Chapter 205 A Little Crisis 4
Jake was second and so got $ 60,000, so he had almost $ 500,000 to invest in something, he had already defined how much money he would invest in Cisco shares every year and the rest was for something else.
Jake did it because otherwise he could be tempted to invest all the money he had in stock, that wasn't good for him, even if Jake was sure he would make it he might still need the money for other things.
Just like the house, he would soon have to buy for him and his mother if he was out of money he would have to sell his shares to buy this house which would be a loss for Jake.
As soon as the race was over Jake ate a stamina bar and regained his energy as well as relaxed his muscles a little, soon after the doctors arrived and Jake asked to go to the podium and get the reward before going to the hospital.
As Jake had still run a few hundred meters after suffering the injury and the doctors found nothing serious about Jake's right leg they allowed it.
Jake did everything he had to do and greeted German who just won, German seemed a little guilty of winning because Jake had suffered an injury, but Jake congratulated him sincerely because he knew that if he wasn't here German would still win.
After that Jake still went to the ambulance hospital because he had a lot of pain in his right leg, so the doctors quickly went to the hospital because for an athlete to find out quickly what an injury could save his career.
While on his way to the hospital Jake was thinking about what happened in the marathon that was just over, Jake was feeling a lot of leg pain and just insisted on staying at the awards to sort it out and be able to go home after leaving the hospital.
He didn't want to have to go places after leaving the hospital because he stopped doing some things because of the pain, but Jake felt it was better to feel a lot of leg pain than not to feel his legs within his past life.
Analyzing the marathon Jake realized that the main culprit for his defeat was himself, even though this unknown problem affected his marathon performance as it disrupted the state championship final.
Jake could still have won if he had been careful just as he still won the game in the final by choosing the best way to play, the problem with this marathon was that Jake had been too hasty to do things.
After all, he knew better than anyone that he had no need to try to improve his running time while he completed his first marathons, because with a time before when he was running in Chicago he could finish the marathon in 2 hours and just over 6 minutes
That time would be enough to break the records of many marathons or even the world record, but Jake forced to improve his time already in his second marathon and eventually lost the chance to win.
After all Jake already had enough stamina to run nearly 60 km at his previous speed, so even if this unknown problem got in the way of this marathon, he could still win easily.
The doctors gave him an ice pack so that Jake could begin to recover the muscle damage before he even got to the hospital, of course, Jake only got all this treatment because he was second in the marathon and even won in Chicago.
If you were an unknown athlete even if you had a more serious injury than Jake's, you might have to look for a taxi to go to a hospital.
After arriving at the hospital Jake had all the exams and it was found that his injury was grade 2 and he would only need less than 1-month rest to be able to retrain normally.
So Jake was released from the hospital to go to the hotel, they asked if Jake wanted to stay for a few days to recover at the courtesy hospital since Jake was a famous athlete, but Jake denied when he learned that his injury was not serious.
Jake has already arranged a plane ticket to return to Miami the other day, as he would have to lie a few weeks it was much better to do this at home.
John came to talk and say goodbye to Jake before returning to Miami, Jake thought John would be nervous with Jake for not winning this time and so John's company had less visibility than Tiffany's last time, but it seemed that he was wrong.
"With you, Jake? I was very worried when I saw that you had gone to the hospital after the marathon was over, is the injury serious?"
"It's nothing very serious, I'm fine, in a few weeks I will fully recover, so I'll be 100 percent when the national championship starts next year."
"That's good, so congratulations on the second place in this marathon, you got an amazing feat of being in the top 3 in two marathons in a row and this time you almost won."
"Thanks, I was sad that I didn't win."
"You should be happy about that, you're still young and you will have many competitions ahead in the next few years if it weren't for the injury no one could predict you would have won your second marathon in a row."
"But if something like this happens again you should give up the race immediately after having an injury, after all, you are still young and have many competitions ahead, besides you have to worry about basketball too and if it was an injury more serious? "
After saying that John left, Jake understood that John was right to say that, he should have stopped running when the system warned, after all, that it was good to have a system warning of injuries that many athletes would dream of having if Jake didn't hear and get hurt anyway?
Maybe the hormones made him too hot-blooded to not follow his experience and make these imprudent decisions.
As for John, it was normal for him to be very happy about it instead of getting angry only Jake knew he could easily win this race, for John and anyone it was a miracle that Jake would suddenly pop up and get in the top three in two. major marathons.
But that was a valuable lesson Jake needed to learn to be less arrogant, after all, Jake was different from other normal athletes, he just needed normal training and the system would help him improve his physical statistics.
Even though Jake was talented he knew that the main reason he got all he got was the system, so he had to use it better to be even better at what he did.
So Jake decided that he would retrain in the time he did before and would expect his endurance to naturally improve before improving his marathon times after all this was just the beginning for Jake in the world of athletics and he still had to try other modalities after that.
After that Jake felt like he was calmer after deciding what to do next, so he slept soundly and the next day returned to Miami using crutches as a precaution, Jake ended up not telling any of this to his friends and family so no one would worry with your injury.
Only Tiffany called worried after learning that Jake had been injured after the marathon through John after Jake said it was okay Tiffany congratulated him and was also happy that Jake finished the second marathon, this was unexpected for her.
So Tiffany remembered Jake's conversation again that she was aiming for the gold medal at the Olympics, so Tiffany was very excited to think so because it would be so helpful to her and Clara's companies.
After all, after learning that Clara's company could be sold in 5 years Tiffany and Clara decided to stop investing in the company and raise money to try to buy Robert's stock within 5 years.
Clara's mistake was that she was very anxious and used almost all of her money to buy another 5 percent of the stock and prevent the adversary from buying more stock, but it cost Clara 15 million.
Part of that money even came from Tiffany who in a moment of urgency took from his reserves and even the capital of the company, fortunately later this year with the dividends Clara and Tiffany will receive this money would be replaced, otherwise, Tiffany could even be sued for this crime.
Even so, they could only raise 6 million a year even if the company stopped investing as Clara could not take her father's share either, so if this year they had to replace the capital that was "borrowed" from Tiffany's company they would have chances of accumulating 24 million in 4 more years.
That means a lot of sacrifices would be needed just to buy these shares, considering that Clara and Tiffany's companies grew by more than 30 percent in those 5 years that sponsored Jake, they would lose the chance to grow at least 25 percent in those 5 years.
This made everyone very angry, only Robert who was primarily responsible for it did not bother at all, so even if this adversary company could not buy Clara's company they would have hurt them in 5 years.
Not to mention that Clara and Tiffany knew it would be impossible to buy back that 34 percent of the company would oppose even if they wanted to buy after all that 10 percent would already take 5 years to buy.
Clara's father was the one who was most sad about it, of course, they didn't know that Jake was just waiting for the right moment to buy these stocks, even if it's just to help them, even buy all those 44 percents who were in such pain upside them would be possible with Jake's profits.
When Clara learned that Jake was teaching she decided to talk to him after all these months, she already knew that Jake knew all about her situation through her friend Tiffany, even though she was annoyed with her friend at the beginning.
But Clara was just grateful for everything Tiffany was doing for her at the hardest time of her life, and Jake was also a very important person in her life right now, mainly because she knew Jake was responsible for helping her company survive this crisis indirectly.
