Inside the car, he grabbed the card packs and decided to move on to the second step of his experiment.
Buying the card packs was essentially a gamble but it was also a collection item. Which meant that it wasn’t all just gambling and he wanted to see what his system would categorise it as.
Out of the six packs, he opened four and kept two unopened before waiting for the clock to hit 12.
Money Spent: 2010 Dollars
Ding! You have received 4020 Dollars.
“Hah! Nice, so buying the packs and not opening them isn’t considered gambling. And what if I open them the next day after I have my money doubled? Will I have the money deducted?” he said out loud as he picked up the two unopened packs.
Without any hesitation, he ripped them open and tossed the cards to the side before looking up at his status screen.

The money hadn’t changed.
“At least I know what to buy when I feel lazy.” he muttered as he collected all the cards and put them on the back seat.
He headed into the supermarket and walked back with multiple boxes that said “Premium Collector’s Box”
It was just cards and Adrian had no intention of opening them at the moment. With 40 dollars still in his pocket, he drove back to the hotel and went to bed.

Letty sat in the hotel lounge and looked at her messages. Particularly one guy’s messages.
It only had the link that she had sent. The guy hadn’t even texted her a thank you.
She pouted slightly as she looked at the link, ‘He didn’t even tell me his name but I also don’t want to ask him… He didn’t ask for the timings either.’
As she second guessed her choice of hiring him, she heard his voice from behind.
“Lady Letty Garcia, we can leave whenever you’re ready.”
She immediately turned around to see Adrian in his perfect suit and he looked like an unpolished model.
‘He needs self care but he’s gorgeous already.’ she thought before shaking her head, “What? Lady? This isn’t the nineteen hundreds. Calling me Letty is fine. You’re a bit early but let’s go grab some breakfast. You’ll be joining me by the way.”
Adrian nodded and walked out but just as he was about to get to his car, she tapped his shoulder, “No, not that one. You’ll be driving this.”
“A Hercules Imperial?” he asked softly as he stared at the sleek, black SUV that Letty had pointed at.
“Yes, the S680 model. Do you think you can drive it?” she asked as she handed the keys to him.
Adrian nodded and opened the door for her but she didn’t get in. Instead she pointed at the passenger seat in the front.
He stared at her for a moment, looking confused before he opened the door to the front seat instead. A worker didn’t ask questions and he wasn’t going to either.
‘Usually they sit on the back but I guess she’s one of the different ones.’ he thought as he watched her get into her seat and then closed the door before getting behind the wheel.
“So, did you decide on what university you want to go to?” she asked the moment he turned on the engine.
Adrian shook his head as he switched gears to first, “Not yet. I have a few options but I don’t know which to go for.”
“If you pick business management and do well, feel free to contact me for a job. Of course, I can offer you a job if you go with the other options as well.” she said as she looked at him.
Unable to hold back her curiosity, she pursed her lips and went for it.
“Also, it’s rude to not tell me your name. You know mine and you also work for me. It puts me in a bad light if I don’t know the names of those who work for me.”
“Adrian Wolfe.” he said as he focused on the road. The car was extremely smooth and he couldn’t even feel the engine’s vibration.
Letty nodded and suddenly stopped talking. Weirdly enough, she even told him to skip breakfast and got him to drive her straight to the meeting location.
Adrian did as he was told without any questions and waited in the car while she did her thing. Hours passed and he took her to another meeting before driving her to a party.
“I don’t really wish to attend this one…” she muttered before she turned to look at Adrian who sat silently behind the wheel.
He was doing his job perfectly, not asking questions and answering her whenever she asked him something.
“Ugh why are you so professional!?” she exclaimed all of a sudden, catching Adrian by surprise, “I should have expected you to be calm but this is too much silence! Talk to me like any other guy would.”
“You have a party to attend.” Adrian said after he recovered from the sudden scare, making Letty glare at him.
“Change of venues! Fuck the party, I don’t care anymore. Take me to the hotel.”
Adrian nodded and began driving but he couldn’t stop himself from worrying this time. She didn’t look like her normal self.
“Did something go wrong at your meetings?” he asked without looking at her.
Letty raised her eyebrow and turned to look at him.
“You finally asked something. So even you can’t help but be interested in a beauty like me, huh?”
Adrian glanced at her and couldn’t stop himself from shaking his head slightly.
‘She’s childish… and adorable. I thought all the rich ones were stuck up, serious, or calculating but I guess I was wrong.’

