Hearing those words made Andrew feel really relieved inside. He realized that overcoming the pain he had gone through was exactly what he needed to do.
Andrew wiped away his tears, determined to regain his composure. He looked at the holographic projection of his father and asked, "What should I do now?" His father's hologram looked right into Andrew's eyes, showing a sense of purpose and wisdom. "First, you need to know that money can open doors and give you the power to make a difference in the world. And my son, you already have that power," his father explained. Andrew's mind was filled with confusion. He didn't fully understand what his father meant, so he asked for more clarity. "How? I don't understand?." "This very ring possesses numerous things. Years ago, I foresaw the potential greed within our family, realizing they would seek to claim the entirety of our fortune if anything were to happen to me. So in other to counter that, I established a concealed stash fund stored in a highly secure vault accessible only by using this ring. I want you to go to the Golden Horizon Bank, find vault 1025, and employ the power of the ring on your finger to unlock it. Inside, you will discover three cards." His father explained. Andrew nodded in response as he was determined to do as he was told. *********** Few hours later, Andrew had gotten to the Golden Horizon Bank, after his father had properly directed him, he couldn't help but marvel at grandeur. The building looked really fancy, with its tall columns, shiny glass walls, and beautiful gardens. When Andrew entered through the revolving doors, he found himself in a huge lobby. Everything was designed to impress, with high ceilings, shiny marble floors, and fancy lights. Well-dressed people and bank employees greeted customers from their stations. "This place really lives up to its name," Andrew whispered to himself, amazed by the surroundings. Andrew took a moment to look around. He noticed a special lounge area nearby, where important customers could have private meetings. And there were exclusive meeting rooms too, showing how much the bank cared about giving great service to its important clients. Andrew walked towards the center of the bank, his eyes fixed on the directory that would show him the way to the vault. He knew the vault was where the bank kept its most valuable things, and it was really secure. As he got closer to the entrance of the vault, Andrew looked at the rows of lockers, searching carefully for the one that had the special green ring. He knew it would have the number "1025" on it. "There you are," he whispered to himself. He walked towards the vault and he raised his right fist, he held the ring in his hand and inserted it into the designated slot, then turned his fist counterclockwise. In response, the vault made a slight rotation and opened immediately, eliciting a sense of triumph in Andrew. "Finally!" he exclaimed, relieved that he had followed the instructions accurately. Plunging his hands into the dimly lit vault, Andrew felt the texture of three cards and retrieved them with a surge of joy. The voice of his father echoed in his mind, reminding him, "Once you have the cards, you can proceed to the counter to access the funds." Andrew tightly clutched the trio of cards as he made his way to the reception counter, his footsteps softly echoing on the marble floor. Behind the counter stood three impeccably dressed female receptionists. The first receptionist possessed shoulder-length blonde hair. She wore a tailored navy blue suit that accentuated her figure. The second receptionist had jet-black hair styled in a neat bob, wearing a crisp white blouse and a charcoal grey pencil skirt. Meanwhile, the third receptionist stood out with her kind eyes and warm smile, emanating a friendly and approachable presence. Her chestnut brown hair was neatly pulled back into a bun, and she wore a soft lavender blouse paired with a charcoal grey skirt. Two of the receptionists exchanged subtle smirks, their expressions showing that they were irritated by Andrew. They cast disapproving glances at Andrew's worn-out jacket and slightly scuffed shoes. Despite, Andrew feeling self-conscious, he refused to let their judgment deter him. Aware that seeking assistance from those two judgmental receptionists would likely lead to further criticism, Andrew walked up to the third receptionist. With a warm smile, he extended his hand and placed it on the counter, drawn to her kind eyes and empathetic demeanor that set her apart from her colleagues. "Good afternoon," Andrew greeted. The third receptionist paused her paperwork and met Andrew's gaze with a sympathetic smile. "Good afternoon. How may I assist you today?" Her tone conveyed a genuine willingness to help, contrasting sharply with the dismissive aura of the others. Andrew explained, "I would like to access the funds associated with these cards, please." The two receptionists exchanged judgmental glances, their disapproval of Andrew evident. One of them scoffed, displaying a lack of interest in him. "And why do you believe you're entitled to access these resources? What is a person like you doing in a prestigious bank such as The Golden Horizon Bank?" she retorted, her tone derisive. "Yes!" added the other receptionist, concurring with her colleague. However, the compassionate receptionist intervened, asserting her point with respect. "Please, let's treat all clients with respect and provide assistance to the best of our abilities," she firmly stated, leaving no room for argument. Reluctantly, the disapproving receptionists fell silent, concealing their disapproval behind neutral expressions. With gentle reassurance, the empathetic receptionist took the cards from Andrew's hand. She inserted them into the card reader, her fingers effortlessly gliding over the keyboard as she inputted the necessary information. *Beeeep!* Andrew held his breath, his gaze fixed on the screen, eagerly awaiting the outcome. *Beeeep!* A smile of approval spread across the receptionist's face as she removed the cards. She handed them back to Andrew, along with a slip of paper containing the access codes and a receipt. "Andrew Everest, right?" the receptionist inquired. "Yes," Andrew nodded, surprised to see the account already bearing his name. "Please place your fingerprints on the scanner," the receptionist gestured to Andrew. He felt a bit timid, unsure if his fingerprints would work since he didn't have an account. He worried about the possibility of being arrested. He placed his thumb on the scanner and, to his surprise, heard a sound. *Beeeeeep!* "To access the account, you will need to create a PIN," the receptionist conveyed warmly. "Okay, yes please," Andrew replied politely. "Mr. Andrew, please input the PIN you would like to use on the POS machine," she gestured to his right-hand side. Andrew tapped the touch keypad of the POS machine and successfully entered his PIN. "Done," Andrew affirmed with a sense of accomplishment. "Would you like to link all three cards?" asked the receptionist. "Yes, I would," Andrew replied. She typed in some information and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Andrews. Your account verification is successful. Here are your access codes and the receipt." Andrew felt relieved that everything had gone smoothly as he accepted the cards and paperwork, carefully not to display his eagerness. "Thank you so much for your assistance," he expressed sincerely. The receptionist nodded, her eyes gleaming with pride. "You're most welcome. If you require further assistance, please don't hesitate to ask. Have a wonderful day," she genuinely offered. Andrew returned the smile, turning away from the counter and leaving behind the judgmental glances of the other two receptionists. As he left the bank, he thought to himself, "I wonder how much is inside the account" He said as he left the bank heading homeRelated Chapters

