...River City.South River International Residence.Pearl walked through the entrance with 911 dialed on her phone. She did not realize that there was a taxi following close behind.Excluding the driver, there was also a young man and woman in the taxi.“Where is this place, Sir?” The young man asked.“This is River City’s wealthy residential area, son. This is as far as I can go. That’ll be fifty bucks,” The driver said. “So expensive?” The young man asked.“Time is money! I waited for a long time.”“Alright, then! Thank you, Sir.”The two paid and got out of the car.They made their way to the entrance of South River International Residence.They were about to take a closer look when the security guard stopped them.“Hey! What are you two doing here? Move along, this isn’t a place you people can enter.” “Can I ask who that red Porsche that just drove in belongs to?” The young man asked.“Who? A tenant, of course! Who else’s can it be? Yours? Go away!”“It must be
“Minnie, you should call your parents to come here tomorrow too!” Sam told Minnie after ending the call with his mom.“For what? So they can drag me back? They’ve never agreed to our relationship to begin with.”“Are you silly? Your parents don’t agree because you live in town while my family farms in the village; My family isn’t as wealthy as yours. But now that my sister made a lot of money, I’m sure your parents will agree to us being together, and we won’t have to date in secret anymore!”Minnie thought about it and agreed with Sam.Thus, she called her parents.Her mother immediately started scolding the two of them, but she did promise to come to River City the next day.Sam laid in bed with Minnie in his arms as he said, “Minnie, let’s never go back. We can stay here in River City, I’ll have my sister buy me a nice car and house, then we can drive it and enjoy the view every day!”“But will your sister buy them for you?” Minnie did not believe him.“Not if I ask, but she
That was, until Marie. She was auctioning off a dance.Like Elsa’s song, Marie’s dance was also sold to David at five million. This was how David was, he was the kind of person that would repay kindness others had shown him tenfold.Those two had helped his cousin Lily tonight, so it was only right that he offered a higher price to buy their performances. Soon later.The auction event was about to end.After the last item of love had been auctioned off, the banquet was about to end as well.Just then, David raised his card and spoke.“Ms. Rice, I’d like to donate a song!”Ida was about to read the closing speech when she saw David offer to donate a song.David had spent ten million at the auction today, so it would not be right to refuse him.Ida allowed David to come up on stage.“Mr. Lidell wishes to donate a song, is anyone willing to buy it?” Ida asked.“Uh… I’d like to buy it myself if that’s alright?” David asked.“You want to buy your own song?”“Yes!”“Of co
The next day, David sent Lily back to school and transferred a hundred million into her bank card. He told her to spend it as he wished, and to tell him if she needed more. He even told Lily to disclose small pieces of information to her parents when suitable.Then he drove his Bugatti Veyron back to River City.Lake City was around a thousand kilometers away from River City, so David decided to just drive there.The car was high quality, the highest quality even. Thus, it made sense to be more costly. Coupled with David’s exceptional driving skills, the Bugatti Veyron sped across the passing lane.David’s car finally arrived at River City’s roads.He gave what happened over the past two days a lot of thought.Andy was the one who helped settle both his cousin sister’s accident at Dazzling KTV and stood up for her when she was bullied during the charity banquet.He might have a boundless amount of money, but money also seemed to be all he had.He could not rely on other people
Originally, David planned to leave the issue be since it was just a small scratch, and repair fees were not a concern to him. However, he did not expect to meet such an arrogant person.‘Fine, then. I’m not going to waste energy arguing with someone like this, I’ll just call the police!’The woman’s loud voice attracted many passers-by.It was currently the labor day public holiday, so there were many cars on the road. When they saw a car collide with the rear end of a Bugatti Veyron, many people moved over to the service area to observe.“What the hell, that’s a Bugatti Veyron! That car costs at least thirty million! Even repainting must cost a few hundred thousand!”“So expensive? Since it’s a rear-end collision, the BMW will have to take full responsibility! Even if they sold their BMW, they might not even have enough to pay for the repairs!”“Sigh. I can’t afford to pay the repairs for such an expensive car. I’m going to steer clear of cars like this in the future.”“Hey, he
River City.Pearl drove the Porsche 911 back to South River International Residence after work.Before she could enter the gates of South River International Residence, she was suddenly stopped.Pearl took a close look at the people who stopped her and found her parents, her brother Sam, and three other strangers she did not recognize.‘What are they doing here?’Pearl quickly got out of the car.“Mo, Dad, Sam, what are you guys doing here?”“Hmpf! How else would we find out that you’re actually driving a nice car and living in a mansion in the big city while we work ourselves to death at home?” Pearl’s mom, Leigh, said.“Mom, it’s not what you think. This car belongs to my boss!” Pearl explained.“Your boss? Your boss lets you drive his car every day? Why you, huh? Why not anyone else?”“Mom, can we talk somewhere else? Where are you guys staying? I can get you two hotel rooms!”“I’m not going anywhere! I want to live inside! Don’t try to lie to me, your brother’s been watc
“What? Do you want me to hit you again?” Billy roared.“You can beat me to death but I will not give you a single cent.”“You... You damned girl! You’re trying to anger me and give me a heart attack, aren’t you? I don’t care, you’re going to give us the money whether you like it or not!” Billy pointed at Pearl and scolded.Tears of indignation swelled in Pearl’s eyes as she shouted back at him, “You’ve always favored him just because he’s a boy! You give him the best you can afford, while I have to make my own money to pay for my university fees. What have you done for me?“He wants to go to university, but we can’t afford it? Fine, I’ll borrow the money for him and slowly return it by saving as much as possible from what I earn. I spend as little as possible on myself. Do you know what kind of life I’ve been living? I’ve even fainted at work from malnutrition!“My work only got better afterward, and I only kept a small portion of my earnings for living expenses. I sent everything
It was already dark by the time David arrived at River City.He would have arrived way earlier had he not been held up on the road.Exhausted, he returned to the South River International Residence and opened the doors to his home.Only for him to see Pearl with reddened eyes about to leave.“Huh? Miss Pearl? What’s wrong? Are you going out?”Then he spotted the people standing behind Pearl.“Who are they?”Pearl felt her chest tighten when she saw David.‘Didn’t he go home for the holidays? Why’s he back so soon? And now of all times too.’“My apologies, Mr. Lidell. These people are my family members. They came over to visit me from home, so I thought I’d bring them here to sit down. I’ll show them out right away,” Pearl replied nervously.She was afraid that David would be angry. Anyone would be upset to know that random people had come into their four-hundred-million-dollar house while they were out.“Where are you going so late at night? There are plenty of rooms here, w
