A sleek black car drove into an opulent compound.

People were already gathered there in the compound to welcome the person that had just arrived. The air was thick with anticipation as the car came to a halt.

The front seat door opened and a middle-aged man stepped outside and swiftly made his way to the passenger's seat.

He pulled the door open and immediately bowed down his head as he waited patiently for the individual inside the car to step outside.

A few moments later, a striking young man emerged from the car. The man seemed to be in his early twenties. Curly brown hair that was neatly combed, and he was clad in an expensive brown suit.

The aura around the man was filled with confidence, as he stepped down from the car, noise erupted in the compound.

Journalists and paparazzi swiftly made their way towards him, each and everyone of them eager to ask him some questions.

"Mr. Zed, it's so good to see you here. I heard you are finally done with the creation of your first automatic car, what do you have to say about this?" A female reporter spoke up, and her microphone stretched forth.

"What was the most challenging aspect in creating the car and what do you have for young aspiring engineers out there?"

The man, known as Zed, paid no attention to their questions as he kept advancing forward, heading towards the opulent building a few meters away.

Zed was a young inventor who specialized in creating cars and other means of transportation like aircrafts, ships, choppers, and war machines.

He works for the biggest company in the city of Sunderland known as The Eclipse industry, and so far he has been the reason why the company was still on top.

Everyone was gathered here at the Eclipse industries to witness the first ever automatic car made by Zed. Zed has been announcing on the news for a few years now that he was working on a project. A type of project that hasn't been seen or heard by anyone.

Finally, he succeeded in creating the car, and now they have all gathered here to watch him test it and also put it up for sale for billionaires to auction for it.

As Zed walked towards the entrance, he slid his right hand into his pocket and pulled out a small red box. He opened the box and a small shiny ring could be seen sitting in there.

"This is a very special day for me. But it won't be complete if I don't give her this ring. I will finally propose to her." Zed grinned as he closed the box and placed it back in his pocket.

Zed pushed the entrance door open and walked into the headquarters. He attempted to walk forward but two men appeared in front of him and blocked his path.

The men had broad shoulders and bulky muscles, and were both clad in black suits.

"Good afternoon, gentlemen." Zed greeted, attempting to walk past them but they blocked his path.

"I'm afraid you are not welcome here. Please turn around and leave this place to avoid embarrassment." One of the guards spoke in a deep and mature tone.

Zed was taken aback after hearing the words of the man, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"W-what are you talking about?" He muttered. "There must be a mistake somehow. Out of my way, I have an appointment soon." Zed frowned as he tried walking forward but the guards didn't move.

"Are you deaf? I said you are not allowed in here so kindly back away or we'll be forced to throw you out!" The guard spat, his tone filled with disdain as he glared at Zed.

Zed still had no idea what was going on right now.

He works in the Eclipse industries, and he was also the reason why everyone gathered here this afternoon. So what does the guard mean by he wasn't allowed.

Zed opened his mouth to speak, but before he could utter a word a cool male's voice rang out.

"You heard the man, didn't you, Zed?" A man in white suit and gray hair walked towards them.

The man was known as Mr. Damien. The CEO of the Eclipse industries.

"What's going on, Mr. Damien? This is a joke, right?" Zed muttered.

"Nothing is a joke here, kid. Your contact with Eclipse industries has been terminated today, so please leave here at once!" Mr. Damien voiced out.

The words of Mr. Damien pierced Zed in the heart like a dagger, and he staggered backwards and almost lost balance. His expression was filled with both shock and disbelief, and it felt like his whole world was crashing down.

"What... What do you mean, sir?" He muttered in a soft tone.

"You heard me right, Zed. Your services are no longer needed here so we had to terminate your contract." Mr. Damien responded.

"But..what did I do? I've always been so hard-working to make sure the company remains at the top.. you can't just terminate my contract without giving me a valid reason." Zed bellowed, pain and betrayal laced in his voice.

"Like I said, we no longer need your services, we have to let you go. And besides, we already found someone better, someone with a lot of experience and he is more suitable for the job." Mr. Damien explained audibly.

"So you are just going to fire me because you found someone else? After all I've done for you and your company this is how you choose to repay me?!" Zed finally lost it and he voiced out in anger. "What about the automatic car I made? If you are going to fire me then I guess I should leave with my own creation." Zed added, his face bright red in anger.

Zed has been working in the Eclipse industries for many years now, and it was his only source of income. If he should leave the company he would have no job or money to survive.

However, if he could sell the automatic car to the highest bidder, he could get enough money to start up a business of his own.

