Chapter 197: System Reward
Scarlet completed the purchase of the painting that cost $176,500. And the moment that she completed the payment, Jaden heard the system prompt, something that made him smile.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the optional mission. The host has been rewarded with 100 times rebate card.]
[100 time rebate card; It can be used to multiply income or investment by 100 times.]
Jaden had not expected that the system was going to reward him with another rebate card. He already possessed a ten times one, and with this one, he possessed two of them. Additionally, this one was way better as compared to the one that he had received before.
Jaden had realized something. Even though it was true that sometimes, the rewards would get better as long as the mission was a little difficult, for the optional missions, the rewards were completely random.
He would be rewarded with something of great value if he completed an ordinary mission, but at the same time, he could also be rewarded with something of a lower value. And right now, he had been rewarded with something of a greater value.
Jaden was wondering if he was to use the 10 times rebate card. After all, with the 100 times rebate card, it should not be difficult for him to be able to use it in the future when he needed money. And right now, he still needed money for the apartment.
Previously, when he spent $2 million, it could have been the time that he could have used the 10 times rebate card. But he thought that he could use it in another place, and get better rewards. And for that reason, he did not use it.

But now, with another rebate card, it was not that much difficult for him to use one of them. As he was thinking, Scarlet suddenly spoke up.
"Hey, what are you smiling at? Is there something interesting that I have not seen?" Scarlet asked as she looked around. It was clear that she was trying to look for something that was making Jaden smile.
Upon hearing Scarlet's question, Jaden responded, "Not really. I just remembered something funny."
Jaden did not say anything more, and the two of them got inside Scarlet's Ferrari f8. Scarlet was the driver, and the two of them headed towards a car flagship store. Jaden had yet to decide on the car that he was going to buy, but as long as he could find one that suited him well, and he could afford, he was going to buy it.
He did not know where Scarlet was taking him, but no matter wherever it was, he could buy a car there. So, he settled there, while thinking about where he could use the 10 times rebate card.
Of course, even though he was going to use it, because he possessed another one, Jaden was definitely going to maximize the usage of the card. Right now, the amount of money that he had was quite small.
It seemed that he would have to get more money later on. It had to come from either income from the company that he possessed 51% shares, or an investment that he was going to make with the money.
A few minutes later, the two of them arrived outside a BMW flagship store. After parking the car, the two of them got out, and headed straight to the store.
The moment that they entered into the store, they were welcomed by a salesman. Like always, the guy was enthusiastic, especially after he realized that the two of them had come inside a Ferrari.
"Welcome to our store…." The salesman started, before he went ahead to begin introducing the store. Then, he asked the two of them if they wanted to buy a car, or they were just here for viewing.
"I want to buy a car. Let's take a look first." Jaden responded.
The salesman was immediately excited, and he began leading them towards the cars. Since Jaden had not said the type of car that he wanted, the salesman began introducing each and every car that they went past.
A little while later, Jaden finally arrived in front of a car that he thought that it looked a little good. Additionally, the price was not that bad. It was the most recent BMW 7 series. The price was $90,000.
Currently, Jaden had a balance of $115,721. So, if he spent $90,000, it was not going to be much of a problem, considering that he did not have much of expenses later on. For his meals, they were all taken care of by the Johnsons.
Having already come to a decision, Jaden went ahead and completed the required procedures. About 2 hours later, Jaden had finally completed everything that was to be done. Now, it could be said that the car belonged to him.
This was the first time that Jaden possessed a car of his own. So, he was excited. Even though it was not as expensive as Scarlet's, nonetheless, at least, he would have something that he could claim that it was his.
When Scarlet saw how Jaden was excited, just by the smile that he could not hide, she could not help but feel a little displeased. She felt that it was not a good idea to have Jaden have a car of his own.
It was just that she did not have a good reason of stopping Jaden from buying a car of his own. After all, he possessed money, and he had a valid reason for having a car. In the end, she just did not understand the reason why she did not feel happy when Jaden had a car of his own.
This was completely different from the first time that she felt unhappy with Jaden using her car. But now, it was completely opposite of the feeling that she was having back then. She felt that it was a pity to have Jaden drive his own car.
'Well, I think that the reason why I feel unhappy is simply because he is no longer going to be able to drive my car. That's right. I am losing a driver.' Scarlet tried to explain to herself.
Of course, the reason that she was giving was not something that she could even believe it herself. After all, most of the time, she was the one that was driving, while Jaden just sat on the passenger seat.
Jaden did not know about what Scarlet was thinking. He got inside the BMW, ready to drive. But that was when he noticed that Scarlet seemed to be lost.
"Hey! Let's get going!" Jaden shouted at Scarlet, finally bringing her back to the reality.
Scarlet got inside her own car, and began driving. At the same time, she popped out her head from the window, and shouted at Jaden, "Let's see who is going to get home first."
Immediately after saying those words, she retracted her head back inside the Ferrari, before stepping on the accelerator. Immediately, the engine of the Ferrari revved, as the car suddenly shot forward.
Jaden on the other hand was left speechless upon hearing what Scarlet had said. She was having a sports car, one that was better than the one that he was having. And yet, she wanted to compete with him?
Was that even fair? And to make matters worse, she had even taken a head start in the race!
The maximum speed of the BMW that he currently owned was only 155 mph. On the other hand, Scarlet's Ferrari had a maximum speed of 210 mph. That was a big difference.
Despite thinking of all that, Jaden did not stop at all. Instead, just like Scarlet, he stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed out.
The two of them were currently within the city center, and the traffic was quite high. Despite that, with the skills that the two of them possessed, they were able to easily maneuver on the road.
When they got to the traffic lights, they simply went past, as the money that they were going to pay for fine was not something that they cared much about.
Of course, Scarlet was having a hard time as compared to Jaden, when it came to maneuvering on the busy road. Most of the time, she would have to slow down, before she could overtake vehicles.
Jaden on the other hand did not seem to care much about the presence of the other vehicles on the road. Instead, he was overtaking them left and right, even using the lane that he was not supposed to.
In just a matter of a few minutes, he had already managed to go past Scarlet. But of course, Jaden made sure not to get far away from her. At the end of it all, he was her bodyguard. So, he had to make sure that he was close to her.
Of course, he understood that by racing, it was putting Scarlet in danger. But Jaden did not believe that Scarlet was going to overlook the fact that her skill was not that good, and simply start driving recklessly on the road.
This was something that was proved by how careful she was, completely different from how carefree Jaden was as he overtook vehicles.
Finally, the two of them arrived outside the gate of the Johnson residence one after the other. Jaden was only a few seconds ahead of Scarlet, the reason being that he was making sure that the distance between the two of them was not widened. Otherwise, he would have been here several minutes ago.
The two of them entered the residence, with Scarlet left frustrated. After all, despite having a good vehicle, she could not compete with Jaden at all.
