I grew up in a poor family. My foster mother worked tirelessly as a maid to support me. In order to climb out of poverty, I studied hard and got into a prestigious university. But not long after, my foster mother fell seriously ill and quickly racked up two hundred thousand dollars in medical expenses. I tried to borrow money, but instead, I only received humiliation and abuse. I hated my life. Why was I so incompetent? When I was at my most desperate point, I suddenly received a text message from the bank. "Mr. Larson, you've received $1,000,000,000 in your account." I was dumbfounded. A billion dollars? It had to be a scam! But then suddenly, a strange man called me. "Mathews, do you want to know how your biological mother died? Spend a billion dollars within the month, and I'll tell you everything!"
"Mathews, when are you going to pay the bill? Your mother already owes the hospital over a hundred thousand dollars for her treatment!" Brent Kelly, the young doctor, asked impatiently, pointing at Mathews Larson's nose.
"You may be Debby's fiancé, but this is a hospital, not a welfare house!
If you don't pay the bill by today, then I will take your mother off the life support and kick her out of the hospital!"
Like a sharp knife, the doctor's words wounded Mathews' heart.
Mathews trembled with anger, clenching his fists, but he forced a smile and said, "Dr. Kelly, you know I'm really struggling here. Can't you give me some more time?"
A scornful smile traced over Brent's lips as he replied, "Give you more time? Do I look like some shopkeeper from the market whom you can bargain with?"
Brent was well aware that Mathews came from a poverty stricken family.
And that was what gave him the courage to bully poor Mathews so brutally.
In fact, Brent used to be Debby Coleman, neighbor of Mathews' fiancee.
And he had always had a secret crush on Debby, who was not only gorgeous, but also came from a strong family background. That was one of the reasons Brent wanted to pursue her.
However, before he had been able to make his move, Debby had already gotten engaged to Mathews.
"A loser like you doesn't deserve Debby at all."
Brent sneered, giving Mathews an ultimatum.
"I don't care whether you borrow, rob, or sell your organs to get the money. You must pay the hospital bill today!"
After saying that, Brent left.
Mathews stood there, livid, and gritting his teeth.
Brent had been enjoying making things difficult for Mathews ever since his adoptive got hospitalized.
And Mathews had no idea how or when he had offended Brent.
Staring at his adoptive mother, Rosa Astley, lying on the bed with tubes all over her body, Mathews swallowed his anger.
After all, if she had not risked her life to save him and raise him all those years, then he would have died a long time ago.
Mathews was grateful to her and wanted to pay her back for everything that she had done for him.
He took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, Debby, I... I want to borrow some money from you... That is, about one hundred thousand dollars."
Debby was shopping with her mother, Patty Coleman, when Mathews called.
"Is it for your mother's medical fees? I..."
Before Debby could finish her words, Patty snatched her phone away and shouted, "One hundred thousand dollars? How dare you ask for that much, Mathews?
Our family has supported you and your invalid mother for more than 20 years now. Is this how you repay us?
You are a loser, a leech, who only knows to drain our family's fortune!
As for your mother, her life isn't even worth that much money!"
While she was talking, the luxury store's shop assistant bowed to her and said, holding a delicate box in her hand, "Here is your bag, Mrs. Coleman. I have packed everything for you."
Patty looked at her and nodded casually before she took out her credit card and handed it to her.
"120, 000 dollars, right? How cheap! Here, take this card!"
Patty wanted to continue insulting Mathews, but Debby could not stand it at all, so she grabbed the phone back.
"Don't worry, Mathews. I'll figure out a way to solve the problem."
Mathews had mixed feelings as he heard the busy tone on the other end.
In Patty's eyes...
His mother's life wasn't even worth 100, 000 dollars!
However, she found a stupid bag worth 120, 000 bucks to be cheap?
The very thought made his heart explode with anger.
All of a sudden, he got a message from the Hlas Bank. "Greetings, Mr. Larson! 1, 000, 000, 000 dollars has been deposited into your bank account with the last three digits 107."

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.

Now, if you want to date me, you have to wait in line." The next day, Rena received a credit alert of billions and a diamond ring. Waylen appeared again, got down on one knee, and uttered, "May I cut in line, Rena? I still want you."
