The Billionaire's Retribution

"Money can't buy happiness, they said. But it sure can tear a marriage apart," "Love comes first but money speaks louder than all…..”Starling City pulsed with the evening rush; a hubbub of honking cars and bustling activity as the workday drew to a close. Amidst the swarming throng, Marcus navigated the pedestrian path. His camera draped around his neck, and a slung bag at his side, a recent contract dangled like an unwanted weight on his shoulders.Supposedly a cause for excitement, the contract instead cast a shadow over him. The job offered clashed starkly with his principles, it goes against his morals and upbringing.Tasked with filming in the adult film industry, Marcus grappled with an internal conflict. Though every fiber urged him to decline the offer, the brutal truth of financial need propelled him forward.A freelance cameraman, he toiled incessantly to support himself and, most significantly, his cherished wife. She is from a rich family but yet decided to marry a poor

Marcus was still shocked seeing the huge amount of money in his account, it was unbelievable, he raced to the kitchen, on the tap then poured water on his face to make sure he wasn't dreaming, he then rebooted the phone to make sure it wasn't malfunctioning. He was going crazy.But to his greatest surprise, the money was still there.Marcus tried to call the number, but then discovered that it was a private number, he then scrolled through his contact to check if he might think of someone who would have done that. What a joke, he was a very broke man, which billionaire would want to have his number, his contact lists weren't even up to twenty. Many questions ran through his mind, this must be a mistake, they might have gotten the wrong number. He tried contacting the customer care but they weren't helping either.He checked his phone every two minutes to see if the sender would call or text, but nothing came, and time was running late, Marcus eventually fell asleep on his couch.The

As the bouncer threw him out of the restaurant, they rounded him up, there were four of them. Marcus tries to stand up to his feet, but then received a boot in his abdomen, he groan in pain, but they were just getting started, the bouncers continued their beating, descending punches and kicks all over his body. After teaching him a valuable lesson, they left him on the ground, he was badly injured, his clothes were torn like rags, he was bleeding from his nose and mouth.They were security men outside, but since Maxwell was a very influential man no one dares to interfere, Marcus carried himself up, his legs were too weak to carry his body, and then he staggered on his steps.Suddenly Marcus noticed that there were many onlookers who witnessed the scenario, and instead of them to assist him, they laughed and make mockery of him."Look how dirty he is""Why would anyone tries to go up against a billionaire like Maxwell, upon all people""Maybe he has no idea who Maxwell is""He was lu

"Yes sure you can, it's yours you can do whatever you want with it" Richard said.Richard then signaled Sam, as he went out then shortly he returned with a machine, kind of a smaller version of an ATM machine. He then placed it at the table."You can test it now Marcus, you can withdraw any amount you can think of" Richard said."No that wouldn't be needed, it's just for verification so I'll just check the balance"Richard noded, Marcus picked up the card, immediately his hands sensor touched it the golden symbol beamed green, Marcus was shocked as he had never seen anything like it before, however Sam and Richard just smiled, he was really the one.Marcus slotted the card into the machine and requested for a balance enquiry, he didn't need to input a password as it just automatically fulfilled the request.Marcus almost threw the machine away seeing the account balance it showed, he couldn't even count the so many zeros, it was far more than any billion or trillion. The wealth of the

The hall later became quiet as everyone was anticipating on Marcus to give a speech."Ladies and Gentlemen, esteemed members of this remarkable conglomerate, I stand before you tonight not merely as a newcomer, but as a bearer of legacy and evolution. " Hearing the voice Maxwell was certain it was the Marcus he knew, but he still wasn't so sure, he can't help himself but doubt it, it seems impossible, no it can be him."As the newly revealed heir to this distinguished empire, I am both honored and humbled by the weight of responsibility that accompanies this legacy." He continued."The tapestry of this business, woven by the collective toil and vision of those who came before me, stands as a testament to the pinnacle of excellence we have achieved. Tonight, I stand at the threshold of a new era, one characterized by the fusion of tradition and innovation, a chapter I am ardently committed to scribing with each of you. Let us, collectively, inscribe a tale that transcends the bounds of
