Aiden rolled his eyes with a slight sigh upon sighting Melvin. He wished he could roll back the hands of time by not coming to the restaurant, as Melvin was the last person that he expected to see at that moment. As the son of a very influential billionaire in the country, and with his father making huge donations to the school that they attended, Melvin was a spoiled bully. He picked on students in school, and no one dared to say a word to him including their teachers. They were all afraid of losing their jobs, and thus, he always went scot-free with whatever wrong he did. Aiden did not say a word to him but looked at the table that Melvin had come from. Some of his classmates were having dinner, one that Aiden was not invited to as usual. He was not surprised. They hated him. Melvin looked at Lena and when he saw how beautiful and curvy she was, a mischievous smile appeared at the corner of his lips. "I'm surprised a beautiful girl like you would have dinner with a wretched bas

Lena intended to make the whole thing more interesting. She signaled the other classmates who were having dinner to come join their table. They all gladly did as they had been looking at the amount of food left on their table. They were intent on eating their fill because Melvin, as they thought, was capable of footing the bill. Melvin smiled uncomfortably as they all came to join the table. If he could make all of them disappear at that instant, he would have done so immediately. "Are you not going to eat?" Lena asked him as he watched the other students gobble down the platter before them. "I ate before coming for dinner. I am full already," he lied with a feigned smile. His appetite had disappeared the moment he saw the amount of food that he ordered. All that was on his mind at the moment was what the bill would look like. "Have I told you of how much of a generous person that you are?" Lena asked him with a pout as she touched his arm lightly. "Wait until you see the huge d

Everyone at the table went mute immediately after the suggestion was made as none of them had that amount of money to pay for just a meal. Even though they were all from influential families, they did not have the luxury of spending such an amount of money for dinner. "I'm sorry but my parents did not give me some money for this month's allowance," one of the students said, breaking the ice. As though drawing confidence from this student's excuse, the other students began to speak up."My allowance for six months cannot foot the bill," one of them said. "I would have helped but I have put the money in my savings and I can't access it now," another student said. "Can you all just keep shut?!" Melvin growled in a fit of rage. The room fell silent again as everyone turned to look at him. Melvin turned around but there was the waiter, right in front of him, and smiling back at him. "Please sir, I think that it is time to make your payment. Just a swipe of your card or some wads of

Once he was done with his assignment at the school library, Aiden stood up and headed for home. It was already quite late and he was also exhausted. He used the Uber app on his phone this time and ordered a ride home. It came within a few minutes, and he smiled as he got into the car. Usually, when he went out, he would walk or use a taxi. He never had enough money to pay for an Uber, but it was enough reason to be grateful that he could comfortably afford one. When he got to the apartment, he had a quick shower. He was still very full from the meal at the restaurant, so he did not bother about dinner. As he headed for his bedroom, he looked in the direction of Lena's room. There was a bright light streaming from below the door, and there was also soft music coming from the room. He smiled and shook his head as he headed to his bedroom. He knew that she was probably busy with her influencing job again, and he did not want to disturb her. As he collapsed on his bed, he was bored

Everyone waited patiently as they thought that they would get a reply from John Shark soon. They were expecting something that would beat what Aiden had just done, even though they knew that it was nearly impossible. It may seem as though John Shark has finally decided to let it go. One of the viewers commented and people seemed to agree with the comment. Some of them laughed at John Shark. He was thinking of what to do at the moment. There was a platinum package that went for five million dollars, but he did not have the money for that. Instead, he decided to go for the premium diamond package again, and selected six of it this time, so that he could attempt to top what Aiden had done. Once he sent it out, people applauded him, but it was so obvious that they were expecting more. Aiden smiled at this, as he thought that John Shark would go for the platinum package. It was the most expensive, but five million dollars was the tip of the iceberg compared to what he had in his poss
