Chapter One - One Button Away
“Gloria, Gloria, thank god you finally picked up.”"My mom and I were in a car accident. My mom is trapped inside. You must use the app to unlock the doors right now!"Duane Wordsworth’s voice broke as he fruitlessly pounded the car door with his bleeding fist one more.His car lay overturned on the cold, hard asphalt, with oil and shattered glass strewn everywhere as thick smoke billowed from the wreckage. His mother, trapped inside, could be killed at any second if the car exploded.After call after desperate call, finally, the line connected. Music and laughter spilled from the receiver. “Duane?”Gloria’s voice sounded dreamy and distant. “What was that? Speak clearer."Duane gulped nervously. He quickly fought the urge to babble, forcing himself to calm down before speaking. “Okay, okay, Gloria, you have to listen to me carefully now.”“We’ve had a crash. My mother is trapped inside and the doors won’t open from the inside. I need you to use the app to unlock the doors. Please, y
Chapter Two - The Necklace
The party was in full swing when Duane arrived.Music pounded through the massive hall, crystal chandeliers glittering overhead like a thousand mocking stars. Men in expensive suits stood in clusters, champagne glasses in hand, while women in designer dresses laughed at jokes he couldn't hear.Duane pushed through the crowd, his clothes still stiff with dried blood and his hands trembling at his sides.He felt every eye turn toward him as he moved deeper into the room."Is that... blood?""Oh my God, look at him.""Who let him in here?"The whispers followed him like shadows. A woman in a red dress wrinkled her nose and stepped back as he passed. A man in a silver tie laughed behind his hand, nudging his companion.Duane kept walking. He didn't care what they thought. He didn't care what they said. All that mattered was finding Gloria and getting the money.His mother had less than twenty-four hours."Well, well, well." A deep voice cut through the music. "Look what the cat dragged
Chapter Three - The Black Gold Card
Duane's hands shook as he stared at the contents of the locket.Inside was a tiny photograph which was faded with age but still clear – his father, his mother, and a younger version of himself, all smiling at the camera. It had been taken years ago, back when his father was still alive. But it was the small folded piece of paper tucked beneath the photo that made his breath catch.He pulled it out carefully, his fingers trembling as he unfolded it.The handwriting was unmistakable; it was his mother's elegant script. My dearest Duane,If you're reading this, it means you've finally discovered the secret of the locket. I've been waiting for this day.Do you remember your sixteenth birthday? You were so fascinated by cryptocurrency, talking about it constantly, convinced it was the future. So I bought some as a gift for you – just a small amount, nothing extravagant. I put it away, hoping that one day, when you opened this locket, you'd find it and be pleasantly surprised.The passwo
Chapter Four - The Heir
Duane's vision went red. His entire body trembled with rage as he watched them move toward his mother's room.They were going to throw her out and discard her like she was nothing."Stop."His voice cut through the chaos, shaking with fury. Everyone turned to look at him.His hands clenched into fists. His jaw was so tight it hurt. Every muscle in his body was coiled, ready to explode.The supervisor's lip curled in disgust as his eyes swept over Duane's bloodstained clothes. "You. You're the one who brought this mess here in the first place. Your mother's time is up. We've been more than generous keeping her alive this long without payment.""I have the money." Duane's hands clenched into fists at his sides as he walked forward. "I can pay for everything. Just don't touch her."For a moment, there was silence.Then the supervisor threw his head back and laughed. The security guards joined in, their laughter echoing through the corridor like a cruel chorus."You have the money?" The
Chapter Five - Payment Successful
“What's going on here?” His voice thundered. Daniel Morrison's sharp eyes swept across the scene, taking in every detail. His gaze moved from the supervisor's bleeding lip to Duane's clenched fists, then down to the Black Gold Card lying on the floor near the wall."I'll ask one more time," Daniel said, his voice calm but carrying an unmistakable edge of authority. "What is going on here?"The supervisor's face lit up with relief. He stepped forward quickly, ignoring the blood on his lip, his voice eager and obsequious."Mr. Morrison, thank goodness you're here. This is a very serious situation." He gestured wildly at Duane. "This man's mother has been receiving treatment in our ICU without paying a single cent. One of our doctors," he shot a venomous glance at the doctor still standing nearby, "took it upon himself to authorize continued care despite knowing there was no payment."Daniel's expression remained neutral. "Continue.""When I came to rectify the situation and move the
