“Arnold, are you okay?” Angeline asked after they settled at a table in the other corner of the restaurant."I'm okay, Angeline." Arnold paused his words, then continue. "Is he your boyfriend?" he asked curiously.Angeline chuckled at Arnold's question. She shook her head as she answered, “No, he is not my boyfriend. I don't have any relationship with him. He has repeatedly asked me to go out, but I always refuse. Until tonight I gave him a chance. I'm grateful to meet you here. Thanks to you, now I know what Sammy really is like," she explained, smiling to express her gratitude towards Arnold.“Since I'm already at this restaurant, how about we have dinner?” invite Angeline.Arnold nodded. "That's good idea. I came here to get my food, but that crazy guy made a mess here," he responded.“Now forget about that crazy guy. We'd better order food immediately." Angeline smiled, then raised her hand to signal the waiter to come to their table.Happiness enveloped Angeline's heart tonight.
The next day in the morning, Arnold woke up in bed in his new house. The soft and very comforting bed hugged his sleep, so he slept very soundly. The scent of aromatherapy candles that spread throughout the room made him feel calm. Arnold got out of bed, then walked towards the window. He opened the curtains in his room and let sunlight enter the room. “Wow!” Arnold muttered in admiration at the beautiful view of the beach in front of his house. He expressed gratitude for what he has now. Suddenly, Arnold remembered someone who had contributed to his life, the late Liam Aderwin. Without the help of Liam Aderwin, Arnold would not have been able to meet his biological family. Arnold missed Liam so much, even though that man was no longer in the world. “I haven't been to Mr. Liam's grave since a long time. Looks like I'll go there today," he muttered. After breakfast, Arnold got ready to go to the grave. He wanted to tell his current life to the late Liam Aderwin. Before coming to t
Rachel jumped with joy when she saw the notification of 50 million dollars credited to her bank account. She still couldn't believe that someone would deign to help her without ever meeting her in person.“Anonymous?” Rachel frowned when she saw the bank account name of the mysterius investor.As far as Rachel knew, there was only one bank in Fairybridge that could provide an account creation service using the name "Anonymous," but this service could not be obtained by just anyone. The bank that could provide account creation services like this was Elite Wins Bank, which was a bank owned by the Winster family.Only certain people from the upper class could own it. Even being rich was not enough to guarantee that someone could create a bank account with the name “Anonymous”.Finding this, Rachel was even more taken aback because it meant this mysterius person was definitely a big shot.While Rachel still got shock waves, a new message from the mysterious investor popped up.[Arnold: Ha
Not long after, the saleslady returned to meet Arnold and Maria.“There is one apartment that is still empty, sir. That apartment is the best type of apartment in Serenity Residence," conveyed the saleslady.Without hesitation, Arnold immediately booked the apartment. The purpose of coming to Serenity Residence was to order this type."Okay, I will choose it," Arnold stated."Okay, let me show you the apartment." The saleslady gestured her hand, inviting Arnold and Maria to come with her.They made their way to the apartment. In front of the door of the highest type of apartment, there was a man wearing a suit. Judging from his appearance, he was a salesman from Serenity Residence.The man looked at their arrival with a frown. He stopped the saleslady who was directing Arnold and Maria.“Stop!” the salesman ordered.This made the saleslady frown. She asked in an astonished tone. “Why did you stop me? I came here to take them to this apartement tour.”The salesman did not answer her qu
Instead of being amazed by Arnold's offer, the salesman just laughed. He looked at Arnold with disdain. “Sir, I have been kind enough to send you away respectfully from here. So please get out of here before my attitude changes," the salesman insisted on driving Arnold and Maria away. “I will pay rent for this apartment for one year at double the price!” Arnold exclaimed, announcing his offer with a serious tone. Victor burst into laughter. His gaze turned to Maria. He looked at Maria from head to toe, then silently praised her beauty. Even though Maria didn't wear designer outfit, she looked beautiful and elegant. "Is she your girlfriend?" Victor asked in a teasing tone. “I know why you keep pretending to fight over this apartment. You must just want to impress her, and if you don't, you're afraid she will leave you like Rachel did to you before,” he added mockingly. "She is not my girlfriend, and clearly I didn't come here to impress anyone. I just want to get this apartment for
Arnold snorted as he folded his arms across his stomach. "Can't Victor Galvoir match my bet?" he scoffed.Victor let out a disdainful chuckle, which was actually to conceal his inability to bet over 1 million dollars just to rent an apartment."Actually, I could match your bet; it's just that I'm not sure if you can really pay 1 million dollars to rent this apartment," Victor distorted.Arnold's gaze met Victor's, a bitter smile forming on his lips. “You keep belittling me and accusing me of being delusional, so how about I prove now that I can really pay it forward?”Victor narrowed his eyes. He objected to placing bets above 1 million dollars. So Victor decided to give Arnold a chance to pay the 12 million dollars as the man had declared.The salesman looked at Victor with the hope that he would continue betting and beat the price stated by Arnold. He could smell the rich aroma of money and bonuses that would be obtained if he succeeded in getting someone to pay multiple times the p
Victor's gaze turned to Arnold with a suspicious look. He knew that in Fairybridge there was a bank that could create accounts with the username "Anonymous," but that was only for certain people. Even Alexander Galvoir (Victor's father) was rejected when he applied to create this special bank account. Arnold deliberately used his anonymous bank account so that his true identity would not be revealed. “There is no way someone like him could create a bank account with an anonymous username. He must be using tricks to deceive us!” Victor made accusations at Arnold. Arnold snorted. “What trick? Is there no member of the Galvoir family who can have a special bank account like mine?” he replied in a teasing tone. "You! How dare you insult my family!” Victor clenched his fists and was about to approach Arnold to hit him, but seeing the arrival of people in his sight made him not do it. Victor chose to maintain his attitude and dignity in front of many people. The people who had just arr
Maria, who had been silent, finally dared to speak to support her master. “We all witnessed that agreement, where someone who loses the bet will kneel before the winner. You have underestimated my friend Arnold, and now you are paying the price," Maria sneered. Victor sighed in frustration. He looked around him, where the onlookers were expecting for him to kneel before Arnold. Even though he continued to be pressured, Victor was determined not to kneel in front of anyone, let alone Arnold. Without saying a word, he stepped forward to leave there, but the salesman swiftly blocked his way. “Where are you going, Mr. Victor? Are you going to run away like a coward?” he scoffed. Victor's rage escalated. He glared at the salesman as he was about to hit him, but the salesman quickly locked his hands and pushed him, causing him to fall to the floor. “You have no other choice but to kneel before Mr. Arnold! You won't be able to escape from here!" exclaimed the salesman. Victor gritted h
