"I'm around your house, I want to give you something can we meet today?" Anna contacted Dakota through a phone call.

Dakota, who was putting on his pants, was surprised by the sudden invitation without prior notice that allowed his to prepare in advance. "Are you around?" he tried to calm down.

"Yes. Shall we meet?" The woman asked in a tone that was sweet to his ears.

"Sure." Dakota immediately answered him. "There's a small Cafe around here. I'll meet you there." Dakota took the clothes in his closet and put them on with difficulty while putting the phone to his ear.

"Alright I'll wait for you there." Anna ended the call.

Dakota immediately ran out of his flat. He hurriedly descended the stairs and then noticed the small Café in the neighbourhood. But he forgot that there wasn't only one café there. He checked Anna's whereabouts through the glass wall of the café he passed, and then his eyes found Anna sitting in the corner of the café alone. Anna, who saw her, waved to Dakota, and t

    "Stop right there." The man's hand tried to stop Dakota.But Dakota, who realized someone was trying to touch him, dodged the touch suddenly until he made the man who wanted to land his hand on Dakota's shoulder lose his balance and almost made him fall. Seeing Dakota almost made him fall. The man was getting angry and looked at Dakota with annoyance.Dakota looked at the man, whose face looked familiar to him, and he remembered that the man was one of the students in his class. But the man rarely attended and often left his assignments to be done by other students while he only had to pay them. For that reason, Dakota didn't really recognize him. he only knew that he was named Alex.Since Alex was rarely on campus, he was rarely aware of the news that spread on campus. He didn't care about his surroundings unless something didn't look right to him.Alex gave Dakota an annoyed look. He looked at Dakota again, and his gaze got sharper watching her. "People like you shouldn't be in a fa

    "You're imagining things, huh?" Alex laughed at him. He laughed so hard that the corners of his eyes watered. The man wipes his eyes and then looks at Dakota. "Do you realize how much those clothes you're pointing at are worth? Don't go crazy and embarrass yourself in this place, you idiot."Dakota looked at him, who continued to make a mocking expression in front of her. "I know, and I can afford to pay for it. You don't have to bother calculating the price for me." Dakota said back to him."You who only wears one type of clothes for each season because you can't afford it, acting like you have money. You all know this person is the one who wears one type of clothing no matter if it's summer or winter, so do you think he can afford all this? He's just relying on scholarships to go to college and living on a salary that's far from enough because he works odd jobs." He spoke as if the people there were listening to her.The man wanted to embarrass him in front of all the shopkeepers an

    "How is that possible?" He shouted in disbelief. "You check the payment again you might have made a mistake." He pointed at the woman behind the checkout counter.The woman confirmed through his payment machine and the charge He processed on Dakota's card. "There was no mistake, sir. The card you were given accepted the transaction and only required confirmation. The fund balance of the card was sufficient to pay the bill.""But that's impossible," Alex said, looking confused about what was happening."I told you, while you were busy playing around and never showed up. There have been so many changes." Alex stares angrily at Dakota, his face visibly flushed.Meanwhile, Dakota confirmed his shopping transaction, which was completed quickly. The woman who handled the transaction smiled kindly. He was being more friendly than before. "Thank you for shopping at our store in such a large amount. If any new editions of our products come out every season, would you mind contacting us, sir?"

    Dakota gazed happily at his customer account book. There, he saw that the price of the shares he bought gave him considerable profit.It could even be said that the profit generated at this time was enough to make him prosperous, even though he was not the wealthiest person. However, the profit generated by the company is very promising and profitable."The stocks we chose were really good, as I explained at the time. The price of the shares they own is going up." Anna smiled happily at him."You were right. Thanks to you, I got the right help." He complimented Anna and made her even happier.A few days ago, he was reading the news about the company he had invested in. As he read, he envisioned the stock price increasing by three percent. That's a considerable number because stock prices usually move by zero points. But a few days later, the stock price in that place still increased, although only the point grew daily. And now, the upward movement of the stock price from the original

    Two days earlier, Anna had told Dakota that she would pick him up at 9am, and they would leave for the auction. Anna asked Dakota to get ready, and now Dakota was waiting for her in front of his flat. He sees the white Porsche that Anna was driving the other day appear and stop right in front of him."The road is having a little trouble, so I'm not late picking you up. Sorry." The girl showed her unpleasant face in front of Dakota.Dakota pulled the car door next to Anna's seat, then sat down to join him there. "No problem, I don't mind waiting."Anna looked at him with a smile. She took a moment to notice Dakota's outfit before she drove the Porsche she was riding in. "Just so you know, I have no intention of making the handsome man who made an appointment with me today wait for me for long." He leered at Dakota and then drove off.Dakota opened his eyes wide, looking at Anna. He seemed to smile slightly and was a little taken aback at Anna's compliment, though he wasn't sure if the

