Everyone is in the ga right now, but I have another place I want to go. I think I have to et Jason and have so talk because of what I just heard in the interview, so I go to the GC (GoldenCurtain) after I send an email to Ivonna just to let her know.
I'm inside the GC building and I'm walking toward the receptionist. She looks at and she smiles.
"Welco, Mister Trevor. What can I help you today?"
I smile and look at her.
"Is Mister Jason in the building?"
The receptionist looks at the computer and then she looks at .
"Unfortunately, the chairman is currently having a eting outside, but he should be back in 15 minutes for another eting. Would you like to notify the chairman that you are here, Mister Trevor?"
I shake my head.
"Oh, no it's okay. It's not that important."
I'm tapping my fingers on the counter while the receptionist is looking at while smiling.
"Uhh, can you give a call when Mister Jason is free?"
The receptionist nods.
"Of course, Mister Trevor. We do have your number, is this still your number?"
I'm listening to her telling my own phone number then I nod.
"Yeah, that's my number."
The receptionist nods.
"Then we will give you a call when the chairman is free."
I nod.
"Thank you."
The receptionist nods and smiles.
"Have a good day, Mister Trevor."
I'm playing with my phone and on my way out, and when I lift my head to see the exit, I see a familiar face and I imdiately turn around. I see Axel and I don't think this is a public place, so I think there's a reason why he's here. I keep playing on my phone while trying to eavesdropping his conversation with the receptionist.
"Can I et with Mister Jason Floyd?"
The receptionist replies.
"Excuse , have you made an appointnt with the chairman? Can I ask you your na?"
Axel says,
"No, but it's sothing important, and can you tell when he's free?"
The receptionist replies.
"I'm so sorry, but you can't make a sudden appointnt with the chairman without making an appointnt 3 days before the eting."
Axel clicks his tongue.
"Alright, when can I see him?"
The receptionist is humming.
"Do you want to make an appointnt?"
Axel sighs.
"Of course! What do you think I'm doing here?!"
People are looking at him and just shaking their heads. I look at the receptionist and she just smiles while nodding with understanding.
"Okay, let make a call to his assistant a minute..."
The receptionist looks at Axel.
"Unfortunately, the chairman's schedule is already full this week, if you want to make an appointnt with the chairman, it will be Tuesday next week at 10 A.M. if Mister wants that."
Axel sighs.
"Jesus f*cking christ... never mind that..."
Axel hurriedly leaves the building and I'm just chuckling while looking at him getting frustrated. I look at the receptionist and when our eyes t I give her a thumbs-up, she chuckles and just shakes her head. Not long after Axel left the building, Jason enters the building while he's untightening his tie with his assistant walking behind him.
I raise my eyebrows because I thought he won't be coming back in 30 minutes, and when he's about to walk into the hallway, the receptionist stands up calls him. Jason turns around and raises his eyebrows while tilting his head. The receptionist hurriedly walks toward him and then she's pointing at . Jason is surprised when he sees and he imdiately waves his hand telling to co at him.
Jason imdiately offers his hand for a handshake and I grab his hand while his other hand is patting my shoulder.
"Trevor, it's been a while, how are you?"
I smile and nod.
"I'm doing fine. I heard you're quite busy, so I guess I will let you be and make an appointnt for later?"
Jason scoffs while waving his hand.
"No need! Just follow to my office."
Jason looks at the receptionist and smiles.
"Thank you for letting know, Veronica, you can go back now."
Veronica bows.
"Yes, Mister chairman."
Jason looks at and tilts his head toward the lift.
"Let's go."
I'm inside his office and I'm sitting on the sofa in front of him. He's removing his tie and enjoying his hot cappuccino while his assistant is giving him the docunts for him to sign. Jason is looking at them both like a lost child and I have no idea why I'm here because they both look quite busy right now.
Jason is done signing the docunts and his assistant leaves the room. Jason leans on the sofa while crossing his legs.
"So, what can I do for you?"
I raise my eyebrows.
"It's actually not that important. So, you should have heard what is going on right now in the ga, right? The community really wants to be punished for what I did, and I want to talk about it with you."
Jason is slurping his cappuccino while nodding with understanding.
"Ahh! That. You don't have to worry because we are not planning on giving you any punishnt and the developers agreed with it because thanks to you, everything is under control again. Do you know what we have been through when the ga is doing everything on its own?! It's scary! This is the first ti I have ever seen sothing like this, and we were quite overwheld by it not because of just that but also because the ga itself is expanding as we speak! One of our guys told us about what's going on in the ga and we all now know what's really happening in the ga, so when we heard that you killed the Emperor and destroyed his army, we were all sighing with relief. So we are literally saved by your decision back there."
I'm humming with understanding.
"Can I ask you a favor? Like can you at least give so punishnt? Because I don't want the people to stop playing because of getting so kind of special treatnt."
Jason is crossing his arms and looking at for quite a while.
"Well, we can find a proper punishnt for you if that's what you want. Even if you do get special treatnt from us, they're still playing the ga and it keeps increasing day by day. I do agree with your request because even if it didn't really affect us, it does affect the players and we do still have to give them what they want to show that we are really serious about giving everyone the satisfaction of playing the ga."
I nod in agreent, but Jason is rubbing his bottom lip with his thumb.
"I will be honest with you, Trevor. We are in big trouble."
I raise my eyebrows.
"Big trouble? Why?"
Jason raises his eyebrows and tilts his head.
"As I said earlier that we are currently overwheld by the ga that progressing on its own. We have no idea what is the reason why it's expanding when the players are still quite busy in the first chapter of the ga. We are don't have enough resources and our guys who trying to adapt to the ga are having quite a problem doing so. We tried by recruiting a new team but they ended up having the sa problem like what the older teams are having."
I furrow my forehead.
"Do you want to help you with that?"
Jason chuckles and shakes his head.
"I wish I could, but we made a deal with Becker that we are not going to involve you in this and he specifically said that he wants you to just play the ga and not take care of the ga. We are out of options..."
I'm humming with understanding, and then I have an idea but I don't know if it's going to work. I tell Jason that I have a solution about this matter, so I grab my phone from my pocket and open the app. Sev appears on the screen and Jason is looking at my phone while pointing at it with disbelief.
"What... How?!"
Sev looks at Jason while smiling.
"Good afternoon, Mister Chairman."
Jason is looking at Sev and back and forth and still can't believe what he's seeing right now. I smile and put my hands on the table.
"It's a long story, but it's for another ti."
I look at Sev.
"Sev, can you ask him if it's okay to tell Jason about the truth? Just tell him that we are having a big problem and we need him."
Sev goes quiet for a second and then she nods.
"He said that it is okay to tell him, but said that only him can know about this."
I nod with understanding.
"Thank you..."
I look at Jason and raise my eyebrows.
"Jason, Becker is still alive."
