Chapter 165 To See My Mother Happy 6

Matthew knew that if what Jake said was done he could earn billions with some contracts with cell phone companies or computers as well as with technology patents after all anyone using a technology they developed would have to make a profit share for Matthew's company in the future.

For a $ 320 million company that was close to failing to earn a few billion in the future would be all merit of Jake, so it was together to give a reward, Matthew would have to decide whether it would be cash or stock company.

After all, if he took Jake shares even if he was worth hundreds of millions in the future, he would also encourage Jake to give more councils like this to the company so they could be market leaders after a few years.

Matthew thought he could not hire Jake because he knew Jake wanted to be a pro at basketball, but just as Jake had an investment firm and also helped take care of his mother's restaurant, if he had some company stock he could help Joseph in the future with some ideas.

Matthew thought that if he had a granddaughter he would surely marry Jake to tie him to the family, but Jake is a friend of Joseph and with the company, the stock would already work, he felt he was right because that could also help Jake make more money.

"When we're finishing the camera for sale I'm going to call you to the company so that I can evaluate if the product is good, after all, you gave the idea."

"You can count on me."

Just as they said after talking to Jake, Oliver and Matthew left, after a while before Jake looked for more people to talk to Tiffany had left the other women to talk to him.

"Hi Jake, I was very happy to see this restaurant you prepared for your mother, I'm sure she's very happy about it, now you're also a businessman like me and Clara."

Few people knew that Jake had another company that worked with investments, nor did Anna and Eva know about it so it was normal for Tiffany to think it was Jake's first venture.

As well as Tiffany and Clara no one else knew Jake was planning to run a marathon, Eva knew Jake was training for it, but she knew Jake always liked to run and did not think his son was serious about taking it seriously.

Jake apprehended in his past life that dealing with other people was always better to be humble and try to hide as much as possible what he does, because sometimes even the closest people can end up feeling envious.

Jake's teammates, for example, did not know how much he got from sponsorship, in fact beyond the companies only Eva knew the value correctly, even Emily and the accounting firm did not know these things for sure.

"It's all from my mother and there is nothing of mine here right now, even though it's very successful I do not want my mother's money."

"I know this, I was just playing with you, next year is going to be a busy year for all of us, your last year in high school and our companies will also start investing in new stores and factories, we want to grow in the market in the next years."

"I'm happy for you, I hope your companies can continue to grow in the next few years."

"I expect that too, we might have to do another television commercial for next year, I think your other sponsors will also do that, next year you're going to be very busy."

"It's good to be busy, I rested a lot getting out of the team in those two years, now I do not want that to happen again, I'll also start looking for marathon competitions later this year."

"Are you really going to do this? We support you, but I think you're going to end up wearing too much if you do so many things."

"I want to enjoy trying before I go to university, I have a plan that needs me to run in a marathon to get it right."

Jake had some plans for the next few years, he did not want to run just because he liked it if that was why he did not need to compete, but he had to train first to accomplish those things.

The only marathon competitions he wanted to run were just at the end of the year, if he wanted to run in the next few months when he would be ready he would have to go to another country, and he did not plan to participate in many international marathon competitions.

So he would have more time to train until the end of the year, Jake thought it would be easy with the help of the system, but even with the system helping it was difficult to improve in a few months, the more training time he was more certain he would have to win using the stamina bar.

"How is Clara? Has her marriage situation improved? I see she's better today."

"Nothing improved, I think she gave up everything, almost ten years of marriage so without any interest of Robert left her with no hope that something would change."

"The health of Robert's father has worsened again and he's getting more and more shameless with his lover, I think in the next two years if Robert's father ends up dying, he's going to separate from Clara."

"I can not understand why Clara has not separated from him yet, this guy only makes her suffer for many years, Clara is so beautiful and still young, she can marry again soon, but if she takes too long in this toxic relationship it will only hurt her."

"I agree with you, but Clara is very stubborn, as she had given her word that she would marry she does not think about separating until Robert has the initiative."

After that Jake and Tiffany talked for a while longer and the cocktail ended, Jake said goodbye to Clara who seemed curious about what they were talking about so they closed the restaurant and left.

The next day the restaurant would start functioning normally and they would never have time off again so if everything went right, after all how the restaurant would work with breakfast, lunch, and dinner they would have to open early and close late every day.

The other day Jake went to the restaurant to help on the first day of normal operation, everything went very well and as there were many cooks helping each other when they had nothing to do at the moment.

In the early days, they agreed that only Anna would run the kitchen and Eva would just watch and learn, then Eva would also do her duties as a chef when the restaurant was busier.

It really was not a good idea to have two chefs in a restaurant, but everyone knew that Anna would have more authority and Eva would only help in the beginning, after a few years Eva would have as much authority as Anna in the kitchen.

Since in the first few days they did not have many clients, Jake had the idea of ​​inviting several restaurant staff to eat Full English Breakfast without any special conditions, the staff was very happy about it.

After they had gone a few days the customers increased and Jake had to stop inviting the staff, the staff understood and were very grateful, and the most intelligent would always recommend Eva's restaurant to hotel guests.

After all they would not miss anything doing this and would not even hinder the hotel, in addition, they knew the food was truly delicious, especially the apples and desserts, after going to the restaurant as guests some who had the highest salaries even went back there as a customer because it was not expensive the Full English Breakfast.

Hotel guests sometimes received the recommendation of the manager, the receptionist, and other hotel staff and went to the restaurant and enjoyed the service and even tipped thanks to the staff they were happier to recommend.

So Jake's simple business strategy worked, thanks to a little luck, a little intelligence, good restaurant food, and customers did not have many options.

Guests at Full English Breakfast hotels also sometimes had lunch and dinner at the restaurant, at first Anna decided not to close the restaurant for reservations and serve the customers who would catch up.

If it was the time of the mobile apps it could all be easier with the restaurant having good appraisals in food apps, but by that time that was the best way Jake could think.

After another week of helping in the restaurant Jake left everything in Anna and Eva's hands, he was sure that even though they had some difficulties, in the beginning, they would be able to.

Jake had to go back to his training at school, he had to improve his body as fast as possible so that he could run at the end of the year, after all, he could not train like that when the most important basketball games are happening.

Jake returned to training and ran another 40 km in a day in 160 minutes, he did not have many difficulties and so he thought he could move to the 50 kilometers, but the other day coach Mike called Jake to his office.

Jake did not understand why he had been called, after all, though some players were training on the court the coach had dismissed the mandatory training team, so Jake had time to run.

"Hi Jake, thanks for coming, sorry for interrupting your training."

"Okay, coach, is there anything you want to call me here?"

Jake was uncomfortable because sometimes the coach was very polite to him who was just a player, it was good that coach Mike did not do that when other players were around, otherwise, the situation could get weirder.

What Jake did not know was that Coach Mike also did not like to do this, but he started doing this after receiving several notices and councils from the president of the school to treat Jake well, in addition, Coach Mike was very grateful to Jake for helping him to get a promotion.
