Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

"See? You can't even say the reason behind that. Let me guess, you were giving her the shares so that it would be easy for you to meet her in the future, right?" Jack guessed.r

This time, it wasn't just Baldy, even Johnathan and Celine had the same thought as they looked at Jack. 'Hey, what's up with your imagination? It's so rich!'r

"Jack, this guy was giving her the shares because he was trying to apologize for having some thoughts about her." At this time, Johnathan decided to help the baldy. As long as Jack was made so that he wouldn't begin targeting them, he would be saved from the beating.r

"Is that so?" Jack asked doubtfully. This was the compensation for having some thoughts about Celine?r

"Yes, yes." The baldy nodded hurriedly. Since Jack already knew that he had been having some kind of thoughts towards Celine, he might as well use this chance to apologize.r

"I really didn't know that she was your girl. When I was informed that she was taken, I immediately gave up on her and decided to compensate her by giving her the shares. That's the best that I have and that's what I offered." Baldy explained.r

Jack looked at Celine and asked, "Celine, what do you think? Is the compensation enough? If not, I will have him offer you more."r

Celine who was still in a daze in her own world finally came back to reality and replied hurriedly. "It's enough. It's enough." Although she had been having the intention of having the baldy increase the shares, looking at the way that the baldy was looking at her, she decided to take it as it was.r

Yes, although she knew that the value of the 12% shares in her hands were as big as half of her family's wealth, she wasn't going to give an easy way out for a lecherous person like baldy here.r

But, not sure if she asked for more would press the baldy in a corner that would in turn make him fight with Jack to the death, she decided that this was just enough. In any case, she was going to handover the shares to Jack.r

Her thinking was simple, she had acquired the shares because of her relationship with Jack. Had it been that she was just like how she was before she met Jack, let alone the compensation, perhaps this guy might have acted like Collins and tried getting her by all means possible.r

So, it was only right for her to hand over the shares to Jack. Although she wasn't sure how wealthy Jack was in real sense, at least, she felt that it wouldn't be bad for him to add more wealth to the one that he already had.r

"Since she has agreed, I will leave the things the way they are. I won't pursue the matter as long as you don't dare to have some funny thoughts towards her." Jack said.r

"You don't have to worry at all. I won't dare to even think of thinking about having some thoughts about her." Baldy immediately agreed.r

Although he had lost a lot, he knew that he had saved a lot as well. If Jack decided to attack his business, even the multibillion project that he had gotten might be lost.r

With that out of the way, Jack looked at Celine and said, "Let's go. It's already almost five. We still have a few hours to go around the city."r

Celine nodded her head and went to stand by Jack's side.r

Jack looked at Johnathan and said, "Can you help us finish the procedures? You are going to be here and you have a deal to complete with him."r

"Why should I do that for you when you are going out to enjoy yourself?" Johnathan snorted. He was ready to refuse. He wasn't Jack's subordinate after all.r

"You know, I haven't let you off the hook for letting someone have some ideas about your in-law when she was under your care." Jack stated with a smile.r

"Hehe, don't worry. I'll have all the procedures done for you. The money will be transferred and the shares transfer agreement will be brought for my in-law to sign it." Johnathan chuckled and agreed immediately.r

There was no way that he was going to let Jack beat him up. There was no way that he could escape as Jack could easily as they were inside the locker room.r

But, had he been far from here, he wouldn't have agreed even if Jack said that he would beat him up.r

As for now, since he was already here, he might as well help Jack and Celine handle the procedures. He was going to be here for an hour at least so that he can complete the cooperation with the baldy anyway.r

With the agreement of Johnathan, Jack held Celine's hand and they left the locker room. They still had to spend some time together.r

Seeing Jack leaving, the baldy was about to cry. He had offered all the benefits so that Jack wouldn't know about what happened. In the end, Jack still knew about it and he couldn't take back the benefits that he had offered.r

The benefits had just changed the reason of being given out, from simply to gag the information, to compensation for his acts. What could he do?r

