Days went by fast with how busy Liam was.

On day two of the promotion, Olive Park managed to pull in $2300 which landed Liam with $48,300. The increase in income boosted Liam’s confidence in his plan.

On day three, the queue of customers was so massive that it reached the main street and even alerted the local news station to cover a special piece in the local news.

And by day seven, the entire internet was filled with news of Olive Park where customers can eat a scrupulous two-course meal with just a dollar.

Multiple influencers, food critics and even a few less known celebrities had visited Olive Park to try the food, further bringing the story of Olive Park into the public.

“Did you know about the story of Olive Park? The owner of the restaurant was so confident about his food that he loaned half a million dollars for this marketing stunt! If there’s no returning customers after the discount is over, he will be bankrupt from the loan!”

“Seriously? The cost of ingredients itself would cost more than a dollar! This guy is either mad or he is that confident of his food. Now my interest is piqued! I want to taste his food and see if he’s worth the buzz!”

“Did you hear? There’s a real-life princess working at Olive Park. The way she smiled at me was so mesmerizing! 

“You mean the waitress, Penelope? She was smiling at me, you idiot!”

“Look at yourself in the mirror, there’s no way she is interested in you!”

“Enough! Do you guys have a video of her?”

“There’s a tiktok video of her on the official page of Olive Park. The video has already garnered 10 million views.”

Buzz on the streets generated positive feedback and with the explosive popularity of both Olive Park and Penelope, Liam’s income had grown exponentially as well.

In seven days, he had already earned himself over three hundred thousand in total.

Nonetheless, due to the expensive operating cost such as ingredients, and re-investing every dollars he had earned, he had not achieved the goal of earning $200,000 in net profit.

***

Finally on the eighth day. The day after the promotion event had ended.

“Are you sure you don’t want to pick up your phone? I’m sure it must be urgent seeing how frequent your phone is ringing.” Penelope asked, glancing at Liam.

“It’s nothing important. It’s just annoying flies that are calling me. I will return the call after today is over.” Liam answered while looking at the entrance of Olive Park before turning off his phone.

The eighth day was the day when the prices of Olive Park’s menu items returned back to normal prices. It was also the moment of truth.

Whether Liam could topple those that wronged him would all depend on this first step that he took.

Clenching his fist, he waited nervously with Giorgio, Penelope and the rest of the staff working in Olive Park. Before long, a silent atmosphere filled the restaurant as the anticipation of everyone grew.

A significant time had passed since opening hours began, but the entrance of the restaurant remained motionless.

“Did I fail?” Liam mumbled as there was no sight of customers arriving. However, he was proved to be wrong very soon.

“Ring!”

“Is the restaurant open?” Right before Liam had given up, the doorbell above Olive Park’s door rang and a family of four entered.

With the arrival of the family, many more customers started to stream into the restaurant. 

“Welcome to Olive Park! How may I help you, sir?” With the greetings of Penelope, the cogs of the restaurant started to turn at full speed.

Customers were being served, and a variety of food were pushed out at a high speed.

Soon, even Liam, who had just recovered from his injuries, was forced by Penelope to act as a temporary waiter due to the massive influx of customers.

***

“Thanks for coming. We hope to see you again!”

With the sending off of the last customer, Liam, Giorgio and Penelope sat down together to discuss the future of the restaurant.

“So, what’s the result of today’s earnings?” Liam asked Giorgio nervously. 

The turnout of customers was impressive but Liam was still unsure if he had completed the mission given by the system.

“Well… I guess we are rich! $59445 for the first day!” Giorgio declared.”

“What? Isn’t this abnormal? How could the restaurant earn such a large amount in just a single day?” Liam questioned the validity of the earnings.

“That’s because there was a pretty lady who tipped fifty thousand dollars to the restaurant. I’ve asked her why she would do that, but she just replied with a smile.” Penelope interjected.

Whatever the case was, Liam could finally breathe a sigh of relief. However, the more he thinks about the mission, the more he feels that he was simply lucky.

Without the $50,000 tip by the mysterious lady to the restaurant, he would fail the mission with just falling a little short of the $200,000 required.

That was such a close call!

After receiving the 70% share of $59445 into his bank account, Liam instantly switched on his phone.

It took some time for his outdated smartphone to load, but it was worth the wait for Liam.

When the balance of his bank account showed, adrenaline filled his body.

He had become a millionaire!

{Chase Bank Account Received $1248345. New balance is $1249300}

    “I’ve come as you’ve requested. What do you want from me? Shoot it!” As Liam walked into the Henson’s family manor, he asked in a cold tone.Along with his brother-in-law and mother-in-law, Grace was present as well. With Grace’s mother sitting in a dining chair, Allen and Grace were standing beside her.“Do you see the divorce papers at the table? Sign it!” Grace pointed to the table and demanded. “Andrew Mason from the prestigious Mason family will be marrying my daughter this upcoming month. You are going to sign the papers right now and stop clinging to my daughter like a bum! Or else, hmph! Breaking a leg or two of yours won’t be too difficult for us!” Liam’s mother-in-law threatened Liam.“Fine for me. But let me say this. You all will regret doing this to me!” Liam said coldly as his eyes stared at all of them.“You!” Grace’s mother pointed at Liam angrily and wanted to retort, but ultimately backed down.

