Chapter 91 Getting Paid
While Jin was still digesting the fact about Diana's father he received a series of several messages from Diana.
"Do you know what happened here today?!" The first text read.
"A theft! Someone infiltrated the branch office and destroyed several lab data and test samples which we all had painstakingly collected! Urgh!!! I'm so angry…we all would have to do it all over again now!" The second text.
"That means we'll have to invest another six months' worth of efforts to research everything once again and note down the required data" The third…
"I hate this bastard! What's worse is the fact that he only destroyed a specific department's data and mine was one among them! If it was everyone then that would have been bearable but I truly feel angered by this…" Just like this a wall of text soon appeared on Jin's screen by the time Diana's stopped typing.
Jin finally decided to text back, "I ain't reading all that, I'm happy for you...or sorry that happened xD,"
"Jin!!" Diana reacted with exclamations followed by an angry emote which induced a smile on Jin's face.
"Just jk, I read everything. You seem to be caught in a mess someone else made," Jin texted with a wry expression on his face.
"I know right?! I'm exhausted just from thinking how much work my company would make us do starting tomorrow," Diana texted back instantly.
"What's happening in your company right now? I mean how are they dealing with it?" Jin asked.
"They called the police for investigation and thanks to that we all got an early leave today…but well, starting tomorrow we might need to do overtime so it doesn't amount to anything," Diana replied.
They exchanged a few messages before Diana got busy with some household stuff.

Jin practised his acting skills and tried the few refinements in front of the mirror which the director suggested to him today.
At around half past eight when he was having his dinner Jin received a message on his phone.
'2.5 million Draks have been successfully credited to your account,' The message read.
"Finally!" Jin cheered for himself when he saw the message. He would finally be able to buy the things he wants.
'First things first,' Jin immediately finished his dinner and following that began packing his luggage. As luck would have it he had no shooting for the next two days. He'll be leaving this hotel first thing tomorrow morning.
'I'll finally be able to use that state-of-the-art gym again,' Jin thought to himself as he looked back on the few days he lived in the five-star hotel when he arrived in this city.
The hotel he was in didn't have a gym so Jin had only been focusing on body weight exercises during this time. As a result, he couldn't feel much progress in his overall strength.
"Phew, it's done," Jin sighed and looked at the time. An hour had passed and he was dead tired so without any further ado he embraced the bed.
By late morning Jin had completed his shifting. This time instead he booked a much more spacious and comfortable room since spending money was no longer an issue.
"Next stop, car showroom," Jin said as he left the hotel after settling in his new room. Buying a car had become a necessity for him because of how annoying it had become to take cabs for all sorts of things.
The salesman introduced Jin to a few cars and Jin finally settled on a black SUV after a while. It cost him around 1.5 million Draks. The deal was finalized and Jin. The salesman explained to Jin about all the paperwork he needed to do. Jin just paid him extra to get it all done with it.
Jin left the showroom after a while. He would be receiving the car in a week's time. The next step was to get a driving license. Although he knew how to drive a car thanks to William's memories he didn't have a license.
The salesman had given Jin a number to contact and Jin did so. Jin talked with the individual and got the required information about the driving test and a slot was booked for him for taking the test tomorrow.
Days passed and it was finally the weekend. Jin had received his driving licence by now and was only waiting for his car to be delivered.
Saturday evening Jin messaged Diana.
Jin: You'll be visiting your father tomorrow morning?
Diana: Yes, what's the matter?
Jin: I'll come as well.
Diana: Really?!
Jin: I shouldn't?
Diana: No that's not what I meant. Please come. I'd be the happiest if you did.
Jin: That's settled then. See you tomorrow.
Diana: Yeah, byes ^^
'I do not how long this is going to take…' Jin mused. It couldn't be sent when Diana's father would be in a state where he could recall his past with my father. From what Jin had researched online so far, these bouts of lucidity were rare in late-stage patients like Mr Woods.
"Thankfully I can afford to wait," Jin muttered to himself and went back to practising his acting skills.
Things have been going well for him. He had found a profession he was naturally good at, acting. Thanks, to it his money problems were sorted. It even paid more than hitman jobs with almost no risks…this made him feel a bit guilty for taking so many lives for such a paltry sum of money until now.
'Well, it can't be helped. I also needed those Kill Points to buy things from the system.' Jin thought. He didn't blame the system because without it he wouldn't have reached so far in his life. He would also have never discovered the truth behind his parent's death.
After being done with his acting practice Jin went to the hotel's gym for a late-night session. He had started doing twice a day to improve his physical state as fast as possible since he had been lagging behind in that department for a long time.
"Nothing beats a late-night leg session," Jin put on his ear pods and started training to phonk music.
