Urban: Powerful Man

Chapter 9

After the joyful experience, Maximus continued to spin the wheel two more times, but both times he only received purple gift boxes.

"It seems like my luck isn't great. I wonder if the purple boxes contain any useful skills?"

Thinking about this, he immediately commanded the system to open the gift boxes, and the system's sound echoed again:

"Congratulations to the owner for receiving a one-year supply of 100% pure Fami milk and a ticket to watch a Doraemon movie."

Maximus shook his head. Both of these items were useless to him, but upon reflection, he could accumulate them and donate them to orphanages for children's care.

"Completed the mission on the train for one hour. The owner receives 10 experience points."

The mechanical sound of the system rang out, but this time Maximus didn't spin again and saved it for later. He could accumulate 10 spins, equivalent to 100 points, to continuously spin for 10 rounds. As an experienced gamer, Maximus believed that this way, the probability of getting high-quality gift boxes would be higher compared to spinning them one by one.

Arriving at the next station, Maximus took a taxi back to his mansion.

...

After finishing dinner, Maximus immediately entered the game.

Heros Mobie!

This was a game that young people played. It was a cooperative team game that required high skills and good coordination with other members. Maximus used to be a top player in Heros Mobie, but due to work, he played less. But now that he had money and time, he started playing the game again.

"Attack, attack! Oh my god, Victor is about to destroy the enemy's tower with just a little HP left! Oh my god! Do you guys know how to attack the tower? Why do you keep fighting without focusing on the tower?"

Maximus got angry and scolded his stupid teammates when they lost the game. After scolding, he realized that he was reported for using offensive language, and the game publisher restricted his chat function during matches.

"Trash game!"

Maximus angrily cursed a sentence and was about to continue playing when his phone switched to incoming call mode. A name appeared on the phone screen, "Bonnie!"

"Oh! It's Bonnie."

Maximus immediately gave up playing the game and answered the phone.

"Maximus, where are you?" After accepting the call, Bonnie's voice came through the phone.

Maximus laughed and said, "Why are you calling me today? You're usually busy with your work."

Bonnie was a girl Maximus had known since childhood.

They both grew up in an orphanage, and Maximus considered Bonnie as his younger sister. He loved Bonnie very much, and Bonnie also had deep affection for Maximus.

After graduating from university, Bonnie started working for a real estate company.

Since they were young, Bonnie understood the situation very well. Every month, apart from keeping a small amount for living expenses, she sent the rest of her salary to the orphanage where they had lived.

It was rumored that she sent no less than $2,500 every month, and until now, she had already sent over $20,000.

On the other hand, Maximus had been working for over three years but had only managed to save a small amount. This showed that Bonnie was a hardworking girl who knew how to think and appreciate the place that nurtured her.

Thinking about the orphanage where they had lived, Maximus decided to have his secretary, Olivia, contribute $30 million annually to them.

"Maximus, how could you think like that? I just want to gain work experience and focus on the future. I'm usually busy, but today I have some free time, so I called you. Is that not allowed?"

Maximus was a little annoyed, and he asked, "Are you free now?"

"I'm very free. Is there something wrong? Your voice doesn't sound very happy. Did your colleagues bully you at work? Or is there someone superior bothering you? Tell me, I'll go and give them a good beating for you!"

Maximus said seriously.

Maximus didn't want his life to change. If Bonnie found out about his wealth, their relationship might change. Bonnie was a somewhat insecure girl, and now that she knew Maximus had become rich, she would surely feel that they no longer belonged to the same social class. There might be conflicts in their relationship, so for now, Maximus had no intention of telling Bonnie.

"Sigh! You're right! After all this time, you still understand me the best!"

Bonnie didn't hide anything and admitted directly.

Afterward, Bonnie began sharing with Maximus about the issues she faced at the OZZ company.

"I'm truly not happy. At the company, my colleagues have been talking badly about me. It's so infuriating! They say I use despicable methods to secure client contracts and even complain to the manager."

Bonnie wanted to resign, but leaving the company after working there for two years would indeed be a bit disappointing. That's why Bonnie called Maximus to ask for his opinion. If Maximus agreed, she would quit her job there and look for another one.

Now that the economy is growing and if Bonnie doesn't work for this company, she can find another company, so she's not worried about not finding a job for herself.

Maximus listened silently to the whole story Bonnie told, and he felt very unhappy inside. He considered Bonnie as a family member, and now hearing that she was being bullied, he couldn't bear it.

In the past, he didn't have the ability to help Bonnie, but now he could!

"Bonnie, where are you working?"

After all, he is now the chairman of a multi-billion-dollar corporation and can easily help Bonnie find a position in the company. This is too simple.

"I work at the OZZ company. Why are you asking about this?"

Bonnie didn't understand why Maximus was asking her this. What could he solve by knowing where she worked? They were both just employees working for others, and she knew that Maximus's company was even worse off than hers, so she found it difficult to understand Maximus's question.

She also didn't believe that Maximus could help her with anything. Moreover, her purpose for calling was just to get advice from Maximus and have him listen to her!
