[Transfer successful]
[Your account has been credited with 750,000,000,000,000]Edward's eyes widened in shock after reading the message. Rubbing his eyes to confirm if he wasn't imagining things. '750 Trillion dollars?' Edward pondered his expression mixed with surprise and joy at the same time. Edward quickly rushed up from his bed and hurried to his computer that he left on while going to work. 'It worked?' Edward thought with his eyes wide opened. Leaving the computer turned on,the extraction process was completed then the transfer began for another set of hours. 'I can't believe it. I finally succeeded.' Edward pondered,typing away in his computer to make sure they don't reverse the funds he had just received from an unknown source. Edward had no clue who's bank account he has been trying to hack for months now,all he did was try by passing the rich men's account around Brickwoods. 'Maybe i'm just getting too excited. I don't know if it's even real.' Edward said,glancing at his phone screen once more to read the message again. Edward quickly opened his closet and took out a black hoodie,putting it on and heading out of the house with his Atm card. It was already dark and late,not safe for anyone to walk around this late in Brickwoods. Dangerous gangs and thugs usually operate when the sun is down,and it wasn't advisable for town folks to walk about freely. Most gangs are sponsored by the rich men in Brickwoods,paying the gang to rob from houses and companies and also carrying out some dirty missions for them. Most young boys around Brickwoods chose to join some certain gang because of the high pay they get. Edward once thought about joining one,but after thinking about all he had gone through in life,he couldn't. Joining a gang would only ruin his life and future. Walking through the silent empty streets of Brickwoods with his hoodie covering his jet black hair,Edward kept his guard on incase he spots any gang around,he would b able to flee. After walking for few minutes,Edward arived infront of an Atm machine stationed beside a night club. The sound of loud music and noises coming from inside the club,made Edward realise that lots of gang members are in there and he had to be quick with what he wanted to do. Edward inserted his credit card inside the machine and placed his finger on the button, 'Uh..let's try,1$ dollar' Edward pressed the button after concluding. [Transaction approved] The notification appeared in the atm machine,and a dollar note slid outside with his card. Edward picked up the money in surprise and joy. Staring at the dollar note like a slave who finally got paid after 50 years of hard labour.Ding* [Debit alert: 1$] [Balance: 74,999,999,999,999] Edward glanced at the message and saw his available balance. The whole theory now cleared Edward's doubts. He finally believed that his hack worked,and he truly is rich now. 'Who ever owned this money was a bad person,i'm sure of it. So i shouldn't be feeling any remorse,but instead,i should live like a rich man now.' Edward thought,sliding the dollar note into his pants pocket and was about to leave. "Why would boss call us so urgently?" A deep male's voice spoke from behind. Edward quickly turned around and saw six rugged looking guys,dressed in red singlet and red bandana around their neck with tattoo all over,they all walked out of the club. Edward quickly hid himself behind a car that was packed outside the club "I don't know,but he sounded pretty urgent on the phone." The other replied,blowing out smoke from his mouth. "Maybe he needs us to whack someone."Edward hid behind the car trying his best not to breath loudly to avoid getting caught by the thugs. Edward felt like the footsteps were getting louder and closer to where he was,taking a peek,Edward saw the gang entering the same car he was hiding behind. "Hey,who are you?!" One of the gang member spotted Edward,Edward quickly turned around and dashed away from their location. "Get him!" They started the car and began to chase Edward closely behind. 'God,am i going to die without enjoying the money i suffered so much to get?!' Edward thought while running as fast as his legs could carry him. Taking different turns to lose them,but it didn't work.Bang* Bang* The sound of gunshots reverberated throughout the silent street,making Edward's heart beat faster and felt like it was going to jump out from his mouth. The bullets missed him and hits metal,causing a loud clanging sound. "Where did he go?" One of the gang member asked in surprise as he got off the car and glanced around the area. "We lost him. Let's just go,boss is waiting." They got back in the car and drove off. Out of a small metal round container, Edward crawled out after noticing they were gone. 'That was close.' Edward thought with his hand on his chest and panting heavily out of tiredness. He quickly head back to his house through some shortcuts to avoid running into his 'Friends.'Edward arrived at his apartment,a two story building with faded paint and tattered environment. Individuals who weren't able to afford a nice appartment in Brickwoods,chose to settle in the one room apartment.Edward climbed the steps,footsteps echoing with every step he took. His room was located at the top floor of the building. Arriving infront of his door,Edward unlocked his door and was about to go in.. "Where are you coming from?" A female's voice said from behind,startled,Edward quickly turned around to see who just spoke. After catching a glimpse of the girl,Edward scoffed and ignored her question. The girl was Angela Alvarez,daughter of a Brickwoods sheriff. Sporting brown hair that touched her waist,a heart like shaped face and a hot body. Anyone who spot her on the street would conclude that she was the daughter of one of the rich men. But she wasn't rich,nor is her family rich. Working as a sheriff,Angela's dad was earning a decent amount of money and the family was d
