The daily life of a billionaire. 

Henley Austen now resides in Elite City cluster A.  This is just a secret, but besides his Aurum Chateu in Elite City, he also owns another house there where he lives. Aside from that, he also now owns another secret property outside Elite City, and that house serves as his hideout. Thanks to the system he had got, it was like he had won the lottery more. His life quickly changed. Henley's house is the biggest in cluster A. His bedroom is situated on the 5th floor. His maids were gathered around him before his alarm clock even sounded. And as he rose from the bed, all the maids greeted him, while one of them handed him warm water to drink, and the other handed him his slippers to wear. At the signal of his hand, the maids quickly leave the room, and he gets the curtain's remote. Then he settled in his room's balcony, where there was already a coffee ready for his consumption. Comfort. This was part of his daily routine. Minutes after he enjoys his coffee, he'll go down through his personalized gold-decorated elevator, and meet Noah at his spacious pool garden. By this time, Noah will hand him his schedule for the day, particularly a meeting with his property acquisition team to discuss how he can buy stuff as quickly as possible. Who would have thought that he would rise from the mud? He was just a bullied poor worker and now his problem is unlike the ordinaries. Yeah, perhaps ordinary people would like having his problem, for his day-to-day problem is how he can spend all his money quickly and fast according to what the system required. That's why he even come up with hiring a property acquisition team. 

And speaking of the system it was still quiet until now. Henley thinks. 

"Sir, unfortunately, the city hotel that you want was already booked," Noah informed Henley. 

Henley was eyeing the most luxurious and famous hotel in Elite City for his victory party and for the promotion of his Night Zero Club at the same time. 

"Why was it booked?"  Henley asked, frowning. 

" Uh...the date you choose was already booked by Noami and Adder's wedding anniversary party,"  Noah said. 

"Oh?"  Henley exclaimed. He couldn't get more excited. A challenge. The more that he wanted to book the hotel. 

"Schedule me a meeting with its owner,"  Henley instructed. 

----

Carlton Hotel is the most expensive and luxurious hotel in Elite City. It is the tallest hotel in the world with a private helipad and an underwater restaurant. But what attracted Henley is its exclusive pavilion for events. That's what he wanted to book for his party but Noami, his ex already booked it. Its pavilion has some kind of a royal vibe that has a large pool area which is overlooking the sea. Good thing, his team had quickly booked him a meeting with the owner. Now, he's here in Carlton Hotel for a negotiation. At the entrance, all the hotel's staff bow at him while deep inside they were intrigued about why he was here at Carlton Hotel. Henley just walked straight ahead, in his shade glasses while being guided by the hotel staff. A VIP, that's what he is. When he reach the hotel owner's office, Henley did not waste time. He uttered what he wants straight to the point. He wants to book the pavilion at his chosen date and he's willing to pay more just to get the booking. 

" Oh, but the Krux are family friends---" 

" There's no family when it comes to business, right Mr. Carlton? How about I'll pay for your hotel's entire month's income for a one-night use of the pavilion? Just the pavilion. It's just a little space of your hotel,"  Henley entices Mr. Carlton. 

Mr. Carlton was surprised at his lavish offer. Now, it was obvious on his face that he was having second thoughts. Seeing the expression on his face, Henley smirked. He knows that he's now winning. He signaled his staff to hand in the cash. His staff approach Mr. Carlton and opened the case full of money. 

" Cold cash," Henley muttered, smiling. 

And Mr. Carlton couldn't agree more.

The Party

He is making headlines for being the first person to celebrate the grandest party in the world, in the world's most expensive hotel. But his party was a controversy for this time it was already known how the hotel owner withdraw the Krux's bookings for him. Henley's team made sure that all the richest and most powerful in Elite City would come to his party. And he was sure that they will come not because they wanted to but because they are curious, perhaps because they even hate him. Who would not? Henley was now known as being the arrogant owner of Aurum Chateau, of Night Club Zero who seemed to despise the Elite residents, but he is a resident of Elite City. For many, Henley was a mystery, and a paradox to be fathom. Now, the people have one common question --Who is Henley Austen? How did he become rich? Where did he come from? 

And tonight, Henley arranged this special occasion to answer all those questions about him. 

The pavilion was decorated by the top event decorator. In the front, there was a chamber throne that added more to the royal vibe of the pavilion. The long tables were stretched long occupying spaces in the wide pavilion. The utensils on it were made of gold. Henley specially made to order these utensils using the golds he acquired from the Krux family mine company. And now he's displaying those here in his party to send a message to them. The party was elegantly perfect in all aspects. Now, the most awaited part of the event comes -- the introduction of the celebrant. Henley entered to the stage walking tall and proud, then, he settled on his chamber throne like a King while the host was introducing his name, hailing praises to his name. Right there on his chamber throne, Henley could clearly see how the guests were astounded by him. They couldn't believe what they heard from the host. 

