Having offended his new boss during their very first eting, Jared Prince was already feeling uneasy.
Looking at Richard Sterling, the man responsible for this entire ss, he wished he could personally throw him out of the building.
"Richard Sterling, get out!"
Jared’s face darkened.
"And while you’re at it, pass a ssage to your uncle. Horsa Advertising’s lease expires at the end of this month. Tell him to pack up and move out of San Fierro Building."
Richard’s face instantly turned white.
It felt as though the sky had collapsed on top of him.
"N-No! Manager Jared! Mr. Hale! Please give another chance!"
His previous arrogance had vanished completely.
He stumbled forward desperately.
"Please don’t kick us out! We can talk about this!"
Seeing the pleading look on Richard’s face, Jared beca even more irritated. If this fool hadn’t run his mouth earlier, none of this would have happened.
Noticing the cold expression on Luca’s face, Jared imdiately made up his mind.
"Security!"
Several guards hurried over.
"What are you standing around for?" Jared barked. "Drag him outside. He’s making President Hale uncomfortable."
Before Richard could continue begging, the security guards grabbed him by the arms and hauled him toward the exit.
"No! President Hale! Mr. Hale!"
"Please listen to !"
"I was wrong!"
His desperate cries echoed through the lobby until they gradually disappeared outside.
Only then did Jared quietly breathe a sigh of relief.
At least his own position seed safe for now.
Luca casually sipped his tea.
"If Horsa’s boss cos looking for you later, handle it yourself."
"Understood, President Hale."
Jared imdiately nodded.
Luca’s gaze turned colder.
"Also, investigate every company in this building that has business dealings with Horsa."
"If they want to continue working with them, they can leave too."
Jared’s heart jumped.
"Understood."
Afterward, Luca attended a company-wide managent eting in the building’s conference room.
To everyone’s surprise, his first decision was simple.
A twenty percent salary increase for all employees.
The announcent was t with thunderous applause.
In an instant, Luca’s reputation among the staff skyrocketed.
Of course, Luca had no interest in becoming so hardworking executive.
Managent, reports, etings, paperwork...
Those headaches could stay with Jared and the others.
As for him?
He preferred enjoying life.
So for the next several days, Luca practically disappeared into the presidential suite at San Fierro Grand Hotel, spending his days eating well, sleeping well, and enjoying the luxury lifestyle.
Still, after nearly a week, he began to feel that sothing was missing.
No matter how luxurious a hotel was, it never truly felt like ho.
Standing beside the floor-to-ceiling windows one morning, Luca looked out over the city and muttered,
"Ti to buy a house."
"And while I’m at it, a car too."
Once the thought appeared, he acted imdiately.
Pulling out his phone, he called Naomi Monroe.
anwhile, Naomi had been in an unusually good mood these past few days.
Ever since eting Luca Hale, it felt as though her luck had finally begun to change.
Her livestream traffic was steadily growing.
She was receiving more followers every day.
Even her gift inco had improved significantly.
Yet despite all that, she occasionally found herself feeling strangely empty.
For so reason, she kept thinking about Luca.
So when she saw his na appear on her phone screen, her eyes instantly lit up.
After ending the call, she hurriedly got dressed, applied so light makeup, and rushed out to their eting spot.
The mont she arrived, she spotted Luca sitting at an outdoor café.
"Hee hee."
Naomi sneaked up behind him and lightly patted his shoulder.
"Luca Hale!"
Today she was wearing a light beige floral dress.
The skirt swayed gently around her knees, revealing her slender calves.
Combined with her carefully done makeup and naturally beautiful features, she looked absolutely stunning.
For a brief mont, Luca was genuinely caught off guard.
A flash of admiration appeared in his eyes.
Although it only lasted a second, Naomi noticed.
And imdiately beca even happier.
Luca stood up with a smile.
"You haven’t eaten breakfast yet, right?"
He pointed at the extra al on the table.
"I ordered so for you."
"Thank you."
Naomi sat down obediently and took a sip of milk.
