Chapter 25 - A Huge Haul

The car rolling over was something that many people had expected, but they still felt incredulous when they saw the car that Oliver was driving roll over.

Considering that the car has been moving at a high speed, the car rolled several times, and the wreckage was not something that could be underestimated.

The females within the crowd gasped as they looked with horrified gazes towards the direction where the car had finally stopped rolling. Currently, it could be said that the car was something like a scrap metal.

Several other cars that were participating in the race immediately stopped, as some of the youths that were driving the cars were afraid that they would face the same fate. As for others, they were completely nonchalant, as they continued with the race.

Jack had managed to see what had happened behind him. Despite that, he did not pay attention to anything like that, and just continued driving. He still had to win the bet that he had placed, and he could only win after crossing the finishing line.

And considering that he was in the final lap, Jack was no longer pressured as before. To say the truth, Oliver's driving skills were quite good. Had it been just any other young master, Oliver would have won the race.

It was just that he was competing against Jack, and Jack possessed a professional level driving skill. With the skill, he possessed experience of 20 years, something that was almost impossible for Oliver to be able to get.

Additionally, Jack was not only good in driving the cars like the one that he was currently in, but even if he participated in an F1 race, he believed that he would still win if he competed against Oliver.

It was a little chaotic at the scene where Oliver's car had rolled over. Those that were in charge of dealing with accidents immediately took action, with a firefighter truck already there.

The presence of the firefighter truck within the tracks proved that the background of the owner of this racing tracks was not just anybody.

The fire that had already started was put out, before Oliver was pulled out of the car. The guy was quite lucky, that despite that his car had rolled over, other than minor injuries, he had not suffered any huge damage.

But Oliver was not happy with this. It was true that he had survived, but that was from death after having his car roll over. But when facing Simon and his family, things would get more complicated than this.

He looked towards the screen that was displaying the race, and realized that Jack was already close to the finishing line. This made him despair. He thought that perhaps Jack would stop, but he was completely wrong about it.

With his eyes lifeless, he was lifted and placed on a stretcher, before he was carried towards an ambulance that had arrived not long after the fire truck.

This was just an episode that stirred the hearts of the people around. But nonetheless, they continued watching the race but was still ongoing, with others still continuing to raise, despite others deciding to pull out of the race.

This was something that happened occasionally, especially when a certain young master overestimated their capability. Occasionally, cars would roll over, leading to accidents, but lucky enough, not even a single death had been recorded yet.

Otherwise, things would have been complex for the racing tracks by now, as the government could not completely ignore such a race where people would keep on dying.

Jack finished the race, and immediately headed towards the VIP area, while ignoring the shouts from the crowd. He wanted to claim what he was supposed to get, before leaving here.

Him participating In the race was something that his father did not know. If Newton came to know about something like this, then things would get a little complicated.

The moment that Jack got in the VIP area, he received glances from the people inside. But, he noticed that Simon seemed to be completely lifeless while sitting on his chair.

Jack did not care, and immediately approached him. Then he said, "I want to go back home and sleep. So, can you fulfill your end of the bet?"

Simon glanced at Jack. At this time, he's eyes that had been dim suddenly lit up with fury. He really wanted to strangle Jack at this moment, but he was helpless.

At the end of it all, if he dared to do something like that, it would be impossible for him to be able to access these racing tracks in the future.

"This is not the end. I'm going to find a way of dealing with you!" Simon said while looking at Jack with a threatening gaze.

But Jack was not intimidated at all, and continued looking at him with a calm expression on his face. Seeing this, Simon seethed with anger.

Nevertheless, he went ahead and said, "I wanted to give you the car, but now, it is completely crushed. I will buy another car of the same value and give it to you. Is that okay with you?"

"There is no need for you to bother with that. Just give me the money, as I don't have any use for any more cars." Jack responded.

Simon took a deep breath before making a call. While the phone was still calling, he moved to a corner, in order to gain privacy. Then, he informed his father about everything that had happened.

As expected, his father was furious. This was something that he had never anticipated to happen. Previously, when Simon told him about the plan that he was having, even he himself believed that it would be quite easy for him to be able to get something from the Smiths.

But now that everything had collapsed, he felt that he had been too rash in his decision. How was it possible that it was going to be quite easy for him to be able to acquire 1% shares or the hotel that was owned by the Smith family?

It seemed that he had been too greedy, in such a way that he even forgot about the consequences of losing. Despite the anger that he was feeling, he decided that it was better for them to complete their end of the bet as soon as possible.

He understood the consequences that would come if they did not fulfill their end of the agreement, so, he immediately sent the money that was required to purchase a new car. But that was not the only one, as Simon would have to complete the transfer of shares that he held.

When Simon came over after making a call, his face was completely pale. Despite that, he asked Jack for the details where he could transfer the money to. Then, he transferred $550,000.

The moment that this amount of money was transferred to him, Jack received a prompt from the system.

[You have earned $550,000 from betting. The multiplier effect has been applied. You receive $55 million.]

Jack had already decided that he was going to use the multiplier effect here, using one of the chances out of the 99 remaining betting chances.

Other than that, there was going to be the one that was going to come from the shares. So, Jack wanted to use the money that he had gotten here in order to acquire the necessary skills and items that would ensure that the two of them, himself and Henry, would be able to reach the top of this world in a very short time.

[You've earned $2 million. Multiplier effect applied. You receive $200 million.]

Just like that, Jack had managed to acquire $255 million. With this amount of money, they could acquire so many skills from Henry's system store. With that, it should be possible for them to be able to reach the top of this city in a single move, at least in the hotel industry.

With that out of the way, the only thing that remained was the transfer of the 1% share that Simon possessed of Jumbo hotel. The two of them had already signed an agreement that he was going to transfer the share to him, so, Jack was not worried.

Together with Henry, the two of them left, leaving behind a group of young masters that kept on chattering. Some of them were already feeling smug, thinking that Simon had finally met his match. But for others, they felt a little worried, thinking that their positions might be threatened by the presence of Jack and Henry.

The moment that Jack and Henry got out of the VIP area, the crowd that had yet to disperse began chanting. In this race, Jack had used the name Silver in order to compete. For that reason, many people were chanting the name Silver.

"It seems that you have already become popular. Do you perhaps have the intentions of continuing to race like this? After all, it seems to be quite profitable, especially when you compete against some stupid young masters." Henry suddenly asked.

"Not really. I am limited in the number of times that the income that I get from betting can be multiplied. So, I can only do this a limited number of times. It is better for me to use the chances somewhere else." Jack responded as he shook his head.

"Sure. Anyway, we have already earned quite a huge amount of money by now. Let's go and claim the prize of winning the race." Henry said nonchalantly as the two of them headed towards the management office of the racing tracks.
