Chapter 472 Basketball And Business 6

Chapter 472 Basketball and Business 6

Jake went to meet Kate and Lily at a more elegant restaurant that was more appropriate to talk business, this restaurant could also drive away from the paparazzi who were trying to find out if Jake and Kate were really together and wanted to take a picture of them together.

This time Jake can't take Kate by car and went to meet them at the restaurant, they were both dressed elegantly, Kate was wearing a simpler blue dress and Lily was wearing a green dress.

"Good night to you, it's nice to meet you in person, Lily."

"It's a pleasure to be able to talk to you too, Jake, I've seen you a few times, but we haven't had a chance to talk."

"I wanted to thank you for taking such good care of Kate for all these years, she always speaks very highly of you and I know you have always supported her and helped her career to succeed."

"Thanks, even though I always liked Kate a lot it was my job to take care of her career and other singers too, it was Kate's talent and effort that brought her success."

"I certainly know that Kate is very talented and hardworking, and she deserves all the success she is having, but I also know that without a good businesswoman, her career would not have been so successful."

"I know that a businesswoman for a singer is like a coach for an athlete like me or a good manager for a manager, I only succeeded in basketball and marathons because I had good coaches and I only succeeded in my investments because I have Emily who helps me with everything."

Lily felt Jake's sincerity in those words and was grateful to him for the compliments, Kate was also very happy that Lily and Jake were getting along, Lily was the most important person in Kate's life after Jake now that she had no family.

Lily was like an older sister that Kate always wanted to have and Kate knew that Lily spent a lot more time helping her than the other artists in her company, and just like Jake said, Kate thought that without Lily she would never have the success that had.

Lily liked Jake very much and really thought he was the ideal boyfriend for Kate since she always needed to travel and could never be like ordinary women, Jake also always needed to travel and it would be easy for Kate to take a vacation when Jake was on vacation and they would have a few months together.

But Lily knew how many men there were who just seemed to be the perfect man, but actually wanted to deceive women and just enjoy it, even though Lily thought Jake wasn't like that because of the way he treated his mother, she had to know for the good Kate.

So the three talked happily without talking about any more serious matter, when Kate had to go to the bathroom Lily didn't go with her and stayed to talk to Jake more when Kate left Lily decided to ask Jake more serious questions.

"Jake, I'm going, to be honest with you, I had a great first impression of you and I think you are a really great person by the way you treat your mom, but I'm still worried about Kate."

"She met you the day her parents died and said that she had liked you very much since the first time you met, but my fear is that the shock caused by her parents' death and the fact that Kate stayed talking to you saved her life may be misleading her feelings."

"Do you really think that could be possible?"

"I don't know, I don't think it's possible because you guys saw each other again when Kate had already recovered from the trauma of her parents' death, what may have happened is that the feelings she already had only intensified because you saved her her life."

"So I have to tell you, I have been working in the world of artists for many years and I have learned to recognize when someone is lying, so I am going to ask some questions while Kate is not here."

"Do you really love Kate?"

"Yes, I can't explain if it's really love, but I can say that I never felt what I feel for Kate for anyone before, it's a very strong feeling that I have felt since the first time I met her and it just increased. last months."

Lily liked Jake's response and felt that he really was honest saying that he thought he loved Kate, with that she can now be much more relaxed because it meant that Jake was not manipulating Kate's feelings by taking advantage of her fragility.

"I'll ask you one more question, do you think about marrying Kate? Even knowing that because of her career she will never be able to live normally in the same house as you as other women normally do?"

"I think, after the last few months I got to know Kate a lot better and I respect her a lot and I love Kate, that's why I've been doing everything slowly in our relationship, this care is because I'm afraid of losing Kate, if I could I would ask her in marriage today."

Lily was really surprised this time, she didn't expect Jake to really think about marriage so seriously and from what she can see Jake could really ask Kate if he didn't know it was too early yet.

So Lily was no longer afraid that Jake would hurt Kate's feelings, only if Kate wanted to part with Jake that they would part, what Lily didn't know was that Jake already had a mentality of almost 50 years old.

So he naturally wanted to marry Kate as soon as he was sure he loved her, even though she couldn't live normally with him as an ordinary couple, Jake was prepared for that when he decided to enter the NBA.

After a while, Kate came back to the table at dinner and saw Jake and Lily talking quietly and did not know the serious conversation they had involving her just a few moments ago, so dinner went on smoothly and after a while they said goodbye.

Lily wasn't going to tell Kate about anything she had talked to Jake about and she was going to let their relationship progress naturally, and Jake was just happy that Lily had liked him and it wouldn't be against his relationship with Kate.

At dinner, they naturally talked about Kate's show and she was very confident that everything was going to be all right and she and her dancers were prepared to get ready in between games.

The other day finally came the big game day that Jake had organized, the sports media and basketball fans who were interested in that game were looking forward to the game that would start at 7 pm, so fans at home and at the Arena could watch the game and go home quietly afterward.

In the morning Jake was very excited when he woke up early to prepare his breakfast, Eva had gone to the restaurant and would stay there until 5 pm, then she would go with Anna to the Arena to watch Jake's game.

Jake invited several of his friends to watch the game, but the people who were in Miami were very busy with work and didn't even like basketball very much, they just watched Jake's important games to support them.

His friends from the university decided to travel to their house to see their family, after all besides Zack who lived close to home his other friends did not see the family for more than 3 years.

So only Kate, Anna, and his mother would watch this game, but Jake understood the situation of his friends and was not discouraged by it, the important thing was to play a good game and have fun knowing that he could help a charity with that.

After a few hours, Jake went to the hotel in his car, the other players would go in the cars he had rented, Jake had heard reports that the opposing team had also trained a lot these past few days on the basketball court that Jake prepared.

Jake spoke several times with the players of the opposing team to find out if they were well on their trip to Miami, so he knew they were well and prepared for the game, Jake wanted a game played even though he knew his team was stronger.

Jake arrived a little earlier in his team's locker room, he knew that Kate was also already at the Miami Arena with the dancers and the team that would prepare her show at the break, the Arena speakers and other speakers were arranged so that Kate to sing the national anthem before the game.

Jake was the first to arrive at the Arena and can see the uniforms prepared for his team by Adidas and some drinks from Gatorade were placed in an icebox, this made Jake very happy, his bandana and his arm protector were also prepared to the game.

Jake was very proud of the preparation he was able to do for this big game, this was the first big event he organized and everything was going very well, Jake started doing the warm-up exercises for the game.

This game would be in 4 quarters of 12 minutes each as it was in the NBA, the break would have 20 minutes for players to rest and for Kate's team to quickly prepare the court for her to sing two songs.

Since it was Jake who was going to prepare the game and the referees were warned it would be no problem to have another 5-minute break, Jake also asked the company he hired to organize a place for reporters to stay and the sports media as well.

Of course, for TNT reporters Jake ordered that the same access be given as it was on match days, as the teams would not have official coaches only the captains of the teams could ask for time and replace the players, and the captains would be Jake and Mike Bibby.
