Chapter 2

Jerome stepped forward, grabbed Carlisle’s shoulder, and kneed him in the abdomen. The intense pain instantly made Carlisle bend his body like a shrimp.

Immediately after, Jerome elbowed Carlisle hard in the back. Carlisle instantly fell to the ground, and blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth.

Jerome was not satisfied as he kicked Carlisle a few more times.

“Bro, I’m afraid you’ve forgotten that I have a blue belt in Taekwondo. How dare you f*cking hit me?” Jerome squatted down and mocked.

Carlisle looked up with difficulty and happened to meet Wendy’s cold stare. It was more of disgust and impatience as if she was complaining that he had spoiled their party.

Meeting Carlisle’s gaze, Wendy seemed to have thought of something. She took off the platinum ring on her finger and threw it in front of Carlisle like it was trash.

“Oh right, and this ring you gave me. Take it and get lost together. This cheap piece of junk is not worthy of me!”

That ring was like the last straw that broke the camel’s back. Carlisle was now in complete despair.

He had scrimped and saved for half a year for this ring. Now, it has become a piece of junk in Wendy’s eyes.

Jerome then went forward and threw Carlisle out of the room.

Enduring the pain, Carlisle got up and returned to the dormitory in a daze. He fell onto the bed and fainted.

That night, he had a dream. In the dream, he won the lottery. He grabbed the money and smashed it into Wendy and Jerome’s faces, making them kneel on the ground and beg for his forgiveness…

It was not until noon the next day that Carlisle woke up and looked at the ceiling of the dormitory. Everything that happened last night surfaced in his mind, and Carlisle felt as if a knife was being twisted in his heart. Two years of sacrifice, not only money and time but also feelings, were just jokes in the eyes of others!

“F*ck, this is too ridiculous! Someone actually won two billion dollars from the lottery shop by the school entrance! That person went for a hundred bet too! There must be an inside story!”

“That’s right. The most ridiculous thing is a series of consecutive numbers. It’s definitely something fishy!”

At this moment, he heard the conversation between Henry and Simon. Carlisle sat up immediately. “What did you say? What two billion and consecutive numbers?”

“A ticket at the lottery shop at the entrance of our school won a huge prize of two billion dollars. The numbers are actually 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 07. Don’t you think it’s crazy?” Henry said speechlessly.

“What’s the number again?” Carlisle suddenly raised his voice.

“12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 07. Why?”

“Holy sh*t!” Carlisle jumped off the bed and rushed out the door. He only said, “Help me apply for leave in the afternoon. I’ve got something on!”

“What’s wrong with Carlisle today? Why is he so shocked?” Henry’s face was filled with surprise, but he did not think too much about it.

Carlisle ran to the small garden below the dormitory building and looked around like a thief. When he saw that no one was around, he carefully took out a crumpled lottery ticket from his pocket.

Carlisle had bought the lottery ticket yesterday morning. The numbers were the numbers Henry had mentioned. As they were consecutive numbers, Carlisle remembered them especially clearly. At that time, he had even been scammed by the owner of the lottery shop into raising it to a hundred bet!

Carlisle turned on his phone with a dry tongue and searched for the latest winning number. His hands could not help but tremble. Two billion! If it was really this number, he would be in a dreamland!

The winning numbers appeared on the screen. Carlisle was fully focused as he carefully checked them one by one.

“12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 07!”

“It’s exactly the same! It’s exactly the same! I won! I really f*cking won! Two billion!” Carlisle’s entire body began to tremble. He tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, but his body did not listen to him at all. His brain was short of oxygen because of his rapid breathing.

Carlisle could not help but roar like a wild beast. It took him a while to calm down.

Looking at the lottery ticket in his hand, it was as if he was looking at a peerless beauty with a hot figure. No matter how he looked at it, he liked it!

It was said that when God closed a door for you, he would open a window for you. It was true! And it was a f*cking panoramic sunroof!

Wendy, I don’t think you’ll expect this. You just broke up with me, and now I’ve won two billion dollars! A vain woman betrayed me for tens of millions. Now I have two billion, but all of this has nothing to do with you!

And Jerome, you’re so smug even though your family only has tens of millions. Now, your entire family’s assets combined are not even five percent of mine!

At this moment, Carlisle’s thoughts ran wild. He suddenly felt blessed that he had seen Wendy’s true colors in time. Otherwise, when he got the two billion, he would have to spend it on that gold digger!

However, the most important thing now was to get the money first. Carlisle could not achieve anything until the money was firmly in his hands. Otherwise, it would all be a fantasy.

Carlisle decided to redeem the award now to prevent any accidents from happening. After checking online how to receive the prize, Carlisle put on a mask and set off.

Walking into the Lottery Center in Lille City, Carlisle tried his best to remain calm, but his voice could not stop trembling. “Hello, I’m… here to redeem the prize.”

“What prize? Did you bring your lottery ticket and identification card?” The staff member asked as usual.

“First… prize.” Carlisle took out the lottery ticket and identification card and handed them to the staff.

“First prize? You’re quite lucky. What? First prize?” The staff immediately got up from his seat and quickly took the lottery ticket from Carlisle’s hand to check the winning numbers.

As Carlisle waited nervously, the staff finished checking the number and confirmed that there was no mistake!

The first prize plus a hundred bet, for a total of two billion!

An hour later, under the envious gazes of the Lottery Center’s director and many staff members, Carlisle left the Lottery Center with a claim slip and a tax receipt.

He still had to take this claim slip to settle the claiming procedures at the bank before the prize money would be transferred to his account and truly belong to him.

However, 20% of the prize money would go to tax. He would only get 1.6 billion dollars, but this was enough to make Carlisle excited. 1.6 billion was more than enough to spend in his entire life.

Carlisle hailed another cab and rushed to Citibank.

After arriving at the bank, Carlisle walked straight to the VIP reception room as instructed by the director of the lottery center.

Carlisle was clearly about to receive a huge sum of two billion, but he could not help but be afraid. He was afraid that all of this was fake, just like the dream he had. When he woke up, there would be nothing.

Carlisle pinched his arm and forced himself to calm down using the pain. He took a deep breath and prepared to push the door open to welcome a brand new life!
