Chapter 179

Drove Away

The youth asked, "Why did you help me?"

Lucille did not answer the question.

She squatted down and picked some of the food off the ground. Casually, she stated, "I'll take this as thank-you gift. It's not too much, is it?" After that, she got in a cab that was parked by the side of the road and drove off.

The rear end of the car disappeared out of sight on the empty street.

The teenager looked at the food rolling all over the ground and thought of the "thank-you gift" that Lucille

had taken away. For the first time, his chest was filled with sour yet swelling emotions.

He hadn't felt that way when even when he was pressed to the ground and beaten black and blue.

He hadn't felt that way when he lost all his faith in his dark life, either.

However, the moment he felt that he was respected and treated as an equal, his throat tightened.

The middle-aged woman set the stall back up and asked the young man beside her, "Ronald, do you know that girl from just now?"

Ronald Walsh nodded.

"She's in my school."

How could he not know her? Lucille was a celebrity on campus. She was always a hot topic.

However, the things being said about her were not very pleasant ones

The woman nodded and murmured, "So, you're schoolmates. No wonder. The girl went out of her way to help us. You should thank her. You don't have any friends in school, so if you can, you should try to get along with-" ""Mom, let's pack up and go home."

Ronald interrupted his mother's nagging and lowered his head to pick up the food.

He didn't have friends, and he didn't need them.

The next day...

It was the start of a new week.

As usual, Lucille went to school.

It was the official opening day of Tech Connex Pavilion Pavilion. She believed that the thugs would listen to her and bring a group of people over to make trouble.

It would definitely be very lively.

Lucille entered the classroom and waited patiently.

Not long after, her phone vibrated, showing that she had received 500,000 dollars in her account.

Her lips curled into a smile.

Those were decent earnings for their first day.

Early that morning, after the official opening of Tech Connex Pavilion, they popped some confetti to Drove way

celebrate. The thug rushed in with fifty of his men, saying that they were going to tear everything down. face of those. Hugo and James were experienced veterans, so all they did was yawn lazily in the amateurs. They didn't even flinch.

The leader of the group said that they were there on Lucille's orders.

At that moment, Hugo and James looked at each other. Not only did they suddenly understand, but they also began sharpening their weapons.

Then, they put on cold expressions and enthusiastically called out to the fifty men. They pushed all the men into the holographic experience pods and set it to the highest difficulty before saying, "Good luck!" Unfortunately, before the men could react, they began screaming out of fear due to the thrilling experiences in the virtual world.

They couldn't even hold on for two minutes before they quit the game.

After doing so, the group of young and vigorous men felt unconvinced. They began clamoring and demanded to try it one more time.

As a result, the fifty people spent a total of 500,000 dollars on tickets.

They still didn't give up and kept trying again and again.noveldrama

In the end, they had completely forgotten that they were supposed to be there to mess things up. All they wanted was to conquer the thrilling and exciting virtual world.

Hugo and James smiled as they counted the money, then they started a live broadcast.

Since they were two rugged, middle-aged men, there were very few viewers. The only three viewers they had were there because they clicked in on accident. They did not stay and left in an instant.

Even so, Hugo still tried his best to explain and introduce the concept of their business to the stream.

In order to attract people's attention, he aimed the camera at the thugs who were currently in the pods. At the same time, he told Robert to enable the viewing function, which broadcasted the virtual world onto a big screen. When people saw what was going on, their pathetic live stream finally got their first comment.

"This looks very interesting. Is it a movie?"
