136 The Heavenly Eye
Vivian saw the satisfaction in Jack’s eyes. “Manager Jack, if you know someone who needs an escort service, you’re welcome to look for us again at any time.”
Fred had his connections, but so did Jack, and Vivian didn’t want to let go of any of them.
This time, because of Vivian’s great benefit, Jack was very grateful. He had personally tested the service, and it was well-trained, professional, and meticulous. He had to recommend such a security company. “Of course, don’t worry about that!”
Jack’s side was mostly related to Sage City. Although the two places were not far, it was an Island City. Local companies preferred to use local security companies. However, even a fly’s leg was meat. In this way, the probability of Vivian receiving business from Bruno’s company was much smaller.
Even if she were to take ten thousand steps back and receive it, Bruno had no right to worry about such a small matter. Besides, she wasn’t the one handling Eternity Secure Company’s business. So, no matter how she thought about it, Vivian felt that she couldn’t be too timid, so as not to restrict the speed of her development!
After the meal, a few of them left the club and noticed some movement not far away.
There were three or four men at the intersection of the street, punching and kicking the man on the ground.
“Jobs, you’ve caused my family to fall to this state. I won’t let you off. If you don’t pay up, you’ll get beaten up every Monday!”
The group of people drove away after their threats. Vivian looked curiously at the man who was curled up on the ground.
Jack frowned and sighed. “Fate makes fools of us.”
Vivian returned to her senses and looked at Jack. “You know him?”
Jack nodded. “His name is Jobs, nicknamed Heavenly Eye. Do you remember the Jade expert Martin hired?”
Vivian immediately thought of the tall, thin, and gloomy man. She had seen him a few times, but she could not remember what he looked like at all. She only remembered that he looked very ordinary, the kind that was difficult to find in a crowd.
After the results were out today, the other party did not say a word throughout. He was unusually calm. Perhaps it was because he did not spend his own money.
Vivian still remembered that the man had a venomous snake-like aura on him, which was very uncomfortable, but the two had not interacted, so Vivian did not care. “Yes, are they related?”
Jack’s mouth curved into a faint arc. “They are fellow apprentices, but their personalities are completely different. One is gloomy and likes to scheme behind people’s backs, while the other is open and honest and has a sense of justice. The latter is the beaten Jobs. His research on stone gambling is slightly better than his senior, and he is cautious, so he is more favored by their master.”
Vivian looked at Jobs’ miserable state and asked in confusion, “Then how did he become like this?”
Jack couldn’t help but sigh again. “This is stone gambling! Even if he’s called Heavenly Eye, he didn’t really have one. No one can always guess it right.”
“He used to appraise raw stones for a jewelry company. After saving up some money, he started a jewelry company with a friend two years ago. That shareholder has done some research on stone gambling, so he can be considered a professional in the industry.”
“A month ago, they had their eyes on a raw stone. There were many competitors, and the final auction price was very high. They were just a small company. If they were successful, that jewelry shop would take a big step forward. You should be able to guess the result after seeing him like this. Sigh, such a cautious person, how could he suddenly dare to bet all his assets?”
“That partner of his couldn’t take the stimulation and become mentally unstable. He ran out in the middle of the night, slipped, and drowned in the river. I heard that his family has been looking for trouble with him recently, asking him to give up the money that his partner invested.”
“It’s funny. This is a partnership. There are profits and losses. How can they let Jobs lose money alone? If they don’t have the guts, they shouldn’t do business! Besides, Jobs didn’t have any money. After selling all the company assets, he still owed some money.”
Jack fought justice for Jobs and felt that it was a pity that a talented man ended up like this.
