2023-09-24 18:46:42“Lily, is there something you’re keeping from me? What exactly is going on at work? You seem more stressed than usual.”
Lily sighed
“My company received a new contract last month and there was an error in the calculation of the data. Our products did not meet the requirements so we need to compensate them with seven million. My company’s funds will not able to turn around which means that, I might need to at least get four million dollars of investment in a week, otherwise my company will most likely go bankrupt. I can’t do that to my employees.”
Monica’s eyes widened,
“How are you supposed to find someone willing to invest four million dollars in a week!?”
Just then, Lily turned around and sighted Kevin standing in the hallway, with a tear falling down her soft cheeks, Lily whispered.
“Kevin, I’m sorry to say this but Monica and I need some privacy. Can you please give me some space?”
Feeling distraughted by his wife’s pain, Kevin nodded
“Of course, I’ll go back to the bedroom. It’s good to see you Monica.”
Rushing back to his room Kevin promised himself,
“I have to help her. I will prove to Lily that I am the man who she married not the shell of a human being who I’ve been these past two years. I’m going to create my own empire.”
Taking out his cell phone, Kevin gasped when he saw over ten missed calls from his grandfather. Looking at the screen, Kevin asked himself.
“Why did my grandpa call me so many times? He hasn’t called me in over two years. The last time we spoke, he kicked me out of the family. I wonder if he knows about the money.”
Kevin saw his grandfather’s name flash on his cell phone. Taking a deep breath, he read the message.
“Kevin, I was wrong about you. Your family needs you right now and I know all about your recent success with Sunset Haven group. We really need that money in order to save the family line. If you don’t help us, the Williams family will collapse completely.”
Kevin looked at the message in a daze and it felt like, he was moving through a foggy dreamscape rather than the tangible reality around him. His flawless chiseled face was white as a sheet.
Just two years ago, his family kicked him out because of this same investment in Sunset Haven group. They left him with nothing just days before his wedding and now because of the same investment, his grandpa was asking him to help the Williams family.
“This feels like a sick joke.” Kevin sighed
As he was thinking, his phone vibrated again with a message from the same number,
“Kevin, we’ve lost everything after a few bad investments and we are going bankrupt. Please save us with your new money. If you do, I promise to make it up to you. You will be a member of the Williams family again. Don’t you want to be the man who you used to be?”
Remembering his wife’s desire for him to be his old self, Kevin nodded and texted back.
“I’ll meet you tomorrow and grandpa, we have a lot to discuss.”
Ever since Kevin’s grandpa kicked him out of the family, he had to numb himself to be able to deal with the pain of losing everything and sadly, it affected his marriage with Lily and his career.
But now that his investments has paid off, the tables have turned and he is ready to be the man he used to be.
Kevin thought to himself,
“Prioritizing what comes foremost, I need to find out just how rich I really am. That should be the first thing!”
He was excited…
Kevin had been waiting for this moment for years and right now, a whirlwind of emotions overtook him. His heart raced as if it were trying to catch up to the exhilaration in his mind.
A wide grin stretched across his pretty face, revealing a contagious happiness that seemed to glow from within. His normally reserved and cold demeanor gave way to unbridled excitement.
Kevin’s eyes sparkled with a mix of joy and disbelief as he pictured his success. The twinkle in his eyes mirrored stars and he felt like, the universe had conspired to grant him this moment of triumph.
He couldn’t help but let out a triumphant whoop of joy, a sound that resonated through the room and echoed his new-found success. A flawless row of pearly white teeth adorned his smile, glistening like pearls in a sea of rosy gum.
His smile looked so captivating and gave his face an enchanting glow, casting a shimmering spell that could draw gazes like a moth to a gentle moonlit flame.
His laughter echoed in the empty space around him and in that instant, he felt on top of the world. The peak of his hard work and patience had finally paid off and he couldn’t have been happier.
He knew that this was just the beginning of a new chapter in his life, a chapter that will be filled with opportunities and possibilities he had only dreamed of before.
Kevin could not help but feel a surge of pride swell up in him as he knew that, he would be able to help Lily’s company from going bankrupt.
The weight of financial uncertainty that had burdened him for two years has suddenly been lifted, leaving him lighter than air and ready to take over the whole Veridonia.

