Chapter 404 Rest and Business 8

Jake couldn’t tell Clara that their sponsorship contract would have to end this season, it was not yet final and Jake had only told his mother for now, so it was better than Clara could have great sales this year because next year they would not have it to help improve sales.

Jake could say that he would join the NBA only after the end of this basketball season when he had no problem that nobody knew about, the companies that negotiated with David knew that Jake would enter the NBA, but they would never say anything about it so as not to spoil their reputation.

If in the future Jake could help Clara’s company in any way even if he didn’t receive sponsorship he would help, the problem was that his future contract with the shoe company would probably prevent him from doing so.

Jake and Clara split up after lunch was over and Jake went back to his house, Jake had already talked to Emily and the next day he would talk to her about the next investments Jake would make, then he would spend a few more days relaxing and coming back to the university.

When Eva came home after working at the restaurant she brought Anna with her, they had closed the restaurant earlier because Anna wanted to see Jake as they hadn’t talked in a long time as Jake didn’t go to the restaurant anymore.

Even though they saw each other sometimes it was always when they had other people around and they couldn’t talk easily, in fact, Eva and Anna already thought that Lola had accepted that she would not date Jake and that she didn’t think about it anymore.

But with Jake going to the restaurant again everything could change and that could make Lola suffer again, besides, Jake was at the university and after that, he would become a professional and go to another city, so Jake didn’t mind not going to the restaurant and he was only in Miami for a few days.

"How are things at the restaurant, Anna? I ask my mom, but I don’t think she would tell me if the restaurant had a problem."

"Hahaha, no need to worry, Jake, things in the restaurant are very good, almost all year the restaurant is always full and as you know the employees do their job well and so we have no problem with the inspectors or with culinary critics."

"We are making a good profit even by charging a lower price for the dishes on our menu, so taking the fatigue out of having a lot of work, we are doing very well, soon we will make another menu renewal and customers are looking forward to it."

Jake was happy to hear that things at the restaurant were really good if they always had a crowded restaurant it was normal for them to make profits even by charging less and with his mother giving great salaries to employees.

With the menu being renewed again they would have no problems with customers getting tired of the restaurant and most of the customers were people from the hotels who came to eat, these people came a few times a year or just after several years to eat again at the restaurant.

"Anna, or do you think about a restaurant renovation? We can buy an even bigger place for the restaurant to have more customers, or we can buy some neighboring buildings and use it to increase the size of the restaurant."

Jake had received a lot of money after that profit-sharing from Robert’s company and would also earn even more when he made the contracts when he entered the NBA, so he was thinking he could try to improve his mom’s restaurant.

He had given up on the idea of ​​building restaurant branches because to do that Eva would have to choose people to work at the other branches of the restaurant and that would make Eva even busier and Jake felt that she didn’t want that.

"I don’t think it’s a good idea, Jake, you know that your mom doesn’t care much about money and doesn’t intend to be a millionaire at her restaurant, so she doesn’t charge that much for the dishes on the menu and pays good salaries to the employees."

"So there is no need to increase the size of the restaurant or create branches, after all this is not what your mother wants, if the restaurant increased in size, your mother and I would have more work and we would have to hire more employees to receive a little more Of money."

Hearing what Anna said Jake realized that he was thinking things wrong really, he got used to getting involved in the business, with the companies that sponsored him and with the companies that he owned or owned.

All he ever had to think for the good of these companies was to increase their profit and increase the value of the companies, that was his job and if he did that it was because everything had worked out.

Because Jake thought that his investments were doing so well and that’s why Matthew’s company was improving so much and making so many profits, but his mom’s restaurant was different, it was for Eva to fulfill her dream and be happy working that was what Jake always wanted for his mother.

So always thinking about what they could do to get more profits or make his mom’s restaurant a successful company was not what Eva wanted, so Jake decided he would give up thinking like that.

After that they had dinner with the food that Jake had prepared and then talked for several hours, Anna wanted to leave and Jake suggested that she sleep at their house, after all, Anna lived alone and it was too late to leave the car.

Jake’s house, which was actually Eva’s house, could be considered a mansion, so naturally, it had several rooms and the employees tidied up when Eva was not at home.

Eva agreed with Jake and asked Anna to stay and so after thinking for a while Anna decided to sleep in one of the rooms at Jake’s house, the very next day Anna and Eva went to the restaurant and Jake was alone again.

In that week that he was at home Jake was not running as he always did, even though he had already recovered completely he was surprised after being in such a bad physical condition because of an airplane trip.

Jake understood that it could be because he tired his body and muscles too much because he trusted the system, after what happened Jake decided he would rest more and would not always overdo the training.

Even so, Jake still went to the gym at his house every day and coached a few hours of basketball as he always did, at lunchtime Jake went to the restaurant he had set up with Emily to talk to her.

As it was Jake who had set lunch he arrived earlier this time and was waiting for her, after a few minutes Emily came and saw Jake and went to him, Jake thought Emily was very beautiful and didn’t look so tired.

"Hi, Emily, thanks for coming over here."

"It’s okay, I know it must be an important issue and you also want to know the reports from the last year, as you are only going to be in Miami for a few days we have to resolve things quickly."

"Yes, you can give me business reports last year and then I’ll tell you what we’re going to do."

After saying that Emily started talking about Jake’s 1997 profit and expense report, taking out the nearly $ 7 million that Jake received from him in the sale of shares that Emily’s father and his friends they had, all Jake’s companies had only losses.

The investment firm had no profit other than the invested shares, and those shares did not make much money for his company, and Jake had to pay Emily and the other employees’ salaries in addition to paying for the building.

Jake’s other company that Charlie and his friends created the products that Jake asked for had even more losses than Emily’s companies, but Jake knew that this was an investment he had to make to have the smartphone prototype and also from the Android system that Charlie and his friends were making now.

When Jake got the patents he had already asked Emily to get together with more lawyers, the future would be guaranteed, even if he didn’t need more money he still wanted to get as much as he could by investing.

These companies were an investment that Jake was making for his entire life, after the 2000s he would step away from the business world and just help Matthew, he would leave Emily running his companies.

Of course, with all the money he would receive from NBA sponsorships and also with the shares he would have to be worth billions of dollars he would still have to have a company and trusted people like Emily to help him.

The taxes he already had to pay amounted to millions of dollars and it was Emily and the accounting firm that Jake worked in that took care of these matters, the money he currently received from awards in the marathons and also from his sponsors went to Emily to manage.

"Emily, I want to invest in the Cisco company again, I received 227 million dollars from Matthew, I want to keep a few million dollars with me for a future investment that I will make, so I want to invest 214 million dollars in shares of the Cisco company."

That amount really surprised Emily, she knew that Jake had earned only part of that amount in the last year and as she didn’t have access to Matthew’s company reports she didn’t know that she had done so well in the last year.

She was not surprised that Jake would again invest so much money in the Cisco company, Emily knew that Jake trusted his instincts and that it was worth risking and investing everything in the Cisco company than doing as other investors and investing in other companies.
