"It wouldn't be a great idea to trick her like that." He really didn't want to make a bad impression on Penny. "No problem, Mike." Luther continued. "If Penny helps you pay the bill, you can use it as an excuse to get closer to her. You could even connect with her online to arrange to repay her and to get to know her better." Mike got really excited by this idea.He slapped Luther on the back and said, "I like the way you think. It's a good thing I brought you two guys along." When Kevin heard this, he quickly headed back to the VIP room. As he got to the door, Penny was walking out. Kevin came up with a plan of his own. As Penny brushed against him, he used the light touch that he'd learned about in the secret guide and took her phone and wallet.Let's see what Mike does now. Kevin smirked as he slipped the items into his jacket. With all his posturing, he isn't really that strong. Let's see him show his true colors. When Kevin returned to his seat and sat down, Mike and his two budd
"How much do you want?" His father asked him, as expected, Wyatt started to freak out. Mike said, "You think money grows on trees? Didn't I just give you that much a few days ago?" How could Wyatt Tripp not go ballistic? He'd worked his entire life to build up his business and now his son was just giving his money away. Mike was frustrated by his father's response. He'd only gotten in this situation because he was trying to get elected student leader.If his father wasn't willing to help, he might have to tell his classmates the truth. "What are you talking about, Dad? School’s going great. And my teachers are fantastic." Mike told his father, laying it on thick. "It's definitely a serious program."“What the hell are you talking about? When did I ask you about school?" Wyatt shouted into his phone. I don't give a crap if you like the place or not. "Don't worry, Dad, I'm doing great." He continued. "But it would really help if you could transfer some money into my account.""I'll tra
After about five days, she would be like any other normal person, and she wouldn't be able to use medicinal herbs to regain what she had lost. I can't believe that this pill can do all that, Kevin marveled. His thoughts were interrupted by an unfamiliar ringtone. For a second, he wondered if there was a burglar in the house, but then he realized that the sound was coming from his pocket.Who would be making a video call to Penny in the middle of the night? Could it be her boyfriend? Kevin wondered. By reflex, he answered the call. A moment later, he saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her closet picking out clothes. Oops, didn't mean to see that, Kevin thought to himself.She looked very familiar to him, but he just couldn't place her. While he was looking at her, trying to figure out who she was, the woman turned around to see why nobody was talking yet. When she saw Kevin, she screamed and disconnected the call.That's when Kevin realized that she was the young woman whose gr
CHAPTER ONEThe room was adorned and decorated with crimson velvet drapes cascading from the ceiling, crystal chandeliers on marble floor and priceless art hanged beautifully, adorning the walls.Kevin stared intensely at the art as he buttoned his shirt, appreciating its beauty when his phone rang,“Hello, who is this?” Kevin couldn’t help but ask.The individual on the interface exhibited a high sense of impatience.“Hey! Kevin, it’s me. It worked! You’re rich again”Kevin discerned the voice as belonging to one of his acquaintance in the realm of investments, Jonathan.“Hey Jonathan, slow down. What worked?” he was confused“C’mon! Your investment in Sunset Haven group paid off! You now have more money than your entire family! You’re rich again my friend!”Kevin found Jonathan’s words utterly incredulous. They seemed too perfect to be real.“I don’t believe you, Jonathan. How did that happened? Is this a prank?”Jonathan’s words were too good to be true.“My friend, it is real! Why
Fifteen minutes later…Kevin finished washing the dishes and checked his watch,“This is past five. Lily should be home by now.”Walking down the hall way, Kevin heard the sound of the TV coming from the living room.Taking a deep breath, Kevin adjusted his shirt and entered the living room,“Hi babe, welcome home.”Kevin greeted his wife, Lily.Sitting across the couch in front of him, Lily lifted her hands and politely waved.Staring at Lily’s bright eyes, luscious full lips and smooth skin, Kevin thought to himself,“I still get butterflies every time I look at her. Lily is gorgeous and her beauty is undeniable but, that’s not why I love her. She is the most patient and hard-working woman I’ve met. I mean, these past few years, her dedication has remained steady as she built and expanded her company.”He was deep in his thoughts when a sudden, raucous voice snapped him out of his reverie.“Hey! Kevin”The only person that could sound wild like that was Lily’s best friend, Monica.
“Lily, is there something you’re keeping from me? What exactly is going on at work? You seem more stressed than usual.”Lily sighed“My company received a new contract last month and there was an error in the calculation of the data. Our products did not meet the requirements so we need to compensate them with seven million. My company’s funds will not able to turn around which means that, I might need to at least get four million dollars of investment in a week, otherwise my company will most likely go bankrupt. I can’t do that to my employees.”Monica’s eyes widened,“How are you supposed to find someone willing to invest four million dollars in a week!?”Just then, Lily turned around and sighted Kevin standing in the hallway, with a tear falling down her soft cheeks, Lily whispered.“Kevin, I’m sorry to say this but Monica and I need some privacy. Can you please give me some space?”Feeling distraughted by his wife’s pain, Kevin nodded“Of course, I’ll go back to the bedroom. It’s
CHAPTER FOUR Kevin found his black card. It’s been over two years since he last touched it. Even his wife Lily didn’t know the card existed just as she didn’t know a lot of things about his past. “I’ve got this” Kevin said as he turned the black card around and dialed the VIP number on the back. A sweet comported voice answered, “Hello Mr. Williams, welcome to the black card private VIP customer service. May I ask if you need any help?” Kevin responded back, “Hello, I’d like to check the balance of my card.” Kevin seemed very excited. “Of course… Just one moment please.” “Hello, Mr. Williams, are you still there?” Kevin replied almost immediately, “Yes, I am. Would you be able to check my bank balance please?” The customer service attendant hesitated for a while before responding, “Hummm… Mr. Williams, I apologize but the balance on your black card is unfortunately too big for me to handle over the phone. It appears that the digits are higher than our computer is able to
Kevin helped lift Lily onto the back of his motorbike. Lily wrapped her arms around Kevin’s waist as he thought to himself,“I love this feeling. From this moment forward, I’m going to start steaming our relationship. I’m going to be the man who Lily wants me to be, the man that she deserves.”Stopping at the red light, Kevin turned around to find Lily biting her bottom lip.With a gentle sigh, Kevin asked“How are you feeling? You look great but I know you… you only bite your bottom lip when you’re stressed.”Lily nodded,”I am a little bit stressed… I checked the reports this morning and I confirmed my worst nightmare. The company isn’t going to get any extra investor’s support which means that by the end of the week, we’re going to officially declare bankruptcy. This morning, the major shareholders will be holding a meeting and as the company’s chairman, I have to be there. To be honest, I just feel so terrible about the poor employees that will be loosing their jobs… I mean, it’s
