After a few minutes of convincing, Peter was finally able to convince the woman not to walk out in anger. "What the heck?" Peter stared at pictures of himself all over the internet with a stunned expression on his face. "When did this happen all of a sudden." The woman called Farah grinned. "Young man, don't tell me you had no idea about this." "I really don't know how this came about." The woman suddenly laughed. "Haha, someone became a celebrity overnight but he has no idea about it? Tell me, do you really not know who that girl who committed suicide is?" Peter looked up at her and slowly shook his head. Farah snatched her phone from his hand and scrolled swiftly until she reached the said picture, then she handed the phone back to Peter. Peter read the comments and saw the picture, the certain comment that claimed he indeed broke the girl's heart caught his eyes. "I really don't know who this is." Peter suddenly exclaimed. Farah looked into his clueless e
Peter glanced at the notification in his view, then he tapped on the quests info.*Ongoing quest: Earn the system title City Lord!*His old quest of recruiting people had been completed and he had received a new quest.Peter had been clueless how to earn this title at first, however with the notifications he just received, Peter suddenly had an idea of how he would be able to earn that title.Smiling to himself he walked back to his car."Boss." A hefty man in a white shirt that clung to his massive muscles bowed when Peter emerged. The man was Rico, a powerful rank D martial artist Harry had hired from Brookesville, famous A ranked city far from Landville.Rico bowed and opened the backseat of the car for Peter who unhurriedly stepped inside."I've just received information from the people who accompanied Miss Samantha that they have met with a situation while buying a private school uptown." Rico reported as he got into the driver's seat."How about Daniel's side?""Daniel is doing
In the span of a few hours in the day, Peter had managed to snag a few more properties within the city.*Ding!**Host has received the system title 'Master negotiator!' a cash reward has been rewarded to host.**20,000,000 has been disbursed into host's account **120 points have been added to host's point balance.* *Ding!* *Host has received the system title 'The master spender!' a cash reward has been rewarded to host.**200,000,000 has been disbursed into host's account.**285 points have been added to host's point balance.*These series of notifications rang in Peter's head on several occasions during the day.That evening a man from the Stone family could be seen rushing into the hidden estate."Master! Master!!"Master Stone's eyes were dark as he got up from his seat in the couch in the living room."Why are you yelling? Speak properly, what happened?""Master, we have lost several properties we've been planning to purchase, all the owners said the exact same thing. They had
Within the large estate on the third floor, a fair skinned woman could be seen cleaning the tall glass windows.In the midst of doing this chore she suddenly stopped her actions as a familiar face caught her attention."It's him!"The man looked even more handsome and outstanding than the last time she had seen him, however she never forgot to recognize a face she'd once seen.The attractive woman's neck was laden with bruises that had turned blue some looking purple.Seeing Peter about to leave, the woman hurriedly dropped the cloth she was using to clean and ran downstairs. It was one of the rare nights when her superior was out celebrating due to the fact that he came into a lot of money and even gained a promise from some powerful people that he would be established as a big man in the capital if he sold all his properties to them.She ran out of the estate before Peter could enter his car."Excuse me!" She called after Peter who suddenly stopped.Turning around he met with the w
All of the Mayor's security men ran up to the rooftop of the Mayor's estate. They seemed to have seen a very important person, they all bowed respectfully."Governor!" A round figured short man wearing a dignified black suit stepped down from one of the helicopters that had landed on the helipad on the rooftop of the estate.The man glanced at all the security men bowing at him, without a word to them he spoke to his assistant who had gotten down behind him."Ah, I almost forgot about this city if not for that person who suddenly reminded me about it last night. Does that make me an incompetent Governor?" He suddenly asked in a manner unlike his position as a governor, he seemed completely carefree.But the assistant shivered, "Of course not sir. You're the best Governor this country has ever seen, other Governor's don't even dare compare to you."The assistant seemed to be currying favor, he spoke quickly and with the beads of sweat on his brows it was evident he was nervous."Hahah
"Y...Y...You...!" The Mayor couldn't form words, he kept stuttering as he pointed a finger at Peter in disbelief."Eh? You know him?" The governor asked curiously.Then with a fawning look he glanced at Peter, "My good friend, you know the Mayor?" He asked Peter instead since the Mayor was looking too stunned to reply."Yes Governor, he's the Mayor of this city, so of course I know him."The governor laughed and clapped his hands together."Hahaha, great, great! Things will run smoothly."Saying this he turned to the Mayor, "I'm leaving things in your hands. Whether the whole city is demolished and destroyed for reconstruction, it's no longer our business since it is now private property, I'll have the compensation money transferred to you to distribute to people."The Mayor could only nod, his eyes gleaming as he stared at Peter. So he had actually done it!He didn't just buy this city by amassing the properties through individuals, he had actually bought a whole city from the gover
The whole city of Landville was shaken by the sudden news that day.A whole city reduced to private property by a mysterious person. A lot of families who had given up everything because of the simple promise from the Stone family were left lost.News that the Stone family had left Landville overnight had surfaced.Almost everyone was left lost and broken.They had sold off all their properties to the Stone family and they were left with nothing, but they all had no right to complain because it was a legal sales transaction.Most people had almost fallen into despair until the former Mayor began to distribute compensations to each family.The few hundred millions might not have been enough to bring them all back up. Everyone pleaded with the Mayor to be allowed to buy back some of their old properties, however the Mayor told them the new owner was uninterested in selling."The owner is magnanimous, he has agreed to leave the city as it is. Be it stores in malls, and company building
Eight days later.Peter was enjoying the sun sitting on the rooftop of the penthouse suite in the Paradise hotel when someone knocked on the door of the rooftop terrace.Peter took off his sunglasses and turned around to see Samantha.He had just finished swimming so his robe was just hung loosely around his body as he laid relaxed on a recliner.Samantha's face turned a deep shade of red as she saw him."What is it Samantha?"Peter, oblivious of her reaction asked.Samantha looked flustered, she couldn't find the words until she averted her gaze towards the glimmering blue pool that showed the reflection of the sunlight, only then was she able to speak."President, someone is here to see you."Peter frowned, "Someone came here to see me? Who is it?"He had come to his penthouse just to have a relaxing evening after a full week of work. He had to be in several places at once all over the city sometimes, in the end he hired more and more people on his team and sent Rico and Harry out
