JoyReadJada had long since gotten sick of such discriminatory behavior, but she could not argue, as Pax always did whatever he liked.
She only spoke about it now that Frank had taken the reins of the Jaric estate. And just as Jada predicted, he had already proven himself more worthy than Pax.

After lunch, Frank and the others headed outside, where a Rolls-Royce was waiting.
Jada took the wheel, telling Frank as she drove, "The people in our subsidiaries can be a little difficult, so don't get taken for a ride." "I won't," Frank replied-he was not even concerned about them.
Alda spoke up just then, saying, "Don't get overconfident! I'm telling you, those gangs can be really disgusting. They don't consider how they should properly make money, only thinking about how to suck up to people and swindle them. Worse of all, most of them fall victim to them." Since Alda had been working for her family business before this, she very much agreed with what Jada said.
Frank simply kept quiet, shaking his head.
Their first stop was at apany called Tammeron, which was a property managementpany. The owner, Urich Hampton, used to be good friends with Pax and was said to be a well-connected gangster.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon, the Rolls-Royce stopped outside Tammeron, and Jada quickly alighted to open the door for Frank, even keeping her hand on the car roof to shield his head.
The security guards outside were ready to greet Jada and were shocked by what she did—what could have suddenly made the haughty Ms. Turin suddenly so humble? They did not recognize the man getting out of the car either. Sure, he was handsome, but was he that important? Even as the thought crossed their minds, a woman and four beefy men wereing straight for the front door, and the security guards promptly stopped them. "Who are you people?" "Urich Hampton owes us money! Now bring him here, or we will!" the woman snapped, while the beefy men behind her cracked their knuckles audibly.
The security guards smiled in wry amusement. "Listen, woman. Mr. Hampton is way above you. I understand how you feel, but you shouldn't havee. He's going to make you pay." They were clearly just employees and were reasoning with the woman in earnest to help her.
However, the woman smirked. "Did you really think I'd be scared of Urich?" "Sure not. But I think you should find out what he did first..." While the security guards were busy reasoning with the woman, Frank cover.
"What are you doing here, Whitney?" Frank actually recognized the woman, as she was none other than Whitney Chandler, who was the infamous Sally York's mother. "Wait, is that you, Lugh Frankton?" Whitney was at once surprised and delighted as she glanced behind at the beefy men. "That's Mr. Frankton! Now greet him!" "Mr. Frankton!" The beefy men promptly bowed their heads at Frank.
"What's going on here...?" Frank asked, confused by what Whitney was up to.
She smiled. "You might not be aware, but someone in Chandlerton had a business transaction with the wonder of Tammeron. And guess what that prick bailed with the money, and I'm here to demandpensation for my people." en.kikistories "What?!" Jada frowned. "No way... Tammeron may not be a majorpany, but surely they wouldn't stoop to conning people?" Alda was puzzled too-money would alwayse in, as long as apany maintained their daily operations. Why would they do. something that would barely earn them any money while also getting them charged in court? en.kikistories Nheless, Whitney shook her head. "What would you know? Urich Hampton is just built differently-he takes joy in swindling people, and he'd always wait for his victims toe hunting for him, and then humiliate them." en.kikistories
