The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 222

At 3:00 pm, Felix and Jack sat across from each other in an all-you-can-eat barbecue restaurant. Jack grinned and commented, "Great minds think alike, huh? Neither of us had lunch, so this timing is perfect."

Felix looked puzzled and asked, "Don't you have work today?"

"Nah, I switched companies," Jack replied casually.

Felix was surprised, knowing that Jack had been thriving at his previous job and was on the verge of becoming a vice president thanks to Felix's influence.

Jack continued, "I just started at my new place this morning. I'm now the head of Stellar Group's Avesburgh office. It was a no-brainer, really."

Seeing Félix's stunned expression, Jack chuckled and placed a few pieces of meat on Felix's plate. "Eat up, Felix. I owe you a lot, you know."

Felix was baffled, knowing he had not spoken to anyone about this. He wondered how Jack had managed to land such a position without connections.
