"Y-you're firing me, Mrs. Marley?! I've been doing my job well. I've never been late, I've always done whatever you asked me to do, even when it wasn't related to my job. How could you fire me after all that?! You also know my current situation, right? Please, don't do this, Mrs. Marley," Lein said with a hopeful expression.
He had a mother who was lying in the hospital. If he lost this job, how would he pay for his mother's medical expenses? It was hard to find another job that paid as well as this restaurant. Therefore, Lein would struggle to keep his job. However, the woman named Marley only showed an indifferent expression as she replied, "I don't care about your situation! I asked you to bring me a gift for my birthday party, but you didn't. So, I've decided to fire you!" Hearing that, Lein showed an expression of disbelief. Just because of that, she fired me?! What an unreasonable reason! Marley knew his economic situation. How could she still demand a gift from someone who couldn't even afford a chocolate bar?! This made Lein want to slap Marley's face so badly. She deserved it for being such an unreasonable woman. However, Lein held back. If he did that, he would be put in jail. That would be the worst scenario in his life. He had to avoid anything that could land him in jail! Therefore, Lein decided to kneel down, begging, "Please, Mrs. Marley, don't fire me! I promise to buy you an expensive gift in the future. Please reconsider your decision." Marley stared at Lein with a condescending expression before finally replying, "You're going to buy me an expensive gift?! Are you kidding me, Damn it?! You can't even afford to buy me a small gift, so what about an expensive gift?! Don't make me laugh! Moreover, the reason I fired you is not only because of that. I know that your mother could die at any time. Considering that this restaurant has a rule that every family member of an employee who dies will receive assistance in the form of three times their salary, I think that this is the right time to fire you! I'd rather enjoy the money myself than have it given to you!" Lein clenched his fists so hard that the sound of blood vessels being pulled could be heard. He was so angry that he almost fell into madness. However, Lein once again managed to maintain his composure, not letting his anger get the better of him. He knew that if he slapped this woman, it would end badly for him. He shouldn't be in jail because no one would take care of his mother. Therefore, Lein decided to leave the room while staring at Marley with hatred. When he finally achieved success, he swore that he would destroy this bitch, making sure she regretted throwing such a horrible insult at his mother. While outside the restaurant, Lein suddenly received a call. It was from his girlfriend; Miya. This made Lein show a warm smile. He didn't expect that in a difficult situation like this, Miya would call him. He could talk to her a lot, vent his sadness, make him feel better. However, Lein didn't expect that picking up the phone would only make his situation worse. When the call connected, Lein could hear Miya's exhausted voice.No, it was more like... A sigh. "Lein... I-I want us to break up!" Lein who couldn't believe what he heard, asked with a shocked face, "What did you just say, Miya? Wasn't this relationship going fine? Why do you suddenly want to break up?" "Fine you say?! I've been enduring this suffering for three years! I can't stand being with a poor man like you anymore! You never even bought me an expensive gift! Do you know that I'm so jealous of girls who get expensive gifts from their boyfriends?! That's why I want us to break up! I've found a man who is a thousand times better than you!" Miya replied in an annoyed tone. Lein showed a bitter expression, asking, "Is that man Leon?!" Leon was the richest and most famous student at Corholt University. For the past few days, Lein had heard rumors that Leon wanted Miya, but Lein had ignored it, thinking that Miya would always be loyal to him. Considering what had happened to them over the past three years, facing both joys and sorrows together, Lein was confident that Miya would not leave him. However, he was completely wrong! Miya was no different from other women, always wanting luxury and wealth. Miya did not truly love him as he thought. This made Lein feel a great deal of pain. Furthermore, it was made worse by what Miya said next. "That's right. Leon and I are currently in a five-star hotel! We enjoyed a long night together! If I continue to be with you, I will definitely never experience all this luxury for the rest of my life! I hope you will forget about me, pretending that we never knew each other before! Stop chasing me! Trash like you will only be a parasite in my life!" Without waiting for a reply from Lein, Miya immediately hung up the phone. At this point, Lein could only show a dark face. Not only did he lose his job, he also lost his girlfriend. What should he do now?! He felt as if his world had collapsed. The only girl he thought