[System Comment: You're beginning to comprehend how to savor life, and you even managed to save your first girl! You act like a normal guy, even though you're still a virgin. It looks like you're really into women, huh?]
"What the heck!" Arthur exclaimed in disbelief, staring at the comments displayed on the screen.
Like any other man, Arthur desired wealth, fame, and women; it was a common ambition. He was determined to attain anything he wanted in life. To this end, he had chosen Edna as his assistant, requiring someone he could trust and rely on.
Arthur noticed that his total balance in the account was reflected in the system, as well as the name of his partner. Astonished, he observed that Edna's percentage had risen from 55% to 65% in a matter of minutes.
Arthur earned 10 VIP points, but he didn't pay much attention to it, preferring to focus on other things instead.
Arthur was taken aback by Edna's appearance but also by her ability to work well despite the harsh treatment she had been receiving from her boss. This drew a connection between them and motivated Arthur to recruit her even more.
"Edna," he said, "I'll soon be giving you a big assignment so make sure you're prepared. Don't worry though, if it seems too difficult you can get as much help as you need. I just want you to be my main assistant and to understand my needs and fulfill them."
Arthur wanted to make sure Edna understood her role. She was familiar with how the business worked and hoped that she could help Arthur manage the business if he bought it.
"Mr. Gardner," Edna reassured him, "you don't have to worry. I won't let you down. I went to school for management accounting, so I'm quite knowledgeable in the field of management. I've also taken courses in business. You can count on me to do most of the things you need; I'll make sure you don't buy a cat in a sack." She wanted to make sure that he knew she was committed to faithfully serving him and that he would never regret giving her such an incredible opportunity.
"Mr. Gardner," said Bob, swallowing hard. "Mr. Charless has informed me that he is offering 30 billion USD if you want to purchase the business. You can add the 10 billion USD you paid earlier, and the transfer process will be done immediately. In no time, all of this business will be yours."
Bob felt as though his life was over. He had just insulted the man in front of him, and now he was going to lose everything he had worked for his whole life.
Arthur nodded in agreement and quickly concluded the transaction, making him the sole owner of the shares.
"Bob," he said sternly, "I'm aware you've been misbehaving lately, but I still need you here. So, I'm giving Edna the role of general manager and you'll be working under her direction. Don't make me regret this decision, or else I'll get rid of you and make your life a living hell."
Bob dropped to his knees, bowing his head in reverence before Arthur. "Sir, my deepest apologies for all I have done. I don't believe I'm worthy of your forgiveness, yet I swear to do my best, to help and assist Ms. Edna in any way possible," he declared.
Bob, although he appeared to be exploiting the staff at this company, he was simply following orders from his higher boss. He was actually very efficient in carrying out his duties.
He was embarrassed that his desire for Edna had caused him to act recklessly, but that feeling vanished when he caught sight of the formidable figure in front of him. Resolved to dedicate himself to his job and do all he could to meet his new boss' expectations, he was determined to work even harder.

Arthur then asked Edna to accompany him to see the most luxurious room in the hotel, which was connected directly by a bridge between the two buildings from the restaurant.
The news that the ownership of the hotel had just changed hands to a new person quickly spread, and they also realized it quickly when Edna, who was rumored to have taken over the general manager position, was accompanying the man at that moment.
"What?! Are you kidding me?" someone exclaimed. "That man who came dressed like a beggar a few minutes ago just bought the biggest hotel and restaurant in Southlake? And he even managed to persuade Edna to be his personal assistant! I can't even begin to imagine how much money he must have spent. Everyone wants her, but it seems like she's been purchased by a man who came out of nowhere. No one was trying to court her before. He's definitely very mysterious."
"That girl, Edna Ross, is the most stunning woman I have ever laid eyes on. She has now been acquired by our new boss, and I can't argue with his choice; she is drop-dead gorgeous and incredibly alluring."
"Hush! Can you keep your lips sealed? They are our most important boss at the moment. Do you want your life to become ruined if they hear what you said?"
Arthur decided to take the hotel's topmost floor, the 70th floor, which was part of a towering skyscraper. He then asked the hotel to clear out the five floors below his and reserve them exclusively for him.
Arthur chose a luxurious one-floor hotel room, which cost an astonishing fifty thousand US dollars a night, making it the most opulent accommodation in the city.
Arthur approached the grand bed in the center of the room, draped with golden sheets. He felt a comfort he had never experienced before as he lay down. Taking a moment to take in the feeling, he then noticed Edna standing in front of him, smiling sweetly.
"Edna," he began, "you can use the room one floor below me. I want you to be close by whenever I need you. I believe this is a wise decision."
"Are you sure I can use the VIP room on the floor below this one, Mr. Gardner?" Edna asked, her amazement palpable as she was granted something she had never even dreamed of before.
"Sure, you're my personal assistant now, so I want you to be available when I need you. Okay, now I need to go out and purchase some clothes and a new car, and I might need you to accompany me."
"Alright, Mr. Gardner!"
Arthur even had a private lift with access limited to him alone and a huge garage entirely for his use. Sadly, he did not yet own a car.
Might it be time for Arthur to resume his shopping sprees of expensive items?

