Chapter 105: Trap



Adam's school day was also over. As soon as he started to leave the school he saw Sophia coming towards him on the way. Seeing her Adam smiled.

And he said "I thought you had extra work like you do every day." Hearing this Sophia looked at the school. And she said "You could say that. But today I didn't have that much work." He was happy to hear this.

But then he saw. She was looking a little worried. Her expression was serious. And going a little closer to Sophia he started to look at her more closely.

His attention also went to Adam. And she immediately started blushing while looking at him and said "Is there something on my face?" After hearing this Adam also realized what he was doing.

He started to step back with a smile. "No I am sorry." They started to go together. Where in the middle of the way Sophia had to change trains.

Because she was going towards her apartment. Adam was sitting in this train. Seeing this Sophia after getting out of the train started to look at Adam. And waving her hand she said bye to him. The train also left from there.

And after leaving by train the smile from Adam's face immediately disappeared. And he immediately took out his mobile phone. And the reports of potential recruits that he had collected so far he immediately sent them all to Andrew.

Adam was now fully confident that Andrew would not doubt his words at all now about how he got the information. Finally he reached his family's home. Where as soon as he was about to press the doorbell he saw the door opening from the inside.

And he saw that his stepsister Annie was present inside at this time. Seeing this Adam was very surprised. "What's the matter? Are you alone?" Adam saw Annie. "What's the matter? Are you alone at home?" Adam saw that Annie was looking very scared.

Seeing this Adam stepped forward. And coming to Annie he said "What's the matter Annie? Why are you so scared?" After hearing this Annie looked inside the house.

And pointing her finger inside she said "Actually the thing is that mom and dad are not at home right now. So that's why..." As she was saying this her voice was trembling. Seeing this Adam was starting to get very tense. He was starting to imagine various scenarios in his mind.

He felt that maybe an intruder had come into the house. Then Annie said "I was watching a horror movie all alone at home." After hearing this Adam just stood there in his place for a moment. Then he looked at Annie. He said "What? What do you mean you..."

Then Annie looked at Adam and said "You have to watch that movie with me. I am very scared. I can't watch that movie all alone." Hearing this Adam was even more surprised. And looking at Annie he was about to refuse. But then Annie stepped forward and holding Adam's hand she pulled him inside. Adam was very surprised. And then they reached the hall. Where that horror movie was playing on the TV.

Adam was about to say something. But then Annie holding his hand made him sit down next to her on the sofa. After seeing this Adam was about to look at Annie. But then he heard someone screaming loudly from inside the TV. After which he immediately looked at the TV.

And he saw that a very scary scene was going on there. After seeing this Adam also immediately got scared. Adam was very surprised.

When he saw that Annie who was right next to him was also clinging to him. And Adam's eyes looked at Annie. Where he saw that Annie was still looking at that horror movie.

Seeing this he was a little surprised. But then a smile came on his face. Then Adam again heard a loud scream in this movie. But he did not have enough courage to look at the screen.

After seeing this Adam was still looking at the side. But then Annie saw him. And she said to Adam "No you have to watch it too." Adam was just thinking this. That how had he gotten himself stuck in this strange situation.

Just then his phone started ringing. It was in his pocket. He could feel the vibration. After seeing this Adam gently pushed Annie away.

He said "Why do you have to watch this movie? When you are so scared of it." Annie realized. That she had become a little too comfortable with Adam. But before she could say anything Adam had already left from there.

Adam came inside his room. And he picked up that phone. Where he saw that this was none other than the manager's call. Adam picked up the manager's call.

As soon as Adam picked up the manager's call the excited manager said from the other side "There is very good news. Adam our business can completely change from this." After hearing this Adam was very surprised. To see such excitement from the manager. Then Adam said "I understand that you are very excited. But you have to tell me everything slowly. Seeing your excitement I am not able to understand anything at all." Hearing Adam's words the manager also understood.

That he was getting a little too overexcited. Then the manager said "I am sorry. I got very excited. But you should listen to this. We have been approached by a major corporation. They will give us an initial three attempts to invest their money. After that after seeing our results they will decide whether to give us a long-term project or not." After hearing this Adam also immediately smiled.

He knew that if a big corporation from the Empire was showing so much trust in them. Then this was a very good sign. Although Adam was still very surprised.

That the manager had achieved this in such a short amount of time. He knew that he had given the manager continuous inputs. And also a lot of internal information.

But still according to Adam's own timeline their capital venture was still going to take a few more months to establish itself. After that it was going to do something big. But it was doing such a big work so quickly. For Adam this was a little surprising and also astonishing.

Then the manager said "They have given us a total of two hundred million dollars for the initial three deals." After hearing this Adam understood that they were testing them. To see how fruitful their venture capital firm was. Whether it could make them more money or not.

Although there were still some doubts in Adam's mind. But Adam did not tell that doubt to the manager. Then Adam said to the manager "Can you tell me how they approached you? Did you approach them or did they approach you?" After hearing this the manager became completely silent.

He was very surprised. He had thought that Adam would also be very excited just like him. But seeing Adam's skeptical reaction the manager felt very sad. But he also understood from Adam's words. Because the manager himself did not fully believe it. Then paying attention to Adam's words the manager started to think.

And he started to remember what had happened. Then the manager said "Actually the surprising thing is this. They approached me first. And they gave me this deal." Hearing this Adam's ears immediately stood up.

Then Adam immediately said to the manager "Cancel the schedule. Cancel it right now." After hearing this the manager was very surprised.

He had thought that Adam would be suspicious. But he had not thought that Adam would immediately refuse the offer. Then the manager said to Adam "But this is a big opportunity..." But before he could complete his sentence Adam said to the manager in a loud voice "Don't you understand? This is a trap."

Adam knew exactly what was happening here. He would not let his new business get trapped in this situation under any condition. The manager was very surprised.

He wondered what had suddenly happened to Adam. That he was telling him to refuse this incredible business deal.

Then Adam said again "Manager refuse him right now." Hearing the tone of Adam's voice the manager also understood. That the situation was not as simple as he was thinking. So the manager said "Okay I will call him right now and refuse the offer." Then the manager cut Adam's call.

The manager immediately called the man who had come to meet him. As soon as the man picked up the call he said "I was just thinking about you."

The manager was surprised to hear this but believing Adam's words he took a deep breath. He said "I'm sorry sir but we cannot take your order right now."