After coming back home, Andrew sat down in his chair and felt a wave of relief. He placed the ring on his desk with caution, and to his surprise, it started to glow and showed a hologram of his father. Andrew was filled with excitement and couldn't wait to ask about the bank account. He eagerly said, "I've confirmed the bank account, what do I do now?" His father's voice from the hologram responded, "Enter the PIN and log in using your phone." Andrew reached for his outdated iPhone 6 and accessed the Golden Horizon bank app. Entering his PIN, he noticed an asterisk symbol at the top, obscuring his balance. He was curious as he tapped the "View" option. As Andrew tapped his phone screen, his eyes opened wide with disbelief. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh my goodness!"

Andrew walked into the mall, greeted by an open space with stores lined up opposite each other.

Previously, all he could do was admire it from a distance, knowing that he couldn't afford anything sold there.But today was different. He moved with a sense of pride, as if he were the owner of the entire mall.Andrew headed towards the excavator, which would take him directly to the second floor since it seemed like the ground floor was mainly for groceries.As he held onto the moving stairs, Andrew was initially taken aback by the pressure from the excavator's motion. However, he quickly regained his balance, determined not to become the laughing stock of everyone present.Finally, Andrew reached the second floor. He scanned the area, looking left and right until he spotted a store selling men's clothes in the distance.He moved closer to the

Andrew had finished getting dressed, and he noticed that the outfit Hannah had chosen fit him perfectly. Thanks to her, he might finally be developing a sense of fashion."I had no idea he could look this good," Hannah's friends exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the transformed Andrew. It seemed he wasn't as unappealing as they had previously thought.Hannah had picked out all the clothes for Andrew, and as she stood up from the cushion she had been sitting on, ready to pay for everything, Andrew gently held her hands, stopping her in her tracks."Thank you for your kindness, but I can handle the bills myself," Andrew said, flashing her a grateful smile.Hannah didn't want to underestimate Andrew's financial situation, but she couldn't help but think he was still struggling financially. "You may not realize how much all these clothes are worth," she said, trying not to make him feel bad."Trash pretending to be wealthy... Haha.

Andrew stood outside the store, preparing to head home, when Hannah rushed out to meet him, seeking to apologize for her previous behavior."Andrew, wait up!" Hannah called out.Andrew wasn't in the mood, knowing that Hannah would bombard him with numerous questions."I'm sorry for how rudely I behaved earlier. Please disregard my attitude," Hannah earnestly attempted to clarify herself."It's alright, there's no need to apologize. You didn't say anything wrong. However, I must be on my way now. I have other things to attend to," Andrew finally interjected, wanting to distance himself from Hannah, especially considering she had a boyfriend.Hannah couldn't quite comprehend why he was avoiding her. "That's alright. I'll give you a call later," she said with a smile, waving him goodbye.Andrew was taken aback since he hadn't given Hannah his number, yet she confidently asserted that she would call him. Nevertheless, he didn't dwell on it, attributing it to her own reasoning."She probab