    "There's a lot of money going around here." Dakota spoke quietly, but it could still be heard clearly by Anna.The atmosphere there became even more heated, even crazier, according to Dakota, who was flabbergasted to learn that they didn't hesitate to mention large amounts for items that weren't worth that much. The thinking of those rich people was exhausting. She couldn't believe they spent tens of millions on those things.Anna saw it at a glance and understood why Dakota looked surprised. "Yes, of course. It's a marvellous place here, isn't it?" she smiled and looked at it happily. "As I said, everyone in this place is rich. It's good for you to get to know their characters in this place."People with high per capita income wouldn't know what it's like when their stomachs are starving because they have nothing to eat. They are not people who have ever felt the cold because they could not buy thick enough padding. They were people who wouldn't understand what it was like to work in

    "Ah, my head is throbbing with pain," Dakota said softly so that none of them could hear him. Dakota closed his eyes, and he tilted his head because he felt that his head was too busy listening to the various thoughts of the people in that place. Dakota looked overwhelmed. It was a new experience that Dakota had never imagined would happen and was distressing."This moon goddess statue is not only a good luck charm. This statue can also make you who have it a great person for having it. You can be proud of your ownership of this statue because there is only one statue of this kind in the world, considering that this statue is the last work that Balo Cassapio did." The auctioneer encouraged the audience in front of him to be persuaded by him.He knew the characters of the rich people in front of him quite well. All he had to do was provoke them with their high egos and say things that praised their habits as if they were commonplace. After that, they will be in his trap, competing to b

    "Hey, hurry up and prove your words." The man beside Dakota asked her to give proof.The front man, wearing a maroon-coloured suit, also turned his head back and looked at Dakota. "Be responsible with your words and show what you believe in. Act like a gentleman!"They began to feel uneasy. On the one hand, they were so used to the event that they thought there was no problem with the organiser. They trusted the auction event organised by the hotel. But on the other hand, they felt disturbed and anxious because of Dakota's words. So they wanted Dakota to prove her words earlier.The woman wearing a gold dress with a sheath cut glanced at him sharply. "You're ruining the atmosphere at the auction this time with your words, and it seems like you're a new person who doesn't understand the auction rules. Miss, why did you let your partner make a scene here when you seem to understand what the rules of this event are." The woman turned to attack Anna.Anna was silent, unable to answer. She

    "What is this? Why is the news like this?" the aunt stared at the screen dumbfounded.The news they prepared and presented to the media to attack Dakota suddenly turned around and attacked them. Moreover, the news exposed their family's confidential matters."It is known that the family of the O'connor family heir's adoptive father before returning to the O'connor family treated the heir with bad manners." The man presenting the news spoke loudly with the news. "They took the money from her father's death insurance without giving any of the money left to Dakota."They were dumbfounded, looking at each other. Not understanding how it could have happened. They had no idea that news about themselves would be exposed to the media. They weren't necessary, so they didn't think the press would target them."How did they find out about that?" They were stunned. Even Dakota didn't know about her adoptive father's insurance, and his will wasn't read in front of her. She hadn't received any supp

    "What the hell is Dakota doing to us?" Said the uncle, who was currently on the side of the road not far from Dakota's company.They were all forcibly evicted by the security guards and threatened to be reported to the authorities if they were still there. So, with the people forced to leave, they looked disgruntled and upset."I don't accept what he did to us." The aunt coaxing Dakota with her sweet words now showed her true face. "She can't just kick us out."The people strolling and blocking the other pedestrians seemed to be very indifferent to the other people. They walked and stopped, walked and stopped again without caring.There were three women and two men, but none cared about Dakota.The woman who had blonde hair and looked younger than them looked at her brothers with a similar look on her face. "He can't be allowed. We must teach Dakota a lesson." The woman privatized hi,."Lesson?" The woman who approached Dakota earlier turned his attention to the woman. "What do you me

    "Dakota, you're such a joker." The woman, whose face looked shocked a moment ago, now turned soft. She chuckled while patting Dakota's arm.But Dakota had a different expression. He ignored what the woman was doing and just glanced at her with her gaze looking down because they were quite short and too close to her.The woman touched Dakota's hand like she was used to doing that every time she met Dakota. She didn't seem awkward at all, even though to Dakota, what she was doing was a nuisance.The woman's eyes widened, and with her face as friendly as possible, she spoke, "You are very easy to joke with. I can tell that you're a good person." She complimented Dakota, flicking her gaze towards the others, and the men greeted the woman's words with pitched exclamations. "After all, we're the ones who took care of you when you were little. If it wasn't for us, you wouldn't be in this place right now." She spoke with pride."That's right!" The others exclaimed.

