2024-10-29 19:42:56[VERSAILLES RESTAURANT. MIAMI FLORIDA. NOON]
The woman with a melon-seeded face, black hair and an appearance of 85 points, casually glanced at Damien who was seated on the opposite side, drinking coffee, a look of disdain appeared on her face.
For a while, the woman used a somewhat arrogant tone and said;
“So this is all you can afford now? It is a pity that you have been reduced to such a state. If you are hungry, I can order better food for you, I earn an annual salary of two hundred thousand dollars ($50,000).”
Although Damien was a bit handsome, Helen could not help but have a look of disdain on her face. This man had once tried to woo her, luckily she didn't fall for his words of a bright future, hence she will be here having coffee and soda biscuits for breakfast. Helen clicked her tongue in arrogance picked up the glass of juice in front of her and drank it casually.
Damien had to admit that although Helen was indeed beautiful, her lofty tone and disdainful expression were now all Damien could see. Why should others always look down on him?
The two sat opposite each other with nothing to say, and the atmosphere became a little dull for a while. At this time Damien's phone vibrated rapidly. He took it out of his pocket, this got him a snort from the lady opposite him.
Looking at his phone, he saw a strange message.
[Ding! The system is fully activated. Awarded welcome gifts, do you wish to receive them?]
Damien could not help but frown as this was somewhat unusual. What welcome gift? He never applied for anything online.
'Hah! These mobile phone ads are something.'
On a normal day, Damien would have already turned off the ad. But at this time, Damien who was already bored and a bit curious decided to go along and pressed the 'OK' icon.
He wanted to see what content would appear next that he could use to pass the time as he did not intend to go back to the Davidson mansion just yet.
Ding!
The next moment the phone's screen flashed red, and they returned to normalcy a few seconds later.
«Ding! Congratulations, you just received twenty thousand dollars.»
«Ding! Congratulations, you just received ten thousand dollars.»
«Ding! Congratulations, you just received ten thousand dollars.»
Damien could not help but wonder; is this a program that keeps giving out fake awards?
Thinking of this, Damien wanted to switch off his phone and then simply head home. However at this time, a new message popped up, and he received two text messages from his bank.
"Wells Fargo Bank: Credit alert; twenty thousand dollars"
"Wells Fargo Bank: Credit alert; ten thousand dollars"
"Wells Fargo Bank: Credit alert; ten thousand dollars"
Damien was startled. These three amounts turned out to be the exact amount this ad sent me.
'This... Isn't this just an advertisement!? How come it seems so real!?'
His previous downcast expression vanished like magic, and a wide smile played on his lips.
«Host has only received three welcome gifts out of ten. Does Host wish to receive the remaining seven?» this message popped up on the screen of his phone. With excitement gleaming in his eyes, Damien pressed 'Yes'.
«Ding! Congratulations, you just received thirty thousand dollars.»
«Ding! Congratulations, your Wells Fargo Bank account has been upgraded to Diamond tier.»
«Ding! Congratulations, you just received fifty thousand dollars.»
«Ding! Congratulations, you just obtained professional car driving skills. Embedding skill into Host's consciousness.»
«Ding! Congratulations, you have just received twenty thousand dollars.»
Damien's expression went from joy to complicated, then to bewilderment, and finally fear. 'Damn! Where the heck did this cheat code come from!? What's happening to me!? Did I rob the U.S. bank or something in my previous life!? What foolishness, there was no United States of America a few hundred years ago.'
At the same time, the bank kept sending SMS messages.
Helen Patel, who was sitting across from him frowned slightly when she saw that Damien hadn't spoken in a while, but had been staring at his phone with a wide smile on his face.
Helen couldn't help but crane her neck and glanced at Damien's phone screen.
«Ding! Congratulations, you just received five dollars.»
'Tsk!'
Helen's heart burst with anger while her expression was that of utmost contempt.
'Hmph! Imbecile! I am a beautiful young lady with a high education and a high income. He is now so poor that he will foolishly grin at a measly five-dollar gift card.' Helen thought to herself, then turned to the still-smiling Damien, she couldn't help but be disgusted by him. Helen stood up and said coldly;
“I can't help but admit that I made a good decision by rejecting your advances then, I have seen just how wretchedly poor you are, and I truly pity Ms Amelia for her choice of husband. I have better things to do than to entertain you. Goodbye.” Helen then stood up and left.
«Ding! Congratulations on getting a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ»
Damien was taken aback by this message. Damn! A Lamborghini Aventador!? How was he going to claim this price?
«Greetings Host. I am Ophelus, the system of fortune. The host has received all welcome gifts. There is still twenty-three hours fifty-nine minutes to the next Award.»
«Ding! For every ten thousand dollars Host spends, an undisclosed award is received.»
«Ding! The system is dormant now.» and the phone went off. Damien slowly processed all that had just happened while he put his phone back into his pocket. At this time he found a car key in his pocket. 'Lamborghini car key'
WTF!
'I can understand the money being transferred into a bank account, but how the hell did the car key get into my pocket?'
At this time many people stood outside the restaurant, they were all staring at the super sports car parked in front of the restaurant with excitement gleaming in their eyes.
“Oh my God that's a Lamborghini!”
“Furthermore it is a Lamborghini big bull, it's worth at least ten million dollars!”
“Anyone know who the owner is? I wish to get adopted by him!”
Soon an internet celebrity girl in hot revealing clothes boldly walks up to the Lamborghini and begins to take selfies.
Helen looks at the super sports car with envy on her face.
'I will do my best to charm the rich boss who owns this. I will marry him as soon as proposes.'
Just then Damien walked out of the restaurant. When Helen saw him, her face immediately reverted to that of contempt.
'Who knows where this leech is going now? Probably back to his rich wife to leech on her.' she then turned to Damien.
“Damien, I apologize, I would have loved to drive you home, but I'm afraid you will dirty my car. You see, I own a BMW.” while talking, Helen raised the BMW car key in her hand.
'Hmph! I own a BMW car, but he can't even afford cab fare.'
“Don't trouble yourself,” Damien said with a smile. He then took out the Lamborghini car key and pressed it lightly. The car lights came on and the horn honked.
Damien strode to the front of the car, opened the door of the car and sat down. Although Damien had never driven a car before, somehow he knew exactly what to do and how to do it. It felt as if he had been driving for years.
Damien placed the key at the ignition interlock, turned it and the car started. With a kick of the accelerator, the Lamborghini shot out like a cannonball.
Damien left without sparing a glance at Helen. Meanwhile, Helen could not believe what she had just seen. How.. when.. isn't he supposed to be poor!? She was completely taken aback as she saw Damien leave in the sports car. Is he now super rich!?

