Rick and Richard news, also known as R&R news, was a media company that was soaring to greater heights lately.“In the last year itself, they saw a growth of seventeen percent, Mom, which is massive,” Ben was telling his family members while Jamie was driving the family car Kia Seltos worth about 30,000 dollars.“So, what’s their company’s net worth?” Ivy curiously asked.“Almost 150 million dollars, I believe,” Ben replied, pleasantly surprising her.“Does that mean the Richard family has more than the company?” Ivy quickly queried.“I don’t know their family’s net worth, but they’re definitely past that hundred million mark,” Ben explained. “I mean, the car that Amelia uses is an Aston Martin worth nearly 200 grand.”“Hahaha,” Ivy started laughing. “I’ve never sat in a car worth more than 100 grand. I can’t wait for this new experience I’m going to get.”Even Ruth was getting excited. Their family was by no means poor. They were in the upper middle class, but they never had the zeal
Almost four years ago.Amelie just turned eighteen, and she also joined the college in the robotic engineering department.However, on the first day of her college, she also planned on doing something she had never done before.It was to go out on a date. And she picked a blind date.It was going to be her first date, so she was really excited to meet this man. Her college was in Salem city, so she had to look for a man from the same city, too.On that evening, she stopped by a small restaurant known as Drake's restaurant. She purposely picked a small but famous restaurant.“I brought money, but it’d be nice if he pays for me,” Amelie thought as she waited. “Will he be a gentleman, or will he be a douchebag?” she lightly tapped her cheeks. “Let’s not be negative-minded on my first date.”Amelie was half-an-hour early, so she had to wait at her table, wondering what kind of a man she was going to meet. With every minute passed, her expectations went higher. She was a young soul with a
Ulmer wanted to enjoy the dating experience and gain some knowledge. That was his goal. He wasn’t planning on convincing the girl, but after seeing Amelie who’s got those big beautiful eyes, he ended up speaking some nonsense and put himself in big trouble.After all, Amelie now took him straight to her college. It was a co-ed college, where men and women could study together in the same hostel if they wanted. However, they needed to sign their arrival and departure in the books.Also, men weren’t allowed to stay after nine o’clock in the night. When Ulmer and Amelie arrived at the hostel, it was already eight o’clock, so they had only one hour to spend together in the room.Amelie was fully thinking about the robotic dog project she had been working on before she even joined this college. However, Ulmer was feeling quite awkward because he found himself in a ladies' hostel. He could see bras and panties hanging on the ropes, and the girls in many rooms were giving him those long star
Almost four years later, Ulmer saw that magnificent back again. Amelie didn’t have a big butt, but because of her thin waist, her other features were enhanced by it.Ulmer straightaway remembered Amelie even though he didn’t even see her face yet. “I-Is it her?” He did remember her features, but he forgot her name. “What was her name again?”“Hey, what are you daydreaming about?” Mollie asked him, grabbing his hand. “I know this big house might be intimidating, but let’s go inside. It’s better to blend in with others instead of standing out. Trust me with that.”Mollie took Ulmer inside, and he hoped that it wasn’t Amelie but someone else that he saw.However, after entering the hall, Ulmer saw Amelie introducing Ben and his family to her family members, and he still remembered that pretty face. She looked a little older now, but she pretty much looked the same as she did that day. She was just as slim and attractive.It almost felt like the clock was turned back.“Don’t drool over he
After dinner, Ross was talking with Ivy and Jamie on the balcony. They used this moment to apologize for what had happened when he and his son came to their home.Ross told them to forget about it. “It wasn’t a good first impression, but I’m a man who believes in second chances. So, let’s get along.”Ivy and Jamie were gladdened by Ross’ optimism.Meanwhile, Mollie and Ulmer were waiting on the lawn. It was cold, so Ulmer wrapped his suit around Mollie.“What do you think about the Richard family, Ulmer?” Mollie asked him. “I think Ross is a class act. If he wants, I’m sure many rich young men would line up for his daughter, but he’s given respect for her love and agreed to marry her to Ben. We’re lucky to form a relationship with such a man, don’t you think? If Mike was here, he would have definitely felt happy for his grandson.”“I’m sure he would,” Ulmer said. Mike was Mollie’s late husband, and he loved his grandchildren a lot, and they remembered him as mostly being a funny and
At around twelve in the night.Ross and Jamie and Ivy were coming out together, and all three of them seemed to be in a good mood.“There’s no rush, Ms. Ivy,” Ross said. “We’ll get them engaged soon. But as for marriage, let’s wait a little and see how they go by. If everything is fine after a while, and both of them are still interested in each other’s company, we can arrange a grand wedding.”“Y-Yes, that sounds cool,” Ivy was smiling on the outside but on the inside, she was crying. She didn’t think Ross would bring such a condition out of nowhere.But Jamie wasn’t too surprised by it because he had heard a little of Ross’ backstory, that his wife had left him after five years of marriage when their kids were very young. She left him because he was focusing more on work and less on her. After that, Ross took care of his children on his own. He didn’t marry anybody else, so Jamie could understand why Ross was particular about giving time for his daughter to think before moving onto
Ben and others reached their home in their Kia Seltos. Ben and Ivy went inside happily, whereas Jamie was parking the car in the garage.Mollie’s back was hurting from sitting for nearly forty minutes in the car, so she took Ruth’s and Ulmer’s help to walk to her room.After dropping Mollie in her room, Ulmer said good night and then exited the room with Ruth. He quickly told her, “Don’t steal things, Ruth. It’s never going to help you.”Ruth’s heart shook very much. “W-What are you talking about, Bro?”Ulmer put his hand on her shoulder. “I saw it. You taking the locket from that statue.”Ruth’s eyes widened. “I-I don’t know what you’re talking about. Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”Ulmer, however, didn’t smile or blink. “I’m not going to tell anyone, but for your own good, I’m telling you. Don’t steal like that again. It’s never going to help. I’m not trying to preach you or anything. When I was young, I stole a thing or two from my friend’s house, too. Once I stole a small mirro
The next morning.Ben woke up at around nine in the morning and came out to the verandah yawning. Jamie was cleaning his car, which made Ben roll his eyes. (He’s at it again. Why does he clean the car everyday?) “Dad, the car won’t become fresh just because you clean it regularly.”“But it won’t look dirty and old if we regularly clean it,” Jamie replied. “Don’t discount these habits, Son. They may seem insignificant to you, but one good habit can lead to another.”“So, you’re suggesting that cleaning your car daily will help you be better in other areas, too?” Ben faintly smiled. “Self-butterfly effect, huh. That sounds interesting. I admit.”“The rice mill worker dropped the bag outside,” Jamie said, “instead of leaving it in the house. Why don’t you take it inside?”Ben looked at the rice big. It looked big. Still, he came to the bag and tried to pick it up. He was able to lift it a bit, but to his surprise, he couldn’t do it fully. “It’s quite heavy.”“That’s 120 pounds,” Jamie sa
