Vrooom!
The Bentley Continental GT sped up before entering the underground parking of the building. Immediately after, Jack and Sabrina alighted from the car. A security guard came a few seconds later.
He knew Sabrina as he was there when the building was being handed over to her after the developer was done. He was the current captain of the current team that was on the day shift.
"Greetings Mrs. Sabrina." After a bow, he greeted her before greeting Jack. But, it was obvious that he was treating Sabrina with more respect than he did with Jack.
Nobody could blame him. Jack was just nineteen years old and his clothes were nothing flashy. So, the captain thought that Sabrina had come to inspect the building while at the same time, bringing this youth to broaden his horizon.
Jack on the other hand didn't mind at all. It wasn't like being feared or being revered would give him more money. But, what he noticed was that, it seemed that Homescope Properties Limited had a cooperation with Good Vision Security Limited.
Or maybe, he was just overthinking things as Good Vision Security Limited was amongst the best security companies present in the country and the most reputable one in Inchoate. As a landmark building of Inchoate City, it had to receive the best security.
"Captain Tim, this is Mr. Jack. Here's here to check out the building, he's going to buy it. Mr. Jack, this is Tim, the captain of the guards of the day shift." Sabrina smiled as she introduced the two.
"Ah," Sabrina's words immediately made Tim flustered. After all, he'd been superficial with Jack not long ago. Who knew that this was going to be the knew employer of his? So, he immediately gave a deep bow to Jack and said, "Mr. Jack, am sorry for my ignorance right now."
Tim knew very well that a person that could purchase a floor of the building was of a higher status than Sabrina. For him to treat Sabrina more respectfully than the other party, it was the same as stepping on the other person's reputation.
"Don't mind." Jack said before turning to Sabrina, "Let's check the building out."
"Okay," Sabrina replied before looking at Tim, "We're going to check it out. You can come with us."
Tim nodded before the trio took the elevator that was present in the underground parking lot and headed to the first floor.
Jack looked around and was impressed by the level of the building. The first floor was well designed and the layout wasn't messy. This was an office building. So, the whole first floor was a closed office layout.
The offices were as big as 300m². Then, there was one office that overlooked the northern part of the city. From there, the although one couldn't see clearly due to the other buildings, at least, one could see the night lights.
After going to the second floor and the third, Jack found that the layout was different from the other. But, one thing remained the same. It was that, the lobby area was the same size and same design. The only difference would be the colors and decorations.
After seeing that everything was good in the first five floors, Jack decided to go to the fifteenth floor. He knew all too well that, going to all the floors would surely tire them out. After all, each floor spanned for thousands of meters.
Just like that, Jack and the duo finally arrived on the top most floor. Of course, they had used the elevator, that according to Sabrina had access to all floors. Well, even Jack could see that from the numbers that were written on the buttons.
The thirtieth floor was completely different. The eastern and western sides of the horizon could be seen clearly. The desk and seat of the big boss was stationed in the eastern side, facing the west.
According to what anybody could see about the layout here was that, the one using this office could bath in the morning sun and, enjoy the setting sun in the evening.
Well, the waiting area was in the western part of the floor. As for the northern side of the office, there was the meeting hall. Jack looked at it and found that it was quite big in that a hundred and fifty people could fit in.
On the southern part of the floor, there was a living area. Once one entered through the door, he would enter the living room. There were two bedrooms, a kitchen and finally, there was a washroom and a bathroom.
Things here were quite advanced and the room looked no different from the palace. Jack was satisfied with this setting. After all, if he was at work and got tired, there would be no need for him to drive back home. He could just stay here.
After seeing that everything was okay, Jack then paid the $70M in full, no balance. After that, the group finally decided to leave the building. After all, it was already lunch time.
On this, Jack decided that he was going to treat the duo to a good meal.
On reaching the ground floor, Jack found that, it was a big open space that was filled with different types of things that could help people relax or entertain them. There was a place where children could play as well. In other words, the ground floor was present for those working to relax, or entertainment.
Of course, the activities were separated from each other and there was no space for games like soccer or cricket.
After getting out of the building via the front door, they found that there was a commotion. It seemed that there was a person that was trying to enter but was being prevented from accessing the building.
…..
"What do you mean that I cannot enter? We're going to buy this building. So, I have to check it out first!" A man said to the two guards that were blocking his way.
"I'm sorry sir. It's not that we don't want you to enter. It's just that you can't enter without the manager of Homescope Properties Limited. After all, she's the one in charge of the building." One of the guards replied.
"Do you know who I am? I'm Frank Dante! Dante! You got that? If you continue trying to stop me from entering I'll make sure that you won't get even janitor's job in this city!" The man spoke in a deep voice laced with anger and threat.
"Please sir, don't make things hard for us. We're only guards here. According to the rules, we cannot let you into the building unless you're the owner or you're here with the real estate agency manager." The other guard replied. Although they were scared, they still won't allow him to enter.
"Now that you know that you're a guard, you should know your place. You're nothing but a dog. If you continue this, humph, I'm going to make sure that you're going to suffer!"
"S-sir, I'm sorry but we can't let you in."
"What do you mean? Isn't Mrs. Sabrina inside here? I was told that she left in the morning! I've tried contacting her but she's not picking up the phone!"
Just as the guard was about to respond to the aggressive man, the door to the building opened and three people stepped out. The captain had already heard about how his subordinate was having it hard, so, he rushed ahead.
The person that was dishing out threats was a middle aged man with a black suit. He had short black hair that shone in the noon sun. Currently, he was putting on dark glasses.
"Hello sir, please don't make things hard. I know that you also know the rules here. So please, don't make things hard for us," Tim said.
"Who are you?" Frank frowned as he stared at Tim.
"I'm Tim, the day shift captain-" even before Tim could finish introducing himself, he was pushed to the side as frank had already seen Sabrina. He rushed towards her and began barking.
"Mrs. Sabrina, what's the meaning of this? Look at what is happening here? I've tried calling you all this time but you didn't receive any of my calls. If I hadn't tried here, I wouldn't have gotten a chance to meet you today! I was sent by the head of the Dante family to come and look at the building before the decision is made. Now, I'm starting to have second thoughts about this!"
A barrage of words were thrown at Sabrina. And, Jack, who was standing next to Sabrina couldn't take it anymore. This guy was behaving arrogantly as if he owned the place.
Having just bought the place, there was no way that Jack could allow a dog to bark wildly at the entrance.
"Hey, can you have a little bit of self respect and act like a grown up? You're wearing a suit, but you're not acting with any type of etiquette at all." Jack said with a frown.
Frank gazed at Jack ferociously and said, "Do you know who you're talking to young man?" Frank hadn't expected that there was someone that would try lecturing him. Furthermore, the person that did so was only a youth.
"What does your identity matter to me? Just behave like a civilized person and stop making noise here like a rabid dog." Jack didn't care about the identity of this person. After all, no matter what, he was just a member of a big family in a small city. It was not like he was from a big family that could threaten Jack.
Anger could be seen in Frank's eyes as he stared at Jack coldly. It was as if he was going to eat him the next second. But, Jack didn't care and remained calm.
Frank pointed at Jack as he looked at Sabrina and reprimanded, "See here. If you can't teach your son or brother, I'll help you in educating him. How dare a small brat like him talk- Aargh!"
However, before he finished whatever he was going to do next, he screamed in pain as he tried retracting the hand that was pointed towards Jack.
"I don't like some nobodies pointing their fingers at me!" At this moment, Jack's cold voice echoed.