Damien drove the Lamborghini bull, galloping all the way. He was like a dazzling laser light, attracting attention wherever he went.After a while, Damien came to a public parking lot. He stepped out of the car, with a driving permit and a registration certificate with his name written on it.“Damn! This is too good to be true. Perhaps I'm still lying by the alley battered up and all this is just a dream.” Damien could not help but wonder if all these were truly real. He had just gone from a penniless live-in son-in-law to a Lamborghini owner.. all in a few minutes.At this time Damien's phone vibrated again.“Huh!?

The cab stopped in front of the Davidson residence. Damien came out, paid the cab driver and turned towards the mansion.He then walked towards the front door. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard some boisterous laughter coming from the inside.“Young master Seth, since you are so sincere about Amelia, we can be straightforward. Let us just settle on a date.”Damien was stunned. He reckoned that the voice belonged to Joana; his mother inlaw and Amelia's mother.Missus Joana, you're being too polite. Since we're going to be family in the future, don't be so formal. Just call me by my name.” a very familiar voice sounded in Damien's ear. This was a voice he could never forget in his lifetime; the voice of the man who sent thugs to kill him.“Sure, sure, you're so young and eloquent. Amelia is so lucky to have met you! As her parents, we can rest assured now!” Joana's voice was heard.“However, I heard her husband..” Seth's voice trailed off as he was inclining to the fac

“Jordan! Stand down!” Seth's voice came from the inner room. Even he had felt the massive killing intent Damien had released and he involuntarily shivered. He knew a confrontation would result in his loss, so the best thing was to let the Davidsons deal with this.“This is a family affair. Go out first.” Mister Davidson then came out to check out the cause of all the debacle taking place in his residence.Jordan reluctantly but obediently withdrew his hand. He knew his boss was trying to leave a good impression on the Davidsons, so he only glowered at Damien again and then left.Amelia's parents were full of resentment, but they did not dare get physical with Damien; the scene of Jordan being frightened by Damien was very fresh in their minds. Damien's terrifying gaze intimidated them, and even the brutish Jordan had some scruples about Damien. However as they looked at Damien's cheap clothes and calm expression that was almost the same as the past, their worries vanished.'I was thin

