Instant Millionaire novel Chapter 54

Quincy was speechless upon seeing Vicky; how is it possible that he ran into her anywhere? Even when Quincy wanted to change to another seat with Jane, he found that all the other seats were already taken. There was no alternative but to sit here.

Jane gently grabbed Quincy's arm; she was still a little afraid of Vicky in her heart, and Quincy comforted Jane softly.

Seeing these two people so close, Vicky felt even more uncomfortable in her heart. She subconsciously thought that, even if she dumped Quincy, he should still hold her dear in his heart and not forthrightly treat other women nicely before her very eyes.

"How did you two sneak in here? Is this an event you can attend?" Vicky said aggressively.

"This con artist can steal 2 million from Ms Kadence; it must be a piece of cake for them to sneak in," Vincent next to her said sarcastically, "Maybe he’s going to find another target here. So, Quincy, which rich folks do you have your eyes set on now?"

Quincy didn't want to pay heed to these two NIMRODs and didn't even look at them, he continued to talk to Jane in a low voice.

"Oh, these two must have snuck in; I will tell the organizer now, so that they can drive throw these two out!" Vicky was about to stand up as she spoke, but Vincent stopped her. After all, the two of them also got in through connections, so it would be bad if they exposed themselves.

Others at the same table heard Vicky chatter about Quincy and Jane, and out of curiously, some asked what all the fuss was about.

"You must be joking, what ties could I possibly have with these scum; after all, if a dog bit us, we can't bite back, could we?" Vicky explained to others triumphantly, "I just can't understand their behavior. They stole 2 million from our school. That money was meant to fund internships for the students. Don’t you think these two people have no heart?"

When the others heard this, they all began to point fingers at Quincy and Jane.

"Vicky, watch your mouth, you can eat whatever you want but don’t speak nonsense." Quincy was irked. If Vicky continued to talk nonsense, how could he eat his meal in peace?

"Oh, so it’s okay for you to steal 2 million from the school, and I’m not allowed to criticize you? How could you be so full of yourself? Don't steal if you have the ability." Seeing that she has finally angered Quincy, Vicky felt good with herself, “I’m going to keep talking; you shamelessly stole 2 million and spent money on this slut, you’re shameless, scum; oh, that’s right, I mean you, what's the matter? Are you going to hit me? Do you even have the guts? "

Vicky arrogantly inched her face towards Quincy; she assumed that Quincy was not willing to hit her at all!

"You..." Quincy was about to slap her face fiercely, but was stopped by Jane, "Forget it, just ignore her!"

Quincy nodded and suppressed the anger in his heart.

"No guts? What a worthless scum!" Vicky withdrew back triumphantly, "If I were you, I would think hard about how to pay back the 2 million. With such a huge debt, it’s a wonder you have the guts to even be here. This shameless couple are hopeless."

Vicky rolled her eyes maliciously, and heavily nudged Quincy's heart with her elbow. The heart is the most important part of the body, so how could anyone withstand to take a hit like this?

Quincy immediately became angry, and slapped Vicky so hard that she fell to the ground. Vincent rushed over to help Vicky up, and Jane held back Quincy, in case he did anything more to Vicky.

Just as Vicky was about to hit Quincy, Stanley's voice rang out from the stereo, "Thank you all for coming; I informed everyone in such short timing, yet everyone is here..."

As Stanley spoke, Vicky could only hold herself back, or it would be disrespectful to Stanley.

Stanley said a few polite words, and everyone present said they were fine. They knew Stanley's position in China’s eastern areas, and it was their honor to be here.

"Mr. Stanley, isn't this banquet held especially for a noble young man? Everyone wants to see that man, where is he?" A boss deliberately asked after he heard Stanley's speech come to an end with no mention of the young man. How could they not want to meet the young man whom Stanley held in such high regards?

"Yeah, that’s right."

"At least introduce the young lad."

"We all want to meet the young man."

...

On stage, Stanley cast his gaze to Quincy; his gaze was gentle yet tested Quincy’s willingness.

Quincy just looked back at him calmly.

"I will convey everyone’s eagerness to meet him. The young man is currently busy with other business. He stopped by the banquet hall just now, and after seeing so many people, he was content and left..." Stanley said with a smile.

After Stanley finished speaking, the audience voiced their disappointment.

“Loser!” Vincent managed to pull away Vicky. Even though she swore at Quincy, she was still feeling uncomfortable. If it was not for Quincy, maybe she might have been able to meet this mysterious young noble. Quincy was just bad luck.

"Well, to make up for everyone's disappointment, let's play a game together. Everyone present may win a prize," Stanley said loudly.

With that said, Stanley explained the rules to the audience.

Everyone present has a number assigned to their seats. A large monitor will call numbers on screen later, and whoever owned the number will win the prize.

With Stanley's fame and status, the prizes would naturally be quite generous. The last prize was an Apple XS, and the second to last prize was a jade bracelet worth 18,888 yuan, but the grand prize was an incredible diamond necklace worth 880,000 yuan.

