Later that evening ,Eric strode into the real estate agency with a determined look on his face. The most luxurious penthouse, priced at a staggering $250,000,000, was a symbol of opulence he had only dreamed of before. The real estate agent, a serious-looking man accustomed to dealing with wealthy clients, raised an eyebrow as Eric approached him."Good afternoon. How can I help?" Mr. Samson, the real estates agent didn’t address Eric as a ‘sir,’ because he assumed Eric was there for a job.“I'd like to purchase the penthouse, the one valued at $250,000,000,” Eric went straight to the point without delay."That's quite an extravagant choice. May I ask if you're serious about this?" Mr. Simon was skeptical.Eric nodded, "Absolutely. I have the cash, and I'm ready to make the payment right now."As the ink dried on the documents, Eric officially became the owner of the sky-high penthouse. The transaction complete, he walked out, relishing the realization of a dream he once thought unatt

Mr. Walter, his anger evident, addressed Claudia sternly, "You've humiliated my guest. This is unacceptable."Ordering his guards with authority, he barked, "Escort them out. I won't tolerate such behavior in my celebration."As the guards began leading Claudia and Mayor Skarsgard away, the mayor, seething with humiliation, hissed at Eric, "You've ruined everything. You think you're better than me?"Struggling to control his rage, Mayor Skarsgard, his face twisted with anger, muttered, "I'd love to teach you a lesson right now."Feeling the urge to retaliate physically, he admitted, "I want to hit you, but I won't. Too many eyes here. Can't risk my reputation as the city's mayor."Claudia, attempting to calm the mayor, whispered, "Martin, stay calm. We'll get back at him later. Don't ruin things for yourself now."Feeling defeated, Mayor Skarsgard reluctantly agreed to let the guards lead them out. And he shot a murderous glare at Eric before leaving.The guards continued their escort

The following day, Eric rode another scooter to Harmony Innovations. He halted abruptly upon spotting Mason Hargraves parking and stepping out of his car in the garage. Eric attempted to avoid him, but Mason noticed and called out to him, closing the distance with a determined stride."What brings you here, Eric? Managed to replace your trashy scooter from last night?" Mason sneered, his tone filled with disdain.Eric, keeping his composure, replied, "Just focusing on what matters, Mason. Excuse me.""You think you can just ignore me? We have unfinished business,” A president Mason blocked Eric’s path."Just visiting a friend, Mason. Excuse me," Eric calmly replied and tried to step aside.But Mason still blocked his path for the second time and with a taunting voice, he began, "Visiting a friend? Probably looking for a job. Good luck, though. No one would hire you, not even as a janitor or the trash disposal guy."As Mason continued his insults, his phone rang, instantly diverting hi

Eric made a big entrance at the auction event that night, wearing a fancy suit that caught everyone's attention. His arrival was even more noticeable because of his amazing Bentley, a super expensive car.When he got out of the car, wearing a tall hat and dark sunglasses, Eric looked mysterious. People around, curious about him, started talking and guessing who this mysterious rich guy might be.Someone whispered, "Who is that? What an entrance!"Another person asked, "Do you know anything about him?"Someone else guessed, "He must be really important. Look at that car!"Even though people whispered and talked about him, Eric stayed mysterious, enjoying the mystery and guesses about who he really was.At the entrance, a well-dressed person took invitation cards and showed guests where to go inside, helping them find their seats.The person said, "Good evening. May I see your invitation?"As Eric presented his invitation, he was ushered towards the front rows, prompting astonished reac

Eric got into his car, ready to leave, but a strange feeling made him stay. He felt unsure, like he couldn't go, even though everyone else had left.Watching from his car, Eric saw Calvin's defeated men stumbling out of the hall, their groans loud in the night. Eric remained seated, driven by a desire to witness the unmistakable look of failure on Calvin's face.Suddenly, Eric's attention shifted as he noticed two cars waiting. As Calvin came out, something happened. People from the cars started shooting, making everyone scramble for safety. Calvin ended up alone in the chaos.In a quick realization, Eric understood that these hitmen were targeting Calvin. Without hesitation, he sprang from his car, pushing Calvin to the ground just moments before the bullets could find their mark.Calvin who was bewildered and startled, looked up at Eric."Stay down!" Eric urged urgently.The hail of bullets intensified, prompting both of them to seek refuge behind a nearby pillar. Eric's mind ra
