I’m A Quadrillionaire Chapter 31-40

Chapter 31

The gang came to the KTV under the lead of the attendant. After they entered the room, they started to let themselves go. Since the room was pretty dim and they had a bit of alcohol, Patrick and Madison directly went to the corner and started having a go at each other affectionately.

This sudden public display of affection shocked everyone in the room. However, they did not mind and soon started having their own fun. The three beautiful girls were singing and, aside from David, the other two musketeers were playing with their phones.

David was a little bored sitting on the sofa, but he figured that it was not good to follow their example. Thus, he could only listen to the girls’ voices. He had to say that even though they were in the Acting Department, their voices were still pretty good.

Time passed slowly.

It was time for these beauties to rest after they felt tired. Patrick grabbed the microphone and said, “A huge thanks to the three beauties for coming out with us today.”
Then, he pointed at David and continued, “This is my friend David, and he’s still single now. If any of you don’t have a boyfriend, you can exchange contact details with him to get to know each other. Who knows, you might become a couple. Everything else aside, my friend is definitely very loyal to his partner.”

When David heard this, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. ‘Is he praising me or roasting me?’ He was pretty loyal. He was so loyal that he could vomit blood and pass out after he was dumped.

The people who did not know what was going on might think that Patrick was praising him, but the ones who knew the truth would definitely laugh at this. Pat might have drank a lot tonight. After Patrick finished saying that, he waited for the reactions from the beautiful girls.

He heard from Madison that the three girls did not have boyfriends yet, so that was why he did this Even so, David might not have a chance with Tara, who was the tallest. Even a playboy like Patrick would fail in pursuing a goddess like that, let
alone David.

However, David would have a chance with the other two. Besides, David seemed to have undergone some changes recently. He looked stronger and his temperament changed as well. He did not look as timid as he was when he was with Sarah. He looked more confident now. In short, he had a pretty good demeanor now.

When Rosalie and Eliza heard what Patrick said, they did not react. They could tell that among the four boys in the same dorm, aside from Patrick who came from a rich family, the rest were all paupers. They could tell the moment they saw the boys arrive in Patrick’s car.

Which rich kid would carpool with others?

Was it because it was on the way and they could save on petrol?

Stop joking! Would a rich kid care about this?

Even though David came later, the cheap clothes on his body proved at a glance that he was not rich. Even though David looked pretty handsome and stylish, could they survive with only looks?

Moreover, they were from the Acting Department of South River Multimedia University, so they had seen a lot of handsome guys before. David would only be considered passable if he was in their university.

They did not want to waste their youth on this kind of person. The two of them did not react, but someone else did. Tara was curious about David. He was a big shot and yet was pretending to be a pauper. Plus, he was hiding it pretty well. Even his roommates did not notice this. Tara wanted to remind her roommates.

‘The rich kid you always wanted to be with is right in front of you and he’s extraordinarily rich, but you’re pretending not to see him?

‘There is a mountain of gold in front of you, but you guys just treat it as manure.’
She wanted to know what kind of expression her roommates would display if they knew who David was.

Would they be annoyed?

Remorseful?

To people like them who treat dating a rich kid as their ultimate life goal, this might kill them. ‘Alright, if you don’t want him, then I’ll go ahead! With that, Tara stood up and walked in front of David.

She reached out her right hand and said, “David, hello, I am Tara. I am a Year 3 student in the Acting Department of South River Multimedia University. Pleased to meet you. I hope we can be friends and get to know each other more.”

After she said this, the room fell silent. Patrick almost lost his grip on the microphone. Would a goddess like Tara take a fancy to David? Who would believe this?

The three musketeers suddenly remembered in unison that Goddess Amelia had gone to look for David the previous afternoon too. Did David have some magical charm that could attract goddesses? The the first time was just a coincidence!

Chapter 32

Then what about the second time?

Would there be a third or fourth time?

Damn, did his life turn for the better after he was dumped?

At this moment, David was a little astonished as well. He felt that after having the system, he started getting extremely lucky with the ladies. First, it was Pearl, then it was Amelia, and now Tara. They were all goddesses too.

‘Which one should I choose? ‘Only kids make choices. I want all of them…’ David came back to his senses quickly.