"Forty million," Andrew muttered to himself, he knew that he couldn't win the bid with that amount. "That's a good start, but I can go much higher." Andrew tapped the amount section and impulsively placed a bid of $60 million without much consideration. "There, that should do it. Over $60 million transferred and ready to secure the Emerald Crest," he said quietly, his face filled with determination. Meanwhile, Damian still bid the official amount, Damian thought to himself. "That loser just seems to be bragging he can never afford even 40 million dollars, so there is no need for me to waste my time in placing a higher bet. This property is mine," Damian smiled as he looked at Andrew. Just then, Evelyn emerged from her office and announced, "The bidding has been placed, and we officially have a winner." Damian eagerly anticipated hearing his own name, but to his astonishment, the outcome was quite the opposite. "Mr. Andrew Everest, you have won the bid. Congratulations and yo
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Always Crossing Paths
Andrew waved his hands to bid them farewell, but his gestures were indirectly insults. The girls remained outside, confronting the security guards."Do you even know who my boyfriend is? He lives here, and if he finds out you treated me this way, I assure you, your jobs will be on the line. Are you seriously telling me I can't enter?" Melanie, the owner of the Lamborghini, exclaimed angrily."We follow the rules, and if you truly are who you claim to be, why don't you call him over, ma'am? This is a peaceful neighborhood. Instead of getting worked up, let's have a civil conversation," one of guard advised, trying to diffuse the tension."Melanie, just give him a call," Trisha, her friend, urged, giving her a reassuring pat on the back.Melanie let out a frustrated sigh. She dialed her boyfriend's number, hoping for a resolution."Hey, honey, I've been here for a while, and they won't let me in," she sobbed into the phone."Who the heck refused to let you in? I'm coming, just wait for

Reverse Equation
Andrew leaned back in his chair, a rare smirk tugging at his lips. His fingers drummed rhythmically against the mahogany table as the boardroom fell silent. The projection screen at the front of the room displayed the financial reports of Blackwood & Associates, flashing red with losses."By this time next month," Andrew said smoothly, adjusting the cuff of his suit, "Blackwood will be nothing but a cautionary tale in corporate history."The board members exchanged glances. Some were skeptical, others impressed."You're certain of this?" one of the executives, a man with gray hair in his sixties, asked.Andrew turned his sharp gaze toward him. "I don’t make moves unless I’m certain, Caldwell."The numbers didn’t lie. Blackwood was bleeding. Their recent government contract dispute had cost them millions, and their internal executive infighting was turning their boardroom into a battlefield. Andrew had meticulously orchestrated their collapse, feeding just enough misinformation into t
Scandal Release
The boardroom was silent, all eyes on Andrew as he stood confidently at the head of the table. His executives had been debating all morning.Some wanted to sell off underperforming subsidiaries to stabilize Stellarite’s finances. Others were hesitant about expanding during a volatile market.Andrew had let them argue. Now, it was time to shut it down.He clicked the remote in his hand, switching the presentation slide."You're all focused on playing defense," he said, his voice smooth but firm. "But defense doesn't win wars. We don’t survive by retreating—we thrive by expanding."One of the executives, a sharp-suited woman named Lorraine, crossed her arms. "With respect, Mr.Andrew, expansion requires capital. And given our recent setbacks—"Andrew smirked. "Which is exactly why we need to strike now."Another slide appeared—financial reports on Blackwood & Associates.Andrew continued. "An example of companies we should be working on is the Blackwoods enterprise which looks stable on