    "I told you to let me in!" Snapped the man, Dakota's uncle, while Dakota's status was unknown.Because the news about Dakota circulated across the country and appeared in the newspapers, people who recognized Dakota recognized Dakota's picture, which was only taken briefly because the O'Connor family still guarded his identity.But for people who intersect with her, of course, Dakota's silhouette is so easy for them to recognize. Therefore, the uncle is currently in the leading company owned by the O'Connor family to find Dakota."Sorry, but you can't come in." The guard at the building's main door blocked his uncle Dakota's attempt to break in.Since they were so insistent on getting in, they seemed normal at first. But when asked what their purpose was and if they had made a schedule to meet, the people, instead of answering argued to be allowed to enter.The man with slightly bleached hair near his ears brushed off the guard's hand. "I told you I was his uncle! Didn't you hear me?"

    "How could this be Dakota?" The voice of a woman in the crowd on the street, staring at the street billboard that showed an announcement about Dakota.The woman stared wide-eyed at Dakota's appearance, which had changed 180 degrees from the Dakota she once recognized. The woman tightly clenched her hand that held her bag tightly, her eyes did not move from where they were, listening to the news being aired all over the country.She was Gea, the woman who rejected Dakota's love five times because Dakota was just a poor man. Gea used to really dislike Dakota because of Dakota's poor status. She was upset that a poor man like Dakota dared to like someone like her.But now, Gea seemed frustrated to know the truth. "I should have just accepted it back then." She regretted it. "If I was with him, my life wouldn't have been possible like it is today."She grumbled in annoyance, her past suddenly came back into her head, she remembered the figure of Dakota who used to like her but she rejecte

    "I heard that there are many guests coming today." A glamorous woman in a dress cut low on the chest spoke to a man before her.The man nodded. "Yes. I saw from the guest list that the guests invited by them are three times more than the guests they usually invite." The classic-looking man responded.Many people dressed in luxurious clothes in the ballroom of the residence occupied by the O'Connor family as one of their leisure homes.They wore hand oes, clothes, and jewelry from world designers with limited items. They seemed to enjoy the party even though the main event had not started.Their conversations varied, ranging from simple greetings by those who rarely met because they had their own busy schedules, talking about business and what was trending among the upper-class people, to talking about their respective lifestyles as show-offs."Almost everyone who comes to this place is critical." In the middle of the party, the other guests were observing the guests.The woman with br

    "I got a lot done today." Dakota stretches his shoulders in the spinning chair before the computer screen.A few days ago, James had given him various assignments that suddenly became jobs he had to take care of and learn about.Starting with learning about their family tree, the company run by their family, and the people involved with their family, all Dakota learned because of James' orders to him.James wanted Dakota to know that as a basis, then after he understood it, James made Dakota tour each of their subsidiaries, but Dakota was there to accompany him and look around.For a whole week, Dakota's schedule was packed with things James had in mind after observing him. Dakota still remembers that just when he thought his schedule was over, James said, "It's time to introduce you to the public. You've prepared everything you need to know, and now it's time for you to emerge as the heir of the O'Connor family.""I have prepared the guest list. Mr. James said you need to look at it

    "Hands off!" she snapped at the officer loudly. "What are you doing?" he looked panicked and worriedly at Dakota. "Sorry I came late, sir."All of them looked shocked and couldn't believe what they saw, especially the manager and the security guard, who recognized the man with the cane as their senior officer in the mall. The man was the highest leader of their branch mall. He was the managing director.The manager looked nervous. He read the situation and tried to realize what was happening. "Mr. Director, what are you doing here?" he looked confused. "Don't you have an important meeting today? Why can't you?" Those questions came to mind.As he said them one by one, he was like getting the scattered puzzle pieces and being able to put them together clearly, then his face turned anxious and panicked looking at Dakota.He looked at Dakota with a fierce look. "No way, so he owns this mall, like he said? he's not lying?" the man thought to himself.Dakota glanced at him with a slight sn

    "Come to the watchdog room section. Some people are giving me a hard time in this place," Dakota said right after their call was connected."You're currently at the mall, sir?" the voice on the other end sounded panicked. Without giving Dakota a chance to answer his question, he spoke again, "Yes, sir, I'll be right there." He ended their phone call. He ended their phone call.Dakota contacted one of the highest-ranking staff in the mall. It was true that Dakota did have the largest share there. But he did not run it and take a position as one of the board of directors there because his work was already too much, and he just wanted to take his profit opportunities.Being an investor for them was much more flexible because he couldn't divide his time while he had a lot of work.As their call ended, the woman looked at him with a laugh. "What are you doing? Who did you call?" She chuckled. She really couldn't believe that Dakota was the one who owned such a big mall.Even being one of t
