Chapter 59: Bigshots.(1/2)
As soon as he left the room, people were staring at him as if he was some kind of odd entity, out of place, so although he was getting used to it, he still felt a little overwhelmed by the staring.
Shaking his head, he walked towards the parking lot. As he was walking, he felt someone click a photo of him. He didn’t even bother to look at who clicked the photo, he just walked with his head down.
His car was waiting outside, and he was feeling a little nervous, after all, this was his big debut on the world stage, and being a little nervous was normal.
As he reached the stairs, his silver-colored Ferrari came in on the valet drop-off. He smiled and walked toward the car, but he remembered he didn’t have any cash on him.
Then he went to the reception again. This time there was a different girl at the reception, so he asked for $50 in cash and to add it to his final bill when he leaves the hotel.
The receptionist was happy to do the service because Lukas just paid for his wine from last night and also 50$ he took in cash from the reception with his card.
The total bill was $150, as the wine was an expensive hundred-dollar one.
Lukas felt like this $150 was nothing, maybe he was too numb after spending so much money shopping that $150 was like some peanut.
Lukas gave the valet $50 with a smile. The valet even bowed like a butler, and he was happy getting a bonus all of a sudden.
Lukas drove towards the Veteran Stadium. After driving for a while, he realized he didn’t even know where the hell it was, so he asked a local, who first took a photo of his car and then pointed at the huge stadium, which was visible from where Lukas was.
Lukas thanked him anyway and went to the stadium. The stadium looked vacant, and security looked extremely solid. As Lukas’s car approached, the security at the door stopped him.
" Sir, today the stadium is closed, there is no game, and selective media personnel only." A man with a huge shotgun came and explained it to Lukas.
" Well, the thing is I am the player who is getting a contract today," Lukas said, although the security won’t recognize him, but he could take his chances.
" Wait here, sir, we have to check. What was your name again?" Security first glanced at Lukas, he did look like a VIP person, so they gave him the benefit of the doubt.
" Lukas Martin," Lukas said with a smile. He was still in the car, and in his silver suit and silver car, he looked very good.
" Sir, Welcome, sorry for the wait, drive towards the left, the VIP parking is there, and there are people waiting for you there to guide you in. The security after talking with someone on the walkie-talkie, came back with a big smile and said,.
Lukas just nodded his head and then proceeded towards the left. On the way, he saw many cars lined up and many security guards walking around.
After a while he reached the VIP section. There were five to six cars inside. The whole section was blocked by a steel fence, but when Lukas’s car drove in, the cage-like gate opened up automatically.
Lukas got down and perfected his clothes, as they were a little creased by being seated in the car then walked out of the parking lot.
" Sir?" A woman came with a bouquet of flowers in her hand and a huge fake smile plastered on her face.
Lukas just nodded his head and walked towards the gate, as soon as he did, he saw there were many people in suits talking, and he actually recognized two of them from his past life.
He slowly walked towards them as he was actually a fan of both of them in his past life, and they were no baseball players. Lukas was actually confused why they would appear here.
"Lukas, you’re here finally. Come, let me introduce you to the people you must know." Henry came in suddenly from somewhere, and he was wearing a suit.
" Wow, Coach, you are looking nice," Lukas said with a smile, but before he could say any more, Henry pulled him by his hand and made him stand in front of a person who wore a black suit and looked like a big deal.
" Sir, This is Lukas. Lukas, this is Chairman of the Phillies, Bill Giles. Henry introduced Lukas to the chairperson first.
" Aha, I see why they signed you. With your charisma aloneevery person looked at you when you entered the venue," Bill said with a smile. He was actually judging Lukas and was pleased because even if Lukas doesn’t play well later on, he could become a great showman with this much charisma.
" Sir, I didn’t sign him because of his looks. That I can promise you." Ed Wade chimed in, he came running as soon as he saw Lukas from far away because he was nervous, and seeing Lukas coming in, he was relieved.
" I know you are not dumb, I didn’t make you vice president for doing stupid stuff," Bill said with a strict voice. Although he smiled at Lukas, he was a strict person.
"Ed, introduce us too," a person said. He looked very formal, like a person who is running big corporations under him.
" Of course, Sir, Lukas, this is David Montgomery , our president and CEO, and David, this is Lukas." Ed Wade introduced them, and many coaching staff came in to introduce themselves.
Lukas was happy seeing the people were into him, he thought they would give him the cold shoulder or something.
Then Bill Giles, the chairman, touched Lukas’s hand gently and said, "Come, let me introduce you to my two friends."
Lukas nodded his head because who can refuse a chairman, and of course this man was a billionaire.
