Chapter 170 - 170: 166: Reeducation – Part 2

Jason Wells remained silent, his face etched with profound sadness, complex emotions bactering words. Finn Lewis shrugged it off with a smile before sitting in front of Jason and saying: “Come on, brother, spill it. If you fancy her or if you want to take her to a hotel room tonight, just say it straight. It’s no big deal. I guarantee she will leave with you tonight.”

When Mr. Lewis made that statement, he said it in a matter-of-fact way. But to Violet Worthington and Ella Long, it felt like a bolt from the blue. Ella couldn’t keep silent anymore and said: “Mr. Lewis, we were just here for the company.” Mr. Lewis gave her a dismissive glance. “I know, but like I said, if my brother wishes so, you will definitely go with him tonight. I guarantee it.” And with that, he turned his gaze back toward Jason, ignoring Ella entirely.

Ella felt a wave of confusion wash over her, struck dumb by his carefree yet confident words as if she had just fallen under some spell, unable to escape Finn’s plan for her. Violet gave a wry smile to Ella, recognizing Finn’s assertive stance, and not daring to rebut.

Attempting to play with fire at one’s own peril is excusable, but it’s dangerous to challenge someone whose strengths you don’t fully understand. You may unwittingly provoke a person who you cannot afford to provoke. Ella, not a fooled woman, quickly came to understand this and stayed silent, her gaze unconsciously drifting toward Jason.

After a moment, Jason managed a weak smile, stood up and said, “Brother, let’s go.” And then walked straight out.

Finn chuckled before turning his attention to Ella and Violet and said, “Give me a way to contact you.” Ella and Violet exchanged a look, hesitating to share their contact information, but Finn’s unshakable confidence persuaded them to give Finn their numbers.

Having secured their contact details, Finn followed Jason out. When he reached the outside, Jason had already been waiting. After they got into the car, Finn drove toward the city center. The atmosphere in the car was quiet until they were almost to the house. Suddenly, Jason spoke up. “Brother, if I were to work with you, is there anything I can do?”

“You want to work with me?” Finn turned back to look at Jason before breaking into a smile and asking.

“Yes, but I don’t have any special skills, and I’m not sure what I can do,” Jason said with a bitter smile.

“Don’t worry. People aren’t born knowing everything. You can learn as you go along. However, you should consider it carefully. If you decide to come with me, you might start as a regular employee in my company, working regular hours, under the management of others. I won’t intervene. Do you think you could handle that?” Finn asked with a grin.

A struggle was apparent on Jason’s face, but Finn didn’t push him. Instead, he said, “Don’t rush with your decision. I’ll be here for a few more days, so you can let me know VOUr decision later. You’re my brother. Who else will take care of you if I don’t? But remember, if you follow me, you’ll have to start from the bottom. Though your salary may not be much and the job could be tiring, you can learn a lot. And of course, company rules apply to everyone. If you can’t stick to them, you might as well stay in Hello City.”

Jason didn’t respond, while Finn drove him near his house and then set off for his aunt’s house. Finn didn’t offer any advice or talk about principles, but he knew that tonight’s events had left a deep impression on Jason. As for whether it would leave a psychological scar, Finn believed that his brother wasn’t so weak.

Having stepped out of Finn’s car, Jason didn’t go home immediately. Instead, he lit a cigarette and delved into thoughts about the night’s events, until his phone rang, pulling him back to reality. Pulling out his phone, his heart stopped for a moment. It was a call from Lily Long.

“Hello?” Jason answered the phone.

“Jason, where are you?” Lily’s voice came on the phone. It was quiet where she was, apparently not at the bar any longer.

“I just got home. What’s up? You’re not at the bar?” Jason asked.

“Oh, I wasn’t feeling well and left the bar early. Just thought I’d check what you’re up to. Are you free tomorrow?” Lily asked.

“Tomorrow? I’m not sure, do you need anything?” Pondering for a moment, a clueless Jason asked. He didn’t know if he would be free tomorrow.

“Oh, it’s like this: I wanted to see the newly released movie, but I don’t have anyone to go with. I was wondering if you’re available?” Lily asked.

Jason was taken aback. A movie invitation? And from Lily? He had asked her countless times to go to the movies with him, but she had never agreed. And now, she was calling him?

However, a thought soon crossed Jason’s mind, making his face turn grim. He looked at the time on his phone; it was just past midnight. After a moment’s pause, Jason gritted his teeth and proposed, “I won’t have time tomorrow, but I do now. I hear there’s a midnight movie. Do you want to go?”

“Ah, that would be too late.. the girl I live with will probably be asleep by then. I

wouldn’t want to wake her up by returning home so late. That wouldn’t be right, would it?” Lily hesitated on the other end of the phone.

“Then why don’t you stay out? You can stay at a hotel,” said Jason. He couldn’t believe his own audacity, and after uttering the words, he was unsure what he was expecting to hear from Lily.

“That, well… Okay then, where are you? Are you coming to pick me up?” Lily paused before asking.

Jason didn’t feel the elation he expected upon hearing Lily’s response. The offer to stay at a hotel carried a clear implication. However, after spending an evening chatting with Ella and seeing the dancers, Jason didn’t feel the same desire for Lily anymore. He knew what could likely happen tonight, but the thought no longer appealed to him. Jason decisively said, “Ah, I just remembered I need to drop something off at home, so I won’t be able to make it tonight. Let’s arrange another time.”

And with that, Jason hung up. After ending the call, he gritted his teeth and looked at the new iPhone in his hand. He violently threw the phone to the ground, and stomped on it several times until it was in pieces. He then kicked it towards a nearby trash can. Once those actions were done, Jason turned and walked home..
