An Instant Zillionaire Chapter 181
As Brad walked on, he dreaded the interrogation he would face with Rose. But to his surprise and relief, the lady just walked past him, her head hung down as she tapped on her phone.Rose was just rushing to go make a phone call. "Hey," she said into the phone after the call was picked up.His phone vibrated in his hands. When he looked at it, it was another text from Claire again. The text read, "Where are you?!!!"Claire had anxiously called Brad an hour ago when he still wasn't at the party yet that he was late and since then she had been religiously following up with texts; long and short ones.When Brad steps inside the room, the party seems to already be in full swing. There were people everywhere. His eyes searched the room, in search of the person that had brought him there but instead of spotting her amongst the crowd, his eyes only clashed with the few ones that had made it their job to stare at him.Just then his phone rang out. It was Claire. He immediately answered the ca

"Hey Claire," Claire's manager rose to his feet and pulled Claire into a hug. His eyes raked over her, "You look stunning."Claire blushed. "Thank you." Then her eyes took in his expensive suit, usual cologne, and equally expensive shoes and she almost rolled her eyes. It used to mean a lot to her before but now, she knew that his outfit altogether was not worth the door to Brad's apartment. But she smiled anyway, "You don't look bad yourself, Gary."Gary spread his arms, his ego getting bloated. He had intentionally worn one of his most expensive tuxedos. Then he tapped her lightly on her bare arm, "Happy birthday once again." He picked up his wineglass from the table and raised it. "Cheers to an equally stunning year." Claire chuckled delightedly, "Thank you, Gary." She clasped her hands together, "And thank you for coming. I really appreciate it.""Come on. It's my pleasure." Gary's gaze suddenly slid to the man beside Claire. He nodded slightly toward his direction wondering who

Brad was a few feet away from his car when he pressed the soft button on his car's remote to unlock the car.He tucked the key in his pocket and opened the back door where he had stacked the gifts. He reached for the ridiculously expensive necklace first and tucked it in his pocket. Then he reached for the two bouquets she had insisted on - each had cost six hundred dollars. Brad remembered asking the sales boy who had attended to them that day if the flowers had other use than being a fancy package to make girls blush ridiculously but Claire had nudged him.He steadied the big bouquets in his hand then lastly reached for the shoebox and teddy bear. Surprisingly, they didn't cost that much.Balancing everything in his arms, he kicked the door close and managed to lock the car. As he made his way back to the venue of the party, the shoebox fell and he cussed under his breath as he squatted down to pick it up.As he started to rise, the sound of footsteps reached his ears before his ga

Immediately after he said that the man closest to him rushed at Brad, his broken pipe with the pointy edge was raised in the air, ready to strike Brad but his breath was knocked out as Brad sent a punch in his guts. The pipe fell from his hand and he let out a loud painful groan as he was thrown back.The others shook their heads at him. He was the second in command to their leader and they wondered how he had let Brad defeat him that easily. With a shout, they rushed toward him one after the other but Brad expertly sent a punch up their ass or in their face that kept sending them reeling back. The men who hadn't attacked yet and the ones who had managed to get back on their feet saw that Brad might turn out to be more of a challenge than they had thought so they decided to all go at him at once.Brad's muscles bulged. He saw that only his punches would not keep them away again so he picked up the broken pipe and baseball bat that had fallen. Brad's head turned from side to side as

Claire turned her head from side to side. She had first been worrying that it was taking Brad so long to get back then she noticed that her parents were nowhere to be found amongst the guests in the room."Are you okay?" Gary followed her gaze but didn't see anything peculiar.Claire turned to Gary. She managed a smile. "I will be right back."Gary's gaze followed her for a while as she walked toward a set of tables and chairs huddled together then he shrugged and turned away.Claire's brows were creased as she walked around the room for a few seconds. "Where had they gone?" She wondered where her parents were because it was rare that on an occasion like this, they would leave without informing her, particularly since it was her birthday.She decided to check outside.On getting outside, her gaze immediately falls on her parents’ back. They were on the balcony that extended from the entranceway. She saw that Rose was also with them. She hadn't even noticed that Rose was not in the roo

Claire's eyes gleamed as she pulled away from Brad. She was filled with sheer joy as she picked the earrings from the box. "I'll put it on," she said, already putting on the earrings. "How do I look?" She held her hair to the back so that Brad would be able to see the jewelry on her. Brad took in her grin and the glow on her face. He hadn't expected that the gift would make her this happy. He had just gotten it as an afterthought. "Brad?" He shifted his gaze to her ear when he heard his name. The earring was fine and it looked okay on her, he guessed. Well, he didn't know and he didn't care. He shrugged, "I guess it's okay. It looks fine on you." Brad saw Claire's cheeks turn pink even though her smile dimmed a little. "Thank you," she muttered. She had been expecting a more grand compliment but she guessed he was still coming around with the idea that he liked her. Claire glimpsed her parents still watching them from the entranceway. She could see their expressions but she co

