Chapter 288 Destruction
The person who had come in was none other than Wilson. He was the manager of Blue Seal hotel, and Scarlet's uncle.
Wilson smiled the moment that he saw Jaden. Previously, he had been busy doing something else, when he was suddenly informed that Jaden had come over. He immediately decided to put everything aside, before rushing to meet him.
The last time that Jaden was here, he had ended up saving his life. But until now, he had yet to do anything for Jaden. So of course, he was dying to repay the favor that he was owing to Jaden.
Since he was currently the manager of this big hotel, it was not just due to the influence of the Johnson family, but instead, it was also due to his hard work. If he was just lazy because of the support that he was getting from Clifford, he would have already lost his job.
"It is nice to see you again Jaden. It has been quite a while since we last met." Wilson stated with a huge smile on his face as he stretched to his hand towards Jaden.
Jaden had already expected that Wilson was going to come over, considering that he was the manager of this hotel. And, considering that he had previously done him a huge favor by saving him, it was inevitable that he would come over, unless he was ungrateful.
Jaden shook Wilson's hand, as he responded, "It has been a while. How are you doing?"
"I'm okay, thanks to you." Wilson responded as he retracted his hand. Then, he looked towards the group of people behind Jaden, and could not help but be surprised.
As a person who was in the high ladder of the society, he of course knew the three people that were currently behind Jaden. Two of them owned security companies in this city, while the other one was the CEO of the biggest security company present in the city.
Nightstar security company had been making waves recently, and was expanding at an exponential speed. This has already made many people to start acting, considering that this was something that was going to affect the entire business circle.
Despite being curious about the reason why Jaden was meeting with these people, he did not ask. It was not his business after all.
"I was here to deal with a few things. But now that I'm done, I'm leaving, because there are other things that I need to handle." Jaden said, not intending to continue remaining here.
Wilson nodded his head. Of course, he had already gotten the information that Jaden was no longer working for the Johnson family as a bodyguard. But he was currently curious about this young man's background.
After all, after just being a bodyguard not long ago, he was currently interacting with high level people. This was something that would definitely raise brows with curiosity.
Jaden waved goodbye to Wilson, before leaving. Matthew followed behind him, escorting Jaden back to the parking lot, before Jaden got inside his BMW 7 series, and driving away.
As for the other two security company owners, they were quite curious about Jaden's background. So of course, they remained behind to ask Wilson about it.
But they were bound to be disappointed, especially after they heard what Wilson had said. Wilson actually claimed that the young man who had come to talk to them was actually a bodyguard not long ago?
But that was a great impossibility. How was it possible for a bodyguard to suddenly own such a huge company as Nightstar security company?
Despite how much they wanted Wilson to give them answers, they got nothing in the end. After all, Wilson himself was completely clueless about Jaden's real background. He had not even bothered to investigate about Jaden's background, so, all the information that he possessed about Jaden was all that he had observed, or he had heard from others.
Even though the two of them were disappointed, the two company owners decided to go back to their own businesses. They had other things to do, and the only reason why they had accepted the invitation from Matthew was simply because they wanted to see who the real owner of Nightstar security company was.
But of course, they were disappointed, especially considering that they ended up being threatened, something that was bothering them. Of course, something else that bothered them was the decision that they had made.
They had decided to go against Jaden, but it seemed that he was completely mysterious. There was a possibility that they might actually end up losing everything just as Jaden had said, but the two of them were completely unwilling to sell their companies to Jaden.
The moment that the two of them got back home, they were surprised the moment that they realized that there was a large group of people that was waiting outside the gates of their homes.
They were all carrying leaves and other things, while intending to riot. Additionally, they could see that there were several high end vehicles, indicating that they belonged to some rich people in the city.
As the two of them approached their homes, they got a little nervous. That was especially after the crowd noticed the cars coming over, and they actually began charging towards the car.
The drivers reacted almost instantly, and they reversed, before driving away. They could not understand what was going on, but of course, they were not willing to get involved in whatever had happened here.
They were here for a job, which was to become a driver. But, they were not willing to end up being beaten to death by a mob.
The moment that the cars managed to rush away from the crowd, the two people who were already tensed up could not help but feel a little relieved.
But the next moment, they were surprised when they saw a large number of police cars coming from the opposite direction.
The moment that they met, the police cars surrounded the two cars. With that, the drivers had no choice but to stop. To them, it was better for the police took arrest them, rather than the angry mob. Though the two drivers did not understand why the police was here.
Several police officers came out of the cars, and went towards the two cars. Then, they informed the two that they were suspected of committing several crimes, and were being taken into custody for interrogation, and assisting in the investigation.
This event happened in two different places almost simultaneously, with only a difference of a few minutes between them. Nonetheless, this was something that sent shockwaves in the entire city.
It might be true that the two of them did not own big security companies in the city, but at least, those companies were at least $100 million. Such a huge company was definitely going to cause ripples all over the city in case such a huge incident as the chairperson of the company being arrested.
Of course, it did not end there. Instead, even the two companies were ordered by the court to temporarily shut down business, as the investigation progressed.
Many people were involved in this incident, and in a little while, pieces of information started leaking. It was then that people suddenly began understanding the reason why the two bosses had been arrested.
It turned out that they were criminals after all. They had done many heinous things during the time that they were trying to rise, to increase the level of their specific companies.
Of course, they did many things in order to acquire the shares, things that made them the biggest shareholders of their respective companies. But now, it was those actions that had helped them climb the ladder that was coming to bite back at them.
In just about 2 days, the two companies were actually dissolved. And more than that, other than being found guilty, and being sent to prison, the two people were sent into bankruptcy.
Their families were also affected, but there was no one that they could blame. After all, from the pieces of information that they had managed to gather, it was that evidence about the crimes that the two had committed had been leaked to both the court and the police.
Furthermore, in case the police did not take action, it was claimed that the one who had sent the information would send that piece of information to the media, so that they could broadcast it.
With something like that happening, it was obvious that the police would not hesitate at all. If they did, the name of the police would definitely be smeared with mud.
And just like that, within 2 days, two well established companies within the city were destroyed. They no longer existed, something that made the two people that had already been taken to prison regret the decisions that they had made.
They did not dare to say who it was that had revealed that piece of information, considering that they understood who it was. They were afraid that if they revealed this information, Jaden would end up getting the information, and they would end up in an even more difficult situation.
After all, the pieces of evidence that had been revealed were things that had happened many years ago, something that even the two of them had forgotten.
As for the others that have agreed to sell their companies or shares to Jaden, they felt relieved. At least, in the end, they got something. Otherwise, if they had resisted, they would have ended up in the same situation, ending in prison while losing everything.
Jaden on the other hand did not pay much attention to something like that. Instead, he was simply studying, immediately after he got back home. And, he took a break of 1 hour in order to deal with the transfer of shares of the other companies to his.
The moment that this was completed, Jaden left everything to Matthew so that he could integrate those companies into Nightstar security company.
