Hundred Times Income Multiplier System
Chapter 34 Shopping

Kevin couldn't remain calm at all. They had planned to purchase the building for a month now. They were taking things at their own pace while thinking that there would be nobody that would be able to purchase it. After all, even they, the overlords of Inchoate City had to take a certain period of time to collect the current $350M.

It wasn't that they couldn't afford to pay the $700M at once. It was just that, it would affect the cash flow of the Dante Corporation. Such a big corporation needed money. There was no way that they could leave their accounts empty. After all, in the case of emergency, they might fall due to lack of money.

And, the big corporations could easily fall. The reason, with no money, they were sure that, the five families that had been beneath them all this while would surely unite to make sure that they would suffer greatly. In this way, they would either collapse or they would be on the same level as the other five families if they depended on their connections and foundation to survive.

Today, when Frank called, he was present when the butler received the call. So, he had heard what Frank said. And from what he knew, there was no way that Sabrina would ignore them.

So, he felt that something was wrong. That was why he called after a period of time. He wanted to confirm some things and that was the reason as to why he asked Sabrina to let him speak first. It was to make sure that she knew that they were serious about buying the building.

But now, he'd just heard that there was someone that had bought it. "What floor was bought? Who is the one that bought it?" Kevin asked immediately.

"Not floors, Mr Kevin. He bought the whole building at a go and made full payment." Sabrina replied. For some reason, she felt happy bragging about Jack to these rich men of Inchoate City.

"What did you just say? He bought the whole building?! Are you kidding me?! This is no time to joke! Who bought it?" Kevin sent a barrage of words to Sabrina.

And at this moment, she could feel that  he was quite anxious. Well, she wasn't sure of it. But, she replied honestly, "Mr Kevin, you know that I cannot dare to joke with you concerning such a serious matter. The purchase was done today, about an hour ago."

Upon hearing the seriousness in Sabrina's voice, Kevin finally understood that she wasn't joking and that the building had been bought by someone.

Now, more than anything, he wanted to know who bought the building. He then thought to himself, 'Did the five cooperate to buy the building? Or, did they know about my plan?'

As he thought of this, he asked, "Who is the one that bought it? You know that we had come to an agreement but at the end of the day, you still sold it to someone else?"

Sabrina could easily feel the anger in Kevin's voice. Though he was trying to conceal it, there was no way that he could hide something like that. It could already be felt in the voice.

She trembled a little before replying. "It's not that I'm against the Dante family. It's just that, as you know, I look for those that want to buy the building. When he came to purchase the building, you still hadn't made a decision in whether you were going to buy it or not."

She then continued, "Mr Jack came here to look for an office building. In the end, he found the Business Overlord Building and fancied it. Then, he offered to pay for it in full. As you know, I had to accept such a deal."

Kevin was silent for a moment before asking, "Mr Jack, is he the one that bought it?"

Sabrina felt that there was something wrong. But, she couldn't put her finger on it. In the end, she nodded and replied, "Yes, he's the one that bought it."

"Okay, I got it." And with that, Kevin hung up the phone, leaving the uncertain Sabrina standing in her office, unsure of what to do.

…..

Happy residential area. Inside a big and majestic mansion, inside a study room.

Kevin dropped the phone on the table and looked at the old man with white hair beside him and said, "Uncle Ruben, help me investigate who this Jack is. I want to know if any of the five families have a hand in this. And if they are involved, they would have to suffer."

Looking at Kevin's angry and malicious gaze, Ruben sighed and said, "Don't worry about that. I'll be sure to get all information about him. But, what should we do about that building?"

"Find out who's involved in this first. As for the building, we have to get it by all means possible. Either rough or smooth, we cannot afford to lose that building at all." Kevin replied as he sat on the couch that was present in the room.

"Okay," with that, Ruben left the study room, leaving Kevin behind.

….

Jack didn't know that, buying the Business Overlord Building would attract so much attention from the Dante family. Furthermore, it seemed that they wanted to get the building by all means.

But, even if he knew about it, he wouldn't care about it at all. After all, what could they do to him? Nothing! So, what was there to get worried about?

Currently, Jack was preparing himself for the banquet that would be held tomorrow evening. He wasn't sure who was holding the banquet but, he was going to get acquainted to some people so that his development here would be faster.

After looking at his wardrobe for a period of time, he found that there was nothing that he could use in the occasion. All the clothes that he had were casual.

Although he was from Alfonso family, he'd never gone to a banquet that involved the big bosses. But, he still knew that, he had to put on official clothing so that he could show some respect for the one that had organized the banquet.

After thinking things through, he got out of the mansion, got into the Bentley Continental GT and drove towards Delight Mall. In Inchoate City, there were three big malls.

They were the Delight Mall, Pride Mall and finally, Tinko Mall. Amongst the three, Pride Mall could be said to be leading. But, Jack went to Delight Mall because it was closer.

After parking the car alongside the other luxurious cars, he got into the mall under the envious gazes of the boys and infatuated gazes of young beauties.

This time, he didn't go to Taren Designers. After all, they were good in customized clothing and he was looking for ones that were ready. The banquet was tomorrow and there was no time for him to wait for the suit to be completed.

He looked at the clothing brands that were located on the second floor. Finding that none of them matched his taste, he went to the fourth floor where men's brands could be found.

Here, he could see the stores for Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Giorgio Armani, Balenciaga, H&M, Versace, Hermes, Prada and several others.

After thinking, he decided on the one that was closer to him, it was the Louis Vuitton store. This was a top luxury clothing brand.

After entering the store, he was welcomed by an enthusiastic sales lady. "Welcome sir, what type of clothes would you like?"

Jack nodded to himself. As expected of the service of a top brand. Although Jack wasn't wearing anything special, the sales lady didn't look at him in contempt. But, welcomed him well.

"I would like a suit that can be used for a banquet. An official banquet to be precise. I don't know if you can recommend any to me?" Jack asked.

The lady looked at Jack for a moment before replying, "There are several of them that can match you. I think they suit you well. Here, check this one out."

As the lady spoke, she showed Jack a two piece white suit. The suit was made of cotton and thus was quite comfortable as he touched it. After a thought, Jack entered the changing room to test it out.

"Wow!"

When he came out of the changing room, he immediately caught the attention of the ladies that were here with their husbands or boyfriends.

"What a handsome man."

"He sure gives a rich vibe!"

"Get lost you gold digger!"

"Only if my boyfriend was ten percent as handsome, I could have accepted losing ten years of my life."

"What do you mean? Am I not handsome enough?"

"Ah? Humph, of course you're not. Look at your big nose. Look at how your head is shaped like a bean seed. Look at how big your eyes ar-"

"We're done for. You b*tch! Humph, never let me not see your face again!"

"W-what? I'm sorry. I didn't mean it!"

Jack's appearance had caused the infatuation and appreciation to flood towards him from the ladies. But, it had also attracted the envy and hatred from the men whose women were attracted to him.

Jack looked at the mirror and found that, although the suit was good, he found that it was quite tight for him. It didn't seem that much comfortable as the casual clothes that he usually wore.

After thinking things through, he asked, "Do you have suits that are made from cashmere?"

After waiting for a moment and receiving no reply, Jack looked at the sales lady and noticed that she was staring at him in a daze.

He touched his face before looking at his reflection in the mirror. He noticed that there was nothing wrong. Then, he looked at the lady and waved his hand in front of her, "Hello lady, are you there?"

"Ah, oh, I'm sorry sir, I was lost there," the lady blushed as she replied with her head lowered.

"It's okay. Do you have suits made from cashmere?" He repeated the question once again.