Then, he stood up and said, “Hello, Tara, please to meet you too!” The two of them shook hands briefly and then exchanged phone numbers and Instagram handles. At this moment, the door of the room opened. A few of them thought it was the attendant. However, the first person to come through the door was a short and fat
middle-aged man.

After him followed the director Simon who met Tara yesterday. Simon and Hector were accompanying two other investors tonight, but on their way here, they saw Tara and a few of her friends here too. So, Hector asked his secretary to follow them to see which private room they were in. After they settled the two investors, they came straight here.

After they entered the room, Simon started introducing himself, “Hello, everyone. My name is Simon Peters.” Then, he started introducing the short and fat middle-aged man next to him.

“This is Mr. Gomez from Starlight Entertainment. The reason we’re here today is to get to know you all. You should be students from SRMU, right? Mr. Gomez and I came to River City because we want to go to your university to look for characters for our movie with a total investment of over 100 million. Do you mind drinking with us?”

After Simon finished talking, Hector walked in front of Tara impatiently and said, “You must be Tara! I am Hector Gomez from Starlight Entertainment. Pleased to meet you. I think you’re very classy and that you’re perfect for the female lead of the movie our company invested in.”

Hector’s eyes were sparkling when he looked at Tara in front of him. She was so beautiful and classy. Plus, she was a head taller than him. So, when he spoke to her, he would need to lift his head slightly. He liked women who were taller than him. This could trigger his dominance, so no matter what, he had to get this
woman.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Gomez. I’m not interested in being a part of your movie,” Tara answered calmly.

Tara suddenly understood as she looked at Simon and Hector who had shown up without warning, She figured that Simon was probably asking her out yesterday to
accompany this Mr. Hector Gomez in front of her.

Tara felt disgusted when she looked at Hector’s short and fat body. It would be better if they just killed Tara if they wanted her to accompany this kind of person. She did not care about the role of the female lead anyway.

“Miss Smith, you might not know that we have invested 100 million into this movie. There might even be an increase in investment amount in the future. Plus, we even asked the popular celebrity Marie Kent to be the supporting female lead. If you accept the role, you’ll rise to fame overnight!” Hector continued to entice her.

After he said that, Tara did not feel anything. However, Eliza, Rosalie, and Madison on the side were moved. The female lead? Supported by Marie Kent? She would shoot to fame for sure. Who did not want to get famous after choosing to get into the Acting Department? Who did not want to be a star?

However, they just did not have the chance to do so. “I’m sorry, Mr. Gomez, I really am not interested.” Tara was still unmoved.

“Mr. Gomez, Mr. Gomez, I’m interested!”

“Mr. Gomez, I’m interested too!” Eliza and Rosalie quickly came over and said.

However, since Madison’s boyfriend Patrick was around, she did not go over. She finally got a rich boyfriend after so many difficulties, so she did not want to lose everything. Hector was not interested in Eliza and Rosalie.

He had played with a lot of women like this before. Hector gave Simon a look, asking him to talk to Tara for him. However, Tara did not give them the chance.

She immediately said to Madison, “Maddie, I still have something I need to take care of, so I’ll get going now. Have fun.”

Then, she said to David, “David, can you drive me?”

“Oh, alright!” David answered quickly. He wanted to leave a long time ago and now he finally had an excuse. After informing everyone in the room, the two left together.

Chapter 33

David and soon Tara left. Hector, who was left in the room, had an unpleasant look on his face. It had been a long time since Hector met such a disrespectful woman
after becoming the manager of Starlight Entertainment.

Hector could not do anything to those women who did not want to join showbiz and were also very stubborn. Elize and Rosalie sat down on either side of Hector and started toasting him.

They really wanted to get this role. Aside from Patrick from the three musketeers who always continued on his own path, the other two were starting to butter Simon up. After all, Simon was a director with a bit of popularity, and he was already a big shot to Finn and the gang. With that, these people started drinking with different intentions in their hearts.

Meanwhile, David and Tara got into the elevator to go downstairs. When they were inside the elevator, Tara suddenly asked, “David, does this hotel belong to your family?”

“Huh?” David did not have time to react. “Don’t try to find an excuse to hide. I know you must have a very deep connection with this hotel,” Tara said again.

“I’m not hiding anything, and I don’t know what you’re talking about!” David said.

