Samuel shook his head slowly. A slight smile appeared on his face. Then he spoke, “No.”

Fiona frowned. Staring at Samuel and waiting for the answer that Samuel would give after this. Of course she was still sure that Samuel would not be able to buy this car himself, but Samuel’s answer seemed confusing to her.

“I helped my friend finish the project. And that’s why I got a very big prize.” Samuel looked at Fiona very seriously. “I bought this for you, Fiona.”

Darrell certainly didn’t believe that easily. “Are you that smart that you helped your friend?” he smiled full of mockery. He knew that Samuel was just a stupid and useless man. Then Samuel wouldn’t be able to do anything.

Samuel glanced at Darell for a moment. Then he nodded his head. “Yes, I am indeed a smart person.” He turned his attention away. “And that’s why I was able to finish the project and get it.”

Hearing the answer given by Samuel made the man snort in annoyance. “Damn it!” He spoke in a whisper, but it was clearly h

    Ella's sharp eyes stared angrily into Samuel's face. Her hands were clasped around her waist. "You're overreacting. You're asking me just because of such a small amount of money." The shouting voice made the room hot. At this moment, Ella raised her hand. Her index finger was right in Samuel's face. "Are you going to accuse me of being a thief in my home?"You're really too much." Her shout was filled with anger. Samuel shook his head. "But mom shouldn't have taken the money." This time, Samuel spoke with a bit of assertiveness. Previously, he had asked very carefully, but his mother-in-law responded angrily. Darell, who was beside his mother, also gave a piercing look. Both his hands were clenched tightly into fists. "Stop your nonsense!"He also stepped closer to Samuel, staring at him from a few centimeters away. "You've been living here, and how can you be so ignorant?" His voice was full of emphasis. Before Samuel could answer, he said, "You should realize you are still here

    Samuel felt the excruciating pain of his body. Earlier, he had even been able to hear the crushing of his bones. His breathing became more labored. He couldn't even open his eyes anymore. He thought he was going to die. But at this moment, he wasn't really dead or unconscious. In his body, which was still crushed by the large object, he felt the footsteps of two people approaching him. Samuel tried to open his eyes. But he could only see vaguely as two men stood beside his body. They did nothing to help him. The rest of the time, he only heard whispered voices from the two men. "He's fit for it."He heard that voice clearly. Even so, Samuel did not understand anything they said. He was utterly helpless to even ask for a favor.Before he could understand anything, his eyes went dark, and he was utterly unconscious."I'm going to die."Moments later, Samuel woke up suddenly. Samuel had no idea how long he had been unconscious. "Ahhh." But at this moment, he felt excruciating pain i

    The two men in black stared at Samuel's arrival with anger. But they realized that Samuel's small body would not be able to defeat them. Both men laughed loudly. Thinking that Samuel had come foolishly. They looked at Samuel with disdain, moving their eyes up and down his body, thinking that he was too bold. One of the men pointed at Samuel and spoke, "Go away and stay out of our business.""Your shouting won't be able to bully us. Do you think we are children?" the man with a tattoo on his left arm spoke loudly. The look in his eyes was frightening. Fiona felt anxious about her husband's arrival. She realized that her husband's thin body would not be able to defeat the two thugs. Fiona didn't want anything bad to happen or the problem to escalate, so she thought quickly about how to solve it. Fiona looked boldly at the two thugs. "I'll give you some money, but get out of here."Just as Fiona was about to take the money from her bag, Samuel suddenly stopped her hand. He shook h

    Samuel's breath itt was coming fast. His pounding chest was making him uncomfortable. Samuel squeezed his hands, which were wet with sweat. The nearly 50-year-old man in front of Samuel looked at him with displeasure. "Uncle, I really need your help. Can you lend me 2 million dollars?""I will definitely return it.” Samuel said politely, hoping that his uncle would help him. But Brian's gaze changed. "What? Two million dollars? Are you out of your mind? That's a huge amount of money, and how are you going to pay it back later." He began to look down on Samuel.He scrutinized Samuel's unpromising appearance. He had even found out that Samuel had gone bankrupt and was only working at a restaurant for a low salary. "Go away and don't appear before me. There is no money for you. You're working for a small salary, you won't be able to pay it back. You poor bastard." Brian insulted him. Samuel didn't just give up hope. His uncle was the only one he expected to help him now.