Gary stood upright, removed the cigarette from between his lips, and squashed it with his shoe as he smoothed his jacket.He then made his way to the small commotion ahead."You know what?" Claire furiously turned to her mom, "Rose is saying all of this because she's so green with envy that I have a man and she doesn't!"Rose drew back and laughed, "Oh please, Claire, I'd rather die a spinster and spend the rest of my life with a pauper!" She eyed Brad as she completed her sentence.Claire was infuriated and she just wished she could blurt it out that Brad was not a pauper. If only they knew his financial status, they would all bow to him. "And how w-" "Now, Claire, you shouldn't have gone this far."Claire's retort was interrupted when a deep voice reached them. They all turned to see Gary walking toward them."What are you saying?" Claire's brows were deeply creased as she looked at Gary. Claire wondered why he was even outside.Gary stopped before Claire's parents and flashed them

"Shut it right there, Claire," Claire's mother burst out sternly. "Why will you have a man like Gary and still insist on a good for nothing?!" She passed Brad a scowl."Can you not see the stark difference, Claire?" Claire's father held her shoulders tenderly and tried to speak sense into his daughter's head. "Can you not see that Gary is responsible? Have you ever caught him in a fight or the company of criminals?""Dad," Claire furiously shrugged his hands off her shoulders, "What are you insinuating? That my boyfriend is a criminal?"Claire's mother closed her eyes in frustration. When she opened them back, she shouted at Claire. "Will you stop calling him your boyfriend?!""I will not stop because he is! Brad is my boyfriend!""So you want to spend the rest of your life struggling to get your basic needs, is that what you want?" Her mother held her gaze, "Your father and I have always made sure you have everything. Now you want to leave a very suitable and successful man and go fo

Everyone was shocked.There was no way it would be Brad. Brad was poor and Amazing Fighter was right. It was two different personalities.“What! Brad is Amazing Fighter?” Kelvin asked, even more surprised.David couldn't talk. Shock kept him motionless and speechless for a long time.“No! No way!” Someone said suddenly amidst the silence. “Brad can never be Amazing Fighter. It's not possible!”“Yes, it's not!” Someone else chimed in. “There's a mistake somewhere!”And soon, everyone was already shouting about it.Suddenly, their phones beeped. They all stopped what they were doing and started pulling out their phones.It was a notification from Amazing Fighter. He just uploaded his picture.Everyone clicked on it and the picture that showed up on their screen made them shocked for another minute. It was still Brad.“Wait, are you saying that Brad pretended to be poor? And that was why Amazing Fighter has been hiding? Because we would have known it was Brad if he had shown his face ear

Brad pulled into the parking lot while Sophia was on a call.“Alright,” Sophia hung up and looked at Brad. “I have to go see my friends,” she announced, with a smile.Brad nodded once. “I will pick you up later then.”Sophia reciprocated his smile and proceeded to open the door. She stopped and turned to Brad again. “There's actually something I want to tell you.”Brad gave her full attention. “Yes, what's it about?”“Well, the thing is I won the princess of the year due to Amazing Fighter help. So, I didn't want you to think I kept it away from you when you heard the announcement,” she explained.Brad smiled. He already knew anyway. But he appreciates her talking.“I knew you would get it actually. You are the best candidate for you.”Sophia smiled again, feeling impressed with herself. She leaned forward and captured Brad's lips in a quick kiss.Then, she rushed out without waiting for him to talk.Brad was shocked because he didn't expect her to kiss him, especially since he didn'

Sophia hummed as she went about with getting ready for school. She was so happy that everything was over. She was even overjoyed that Brad was picking her up. She loved to be around him. If it wasn't for the fact that it would look even weirder, she could have concluded that she had feelings for him.But she didn't want that to disrupt their friendship. So, she was going to push it to the back of her mind.She got herself a black short gown that accentuated her curves. She was going to be proclaimed the princess of the year anyway, so she needed to dress very well.Aside, she wanted Brad to notice how beautiful she looked.If not anything, he should at least acknowledge her. She loved it whenever he did.Within less than an hour, she was already applying makeup on her face.She picked up her phone when she was done and dialled Brad’s number. He picked it up immediately.“Hello, Sophia.”“I'm ready actually. You can come over now.”“Alright,” It felt like Brad smiled. “I will be ther