“David, the hotel can’t give out free dinners because of an event, plus, each dinner meal costs more than a hundred thousand bucks. You went a bit overboard. A discount would have been better.”

“What do I have to do with whether the hotel gives out free dinners or not?”

“David, it’s fine if you don’t want to admit it, but you should know that a woman’s intuition is very accurate! You must be the one who told the hotel to give out the free dinners, and only very important people in the hotel can do that. Let us analyze this properly when Maddie and the rest get here. We’ll see who here has so much authority.”

David felt that this woman was amazing. She was so smart! She could even figure out who gave out the free dinner. It was such a waste that she was not a detective. However, he did not know that Tara only confirmed this because she saw the attendants fawning over him when he entered the hotel the day
before.

“Alright! Tara, you win. I was the one who arranged for the free dinner.” David knew that he could not hide anymore, so he simply admitted.

“What’s your relationship with the hotel?” When Tara saw that David had confessed, she asked curiously.

“Just like you said, my family owns this hotel.” “So you’re the young master?”

“I think so.”

“Not bad! David, I didn’t think that you were a super-rich kid!”

“Tara, you’re not bad as well. You rejected the director and the investor when they came and asked you to be the female lead.”

“I’m not as good as a super-rich kid like you.” The two of them walked out of the hotel while chatting.

“Tara, do you need me to drive you home?” David asked as they stood at the hotel’s entrance.

“Of course! Do you expect me to hail a cab?” Tara looked at him matter-of-factly. Alright. David shrugged and called his Benz G-Class over. Then, he drove Tara back to South River Multimedia University.

After he sent Tara back, David went back to International Residence. Pearl had already fallen asleep. David figured that Pearl must have been exhausted over these past few days. The handover of the hotel must be mired in minor details. After he showered, he lay down in bed.

After a while, he turned on his laptop and logged into Whale Streaming. Amelia was not streaming, nor was his cousin Lily. Hence, David was just wandering around, but his level was indeed a little terrifying. He was at Level 1100. Whenever someone was at Level 1000 and above, they would be King. David casually clicked on a game stream. Once he entered the stream, a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon started circling on his screen.

Then, four golden words appeared. ‘The King Has Arrived!’ This arrival was astounding.

The stream immediately blew up. “Damn, the legendary Mr. Match is here!”

“Welcome, Mr. Match!”

“Welcome, Mr. Match! We honor your presence. Please offer us guidance!”

Chapter 34

The streamer was playing The Island. It was a very cute girl whose name was Jasmine. When she saw David, who was a king of Level 1000 and above, she hid
in a corner. Then, she stood up and lifted the pinkies of her both hands up.

After that, she bent her knees slightly and said softly, “Welcome to my stream, Mr. Match. It’s an honor to have you here.”

This was a super big shot, so she had to entertain him well. The cute streamer’s gestures amused David. Money truly made the world go round. David immediately commented.

“Jasmine, play the game well. If you win, I’ll give you 666 Super Rockets as a celebration.”

When Jasmine saw David’s comment, she was beyond surprised. If she won this round, then it would be even more worthwhile than winning a hundred times or a thousand times during normal times! She quickly sat down and continued the game.

As she played, she said, “Thanks for the support, Mr. Match! I’ll work hard to win!” The audience who was watching this started spamming at the comment section again.

“Mr. Match, you’re the man!”

“Mr. Match, you’re so awesome!”

“Mr. Match, you’re incomparable indeed! The way you spend money is so out of the ordinary!” Jasmine controlled the character in the game carefully. Her skills were okay normally and she could win 8 out of every 10 rounds.

However, she was scared that she would lose. If she did, then her gift of over one million bucks would be gone. Therefore, she was understandably very nervous. She surmounted all difficulties and when there were only three people left, Jasmine let out a sigh of relief. She should be able to win now. However, suddenly, a grenade landed next to her, so she quickly jumped to the other side, but it was too late. With a boom, Jasmine died in the explosion.

At that moment, Jasmine wanted to kill someone. She could taste that gift of one million bucks, but now it was gone. Jasmine sat in front of the computer for a long time, unable to speak. The audience in the stream also expressed their pity.

