Chapter 120: Strictly Business

Fiona and Jason were currently standing in the middle of the hallway, so there were multiple other students who were standing around and watching them, but Fiona still didn’t feel safe enough to let her guard down around Jason! After watching him humiliate Jared like that, Fiona wouldn’t be surprised if he came here to do the same thing to her!

"What do you want?"

Fiona spoke in a guarded manner as she looked around. She was acting like Jason was about to hit her or something, and the people around began to murmur louder and bring out their phones as they watched the scene unfold. Jason clicked his tongue and spoke up calmly.

"Let’s go somewhere private. I need to ask you something."

Fiona’s eyes narrowed at Jason immediately! She didn’t really feel safe going somewhere private with him, but Fiona looked around at the people who were trying to take pictures and videos, and she knew it would be worse to have whatever conversation they were about to have in front of so many people. Fiona turned to Jason and nodded slowly, and Jason began to lead her away from the crowd.

They walked for a few minutes and eventually got out of the building and into the garden on the western side of the school. There were a few lovers eating their lunch together on the grass, but there was enough space between them and the other students that they wouldn’t have to worry about anyone hearing whatever was said. Once they were alone, Fiona folded her hands across her body in a tense gesture and gave Jason a hard look.

"Well...? We’re alone now, so you can talk, right? What do you want? If this is about what happened with Darren, then don’t even start. I didn’t touch him, so you can’t tell me I did anything wrong—"

Jason cut Fiona off before she could go off on a rant. He wasn’t interested in wasting time on this conversation, so he wanted to get it done as quickly as possible.

"It’s not about Darren. It’s about your family’s company. I want you to get me a meeting with your father."

Fiona’s brow creased as she frowned. What the hell was Jason talking about? That was literally the last thing Fiona thought she would hear right now. He wanted to meet her father?

"Why?"

"Your family runs the Tenet company, right? The one that buys Magic Crystals from superhumans."

Fiona’s expression slowly began to relax once she realized that Jason’s reason for calling her out here was completely separate from what had happened inside the cafeteria. He was trying to talk about business. Fiona nodded to Jason.

"Yes, we run Tenet. But we don’t just handle Magic Crystals. That’s only a branch of the company. My older sister runs that branch."

"Alright, get me a meeting with her this weekend and tell her I have a proposal that she’d want to hear about. Show this to her and she’ll understand what I mean. You can text me the time and date later."

Jason tossed a medium-sized Magic Crystal from an Adamantine Ant Soldier at Fiona, and she caught it out of the air quickly before looking it over with wide eyes. This was the first time Fiona would ever see a crystal this large, and she knew something like this would cost at least a couple hundred thousand dollars! And Jason was just handing it to her like some toy!? How many of these things must he have for him to be treating it so nonchalantly?

Jason turned around to leave, and Fiona felt her frown deepen! Normally, Fiona knew that a demand like this would never work on her sister. They ran a multimillion-dollar company, so it was unheard of for the head of the Magic Crystal department to be summoned by a newbie superhuman. But this single crystal would change all of that. With how confident Jason was, Fiona was certain that he had a lot more of these, and with the issues they were currently having in the company, Fiona knew her sister would definitely be interested.

But there was a small feeling of irritation that grew in Fiona’s heart as she watched Jason walking away without even looking back once. Fiona had been glad when she realized that Jason wasn’t going to be talking about anything personal between the both of them, but now that he was leaving so nonchalantly, she felt angry that he hadn’t said anything to her personally. He just spoke about business and left like she didn’t even matter!

Fiona took a step forward and called out,

"Hey, Jason..."

Jason turned around slightly and raised his brow at Fiona curiously. Fiona looked down at the ground as her frown deepened before she finally looked up at him and spoke softly.

"Earlier, in the cafeteria... I tried to stop Jared, really. He just didn’t listen to me."

Jason’s eyes narrowed before he shook his head.

"You don’t need to explain yourself to me. I don’t care."

And then he turned back around and left. Fiona bit her lip as she tightened her hands around the crystal. Her cheek lit up in an embarrassed blush and she looked around to make sure no one had seen the interaction before she finally left as well.

Jason made his way out of the school building after class with the eyes of multiple students following him. Jason had been scrolling through Metube earlier in class and he saw that the video of him and Jared was now trending on the internet. In fact, there were entire blog posts and streamers talking about whether or not it was right for him to go that far with Jared.

In the past hour alone, Jason had gotten more than ten emails from different television and internet hosts who were trying to get an interview with him. Jason ignored the messages just like he had been ignoring the messages from the many girls in his school who got his number somehow.

Even the messages from some top guilds had become more frequent than before! At this rate, Jason knew he would have to change his number very soon.

Ring~! Ring~!

Jason’s phone went off and he picked up once he saw that it was Gina calling.

"Hey, babe. Are you done with the Gate?"

[Jason, the artefact you gave me was amazing! I killed ten Magical Beasts alone! Can you believe it!? The others hardly did anything at all!]

Jason chuckled at Gina’s excitement. He was glad that she was able to use it well. He knew that the artefact would fit her perfectly since she was an emitter type.

"That’s good to hear. Are you already on your way home?"

[Actually, I’m close to your school, so I thought I’d drop by and we can go back together. I left my car behind.]

"Cool, we just let out, so I’m on my way back. Meet me in the parking lot?"

[Yeah! See you soon, babe.]

Jason clicked the phone off with a grin and he suddenly turned when he heard a voice coming from the side.

"Boss! Over here!"

Jason turned to see that it was Darren who was calling him. Darren was standing in front of a car that had come to pick him up, and Jason felt his brow rise when he saw the logo on the car! It was a Rolls Royce Sweptail!
