“Boss, I’ve tracked down the account number. It links to a safe in the Bank of Paramount…”
About half an hour after Zachary left, Jerry finally tracked down the set of numbers written on the
notepad.
Not only did he track down the source of the numbers, but also Zachary’s identity.
“Well… let’s go and take a look.”
Jacob was certain that the deal was bona fide after discovering Zachary’s identity.
He stood up and walked outside.
“Where are you going, bro? Can we go out and have fun now?”
Just when he was about to leave The Pavillion, Janelle called him from behind.
Jacob had relocated his entire family to The Pavillion to deter any unnecessary hiccups during their
banishment attempt against the Quay family.
And everything would come to pass in two days’ time.
He was not sure about other people, but Janelle was a frisky teenage girl who was hungry for

The thought of staying idle for the next few days bored her to the core.
“Not yet. Wait for another couple of days.”
“No way! Why should I stay put, but not you? Just let me follow you if you’re so worried about my
safety.”
Janelle seemed determined to get out of The Pavillion for a breather today. She walked up to Jacob in
the manner of a distressed child. She pled with him to bring her along with him.
“That……”
Jacob was reluctant. He darted his eyes around to which Jerry and Gerald frantically looked away.
“Those guys…”
He whimpered in his heart for the unwarranted trouble he had to endure.
“Fine.”
He had no choice but to give Janelle the green light.
They were just going out to retrieve something. There shouldn’t be any danger in the process.
Eventually and expeditiously, he brought Janelle along to Bank of Paramount.
Bank of Paramount was undoubtedly the largest and most reliable bank in Paramount.
The empire was built on caliber as it thrived for more than a century.
There was a vault in the bank which was rumored to be the safest place in the entire Central
Federation.
The rumor had it that the vault was fortified and nuclear proof. It translated to the fact that the vault
would still be intact in the face of a nuclear attack.
Of course, that was just a rumor. After all, there hadn’t been any nuclear attack to attest the supposition
prior to this.
Jacob and his group arrived at Bank of Paramount. The former gracefully got out of the car.
Janelle scurried over to Jacob like a little child. And because of her childish demeanor, the no-
nonsense occasion turned into a frivolous affair.

“No. We are here to retrieve something.”
Jacob shook his head in negation and walked into the lobby with the busybody Janelle by his side.
Bank of Paramount was merited to be the leading bank in Central Federation. The elegant and posh
ornamentation alone was worthy of its title.
Janelle had never been to a place like this before. The escapade triggered her adrenaline rush.
She explored the surroundings curiously.
“Is there anything I can help you with, sir?”
When they walked in, a man who appeared to be a bank teller came forward. He greeted and asked
Jacob in a decorous manner.
“I’m here to retrieve something.”
Jacob casually wafted his hand, and Jerry immediately handed the paper with a set of numbers to the
man.
“Welcome to Bank of Paramount, our esteemed client. Please follow me.”
Well, it was their standard modus operandi to verify the client’s identity by their account numbers and
not their outward appearance.
