Chapter 175 New Game Style 4

After a week Elite team won the third game of the regional championship, they won by 24 points and it was an easier game than the second, Jake made another Triple Double and already had a record of 19 in a row.

He hoped he could keep it that way in the state championship at least, Lucas and Nathan played better this game and were getting the hang of high school play, Jake was sure they would do well after Jake and the others formed.

The next day Jake went to the restaurant to tell Eva and Anna about the news, they were both very happy with it, only two games left for Jake to win the regional championship and go to the state championship.

The restaurant was making a lot of success in those last weeks too, many people who came to visit the city of Miami stayed in the nearby hotels to be able to eat in the restaurant as well.

Many returned to stay in the same hotels only to be able to in the restaurant again, the hotels that had the problem of customers not coming back again were the ones who were happier with it.

The restaurant was also working well with all reservations booked, so there was no longer any improvement, after all, Eva and Anna said they would not like to increase the value of the dishes, so it just kept working the same way.

Some gastronomic critics of the newspapers came to do a survey and ended up making compliments to the restaurant, after all, it was not a luxury restaurant so had only to have good food and good service to be commended.

Julius was highly praised by critics saying that he could even work in restaurants with Michelin stars, but Julius did not want that stress in his life anymore and was happy with the restaurant.

Jake asked Eva if she had an interest in creating branches for the restaurant in other cities or places and Eva said she was satisfied with only 1 restaurant but Anna said it was best to wait a few years before thinking about it.

After all only the restaurant food was well known and the restaurant brand not so opening branches would not work for the time being.

Jake agreed to this, he just suggested the branches because he had separated some places to buy when Emily did the research for him, but it looked like he would not have use for those places.

The next day Oliver called Jake to his house, it seems that the things Jake asked for had arrived so Jake went to Oliver's house, and the maid took Jake to the living room and not the office as usual.

"Hi Oliver, thank you for solving this for me, I got used to asking things for you because before I could not buy anything by myself."

"No problem, I have an office that can easily take care of these things for me, besides, it's nice to have a lawyer take care of when they sign contracts, the salesmen get more honest."

So Jake received three cell phones that were big and heavy as he remembered seeing in his past life, Jake had no cell phone of that type and only bought it when he had internet access on his cell phone.

Jake received the numbers and stored everything correctly, he would give one of the cell phones to Anna beside him his mother's, Jake saw that Oliver had taken advantage and bought some cell phones too, it was useful to be able to talk outside the home, especially for a lawyer like him.

So Oliver handed the car keys and documents to Jake and they went out to see the car, Jake was very pleased, after all, it was just a popular car to be able to ride in the city, Jake thought to keep this car until they get the money invested actions.

So he could buy a better car and even a new home for himself and his mother, after all, he would have to travel a lot in college and the NBA games and it would not even be worth having a home for him in those places.

"I liked the car thank you very much, Oliver."

"Stay here for a while, Jake, how's your mother's restaurant going?"

It seemed that Oliver wanted to talk even as he asked as he placed his hand on Jake's left shoulder and pushed it lightly as he walked into the garden where he had a table and chairs ready as well as some snacks.

Jake who realized this was in no hurry to leave and went with Oliver to the garden while he smiled.

"The restaurant is doing very well, better than I thought when I opened it if it was not a gift for my mother and investment I would certainly recover in a little more than a year, the restaurant already has the reserves full every day, I am happy for my mother."

"Sounds good indeed, I'm going back there for dinner another day, I loved the dessert and found it interesting that it had several different dishes there, so I can eat Italian and French food at the same dinner."

"I think things go well when they're done well and willingly, my mother did not even research anything and just made the menu the way she wanted it now people liked it."

"I know it was you who chose the place and reformed the restaurant, this was also very important in the success of the restaurant, if it were a bad place, none of that would be so successful."

"Thanks for the compliment, how's business going?"

"It's going well, my father is very excited about the new camera, next week I think he'll call you to see the finished product if nothing goes wrong next month goes to our stores."

"I'm happy to see that it's working out, it's now the company's continuing to develop new technologies and in PD and I'm sure everyone is successful."

"That and thanks to you too, Jake, my dad was disheartened by the company that had not been developing for years and was thinking of moving to Joseph to take advantage of retirement."

"But Joseph is still very immature for business, he has to study a few more years before he knows how to guide this company, so the company could end up even going bankrupt without creating the digital camera."

"Now my father is excited again with the company and so when Joseph takes over the company will be well again, and he will be prepared everything is working out."

"But you do not seem to be excited about it Oliver, I realized you called me to talk to forget the problems maybe? You can tell me then what's going on."

"You're very insightful for your age, you're right I'm in trouble right now, you should know how I told you that I never liked very troublesome things, so I did not work with my father in the company."

"I built my own law firm without much experience and I was lucky to succeed and hire qualified people, so I'm happy with my work."

"But even though it does not seem like I care a lot about my family, Joseph and my father, that's why I'm helping my father with the company now after you've said the company could go bankrupt."

"After all, even though I did not like the company very much, I did not want to see what my father built for so many years disappearing, now my father is implicating Joseph these last days, and I'm worried about that."

Jake thought it was nothing serious after all, he lunges with Joseph almost every day and his friend does not seem to be concerned about anything but studies now.

But Jake knew Oliver was not the type to worry about anything, so he got more curious about it.

"What's going on between Matthew and Joseph? I talk to Joseph every day and he does not seem to be worried about anything but studies."

"That's because I asked my father not to tell Joseph about this until he entered a university so as not to interfere with his studies, my father is implying a lot with Liza to Joseph's girlfriend."

So Jake was surprised again because Matthew cared for Liza since Liza was good at school and from a wealthy family, it was hard to imagine why.

"I can not understand this, I do not think I have any problems with Liza for without Joseph's girlfriend."

"I think so too, but my dad did not like her when he met her, he said that Liza's personality was bad and she was not a good girl and could bring a lot of trouble for Joseph if they got married when Joseph took over."

"So my father wanted Joseph to break up with Liza now, I tried to talk to him, but it looks like nothing can change his mind."

After hearing this, Jake could not say anything more, because he thought Matthew was right in everything he said, just that Jake did not think it should decide if they could marry or not, after all, Jake knew that Joseph liked Liza and Liza really loved Joseph.

Even if Liza could cause problems for Joseph in the future if she could not improve her personality as long as she loved and was good to Joseph, that was fine, but this was just Jake's point of view and he did not think Matthew was wrong.

So Jake could not give any useful counsel to Oliver that wanted the peace of the family, but Oliver did not seem to want to let Jake stay out of this situation.

"What do you think about that Jake?"

"I think if Joseph and Liza love each other they should get married if they wanted and be happy, but I do not think Matthew is wrong with what he said, only that our views are different."

"That's a shame, if you thought my father was wrong I'd ask you to talk to him to convince him, but I do not think we can do that, do you have any suggestions that might help with this?"

Now Oliver left Jake in an uncomfortable position, after all, Jake did not like Liza, if she did not marry his friend Jake would be happy if Joseph was not sad about it, but now Oliver asked him to help them get away, it was difficult for Jake.