David felt that her skills were still okay. He was itching to play too so he posted another comment. “Jasmine, why don’t you play with me? Jasmine came back to her senses when she saw David’s comment. So, she quickly replied, “Sure of course, where are you, Mr. Match? I’ll go find you.” David entered the game and the two of them formed a team to start a new round. The two of them landed in a valley and started picking up weapons to arm themselves.

Jasmine kept running around David and would give David all the good equipment. David did not reject it either. To be honest, David was not that good because he did not play often. However, the two seemed to be very lucky as there were no powerful enemies during this round.

Finally, Jasmine successfully brought David to the peak and won. This was also the first time David won. Even though he was not great at gaming, the strange thing was that no one was scolding him in the stream.

They even said he was good at it. Who would dare to scold this kind of big shot? Would this kind of person be bad in real life if he could spend tens of millions on streams? If they angered this big shot, he would find them no matter where they were.

David was in a good mood, so he started launching Super Rockets.

When everyone thought this was over.

[Lil Match gave streamer Jasmine Super Rocket x888]

(Lil Match gave streamer Jasmine Super Rocket x1314)

Finally, the number of Super Rockers stopped at 1314.

This was worth more than two million. Whale Streaming’s most expensive gaming companion was announced. The streamer played The Island with the user and received a gift of more than 2.6 million when they won. Jasmine followed David on Instagram and asked David to look for her whenever he wanted to play games.

Chapter 35

Since there would be a holiday in May, they would not have days off for this weekend. The talent show for Labor Day would also be held a day before the break. David went to class as usual this period. As time passed, David’s incident slowly lost traction, but he was also considered a famous person at the university.

The handover of the Golden Leaf Hotel was also completed, and David was now officially the boss of Golden Leaf Hotel. Additionally, he successfully spent 18 billion and obtained 180 lavish points.

After spending 40 lavish points to upgrade his body and mind to 50 points, David did not continue upgrading anymore. He felt that the difference between 45 points and 50 points was not too large. When he was at the 50-point mark, his body and mind were now in the ‘pretty strong.

David did not use the remaining 140 points so that he could add to any skills whenever he wanted. One day before the Labor Day holiday. David did not have class in the afternoon, so he rested in his dormitory to get ready for the talent show at night The holidays had started for the South River Multimedia University and the ones whose homes were nearby had started to leave the university one
after another.

In the dormitory, Tara was packing her things to get ready to go home. Suddenly, her phone rang. Tara picked up her phone and saw that it was her mother, so she quickly answered it.

However, after she ended the phone call, she was stunned.. Her mother told her that she should not come home for the time being. Plus, she also transferred one hundred thousand bucks to her and asked her to be frugal. Tara could feel that something must have happened at home, so after she questioned her mother, her mother finally told her the truth while crying.

Her family business failed, and they were in debt. Now, the house was being monitored by their debtors and as soon as Tara went home, she would be stopped by those debtors. Hence, her family could only hide in her grandparent’s house.

Her father had not been eating or drinking for two days and he had lost a lot of weight. Besides this, he would not listen to anyone. In Tara’s heart, her father was the sky, and now, the sky had collapsed. She could not understand. Her family had been doing business for so many years, so how did they go bankrupt suddenly?

She had to go back now and find out what was going on. If she did not go back now, she was worried that she would not be able to see her parents.

After quickly packing. Tara rushed straight home. Her home was in Goat City, which was not far from River City. She would reach in about half an hour if she took the train. Even if she drove, it would only take two to three hours. When she got to her grandparent’s house, it was almost evening.

Knock knock!

Tara recomposed herself and knocked on the door. No one answered.

Knock knock!

Tara knocked again. Still, no one answered. ‘Could it be… No!

No way!’ Tara’s heart trembled and she quickly took out her phone to call her
mother.

Chapter 36

The phone call connected, “Mom, I’m back and I’m outside grandma’s house. Open the door!” Tara said anxiously.

“Tara, you’re back? Didn’t I tell you not to come back?” Tara heard her mother’s voice from the phone, and she let out a sigh of relief in her heart. Even though she sounded exhausted, at least she was still alive, Soon, the door was finally opened.

When Tara saw her mother, she could not control herself. She held her mother and started crying. After they cried for a while, they went into the house.

When they saw that there was no one else in the house, Tara asked, “Mom, what happened? Where’s Dad? Where’s grandpa and grandma? Where’s my sister?”