    It was a wooden horse made of modern dark wood. The horse was roughly the size of a human’s palm.What’s peculiar about the horse though was the poor workmanship of the horse and how ugly it was. When placed together with the rest of the attractive counterfeit antiques that the vendor was trying to sell, it stood out like a sore thumb.“Hey, shop owner, what’s the story with this wooden horse?” Liam asked the shop owner while showing him the ugly horse carving.”“You mean this horse?” The shop owner squinted his eyes and observed Liam for a while before replying. “That’s a family heirloom passed down by my great grandfather. It was a palace toy that was played by the famous emperor Kang at around 500 B.C ! If you like it, I will sell this beloved antique of mine for thirty thousand dollars. No more and no less!”“Come on now. You know it’s a bullshit story.” Liam laughed. It was obvious the vendors in Monro street were trying to jack up prices to fool the customers.Nonetheless, it w

    As Liam turned around, a sweet aroma fragrance filled his nostrils and he was awestruck by the owner of the sweet voice.The owner of the voice looked to be in her mid twenties. Sporting long hazel brown hair with a simplistic braid woven together with interlaced strands of her hair tucked behind her left ear, she looked incredibly bewitching.However, what made her stand out was her transcendental beauty. Her small face was as if it was personally shaped and carved out by a goddess with meticulous care throughout the whole carving process.Her thin, long, and slightly curved eyebrows, and her sharp and small nose were like works of art, whereas her small cherry mouth was like the work of a devil, tempting men to taste it at the cost of sacrificing everything.In addition, her large hazel eyes with its long eyelashes looked extremely seductive and mesmerizing. It was as if they could suck out the soul of anyone that got lost in her eyes.Wearing a Louis Vuitton black slim dress with

    Ashley was taken aback when Liam identified her. She had never thought that a poor-looking guy like Liam would know who she was.Furthermore, judging from how confident he was about the value of the horse carving, it seemed like he had found out the secret hidden inside.In an instant, Liam became extremely mysterious to her.“What is your name?” Ashley asked.“Liam Walker.” Liam replied.“You are the mastermind behind Olive Park’s genius marketing?” Ashley asked urgently, her eyes shone brightly when she heard who Liam was.“That’s right.” Liam gave the confirmation. Although he was surprised that Ashley knew that he was the one behind the marketing stunt when he pushed Giorgio to the front.“Did you receive the fifty thousand tip that I gave to the restaurant?” Ashley asked.“You are the customer that tipped fifty thousand dollars? Why did you do that?” Liam was surprised. He still remembered that it was because of her tip that allowed him to successfully complete the system’s missi

    “What is the meaning of this?” Liam stepped close to Ashley and whispered into her ear. He had no intention of joining into the Flander family’s mess.“Do me a favor. Help me this one time.”Ashley pleaded as she turned around and hugged Liam. Her action gave Liam a great shock. In addition, before Liam could react, she kissed Liam on his cheek, denying him a chance to refuse her.“Grandmother, let me introduce Liam to you!”Following Ashley’s introduction, Liam could only grit his teeth and stepped forward. Ashley was his only ticket to the gateway of the antique world, and he definitely wouldn’t want to lose it.And to be fair, who could reject a request from such a pretty woman?‘Ah! Heck it! What’s the worst that could happen?’ He thought to himself.And like he had expected, the entire ballroom turned completely silent when they took a clearer look at him. Everyone in the ballroom had dropped what they were doing and could only stare at him. This included Ashley’s grandmother.

    “Thank you.” Liam was surprised, but grateful to Ashley.His reputation as the disgraced son-in-law of the Henson family had been so widespread and entrenched among the others’ hearts that he did not have any hope that anyone would believe in him.However, Ashley believed him. He was touched.“Ashley! You are being deceived by his lies! How could you be so foolish? His ex-wife has already revealed this hypocrite’s true self to us!” William Flander moved up to Ashley and held her hands, trying to convince her that Liam was a fraud that had lied to her.However, Ashley shook his hands off and ignored him.“Miss Ashley! I swear that what I had said about this scum is the absolute truth. He had already deceived me and my family! Don’t make the same mistakes as me!” Grace Henson persuaded with a sincere expression, but despite her best effort to frame Liam, Ashley did not listen.“Pak!”Instead, to everyone’s horror, she gave a hard slap to Grace! The force of her slap was so great that a

They have been on the rise lately. My daughter, you need to approach Andrew Mason and strike a conversation with him after this party.” “But, Dad! He has a fiancee! He even brought her along with him to this celebration party!” “Silly girl! Didn’t you see how he treated his fiancee? Did you see how he was not at all concerned with her even after she was slapped by Ashley Flander? That means that their marriage is strictly political!” Once the luminous pearl bracelet was revealed to everyone in the ballroom, commotion arose from the crowd as they marveled at the magnificent piece of jewelry. Although the people in the ballroom represented t

