That marks the end of this arc. I’ll be uploading two chapters daily until the end of next month which is when this entire story will come to an end. Thanks to those who have read this far.
Alexander returned to the house and freshened up. He went to the kitchen and made himself a bowl of cereal as there was nothing else he could eat without having to cook first then he rested on the counter and looked at the cooking utensils“Too bad I wasn’t able to get the cooking skill from Chef Ronaldo today, but tomorrow’s a new day,” he said then took his first bite of his cereal.Spoon after spoon, Alexander munched on the cereal then it got to the bottom with just three more spoonfuls left before the whole thing was finished.Alexander took a spoonful, put it in his mouth, chewed a little and then he stopped.He looked at the bowl of cereal, grimaced, chewed some more, and stopped again.He looked at his stomach and groaned.“Why doesn’t it feel like I’m being full while eating this?” Alexander asked himself. Just then, his stomach let out a loud growl and he felt a sharp pain like he hadn’t eaten for a whole day which was strange because he had eaten not so long ago. He had
Alexander grimaced in disbelief then he thought about it for a moment.“I guess you’re right about that. After all, just like everything else I’ve transferred to other people, you are also just a possession of mine so it should be possible”{“Exactly”}He knew that the system wouldn’t lie— not sure if it could yet— but wrapping his head about transferring it to someone else when he thought he was stuck with it for the rest of his life made him unsettled.“How long have I been able to transfer you?” Alexander asked, his question having a second meaning which was querying the system why it hadn’t informed him of such an ability until just then. Could the reason be like what happened with the Ultimate Sacrifice Feature where he didn’t know important details about it because he didn’t do the research and the system didn’t tell him until he needed it or was this ability to transfer the system something recently obtained?Alexander contemplated a little and then said “Show me how I can do
Through the monitor, Alexander saw Mrs. Terrence ring the bell again. Since the woman had shown him how to operate the monitor to not just control the smart system that runs everything in the house, but also how to turn on the speaker at the gate, Alexander pressed the button and activated the speaker.Once activated, the person by the speaker would hear a sound that’d let them know that it had been turned on so as not to be startled when they suddenly hear a voice come out of the thing. “Good evening, Missus Terrence” Alexander greeted. “Good evening Alexander. How are you this evening?” she greeted back.“I’m fine. And you?” He said.“I’m fine too” she replied.“That’s great to hear. Anyway, is there any problem? Not that I have any issues with getting a visit from you this late in the night, but it’s just not something I was expecting ” Alexander said and the older woman chuckled. “Sorry for disturbing you this late in the night. I and my daughter were just returning from an ou
“Tenant?” Alexander asked. “That’s right. My wife and I own this entire estate and while she uses her time to represent us as the agent, my job is to further expand—“ Mr. Terrence said but his wife cut him off by tapping his chest lovingly.“No talking business while we haven’t even gotten the chance to go in yet” Mrs. Terrence reprimanded and her husband chuckled. “My apologies, Alexander. It’s a bad habit of mine but thanks to my beautiful wife, it’s now under control” Mr. Terrence said. “It’s fine. I wasn’t bothered by it one bit” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence grinned. “I like you and I think that the two of us are going to have a great rapport. Anyway, let’s end the talks here and go inside where it’s more comfortable. Dinner should also be getting ready any moment” Mr. Terrence said and then he started leading everyone inside. Just as the man of the house and his wife turned to face the door, Alexander looked at their daughter, who was a couple of months younger than him a
Alexander, who walked over to the adjacent couch, shrugged. “I’m not really a sports fan. As a matter of fact, I don’t really watch television so you can put whatever you want to watch, sir” Alexander replied and Mr. Terrence grimaced. “What do you mean you don’t watch television? What do you do for fun then if you don’t watch television like other kids your age?” He asked and Alexander shrugged.“I mostly read or be by myself and think about things,” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence, who was shocked to hear his answer, sat down and groaned.“That’s strange,” he said, and Alexander, who also sat down, grimaced. “What is, sir?” Alexander asked. “Your answer. It’s completely different from what I’d expect from a young man your age. You’re nothing like any of my daughter’s friends and honestly, I kind of like that” Mr. Terrence said and Alexander smiled. “Thank you, sir. That means a lot coming from you” Alexander said then he groaned and turned his head to the left a bit.He also in
“I’m very observant, remember? I could smell your intentions behind asking me all those questions from a mile away” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence groaned as he furrowed his eyebrows.“My intentions?” The man of the house asked.“That’s right. I’m not a father, but if I were, especially a father to a girl child, I wouldn’t just allow a stranger of my stature and build to come into my house just because my daughter wanted to invite them. Knowing how good of a businessman you must be to have what you do, you wouldn’t make such a reckless decision which leaves me to think that the reason why you allowed my invitation to pass is because you wanted to know what type of person you new tenant is, so this is basically a business move disguised as a caring father act” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence kept quiet to listen to the rest of what the young multimillionaire was going to say. “Because it isn’t normal for a person my age to have the amount of money to rent a place here or drive the ki
Both ladies were looking very beautiful. Though Winifred was young and still growing into her looks, she was very beautiful and had an innocent look to her which would make any man’s heart melt. As for Mrs. Terrence, she was the evidence of what the young girl had to look forward to when she was her age. Her face and body were excellently crafted by her creator. “What are you guys talking about?” Mrs. Terrence asked and both Alexander and her husband looked at her and Winifred. “I was just getting to know Alexander a little better is all. Isn’t that right, Alexander?” Mr. Terrence asked and they all looked at Alexander. “That’s right. Mr. Terrence and I were just talking about how I grew up and all. Nothing too serious” Mrs. Terrence looked at her husband suspiciously for a moment. Like Alexander, she too had a feeling that there was a motive behind why he agreed to the dinner invitation but she didn’t think as far as Alexander did to realize the truth so she let it go. “Alrig
“Thank you, Missus Terrence, and don’t mind if I do,” Alexander said then asked Winifred to help him with one of the bowls so he could dish more food for himself. As she gave Alexander the bowl and he started dishing for himself, Mr. Terrence asked “So, Alexander, as I was saying before I was painfully interrupted…”Mrs. Terrence rolled her eyes again while having a smile on her face.“What’s your basketball experience?” Mr. Terrence asked as Alexander gave the bowl back to Winifred to keep while asking her to give him another bowl. “I’ve never played the game before. As a matter of fact, I’ve never been on the court or held the ball before” Alexander replied and Mr. Terrence’s eyes widened.“What about high school? Didn’t your high school have basketball as one of the sports the students played? Surely you got curious about shooting at the hoop at least once or twice” Mr. Terrence said.“Yes, we did have a basketball court as well as other games but I never really got to play” Ale