“Your uncle came and took your grandparents and sister away. Your father locked himself in the room and refused to come out. Tara, go talk to your father. He hasn’t eaten in two days. If this goes on, his body won’t be able to take it.”

After Tara entered the room and saw the man sitting there smoking, she could not relate this man, whose hair had almost turned all white, to her father. Back then, he was so high-spirited. He came from a rural area and had made something for himself in the city.

He was the one with the most prospect in the family, and everyone would give him a thumbs-up whenever they saw him. However, the man in front of her looked dead inside. This man in his forties now looked like he was in his sixties.

“Dad!” Tara called out, tears streaming down her face. Her father did not answer her. He was still minding his own business and smoking his cigarette.

After he finished one, he continued with another. “Mom, what happened? How did dad become like this?” Tara turned her head to look at her mother.

“Sigh, your father was scammed. His partner stole all of the company’s money and left the country. Your father is the legal owner of the company, so his name is on all of the loans and receipts.

Aside from the bank, there are still debts from the loan sharks. Your father could not endure this, so his hair turned white none night. He’s been sitting here for two days.”

“Why? Why did this happen? We were fine before, how did this happen?” Tara collapsed on the group, tears flowing down her face uncontrollably.

A few months ago, before she left, her family was still peaceful and harmonious. Her father was still the man of indomitable spirit as before. Her mother was still that middle-aged woman who loved to nag her and her sister.

It was such a fortunate family, so why was it ruined like this so suddenly? Laura Carlton knelt and hugged her daughter.

She felt tears stinging the corners of her eyes, but they and not fall. It was because she had been crying too much for the past few days. She did not blame her husband because she knew her husband had borne a lot. She could only blame those scammers for being too good at lying and scheming.

“Tara, we can’t get over this obstacle. If we’re not around anymore, you have to take good care of your sister. You’re an adult now so you should be responsible for taking care of your sister, okay?” Laura said as she held Tara.

When Tara heard what her mother said, her heart trembled and she said quickly, “Mom, don’t do anything stupid, okay? Please!” Laura continued to speak like she had not heard her daughter’s pleading.

“But you don’t have to worry. Your father and I saved some money for you two at your uncle’s place. Even though it’s not much, it’s enough for you to live your life without worries.”

“Mom, don’t do anything stupid! There must be a way! There must be!” Laura continued, “However, you should move, move to somewhere they can’t find you. Since a lot of these debtors are loan sharks, I’m worried that they’ll threaten the safety of you and your sister.”

“Mom, will this be solved if we give them the money?” Tara suddenly remembered that David was the young master of the Golden Leaf Hotel, so he had to be loaded. As long as he was willing to lend her money, she would be able to solve her family’s crisis. S CIISIS. Then, she would slowly pay him back. If she could not, she would be his mistress or even second wife.

At this moment, even if David was not a handsome young man, even if he was as short and fat and ugly as Hector, she would not hesitate to be with him so long as he could help her solve her family crisis.

Because in her heart, nothing was more important than her family. “You dumb girl, we can solve this problem by paying, but we can’t afford to. We’ve come up with a lot of methods. We sold everything we could and borrowed from everyone, but at the end of the day, it’s still not enough.”

Chapter 37

South River University, More than ten thousand students had gathered on the field in an orderly fashion. The Labor Day talent show was starting soon. Firstly, the chancellor of the university gave a speech. Then, the students started their performance, All kinds of performances ranging from singing, dancing, skits, stand-ups, and magic shows were being presented on stage

However, David was not watching the performance on the stage at this moment. Instead, his teacher called him back to the classroom. Of course, he was not the only one receiving this treatment.

Everyone in the class was called back. Everyone was a little confused. The teacher spoke at this moment.

“There’s an emergency. Since Ava is sick, she can’t go on stage. Who among you knows how to play the piano? Please replace her. You don’t need to be good, you just need to deal with it.”

Everyone turned their gazes to Ava. Indeed, Ava’s originally rosy cheeks were now very pale. After waiting for a while, she continued when no one volunteered, “If
anyone accepts this task, I’ll approve their leaves in the future, no matter what the reason.”.

