I Made $900 Trillion In 24 Hours Marcus groveled
Mr. West's face turned crimson with rage as he grabbed Marcus by the collar. "You insolent fool! On your knees! Grovel and beg for Miss Phoenix's forgiveness this instant!" Veronica held up a hand. "I don't need his apology. He should be groveling to Barry—the man he just humiliated. He's outside in the cold with his sister." Mr. West didn't hesitate. He was scared of Veronica not because she's a big shot but because the Pearl Hotel was built with a staggering loan from the Phoenix Bank which was still being paid. If Veronica flip off the script, the entire hotel could come crashing down and Mr. West would lose his job.He seized Marcus by the ear and dragged him, stumbling and wincing, out of the lobby and into the cold evening air where Barry and Snow stood. "Apologize to Mr. Reeds now!" the manager barked, shoving Marcus forward. "Do it or I'll crucify you where you stand." Marcus fell to his hands and knees in front of Barry. His voice trembled as he spoke. "B-Barry… I-

"You keep surprising me everyday Barry. Have you spoken to the president about it?""Yeah, about that," Barry wiped his mouth with a napkin. "He's agreed to to hold a meeting with you to discuss the details."Veronica stared at him for a while. "Let me guess, you're going to put me in charge of this project, aren't you?"Barry smirked. "I'm afraid so. I want the Sullivan Group to be the sole sponsor of this project. You'll do a great job at it, won't you?"Veronica sighed. "Well, it was my idea in the world first place. I guess I'll do it."Barry reached out and held her hand

Among the guests were eligible wealthy bachelors who clamoured around Laura, hoping to be the lucky guy she might consider to marry. Reeves was more aggressive than the rest of the other bachelors. He followed Laura everywhere like a dog, bothering her with his loud, boring stories. Barry couldn't take it anymore and interjected when he shouldn't have. “You're bothering my wife, Reeves, give it a rest already,” Barry said, standing between Reeves and Laura. That was when Reeves slapped him. “How dare you speak to me like we're equals?” Reeves snapped at him. “You're nothing but a cheap loser who got lucky
I Made $900 Trillion In 24 Hours Evelyn Raven
North Hills was a thriving metropolitan city which uses the ranking system in its social status and hierarchy identity. There were six ranks, A rank to E ranks, with E rank being the lowest rank.

After his mother died from her illness, he took his kid sister, Snow, and ran away. Homeless, Barry did what he could to provide for himself and his kid sister. During one of his odd jobs, he ran into Evelyn Raven. Her purse had fallen down on the walkway. It contained $10,000 in cash, an ATM card, and some previous jewelry. When Barry returned her purse, Evelyn was smitten by his transparency and decided to take him in. She gave him a job in the Raven household, rented a small apartment to shelter him and snow. Then she enrolled them in school. Evelyn's kindness is the only reason Barry could endure the insults and abu

I Made $900 Trillion In 24 Hours Divorced
Barry froze as he stared at the papers in her hand. "Laura, what is the meaning of this?" He whispered. "You can't divorce me.""Whatever gave you the stupid idea that I couldn't divorce you?" She laughed. "Everybody knows our marriage is a sham. I only pretended to be your wife for my grandmother's sake, but now that she's gone, I don't need to pretend anymore."Barry felt hot and cold at the same time. "But Laura.... I-I love you. I've always loved you since the day I set eyes on you. Please give me a chance. I made a promise to Evelyn.""Screw you and your love," Laura spat, wrinkling her nose in disgust. "Don't tell me you love me. It makes my skin crawl. I hate you. I've always hated you since the day you walked into this family."Barry's heart broke in half after hearing her words. He wanted to say something but no word got out. Laura turned to face her family, waving the divorce papers in her hand. "Now that I'm divorcing this useless husband of mine, I'm entitled to 80% of w
I Made $900 Trillion In 24 Hours The Trading account
Barry lived in a two-bedroom apartment situated in the district zone. The district zone contains individuals with D ranks. People in D ranks were regular folks, earning average salaries and holding common positions. They're literally average Joes. But Barry, who was an E Rank, had no hopes of paying the rent nor enrolling his sister in school all by himself. As Barry headed home, his head was spinning with the additional responsibilities on his hands. With his benefactor, dead, there was no one to support him anymore. The Raven family would only pay him $200 if he continued to slave for them. But $200 was barely enough to feed himself, pay the rent or see his younger sister through school. Standing outside his apartment, Barry took a deep breath before knocking on the door. The door opened to reveal a cute sixteen-year-old high school girl wearing shorts and a sweater. “I'm home, Snow,” Barry said, forcing a wide smile on his face. “Here, I bought us dinner.”He stretched ou

