Novel Bin Chapter 3 300 Million Dollars? Are You Crazy?
Although this woman was Hodai's wife, she was blessed with great beauty by the gods. So unlike Hodai who was not that important, she was a female lead in the novel.
Hikaru didn't know the number of heroines that were in the novel "Apocalypse: I own the Panara Box" but he knew that any female who was beautiful and a virgin, was a female lead.
According to the heroine's law, Ryrlia was still 'clean'. Although she was the step-wife of Hikaru's father, Hodai, Hodai had never touched her.
In fact, Hodai's love history was extremely complicated. While Hikaru's mother was pregnant with him, Hodai was having an affair with another woman.
That woman was also pregnant with a son at the same time as Hikaru's mother. After Hikaru's mother died when he was 5 years old, Hodai immediately brought his mistress and the stepson home.
At that time, Hikaru was dissatisfied with Hodai, so he didn't care about Hodai's business and inheritance.
In contrast, Hodai's own son was a genius, it didn't matter if it came to academics or work-related stuff his son was outstanding in everything.
If they compared the two, Hodai's own son was similar to a priceless diamond, while Hikaru was like a useless stone.
Therefore, Hodai was extremely dissatisfied and angry with Hikaru. Hodai just wanted his own son to inherit his property and companies while Hikaru took nothing.
However, Amanda Ryrlia was different. Hodai really loved her because she was very intelligent and beautiful, but because Hodai's body had weakened after years of indulging in alcohol, tobacco and women he couldn't do anything to her.
Besides, Ryrlia of course wouldn't let Hodai touch her, she was the female lead after all, if she was not clean, a lot of male readers would scold the author.
Although Hodai had never touched Ryrlia, he trusted her immensely. The evidence was that Hodai gave Ryrlia the power to direct and use half of his entire assets including the companies owned by him.
To Hodai, his own son was a diamond, and Ryrlia was a gift from God.
What about Hikaru? Hodai didn't care about him.
At this moment, Hikaru shifted his gaze from Ryrlia to the young man sitting next to Hodai.
That young man was the same age as Hikaru, with black hair and black eyes typical of Asians. The young man was about 180cm tall, he possessed a handsome face similar to that of a movie superstar.
That person was Hodai's own son, he was also the main character of the book "Apocalypse: I own the Panara Box '', his name was Tadashi.
While Hikaru was looking at Tadashi, Amanda Ryrlia suddenly frowned in Hikaru's direction, however, no one noticed this as everybody was looking at Hikaru.
"BAM!"
Hodai suddenly slammed his hand on the table, he shouted: "Hikaru, where's your suit? Why are you dressed like that?"
Everyone who was sitting here was wearing suits, Even Ryrlia was wearing business clothes, Hikaru was the odd person among them as he was dressed very comfortably. He wore a pair of jeans, a t-shirt, and a sports jacket over it.
Everyone thought that Hikaru would apologize fearfully to Hodai as usual.
However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Hikaru was extremely calm, his eyes glaring fearlessly at Hodai: "Is there a rule that requires me to wear a suit? This is my own home, I have the right to wear whatever I like."
The people sitting there were immediately disgruntled, their gazes on Hikaru filled with distaste. They were all wearing suits, but Hikaru wasn't wearing one, it was like Hikaru was looking down on them.
"You..." Hodai was about to say something rash, but Tadashi hurriedly stopped him.
"Father… don't be angry. He is right, after all, this is a private home, everyone sitting here is close to each other, we don't need to pay too much attention to these things."
Upon Hearing Tadashi's words, everyone nodded, they felt satisfied. The way they looked at Tadashi was completely different from the way they looked at Hikaru.
Hikaru also didn't care how they looked at him, in his mind he was only thinking about the contents of this meeting.
According to the memories provided by the system, this meeting was mainly to choose the heir to Hodai's fortune. Of course, that person could only inherit half of his property, as the remaining half would be owned by Ryrlia.
In this meeting, Hodai wanted Tadashi to be the heir, Hikaru who was a useless person wouldn't get a dime from Him. At that time, Hikaru was angry, and that was the beginning of the conflict between Hikaru and Tadashi. Hikaru believed that since Tadashi was a stepchild, Tadashi was unworthy of inheriting Hodai's property.
Of course, Hikaru was just a villain, how could he change the situation? Thanks to the MC's aura, Tadashi easily received the right to inherit the property.
