At first, Dave was speechless. He did not know what to say or how to act. He just stood in between Marcus, Neil and Nathan. Amanda could not believe her eyes. This was not the same Nathan she once knew. It felt like she was seeing a completely different soul like the guys in fantasy stories and movies. Everything about him changed. From his face to his charisma and every other feature that describes a perfect male. What happened to her ex? How did he suddenly become so rich, rich beyond their expectations? Amanda could literally feel her body vibrating. She began to regret the day she ever broke up with Nathan. She should have stayed. She could have stayed with him and enjoyed many more moments with him, including his newfound wealth. A drop of tear escaped her eye, but she made sure to quickly wipe it off before anyone would notice her demeanour. “What is this, Nathan? Are you crazy? Who are you trying to deceive? Me? Never!” Dave uttered enthusiastically. Nathan looked at hi
“David Lynch, $15 Million” Bubble Gum announced and she paused for a bit to confirm if she read that right. “Did someone just donate $15 Million!” Bubble Gum said without thinking twice. Murmurs began to fly silently through the cluster of stuents. They all turned back to look for who this rich dude was. But the mumurs were quickly drowned in the echo of the next announcement. “Charles Beckham, $18 Million” “Anastasia Hearst, $20 Miliion!” The speaker accounced with so much enthusiam mixed with confusion. She had to call for an attendant to ensure she wasn’t calling the figures wrongly. Three mighty individuals just contributed $53 Million at stretch. The three donors, Princess Anastasia, Dave and Charles were asked to signify themselves and the three of them stood up gently. Everyone began to applaud them immensely. Some students were extremely jealous, others were sad that while they couldn’t even afford a nice car, there were students who could literally just spend
The hall went a bit silent. Everyone was waiting for Mr. Humble Bunny to identify himself so that due recognition and praise would be ushered. But they waited and waited, and Nathan said nothing and did nothing. He remained silent and watched everyone search for him. He simply smiled and let mysteries remain mysteries, at least, for the time being. For some reasons, he did not desire to be identified as Mr. Humble Bunny just yet. He still had a lot on his plate. But Nathan was grateful to have made such donations to support the needy worldwide. He only wanted to add a bit of drama to his donation, and that was the reason why he summed up all the donations of Dave, Anastasia and Charles and made the exact same amount of donation. It would spice up the event and attract more guests for further events. “Okay, it looks like our generous donor, Mr. Humble Bee has decided to remain anonymous, and I must say, that is truly humble as his name implies. He is truly noble. Please, let's gi
It was none other than Nathan Reed. “Oh my fucking god! This isn’t happening!” “No way! Is that the orphan?” “I don’t understand what is going on. Do you know him?” “I do. I fucking do. He is.. I mean.. was a broke kid in my college. We often called him a church rat. It seems the rat has found gold in cheese.” “Hell yeah! That dude is fucking crazy!!” “$40 million for a sculpture? Dude must be a billionaire!” As Nathan rose up in the spotlight, the air around him became sophisticated. His aura and charisma flew across the whole room. Almost every damn girl in that hall was immediately drawn to him. His handsome face, his physique. They admired it. What even made it more memorable was that Kamsi, who was dressed like a goddess, stood beside him. They looked like the world’s best siblings. Nathan was then given a microphone to say something. Anything. “Um, hi. I’m happy to be of help. If this was 10 years ago, my sister and I would be clutching our hands as we watch
“Oh, hi, Amanda. What a surprise. The event is still ongoing.” Nathan said and gave off a mature smile. “Um.. hi, Nathan. Yeah. They are um.. simply making closing remarks. So, I.. you know.. came to see you off!” Amanda stammered. Nathan chuckled. See him off? Why? When did that start? Well, just a few seconds ago. “I appreciate your care, Amanda. Now, I have to get going. And you also need to get back. Your boyfriend must be waiting for you!” Nathan said and smiled. “Umm.. no no. It’s fine. So, um.. I see things are working just fine for you now. It’s cool!” Amanda said. Nathan understood her reason for being here and what she wanted. He was no fool. She now has a boyfriend and he has to respect that fact. He wouldn’t want to pry into the relationship of two people. “Well, Amanda, hard work does pay, doesn’t it? And oh, things have always been working for me. I mean, I had everything I needed; my loved ones. I only had to change the trajectory.” He responded. Amanda
Nathan was brutally tired. He had expected to have a good time at the gala event, but it was ruined by Dave and he was understandably angry. Nathan had never done anything to upset Dave, well, except the time when Nathan beat Dave mercilessly for stealing his babe. But those were bygones and Nathan now had a new life. He just wanted to live alone and happy, But Dave had pushed him to the wall and now, he was going to pay for it. He pulled out his phone and called Fred. “How many percentage of shares do you mention that we own in Mr. Lynch’s company, Fred?” “65% of shares, young master. We have 65% of shares in D Royals eat out. Is there something wrong, young master?” Fred asked. “I want you to take back all the shares in the company and close any further dealings with Mr. Lynch. If he is smart enough to beg you, offer to buy his business and make him the manager. His pay should be fair. All the documents of the purchased company should be sent to me!” Nathan said angrily.
Nathan was shocked to his bones as he saw those images. He couldn’t believe his eyes. He looked up at the principal. He looked through her eyes and read her expression. She wasn’t so convinced that the young man sitting before her was truly capable of such a hideous crime. “Come on, Mrs. Heather, you do not possibly believe this, do you? This is a fake image. It is clearly a photoshopped image. Why would I ever loot a car? It is not even possible!” Nathan explained. “I believe you are telling the truth, Nathan. But belief is not enough. The company reached out to us today and informed us that the very car you drove to the gala last night was a stolen property and they have no record of selling that car to any individual.” Mrs. Heather kindly explained. “This is ridiculous. I…” “Hold it there, young man! You are a thief and a liar. Everything you say and do is fake. Is it even possible for a student as broke and incompetent as you to be able to purchase a car worth $900 Millio
“Young man, you are a thief, is that so hard to see? Just plead guilty, turn in the car and serve a few months of punishment. If you keep refusing to cooperate, things will only get worse for you,” the officer said sternly, his tone brooking no argument. Nathan sat in the interrogation room, his hands clenched into fists. He was disappointed with the fact that even the police could not dig into this matter and ensure that both parties were heard from. Or maybe they did dig into the matter and found out the truth, but they were too greedy to refuse a bribe. They chose to turn a blind eye due to their own interests or the influence of powerful individuals involved. The company had definitely met up with them and they had definitely made an alliance. For real though, when the company heard that a little college kid had ownership of the most expensive car they ever made, they knew that was a quicksand to quickly drown the young boy in. Who would believe a young college kid anyway? W
