Hollywood Zenith-Chapter 24 Flabbergasted Thomas-1

The announcement surprised me.; Apollo's voice rang out after the announcement to congratulate me. It definitely made my heart ease a little. I checked title effects--

Competent Writer: You have 75% higher comprehension power to write anything. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

I seemed to have leveled up twice, which confirmed my suspicion that earlier levels were easy to level up; still it took a whole week of blood and sweat. It will definitely be harder later; It will definitely take months to go to the next level.

I checked the next title; It was a passive one, which was surprising.

Aspiring Entrepreneur: It Increases success rate by 8% for any new business venture.

I think the system recognizes my determination to start the company.

As for the name "Alphabet" there was no such company, in this reality, there was a different company which controls search engine market called " Searchstat " which was controlled by "Motofiles Corporation".

Oscar called me for dinner, which was my cue to go to dinner hall. I got up and went downstairs.

I decided not to talk to my parents about the earlier issue and gave them sometime to digest my suggestion. Such thoughts floated through my mind as I entered the dinner hall.

------------------------------------

While Rothchild were having warm dinner, Thomas was in the cold office going through the last few chapters of "The Hobbit". His wife hasn't seen this side of her husband in many years; she knew better not to disturb her husband. She sighed and left him alone in his room.

Thomas, in meanwhile, was at the last chapter; he read the final line, and sighed; the story of Hobbit thoroughly amazed him. There were ups and downs which connected to the whole story thoroughly, like streams of river forming sea.

The story of Bilbo was fascinating, inspiring, which left you wanting more and more. As an editor he keen sense can see that this story could be further developed and expanded into several other books, which tell more details regarding the "Middle Earth".

He thought, " Genius, only genius experienced writer can create such masterpiece" but there was no pen-name for the author which made him perplexed. Just who wrote this? This thought kept him awake all night; He wanted to call Donald, but it was past two in the morning he barely controlled himself, seeing the time. He decided to visit the Rothchild Estate directly; it was too good of an opportunity to miss.

He just lied down with his eyes open, waiting for the sun to come up.

[Samuel's POV]

I had my breakfast and waited for my parents. I could tell they stayed up late to finish the book I gave them. I was waiting in the garden enjoying the morning sun when I heard my Arthur's voice calling me.

" Young master, Sir Robert sent me to send the summon."

I nodded and went upstairs toward their room. I had already calculated the whole scenario of whether I would fail or pass, but it still made me nervous inside; I knocked and entered directly.

" Mother, Father. Good morning." I greeted them.

They nodded. My mother said, " Come, Sami sit beside me." I agreed and went and sat.

She placed, held my hand, and said--

" Samuel you have been with us for about a month, but you must understand that whatever you do in the future of the present, you will always be our son. We will support your endeavor, but you have to promise us that you will not face hardships alone and rely on us in dire times. "

" Yes, Sami. We read your book last night in Bilbo is awfully similar to how you are now. We know we cannot always have you stay in our shadows; your imagination and talent is unprecedented for someone of your age and you will sooner or later leave the nest to pursue your own goals. We didn't expect that to come so soon, but regardless, we will support you. Just remember that the whole Rothchild family will support you. I will help you arrange your company and talk to Uncle Donald about your coorporation. I am not a avid reader of fatasy book but I know it will do well in the current market. " Father said as he ruffled my hair softly.

I teared up listening to the kind words and encouragement of my parents.

" I will do my best to make you proud." I said as they embraced me in their arms. I sobbed for a few minutes before calming down.

We started to discuss the book and how the company will be set up. We chatted for a few hours before Oscar came to call us down for lunch.

Last night, I thought about my the names which will be used as pen-name for all my works in future. It was a necessary step because of my young age; it will help me avoid trouble and remain hidden for a few more years.

I want to establish myself in the industry before finally coming out in the public eye. Only a few people knew about my existence and I would like to keep it that way for the time being.

I thought about connecting different words that represent me to form a name. I belong to Rothchild family and am hidden to the public.

I thought, and finally decided to go with the obscure name, " R. C Abel ".

Rothchild Cloud Abel, a pretty bizarre name, but it will do more good than harm in the long run.

Rothchild is self-explanatory; Cloud is for hiding, and Abel represents me as being a child of the family. It was very cryptic and simple if you knew the meaning.

We had lunch when Oscar informed me about a strange visitor and surprisingly Uncle called me to meet him.
