Chapter 229 Last National High School Championship 7 (2/2)

Soon the other employees would also come to work here, they were all getting good salaries and were happy with the company, and Emily and of course a long time ago had received a raise, only Jake wasn't getting a salary yet despite being the owner.

Emily suggested that Jake receive a salary to encourage other employees, but Jake declined as he knew it could be considered fraud, especially now that the company has other people investing.

”Whose other office is Emily?”

”This is the company's accountant office.”

”Did you hire an accountant? But we work with the accounting firm, don't we?”

”Yes, but I think as we are working with a lot of money it is better to have an accountant in the company before passing the data to the accounting firm, so we avoid the risk of being misled.”

Jake then understood why she had hired an accountant for the company, Jake knew this was not necessary because he knew that the accounting firm was reliable using his second job skill, but he didn't want to upset Emily because it was he who had said that Emily would be responsible for everything in the company.

Besides, he could understand why she was worried about that, so many companies that worked with Jake's accounting firm also did something similar, so they had more confidence after the accounts were double-checked.

”I really enjoyed how you decorated the office, I leave it all in your hands now, any problems you can call me.”

”Never mind, we're always watching the stock markets and I'll let you know if there's any change.”

Jake trusted Emily a lot after working with her for a few years, and in the future, Jake would know that he would have a lot of money to take care of and might be a partner with several companies like him from Amazon.

So it was essential to have someone reliable and talented like Emily to take care of business for him, after all, Jake was above all a basketball player and an athlete, so he would not have time to take care of all the business he would have.

In several of these partnerships Jake might have to interfere if he saw that something could go wrong, he told Jeff Bezos that it would not interfere with the management of the company, this was because he knew how Amazon would develop in the future, but if he saw that the company If he was going astray he was sure to get involved and could even sell all the stock he had to avoid future losses.

He was thinking that he could find more talented people to work with him in the future, even if he knew he couldn't convince famous geniuses to work for him, it wouldn't be difficult with his charisma and financial capital to convince some talented people to work for him.

After saying goodbye to Emily, Jake had to go back to training, even if the Elite team was stronger this year, the opponents were tougher as well, with Mark out of the team in the final Jake was not so confident about winning.

Even so, Jake was someone who was challenged, even though the situation seemed much more difficult than in other years he would try his best to break his limits and bring the team victory in this final match and also in this year's national championship.

On one day he had to run out of body rest training after several days of total training, Jake went to his mother's restaurant after lunchtime, as he was busy and his mother was coming home every day more early Jake wasn't going to the restaurant lately.

So he decided to go on a day off to talk to Anna and Lola at the restaurant too after he was thinking of stopping by Mark's house to see how he was after leaving the hospital, Jake knew that Mark must be bad for not being able to more play with your teammates and help the team win the national championship this year.

Jake arrived at the restaurant shortly after lunch just as employees took time to rest before dinner after all the restaurant didn't serve breakfast either, so they had time to rest after lunch and before dinner Lola was the first one who met Jake and went to talk to him happily.

”Hi Jake, how are you?”

”I'm fine Lola, how about you?”

”I'm fine too, I didn't think you'd come to the restaurant right now when you're so busy thinking about the final game.”

”I decided to take a day off, overtraining can end up causing me an injury, I don't want to hurt myself before the final game.”

”I hope you can win this final and be champion again, I'm trying to ask for a break to go to the final game, but your mom has decided to watch this game so I don't know if I can make it.”

”I hope to see you there too Lola, but if you can't go, just knowing that you're rooting for me makes me happy.”

Lola was embarrassed to hear what Jake said, over time she was liking Jake more and more and with Eva and Anna's support she was gaining the courage to approach him even if she worked for Jake's mother.
