《The Revenge Of A Businessman》Chapter 9
Advertisement
I arrived home late last night. I was very tired. I went directly to bed. In the morning when I woke up, I did my morning chores and got ready for the office.
“Hi Jordan”
“Hey!”
“How was the meeting?” Jordan asked.
“Like always boring” I said.
We laughed together. Just then Jacob entered the office and saw us. He went directly to his office without saying anything to us.
“Seems like he’s in a bad mood” I said to Jordan who nodded her head.
“See you later!”
“Yeah,” replied Jordan.
I went to my cabin and made some coffee for me and for Jacob just as he likes to drink some before starting to work. I finished making the coffee. I just hope that he likes it. What’s happening to me? Why do I feel different when I'm with Jacob? Okay! This is not the time to talk about all this. I knocked and Jacob said:
“Come in.”
“I brought you some coffee.”
“Put in on the table and take a seat I have to talk to you.”
I sat on the chair opposite to Jacob.
“Do you have anything important to do this whole month?”
“I don't know I have to check my diary.”
“Can you do it now and let me know.”
“Yeah sure.”
I went back to my cabin. It was strange how Jacob was talking very calmly. I wonder what's wrong. I opened my diary and examined my schedule for the whole month. Just when I was about to go to his cabin, someone opened the door and entered and to my surprise it was HIM! He did not say anything to me just came and sit on my chair. Even then I did not say anything bad to him. I just kept my mouth shut and waited for him to speak.

“So you have anything to do this whole month?” He asked.
“Actually yes I have taken one week off.”
“Can I know why?”
“Personal reasons” I replied.
“Ah I see a week off for your boyfriend!”
“No...” I said/shouted to him.
“I understand!” He continued with a smirk.
Now I was pissed.
“How dare you? I don't care if you are the boss. You enter in my cabin without knocking I did not say anything then you sits on MY chair even then nothing now you are interfering in my life? How could you? And please I'm taking a week off to see my grandma!”
I could not read the expression on his face but I damn sure that he was beyond shocked. Never thought I'll talk to him like this.
“I'm sorry but you will have to cancel your plans.”
“May I ask who are you to tell me this?”
“Well I got a call from Mr. Roy about the project we are doing together and he wants me I mean us to come to England to discuss the project. So you have to come and cancel your plans.”
“What?”
“Cancel your plans when we return I'll let you take two weeks off for whatever reason.”
“And what makes you think that I'll come?”
“Well I'm afraid that you had invested money in this project because of a stupid reason.”
Well I tend to forget about things when I'm with him. I thought.
“What?”
Oops did I say that loud!
“Nothing. I'll come with you. But in return 2 weeks off right?”
“Yeah sure” He was about to got up when I interrupt him.
“When are we leaving?” I asked.
“Actually tonight” he replied.
“What? And I'm being informed now?”
“You won't need to bring anything I already told someone to buy things which you will need.”
“What would that person know about what things I'll need?” I snapped.
“It's a girl and she already bought all the things you will need like clothes, shoes and things.”
“This time I'll make an exception but next time I won't. Got that?”
“Yeah well see you later. And yes we'll go together in my car to the airport. Okay?”
“Okay sir.”
With that he went back to his cabin.

The Ingress Estate
Jonathon Eucole. Soldier. Scholar. Now an Initiate, the dedication without dedication, he finds himself both prisoner and master of an arcane edifice, the Ingress Estate, which can neither be escaped, nor controlled; only diverted, maintained, and pacified. This is a gothic fantasy story, set in a world in which gods and the afterlife are not only real and known, but were both established in living memory of some of the inhabitants after millennia of arcane warfare with the being who constructed the mundane reality the humans occupy. But this isn't the story of those who colonized the afterlife at the cost of their own humanity, but a somewhat more ordinary man, in somewhat extraordinary circumstances. This is also a LitRPG-lite, which means there's a system of sorts, fragments of which can be observed through Jonathon's eyes. Don't expect level-up screens, or statistics, or indeed numbers much at all, beyond those the inhabitants of the world itself apply to understanding their own reality. It pretty much doesn't matter to the story, I mention it so those who don't want to read LitRPG at all can successfully avoid it here. I don't have any particular plan here, just some ideas inherent in the genre. This is a character concept I toyed with some years ago; an old man, bright of mind but weighed down into apathy, both by his past and his responsibilities for a terrible estate that cannot be left without stewardship. Don't expect any kind of overarching plot or story, because that's really not what this is about. Also don't expect much dialogue. Or character development. Or much of anything, really, because I've planned nothing in the way of an actual book, here. Other relevant information, if you've read this far for some reason: The MC isn't super-powerful to begin with, and probably never will be. He's a veteran with some useful skills, and the insight on how to use them, so can deal with the world's ordinary threats reasonably well, but not too much beyond that. --- Currently on hiatus, as currently the story has a rather poor ratio of effort-to-personal-payoff. I may return to this once I have a clear idea of how to get the stories where I want them. I've started a more standard LitRPG using the same system. But if you like intelligence characters who cleverly min-max their classes, it probably isn't the story for you; it's the story of a rather ordinary guy who winds up in a very similar universe.