"The car you claim to be yours was created with the company's equipment and money. It is also registered under the company's name so it legally belongs to me." Mr. Damien responded with a mischievous smirk on his face.

Hearing the words of Mr. Damien, Zed's blood boiled in anger and he clenched his fists tightly.

    "You damn bastard!" Zed's voice echoed as he swung out his fist towards Mr. Damien. The fist traveled through the air at blinding speed, and before Mr. Damien could react, the fist connected neatly with his face and pushed him several steps backwards.The guards swiftly grabbed Zed's two arms, preventing him from sending out more attacks. Zed tried to break free but the guard's strength was overwhelming."You are finally showing your true colors, Zed. I was wondering when you'd stop pretending." Mr. Damien commented as he wiped the blood off his lips before shifting his gaze towards the bunch of reporters watching by the entrance."I'm sure by now you all already understand why I must fire him. I can't keep working with a lunatic. I mean, you suddenly attack someone for no reason at all?"

    Zed rode back to his new apartment after exiting the company. He drove through the street for several minutes until he finally pulled over in front of the apartment. He pushed the door open and stepped outside before making his way inside.Stepping into the apartment, Zed glanced around. This place brought back so many memories. Both good and bad memories. This was the apartment he lived in when he lost everything to the eclipse industries. It was also the apartment where he got the wealth system. "Didn't realize I'd miss this place." He mused while glancing around. He stood there for a few moments before heading to his room to get his clothes and other things he bought from the mall that night.

Several cars could also be seen, and different workers in blue jumpsuits were working on the cars.As Zed advanced forward, the workers paused what they were doing and shifted their gazes towards him. They all bowed slightly and greeted as he walked forward. Zed finally came to a halt, and a young worker with short blonde hair, clad in the blue jumpsuit, approached him."Good afternoon, boss."

Zed replied, his expression indifferent as he placed the bag of cash on the table in front of him.Travis pulled the bag closer and glanced inside.

Only the VVIps could afford such a wine.And right now Zed just made their dream a reality.Richard, on the other hand, stood there by the entrance. His blood boiling in anger as he watched everyone praise Zed like he was a god.As that was happening, a beautiful young lady in white suit and short white skirt that revealed her laps, walked towards Zed. She halted her steps in front of him and stretched forth a card towards him.The card resembled the one Richard showed him outside. The only difference was that the one Richard had was silver, while the one in the lady's hand was gold."Sir, if you don't mind we'll like to make you one of our VVIP customer." Luke stated.

Richard questioned, his right arm resting on Zed's shoulder, and his gaze filled with disdain.Hearing the words of Richard, Zed let out a sigh before turning around to face."What sort of question is that? Isn't this a restaurant? And what does a person do in a restaurant?" Zed questioned."Yeah, I understand you're going inside to eat, but not with this trash. She's not stepping foot inside." Richard spat, glaring at the lady beside Zed with looks of disgust."And are you the security or owner?" Zed asked. "If you're not the owner or manager then I see no reason for you to give out orders." He added."I'm not the manager or security, but I am a VIP customer, and when I say something it must be done!"

  • A trash at the restaurant

    Zed clicked on the email and the design of what the company has been working on for the test appeared on his screen. It was the design of a car. The image showed the ideas for the car and how they could make it happen, and it also showed their failures and the part they are currently stuck at."They are trying to create a car that's faster than the current fastest car in the world. Hmm.. that sounds interesting I'm not gonna lie." Zed mused as he examined the image closely. "The current fastest car travels at 1,228 kilometers per hour, and this car they are planning on creating would be reaching 2,000Km/h."Zed pondered while glancing at the design on the screen. As he studied it he suddenly realized the reason for their constant failures."Ah, I see why there hasn't been any progress and why they've been unable to surpass 1,228Km/h." Zed's eyes widened slightly. "The first reason is the Engine, second is the Stability and control, and the last reason is the weight of the car." Zed s

"Is there anything you'd like me to help you with, sir?" She asked."Well, since I'm new I'd like to see what the company is currently working on.

They both got into the car and Zed zoomed off, heading towards the area where the mansion was located.After a few minutes of driving they finally arrived at the mansion. The doors of the car opened and they both stepped outside. Zed took a few steps forward, his gaze fixed intently on the building.The mansion itself was a masterpiece of architecture, with towering columns supporting a sprawling balcony that overlooked the estate. The façade was composed of pristine white marbles, its surface gleaming under the sunlight. To the side of the mansion, a vast infinite swimming pool stretched towards the horizon, its crystal clear waters shimmering under the sunlight."Here it is, Sir." The female agent spoke up, her gaze fixed intently on Zed who was busy examining the mansion with looks of adoration."It's beautiful."