Mr. West
Marcus staggered back, clutching his cheek, his face red with anger. His eyes narrowed as he glared at Snow, his voice rising to a shout. "How dare you! Do you have any idea who I am? I’ll have you thrown in juvenile delinquency prison for that! You can’t just slap me and get away with it!"Snow stood her ground, her eyes blazing with fury. "You keep my mother’s name out of your mouth! I won’t let you insult her or make a mockery of her. You have no right!"Marcus cursed under his breath, his face twisted with rage. "You little brat! You think you can come here and act all high and mighty? You’re nothing but trash from the slums, just like your brother!"Barry stepped forward, his eyes hard and his voice low but dangerous. "That’s enough, Marcus. You’re going to grovel and apologize to my sister right now."Marcus laughed, a harsh, mocking sound that echoed through the lobby. "Apologize? To her? Barry, you must be stupid. Do you think you’re some big shot now? You’re still the same
Barry's Hometown
"Big brother, I'll like to visit our hometown for the holiday," Snow said. It was the 20th of December and only five days to Christmas. Barry was already making preparations for having an amazing Christmas with himself, Snow and Veronica.But then Snow's request hit Barry like a brick wall. "You want to celebrate Christmas at our hometown? But Snow, we haven't been there for years.""I know," Snow said, her eyes pleading. "I have friends I grew up with at our old neighborhood and I'll want to see them again. Even more so, I wish to visit our mother's grave and spend some time with her."Barry was surprised at Snow's request. Ever since he acquired wealth, it never crossed his mind to visit his hometown. The bad memories of his past caused him to hate his hometown. But Snow has a point. His mother's grave would need a better renovation."You know what," Barry playfully ruffled her hair. "Why don't we all fly to our hometown and spend both Christmas and new year over there?"Snow's ey
Successful Car launch
Barry moved swiftly to execute his plan. Within days of securing the agreement with President Grayson, the Sullivan Group settled off the staggering $20 trillion national debt as if it was nothing.The creditors, satisfied with the payment, relinquished control of the airports, seaports, and railways, allowing the country’s infrastructure to resume operations. The economy was still fragile but with Barry taking total control of everything, it began to stabilize as trade routes reopened and businesses slowly came back to life.The people were happy and sang the president praises.But no one knew the true deal Grayson had with Barry. If the people knew, they'd be outraged.Meanwhile, Barry now wielded unprecedented power no one had ever imagined. He had full control of the national treasury, giving him authority over the country’s finances. Barry also oversaw all government contracts and budgets, ensuring that every major decision required his approval before it's executed. Hencefo
The secret deal
Barry leaned back in his chair. “Then we have no deal, Mr. President. If you’re not willing to cooperate, the Sullivan Group won’t help you. It’s as simple as that.”President Grayson’s face flushed with anger, and he turned sharply to Veronica, pointing an accusatory finger at Barry. “What is his deal? Who does he think he is? I’m not making a deal with him! I’m making a deal with you, Ms. Phoenix. This man has no right to speak to me like this!”Barry’s lips curled into a faint smirk. Veronica responded, her tone cool. “Mr. President, as I mentioned earlier, Barry is an integral part of this discussion. He speaks for the Sullivan Group. If you want our help, you’ll have to negotiate with him.”Barry interjected. “It’s like Veronica said, Mr. President. I’m important to this deal. $20 trillion doesn’t come cheap. If the Sullivan Group is going to give up that amount of money, we might as well take total control of the country. But we’re not that greedy. You and your regime can still

Our nation has fallen into a staggering debt of $20 trillion. Despite our best efforts, we are unable to settle this debt. As a result, our three international airports, two major shipping ports, and five key railway stations will be seized as collateral by our creditors.”Barry’s jaw tightened as the president continued. “This is a trying time for our nation, and I ask for your understanding and patience as we navigate this crisis. We are exploring all possible solutions, but the road ahead will be

Zayn couldn't believe his ears when he learnt that the Eclipse Diamond was bought by Veronica Phoenix."How?" He yelled in his phone at Dorian Blackwood. "How did you let this happen? Why couldn't you get to me first before you sold the diamond?"Dorian was on the other end of the line. He had just handed over the Eclipse diamond to the representatives of the Phoenix family an hour ago before Zayn's call dropped in."I had to, your majesty," Dorian replied him, coolly. "My company was going under by the minutes. Veronica Phoenix offered to help in exchange for the diamond. It's my most priceless possessions.""You should've talked to me about this first," Zayn snapped. "I wanted that diamond. Would she be willing to sell it to me?"Dorian replied with a gloomy expression on his face. "I'm afraid not, your highness. Veronica Phoenix cleared $50 billion of debt in exchange for the diamond. She's not going to give it up that easy."Zayn felt blood rush to his face. He wanted to strangl