When the teacher said that, some of them were moved, but playing the piano was something delicate. No one would be able to perform on stage after only learning it for a few days. David was moved too. He wanted to accept this task so it would be easier for him to request leave in the future.

With that, he added some lavish points to add ‘piano skills’ to the skills column. After that, he added 10 lavish points to improve his piano skills from novice to expert.

Soon, David felt an abundance of knowledge rushing into his brain. When David was confident, he stood up and said, “Teacher, let me try!” Every one of the students looked at David with looks of disbelief on their faces, including the other three musketeers, Ava, and the teacher.

“David knows how to play the piano?’ ‘Stop joking. Throughout his university days, whenever there was a break, he’d work part-time or apply for part-time jobs. How would he have the time to learn to play the piano?

“Do you know how?” The teacher asked after hesitating.

“Yes, I learned it when I worked as a part-timer.”

“Can you play a complete song?” The teacher asked again.

“Of course!”

“Alright then. Since no one else is volunteering, you should give it a try. Remember, take it easy and don’t make any mistakes.”

At this moment, Dean stood up and said with a pained look on his face, “Teacher, I don’t feel well either. We should just let David go solo.” He did not want to embarrass himself with David!

He would not believe that a pauper like David would know how to play the piano no matter what. Wouldn’t it be better to get himself out of this early on and sit below the stage to watch David make a fool of himself?

When the students in the class saw Dean pretending to look like he was in pain, they wanted to laugh. Naturally, the teacher saw this too. However, she did not expose Dean.

Instead, she asked David, “David, can you do this alone?”

“Of course!” David replied. He did not want Dean to go on stage with him anyway. It was meaningless to work with a man. However, he felt that it was a bit boring to just play the piano.

So, he spent another 30 lavish points to upgrade his lyric writing, song composition, and singing skills to expert. Now, he was ready. The matter was settled so everyone went back to the field to watch the show.

Meanwhile, David was standing backstage waiting for his turn. Goat City. Tara’s grandmother’s house.

“Mom, Dad, I have a friend who’s the young master of the Golden Leaf Hotel. You should know that hotel, right? It’s an 8-star hotel and it’s also the most high-end and luxurious hotel in the South River Province. That place is worth a lot of money. If he is willing to help us, we’ll be able to make it through this crisis.”

Tara was trying hard to calm her parents down. As long as there was hope, they would not give up. When Ken Smith heard what his daughter said, he finally turned around and looked at Tara and her mother with eyes that no longer looked lifeless. As someone who was from the South River Province and was also a big boss who used to have a net worth of hundreds of millions, of course, he would know about the Golden Leaf Hotel.

He even met a very important client there before. The market value of the hotel was at least 15 billion now. If it was just as his daughter said, this might just help him get through this difficult time. If he could pay back the money owed to the loan sharks and banks and lift the prohibition on his company, he would be able to make a comeback with his ability. If this was possible, why would he want to give up on his happy family?

“Really?” Ken asked with a hoarse voice, This was the first thing he said in two days.

“Really! Really!” When Tara saw that her father was finally talking, she said after wiping her tears. When Laura saw that her husband was finally talking, she let out a sigh of relief as well.

“However, even if he has this ability, why would he help us? You’re only his classmate. We need about 100 million, can you really get him to lend you this money?” Ken asked.

100 million?

When Tara heard this number, she was even more shocked.

Chapter 38

She thought her family only owed a few million, so with David’s super-rich status, he might not care about this figure. However, she did not expect them to owe 100 million. 100 million! Even if David was a super-rich kid, could he take out so much cash in one go?

Perhaps his family could, but he was only a student. His family would not allow him to take out so much money to lend to someone he had only known for a few days.

What should she do?

What should she do?

No, she finally gave some hope to her parents, so she could not let them find out the truth.

“Dad, David will lend the money to me because… because he’s my boyfriend! We’ve been together for half a year. I was worried that you’d say that I was too young so that’s why I didn’t dare to tell you.”

Ken and Laura were taken aback. The last glimmer of doubt in their hearts was also gone. They did not feel strange that their daughter was able to find such an
outstanding boyfriend.

They were very confident in their daughter. However, Ken had another question in his heart. Was this a lie that his daughter made up to comfort him? Probably!

So, Ken said, “Call him now and see if you can borrow the amount from him.” Tara’s heart tightened.

