Chapter 286 Small Vacation at Home 4

"Matthew, you know well that I have little time here in Miami before I have to go back to university, so if you can get me the money I have to get, I appreciate it."

"Of course, I know you're busy this time, I'll deposit it to your account today.

"Thank you, then."

It wasn't normal to do something like that, but Jake knew that Matthew could do something for him, not to mention that it would be Matthew's company that would pay the profit share anyway, he just had to send the money to his own account later.

After talking a few more things Jake left home, he wanted to be with his mother today because the week would be very busy for Jake.

Jake stayed up later talking about everything that happened at the university in those 4 months, they talked on the phone, but speaking in person was different, Eva was happy to hear that Jake had made several friends.

She was worried about Jake who usually didn't have many friends, he only had Joseph at school as a friend of his age, he was also friends with the players on the basketball team and on the American football team.

But it was different from the friendship he had with Joseph, not to mention that Jake since his last life when it was easier to communicate with people wasn't much of a telephone or internet talk.

Jake was the kind of person who believed that just face-to-face conversation was a real conversation, so when his friends traveled far away they usually stopped being friends, in this life, it would probably be the same.

Eva was also happy to know that Jake was playing normally on the basketball team and was happy there, she knew Jake had the ability and could choose from several universities to go to play in one so she could not accept if the coach did not give opportunities to Jake play.

As for the marathons she can watch Jake's races on television, she was thinking of setting up a television in the restaurant just so that customers could watch her son's races, Eva also learned that some of Jake's basketball games would be televised.

The other day Matthew had already sent the money to Jake, so he wasted no time and took advantage of his had to go to the restaurant to call Clara with whom he had not spoken for many months.

He thought about calling Tiffany too but thought it better to talk to Clara first and if things went well it wouldn't be too late to call Tiffany, Clara said she was busy for Jake, but when he said it was important she had to go to the restaurant.

As it was Jake who invited him he first arrived at the restaurant, so he saw when Clara arrived, she was much better than before and didn't look any pale and looked the same way he first saw her.

Even though Jake could see that there was something different about Clara, she didn't look as happy as she was before, even though she had recovered from the shock of separation and what Robert had done to her, Clara's heart didn't seem to have recovered from it.

"Jake, how long we haven't seen each other."

"Yeah, it seemed like you had ignored me in the last few months, did I do something you didn't like?"

"No, you didn't do anything wrong, I really have been really busy trying to sort out the company situation and I'm not as excited to talk anymore."

The situation of the company to whom it saw the reports seemed great since Clara was avoiding investing in the company in those years and yet the company's revenue kept increasing, they sold a lot more since Jake became known across the country.

Even though she was having a lot of problems because she didn't want the value of the company to increase but the revenue could increase, by the end of the year she was finishing the balance sheet, even if they had the biggest profit in the company's history in 1996. not even close enough to buy Robert's stock.

She didn't have a company like Matthew's where she could just have a popular product that with new technology and high-profit margins could make her a millionaire, the most expensive products she had were gym equipment.

But even with this equipment, she had to pay most of it to the company that creates the product and she couldn't put the price she wanted because her company had several competitors selling for the same price margin.

So business was different between companies, she had to rely on a line of tens or hundreds of products that had to sell hundreds of thousands of units for her to make a good profit as she had this year.

It was as Jake had thought before, maybe in her past life, the same thing had happened with Clara's company, as she wasn't sponsoring someone like Jake even though paying so little Clara must have given up on her company and sold it to the competitor.

After all, right now having such good sales, Clara seemed to be starting to get discouraged about her business situation, of course, Jake couldn't question Clara's willpower, many in the same situation she was in would have given up and sold the company.

After all, she would be profiting a lot if she sold only her share of the company compared to how much she initially invested and over the years, not to mention that in those years she was receiving her share of the company's profits.

"That's why I thought I had done something you didn't like, it's usually during the tough times you can count on more friends, you can always come to me to let off steam."

"Thanks, Jake, I know that you and Tiffany have always been my great friends and are helping me a lot in my difficult time, it's thanks to your support that I can keep fighting, but this is a subject you can't help me."

Jake couldn't say anything about it, Clara's company really was in a situation where only money could help her, and Clara thought Jake couldn't raise that money on her own in the next 4 years until the deadline to buy her actions are over.

Also, with the profits that Clara and Tiffany's companies made this year, they knew they could raise enough money to buy the stock from Robert's hands in a few years, so Clara was tired but motivated to keep working if she didn't see no hope could have given up.

Jake naturally knew what situation Clara was in and after so many years finally had another opportunity to help her, so he had asked for this advance to Matthew, Jake knew that could end up losing hundreds of millions with this act, but he would just be pleased doing this.

"So I think now I can help you, Clara."

"What do you mean, Jake?"

"I received my share of this year's Matthew company profit distribution and I don't intend to do anything with that money, so I thought about buying those shares from Robert's hands."

"So you can re-invest in the company without having to worry about losing most of the company's equity stake, it won't solve the whole problem because the competitor will still have part of your shares, but you will no longer be in one such a difficult situation."

For a while Clara had no reaction because she didn't expect Jake to talk about it, she even thought Jake was joking, but knowing his personality she knew it was impossible.

She never thought it would be Jake who would eventually help her buy these stocks, she even thought her father would end up doing something about it even if it annoyed his brother, but never thought Jake would buy those stocks.

"Jake you know I need at least $ 32 million to be able to buy that 10 percent stock from Robert's hands."

"Of course I know, I've talked about this several times with you and Tiffany, I have the necessary money."

Clara trusted Jake but was worried that something like what happened to Robert would eventually happen to Jake, with Robert she was lucky that his father had placed a restriction that she had 5 years to buy the stock.

But with Jake she couldn't do the same as she knew he was doing her a favor, so she had no choice but to accept that Jake bought these shares so that her company and Tiffany's company that was also impaired could invest and develop again.

Jake also knew what Clara should be thinking, so much so that he noticed how Clara just lent Tiffany's money to buy the stock and never suggested that Tiffany buy the stock, it was only natural that she was suspicious after her own husband cheated on her.

He would only be annoyed if she suggested that he lend her the money or suggest a restriction, but it seemed that even thinking about it would rather trust Jake than suggest something like that, it made Jake more relaxed and pleased with Clara's actions.

"Don't worry Clara, I wonder what you're worried about, I had thought of signing an agreement that I will not sell the shares to anyone other than you and give you all the voting rights."

Jake had suggested making a similar deal when he invested in Amazon, but Jeff Bezos eventually said it wasn't necessary, of course, because he didn't know what the company would look like in the future, or he would regret that decision.

Clara was embarrassed by Jake suggesting what she thought, she was suspicious of everything in the last few years after what Robert did to her, so when Jake suggested it she realized that her friends had already realized she was suspicious of them and realized that what was Doing was wrong.

Of course, she didn't know about Jake's investments, if she did, she wouldn't think Jake would be interested in hurting a small business like hers, after all, Jake would only have 10 percent of the stock and couldn't hurt the company in a few years.
