I Went Back In Time With A Money Multiplier System

Sofia and Jack

Lily put her hand on her mouth and gasped as she saw Mike fall to the ground. Once Adrian left, she stared out the door and spoke to Bella who was beside her.

“He’s… changed. I don’t think we’ll be able to get any money from him. He’s not the same as Brandon anymore.”

Bella nodded beside her, “Yes, he’s different now. Kinda hot…”

She immediately turned to look at her sister who was giving her a judgemental look.

“Hey, he’s not bad looking and you know it. I hated him before for being a pathetic loser but now… does he act or look like one?”

Lily shook her head as she acknowledged her sister’s logic.

“I guess you’re right… but let’s go tell mom about what happened. He’s fucked once he comes back home.”

Adrian logged into a website on his phone once he parked his car in front of a supermarket. It was time to earn some money on his own.

‘Two hundred last night so I’ll be getting four hundred at midnight. If I spend fifty dollars more, I’ll get five hundred and that just sounds better.’ he thought as he listed himself as a driver.

Regular online cab services needed him to go through a long verification process and he also needed to have a more than 3 years experience in driving as he was under 23.

There were a few more problems which just didn’t allow him to use those apps.

Instead, he joined Chatbook groups and advertised himself in a simple manner.

For hours, he got no customers but at 2pm in the afternoon, he got a text.

Jack Newman: Hey, I’d like to book you from 4pm to 10pm. You’ll only have me and a girl as the passengers and we’ll be on a date so you’ll have to wait outside a restaurant and drop us back home.

Adrian Driver: Send me the pick up location, the location of the restaurant and the drop off location so I can fix your price.

Jack Newman: Sending.

A few seconds later, there were three links and Adrian opened them one by one before setting them as a checkpoint on his maps.

Total distance of thirty miles but there was a lot of waiting time involved so Adrian thought about it for a bit and quoted 80 dollars.

Jack Newman: Hahaha, that’s a really cheap price. Thank you for the discount!

“Huh?” Adrian muttered, looking confused as he didn’t really know how cab prices worked. Curious, he went on the internet and did a quick research.

Three hundred dollars was what he should have asked for considering the car he was driving. But he had already quoted his price and he wasn’t the type of person to go back on his word.

“Well, I only need fifty so I’ll just do my thing.” he said to himself as he pushed on the gas and drove off to the pick up point.

After arriving early, he leaned his chair back and took a short nap until his customers arrived.

Knock knock knock.

Adrian woke up to someone knocking on his window and looked outside to see a familiar face. In fact, he saw two familiar faces.

One of them was Sofia, the girl he used to have a huge crush on and the other was the guy she was with two days ago.

He unlocked the doors and let them in.

Jack was extremely silent as he got in and even after he made himself comfortable, he sat like a rock.

“To the restaurant?” Adrian asked as he looked through his rear-view mirror.

Sofia was a pretty girl, one who didn’t need too much make up to make herself stand out. But she also didn’t have too much of a presence.

She was pretty, cute and in a way, someone who didn’t like a lot of people around her.

It was only when she heard his voice, did she finally look up to see his face through the same mirror. Her mouth opened slightly before she looked at Jack and then at Adrian, her expression showing pure panic and guilt.

Adrian paid no mind to her as he looked at Jack, but the guy was even more of a silent nerd than her.

“Umm yes.”

For the whole trip, Adrian didn’t talk to them and nor did they talk to him. It was peaceful and a calm drive. After waiting for a few hours, he took them to their drop off point and parked nearby.

“Sofia, pay him eighty dollars. You should tip him twenty too, he gave us a huge discount and it was a nice ride too.” Jack said as he got out of the car with Sofia, who looked pretty annoyed.

They had gone to the restaurant way too early. Their table was booked for 7 pm but they had reached the place by 5 pm instead.

On top of that, she was being told to pay instead.

She didn’t voice out her thoughts and just took out her purse before looking at Adrian.

He didn’t give her any sort of reaction. No anger, no sadness, nothing. He didn’t even bother speaking to her. In fact, she even saw him smiling while he looked outside the car during their drive.

‘But he never smiled when he looked at me… and there’s no reaction even though I’m using the purse he gifted me. Is this someone else?’ she thought with a slight frown on her face as she gave him eighty dollars.

She was someone who hated tipping and Adrian didn’t press for money. He simply took his eighty and drove off before she said a word.

A minute later, Adrian turned on some music and sang along for a while before he found a nice place to park his car.

“I guess this is a good place to park.”

He got out of the car, bought gas for 50 dollars and just kept the 30 dollars for himself before he went to bed.

Money Spent: 250 Dollars

Ding! You have received 500 Dollars.
