"Hehe~" Christian laughed "Didn't I tell you that these investments would be a success?"
"Yes, you did"
"Now I'll have my building, in the future it will be a building coveted and appreciated by everyone."
"Well..." With a tired voice, Sara spoke.
"That's all for now aunt Sara?"
"Yes, we have no more unforeseen events... oh yes, Starbucks is now ready to open, as you requested, we will have no advertisements on televisions or the like."
"Perfect, we don't need ads, people will arrive on their own".
"Also the team was ready to start the expansion mode, 4 stores minimum for a big city, no?"
"Yes, let's not forget to buy small Coffee companies if we can, let's annex all those places to us."
"Ok, your mother has to see that with the team".
"See you aunt Sara, get some rest"
"Wait!"
"Yes?"
"Christian... I don't know what you are doing, but your mother is worried about you... I talked to her and she sounded very depressed"
"..."
"*Sigh* Just don't push yourself too hard, yes?" with a worried voice, Sara spoke.
"Don't worry aunt, it's just a momentary thing."
"You always say that Christian... first your books, then your math stuff, then your investments, then your research, then coffee and now whatever it is you're doing."
"..." Frowning slightly, Christian spoke "I understand... thanks for the heads up."
"Okay, see ya."
Hanging up the call, Christian looked at the screens and pursed his lips "I'm really overdoing it... I just wanted money... so why am I doing so much shit? I already have enough money to not work anymore for the rest of my life..."
Staring at the screens, Christian sighs "This is the last thing I actively do... I lock these bastards up and don't do any more shit."
"*Sigh* What a stressful shit."
...
Saturday, December 10, 2011.
"I still can't find this shit..." Looking up at the ceiling in a daze, Christian mutters.
"I've got 24 people involved so far, 14 men and 10 women, all in important positions."
"Movie stars, musicians, 2 prosecutors, the mayor of New York and the head of the police department... there's even the governor of Florida... this shit gets uglier the more I find out... worst of all, I have no fundamental proof other than cryptic messages between them."
*Ding*
Settling in quickly, Christian scowls at the message that arrived on one of the screens.
"You look self-conscious... how the fuck did this chat open?" with concern, Christian tries to identify the person who got into his computer, without finding any violation in his systems, something that worried him even more.
"You don't have to worry, I'm just watching what you're doing."
Another message came through, causing Christian to worry even more.
Grabbing the keyboard, Christian typed "How did you get into my computer? My defense doesn't detect you, how did you do that?"
"You are a newbie at this, you left your port open in many places, if you didn't do your tricks of scrapping ports and computers, you would have been found a long time ago."
"I made sure I left no traces..."
"Those methods are somewhat outdated, the best ones detect you quickly :-)"
Seeing the smiling face, Christian couldn't help but get annoyed "What do you want? Money?"
"I don't need anything from you kid, I'm just interested in what you're looking for... you're getting into some dark shit kids, get out of that place."
"What makes you think I'm a kid?" biting his lips, Christian's hands began to sweat.
"You've got your cameras focusing on you, cell phone, laptop, you're not very smart apparently."
"But I protected them..."
"Those defenses will only protect you with regular people."
"I don't find this shit entertaining, what do you want?"
"I like you kid, so I took the time to give you a hand."
*Ding*
Looking at the other screen, Christian finds that a file loaded on his computer out of nowhere.
"I'll be watching you kid, see ya."
"Wait, what's your nickname?"
"I don't have a nickname"
"You don't!? What bullshit is that, if you don't create one for yourself, someone else gives it to you, it's basic in this world."
"When no one knows you exist, you'll never have one, it just makes you more traceable."
Opening his eyes wide, Christian looked at the message in a daze.
"I see you 2 call yourselves Anonymous, what a cheesy nickname."
"You two? I'm alone."
"I'm talking about the girl."
Freezing, Christian felt a shiver run through his body, but still, his eyes glowed and he wrote.
"Don't mess with her"
"Why would I? Enough, I'm out of here, take care of my little girl for me."
With those words, the screen began to lock, so that from one second to the next, one of the CPUs began to smoke, alarming Christian.
Quickly opening the tower, Christian looked inside with a dark expression "This woman burned the hard drive..."
"How the fuck did he do that?" Looking at the screen, Christian sees that it froze with a smiley face in the middle.
"*sigh*" With a defeated expression, Christian put the CPU aside and thought about what just happened.
"Take care of my little girl for me..." Frowning, Christian muttered "Emily's mother?"
"That woman is alive?" Sitting back down at the desk, Christian opened the files left on the other CPU, looking at video by video, file by file.
After 1 hour, the disgust on Christian's face was tremendous, as his expression turned extremely pale "T-this shit is horrible"
The screaming, the crying, the pleading, all tormented Christian's mental health quickly, as his stomach churned heavily.
"I need defense fast" In a daze, Christian grabbed his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Hello good, you've reached the GardaWorld offices, what can I do for you?"
"Elite-class ZXC542."
"..." With a momentary silence, the operator spoke again "You will be relocated, give us a moment please."
"Okay..." Christian murmured, putting the cell phone aside momentarily "This defense recommended that woman... in the file it says she has no hidden dealings with any of the people involved according to her"
"Elite-Class on the line, may I know what service you want to hire?"
"The best."
"How many?"
"50"
"That would be 1.7 million dollars a month."
"What does the service include?"