Because of that, Hikaru could only angrily leave the mansion with the $100,000 that Hodai gave him as a way to live well for a short time.
After recalling the contents of the story, Hikaru sighed. He didn't care how Hodai treated him, he wasn't Hodai's son anyway.
What he cared about was why the author wrote the beginning of an apocalyptic novel like it was the sharing of inheritance in a CEO series.
At this moment, Hodai suddenly shouted, interrupting Hikaru's thoughts: "Sit down!"
Hikaru shrugged his shoulders and said: "No need, I know the content of today's meeting, you want to announce who is inheriting your property, right?"
"Hm?" Hodai was a bit surprised, he didn't think that Hikaru knew the contents of the meeting in advance. It must be known that the contents of today's meeting had not been told to anyone except Ryrlia.
However, he also did not think that Ryrlia would tell Hikaru the contents of today's meeting.
Hikaru continued, "I will give up the inheritance if you fulfill my three conditions."
Tadashi who was sitting next to Hodai was a bit surprised when he heard that, his eyes showed contempt, in his heart he thought: "Give up? Good! Then I don't need to work so hard to compete with you."
Hodai stared at Hikaru and said, "So… what's your condition?"
Hikaru smiled, after he saw that the fish had taken the bait. "Firstly, I want $300 million in cash," he said.
Hodai frowned and shouted: "300 million dollars? Are you crazy? Do you know how much $300 million is?"
"Hikaru, a useless person like you, cannot earn a million dollars if you worked till you died, let alone 300 million dollars."
The other people who were there were not silent either, they also showed their stance towards Hikaru.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm "I think 10 million dollars is the last line."
"Yes, he is just a useless guy who only knows how to waste his money in the bar with his stupid friends, he does not create any surplus for the company, but he dares to ask for 300 million dollars."
"Haizzz, if I were him I would definitely kill myself, living like this is too humiliating."
"That's right. He opened his mouth and asked for 300 million dollars. Does he think money grows on trees?"
"What a fool, no matter what he says, he is foolish. Luckily, he renounced the inheritance."
"Tadashi is a hundred times better than him, in 5 years he will help our corporation make more than 3 billion dollars."
"Yes, Tadashi is the most suitable person to inherit the fortune."Updated from n0v𝒆lbIn.(c)o/m
When Tadashi heard the people sitting here disparaging Hikaru and praising him, he felt arrogant. It must be known that the people in this place were all major shareholders of the corporation, and having their support was like having the whole corporation in your hands.
Hikaru said calmly, "I know you want to let Tadashi inherit the property, but think about it, if you do that, by how much would the stock price drop? I think… you don't want that to happen, do you?"
Hodai frowned upon hearing that. Although Hodai had decided to let Tadashi inherit his estate, when he announced this, it would certainly cause a lot of trouble.
After all, Hikaru was also his legal son, and Tadashi was just a stepchild. If he let Tadashi inherit all the remaining assets, there would be many bad rumors about him.
Those rumors would probably fade away over time, but it would affect the company's reputation and stock price.
At this time, Tadashi stood up and said, "Father, Hikaru is right. He is your son after all, although 300 million dollars is not a small number, I guarantee you that I can make it back in 6 months."
Hearing that, Hodai nodded, his anger was also greatly reduced. Now, the more he looked at Tadashi, the happier he felt to have such a son.
Tadashi looked at Hikaru and said, "300 million dollars, I'll give it to you. Later I'll tell the clerk to transfer the money to your account. You don't want to drive a car full of money around the city either, right?"
Hikaru nodded: "Okay, but I want to receive the money first, then I will sign the decision to give up the inheritance later."
"Of course. I just hope you will keep your promise." Tadashi said contemptuously.
"I'll sit here and wait. Do you think a useless person like me can escape from a mansion that is guarded by 30 bodyguards?"
When Tadashi heard that he took out his cell phone and called his secretary.
Of course, Hikaru didn't just call 300 million dollars by accident. In fact, in the novel, when the end of the world had just begun, everyone started buying food.
The main character at that time took 300 million dollars in cash from the company's safe to buy food reserves.
Of course, Hikaru could ask for more, like $1 billion.
But he knew that if he asked for that much, he would receive only stocks or real estate. It took a long time to sell those things and convert them to cash.
There were Only 7 days left until the end of the world, he didn't have much time left. Therefore, he thought that the main character would easily give him that money so that he would give up his inheritance.
Of course, Hikaru was right, and Tadashi accepted his request.
