coming within this week…."
After a few more instructions, Jack drafted a contract and they signed before Grace left. Jack had also made sure to inform her that the subordinates of the enterprise would have the bonuses as long as they perford well.
This was a decision that he'd co with to make sure that none of his subordinates decided to give up after seeing that their efforts were not appreciated.
Looking at the ti, it was already more than twenty minutes past ten. So, he decided to go out as Gabriel Wadi was arriving on this specific day.
He still had a trip to make to Venture city. The earlier that he left, the better it would be. So, he took out his phone and contacted pilot Gabriel.
"Hello, Mr Jackson?" An uncertain male voice resounded in his ears from the phone.
"Yes. Pilot Gabriel, I wonder where you're now." Jack asked.
"I'm just about to enter inchoate city." Gabriel replied.
"You're using a taxi or are you driving?" Jack asked again.
"Oh, I'm in a taxi." Gabriel replied, wondering what was wrong.
"Okay then. Tell the driver to take you to Windhill residential area, and bring you to the prince and princess palace. After getting there, you can call ." Jack said.
"Okay then." Gabriel replied.
After the call ended, Jack called the captain of the guards back at the mansion and instructed him that he should let Gabriel in when he arrived there.
After that, he wondered what to do next. After thinking things through, he decided to just go back to the palace and change the clothes that he was wearing. After all, currently, he was only wearing casual clothes.
Since he was going to discuss a business deal, he thought that it wouldn't hurt to wear official clothing. So, he got out of the office and drove the Bentayga towards the palace.
When he arrived, he found that Gabriel had already arrived. In fact, he had just arrived and entered the palace about a minute before Jack arrived. As expected, his phone rang not long after.
"Hello Mr Jackson, I've already arrived." Gabriel said.
"I'll be there in about a minute." Jack replied as he drove the car into the compound.
The mont that he approached the garage, he found that Gabriel was busy staring at the Eurocopter that was on the garage's roof. The mont that he noticed that a car was approaching, he turned his gaze towards it.
Jack alighted after parking the car next to the others. After that, he headed towards Gabriel and shook his hand as he asked, "What do you think about that machine?"
"It looks good. It should be new, right?" Gabriel's eyes when it ca to aircrafts was quite good. He had already noticed that the eurocopter was new. Jack wondered what he would think after seeing that the eurocopter had travelled zero miles.
Jack then led the way to the garage and opened the staircase that led to the roof. Just like on Friday night, the floor shifted as the cars were moved to the side revealing the staircase and the pathway that extended from the ground to the ceiling.
Gabriel was amazed by the level of technology here. This was a level that could be found in the big cities the size of the capital city or in the cities of those giant countries.
After that, the two went up to the roof. After seeing the Eurocopter from such a short distance, Gabriel was even more amazed by it. He could already tell that it was a customized one.
"This eurocopter should be worth at least $150,000,000!" Gabriel exclaid in shock after Jack did the introduction about the eurocopter. Gabriel shouted these words the mont that he heard about Eko and what it could do.
Jack on the other hand was quite surprised that the system had given his such am expensive aircraft. After all, the first ti reward of the stores was only a bike worth about $170,000. But now, this reward was worth more than two Bugatti Veyron sports cars that he had received from the system.
Jack of course tried ignoring Gabriel's fanatic gaze as he looked at the eurocopter. He simply left him there to get familiar with it and went back to the mansion to change into the white suit that was made from cashre.
When he ca back, he found that Gabriel had already gotten familiar with the aircraft with the help of Eko. Furthermore, he had already changed from his casual clothes to his pilot uniform.
After Jack got into the eurocopter, he sat next to Gabriel with the intention of learning from him how to fly a plane.
After a series of buttons that looked like a riddle to Jack, the plane flew into the air as it left the palace grounds.
But, at that mont, Jack noticed sothing strange. He seed to be capable of rembering each and every action and button that Gabriel had taken and pressed.