How could a lowly mine worker ascend this quickly and become an influential resident of Elite City? 

Is it true that his mother died out of poverty? No wonder he's ruthless! 

What? He is Noami Krux's ex? 

Such revelations about him keep satisfied the guests' intrigue, and they couldn't be more entertained for the rest of the night. 

Now, the host asked him to give a speech. 

Henley greeted his guests and welcomed them to his party. And as a closing remark, he again uttered his name. Yeah, he wants them to remember him. This time, no more hiding. He wants them to remember the name of a person who would make them later suffer. 

"I am Henley Austen! Remember my name!"  Henley said.

"Cheers?"  he raised his glass, and the guests do the same too. 

Henley smiled at them while at the side of his eyes, he was satisfyingly looking at the Krux family who were at the table at the side. Good thing, Naomi and Adder were there. He could clearly see how their faces went pale because of shock then later see them grit their teeth in anger. 

"Time to eat!"  Henley announced. 

-----

Meanwhile

"Dad, isn't the material of these utensils came from our mine?"  Naomi asked Mr. Krux. Of course, they know their gold, they know their products. They're the only gold mine in the entire country. Mr. Krux clenched the fork. He's not answering. One thing is for sure, they have made business before with a bogus account, and that's Henley Austen. With the number of golds in front of them right now, plus the gold designs he saw in his Aurum Chateau, he could tell that he must have sold him lots of gold without them knowing that the buyer was Henley. 

"Why are we even invited here?"  Adder commented. 

" The entire Elite city residents are here,"  Noami replied. 

"We were invited here to be humiliated!"  Adder exclaimed, frowning. 

"See? Now they all know that he's your ex! And what angers me, even more, was he intentionally grabbed the booking of this pavilion to ruin our wedding anniversary!"  

"Shhh! Quiet! Don't make a scene here!"  Noami whispered forbidding his husband. 

"Don't shush me!"  Adder slammed the spoon on the table. 

"Enough!" Mr. Krux interrupted. 

He turned to Adder, " Hold your temper okay? Your embarrassing pictures at Night Club Zero were still in the headlines, remember?"  

Addder lowered his gaze and cooled down. 

"Now time for a royal dance!"  

The voice of the host interrupted the commotion at the table of Krux's family. 

This time, the guests were requested to participate in a mixer dance. It is a social dance that involves exchanging partners. 

"Let's dance instead,"  Noami invited her husband. 

From his chamber throne, Henley saw Noami and her husband going to the wide ballroom area. He guesses they will be joining the dance. 

"Sir, do you want me to accompany you to the dance floor?" 

It was Tori. She's the head of his property acquisition team. 

Tori was a dark-haired, stunning woman. She's undeniably attractive. He actually hired her for her strong personality and intimidating aura. This woman certainly knows how to play the games, and that's what he loves about her. Tori was a head turner in her velvet sequined sexy side slit evening gown. 

Henley smiled at him, " Sure, my pleasure,"  he replied. 

And they too headed to the ballroom area.

    Henley gazed at Tori's face. She's one seductress! Damn it! He thinks. They stepped into the dancing area. Henley could feel all the eyes staring at them. He's sure that they have gotten their attention. It could be that they are curious or they are awed by them. At the side of his eyes, he saw the Krux's family's face. They were frowning, perhaps envious. But there's one particular face that made him rejoice. It's satisfying to see Naomi's expression. Was it pain? Was it regret he saw in her eyes? Whatever it is, it delights him that she's hurting or regretful. She must. They started to dance as the classical music's whispered beat rumbled into their ears. Tori slid her right foot back while moving her other foot forward. She lowered herself until her dress touched the ground, and then abruptly rose to her feet with such force. Henley heard the guests gasp at Tori's show-off. This woman is making me proud! Henley thought to himself. Before leaping into the air, Tori extended he

    [System notification: Level 2 Task will begin anytime soon]Henley sighed. His emotions weren't ready for this. He's still on what happened a while ago on the dance floor. [Level 2 is still on spending however this time you can buy some items to level up your rank in the system. As of now you are in the worker rank, and again the highest rank one system user could achieve is being the Creator which no one in history had achieved.] Henley's eyes sparked at what he read on what seemed to be a hologram by his fingertips. Creator of the system! That intrigues me! [ Rank 1 - Worker Rank 2 - Lord Rank 3 - Noble Rank 4 - King Rank 5 - Creator ] So far, this is what the system has shown him. Henley wondered how something new was being introduced to him every time. So, it turns out that when he surpasses some levels that would alleviate his ranks too, for now, he's still on the worker rank. Well, at least with that rank, I am now enjoying some money and with that a little po