Chapter Six - The Luxury Hotel
Something in Gloria's tone made Duane's stomach drop."What did you do?""I didn't do anything. I just... connected her with some people who were willing to help. People who could provide the kind of money she was looking for." Gloria's voice remained light, almost cheerful. "She's such a sweet girl, your sister. So willing to do whatever it takes to help your mother."Duane's heart was pounding now, fear and rage mixing together in his chest. "Where is she?" His voice came out hard. "Gloria, where is Maya?"There was a pause on the other end of the line. He could hear music in the background, laughter, the clink of glasses."I told you, she's fine," Gloria said, her voice light and casual. "She's just helping some people out. Very important people, actually. She should be grateful for the opportunity.”"What opportunity? Where is she?"Gloria sighed like he was being difficult. "The Grandeur Hotel. Presidential suite on the top floor. Room 3501." She paused, and he could hear the sm
Chapter Seven - The Choice
Duane's eyes locked onto Maya, his baby sister, he girl he'd protected her entire life. Now she stood there in that degrading dress, feet bleeding, her face streaked with tears and her body shaking with exhaustion from hours of dancing like a trained animal.He looked at the blood on the white carpet. Her raw, destroyed feet. His chest felt like it was being crushed. His vision blurred.This was his fault. He should have protected her.His entire body trembled with rage and anguish."How dare you," he said, turning to Gloria, his voice low and shaking. "How dare you sell my sister like she's some kind of object?”Gloria's smile didn't waver. She set down her champagne glass and looked at him with cold amusement. "Sell her? I didn't sell anyone, Duane. I simply provided an opportunity. Your sister came here willingly. I never forced her to do anything.""Liar.""Am I?" Gloria tilted her head. "Why don't you ask her yourself?"Duane turned to Maya, his heart breaking at the sight of h
Chapter Eight - One Phone Call
The room erupted with laughter.Gloria doubled over, holding her stomach as she laughed so hard tears formed in her eyes.Richard Brown chuckled, shaking his head in amusement. Gloria's younger brother snorted, and even her parents were smiling."Did you hear that?" Gloria's brother gasped between laughs. "He's going to make Mr. Brown go bankrupt! That's the funniest thing I've heard all day."Gloria's father wiped his eyes, still chuckling. "Young man, do you even know who you're talking to? Do you have any idea who Mr. Brown is?"Duane looked at him calmly. "Does it matter?"That set off another round of laughter."Does it matter?" Gloria's mother repeated, looking at him like he was insane. "Of course it matters! You can't just make threats when you don't even know who you're dealing with.""He must have completely lost his mind," Gloria's brother said, shaking his head. "The stress finally broke him."Gloria's father stepped forward, his expression a mix of pity and contempt. "Let
Chapter Nine - Protection
Duane looked at Richard Brown, who sat trembling on the sofa, then at Gloria's family staring at him with wide eyes."I made a phone call," he said simply. "To someone I know."Gloria's face flushed red with fury. She stepped forward, her hands clenched into fists at her sides."Stop talking nonsense!" Her voice was sharp and loud. "Stop playing games and tell us how you actually did this! Who did you call? What did you say? How did you get Mr. Brown fired in three minutes?"Duane looked at her calmly. "Rather than worrying about how I did it, you'd be better off tending to your own affairs."He gestured toward Richard Brown.Richard had pulled out his phone with shaking hands and was frantically dialing numbers. When someone answered, his voice came out desperate and pleading."Please, you have to listen to me. This is a mistake. A terrible mistake." He stood up from the sofa, pacing toward the door. "I've been with the bank for fifteen years. Fifteen years! You can't just... please
Chapter Ten - The Jewelry Store
The morning sun streamed through the hospital window as Duane sat beside his mother's bed, watching her sleep peacefully. The surgery had been successful. She would live.Maya was asleep in the recovery room down the hall, her feet properly bandaged now, finally getting the rest she desperately needed.For the first time in days, Duane could breathe.He looked down at the Black Gold Card in his hand, turning it over slowly. Nine hundred billion dollars. The number still didn't feel real.His mother and sister had suffered so much. They'd sacrificed everything for him. Now he wanted to give them something back. Something beautiful, that showed them how much they meant to him.Jewelry was perfect, he thought, women loved jewellery. He would get them something elegant and timeless that they could keep forever.But Duane knew nothing about luxury goods. He'd spent the last three years living as Gloria's live-in husband, scraping by on whatever money she allowed him. He'd never bought e
