Chapter 239 - Blake's First Responsibility

Jake told Blake about the idea of creating the virus and how he intended to go about it. He had a few things to do so he asked Blake to be in charge of it, this was going to be Blake's first biggest task since he joined the company. So he wanted him to be careful with it.

"The company is no longer as it used to be. Hillary has followers in the company, so we have to be extremely careful with what we do. She can't find out about this, so you mustn't tell anyone about this until we're done. There should be no room for any surprises" He warned him, while Blake nodded in understanding. He knew better than to sabotage the plan by doing something like Jake mentioned.

"So what are you going to do then?" Blake inquired. Jake understood what Blake was asking. Naturally, he would have seen to the virus creation himself, but since he was delegating it to Blake, that only meant he was up to something.

"I'll be fixing the issue about this will. I don't believe father would do something like this. Nothing feels right about it, and I get the feeling that something must have happened to father, to make him do this" Jake didn't think his father's signature was forged, no...it looked real enough. He was certain the document was personally sighed by his father. But he just didn't know why.

"I think so too. But what do you intend to do?" Blake asked. He didn't know how his brother was going to go about this. Investigating this was going to be difficult since their father was dead, and Hillary wasn't going to just say anything if indeed she had a hand in it as they were suspecting.

"I'll start from the day it was sighed and whoever drafted the will"

"You mean, Attorney William" Blake said, more like he was asking.

"Yes, he's the only person tied to the will who we can ask. He must have met father on that day. So I'll start with him. And also he must have drafted the will, so he sure has a lot to tell me" Jake was sure that if his father truly sighed this will in the presence of his lawyer, then the lawyer should know why his father had made such a decision. He was sure grandfather must have asked him after keeping for all these years, but he felt he should do this himself. Grandfather might have missed somethings but not him. He wasn't going to lose his inheritance or that of his brother to a murderer, so he was going to very meticulous about this.

"Don't you want me to help you with that? I can be of help you know" Blake said, he didn't want Jake to shoulder all the responsibilities alone, he has been that for quite too long. He could be of help, he wanted to be of help. He hasn't contributed much to the family except for looking over grandfather when Jake left the country, and doing the meager job he was assigned at the company.

Jake looked at him for a while before shaking his head. "Creating that virus is enough help as it is." He told him, while Blake frowned slightly. Yes the virus was important, but he could finish that up in a day or two, he still wanted to be of more help.

Jake noticed the frown on his face and he sighed. "It seems you don't understand how important your job is" That virus is going to be their first step in securing their company, and most importantly it was the reason why he was going to spend the next coming days without his woman, do he didn't see why Blake was acting like it wasn't important enough. He stood up from his seat and looked down at Blake, "Get that thing done so I can have my woman back" He said in a stern tone before walking away. He understood Blake really wanted to be helpful to him, but creating that virus was also important too.....as a matter of fact it was very important.

Jade would lift this ban, when he fix the issue at the company. Thankfully she knows nothing about the will, else she might have made it a month, well he also didn't know at the time, and he was going to make sure she doesn't get a clue about it. He can't survive another ban of not seeing her, after this one she has placed on him.

Blake at him in stupefaction, "So this is about sister in-law isn't it?" he asked accusingly. Jake didn't pause to look at him.

"Yes it's all about her, and if you want her as your sister in-law then start doing you job. You have less than 48 hours, get to work. chop-chop" He teased before closing the door on his way out, while Blake chuckled.

His brother has indeed changed alot. Love has brought out another version of him. He couldn't have ever imagine Jake addressing any girl as his woman or even staying at home at such a critical time when he was this stressed.

The old Jake would probably be sinking deep into a woman to unwind his stress by now, but he was obeying all the instructions of his soon to be sister In-law.

Jake wanted to rest just as Jade as instructed, but he knew he couldn't do that without eating just as he has promised. She'd definitely ask him in the morning, and he didn't want to lie. So he made himself a plate of toast and a cup of milk to induce sleep.

Honestly he didn't want to sleep yet despite the fact that body was craving for it, and Jade would grill him if he falls sick because of the lack of it, but he'd love to cover some work because first thing in the morning he was going to see the attorney.

Tommorow he was going to start investigating that will, and hopefully he gets a positive response.