CHAPTER 197
After about five days, she would be like any other normal person, and she wouldn't be able to use medicinal herbs to regain what she had lost. I can't believe that this pill can do all that, Kevin marveled. His thoughts were interrupted by an unfamiliar ringtone. For a second, he wondered if there was a burglar in the house, but then he realized that the sound was coming from his pocket.Who would be making a video call to Penny in the middle of the night? Could it be her boyfriend? Kevin wondered. By reflex, he answered the call. A moment later, he saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her closet picking out clothes. Oops, didn't mean to see that, Kevin thought to himself.She looked very familiar to him, but he just couldn't place her. While he was looking at her, trying to figure out who she was, the woman turned around to see why nobody was talking yet. When she saw Kevin, she screamed and disconnected the call.That's when Kevin realized that she was the young woman whose gr
CHAPTER 196
"How much do you want?" His father asked him, as expected, Wyatt started to freak out. Mike said, "You think money grows on trees? Didn't I just give you that much a few days ago?" How could Wyatt Tripp not go ballistic? He'd worked his entire life to build up his business and now his son was just giving his money away. Mike was frustrated by his father's response. He'd only gotten in this situation because he was trying to get elected student leader.If his father wasn't willing to help, he might have to tell his classmates the truth. "What are you talking about, Dad? School’s going great. And my teachers are fantastic." Mike told his father, laying it on thick. "It's definitely a serious program."“What the hell are you talking about? When did I ask you about school?" Wyatt shouted into his phone. I don't give a crap if you like the place or not. "Don't worry, Dad, I'm doing great." He continued. "But it would really help if you could transfer some money into my account.""I'll tra
CHAPTER 195
"It wouldn't be a great idea to trick her like that." He really didn't want to make a bad impression on Penny. "No problem, Mike." Luther continued. "If Penny helps you pay the bill, you can use it as an excuse to get closer to her. You could even connect with her online to arrange to repay her and to get to know her better." Mike got really excited by this idea.He slapped Luther on the back and said, "I like the way you think. It's a good thing I brought you two guys along." When Kevin heard this, he quickly headed back to the VIP room. As he got to the door, Penny was walking out. Kevin came up with a plan of his own. As Penny brushed against him, he used the light touch that he'd learned about in the secret guide and took her phone and wallet.Let's see what Mike does now. Kevin smirked as he slipped the items into his jacket. With all his posturing, he isn't really that strong. Let's see him show his true colors. When Kevin returned to his seat and sat down, Mike and his two budd
CHAPTER 194
"That has to be disappointing. You think you're more handsome than me? Everyone knows that just isn't true." Kevin teased him. "What do you mean by that?" Mike retorted as he slammed his fist on the table. "Don't be angry, Mike. This whole thing really isn't worth it." Lionel tried to persuade his friend. Then Luther tried to calm him down. "Relax, Mike. You're absolutely right. Kevin must be jealous of you. That's why I said there's something wrong with this pill.""You still don't understand, do you? Both you and your father were cheated by someone. This isn't an augmentation pill at all. Kevin told them bluntly. An augmentation pill is more of a light blue color. Plus it contains some floral ingredients which gives it a beautiful fragrance. Take another look at the medicinal pill you just gave our professor." Kevin continued."It's obviously the wrong color and has no fragrance at all." They were all stunned to hear him say this. Even Penny reacted and stared keenly at Kevin. Mike
CHAPTER 193
"Don't be so modest, Mike. Who is better qualified to be our class leader?" Luther chimed in. The rest of the students just sat there quietly and watched the show that the three of them were putting on. But they didn't want to seem ungrateful. So they were willing to go along with the idea of electing Mike to the position."Since no one has any objections, then how could I decline? But let's just call it a temporary position. If anyone feels that I'm not carrying my weight, just say so." Mike declared as he raised his glass to toast his classmates.Professor Murdock stayed out of the discussion. And quietly observed her students as they drank their wine and socialized with each other. Meanwhile, Penny just sat quietly by the window nursing her glass to mute. Her classmates were too intimidated by her to go up and talk to her.While this was going on, Mike took Lionel aside and asked him to go down to his car and bring back a red gift box that he'd left in the trunk. Lionel came back a
CHAPTER 192
"Since you think this is just a bus pass, I guess I'll just put it back in my wallet." Kevin said as he started to take it back from the concierge. “Well, since you've already taken it out, why don't we give it a try?" Mike replied. He obviously didn't want to pass up this opportunity to make Kevin look like a fool. So he ran things up and added."Let's see what the hotel staff can do with it." While the crowd was laughing at Kevin, the hotel employees were staring in disbelief. They weren't sure how to defuse the situation. The employee who was holding Kevin's card started to get very nervous when she took a good look at it. During their training, all of the employees of the Whistler Hotel had been required to memorize the appearance of the Supreme VIP card. And that's exactly what Kevin had handed her. Cook had explained to them that there were only five cards like this in all of Veridonia. And they were only given to the hotel's most prestigious clients.The group of students saw t
