"Welcome back Sir!" Jake hurriedly said respectfully after seeing Hutton’s car getting into his garage at the front courtyard.
"Well I can see that you are very punctual" Hutton said with a light smile on his face as he came out of his car.
"Well I didn’t know when you will be coming back and I don’t want to make you wait when you are back so..." Jake replied with an embarrassed smile on his face.
"Ok, you don’t have to feel weird about it. Follow me into the house" Hutton said with a light chuckle before he walked into his house.
"Ok sir" Jake respectfully said before following Hutton into his house. As soon as he got into the house, he suddenly had a shocked expression on his face as he thought.
’How can a house be this luxurious!?’
But Hutton didn’t seem to notice his expression as he unhurriedly sat down on a single person sofa before patting at a sofa right next to him as he said.
"Come sit here"
Although Jake was still marvelling the house with an incredulous look on his face, he still came back to his senses after hearing what Hutton said.
"Sir, isn’t it better I just stand in front of you?" Jake asked with a surprised look on his face. In all his life, most of the wealthy people he has met at their houses always told him to stand in front of them while they discuss. Even if the discussion might take up to an hour, these people wouldn’t even feel bothered for making someone to stand in their house throughout the time.
Although this kind of situation has always spoiled his mood when it happened, he still later got used to it which led him to have guard jobs.

Even if he knew that Hutton was a nice and friendly rich man, he still never expected for Hutton to give commoners like him the respect he needed.
"How is that better? I wouldn’t even allow my slave to stand before me when am having a discussion with them much less a simple man" Hutton said with a confused expression.
When Jake heard this, he suddenly had an happy expression on his face while he said.
"Ok I will sit down sir"
While Jake was taking his seat, Hutton suddenly had his mouth arched upwards as he thought.
’Seems like everything is going as planned’
Apparently, why Hutton wanted to have a discussion with Jake is because he wanted to hire Jake in order for him to do some really important missions he currently couldn’t accomplish.
These kind of missions were like having an intelligent personell where he could get information that can be considered as top secret in a person’s life or even a city, finding out someone’s identity or background or getting to the bottom of a certain event or incident.
Although Hutton didn’t know if Jake could take up such a mission, but he could train him into being capable of doing such a mission. That’s why Hutton wanted to have a discussion with Jake.
"Ok first of all, I would like to know how old are you?" Hutton asked as he looked at Jake who is already seated with a friendly smile on his face. When Jake heard this question, he quickly had an embarrassed smile back on his face as he answered.
"Well am 28 this year"
"28!?" Hutton quickly said with an incredulous expression on his face. What he had in mind was Jake being at the very least 30 years old. But what he actually got from Jake shocked him to the core.
"Yes.." Jake said in a more softer tone. When Hutton saw the expression on his face, he quickly sighed as he said.
"You don’t have to feel bad about it. Besides, there are some things that can go through that will make you look much younger than how you are now"
"Really!?" Jake quickly exclaimed with a shocked expression on his face.
"Before I will answer you, how would you like to work for me?" Hutton asked after he decided to go straight to the point.
"To work for you? But I already have a job sir" Jake said with a confused look on his face. But suddenly, a thought came into his mind which made him to quickly ask with a curious expression on his face.
"Sir, do you perhaps want me to quite my job and work for you?"
"Precisely" Hutton answered with a satisfied look on his face. But Hutton didn’t stop there after seeing a strange expression on Jake’s face as he continued.
"You don’t have to worry about the payment as I will pay you double of what you are currently being payed"
"Really!?" Jake asked with an excited expression on his face. Although he didn’t want to show it, but money is what he urgently needed for his family.
"Sure. Besides I can feel that you urgently need money so why not I help you?" Hutton said with a friendly smile on his face.
"Thank you sir! You don’t know how immensely you have helped me!" Jake said with a gratified expression on his face.
"You don’t have to mention, just go and quote your job and come back to me" Hutton said while standing up from his seat.
"Ok sir! I will do that immediately" Jake said as he hurriedly stood up from his seat and left Hutton’s house with utmost speed.
’I should wash myself up before Kenneth arrives’ Hutton thought as he went upstairs towards his room. As soon as he did, he immediately went to his bathroom and took a quick bath before dressing up in a casual shorts and a polo before going to get something to eat at the kitchen.
But not too long after he got into the kitchen, he heard a bell rang out in his house.
’That’s fast’ Hutton thought while speaking out loud from the kitchen.
"Come in!"
"Good day Mr. Hutton. Am sorry for making you to wait for too–" Kenneth said as he walked into Hutton’s home before pausing after seeing Hutton currently eating.
Knowing what Kenneth was saying, Hutton suddenly said with a light smile on his face.
"You don’t have to worry Mr. Kenneth, it’s not too long I came home myself"
"Oh please don’t be bother by Mr. Hutton. Besides you currently eating so maybe coming another time will be better" Kenneth said as he planned to walk out of the house.
But as soon as he turned around, he suddenly faced Hutton who is now standing at the house entrance.
"What!!?" Kenneth exclaimed in disbelief as he hurriedly took some steps back while staring at Hutton.
"Mr. Kenneth, I think now will be a great time for the counseling. Besides, I am already done eating" Hutton said with a light chuckle.
After looking at the dining table in which Hutton was seated at and the Hutton who is standing in front of him for a few times, he couldn’t help but ask with an incredulous look on his face.
"How did you get here without me noticing?"
Although the boxing style isn’t compared to the top level fighting style like kungfu, karate and the others, it is still an above average fighting style since many people have used it to achieve great feats.
Even Kenneth himself who is a veteran boxing master have accomplished many feats with the boxing style. But he has never experienced a situation where he couldn’t even notice when someone moved past him and stood right behind him.
"It’s seems like I have seen the reason why you can’t achieve the Grandmaster rank all these years" Hutton said with a calm look on his face.
"You already know the reason?" Kenneth asked with a shocked expression on his face.
"Actually it’s two reasons. The first one it’s your perception to your surroundings while the second is your mental strength" Hutton calmly said while bring out two of his fingers up in the air.
"Perception and mental strength.." Kenneth muttered with a pondering look on his face. Apparently, the boxing style in which he achieved master rank in only has to do with external force[1] in which he has trained up to perfection.
But apart from external force, the only thing the boxing style allows someone to master is some basic rank observation skills. So when Kenneth heard from Hutton that what was keeping him from moving into the Grandmaster rank is actually what he hasn’t practiced throughout his life, he immediately became perplexed.
"Although it will be exceedingly hard for someone at your age to improve his perception or the harder one which is mental strength, it can still be possible with the use of medicinal herbs" Hutton suddenly said with a light smile now on his face.
"Really!?" Kenneth said with a hopeful look on his face.
’What’s up with people and telling me ’really’ all the time?’ Hutton thought as he silently took a pice of paper and a pen and began to write things down on the piece of paper.
After some minutes of writing things down on the piece of paper, Hutton quickly gave it to Kenneth and said.
"Get these things I listed on the paper. Once you have done it, come to me and I will do the rest"
After looking at the things listed on the piece of paper, he quickly said excitedly as he rushed out of Hutton house.
"I will get it done as fast as possible"
