Chapter 238 Preparations for the Olympics 4


"That"s true, so could you take me home? I"m in no condition to drive or walk, to tell the truth."


"Sure, I"ll take you, but without drinking like that again, you almost ruined the "nice girl" picture I had of you if you have problems just call me to talk."


"Hahaha, so I was a nice girl to you."


"Still, just don"t drink like that anymore."


After playing a little to lighten the mood, Jake set a large amount of money on the table that should pay for all this wine and then supported Tiffany out of the room and they walked to the exit of the restaurant.


Jake took Tiffany in his arms after apologizing and put her in the car slowly, then he did the same when he arrived at her house while traveling on the way to Tiffany"s house she fell asleep in the car and Jake saw her crying while dreaming.


After leaving Tiffany on her couch Jake left, he couldn"t take her to her bed because it would be disrespectful and didn"t think he was that close to staying at her house taking care of her, so he could just put a blanket over she gets warm and then leaves.


On the way home Jake couldn"t stop wondering who this person might have rejected someone like Tiffany, he didn"t know the circ.u.mstances, but he didn"t think there would be many people who were better than her in Miami.


Of course, Jake didn"t ask Tiffany to say who it was because clearly, she was still suffering from it, just as he felt bad after seeing Clara frail after breaking up, he thought the same about Tiffany now.


But at home, he stopped thinking about it, after eating with his mother he went to rest to return to his training routine the next day.


A few more weeks pa.s.sed with Jake focused on training, Jake received from Emily some reports on the stock changes Cisco had had in those months, unlike before the company now had hundreds of millions of dollars invested.


So even if the report didn"t have to be monthly, she decided to do a half-yearly, it was much more exciting to see how stocks had appreciated at that time when profits were shown in the millions of dollars.


Jake asked Emily to send a copy of the report to investors, Jake even put an estimate of expected stock growth in a year, which for him was actually growth as he already knew the future.


Investors and Matthew were very pleased when they saw the profit and partly believed Jake"s estimated earnings on the stock, Matthew was mostly beaming so that it was possible for him to earn a 100 percent profit on that investment.


A $ 300 million profit was something he did not even expect before seeing these reports, of course, he would have no way of knowing that it would actually appreciate more than 5 times his initial investment.


Jake was now talking to Tiffany more constantly after dinner that day, Jake was glad to hear that Tiffany"s company had made a big profit last year, even though it had stopped investing in the company earlier this year she was getting the return from those more 3 years of constant investment.


Company directors pointed out that Jake"s popularity last year in winning the marathons has also helped his company make big profits like that.


This year Jake was even more on display after recording two more commercials, if Jake could really win a medal Tiffany"s company will still make a lot of profit even without investing anything.


Tiffany also commented that Clara"s company also had a lot of profit last year, with Clara handling things carefully that didn"t make the value of the company further, and that profit made everyone happy.


Even Robert saw no reason to complain even if the company was not investing anymore, after all in this way in five years he would receive part of the value of his shares in profit sharing.


The competing company that had a high percentage of the stock and also received good profit-sharing money, but they were not happy because they realized that Clara"s company had made more profit than they would in proportion to the size of the companies.


Of course, the competing company received a lot more money, but they also had tens of years in the market and a valuation dozens of times higher than Clara"s company, which made them more decisive in buying Clara"s company.


With that money, Tiffany and Clara received they were able to narrowly replenish the money Tiffany took from the company to lend Clara that she had to buy more stock, of course, Jake also strongly recommended that Tiffany never do something like that again.


Jake was very pleased to receive these reports, he wanted to advise Jeff Bezos not to spend money to buy companies that would go bankrupt a few years later but eventually did not risk risking the future even more.


After all, sometimes mistakes like this make the company cautious not to make similar mistakes in the future, and besides, a company that would be the most valuable in the world could not know what it was doing.


Jake was doing the training very willingly and was very exhausting because there was no apparent improvement in his training, he knew naturally that these things needed years to have apparent results.


But in recent years Jake got used to seeing immediate results in his training thanks to the system, it was hard for him to do such hard training without seeing immediate results.


Jake was also waiting for a contact from director Cameron Crowe, it was exciting the opportunity to appear in a Hollywood movie if he could act in just one movie he would be happy enough about it.


In the midst of his training, he was again asked for a seat that was unexpected to him, the coach of the football team had called Jake while he was doing his training with the football team as he always did.


"Coach Jim, did you want to talk to me?"


"Yes Jake, you"re really my lucky star, I need your help again, we have 1 game again the other week."


"How can I help?"


"Both of our team"s quarterbacks are injured again, this year we didn"t have much luck and even with the defensive line around QB being very good they ended up getting injured in the few Sack they got in the games."


"Fortunately all is not lost and as you said you needed to use our field for physical training this past semester I registered you like our team"s reserve QB so now if you can play we can still play for the t.i.tle this year."


Jake was shocked by this coaching revelation, he thought that using the team"s football pitch just to do physical training had no problem, he didn"t expect Coach Jim to have to register him as a player for that.


"But I thought the team was out of season now?"


"Yes, but as we are a relatively new and unfamiliar team we need as much training as possible, and we are also taking part in a small tournament made by the city to give prestige to the school."


Jake knew that there were rules for the number of games players played in the year, this was to avoid possible injuries and other problems, especially for the high school students who had the future ahead.


Clearly, the Elite school was not very respectful of these rules and they were playing too many "friendly games" to train the team and build a new reputation for the school, the result being that the team"s QB had been injured again.


Luckily Jake didn"t have to worry about injuries, the system said the Resistance statistic he had also helped prevent injuries from external factors, so he was much harder to get hurt by others in games.


So Jake was thinking of accepting the coach"s request and helping the football team again, after all, he was a little tired of just training for months before the Olympics, it was better that he just did this game to train a little.


"Alright coach, I"ll play this game."


"Great, I knew I could count on you, so let"s go to team play training starting today as well."


Jake accepted and went to play training again, the football team players already knew Jake well and were happy to play with him again, especially since they knew that Jake was not a rival for them to get a sports scholars.h.i.+p through the football


Jake still remembered all the tactics he had studied at the time he trained while on vacation while doing physical training several times a week Jake also paid close attention to his teammates from other positions.


Now he was more aware than last time who was the best WR and RB on the team, one of them being the tallest Jake had used as bait to win the friendly match during the holidays.


It looked like he was one of the best on the team and so Jake can fool both teammates and opponents by using him as bait, after all completely believed that Jake would pa.s.s the ball to him at the most important moment of the game.


Jake did simulated game training every day like last time, now it was much simpler as he had more familiarity and rapport with his teammates after spending several months training with the team.


Jake wouldn"t let go of his normal training and ran the 60 km every day even when he was tired of training, he felt that at least the strength statistic could increase after a few more days.


This was the one Jake most trained alone, after all, he would be left behind as he would gain some agility points and Resistance winning the competing marathons, Jake even asked the system what weight limit he could use as training without risk suffers no injury.


Jake was confident of increasing his strength stat for at least 3 in two years of training, and that was also helping with his pa.s.sing and throwing skills in football training.


So the days pa.s.sed and the day of the game had come different from basketball the game was later, so Jake left home without telling his mother that would play again.