Sophia entered the room, with a big smile on her face. She has never felt so happy since all her born days. To even say she would be alive that day to see all the good news was an understatement.But she was happy and that was all that matters. Really!Exam is over! And she would soon be a graduate. What a nice day! Besides, all her problems were gone. Ned was gone, Vincenzo left already.Though, she was still bothered. He could come back but she wouldn't be in the city by then. Sophia would have been done with everything. She has a lot of money now and she could even continue as a creator. She has a lot of fans already.There just was nothing else she was supposed to be bothered about. Everything was good now!“No, don't eat like that!” Her mother was softly correcting little Lancelot.Sophia regarded them for a moment and the smile on her face got even wider.“No_ eat!” He murmured.The doctors said it was normal since Lancelot hasn't even spoken for so long. Even Though he still ha

Some students walked out of the exam hall, stretching. "Damn, those questions were a shock!" One of the students said while the other clapped him on the back, laughing. "What will be will be." Brad, David and Kevin also stepped out of the exam hall, their writing materials in their hands. They had smiles on their faces and you could easily tell that the exam was turned out well for them.Rose also stepped out alone the moment Brad and his friends came out. When she saw them, she couldn't help but stare at Brad longer than usual, wondering, "could it be true ?"Ever since Cliare told her, she had been wondering, thinking non stop about it. She kept wondering if this random looking guy can really be as rich as Claire had told her. Gosh. He doesn't even look it."Rise?"one of Rose's colleagues called but she didn't hear she was too absorbed inher thoughts about Brad and his wealth."Is that Brad you're staring at?" Her friend got infront of her face and laughed..Rise fkushed and sta

Rose quickly freshened up, changed into more casual wear, and headed for Rose's school.In a few minutes, she was at the school. It felt weird being in a school she wasn't schooled in. She almost felt like a mom.She laughed at her silliness and proceeded into the school. She had no idea where she would find either Brad or Rose but she kept going anyway. She was determined to meet with them, in fact, she would like to meet with both of them and have a serious talk with them.As she entered a hallway in the school, her eyes scanned the bunch of students who were rushing out of a class, and her gaze easily fell on Rose. Almost immediately, she spotted her too. With a big smile, she waved at her and Rose just rolled her eyes. She muttered something to the two girls she was walking with and sashayed her hips toward her."Now what are you doing here? I said I want you out of my life!" Rose greeted Claire hotly.Claire smiled and playfully nudged Rose on her shoulders, "Relax, cousin. Come

"But how do I make someone who hates my guts, my friend? I can't even get myself acquainted with him talkless of making him my friend," Gary said angrily."But- " Gary hesitated, still thinking about all she had. Found out and all that Dylan just explained to him. He was still confused as to how all of these were possible.His brows creased as he looked at Dylan, "If what you're saying is all true then Brad Harrier isn't just a rich man…" he trailed off and paused, " He is actually the head, " he broke off again, his sentences coming out distorted. His heart beats quickened as he started to grasp the real situation he was in, "That means Brad Harrier is a mafia lord," his heart skipped a beat, "one that had the power and had every legal right to take my life if he felt the need and the government would do nothing about it?"Dylan nodded tentatively, feeling sorry for his friend."Holy shit!" Gary had thought the walk calmed his nerves and made it easier for him to think straight but i

Gary was just reaching the restaurant at the same time Dylan arrived too. He shook his head as Dylan suddenly stopped walking and squinted at him.As Dylan approached the restaurant, he scanned the area of Gary's car but couldn't find it. He's late? He wondered, surprised, Claire was never late to their meet up here since he always came with his car. His thoughts trailed off when he saw someone who looked like his friend in the distance, hands buried in his pockets as she swaggered toward the entrance of the restaurant, his gaze already on him.At first, Dylan squinted at him, not believing his eyes. Gary shook his head as Dylan wouldn't stop staring. Then he left him outside and went inside the restaurant. Almost immediately, Dylan joined him across the table."Bro! Did you just trek?"Gary shrugged, "I told you I needed to clear my head, didn't I?""Wow. This is new," Dylan muttered to himself. He was about to start throwing questions at Gary when the waiter arrived and Gary immed

"Hey man," Gary literally sighed in his response after he answered the call."Man," the caller, Dylan, drawled. "You don't sound good, "What's up? How far have you gone with the search for your man? Did the chick tell you who he is?"Since Dylan was the one who arranged the men he used to get Claire, he knew about it.On a normal day when Gary was his normal self, if he had been asked so many questions at once, he would have lashed out at whoever dared to try it but this time, he didn't. He only knew his friend was talking, he couldn't process his excessive words."Man, I need to talk," he pinched the space between his forehead, squeezed his eyes shut, and opened it again. "I need to clear my head." "Are you okay, Gary?" Dylan asked worried."I might lose my job soon, I can't be fine," he answered Dylan's irritating question. "What do you say we meet at the usual restaurant in…" he trailed off and his gaze slid to his desktop screen to check the time. "I'm about an hour?"Dylan had