loved him, had left him for money. Not only that, if he didn't find a job soon, his mother might leave him too, forever! "Does this mean there's nothing left in my life?! Does this mean I've really become a useless piece of trash?!" Lein then sat on the sidewalk, starting to cry over his bad luck. What wrong had he done in the past to deserve such a bad fate?! Did God hate him?! Did he really not deserve to be happy?! As Lein fell into despair, thinking that his life was truly over, a red hologram suddenly floated into his vision, sending him several messages. Lein was confused, wondering in his mind about what was happening right now. [Perfect match, Host found! Revenge System activated!] [Hell understands your despair. We give you a chance to take revenge on those who looked down on you!] [The more cruel your revenge, the better the reward you will receive!] Lein frowned, thinking that he was hallucinating. Did the extreme frustration and despair make him imagine unreasonable things? "But why does this seem so real? Is this a system like in fantasy novels?" And, the answer Lein received next was a notification that came from his cellphone. When he looked at his phone, his eyes widened in shock. He had just received a transfer of 100 million dollars into his account! The system then said, [That's your first reward! You also get ten additional points, which can be used to get a random reward.] [Open the box using ten points. You will get a random reward.] [Current points: 10] Although Lein was hesitant and afraid, he still clicked on the box image in the middle of the system. If all of this was real, then he would not miss it. This was his chance to change his life! This was his chance to destroy those who had insulted him! "Since God is not willing to side with me, ignore me, make me such a pitiful person, then I am willing to pledge allegiance to hell, as long as I can avenge all the insults I have ever received!" Lein said as he clenched his fists tightly. He had made up his mind! Then, the box opened and a sentence appeared in the middle of the system. [You are lucky! You have won one of the grand prizes. Your intelligence has increased fourfold!]The next second, Lein felt that he was able to absorb and digest more information. He felt that he was able to solve many problems that he had previously been unable to solve. The questions that had been bothering his mind seemed to be answered by themselves. This clearly showed that his intelligence had indeed increased rapidly! "So, this is really real?! I really got something so amazing, a system?!" Not only did he get the ability to absorb and digest information better, he also got 100 million dollars. Then, what would happen when he managed to take revenge on those who had looked down on him?! He might become one of the richest people in Corholt City and at the same time have the ability to destroy a country! Miya, Leon, Marley, Uncle Gibson, Jacob Anthony, Old Master Andreas, and all those who always looked down on me and my mother, just wait! All of you will become my stepping stones to gain wealth and power! I will make sure that all of you kneel at my feet, begging for mer
Lein arrived at the Mall of Corholt, one of the largest malls in Corholt City. To be honest, this was his first time coming here as a visitor. He was going to buy one of the most expensive apples in the world! He never thought that this moment would finally come. He came to such a luxurious place as a rich man who was going to spend his money! This was like a dream! As Lein fell into his thoughts, thinking about what he was going to buy next, the system suddenly gave him a message. [Target found! He is Edgar Fraser, one of your classmates. Do you want to take revenge on him?] Lein was quite surprised by the message the system gave him. "So, this is how the system works? I originally thought that I would have to find my target myself. However, it seems like the system will help me with that." He immediately turned his gaze around, looking for Edgar. From the east, not far from a jewelry store, Lein could see Edgar together with Delta, taking steps towards him. Lein knew bo
Lein and the two entered the jewelry store. The three were immediately greeted warmly by one of the saleswomen who asked, "Is there anything else you all need?" She was the one who had previously served Edgar and Delta, so she asked as such. Lein was the one who replied by asking in a polite tone, "Can you recommend me the most expensive necklace in this store?" The saleswoman was surprised, immediately assessing Lein's appearance. The next second, she frowned. Could this man really afford the most expensive necklace in this store? Realizing what was on her mind, Lein immediately added with a warm smile, "Don't worry, I'm much richer than I look." Given his experience working in many places, Lein had met hundreds if not thousands of rich people. He had even met a member of the Felipe Family, one of the wealthiest and most influential families in Corholt City. Thus, he understood very well how they behaved. He knew how to be a good rich person even before he became rich.As Lein h
