Making 9
At around nine o’clock the following night, Gilmore sat on the sofa of the hotel room, held the lottery ticket in his hand, and watched the live lottery program intently.
On the TV, the host was announcing the winning numbers, “The first winning numbers for the Powerball lottery No. 20200 are 15, 25, 17, 19, 03 and the last winning numbers. are 02, 08!”
Gilmore compared the seven numbers on his lottery tickets with that on TV before confirming that they were exactly the same!
The prize and number of bets were also announced on TV.
Gilmore calculated the prize for his bet and 12X Play before getting the final amount of 28 million dollars.
He could still get about 20 million dollars after tax.
This was definitely a windfall for Gilmore.
The lottery ticket only cost him a few dollars.
The great wealth came from his supernatural power to foresee the future.
His supernatural power made it easy for Gilmore to acquire wealth.
After turning off the TV, Gilmore lay down on the sofa and felt totally relaxed.
He was immersed in great joy.
He felt like he was on cloud nine.
Who could blame him for that? As he was born in a small town and a poor family, winning 20 million dollars overnight would come as a shock.
He did well enough not to go crazy.
It was a sleepless night.
With 20 million dollars in his pocket, Gilmore decided to take his parents and sister to Oakhaven and give them better lives.
With 20 million dollars in his pocket, Gilmore could enter the business world, establish himself, and build a business empire…

With 20 million dollars in his pocket, Gilmore would not be despised by scheming bitches like Tiffany ever again.
In other words, poverty was no longer the only option in his life. Many options were now available to him.
Gilmore was full of ambition and expectations.
In his mind, he was most grateful to that old man who gave him the elixir.
Without the elixir, he could neither have supernatural powers nor hit the jackpot. It was a shame that he didn’t know where the old man had gone or know his name. Gilmore had made up his mind to repay the old man when he met him again.
Gilmore thought a lot and finally fell asleep in the late hours.
The next day, Gilmore woke up at nine o’clock in the morning and checked out.
After an exciting night, he calmed down.
He had breakfast at a stall and passed by a toy store. After a moment of consideration, he went in and bought a panda mask.
He bought it because it was a common practice for the winners to claim their prizes on TV with a mask on.
Wearing a mask would ensure their safety and protect their privacy.
Gilmore hailed a taxi and went straight to the Lottery Commission in Oakhaven.
On this day, Gilmore claimed the over–20–million–dollar prize in a panda mask and appeared on television in millions of households in Oakhaven. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
The lucky dog in a panda mask that had won 20 million dollars naturally became the subject of people’s discussions.
“Who is this person in a panda mask?”
“How will he spend the 20–million–dollar prize?”
“With such a big prize in his pocket, does he need to work again? He would surely quit his job since the money is enough to sustain the rest of his life!”
It went on and on.
Gilmore went through the redemption process of the Lottery Commission, and the prize weist into his deposit. On the road, he heard many people talking about him.
He couldn’t help smiling
In the past, when Gilmore watched others claim prices in masks on TV, he had talked about them just like this
Unexpectedly, he had become the subject of others‘ discussions
He found such a change of roles quite interesting
He stuck his hand into his pocket and felt his wallet. In the wallet, there was a bank card with a deposit of 20 million dollars
In other words, Gilmore was now an invisible millionaire.
With 20 million dollars in his pocket. Gilmore first thought of buying a house and moving his parents to Oakhaven from the countryside. He would also take his younger sister to the big city and let her study in a better high school.
Family mattered the most in Gilmore’s mind
Now that he was rich, he naturally wanted his family to have better lives.
Before buying a house, he had to know about properties.
A person suddenly came to Gilmore’s mind. It was his best friend. Luke Mann.
His buddy and deskmate was a local frosh Oakhaven. His family business was worth tens of millions of dollars. Luke could be considered to be from a rich family
So. Luke knew quite a lot about the newly developed properties in Oakhaven.
Gilmore took out his phone and called his buddy. Luke.
The line was soon connected, and the anxious voice of Luke came over. “Gilmore, you finally called me. I was about to call you.”
Gilmore asked wonderingly, “What is it?”
Two days ago, you kissed Christine after school. That’s sensational. As your buddy, I am worried about your safety. Luke said angrily.
Gilmore listened and realized that the words about how he had kissed Christine had spread among the students of Oakhaven University.

But he was not worried. Instead, he told his friend. “We’ll talk about it later. Right now, I want to buy a house. Since you know much about the good properties in Oakhaven, come along and take a look around.
“Buying a house… Gilmore, is this a joke? The housing prices in Oakhaven start at 2.5 thousand dollars per square meter. Did you hit a jackpot?” Luke said sullenly.
Gilmore laughed with embarrassment, “I have indeed hit the jackpot.
Luke fell silent.
A few seconds later, Luke asked hurriedly, “Gilmore, you really hit a jackpot? How much did you win?”
“Not much, just tens of millions of dollars.” Gilmore didn’t tell the truth lest his friend would be too shocked that he had won 20 million dollars.
“Ten… tens of millions? Holy cow, you call it not much?” Obviously, Luke was still shocked to hear the understated amount of Gilmore’s prize.
“Gilmore, send me your location. I’m coming right away.”
“Okay, I’ll send it via WhatsApp.”
Gilmore hung up the phone and shared his location with Luke on WhatsApp.
About ten minutes later, a savage white Land Rover stopped abruptly in front of Gilmore with a screech.
The car door opened, and out came a young man with short hair. Wearing sunglasses, he looked stout in a white shirt, a pair of brown shorts, and a pair of brand sneakers of a, limited edition
This fatty was kind of stylish.
At the sight of Gilmore, the fatty came up, pounded Gilmore’s shoulder with his fist, and smiled brightly, “That was awesome, bro. In a matter of days, you have become a millionaire. I’m so painting the town red with you!”
That was right. This fatty was none other than Gilmore’s buddy, Luke.
