System Within: Million Dollars From Today CHAPTER 124
Gabe came to a local grocery store where things weren’t going well. The store was owned by his friend, Monroe.“This is the third time this week that things were stolen from my store,” Monroe was telling all his worries to Gabe. Having seen Gabe drive a Lambo, he no longer considered Gabe as poor and undependable.“What are the police doing?” Gabe asks, sipping on almond milk from a bottle, which he bought using the twenty dollars that Mia had given him instead of giving a protein powder packet.“I complained to them, but they are more interested in taking products from my store for free instead of solving the case,” Monroe sounded quite frustrated. “The police have taken things worth over 2000 dollars in the past six days. I regret filing a complaint.”“This is pure harassment,” Gabe hissed. “Shouldn’t you consult a lawyer or something?”“Why? To feed the lawyer, too?” Monroe’s shoulder slumped. “These days, you can’t trust anyone. People who have no morals go to high places, but idi

After having brunch with Irene, Mia left the restaurant.Someone else came and sat at Irene’s table. It was her husband. “You chatted for a long time. What did you two talk about?”“Something that men wouldn’t understand,” Irene replied, making him smile. “She might need our help in the future, so if that time comes, I don’t want you to think about it.”He calmly nodded.“Thanks,” Irene said.“You’re not the type to care for your friends,” he said. “Why do you care about this particular friend? Did she help you in the past or something?”“Nothing like that. During our marriage, I realized that I don’t have many friends, so… I thought I should invest some time and effort into making some good friends.”“You think she’s worth your time and effort?” he asked.“I hope so,” Irene replied. “She’s definitely not like Keira or Natasha, but we’ll see.”In Draco’s school.Draco was playing mobile games during class hours using Nicole’s mobile. During recess, Draco put the mobile in his bag and

In Tuna Waves restaurant.After seeing her talent, Nicole was given the role of innovating the dishes by the head chef. She worked for the entire day and prepared seven dishes and made the chefs taste.What Nicole didn’t know was that this was a test. If she were to get approved by more than half the chefs, then she’d be promoted from an intern to a chef.When the chefs tasted her seven dishes, some of them raised complaints that most of these dishes were not weather-friendly or customer-friendly and so on.Nicole didn’t keep all these things in her mind. So, she asked them to give her one more chance before they even gave her the result.The seven dishes she made were definitely good, but most of them had too much spice, which would scare many customers away, and that wouldn’t do good business. These dishes were perfect for home but not for hotels.The head chef told her she could come tomorrow and try again.Nicole, however, said it was alright and worked for four more hours to prep

“You can sit,” the chairman’s wife, Jessica, told Nicole while she got lost in thought.“I-It’s okay, ma’am.” Nicole couldn’t stand still because working like this was new for her. Nicole could see from Jessica’s figure that she was probably five to six months pregnant.The little girl, Nora, came over to Nicole and took her to the nearest chair. Now, Nicole had no other option but to obey the little girl, which made Russell and Jessica chuckle a little. Nora went back to her parents and expressed her wish to eat the dish. They stopped the nail-polishing in the middle for their daughter’s sake and together fed their daughter by taking turns. Nora kept chewing and storing the meat in her cheeks instead of swallowing, which was her habit. Jessica poked the swollen cheeks, which automatically made Nora swallow. Nora then began to put food in her parents’ mouths. After tasting the dish, they briefly looked at each other and then shifted their gazes to Nicole.“Who made this?” Jessica aske

Bart was someone with a wicked sense of humor, but he couldn’t express himself well ever since he had taken a beating from Gabe.When Draco asked Bart to help him get his stolen mobile back, Bart replied with a question. “Do I look like I’m free enough to deal with the matters of the children?”Draco then had no choice but to come to his mother and tell her what happened.Carrie, having gotten used to the costly mobile, was shocked to hear this news. “Why the hell did you take the mobile to school?” she started beating Draco left and right until he cried. “You don’t even know who stole it, so who am I supposed to ask? Your teacher?”Draco went crying to the rooftop, where he was surprised to see Gabe sleeping on a mat.“Why are you sleeping on the floor?” Draco asked him.“Sleeping outside like this is a luxury in itself,” Gabe was staring at the star-studded sky.“Luxury? This?” Draco could only shake his head. He came and sat next to Gabe and also looked up at the sky, but then sudd

After ten o’clock in the night, Gabe saw Mia’s car entering the street and climbed down from the rooftop using the pipe fixed to the wall and quickly came over to the outside gate.Mia parked the car outside the house as usual and stopped by the gate.“Where were you until now?” Gabe asked. “Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you?”“My car broke down, and I was getting it repaired,” she answered. “That’s why it took me this long.”“Couldn’t you at least call me once and tell me what's going on?” Gabe didn’t raise his voice, but she could sense a hint of anger and worry in his voice.This was something Mia hadn’t experienced in a long time. Nobody in the family really questioned her regarding when she was entering or leaving the house.“What’s the point of carrying a mobile if you don’t call your family and tell them you’re going to come late?”Gabe kept on talking, putting his hand on the gate, not even letting Mia inside. “Next time, remember that there are people waiting for

In Mia’s house.Gabe went to Draco’s room and had to knock on the door many times to get the door opened.Before Gabe said anything, Draco quickly touched Gabe’s shirt and said, “Uncle, I will give you the phone tomorrow.”“You have school tomorrow, so…” Gabe put his hand forward.Twisting his mouth in many directions, Draco reluctantly gave the mobile back.“Don’t you have your own mobile?” Gabe asked, startling the kid. “I saw you playing with it before.”“U-Uh, that…” Draco didn’t know what to say and ended up saying what had actually happened. “I just lost it today.”“What?” Gabe was shocked. “Lost it? Where?” How could he lose such an expensive mobile! Gabe got so angry he wanted to smack on top of his little head.“Actually, someone in my class stole it,” Draco pitifully explained. “I don’t even know who it is, so I don’t know what to do.”“Didn’t you tell your Mom about it?” Gabe angrily asked.“I did,” Draco’s mouth turned down. “But she beat me.”Gabe controlled his anger and

Bart’s eyes popped out of his sockets as he couldn’t help but keep staring at the incredibly beautiful actresses, for they were irresistible. The actresses didn’t like the look on his face and glared at him, so he looked away.These two actresses were very famous and would charge at least a million dollars or over for a movie. How could they be sitting together with the mayor? At this point, he realized how much he underestimated the mayor’s influence.The actresses clearly didn’t like Bart’s presence, so they started dressing up. After telling the mayor to send the rest of the money to their accounts, they quickly left the room.“Don’t be too shocked,” Brendon lightly punched in Bart’s gut. “Politicians have always sought celebrities during weekends to release their stress or however you see it.” He threw a towel on his father’s crotch to cover the nudity. “Now, let’s talk business, shall we? My dad will give you the money he wants, but you’re going to have to do additional work for