    "Dump it?" Damian Flander unconsciously repeated Liam's words without giving them much thought. He was bewildered and confused by Liam's choice of words. Wasn't Liam supposed to be begging for mercy instead? It took him a while to grasp the meaning behind Liam's words, and when he finally did, his eyes widened in shock. At this point, there can only be one thing that Liam could be referring to that could be dumped! And that was Flanders’ Group stocks! “What do you mean by that?” Damian Flander shouted at Liam, pointing his index finger at him firmly, demanding an explanation. However, in response to Damian Flander's menacing expression, Liam merely shrugged and smiled before pointing at one of the large LED screens that was installed on the surrounding buildings, signaling him to look at the screen. Damian's heart was overwhelmed by an ominous feeling as he observed Liam's unwavering confidence. His unease deepened upon hearing the abrupt gasps coming from the crowd as well. Fi

Just a little bit more! $250 is the target price which Liam Walker will be forced to buy back the stocks he shorted!

    Complete silence descended upon the press conference as everyone remained in a state of blank anticipation following Liam's powerful declaration. The audience, including the bodyguards, held their breath as they closely watched the battle between Liam and Damian Flander. Even Damian Flander himself watched Liam with fear and anxiety as he anticipated a violent retaliation from Liam after finding out that Liam was part of the notorious Walker family. A full minute elapsed swiftly with nothing unfolding. With all the focus of everyone on him, Liam continued to maintain his calm demeanor, standing alongside Ahsley, shielding her from potential harm. Soon, five minutes had passed by and the crowd began to gradually become restless with nothing noteworthy happening. People were bewildered. Didn’t Liam declare that he would punish Damian Flander? A significant number of them started to doubt Liam, suspecting whether he was truly a member of the Walker family or if it was a false claim

    “Stop! Raise your hands and display them! Any sudden movement and we will be forced to incapacitate the both of you!” Motivated by the substantial rewards pledged by Damian Flander, the head of the guards issued this command as all the nearby guards overcame their fear of Liam and drew their guns from their holsters.Normally, discharging firearms in a densely populated area with innocent bystanders is strongly discouraged. However, the prospect of a substantial reward had caused those guidelines to be disregarded entirely.With the barrels of their guns aimed at Liam, multiple guards started to step forward to apprehend Liam and Ashley. If Liam was to make any sudden movement, the guards would not hesitate to open fire immediately.Even though Liam had demonstrated superhuman strength and prowess in close combat, all the guards were convinced that he would be no match for their firearms.Furthermore, with Liam encircled by guns aimed at him from all directions, the likelihood of his

    “Ah!” Ashley screamed out when one of the guards that surrounded her started charging towards her at full speed.She tried to flee from her spot but before she could even move her feet, she realised that the assailant had already seized her arm.“Let go of me!” With her arm in his grip, she made a desperate attempt to break free with all her strength. However, her act of resistance only seemed to infuriate Damian's Flander guard instead of helping her escape.Raising his hand with rage, the guard’s fist came crashing down towards Ashley’s face to teach her a lesson.Even though Ashley could anticipate the assailant's fist heading her way, she found herself powerless to defend against it. The substantial strength gap between her and the trained guard was insurmountable for her to overcome!Accepting her fate, she tightly shut her eyes, expecting a punch to land on her face.However, the assailant's punch never arrived.

    “Stop it! Stop laughing, you imbeciles! This is not funny at all.” In the press conference, Damian Flander bemoaned his frustration and discontent while jumping up and down in a fit of anger.His face bore an unsightly appearance, marked by bloodshot eyes and a furious expression. Clenching his teeth and fists in anger, his face was heavily distorted with rage.With a hint of madness in his eyes, his current expression was a far cry from his enthusiastic self at the beginning of the press conference. His reputation that he painstakingly built up was ruined.How? Just what kind of sorcery did Ashley cast? Everything in the press conference had gone awry after her appearance! Today was meant to be the day of his coronation as the king! He was supposed to be the king of the world, not a major laughing stock for the public!As he shifted his gaze and spotted his ineffectual son who had gone into a daze, he cursed even more vehemently inwardly.

    Following the collective gasp of disbelief from the entire nation in response to the astounding scene before them, an uncomfortable silence descended upon the press conference.Nearly every man, including the online users, who witnessed the astonishing scene instinctively touched their groin area to confirm the integrity of their own genitals as they gulped in unison.A few of them even went to the extent of visually confirming that everything remained unchanged despite being in a public setting.Looking at the unexpected response of the crowd, Damian Flander shifted his gaze to look at William Flander. When he saw that William Flander was no longer a true man, his face turned incredibly ugly. He could not believe his eyes.“This…This… How is this possible!!” Damian Flander exclaimed, pointing at William Flander's groin area.He wanted to demand an answer from Willaim Flander immediately on what had happened, but an emotionless monotone voice echoed in the vicinity, interrupting him.