The city lights blurred past as Andrew twisted the throttle, pushing the bike to its limits. Hannah clung to his waist, her pulse racing as bullets whizzed past them, some sparking off street signs.A quick glance in the side mirror showed three more pursuers closing in.One of them pulled ahead, raising a gun. Hannah reacted instinctively.BANG!Her shot hit the guard’s tire, sending him skidding sideways before crashing into a parked car. The explosion lit up the night behind them.Andrew let out a low whistle. “Damn. You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?”Hannah grinned, breathless. “Not gonna lie—this might be the best day ever!”Andrew’s smirk vanished instantly. He shot her a quick glance.“What?”She laughed, still firing back at their pursuers. “I mean, come on! The adrenaline, the chase—this is insane!”Andrew’s brows furrowed. Hannah never enjoyed violence. She had always been the calm, logical one. The one who hated the reckless chaos that came with their old life.Something wa
Escape Plan
“Alright, you’re close,” Taylor said through the comms. “The item should be in the next room. But heads up, boss—this is Blackwood’s most secured vault.”Andrew smirked. “What’s life without a little challenge?”Hannah shot him a look. “Define ‘little challenge,’ because this entire day has been nothing but chaos.”He ignored her and pressed forward. A large steel door was ahead, with a high-tech biometric scanner.Taylor’s voice was sharp. “Andrew, this thing is fortified like a government facility. How do you plan to—”Before Taylor could finish, Andrew pulled out a small device from his jacket pocket and slapped it onto the scanner.Andrew’s fingers worked quickly as he cracked the encrypted safe. The screen blinked green, and with a quiet click, the door swung open.Inside, resting on a velvet cushion, was a black hard drive—small, unassuming, but packed with enough information to bury Vincent Blackwood’s empire.Andrew picked it up, smirking. “Bingo.”Hannah peered over his shoul
Birthday Heist 2
The air vents were narrow, almost suffocating as Andrew and Hannah crawled through, their movements tense and calculated. The cold metal pressed against their bodies as they maneuvered through the tight space, forcing them to stay close."Move faster," Andrew muttered, his voice low and focused."Easy for you to say," Hannah shot back, her breath warm against his back. "It’s not like I crawl through air vents every day."Andrew ignored her, keeping his attention ahead. Taylor’s voice crackled in his ear."Alright, boss, take a left at the next junction," Taylor said, "And try not to break anything. That vent system is old."Andrew grunted in acknowledgment and adjusted his position, leading Hannah through the metallic tunnel.Hannah, ever the troublemaker, smirked in the dim lighting. "You know, Everest, if you wanted to get me this close, you could've just asked."Andrew didn’t even blink. "If I wanted you close, I wouldn’t choose a cramped metal box to do it in."Hannah rolled her e
Birthday Heist
************Andrew didn’t dwell too much on the fact that Hannah was being inconsistent, knowing she would eventually return to him. He had more important matters to handle, one of which was teaching Vincent a lesson.Taylor had tipped him off that today was Vincent’s daughter’s birthday, and Andrew saw it as the perfect opportunity to execute his plan.He arrived at Blackwood Tower, the skyscraper owned by Vincent Blackwood.The building resembled a five-star hotel with its chandeliers, polished marble floors, and high-profile guests dressed in designer suits.Security was tight as armed guards patrolled the entrances, and high-tech scanners screened every guest. But Andrew moved through the crowd with the confidence as someone who owned the place, drawing curious glances from some of the elites. He wasn’t invited, yet he was here—because he wanted to be.As he reached the upper floor where the private gathering was being held, a waiter passed by with a tray of champagne. Andrew ca
Realization
Hannah’s head pounded as she stirred awake, groggy and disoriented. The morning sunlight streamed through the hotel room’s curtains, casting a soft glow across the bed. She blinked, adjusting to the brightness, and then—her breath caught in her throat.Andrew’s bare chest rose and fell beside her, his face relaxed in sleep.Her pulse quickened. Slowly, she pulled back the blanket and froze.She was naked as a sharp scream tore from her lips. “Ahhhhh!”Andrew jolted awake, his eyes snapping open as his instincts kicked in. His head turned towards her, confusion laced in his expression. “What the hell—”His gaze flicked between her panicked face and the way she desperately clutched the blanket around her body. And then, to her horror, he smirked.“Good morning to you too."Hannah’s face burned with a mixture of embarrassment and anger. Her hands gripped the blanket tightly as she pressed her back against the headboard, glaring at him.“What did you do to me?!” she demanded,Andrew, st
Drunken Encounter
Andrew clung tightly to Hannah, unaware of her presence as he grabbed her waist. He was completely naked and had no idea that Hannah was sleeping beside him as he felt the softness of her waist. Drawing her closer, he felt a sensation as her waist region pressed against his lower body.In her intoxicated state, Hannah mistook Andrew's touch for rough hands gripping her waist but found it strangely pleasurable, feeling the sensation inwardly.As Andrew slept, he started to become sexually aroused, his lower body responding as he began to awaken.Soon, Hannah sensed something inside her, moving with a rhythm that she instinctively followed. Both of them were too drunk to fully comprehend what was happening, lost in their intoxicated state.Moaning softly, Hannah felt the pleasure intensify as she responded to the sensations.Andrew, increasing his pace, gradually opened his eyes as he withdrew from her.Waking up, Hannah felt the pleasure subside and turned to see Andrew. In a drunken m
Unpredictable
The beeping of the heart monitor was the only sound breaking the heavy silence.Andrew stepped inside, his heart pounding as he saw Hannah lying on the bed. She looked fragile, her expression unreadable as she stared at the ceiling.For a brief moment, relief flooded him. She was awake. She was okay.But then—she turned her back to him. His breath hitched.“Hannah…” he called softly, stepping closer.She didn’t answer. The doctor, who had been checking her vitals, glanced between them awkwardly.“I don’t want to see him.” Hannah’s voice was quiet, yet Andrew could hear what she said as his chest tightened.“Hannah, what are you saying?” she still didn’t look at him. Instead, she turned to the doctor. “Please… ask him to leave.”Andrew froze in place. This wasn’t happening.“Hannah,” he lowered his voice trying his best possible way not to make her angry“You remember something, don’t you?” A small tear slipped down her cheek, but she quickly wiped it away.“I remember enough to know