She said, “Dad, I’ll call him tomorrow. You should eat something, I’m hungry too.”

As someone who had been in the business world for many years, Ken noticed the subtle difference in his daughter’s behavior.

‘Just as I suspected,’ Ken sighed. This was just his daughter’s delaying tactics. At that moment, Laura said something.

“Tara, call him! If we can borrow the money, then your father can prepare. If we can’t, then we still need to settle you and your sister. If not, your father and I won’t die peacefully.”

Tara had no choice. She could only take out her phone and call David after looking up his number. Even though she was already feeling hopeless, she still hoped for a
miracle. South River University.

David was backstage waiting for his turn. Suddenly, his phone rang. When he took out his phone to have a look, he saw that it was from Tara. Why was this chick calling him?

Even though he was curious, he still answered the phone.

“Hello, Miss Tara Smith. Can I help you?” On the other end of the phone, when Ken heard David calling his daughter ‘Miss Tara Smith’, his last glimmer of hope faded immediately.

No men would address their girlfriends like that. However, Tara did not care about the trivial details.

“David, are you free now? I want to tell you something.” David looked at the schedule and saw that there were a few groups in front of him. So, he walked to a quieter place.

“What’s going on?”

“David, I want to borrow some money from you!” David was stunned.

‘Borrow some money?

‘Isn’t this chick’s family loaded?

‘Why would she borrow money from me?’ “How much?” David asked.

“100 m-million.”

“How much?” David thought he misheard, so he asked again.

“I want to borrow 100 million!”

“Why do you need to borrow so much money?” David asked.

“David, my family’s business failed, and we owe a lot of money to loan sharks. If we don’t pay up, our family will be doomed. Can you please help me? I’ll definitely pay you back slowly.”

Tara started sobbing into the phone. Loan sharks? That was something that would ruin her life. The image of Tara rejecting Mr. Gomez’s hints of sleeping with him
appeared in David’s brain.

If he refused now, after a while, this chick might become those people’s plaything for the sake of money. Alright, he would just think of this as saving a young lady who had taken the wrong step in life.

“Is 100 million enough?” David asked.

Chapter 39

‘Is 100 million enough?’ This was the most touching sentence Tara had ever heard in her life because this sentence was about to pull up her family that was about to
fall into the abyss.

Ken and Laura widened their eyes and looked at each other. Their faces were filled with shock. Their daughter’s boyfriend was a little incomprehensible. 100 million to him was nothing. This was 100 million. Their family could not even take out 100 million even when they were at their most prosperous stage.

However, could he just take it out casually? Someone like this was their daughter’s boyfriend? They were so happy for their daughter. Plus, if he would take out 100 million to help their daughter, then it would mean he liked her a lot.

“It’s enough! It’s enough! Thank you, David!” she wanted to cry right now. She had been very tense since the afternoon, and right now, she could finally relax. She wanted to vent so badly right now.

“Give me your account number. I’ll transfer it to you later.” David’s voice sounded from the phone.

“Oka, thank you so much, David!” After Tara hung up the phone, she sent her account details to David. Then, she noticed her parents staring at her.

“Mom, Dad, what’s wrong?”

“Tara, is David really your boyfriend?”

“Yeah! If not, he wouldn’t casually lend me 100 million even if he’s loaded, right?”

“Right. When are you bringing him home? We want to thank him properly.’

“Whenever he’s free. He’s very busy!”.

“When he’s free, you have to bring him home so that we can meet him.”

“Alright! Fine! Mom, go make dinner. I’m hungry.” At this moment, a robotic tone rang from Tara’s phone.

“Your account ending with XXXX has received a fund transfer of 100 million dollars.”

The three of them were stunned. At the same time, they breathed out sighs of relief. Even though David promised he would lend them the money, the weight on their chest would still be there before the money was actually in their account. Now that they got the money, their family’s crisis was also resolved.

Laura went to make dinner happily. Ken also walked out of the room he had stayed in for the past two days. After he drank some milk, he went to take a shower. Meanwhile, Tara sat on the sofa in the living room and thought about what happened that day.

She could not imagine what would have happened to her family if she did not get David’s help. Her parents might take the blame for all of this and then leave this
world.

