EP. 2 - Discoveries

JM.. Entertainment? I couldn't process what I just heard. My newly found grandfather wanted me, a poor and unsociable 20 year old uni student to take over a whole entertainment company? Really? Am I being tricked? I have no proof that this man is who he says he really is after all..

"Hello? Sweetie, are you still there? Don't tell me you fell asleep on me", grandfather says as he chuckles. As if I could sleep after this call. I could already feel my brain going into overdrive.

"Yeah. Yes, I'm still here", I whispered the first few words that I could think of. There was a short pause before grandfather ended the call saying "Alright, I know this is really sudden so I'll give you a week to decide. Look forward to my next call. Goodnight little one."

I sat there in the dark, on my worn out bed, in a daze. After the feeling of surprise subsided, I quickly jumped out of bed and reached for my laptop. No way grandfather was talking about the one and only JM entertainment. You'd have to be living under a rock in a far away and tiny village to not know what JM company is. Yes, it is that popular.

Also very far...

In fact, it is one of the most renowned companies where the most talented and well known artists of today come from. Although it is situated in a relatively small country on the other side of the world, its marketing strategies are so thorough that everyone has at least heard of the name or seen their logo.

Whoa, my grandfather did that, as I researched further and could see that a certain James Mo is indeed the funder and CEO of JM Entertainment. I also found a large variety of pictures of my grandfather on various websites. The fact that I could see the family resemblance in each of these photos was quite shocking, to say the least.

He, in fact, has the same unique violet eyes, with a thin line of emerald green around the irises, a characteristic that has ran in the Mo family for generations. Grandfather's violet coloured eyes looked slightly more faded compared to mine, and his graying hair was also probably jet black in the past. Just like mine.

He was a relatively handsome man, considering his age. Standing tall and proud in whichever event he had to attent.

However, in the most recent pictures I could see him gradually getting worn out, the number of his wrinkles increasing steadily and his public appearances becoming less and less. So far, everything he said during the phone call, coincide with the various articles on the internet.

The situation has just sunk in.

My grandfather has asked me to take over JM entertainment, which means that I would become the boss of the man on my phone wallpaper! Absolutely ridiculous.