On the other hand, Edgar and Delta could only be astonished at how Benedict treated Lein so politely and warmly. Did Benedict really think that Lein was from the Anthony Family; the wealthiest and most influential family in Corholt City?! It was just the same name! There was no way this bastard was from the great Anthony Family! If Lein was really from the Anthony Family, he would have driven to campus in a Lamborghini. However, that never happened, proving that Lein was just from a poor family. Edgar really wanted to tell Benedict about this misunderstanding, but he decided not to. He knew that Benedict would be extremely terrifying when he was angry. He would not even hesitate to kill those who offended him. Therefore, in order to not get involved in this matter, he decided to keep quiet and just follow their backs towards a room. It seemed like there was no need for him to break both of Lein’s arms and rip open Lein’s mouth. That would be done by Benedict. Of course, he did not
Hearing that, Edgar immediately woke up from his shock. Seeing how Lein managed to make a transaction with Benedict, he couldn’t believe his eyes. So, this bastard actually had the ability to buy that super expensive necklace?! Does this mean he really is from the Anthony Family?! Even though the facts were laid out before his eyes, he still couldn’t believe it. How could a bastard that he had always looked down on, always considered beneath his feet, actually be someone who came from such a wealthy family?! No! This is impossible! This bastard must be tricking me! He must have worked together with Benedict to trick me! Therefore, he retorted in an angry tone, “Do you think you can trick me, Bastard?! You must have worked together with Mr. Benedict to trick me, right?! You really are a rotten bastard! I won’t do it, Damn it! You cheat!” Hearing that, Lein smiled evilly. He knew that this would happen. How could this arrogant bastard be willing to kiss the feet of someone he had
When Lein arrived outside the jewelry store, the system gave him several messages. [You got an A! You did your revenge very well! Hell praises your talent. You deserve to be a devil!] [Rewards are being calculated. Please wait...] [Rewards awarded: You get 250 million dollars and 15 points.] [Because you did your first performance very well, you are given additional rewards: a luxury house in Mountainview Real Estate; Mountainview No. 1, and a Bugatti Tourbillon. The property ownership certificate and keys for both have been stored in your backpack.] Seeing all the messages, Lein was shocked. He didn't expect the rewards to be this much! He even got a house and a car?! Does this mean he already has a house and a car without having to buy it? He, who was initially depressed about spending 14 million dollars just like that, regained his spirit. This was a very worthy exchange! It seemed like, in the future, he would take revenge in a much more cruel way! He wanted to earn more mo
When Lein arrived at the hospital, he went straight to the reception area. He wanted to pay off all of his mother's medical expenses until she recovered."I want to pay all of the medical expenses in Athena Millidge's name. Also, I want her to be transferred to the best room in this hospital," Lein said to a woman on duty.The woman frowned, wondering if Lein had gone crazy?Of course, she knew Lein well. Lein was a man who used to beg the hospital to let his mother stay even though he had no money. Luckily, the owner of this hospital was a kind person, so he was given leniency.Because of this, Lein now owed 30 thousand dollars. No one knew when Lein would pay off all of his debts. There was even a possibility that his debts would pile up even more.This was also the reason why this woman thought Lein had gone crazy. He couldn’t afford to pay 30 thousand dollars, so what about a VIP room that cost 200 thousand dollars?!On the other hand, as if understanding what the woman was thinki
After making sure his mother was okay in her new room, Lein left Corholt General Hospital. He then went to the nearest ATM, withdrawing a few thousand dollars. He also bought a small bag at a shop not far from the ATM, putting his money in it. Then, he headed to his apartment. He kept his backpack there, which contained the keys to his new car and house, as well as the property ownership certificates for both. Of course, he wanted to see his new house and car as soon as possible! He had no idea what the Bugatti Tourbillon looked like. However, considering that it had the word 'Bugatti' in its name, it should be a very cool car! Luckily, Lein used to be a courier and had a driver's license, so he would have no trouble driving his new car. Also, he had no idea what his new house looked like; Mountainview No. 1. However, he had heard that the houses in Mountainview Real Estate were very expensive. A single house there could cost up to 100 million dollars! That was also the reason why
