After Divorce, No Second Chance – Chapter 20

This is too magical!

“How about this: come to my place for a meal, and I’ll treat you.”

“I’m going to swim first; you guys keep chatting.”

Raphael wasn’t a fool; he wouldn’t waste money on Mira. He knew several male customers who had bought dozens of sessions, and all they got was a little hand-holding and casual outings. If they wanted to deepen their relationship, they would have to spend more money.

“Lilian, did you see that? This guy is even less generous than that, Jacob!”

“Don’t be fooled by his usual show of wealth; he’s just a refined kind of poor!”

“Who wears such a heavy watch while working out, afraid others won’t know he has a Rolex? And who knows if it’s real or not!”

Seeing Raphael leave, Mira immediately began to complain in a low voice.

Lilian nodded in agreement. She recalled Raphael’s past behavior; he loved to show off, flaunting his Rolex watch. At over thirty years old, it was indeed quite low!

On the second floor, the equipment area.

Layla first familiarized Jacob with various machines, then had him practice for half an hour.

Although the intensity wasn’t high, Jacob still worked up a sweat and felt invigorated.

“Jacob, that’s it for today.”

“We’ll continue tomorrow; just schedule it via WhatsApp.”

Layla said while wiping the sweat from her forehead.

“Okay.”

Jacob nodded, “Unless something unexpected happens, it will be at the same time.”

“Alright.”

Personal trainers are generally quite free in the morning, so Layla was happy for Jacob to come in the morning; this way, there was more flexibility in scheduling personal training sessions.

“Jacob, wait a moment. Do you have time later?”

Just as Jacob was about to leave, Layla suddenly asked.

“I don’t have much going on lately; my main task is to lose weight,” Jacob replied, stopping in his tracks.

“In that case, let me treat you to lunch. There’s a place nearby in Buzzville City that specializes in light meals, perfect for a fat-loss period.”

Layla felt that since he had bought a hundred sessions from her and hadn’t made any demands, and he had been quite proper during the training sessions, such a good guy was rare, so she wanted to express her gratitude.

“Sure.”

It was already past eleven, and since he had only eaten two eggs for breakfast and had done quite a bit of exercise, Jacob was already hungry. He had been planning to go out for lunch, and now, with a beautiful woman like Layla inviting him, he was naturally happy to agree.

“Then see you on the first floor.”

“OK.”

After agreeing, the two went to their respective changing rooms.

The GetFit Fitness Center had excellent facilities; the showers in the changing room were comparable to small baths, with not only showerheads but also two soaking pools.

Hmm, not bad! 3888 a year is worth it!

Jacob silently marveled while showering.

Ding! Random task triggered: [Appreciation of the Rich]

As a wealthy person, there’s no need to appreciate other people’s things.

Task content: Check in at GetFit Fitness Center for thirty consecutive days.

(Note: Daily check-in time must be no less than one hour) Task reward: Ownership of GetFit Fitness Center.

Current check-in days: 1 day.

Remaining check-in days: 29 days.

Wow!

This is possible!!! Jacob, who was showering, was directly stunned. A fitness center this big would belong to him after checking in for thirty days?? This is too magical!

Hey, I seem to have a nationwide chain of fitness centers in the game.

This is truly a game coming to reality! Jacob felt a surge of joy; this GetFit Fitness Center must be worth millions.

Checking in for thirty days would make it his; it couldn’t be more comfortable!

He was just a bit curious about how the fitness center would be transferred to him.

After finishing his shower, Jacob walked out while drying himself with a towel and saw a middle-aged man sitting in the soaking pool, scrubbing the dead skin off his feet.

If he hadn’t received the task, he would have felt nothing about it.

But now he frowned, thinking that he would need to put up a warning sign on the wall after taking over; such behavior was a bit disgusting.

After changing clothes and drying his hair, Jacob took the elevator down to the first floor.

Then he saw Lilian and Monica sitting behind the front desk, slacking off, one playing a mobile game and the other video chatting on WhatsApp.

The front desk work was still too idle; they should add a live-streaming task as a promotional method for the fitness center.

Jacob silently calculated that this Jacob boss had already started planning the future of his fitness center.

“Jacob, you finished your workout.”

Monica, who was playing a game, immediately greeted him enthusiastically when she saw Jacob walk out of the elevator.
