Chereads / The Reincarnation of Drake Silver / Chapter 16 - The Meeting

Chapter 16 - The Meeting

Hector was coming back from a hard fight in the game he had been playing, he had just gotten off when he heard a slight knock on his door and he said,"Come in".

A man wearing butler attire came walking in through the door and said,"Young master, there has been a meeting scheduled by an individual wishing to join the Rivera Group." He said this in a respectful voice and bowed twice toward Hector before heading out of the room. Hector got up from his bed and walked over to a desk with a warming plate on it. The plate had some food on it and as Hector thought about what had happened in the fight he had just had he ate the food. After he was done he checked his phone for the time of the meeting, his father had put in him charge of new people coming into the group and he had a spotless record so far in recruiting the right people. The meeting was set 3 hours from then so he decided to go and workout beforehand.

This was something a friend of his in the game had told him, that if you worked on exercising and your moveablitty in reality it would help you in the game. From what Hector could tell it was the truth and he had been seeing gains in both the real world and in the game. As he was working out he looked at his body, fit and toned in the right places but fully muscled and thick in the places where all the important muscles were located. Hector didn't like to do anything half-assed so he went the extra mile and hired the best personal trainer he could find. The trainer, after hearing what he was training for, took it as a challenge and had been pushing him in everything and it was really starting to show. Hector had his hispanic body toned to perfection and as he stood at full height of 5 foot 11 inches, with his insanely good looks, he looked like a demi-god incarnate.

He was happy with his training today and left to go to the meeting. His personal driver pulled him up to the Rivera Group headquarters and dropped him off before parking on the side of the building to wait for him to exit. Hector walked into the building and went towards the meeting room, seeing many familiar faces as he walked. Everytime he passed someone they would either bow or salute in head direction and say,"Young master". He had never told anyone to do this, but it was explained to him that he deserved at least this much respect, and though he didn't really get it, he let them do what they thought was right.

Hector entered the meeting room and saw a young man sitting at the desk with Hector's usual aide Hillary sitting on the opposite side, typing something on her computer. When she saw him she got up, bowed and sat back down, her hands hovering above the keyboard. Hector went up to the young man who had stood up and shook his hand as a sign of respect and the two sat down on either side of the desk.

Drake was trying to stay calm but he was very nervous, the person in front of him was not much older than him but he seemed to gain so much respect from everyone around him, so Drake knew he was not a normal person. However Drake steeled himself and calmed down, this had to happen and after planning all morning with Eco he was ready.

The young man across from him said in a friendly demeanor,"Hello, My name is Hector Revera, I am in charge of the Hiring of Personnel for the company. Which position are you here for?"

Drake calmed himself once more and said,"I am here with a business proposal"

Hector seemed suddenly very interested and said,"Go ahead, you have my attention"

Drake responded,"Do you know of Adella Online?"

Hector's eyes suddenly lit up and he excitedly said,"Yes! I play the game!" Then his expression turned a little serious and he said,"Are you here about the game?"

Drake put up his hand in a stop sign and said,"Hold on, hear me out, I know the game is not very popular right now, but I've been playing for a while and I can confidently say that the game will reach at least 5% of the world economy in at least 6 years."

Hector felt like his whole world just crashed onto him. He looked at Drake in front of him and said,"That would mean you expect the income to exceed 20 trillion?!"

Drake looked at him confidently and said,"I know so, If you don't trust in my abilities I have been observing the local market and can give you a stock that will triple in value, hmm.. I'd say about 18 hours from now?"

Hector Immediately reeled from this information and thought to himself,'This is so strange, he reminds me of my friend in the game but that is near impossible, but this knowledge he has and the intuition, it's just like me! If I can get my friend in the game to join forces with this guy, we'll be unstoppable!' Hector cleared his throat and said,"What is the stock?"

Drake was a little taken aback because he didn't expect to be taken seriously with just this much and said,"The Holoman Group, from the State Union"

Hector was still skeptical and said,"What is your name?"

Drake simply shook his head and said,"If I am incorrect, You shall never see me again, and if I am right, I will be back tomorrow."

Hector wanted to question the man on how he came to theorize a very similar number to what he had, he needed this man as an ally. Not wanting to make him mad he said,"You are very arrogant to walk in here and declare this, however I will gamble on this, even if you are wrong, I still wish for you to come back here tomorrow, there is a lot I wish to discuss with you."

Drake was a little confused but simply said,"As you wish, now, I have to get back, see ya!" Drake then left the building and went back home, only calming his beating heart once he had the door closed. 'That Hector was scary, as soon as I started talking about the game his eyes shot up like a hawk and they felt like they wouldn't leave until I got away from him.' Drake breathed a sigh in relief but nonetheless knew that this had to happen, he needed a very powerful backer.

Hector knocked on his father door once more, hearing his father say in his usual non-caring tone,"Come in"

Hector walked in as his father was about to say something he interrupted and said,"Father I have found another genius"

His father stopped what he was about to say and said,"What? What are you talking about?"His father knew his son would not blatantly spill lies and thus his son had his undivided attention.

Hector then said,"Yes Father, I had a meeting today with a young man. He said that he played the same game I told you about and just like me urgently tried to let me know that he believed the game to have a future 5% of the economy unlike my estimate of 7%"

His father was floored and thought to himself,'My son wouldn't have come to me over this, there must be something else' and then tentatively asked,"That's not it, is it?"

Hector shook his head and said,"No father, he said that he wished us to see his abilities and told how a group called the Holoman Group stock would jump up in valuation by 3 fold within the next 15 hours."

Hector's father had his mouth agape in surprise and suddenly went quiet as he thought about this. Hector didn't say anything either and so the men sat in silence for a few minutes before his father said,"I will put in 200 million, you take 100 million of what i gave you and buy your own part, this will help your grow on your own, have your friend use this knowledge of his to help us. Son, this is a huge gamble, but I trust in your abilities and know you will do well."

Hector slightly teared up and said,"Yes father! I will do my absolute best for the future of the Rivera Group!"

Hector and his father called the butler and got to work pouring their respective money into the stocks of the Holoman Group. It seemed like good times were just around the corner.