Then she looked up curiously.
"So, what kind of car are you planning to buy?"
Naomi knew very little about cars.
But she knew one thing.
Soone as rich as Luca definitely wasn’t buying an ordinary vehicle.
"A G-Class."
The mont the words left his mouth, Naomi’s eyes widened.
"Hey!"
She quickly glanced around nervously.
"Don’t say things like that in public!"
Luca blinked.
"...What?"
Naomi leaned closer and lowered her voice.
"You’re not allowed to swear in public anymore. It’s not classy."
Luca stared at her.
For several seconds.
Then he finally realized what she thought he had said.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
"Woman..."
"Your thought process is seriously broken."
Soon afterward, they arrived at the rcedes-Benz dealership.
The mont they stepped through the doors, several employees looked over.
Then they froze.
The pair standing together looked ridiculously attractive.
Tall and handso.
Beautiful and elegant.
They looked like a couple straight out of a movie.
The store manager recovered first and hurried over.
"Welco to rcedes-Benz."
He smiled professionally.
"Do you have any models in mind, sir?"
"A G-Cla—"
Before Luca could finish speaking, a sharp pinch landed on his waist.
"Ouch!"
Naomi glared at him.
"I told you to watch your language!"
The manager was briefly confused before understanding.
His expression imdiately beca strange.
Trying hard not to laugh, he said,
"Very well, sir."
"Two G-Class AMG models arrived just today."
"Please follow ."
Only then did Naomi finally realize that G-Class was actually a vehicle model.
Her face instantly turned red.
Especially when she noticed Luca trying not to laugh.
"You jerk!"
Naomi gritted her teeth.
Luca laughed openly this ti.
"Who told you to react so adorably?"
Without thinking, he reached over and ruffled her hair.
Her silky hair slipped through his fingers, carrying a faint floral fragrance.
Naomi froze.
She had not expected such an intimate gesture.
But strangely...
She wasn’t angry at all.
In fact, she found herself thinking:
’His hand feels nice...’
’If he touched my face, wouldn’t that feel even better?’
The thought startled her so badly that she almost jumped.
Quickly lowering her head, she stole a glance at Luca, who was discussing specifications with the manager.
Thankfully, he hadn’t noticed anything.
Only then did she secretly let out a breath of relief.
Soon, they arrived at the showroom.
Only two G-Class AMGs sat under the bright lights.
One khaki.
One black.
Both looked imposing, luxurious, and incredibly powerful.
"Mr. Hale, these are the newest arrivals."
The manager smiled.
"What do you think?"
Luca circled the black one once before nodding.
"Not bad."
Then he asked the most important question.
"Can I drive it away today?"
"Absolutely."
The manager’s smile widened.
"We can handle the registration process for you as well."
"Perfect."
Luca didn’t hesitate.
"I’ll take the black one."
The manager’s eyes nearly lit up.
This was the easiest sale of his career.
"I’ll prepare the contract imdiately!"
[Ding!]
[Host spent 300,000 Dollars.]
[7x cashback triggered.]
[Cashback reward: 2,100,000 Dollars.]
Another two million dollars entered his account.
Luca couldn’t help feeling satisfied.
This was his first ti owning a luxury vehicle worth several million.
Anyone would be excited.
Still, years of driving experience kept him calm on the surface.
Naomi, however, was a completely different story.
The mont she sat in the passenger seat, she began touching every button she could find.
Her eyes sparkled with excitent.
"So happy?"
Luca asked while starting the engine.
"Of course."
Naomi puffed out her cheeks.
"Not everyone is as rich as you."
"I’ve never even ridden in a car worth millions before."
Luca chuckled.
"Then I’ll make you even happier in a little while."
The mont those words left his mouth, Naomi froze.
Her heartbeat instantly accelerated.
She slowly lowered her head and nervously twisted the corner of her dress between her fingers.
Her imagination imdiately began running wild.
’Even happier?’
’He can’t possibly an...’
The tips of her ears slowly turned red.