    Samuel was silent for a few seconds. Should he accept it? He desperately needed money to keep his marriage going, and he remembered that no one wanted to give him a loan. This time, he looked at Justin. The man was very earnest. He even thrust the black card back into Samuel's lap. "Accept this. It will help you."This was completely unexpected. After getting so many rejections from everyone, he had found a way out this time. This was something like a miracle. Samuel, who was hesitant at first, decided to accept it. It was the only thing that would help him now. He looked at Justin sharply. "Is this really the money?"Justin smiled and gave a slight nod. "You can check it yourself after receiving it. Take it. Because it's all for you.""Okay." Samuel reached out and actually took it. He trembled slightly when he touched the black card."I have to go back soon." Samuel got up from his place. Just as he was about to walk out, Adam stood before him. The man bowed his body very politel

    Fiona was all dressed up in her formal attire, her hair flowing freely. She looked so beautiful and classy. The woman looked up at Samuel. The two of them standing facing each other seemed very contrasting."Samuel, I have to go. Don't forget what I said before." Samuel nodded his head. "Yes, don't worry. I remember it."Fiona said nothing else. She walked away and disappeared behind the door. "Is that bastard still in his room? Where's my breakfast?" His mother-in-law's voice sounded so loud from outside.Samuel had gotten used to the shouting. He had no choice but to approach his mother-in-law. Once they were face to face, he said, " Mom, I'll make breakfast for you right away."Emma gave him a sharp glance. "Do I have to yell to get my breakfast?" her loud voice snapped at Samuel. "Mom, I will prepare it quickly." Samuel walked away from his mother-in-law. He didn't want to waste too much time listening to his mother-in-law's ramblings. This time, he chose to make pancakes for

    "Samuel.. how could he say that?" Fiona was stunned for a few moments. She had not expected Samuel to put pressure on Anthonio. Fiona knew that Anthonio was a very stubborn man. He often spoke his mind and went against the advice of some of his other coworkers. But this time, Samuel made his face very pale.Fiona noticed Samuel staring intently at Anthonio's face. Her husband's gaze was dominating, and she realized that something was different about Samuel now. "He's very talkative," Fiona spoke in her heart. She knew about Samuel's origins. He came from a poor family and did not even graduate from college. She could hardly believe that Samuel would help her by giving those words to Anthonio. Samuel's confidence amazed her.He had never worked in his life, so how could he understand the company Anthonio was managing? This was even his first day in the company. Anthonio's eye movements were getting more and more agile. "Stop talking nonsense." He raised his voice loudly, ignoring t

    Hearing what Samuel said, made everyone in the car look in disbelief. Darell and his mother looked at each other, thinking that it all seemed unreasonableThey knew that this was a very special necklace, even at least worth more than 50 million dollars. So how could Samuel say that it was a necklace given by someone. It seemed very impossible."Are you kidding? Don't you know how much this necklace costs?" Ella looked at him very seriously. But then the old woman gave a sneer.Ella thought of course Samuel wouldn't know how expensive the diamond necklace was. Especially when Samuel had been living in a circle of poverty.While Samuel shook his head. "Of course I'm not kidding, mother. I'm telling the truth. I got all this from my friend."Even Fiona who was beside him seemed doubtful of everything Samuel said. The woman frowned. "Samuel, is that possible?""Just because of a debt of gratitude, he gave me that very special necklace?" Fiona shrugged her shoulders, trying to find the tru

    Ella was still filled with disbelief. The diamond necklace was now in her hands. Her hands were even shaking slightly as she held the necklace.The woman had even ignored the previous necklace that Darius had given her. Her gaze did not shift from the diamond necklace in her hands. “This is truly extraordinary.”As Ela watched her, the old woman could tell that a different sparkle was visible there. Her lips did not even stop smiling at this time.But suddenly Samuel took the necklace back from her hands. Of course that made Ella very surprised.Her gaze became very sharp, staring at Samuel with annoyance. “What are you doing?”“Why did you take the necklace back?” Ella emphasized her question. She tried to take it back but at this time Samuel actually hid it. “Didn’t you say that you would give the necklace to me?”“You shouldn’t have taken the necklace back from me.” Ella spoke firmly. Even though Samuel was the owner of the necklace, he was not at all happy when Samuel took back wh

