Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

Jack's mind raced. This was getting more and more weird. He was now wondering why he would get some kind of emotions that he'd never experienced when he faced this lady.

It wasn't that Jack hadn't met with beautiful women. Not at all! Kelly, who was seated not far from him was considered a beauty. So, he wondered to himself what was so special about this lady in that, every time that he met her, his mind and heart raced.

Jack was still staring at her intently when he was forced to change his gaze due to Anderson's question. "Hey, Jack, what or who are you staring at?"

Jack looked at him for a moment before turning his gaze back towards the door. In the end, he found that the lady had already left.

So, to make this guy to stop spouting nonsense, he replied, "I was looking at someone by the door there. But, she's gone. So, there's no need for you to worry about anything."

"What do you mean by not worry? I have to worry that you may fail to get a partner for tonight's dance. That won't look good for you, considering that Benson is here. He would surely try getting into your head if you don't find a partner." Anderson refuted as he placed his plate on the table.

Then, he looked at the others that were busy eating while chatting. He shook his head and said, "Everyone here has a partner. Look at that fatty over there, look at that beautiful girl, she's his partner tonight. Look at that stick man over there, you see that plump lady? That's his wife."

"So, if you don't get a partner and everyone goes onto the dance floor, you would be the odd one out. Furthermore, if everyone is on the dance floor, then, everyone can see you, who's seated while others are dancing." Anderson continued talking while ignoring Jack's strange gaze.

"I had previously thought that there would be a nice lady that didn't come here with a partner. In the end, it seems that they all agreed to come in pairs. Whoops, I forgot. We agreed to come in pairs." Anderson showed a smile as he said these words.

Jack wondered to himself if this guy was here to help him or he was here to tease him. But at the end of the day, he had no words to say about this.

"What are you guys talking about?" William, who had somehow sneaked on them asked curiously.

"Jack doesn't have a partner for tonight's dance." Anderson replied with a chuckle.

"He doesn't have a partner? I thought that we gave him two cards!" William asked as he stared at Jack incredulously.

"Did you see someone sitting beside him all this while?" Ismael asked. He wasn't someone that liked to speak too much because he was a short tempered person.

And looking at how the group had suddenly began grouping up, Jack couldn't help but feel speechlessness striking him. He then thought to himself, 'Is not having a partner in a banquet a sin?'

"Oh, now that you mention it, I didn't see anyone beside Jack. All this while, I had forgotten about that." William scratched the back of his head as he said these words.

"Of course you would forget about others when thinking about the time that you and your girl will be twisting your bodies on the dance floor." Kelly snorted.

William could only cough in embarrassment because he knew whatever Kelly said was true. But, he wasn't to blame. The girl that had accompanied him here tonight was definitely a beauty.

"Anyway, Jack was looking at a lady. He said that she was standing at that door over there," Anderson said after he felt that there was nobody that was going to talk.

"You mean that Jack has taken a fancy to a girl here? If so, I can help him get her, even if she's married. She'll just have to divorce her husband." The burly guy, Luke Radvon spoke with a smile.

"What are you guys talking about? Do you know who's allowed to use that door? It's obviously the hosts of the banquet. So, better not think about that lady if she was from behind that door." At this time, Ismael reminded.

This brought everyone's thoughts back in line. As they thought of the scene where they wanted to connect Jack with the person that was related to the host of the event, they sweated a little.

"Come on, if even Ben has the guts to chase after a girl that's in the group of today's banquet hosts, how can Jack not qualify? I'm sure that even if it was a beautiful lady hosting this banquet, Jack can match her." At this time, William said with a smile.

"Yeah." The group agreed, making Jack even more speechless. These people were talking about him as of he wasn't there at all.

"By the way, my father told me that the host of today's banquet was a beauty. He told me that, with our family's current position, I cannot afford to offend her. Not even the Dante family can dare to do that." Anderson spoke.

"She's a beauty? Hehe, right on time. She surely must be Jack's woman. Hey Jack, we'll have your back as you get that lady." William smiled brightly as he said jokingly.

Upon seeing Jack's darkening handsome face, for some reason, the group got excited and decided to tease Jack even further.

"For today, the host would have the first dance before the others join in. So, Jack, better get ready to have the floor first."

"Right. By the way, the hotel was reserved. I'm sure that you can afford a presidential suite here. So, you can simply get her to a room in here."

"Hehe, Jack, I can help you get engaged in this banquet."

"What engagement? They should get married straight away. What woman can resist Jack's charm?"

Jack felt that, he should just get onto his feet and give these guys a few punches on their heads so that they can start thinking well.

He was just about to speak when the MC spoke, "Well, then, you guys should be ready as today's host, no, the hostess of the banquet today will be on stage in five minutes. Not more than that by a second!"

Upon hearing these words, people in the hall began moving. Jack and the others went back to their position. They immediately set aside the matter about Jack's partner and began thinking about the hostess. They wanted to see her in person.

A beauty, a rich beauty, a woman with a business mind. That was a good lady, a good wife that could help the family rise instead of falling.

As soon as they got to their seats, Ben came once again. This time, he sat on a chair that was on Jack's right. On Jack's left, there was Anderson.

Obviously, he was here to look for trouble with Jack. When he heard the praises that Jack had received from the others, he wanted to find a way that could suppress him.

But of course, he wouldn't go straight to the point. Instead, he decided to start from another angle. "Hey Jack, who's your dancing partner tonight?"

Jack was now getting sick of this. Why was everyone so obsessed with the dance? Wasn't it just a dance?

But all the same, he still replied honestly. "I don't have a partner for tonight."

Ben looked at him as he thought that he was joking. But upon seeing Jack's serious face, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Then, he couldn't help but chuckle.

"Are you serious? You came here today without a dancing partner? Are you going to play a third wheel?" Ben said with disdain.

Jack didn't reply. After all, what could he say about this? Upon seeing that Jack wasn't speaking, he said, "You are a man. The whole of you. You can't even hook up with a girl? How bad that is? I thought that you were so cool in that you could get a beautiful girl, a beauty that surpasses mine."

William and the others frowned when they heard this. Kelly spoke up, "Young master Ben, what has Jack's personal life got to do with you?"

"Hehe, not that much. I just wanted to know more about my rival in racing tonight. Turns out that he's nothing special. Just a person that hangs out with a group that are as him. True, birds of the same feathers flock together." Ben replied.

"Young master Ben, are you insulting us?" Ismael, the short tempered guy asked with a darkened expression on his face.

The others also didn't look good. On the other hand, Jack didn't say much but he wasn't impressed at all. This guy seemed to be one that was used to getting things done his way.

Only that, his target tonight was wrong. So, he frowned as he spoke, "Young master Ben or whoever you're. I agreed to have a race with you but I don't remember saying that you're allowed to speak about my personal life. So, as long as it doesn't concern you, you better stay out of it "

Jack was used to being angered back in Alfonso mansion. He had handled himself well. Thus, his voice was calm, not showing a trace of anger at all. But, the look in his eyes was enough to say that, he didn't like how things were.

Ben and the others were stunned for a moment. Then, Ben laughed disdainfully and said, "So what? Is there anything that you can do to me?"

"As for your personal life, I'm not interested. It's just that, my partner tonight is the hostess. In other words, it's like I'm the host of the event. In my banquet, I don't want some stray dogs."
