Chapter 1342 Vigilant Precautions
Those with knowledge were aware that this was unprecedented in Gerby. Even the smallest prizes were valuable, let alone the unique prize bracelet.Some couldn't help but exclaim, "Mr. Atlas is really wealthy, the prizes are so generous!""Well, of course, he's the richest man in the world!""Could it be true?""It should be! Otherwise, why would there be certificates?!"The discussions below continued. For fairness, the lottery guests were all randomly selected from the audience.At the moment of the draw, all eyes were on the hand pressing the button, knowing it held the key to luck. Many wished that hand were theirs.As soon as the guest pressed the button, the numbers on the big screen instantly jumped and spun, with voices below shouting, "Stop!"The guest pressed the button again with force, and ten sets of numbers appeared on the screen.Immediately, there were screams of winners, disappointed sighs, and figures rushing eagerly towards the stage.I felt the intensity of
Chapter 1343 A Minor Incident
Just as we got to the scene, a minor incident happened before we could even take the stage.The person chosen to draw the first prize was an old lady selected from the audience. She was escorted onto the stage to operate the lottery machine, and we were all waiting for the number to come out to award the prize to the winner.However, at that moment, a young man in black quietly approached our vicinity. Just as he was about to reach me and Atlas, he was quickly restrained by Cane, who had been guarding us.He struggled and shouted, "The lady on stage is my grandmother! I'm here to help her off the stage. What are you doing?"This outcry immediately drew the attention of the media reporters. Several journalists quickly surrounded us for interviews and footage.The young man loudly protested and told the reporters that he was innocent. This caused resentment among the onlookers, making the situation somewhat out of hand.Atlas stayed back, shielding me from harm. The young man conti
Chapter 1344 The Fortunate Sanitation Worker
Not only was everyone in the audience puzzled, but even Atlas and I exchanged glances. I whispered, "What's going on?"The host loudly announced the winning number again, "Please check the number card in your hands. Number 59, please come up on stage to claim your prize! Congratulations, you've become today's luckiest person! You've won the special prize from Sautoir Fine Jewelry!"But even after the host's words, there was no response.People were perplexed, looking around and trying to find the individual in question on and off the stage.I speculated that this person must have arrived very early. In a plaza with tens of thousands of people, it was evident that whoever got number 59 had come very early. Since they came early, how could no one come forward?The host repeated the announcement several times, but no one answered.Someone anxiously shouted from the audience, "Who is this? Did they forfeit the prize? Or did the organizers deliberately deceive us?""Yeah, they said t
Chapter 1345 Divergent Opinions
"Please go ahead." Atlas spoke exceptionally gently."Um... can we have something more practical? Even though this bracelet is nice and expensive, we really can't wear it. Can we exchange it for money?" As soon as she said this, it immediately provoked a chorus of "shushing" from the audience. Everyone began to criticize her."What are you saying? How embarrassing! You're bringing shame to the people of Gerby!""Yeah, what kind of behavior is this? You win a prize, just take it and leave! To ask for money on top of that? Have you never seen money before?""... How ungrateful you are!""Yeah! Too greedy!"The voices below became louder and louder, and the woman who won the prize looked even paler, trembling at the corners of her mouth. She timidly pulled the robust woman, "Let's... let's forget it!"Atlas immediately waved his hand to silence the audience below.Then he looked gently at the two sanitation workers. "Please explain your reasons."The fat woman stepped forward bol
Chapter 1346 The Unexpected First Prize
Atlas immediately looked at Pauline with a scholarly demeanor and asked, "When did the rescue happen?"Pauline glanced weakly at the woman, and the bold, robust woman immediately stepped forward and spoke on her behalf. "Her husband's name is Coleman Darrell."The emcee promptly extended the microphone to the woman, and her voice echoed through the microphone."He used to be a technician at Keller's Dairy. He rescued a little boy five years ago while traveling home from work. A car nearly hit the boy while he was crossing the street. Her husband selflessly rushed forward, pulled the child back, and pushed him out of harm's way, but he was hit and run over by the car.""Oh... that really did happen!""It was controversial at the time. I can't remember the man’s name, but he was a technician at Keller's Dairy."People started whispering to each other."This incident was reported in the newspapers five years ago. Everyone in Gerby knows about it. When her husband saved the child an
Chapter 1347 Unexpected Joy
Atlas continued, "In addition, Mr. Coleman Darrell, Ms. Pauline's husband, will also receive support from ATL Empire for his valiant deed. ATL Empire will award an additional 80 grand in cash for Mr. Coleman Darell’s medical expenses and will make the hospital and treatment arrangements for Mr. Coleman. Those expenses will also be covered by ATL Empire."After he finished speaking, he immediately turned to get Dylan to handle it.There was an immediate uproar in the audience, and cheers erupted!After everyone quieted down, they chattered in a mixture of envy and excitement, unable to contain their cheers and shouts. They couldn't believe what was happening.A sanitation worker had won an incredibly large prize.The woman on stage stared at Atlas in shock, as if she couldn't understand what Atlas was saying.She stepped forward again and thanked Atlas profusely on behalf of Pauline. "Thank you so much, Boss! You're such a good person! Pauline, your family is saved... Hurry up and
Chapter 1348 Utterly Uncultured
Our classmates were still very excited and were all talking and drinking in the lobby.Everyone knew about my and Ivanna's pregnancies and told us to rest. Ivanna and I didn't hesitate and returned to the bedroom on the plane.Lying on the bed, Ivanna told me, "Poppy is shameless. Didn't she say she came to Gerby to have some fun? Why didn't she join the festivities tonight? Why is she following us back instead?"I snorted coldly. "If Atlas hadn’t been there today, I wouldn't have realized the fall was fake. I might have been in serious danger.""You should have done something about her!" Ivanna turned over and looked at me, disdainfully saying, "I've seen many people like her. I know all about her schemes.""It's not up to me," I complained."At least her schemes aren’t as bad as Harmony Hampton’s were back then. She needs to work harder," Ivanna admitted."She can't stir up any big waves. I know what to do. If she gets cocky, I'll take care of her." I said disdainfully. "I can
Chapter 1349 Not Even Human
Arnold pushed the bedroom door open, peeked his head inside, and impatiently exclaimed, "Hey! I was wondering where you went! Why are you here? Don't you jeopardize my sister's pregnancy! Should you be here? Are you blind?"Poppy had a way out. She immediately smiled obsequiously at both of us and said, "Sorry!"With that, she pretended to stay calm and quickly left.Arnold didn't mince his words. "Why are you running around everywhere?"Then he closed the bedroom door gently, and Ivanna snorted coldly. "I can’t believe her!"I stared at the furious Ivanna and couldn't help but giggle. "You’re way too blunt!""Blunt? Let me tell you, Chloe, if you give her an inch, she'll take a mile!" Ivanna lay back down and said fiercely, "If I don't deal with her, I'll regret it!""I admire your straightforwardness." I shook my head and lay down, too.But I couldn’t fall asleep. I checked the clock and saw that we probably weren’t far from Foswood.Poppy had completely ruined this nap.I