Then, she and her sister would move somewhere without family and live lonely lives. David saved her parents and he also saved her and her sister. In addition to that, he saved this family that was about to be destroyed too.

So, she had made up her mind. From this day on, she would only belong to David. As long as David needed her, she would show up. When David did not need her, she would disappear. She decided to be by David’s side regardless of if she was his mistress or maid, she also did not mind even if she had to work extremely hard
for him. South River University.

David was still waiting for his turn. He would be next. If he knew what Tara was thinking right now, he would surely be confused. He only lent her 100 million, so why would she give her life to him? At this moment, the emcee’s loud voice could be heard.

“Since the next performer Ava Snowden is sick, we’ll be having David Lidell playing the piano for us next.”

After the emcee finished talking, there was a commotion among the audience. “Damn, why is it, David?”

“Where is my goddess? How can they replace her?”

“Hey, David. Can you show us how you vomited blood that day? I want to learn from you because my girlfriend is going to break up with me soon.”

“Hahaha! Yeah, let him show us how he vomited blood.”

“Hahaha!” The scene was a little chaotic. After David got onto the stage, he heard the laughter of the students below the stage, He did not care. He walked to the piano and grabbed the microphone.

Then, he said, “Teachers, students, good evening, My name is David Lidell. Tonight, I’ll be performing a song I wrote, named ‘Boy’.I hope you’ll like this.” He sat in front of the piano and placed his hands on the keys. After recomposing himself, the tutorial on how to play the piano appeared in his brain. It was as if he had practiced this countless times.

His fingers danced on the keys. The music coming from the piano floated into everyone’s ears.

“Damn, not bad! He looks like he’s a professional.”

“David even knows how to play the piano? He’s been hiding this so well!”

Chapter 40

Then, David’s voice entered everyone’s ears.

“Back in the time when I didn’t know what hesitation was, “I fell in love with her accidentally. “I thought I understood her,.

“So that was why I loved her so carefreely.

“A pair of hands that held on tightly, “Not letting go of the obsession in our hearts and the future.

“I can’t forget your love.

“But the ending is very hard to change.

“I couldn’t make you stay.

“And I’m not like him, “I can’t give you a future you long for.

“A childish boy, oh…” The first verse ended.

The venue with more than ten thousand people was silent. Soon, the second verse came.

“I bring your care with me everywhere.

“And I’ll only open it at a place with no one else around.

“I want to ask if you’re still sad now.

“Like the sea under the sunlight, “Like the color I painted with my heart, “I’ll make you smile and give you courage.

“I can’t forget you.”

The song ended. However, the venue was still silent. Were they shocked?

Of course. No one expected David to sing such a sad song. The lyrics, the music, the performance, and the piano had penetrated deep into everyone’s hearts. The ones who shared similar experiences had tears in their eyes.

Sarah was leaning against her best friend Sophie, her face drenched with tears. David’s song was about their past. The you and I’ in the song were David and her. Sophie looked at her best friend in her arms and sighed in her heart. He was such an exceptional and loyal man, but she dumped him for a scumbag.

She was destined to not deserve him. Ava sat below the stage, staring at David on the stage blankly. This man had been her classmate for three years and it seemed that she did not know him at all.

His lyrics writing, singing, and even song composition were top quality. The most important thing was that he had experienced this himself, so that was how he wrote such touching lyrics. An exceptional man was like a firefly at night. He would always be eye-catching.

Ava wondered if David was triggered after the breakup, which caused him to show his secret side. How many secrets did he have? Ava was getting curious. Meanwhile, Amelia was feeling a little down.

She was not surprised that David.was so exceptional. What a joke, would big shots like this not have any culture? However, didn’t David say he wanted to keep a low profile? Was this keeping a low profile?

Great, she would have a lot of competitors now. Amelia did not care about the others, however, she felt threatened by Ava, who was in the same class as David. No, she had to quickly take David down before everyone knew of David’s real situation. If not, she would miss out on such a good man.”

The music teachers in the university were now looking at David like they were looking at a valuable treasure. They had not discovered this student with so much musical talent. It was unknown who clapped first. Then, one after another, more than ten thousand people started clapping thunderously in an instant.

David stood up and bowed to the audience before leaving the stage. Tonight, he was destined to be the most eye-catching man.