Edward sat inside his small room,thinking about how to spend the money without getting suspicious. Ofcourse,people would ask questions about how a common security guard suddenly got trillions to spend around. Edward didn't want the gang leaders finding out he was the one holding their money,if they do,it will be his end. 'Maybe i should just travel to another town?' Edward suggested internally. Relocating to another town where no one knew who he was would fix his whole problem, 'Nah,i need to remain in Brickwoods and prove to those people who looked down on me that i am now far richer than they will ever be.' A smile formed on Edward's face after creating a scenario about the faces those rich people and also his girlfriend that ones lookes down on him would make when they see him driving in a brand new golden lamborghini,and convoy of ferrari following behind him. 'Haha,They'll be like,yo who's this man? And i'll say,yo,I'm just Edward. Haha' Edward laughed out loud at his thought
"What's the matter, Angela?" Edward inquired, concerned."Answer me truthfully, Edward," Angela began. "Where did you get such an amount of money?" The question came out of the blue for Edward,he didn't expect such question when he only spent a little amount of money. A security guard having $10,000 wasn't something that looked suspicious. Angela's question now made Edward realized how poor he was to other people's eyes to the extent that they assumed he had no scent. "I-i have been saving it up since i began my security job." Edward replied,saddness written evident on his face. "Hey,i didn't mean it like that" Angela patted his shoulder "I was just afraid that maybe you joined a gang that pays high. Joining a gang is dangerous, i wouldn't want anything happen to you,Ed." Angela has always cared about Edward ever since he moved to that apartment 7 years ago. She didn't see any difference between both of them since Edward was also from a poor background,the only difference she saw
Beep* Beep* Beep* The sound of monitor beeping inside the ward was heard,the ward was finally calm since the operation was over. The nurses and doctor proceeded with the operation and was successful after a few hours. Angela sat on a chair,her head bent to the back,snoring loudly after waiting for hours. The entrance door swung open,and Edward walked in and saw Angela sleeping in an uncomfortable position. The day was gradually getting dark and it was a law for the folks around Brickwoods to stay indoors when it's night time. Edward stood over Angela,glancing at her worried and tired face while she slept. 'You won't have to worry anymore,My friend.' Edward said internally,joy filled him that atleast he was able to use his new found riches for good. Edward lifted Angela off the chair with both arms,not wanting to disturb her sleep by waking her. He carried her outside,informing the nurses that he needed to get her home before midnight. Edward took her to the Uber waiting for hi
"Great speech today, Vice Mayor Charles.""Have a good day, Vice Mayor.""We love you, Vice Mayor."Compliments poured forth for the vice mayor, Charles Munrow, as he navigated the throng, his son Malcolm at his side.Having just concluded an address outlining plans to allocate trillions of US dollars for city security against gangs, Vice Mayor Charles Munrow and his son made their way to the sleek, obsidian-hued Bugatti, flanked by seven armed sentinels.Amidst a flurry of camera flashes and journalists wielding microphones, hope hung in the air that the vice mayor might pause for inquiries. However, this was not to be.The door was opened, affording the vice mayor and Malcolm passage to the opulent interior."Feeling alright, Malcolm?" Vice Mayor inquired from his seated position."Yeah, I'm fine, Dad," Malcolm replied, engrossed in his phone and wearing a grin. The vice mayor's curiosity was piqued by his son's amusement. Upon glimpsing the screen, a name stood out boldly: (Kate.)
A hush fell over the room after Edward concluded his explanation, awaiting Simon's reaction and response.After a few moments of silence, Simon finally broke it with laughter.."Dude, what's so funny?" Edward inquired, his expression one of bafflement. He had expected Simon's rebuke or stern words, not laughter."Very funny, dude," Simon managed to say through his chuckles."I'm serious, bro. You don't believe me?" Edward asked, his tone earnest. Seeing Edward's expression and hearing his tone, Simon quickly realized this was no joke.The two had been inseparable for seven years since Edward moved to Brickwoods. Simon, orphaned after his parents joined a gang for his future, faced harsh circumstances. People treated him poorly due to his poverty and shaved head, until he met Edward, someone who understood him and was willing to spend time together.Simon had never seen Edward act this way, so he knew it was serious and pressing."Wait, it's all true? You embezzled trillions of doll
Angela sat quietly inside the hospital ward waiting for her mother to finally wake up. Earlier,she knocked on Edward's door to inform him about the miracle that happened suddenly,how the bills was suddenly cleared by an unknown person,but he wasn't home.Examining her mother,Angela could see her mother's fingers moving gently,and slowly her eyelids lifted open.She opening her eyes didn't came as a surprise for Angela,her eyes was always opened but couldn't blink or move at all. What surprised Angela was the fact that her mother was able to move her fingers."Mom?" Angela called out,unsure whether she was cured or not.After few seconds of waiting,Angela's mom finally spoke slowly,"A..ngela"Hearing her mom call her name,Angela hugged her and began to let out tears of joy.The entrance door swung open,and Angela's dad walked in dressed in his sheriff uniform. Mr Alvarez has been working all through the day because of the Vice Mayor's murder earlier,all sheriff's were given extra tasks
The late night moon was already out,Brickwoods folks remained indoors to avoid crossing paths with a gang.Thunder rumbling and rain falline heavily,Walking through the dark streets,Edward's eyes were glued to his phone as he used google map to take him to his location.Edward has his hoodie covering his head,shielding him from the rain and a bag in his hand.Edward stopped by an Atm and withdrew some cash just incase. [Debit alert: $200,000]Edward placed the money into the bag and continued walking.After what seemed like forever,Edward finally arrived at the location.The place was less than half of what Edward anticipated. All he could see was an incompleted building with two reasonably large men standing guard.Edward gathred up some courage and began to approach the men. At first he was scared when he spotted gun in the men hand,but after realizing this place wasn't run by gangs,he approached them."Good evening Boys." Edward greeted,trying hard to make his voice deep and rugg