"What can I do with 10 VIP Points, System?" inquired Arthur. [You can add new skills with 10 points or upgrade your body or mind.] [You can do anything as long as your imagination allows it.] Intrigued, Arthur pondered, "What will happen to me if I add 10 points to the body?

Edna took a towel from a suitcase and offered to help Arthur clean the stains on his clothes. "Let me help you, sir." she said. He nodded, allowing her to do so.

It won't be comfortable for you."She tried to dry the wetness on Arthur's shirt, but that didn't seem to help much. "A person as rich as you should look impeccable under any circumstances," she added.Edna then took a white shirt and a black suit jacket and placed them beside Arthur."Do you mind if I take off my clothes here?" he asked, glancing briefly at Edna.Edna shook her head quickly and smiled sweetly at Arthur. "I don't mind, sir. What's more, you were also naked in front of me before when you bathed in hot water at the restaurant," she said."Is that true?" Arthur thought back to the situation. "Didn't I take my shirt off when you had gone out, and I was in the pool, when you came up and

Linda affectionately grasped Marco's arm, their love for one another on full display for the onlookers."Sir," the salesperson began, "this car is incredibly rare. Only ten were made worldwide, and this is the only one in this city. Whoever owns it is sure to feel incredibly special. If you were to buy it for your partner, they would be truly grateful.""Of course I'll buy this car," Marco said, glaring at the salesman who stood near him. "Now, you can go. I'll call you if I need anything."He gave the salesman a swift kick in the leg, causing the man to bow and hastily retreat."What a waste of time," Marco muttered. "I don't like it when I'm in the process of buying a car and other people are just hanging around me!""Darling, you know," Marco began gently, "this car isn't quite right for you.

"Hi, you..." Marco said as he walked towards Edna. She slightly backed away as he got closer. "This is the first time I've ever encountered a woman as stunning as you - may I ask your name?"

We are deeply in love, and he is planning on buying me the most luxurious car here.""Do you really think I'm going to buy this nonsense?" Marco said firmly, glancing at Arthur. "Do I look like I don't know who this guy is? He's nothing but trash that I just kicked to the curb.""Marco..." Linda hurried to Marco and gently tugged him back. "You can't flirt with other women while I'm here.""Linda..." Marco turned to Linda, "I'm teaching this trash a lesson, and do you want this trash to bullshit in front of us? You know what? He's too stupid to play around in front of us and expect us to believe him."Marco spun around to behold Edna, and his attraction to Linda immediately vanished. He

Arthur exited the car store, and Edna's shiny new car was ready to be driven away. Unfortunately, Arthur's car wouldn't be delivered to his home until later."The car you purchased, Mr. Gardner, is an exclusive model - only five were manufactured worldwide. Additionally, they suggest that only one of these cars is located in this country! You truly have a unique and luxurious sports car at your disposal." Edna remarked.Arthur gave a slight smile in response to Edna's words. He had a problem; he had never driven a car before, and he had to figure out how to solve it quickly, as Marco was challenging him to a car race the following week."And..." Edna continued. "Mr. Gardner, since there is only one car now, and I don't mind driving, but I would be honored if you would take the wheel. Furthermore, you bought such an extravagant car for me and I don't have the confidence to drive it the first time."