The Director of Admissions’ office looked exactly like what Adrian expected from a man who sold futures for a living.Polished wooden desk, shelves lined with leather-bound books nobody had read in years, a framed photo of a smiling family on a beach, and floor-to-ceiling windows that showed off the Urizona campus like a real estate brochure.Behind the desk, a middle-aged man in a navy suit flipped through a file with a bored expression on his face.Nameplate: Dr. Maxwell Sterling.Adrian knocked once.“Come in,” Sterling said without looking up.Adrian pushed the door open and stepped inside, closing it behind him. He didn’t lock it. He just let it click shut and made his way toward the desk with calm, steady steps.Sterling finally lifted his head.He took one look at Adrian’s worn jeans, basic sneakers and simple shirt—and his eyes screamed _waste of time_ even before his mouth opened.“Yes?” Sterling asked, voice polite but already dismissing him.“I’m here about an admission to
Busy Collecting Cards
“Just a little worried since you’re acting a bit different from when we first met. Though, if you don’t mind.. can I ask you something?” Adrian asked.Letty shrugged, “Go on. Don’t ask me out though, we’re not that close yet.”Adrian gave her a sideways glance before speaking, “My gpa is 2.0 and I looked at multiple universities but I can’t really find anything good. Do you have any recommendations for one that accepts anyone as long as they pay?”“Well, there’s the University of Urizona. The prices range but for most courses, it’s 40,000 to 50,000 a year.”“That’s pretty close to where I live…” Adrian muttered as he thought about it and after a while, he hesitated slightly.Letty noticed this and chuckled, “Just ask, I won’t judge.”“Well, is there a way I can not pay taxes after paying my fees? I don’t wanna get involved in taxes while I’m studying.”“You don’t pay taxes when you pay for your education.” she said and frowned slightly as she looked at him, “Just tell me what’s on you

Adrian walked out of the supermarket with 6 packs of cards and 6 cans of caviar. He tossed them all in his car and spent his last remaining 50 dollars on his supper before he went straight back to the supermarket.Inside the car, he grabbed the card packs and decided to move on to the second step of his experiment.Buying the card packs was essentially a gamble but it was also a collection item.

Letty Garcia's Offer
“Not yet a student but I will get an admission soon. Just earning money so I can pay the fees without taking a loan.” he finally spoke after he swallowed the food in his mouth.The lady nodded and continued smiling, “And you’re paying almost 170 dollars a day in a premium hotel like this?”“I have my reasons.” Adrian said, not elaborating as he took a bite of his pancakes.“Everyone does.” she said and extended her hand outwards, “Letty. Letty Garcia.”“Letty Garcia….” Adrian muttered as he finally looked up at her properly. Previously, he had just taken a glance but now, he couldn’t stop himself as he remembered the name from his previous life.She was involved in a big incident, with the headlines saying “Millionaire Investor gives away all her money to charity.”And a few months later, she had disappeared. No more news, but there were rumors online that Adrian still remembered and some of them were confirmed thanks to a detailed investigation a few months later.The man she married
Problem At The Hotel
Adrian woke up the next morning and yawned as he stared at the ceiling.“Two Thousand Dollars in cash…” he muttered as he felt the stack of bills under his pillow. He had saved up money in the past but he only saw numbers back then due to him saving all his money in the bank.The difference of seeing mere numbers and having a thick wad of cash was like a difference of night and day. He finally felt like he was rich, which made him smile slightly.“Who said money doesn’t bring you happiness?” he asked as he looked at his own reflection in the mirror.He was tall, standing at six foot four inches, which was approximately 193 centimeters.His slightly long unkempt hair was long and healthy even though it looked slightly messy. The five day old stubble was hard to not notice as he was gifted with some good genetics.Broad shoulders, thin waist and overall, a face that was a mix of both cuteness and handsomeness.But even with all this, he had barely gotten himself a girlfriend in his past

Once she made up her mind about something, she never took a step back. If there’s anything you need, just ask me Adrian. You’re my best friend’s son.”Adrian smiled. It was a genuine smile that he
