So Jake can be relieved, he knew that Matthew was a great man and business to be able to create his company out of nothing for more than 15 years, so even if he had made a big mistake in his past life by losing that change in technology now was different.
After Jake gave the way he had to follow Matthew could get the rest alone, in fact, Matthew was more excited about being able to participate in this new wave of technology, it could turn dozens of companies growing out of nowhere and in a few years would be more valuable than your company.
So knowing that in a few years he could even work with Microsoft that would be the most valuable company in the world in a few years encouraged him a lot, so Jake did not need to tell Matthew how important this was.
Jake just had to warn Matthew to be more careful and not end up losing a lot of money because of the internet bubble bursting in a few years, after all, if Matthew let go of some stock he could make lots of money but lose control over his company.
At the break from school Joseph went to eat with Jake again at the break of class, but today Joseph was quieter than normal, he heard from his father what Jake did the other day, Oliver thought it important Joseph knew why he would be the heir of the company in the future.
But Oliver did not know that Joseph would feel so strange about it, it was normal after all he and Jake were the same age and they were so different, Jake now also had a girlfriend, but besides playing basketball very well he was still the best student in the room with perfect notes.
As if that was not enough Jake still helped his grandfather with the company, and according to Oliver of that Jake may have saved his company from bankruptcy and have helped the company grow even more in the future.
That's because Joseph did not know that Jake already had an investment firm that earned more than $ 1 million and was also trying to open a restaurant for Eva, the difference between the two was too great.
Of course, Joseph despite being envious and admiring his friend still liked Jake very much and was only grateful, but after knowing about it he needed some time to get back to normal.
Jake, who also had a lot on his mind, did not realize that his friend was strange, he had to continue preparing what was necessary for Eva's restaurant, and Jake thought that this week or another Emily should have managed to get everything he asked for.
Besides that, Jake had to see some details if he could even participate in the marathons and participate in the competitions and if he could when the competitions would be made, Jake was determined to do it.
When Jake thought more about it he had an idea, he had seen athletics and marathon competitions on television several times, and all these times he saw that athletes often ran for sponsorships from sports equipment and sports drinks companies.
So Jake could ask if Tiffany or Clara would know anything about what was necessary to participate in these competitions, so he could find more information with their help.
So he called Tiffany because he knew that Clara must have many private problems to solve, Jake booked lunch with her at a restaurant because the subject matter was very important to talk over the phone.
Jake really did not know, but in fact the commercial he did a while ago on television turned out to be a big hit, Jake besides a talented player was very handsome in general and was right in front of the cameras, putting all this together with the small fame that Jake had already turned out to have gone very well.
And now Jake was going to be national champion if all was right in this and the next championship, after that Jake would go to college or straight to the NBA, so Tiffany and Clara were thinking of increasing the amount of sponsorship they pay Jake.
At first, it was just Clara's bet because Matthew asked and also because Jake was only in Middle School, but now Jake was near a bigger stage in basketball, so Tiffany and Clara who also had bigger ambitions for their companies thought about keeping Jake as sponsored even in the NBA.
Even if they knew that keeping a player in the NBA was not very realistic because they could not afford the high contracts that the biggest sports companies could afford, they relied on Jake's friendship for that.
So Tiffany wanted to take advantage of this lunch to discuss this with Jake, so she got to the restaurant and saw Jake getting up from his desk to greet her.
"Hi Tiffany, thanks for taking some time out of your busy time to greet me."
"No problem, I really wanted to talk to you about a subject."
"About what?"
"Then I'll tell you about it, how it was you who called me, it's only fair that you tell me what you wanted first."
"Alright then, let's have lunch first then we'll talk more about it."
So the two ate and talked about common things after they were in the dessert Jake spoke again.
"I'll call you here because I wanted to ask you and Clara a favor."
"A favor?"
"Yes, I do not know if you knew, but I've always been very passionate about sports in general and not just basketball, but the things I liked the most were running and playing basketball."
"Since I wanted to have a good career and also get a place at a good university, I decided to be a basketball player, and how I love basketball is okay."
"But after those years I learned a lot with basketball and even the training cannot make me improve my skills in a short time, so in the next few years I would have the freest time."
"So I decided to try other of my dreams and participate in a marathon like I always wanted to run, so I know that generally, sports-related companies know a lot about these competitions I wanted you to help me."
So Tiffany was very impressed by Jake's great love for sports, because even though he said he had more free time she knew that even if it were so others would not try to participate in a marathon.
"Of course I can help you with this Jake, I'll look for the next competition for you to participate, so even if you do not finish the race you can be happy about it."
"I do not think you understood me, Tiffany."
"What I did not understand."
"I have a lot of confidence in easily finishing an ordinary marathon, what I wanted you to help me was to know more official competitions and if they have any age requirements to participate as a professional runner."
"I do not want to just participate in a race, I want to win a marathon and qualify to participate in the next Olympics."
After hearing this, Tiffany thought she had heard poorly or that Jake was joking, but when she saw his serious eyes she realized it was not a joke.
"Jake you know that those who take part in these competitions are professionals who train for dozens of years sometimes, it's not something you can just try to win."
"I know all this well, I have the confidence to win a marathon, so please help me just to see if I can participate and when and where will be the official competitions."
So Tiffany realized that she could not convince Jake to give up on this idea and only agreed to help him, after all when Jake lost he would know how difficult it was, it was not as if it would cause some harm to let him become a professional runner if it were not to affect the basketball.
So afterward they separated and the contents of the conversation were so striking that she even forgot to talk to Jake about the increase in his patronage, but then she realized that it was okay for her to talk about it after she got the information she Jake asked her to check on the marathons.
So Jake returned home quietly, he had to prepare for the third game of the state championship, even if they were confident in winning it was not good to underestimate the opponent too much.
Jake waited for news of Emily all week, but she did not show up, which means gathering all this information was harder than Jake thought.
So the day of the third game of the state championship came, in the morning Jake ate Eva's breakfast, he thought that even if it was not for the fact that Eve got many friends and was happier in Anna's cooking classes, just for the so much that her mother improved on her cooking was already worth it to enter this course.
Of course Jake still cooked better than Eva, and that was normal after all even Anna said that Jake had plenty of talent to cook, many dishes Jake managed to do even better than Anna who worked as a chef in a restaurant for many years.
After that Jake said goodbye to Eva and went to the starting spot when Jake arrived almost everyone had arrived, coach Mike was going through a few plays with Carter who was the main player in the team's defense, Harrison also seemed to be concentrating.
Jake got ready too and before long everyone had come to the game, the coach called them all for another last-minute instruction and then the team went to the court to start the game, Jake realized that coach Mike seemed much more nervous than the players themselves and laughed as they prepared to start the game.