After they got to the parking lot, Jack noticed that Celine was looking at him with a peculiar gaze. Jack could already tell the reason as to why she was looking at him in such a manner.r

So, he turned to look at her and asked, "What? You don't want to be my girl?"r

Celine turned red even more. She nodded before shaking her head only to nod her head. She was muddled at this time as she failed to comprehend what to do here.r

Jack hadn't confessed to her directly that he loved her. Instead, he simply asked if she wanted to be his girl. So, she wasn't sure of it was true that he wanted to be her man or if he was just messing around with her.r

She wasn't sure on what to reply to this. She could nod because it was true that she wanted to have him as her man. But, that wasn't a true answer to Jack's question as that would mean that she wasn't agreeing to Jack's proposal.r

As for shaking her head, she was confirming with him that she agreed. It was only a moment later that she thought that he might misunderstand her so, she nodded.r

Looking at the girl who wasn't sure about how to reply, Jack smiled and pinched her cheeks. "Look at you. You don't even know what to decide on? Well, I'll decide it for you. From today onwards, you are my girl." Jack declared.r

"Aaah! What are you doing?!" Celine cried out in surprise at Jack's actions.r

Before Celine could react, Jack carried her princess style and headed for the car in the distance.r

Since the arena was booked by the two factions for the match, there were not many cars in the parking lot due to the fact that there were only a few people that came here on this day.r

"Worry not. I will carry you back. All you need to do is to show me the direction and I'll take you there. So, you can simply relax and think of where you want us to spend the rest of the day." Jack stated as they headed for the car.r

Celine nodded. Although she was feeling shy at the moment, she really was feeling happy in her heart. For Jack to be this open with her, although he hadn't said that he loved her, what was the need of words when actions spoke louder than words?r

When he arrived in front of the car, Jack opened the door and gently placed Celine inside. Then, he went around and took the driver's seat before driving from the arena.r

Not long after they left the arena, Jack realized that Celine was gazing at him just like how he was looking at her when she was driving. In reply to this, he simply smiled and focused on driving.r

But seeing that she had no intention of telling him where they were heading to, Jack looked at her and asked with a smile, "Am I that handsome?"r

"Yes!" Subconsciously, Celine nodded. It was only after seeing Jack's cheeky smile that she realized that he was actually messing with her. "Humph! I'm not talking to you at all." She snorted and turned to look at the side.r

"Haha, just admit it. My handsomeness has captured your heart, right?" Jack chuckled as he asked proudly.r

Seeing that Celine continued ignoring him, Jack got serious and asked. "So, where are we going to my dear?"r

The moment that Jack asked about where they were going to, Celine had wanted to respond because she had a place in mind. But when she heard him refer to her as his dear, she got happy. So, instead of saying where she was previously having the intention of them spending their time there, she changed her mind.r

"I'll give you the directions!" Celine stated enthusiastically.r

The sudden change surprised Jack. But all the same, he still smiled and followed the direction that she was pointing.r

"Where are you taking us to?" Jack asked as he drove.r

"Just follow the directions and you'll see. This was the place that I wanted to bring you another time. But, I have changed my mind and I'm taking you there now." Celine said mysteriously.r

Since he wanted to know where Celine was enthusiastic to take him to, Jack drove faster. But of course he made sure to follow the traffic rules. It was just that he was overtaking and taking turns in the means that Celine and the other drivers had never seen before.r

Being the first time that she had seen Jack driving this way, Celine was scared. She had never been in a car that moved in such a manner at all.r

"Jack, be careful. We are in a city and there are many cars on the road." Celine warned anxiously.r

"Worry not. Since you are here with me, I obviously won't do something that would risk your life." Jack stated with a smile.r

Seeing Jack's confident smile, Celine's wild heart calmed down. She put a lot of trust in Jack and believed his words. So, in a moment, she went from panicking to enjoying the wild ride, that she even sometimes forgot to tell Jack where to turn.r

About an hour later, the two arrived in front of a lake. This lake was also located towards the outskirts of the city. And, the scenery here was so good, it was a good place for someone to relax.r