Stanley especially asked for a model to display the necklace. The entire piece was crystal clear, shimmered under the lighting, and it was breathtakingly beautiful. The eyes of everyone in the audience, especially the women, shone bright as well.

Although she knew that the probability of winning was extremely small, Vicky still held a trace of hope in her heart that she could win the diamond necklace.

After 15 minutes, all the prizes had a winner, except for the diamond necklace.

One-third of the audience had won prizes, and Vicky won a jade bracelet, which she felt was a pity. Although this bracelet was good, it was worthless compared to the diamond necklace.

But when she saw Quincy and Jane, neither of which even had the lowest prize, she felt content. Playing with the jade bracelet on her arm, she "unintentionally" said aloud, "This bracelet is so beautiful. Don't envy me, but with your shitty luck, huh, it’s a joke for you to win any prize."

Jane looked at Quincy, Quincy smiled and comforted, "It's okay, that bracelet is for old ladies."

"You..." Vicky choked at Quincy’s reply. She looked at the bracelet, felt that it really did look like it was meant for older women, and took it off.

At this time, the drawing for the grand prize had begun, and the numbers on the screen scrolled rapidly.

The first number was a "7", which meant table number seven, which was Quincy's table.

All the guests at the table became excited, especially Vicky. If she won this diamond necklace, she would be happy for 3 days and nights. This was worth 880,000. Vicky's bank account didn’t even had this much money.

And if she won two prizes, when she goes on stage to give a speech, Vicky would hint that she would also bring good luck to her future husband and help him make huge earnings.

As Vicky was daydreaming, the second number came out.

The second number was "1", and at the same time, the third number began to scroll.

There were 12 people at each table, and the second number was "1", which meant that the winner would be among the three people with seat numbers "10", "11", and "12".

Quincy was "10".

Vincent was "11".

Vicky was "12".

Vicky's heart pounded in excitement. She felt that the sparkling necklace was calling out to her. At this moment, everyone's eyes were on the three of them.

"It's me, it's me, it's me..." Vicky kept muttering in her heart, as if she wanted to control the numbers with her mind.

But on the surface she pretended to look relaxed, since everyone was looking at her.

The final number began to slow down, and Vicky's hands were twisted together.

Getting slower.

"2"! It's Vicky.

Vicky stood up excitedly; Vincent also stood up, and the two hugged each other. After the hug, Vicky was about to say a few words to the others.

At this moment, her gaze unknowingly glanced over to the big screen again, and the number kept scrolling slowly.

"Boom", "2" was gone, and "0" appeared.

Vicky's heart hit rock bottom. Obviously it should have been her, how could it have changed.

"Keep rolling, keep rolling..." Vicky screamed inside, if the number jumped to "1", then Vincent would win the prize. If he won the diamond necklace, he would definitely give it to her.

However, the numbers on the screen did not move anymore. It was clearly showing "710", which was Quincy's seat number.

Vicky's heart turned icy cold now that Quincy won the prize. She slowly looked at Quincy, with an intense look of resentment in her eyes, and secretly wanted to shoot an arrow and kill him.

Vincent pulled Vicky and sat down, it was all too embarrassing.

At this time, Quincy became the focus of the audience.

"Ah, this gentleman is really lucky, please come on stage to accept the award now," Stanley smiled happily and said to Quincy.

Other guests shot envious stares at Quincy.

Quincy guessed that this must be Stanley’s doing. At this time, he can only smile in his heart. He won the prize, so that’s that. It just so happened that he hasn’t given Jane any presents yet, so this diamond necklace would make a pretty good gift.

"Come on, let's go on stage," Quincy took Jane's hand and walked to the stage. The others clapped.

Vicky's eyes were full of rage; she should be the one to take the stage. She was almost certain this scumbag duo pulled strings to change the numbers and stole her diamond necklace.

"Hello, congratulations, that’s quite some luck you have." Stanley shook Quincy's hand with a pleasant smile. If one looked closer, his eyes seemed to hint a secret message.

As he spoke, Stanley was ready to present the diamond necklace to Quincy.

"Mr. Thomson, you haven't introduced us to this handsome fellow yet," a lively woman in the audience said loudly, and the others followed suit.

"Uh..." Stanley was a little embarrassed now. The young master had asked to keep a low profile. He glanced at Quincy, who was leisurely looking back at him, as if awaiting for his reaction. Stanley’s mind raced quickly and he said to the audience, "This is Herman Lee, a young and promising lad, with quite a bit of luck today..."

Fortunately, Stanley recalled that the young master had said this name at the door. When he saw Quincy's expression was content, he felt his heart calm down.

Stanley was about to hand over the diamond necklace to Quincy.

"Herman Lee? You really know how to pretend!" At this time, a voice full of spite shouted out, and everyone turned towards the voice. It was Vicky. Vicky stood up with a sneer and stared at Quincy, "Don't believe him, he’s not Herman Lee at all! His real name is Quincy, a good-for-nothing scumbag from JM University, and he stole 2 million from the school..."