“You!” Seth immediately flew into a rage. No one had ever dared to be so arrogant toward him! And now a bug he could swat out is being so high and mighty in front of him? Even directly telling him to leave!? Is the world going crazy or did he wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning!?The Davidsons were just as furious as him as they angrily charged forward to surround Damien, as though they were going to hit him. Just as the conflict was getting heated, someone pushed the door open and entered.“W.. what's going on?”Damien's heart palpitated and his body stiffened. He will always know the owner of this voice even in his dreams. He stood still in place without turning around. He had imagined and even rehearsed how he would break the news of his new life to Amelia countless times in his head during his walk back to the Davidson Mansion. But when he heard her gentle voice, Damien realized that he could not bring himself to explain the Fortune system to her, and now coupled wit

“Don't bother arguing!” Joana immediately screeched.“You were penniless and had nothing to even aid you in your travel. I can't imagine that after we were kind enough to let you marry into our family and provide you with food and a roof over your head, yet you stole our money when we let our guard down and absconded!”Damien frowned and could not be more astounded at the atrocities this woman had spewed against him.. no wonder Amelia was seething with hatred earlier. The only path here is to explain and clear his name, hopefully Amelia will believe him.“No such thing happened. I don't even know where your father keeps his money!” Damien tried to reason with Amelia.“Nonsense! You stole half a grand from us this morning before going off to meet Young Master Seth here!” Joana interjected harshly before turning to look at Amelia's father, Carter Davidson.“Tell us; did he steal our money, or am I making all these up!?”“Hmph! He married into our family, yet stole fifty thousand dollars

Joana's presumptuous behaviour made Amelia feel very uncomfortable.“Mother, I have already told you several times that I won't marry Mister Roach.” she then turned to look at Seth.“Mister Roach, you come from a privileged family, and there are many girls who like you. I'm already married, and I don't deserve it, so you should not waste any more time on me.”Joana was so infuriated that she pinched Amelia several times and barked.“Why are you so muddled!? Seth is such an eligible man. You're lucky he fancies you!” then she turned to apologize to Seth.“Young master Seth, we have spoiled Amelia rotten. Sometimes, she's thick in the head, so please don't mind her! Don't worry. I have the final say in this household.”Seth smiled faintly and pretended to be nonchalant.“It's alright, Joana. I believe Amelia will believe in my sincerity one day.” however, he was extremely displeased.'I, Seth Roach, have never been blatantly rejected by a woman before! She's just a married lady. Why is

Damien had just seen Ella today, how could he have prepared a present in advance when he didn't even know Amelia was going to adopt the child from the orphanage? Just as he was about to think of what to say, the system's robotic voice rang in his head.«Ding!System sense's Host's complicated emotion. Deploying the moonstone bracelet.Moonstone bracelet description: a piece of the moon, capable of enhancing a person's Will and also eliminating fatigue as well as stabilising emotions.Worth: Three million dollars ($3,000,000).Object: Tradable.»Damien put his hand in his pants pocket and felt a bead bracelet. He brought out the bracelet from his pocket and gave it to Ella.“Happy Birthday, Ella. Daddy wishes you to grow up safely and happily.”Although Damien had obtained this gift from the system and its description suggested it was extremely worthy, it still looked like an ordinary bead bracelet to people.Charlotte reached out and snatched the bead bracelet.

Seth was so astonished by Damien's aura that he involuntarily took a step backwards. By the time reacted, he was vexed and infuriated. He was frightened by a good-for-nothing. Although it was only for a moment, it was still a huge insult!“Shut up! What do you know? Even if Young master Seth made a mistake and bought the wrong thing, it was not deliberate! What nonsense are you spouting about radioactivity? A loser like you knows nothing!” Joana yelled at Damien.One of the relatives with a beer belly stood up and chimed in“Exactly! I've never heard of heinrichite before. How can a good-for-nothing like you know what it is? Don't make up a name and try to fool us with it!”Damien's eyes were icy cold. Joana was Amelia's mother so he could not humiliate her, but the other relatives were different. He walked towards the relative with a beer belly and said“Since you're saying that I'm making up stories and that this thing is harmless, try it yourself.” Damien handed the diamond debris

He had the Fortune System, an AI inside his brain that granted him cash and skills, but he still needed a plan."Fortune, I need your help," Damien said aloud, knowing the AI could hear him."Hello, Damien," the Fortune System replied, its voice echoing in his mind. "What do you need assistance with?""I want to start a company, but I have no idea where to begin," Damien admitted. "I need a building, a team, a business plan... everything.""Leave that to me," the Fortune System said. "I'll provide the funds and skills you need. But first, we need to find the perfect building."Damien's eyes lit up as the Fortune System began to display images of potential buildings in his mind."Wow, these are great," Damien said, impressed.