    Hearing what Samuel said, made Ella there annoyed. According to her, the man did not understand anything at all. Even with expensive valuable items, Samuel would not know.Ella rolled her eyes, showing her displeasure at everything Samuel said. "I don't need your advice.""Really annoying." The old woman gave Samuel a sneer. "Really annoying."Ella quickly turned around, ignoring Samuel who was still behind her.While Darell held his mother's hand. The man also still did not expect that the two salesgirls said that it was a fake necklace. While it was very clear that it was a necklace given by Darius. It was impossible for the man to lower his standards by buying fake goods. According to him, it was very unreasonable."Mom, ignore them." Darell spoke with a cold gaze. Even his mind was a little confused at this time.Darrell's gaze returned to Fiona. "Why did you come here?"Fiona looked cynical. “We came because we knew that you were going to sell the necklace.

    The next morning when they were at the dining table, Ella and Darrel were seen smiling enthusiastically. Unusually, they enjoyed their food very quickly, as if they were in a hurry to go somewhere.This raised Fiona's suspicions. The woman looked at her mother and her younger brother alternately. "Are you guys going?" Fiona frowned.Her mother nodded her head. "Yes, we're going.""This early? Where are you going?" Fiona became very curious. Fiona knew that they didn't have anything to do. Until knowing that now they said they were going, it raised a very big question for Fiona.But there Darrel immediately nodded his head. "Yes, we're going to sell something."Hearing what they said made Fiona even more confused. "Sell something?" Fiona repeated what Darrel said.The man nodded his head again. “Yes, we will sell something very valuable.” She paused her sentence. While her gaze was fixed on Samuel. “Something that a poor man like him will never have.” She laughed arrogantly.In fact, s

    Darius was surprised by the question that Mrs. Fiona said. This seemed surprising. He didn't even know what they were talking about. And about what was circulating on the internet, he didn't even know. So far, his family name has often been the center of conversation on social media or anywhere, considering that he has a very wealthy family. Even Darius's name often gets a lot of praise and also the spotlight from everyone. However, seeing the expressions shown by both of them, Darius was very sure that it was not about the praise he usually got. Their faces showed strange expressions. Darius was filled with confusion. "What happened. Tell me?" This time Darius was very panicked. He was sure there was something unusual. Even though he didn't know for sure, Darius was very worried. Even this time Mrs. Fiona and Darell looked at him differently. Darell's gaze was still fixed on his cellphone screen. He was previously sure that it was just fake news that was deliberately spread. But s

    Darius really felt very upset after what Samuel said to him. Hearing Samuel say he was stupid was a huge insult to him.It was inappropriate for a poor and useless man like Samuel to give that insult. It even tarnished his self-esteem.After all, Samuel could not be compared to himself who was so extraordinary. Darius had always been so confident and arrogant. If he was a high-ranking official in a fairly large company.. even he was the only child who would be the successor of his family.Darius immediately pointed at Samuel's face. "I can break your jaw for that insult!" He said it firmly, giving Samuel fear.But this was not what he thought, because in reality Samuel did not feel afraid at all. The rest Samuel looked at him calmly and he was not affected at all by what Darius said.Darius immediately patted his chest very hard, he protruded his chest and acted very arrogantly. “I am even more powerful than you. And my family is a respected family. So it is not easy for them to bring

    Everyone immediately stared at the necklace that Samuel was carrying. As Darius said, they were very sure that the necklace was indeed a fake necklace.They immediately laughed out loud, thinking that Samuel was a very silly man. He was carrying a necklace that was exactly the same as the one Darius was carrying."I don't know how that man could be so confident by carrying that fake necklace."Darius straightened his jacket, he puffed out his chest and showed that he was far superior to Samuel. "He should know that a perfect woman like Fiona doesn't deserve something fake."Darrel certainly agreed with what Darius said. Even the man couldn't help but sneer. "He is indeed a very stupid man. He is too confident by saying that it is a real necklace, who would believe it if he has that much money?"His mother-in-law who was there also nodded her head. “She doesn’t even have a good job, and she doesn’t have good finances. And buying that necklace at that fantastic price is something that i