"Kidnap and blackmail insurance, if you or someone in your family is kidnapped, we will send people for immediate response, with intelligence services in almost every part of the world. The insurance counts for all types of kidnapping and blackmailing, where we will have a fund of 30 million dollars to dedicate to each client, also comes as a gift 6 bulletproof vests for the client, with helmet included."
"..."
"Also for $150,000 more, we will add 5 armored vans for contractor transportation, weapons and personnel equipment comes included."
"Do you sell anything to add defenses on houses?"
"We have a package of motion sensors and infrared security cameras, price depends on the size of the site"
"How would security hosting be handled?"
"That runs on your part, the ideal is to have a home nearby for them to rest and replenish energy, the people on duty will be rotating every month, I remarked that we will send 75 people to go rotating rest periods, so you will always have 50 people available."
"Good, I want to pay for a year in advance".
"Confirmed, as far as I see the call is in Michigan, USA... is that where you want the defense to come in?"
"No, I want them to arrive in another week, I'm going to see the house first, for now we can do the contract with the lawyers."
"It would be $20,400,000 could you give us the contact of your lawyer to complete the documents?"
"Yes, it is 164-xxxx-xxxx, name Sara, but I would like to make a separate contract with my lawyer, I want 4 more people for her, two for the lawyer and two more people for her husband"
"It would be 160,000 the new contract".
"No problem, add it to my name, I will talk you out of it, so you see with her where you will use the people"
"Ready, tomorrow we will contact her, please advise as soon as possible the address of the home to perform the defense study and installation of defense equipment, thank you very much for hiring GardaWorld, see you soon"
"*Sigh*"
Dialing another number, Christian spoke "Aunt Sara, tomorrow she will be contacted to sign some documents with a protection service."
"Protection?"
"Yes, hire people to look after our house, I will also send 4 people, two to uncle Jayden and two you."
"For what protection?" With real confusion, Sara asked.
"I'll get into some dangerous but necessary shit, we need it, try to lease or find a place very close to your house so these people will sleep near you."
"I was just looking at a new house, we have space, but... can you tell me how risky what you want to do?"
"To the level that we need people watching our asses."
"I see... well, I'll take you guys in no problem, anything I need to know?"
"Everything should come to me, but I'll send people just to be sure they don't try anything funny... other than that, look for the best legal lawyers to represent me for any situation, I might get in trouble."
"Specific area?"
"I will leak some information important to me, I want it to help me get out of the situation if I get any lawsuits or something similar"
"Well, I'll look into firms to advise you, I'll send you what needs to be signed to your house."
"I'll also buy a new house, I'll be looking for now, but when I find it I want to buy it, you know, that brings a lot of legal paperwork"
"Don't worry, that's simple, just let me know when you want to buy it and that's it, anything else?"
"Yes... make the transfer arrangement, leave all my money and assets to my mother's name, leave only 100 million to my personal account"
"Are you sure? You know you don't need to do that"
"If the shit hits the fan, I'll affect all of that, I just want to avoid risk."
"Well... Anything else?"
"No, just that, thanks"
"That's what you pay me for, see ya"
"Bye."
Putting the cell phone aside, Christian sighed "If anything happens to me, everything is insured..."
Grabbing the keyboard, Christian typed quickly, then showed some security videos "Starbucks is doing well, it's already starting to fill up the stores... at this rate in a year we will have taken over the entire united states... we already have pastries, coffees and coffee variants for sale... we have all the eco-friendly packaging for future problems, no plastic straws, nothing can go wrong"
"Let's see houses" Searching through Google, Christian goes looking for mansions, so that 30 minutes he found one near Detroit.
"Two places together for sale, a large estate with 7 bedrooms 12 bathrooms, 3 kitchens, Basketball and Tennis court, swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi, whirlpool tubs, gym, panic room, movie theater, big 20 foot walls protecting the grounds...over 40,000 square feet in total, the best part is that the home is smart, I can control temperatures, curtains, among other things"
"The second place has 6 bedrooms, but they are big, I could put bunk beds for the protection people to sleep, it has 9 bathrooms and a small pool, 1 big kitchen... it serves perfectly"
"All for $20 million... it's expensive, but it serves the situation perfectly."
Looking at the contact number, Christian called the real estate agency.
"Hello?"
"Hello, this is Christian Grey, I'm calling because I'm interested in buying the two properties that are in Bloomfield."
"The ones across from the lake?"
"Yes, those."
"Would you like to schedule a viewing?"
"No, I want to buy them right now."
"W-without seeing them?" the woman asked incredulously.
"Yes, I already saw the pictures and they interested me, but I would like to do some remodeling on them, I don't know if you have any contacts?"
"Yes, we have agreements with workers!" the woman quickly answered.
"Perfect, I would like to make a door between the two walls to connect the houses... the house has some contract with workers for cleaning and gardening?"
"Yes, the workers are local, but if you want them to keep working, you have to respect their contract, also the furniture is brand new and comes included"
"Okay, can you contact my lawyer? She will make all the purchase arrangements"
"Of course she will, give me her number!" Exclaimed the woman excitedly.
"Write down 164-xxxx-xxxx, please send the workers as soon as possible, I need the remodeling in 1 week at the latest, add the account in the total amount."
"Thank you, I will call right now!"
Hanging up the call, Christian dialed another number "Hi uncle Jayden".
"Hi Christian, what are you doing?"
"I'm looking at buying a house, I need your help on something."
"Tell me?"
"I need you to buy 40 bunk beds, with good mattresses and everything you need."
"Anything else?"
"I also need more sofas, tables and seating, everything for 70 people."
"How big is the place?"
"About 8 times my house"