    Henley's fists clenched. How could this b*** so brazen to talk about my mother? He turned to Adder rushed at him and kicked his face. He even heard Naomi's horrified scream when she saw blood spitting out of his husband's mouth. Yet, he just coldly glances at her telling her as if her husband deserves it. Why not? It's Naomi in the first place who knows what really happened? After that, Henley stormed out of the parking area. Even Tori dared not talk to him while they were inside the car. It's obvious on his face that he's not in the mood. "I can't wait for the next day to have an update about the art I need to buy. I need a development now," Henley muttered with a cold tone. Tori didn't reply yet deep inside she's rattled about how they can buy Aula's masterpiece. She sighed a relief when her phone beeped. It was from one of Henley's acquisition teams. A photo and Aula's background were sent to her. "Uh, boss, this is what Aula's Délaissé looks like!" Tori showed the photo on

    [Commodities in exchange for stocks. Deliver all the commodities you obtain to the red gate in Old Port.] Okay, any commodities will do. I'm glad I'll be hitting two birds in one stone now. Henley thought to himself as he stared coldly at the already closed pharmacy in Elite City. The cold air that creeps into his nostrils gives him a sense of nostalgia. This place. Exactly at a time like this, he had the greatest disappointment of his life. If not for that pharmacy, and oh...if not for Naomi's betrayal, his mother would still be alive. Henley clenched his fists at the recall of those memories. "Hey, boss, this is the name of the manager assigned that day. It turns out that the manager even received a fee from Drex in exchange for her public statement," Tori informed him, showing him pictures and proofs. Henley recalled how he punished the staff involved in that day where he was set up. He already has had his payback on this pharmacy, he even bought one of its branches in Elite Ci

    "Cheers!" Tori muttered as she tossed her wine glass with Henley. They are now celebrating their win. Henley tossed his glass too, sipping his wine as he savored the city air. The ambience here from the top of his tower is overwhelming, and somehow fresh and satisfying. Perhaps it's the feeling of winning that pleasures him. He must admit, the city view is more enjoyable tonight because of the news he received -- the pharmacy that framed him up before is now suffering in the mud. Money...this gets things to work fast and easy! Henley thought to himself. "Hey, Tori, as the head of my property acquisition team, I want you to lead the guys to work harder," Henley said. Tori's brows furrowed, "Harder?" she asked. Henley nodded, " Yeah because I'm planning to buy the world!" he muttered with dreamy eyes. And she tossed his glass again with Tori, while the other one was astounded at what he uttered. [System Update!] Henley felt a message on his fingertips. So, he now excused hims

You may own land, laborers, or any properties, but all of those are needed to be acquired. To be the official lord of the system requires a certain number of things you own.] The system explains to Henley. Henley's brows furrowed. He expected that the ladder to ascension would be easy now that he's in level 3 but then it seems that he still needs to work out to be the lord of the system. Well, if that means acquiring, he's confident of that anyway. "I'm building my own pyramid now, would that count?" Henley asked. [Toottttt!]The system scanned. It's checking what Henley was asking.

    So it turns out that Aula's grandparents are the original and rightful owners of the coal mine, and so is the village around it. The entire land has been theirs until the Krux family took over it with the help of some Keres Wiscon. Henley's eyebrows raised discovering how the President's name was being dragged into this, so he did his further research. It turns out that Keres Wiscon, the President is not really close to the Krux family, it just that during that time, they have the same motive, for Mr. Krux, that's to get the land, and for Keres, that's to get rid of Aula's grandparents. So, they worked together to get what they both wanted, and in doing that, they needed a person to do the job, and that's Senator Bob. "Hmm.." Henley slammed the folder on his desk. " No wonder Aula is after the President, and she hated the Krux too," he mumbled. "So, are you really now at Aula's side?" Noah asked him.

    “Your contract with DZ entertainment is going to end this year, rumors are they don’t have plans to renew you,” Riva’s manager informed her. Riva just shrugs her shoulders as she sips her wine. She seemed like she didn't care. She’s got back up anyway. 10 years with DZ is already enough. “Should I tell the Pendragon?” her manager asked her. Riva’s eyebrows creased as she side eyed her manager. “Why should you?” she hissed. “This is not a problem anyway. I can handle this on my own,” she said. And the manager just lowered her head, and left even without Riva telling her to do so. She knows Riva. She knows her mood and attitude very well. If the job doesn’t only pay well, she won’t bother managing her anyway. Meanwhile, Riva pulled out her vape and began smoking while she’s thinking of what she's going to do next.

It’s not enough that you have the money,” Tori explained. “I gave the video files to you so you can study her, and plan your steps,” she added. Henley fell silent.
