Jeff did not go home immediately because he needed to buy some fabric from the school.
After making the purchase, he went to the nearest tailor shop to have it sewn into a uniform. He asked what time he could pick it up, and the worker said it would take about one week.
Jeff frowned, thinking that the wait was too long. He decided to pay triple the amount.
As the worker and the owner, who was at the counter, both had eyes that lit up with excitement.
"Don’t worry, sir. Today we don’t have a lot of work, so it will be done by tomorrow," the owner said to Jeff with a bright smile, his hands clasped politely.
The tailor shop owner was surprised to find that the student was actually someone with money.
This was a valuable customer, and if he could satisfy him, there was a good chance he would return.
Seeing how money could influence others made Jeff realize even more that wealth was the true definition of power and status.
"That’s good, sir. I’ll come back tomorrow in the afternoon after classes end. I’ll send the payment now," Jeff said, then used his card to transfer the money.
The total payment should have been 6,200. But since he paid triple, the amount became significantly larger.
When Jeff left, he was personally assisted by the shop owner, who wore a happy expression. Jeff then went home feeling excited.
This time, he planned to surprise his mother. However, when he entered his room and was about to make a video call, he suddenly stopped.
He decided not to tell her for the moment, choosing instead to wait until he had bought a house where they could live together, its a place where his mother could finally retire in peace. Newest update provıded by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥
With that plan in mind, he became determined to develop RAZi even further. He remained completely focused, letting the hours pass as he worked tirelessly.
He only took short breaks to drink water and eat dinner. Other than that, he stayed fully concentrated on his task, refusing to stop.
It was around 9:02 in the evening when Jeff decided to take a break and sleep for the night, as his sleeping pattern had been disrupted earlier that morning.
As he dozed off, outside on the road where only a few people were coming and going, a teenage girl around seventeen years old was walking alone in the night.
She was not unattractive, especially with her innocent appearance, which added a certain charm to her. She walked with a tote bag in her left hand.
She then turned left and walked along a narrow road that was clearly a shortcut to her destination, but the place was completely devoid of people.
As she was walking along the side road, a narrow path that followed the edge of the main street.
In her field of view, there was also a guy who looked like a gangster, judging by his dyed red hair.
She tried to move a bit farther to the right, hoping that when they crossed paths, she would go unnoticed.
But contrary to her expectations, as they passed each other, the guy who looked like a gangster stared directly at her.
His piercing gaze made her panic. She lowered her head and quickened her pace, but the guy stepped in front of her, blocking her path with a menacing smile.
"Hey girl, it’s already so late at night. Do you want me to accompany you back home? It’s dangerous for a beautiful girl like you to be wandering around this late," the guy said with a smile.
But to the girl, that smile felt like it came from the devil.
She shook her head and replied, "I’m fine, big brother. I should leave you alone so I don’t disturb you," she said, trying to step to the side to escape.
However, her path was blocked once again.
She tried to move from side to side, but her path remained blocked. The small sense of despair she had felt earlier began to grow stronger.
"Uhh, big brother, please move out of the way," she said softly.
Her innocent expression only seemed to intensify the glint in the guy’s eyes.
"Didn’t I offer to take you home? Let me help you," he said as he extended his hand and grabbed her arm tightly.
The girl trembled even more, her body frozen in fear. It felt as though her legs were about to give out beneath her.
"Uhh... Big Brother... It’s fine. Please let me go..." she stuttered, her voice trembling with fear.
The sight of her despair only seemed to excite the young man further.
He leaned in close to her face, sticking out his tongue as if to lick her cheek, though it was only the air he was licking.
"Girl, you’re going to experience something wild tonight," he whispered.
The heat of his breath brushed against her face, making her complexion turn pale as snow.
"Noooo!!!" she screamed, but the man was quick.
He pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and pressed it over her mouth, muffling her cries.
Tears streamed down her face as her strength faded, and she eventually lost consciousness.
There were no more people in the area, as the road was not a common route even during the day.
At night, it was completely deserted, with no one passing through.
As she finally lost consciousness, the girl went limp in the thug-like guys arms.
He carried her toward a secluded path that was slightly hidden from public view. Nearby, a car was parked, and he began to carry out his devious intent.
Morning came, and Jeff stretched his arms before instinctively rubbing his stomach out of habit.
Just then, a sudden notification from the system echoed in his mind, snapping his drowsy eyes wide open.
[Today you have accumulated a total of $9,243]
[2x earning activated...]
[You have received: $18,486]
Then his phone vibrated, and upon checking, he saw that the money had been deposited into his bank account.
He quickly opened his banking app, and his smile grew even brighter.
He had already spent a portion of the money, but he still had more than enough left.
Now, the only major thing he needed to purchase was a house, especially since he would be staying here for one more year to complete his senior high school.
He planned to buy a house in the city once he became a college student, but before doing that, he needed to purchase a home in his hometown first.
If he intended to let his mother retire from working, where would she stay? Living in his grandmother’s house was not a good option, and staying with his paternal grandmother was also out of the question.
Buying their own house was clearly the wisest choice, especially since his mother had a strained relationship with both sides of the family.
Since it was only five in the morning, he had plenty of time to prepare. He opened his browser and typed into the search bar, looking for a house and lot for sale in Sara.
Several relevant results appeared, and he clicked on the first link, which had a 4.9-star rating.
Once the page loaded, he navigated to the house and lot section, where a wide range of options was displayed.
