    Chapter 5 Online Money Transaction


    Joshua went to the gate of themunity, stopped a taxi, and went straight to Maple Properties.


    Tomorrow, he would officially be the CEO of Maple Properties. He nned toe in advance today to


    familiarize himself.


    Joshua turned on his phone and sent Alfred a line message, saying that he was on his way to Maple


    Properties.


    Alfred replied that he would arrange for someone to pick Joshua up.


    Meanwhile, Joshua received a notification from Line. It was from a group chat formed by his high


    school ssmates.


    It was sent by Quinn Lowell, the monitor back in high school.


    “Everyone, heads-up! i’d like to invite everyone to a gathering tonight. The dinner will be at Golden


    Gate Hotel. My treat. Tell me now if you can show up tonight! Our ss teacher, Mr. Ruskin, will also be


    there!”


    A bunch of people replied,


    “Golden Gate Hotel is the best hotel in New York. A meal there costs a lot!”


    “Quinn, you’re so badass! I’ll be there!”


    “Count me in!”


    Quinn looked at the messages and couldn’t help but feel smug. He took a photo of his office and sent it


    to the group.


    He then texted, “Well, I’m usually busy with work. It’s so boring staying in the office every day. I want to


    spend more time with everyone to rx. I miss you guys!”


    It was obvious that he was putting on airs, but some people still replied and buttered


    him up.


    “What avish desk! I’m envious!”


    “I heard that Quinn works as a personnel manager in a bigpany with an annual sry of around 80


    thousand dors!”


    Their teacher, Frank Ruskin, also joined the conversation. He said, “Ouinn is young and capable


    Everyone, you should learn from him!”


    Quinn pretended to be modest. “Thank you, Mr. Ruskin! In the future, everyone, if you have any


    difficulties,e to me. As ssmates, we should help each other!”


    People continued to tter Quinn up.


    Suddenly, someone in the group asked, “Why has Joshua kept silent? Isn’t he in the


    group?”


    “Joshua? The pauper who couldn’t afford the tuition fees? He used to eat rotten apples thrown by


    others when he was at school!”


    “He ate rotten apples back then, and after he graduated, he became someone’s live-in son-inw who


    has lived off others!”


    “He is just a cheap pushover!”


    “A few days ago, I heard that he borrowed money everywhere and said that his sister had a car


    ident and was hospitalized. Everyone, be on your guard. Don’t be fooled!”


    “Even if I have money, I won’t lend him any!”


    Joshua saw their text messages.


    But Joshua did not care.


    After all, he did not have much interaction with them back in school.


    So, why should he care about theirments?


    Not many in the group knew he was in the group anyway.


    He might as well withdraw from a crappy group like this.


    Suddenly, Quinn said, “We were such a good ss. However, our ss was ruined because of him, the


    loser! I felt so ashamed! Back then, he stole other people’s money and did a bunch of despicable


    things! So, he deserves to live a poor life now! It’s karma! Guys, you should take warning from his


    mishap!”


    Joshua frowned.


    Others could say whatever they wanted about him, but not Quinn!


    Because Quinn and Joshua had a beer!


    Back then, they were in high school.


    Because of Joshua’s poor family background, his ssmates looked down on him and alienated him.


    Only his desk mate, Leah Reed, was close to him.


    Leal was beautiful, and many boys in school had feelings for her. Quinn was one of them.


    Leah rejected all of them and hinted at Joshua that she had a crush on him.


    Joshua felt the same for her as well, but because he was too poor, he thought that she was out of his


    league, and he had to bury his feelings.


    Quinn regarded Joshua as his love rival.


    In a PE ss, Quinn saw that there was no one in the ss, so he stole money from Leah’s purse and


    put it on Joshua’s desk.


    After the ss, Leah found that her money was lost and finally found it on Joshua’s desk under Quinn’s


    “help”.


    Joshua failed to defend himself.


    He was seen as a thief!


    The matter caused an uproar.


    It was recorded in Joshua’s academic record, and all of his schrships and subsidies for poor


    students were down the drain.


    Leah gradually grew apart from Joshua because of this.


    The teachers thought that Joshua was a bad student with improper behavior, so they targeted him and


    picked on him. They kicked him out of the ssroom, preventing him from joining the ss. Joshua’s


    performance went into a nose dive.


    Later, some girls’ underwear was stolen from their dorms, and Joshua was the first to be suspected.


    He was called a pervert and was forced to apologize in front of all the teachers and


    students!


    All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    He was utterly humiliated.


    However, Joshua knew that he was there to study.


    Therefore, he endured all the grievances and unfairness,


    Countless people pointed their fingers at Joshua.


    When Joshua recalled the past, those things that happened were still vivid in his mind. Even today, he


    still couldn’t let it slide!


    “Well, since you provoke me actively, don’t me me!”


    Joshua knew that one of the functions the group chat had was to transfer money to others online.


    Therefore, he transferred 3 thousand dors in total to the group, and among the sixty people in the


    group, the first twenty people who clicked the link could share the money, and the amount was


    random.


    Meanwhile, when they clicked the link, their phones would automatically send a line of words, “Quinn is


    a dumbass!”


    Joshua clicked on “OK” and transferred the money to the group.


    The participants in the group saw the link, and they clicked on it at once without reading the words


    carefully.


    “Quinn is a dumbass!”


    “Quinn is a dumbass!”


    “Quinn is a dumbass!”


    The same words flooded everyone’s screen.


    Quinn was also one of them.


    “Ouinn is a dumbass!”


    Quinn got a penny!


    Then Quinn saw the words. His eyes immediately widened. Quinn realized that someone was messing


    with him!


    He quickly withdrew the text message his phone sent automatically and mentioned Joshua in the


    group. He said, “Who are you?”


    Those who received the money were stunned at the amount.


    There were 3 thousand dors in total, and twenty of them shared the money.


    The luckiest one among them got more than 800 dors!


    Quinn received the least amount of money and a curse.


    Though receiving money felt good, Quinn was the ss monitor after all. The others didn’t dare to


    offend him, so, they withdrew the text messages their phones sent automatically at once.


    However, there was someone who didn’t react so quickly. Therefore, there were still around eight lines


    of “Quinn is a dumbass!” on everyone’s screen.


    The atmosphere in the group was very delicate, and everyone could tell that someone was creating a


    disturbance.


    But no one knew who transferred the money.


    Just then, Joshua made another transaction. And the words this time were, “I’m Quinn’s father!”


    The words immediately flooded people’s screens.


    “I’m Quinn’s father!”


    “I’m Quinn’s father!”


    “I’m Quinn’s father!”


    Quinn was furious and continued to mention Joshua, “Who the fuck are you? You are risking your


    neck!”


    Joshua ignored him and made the third transaction. And the words this time were, “Quinn is a


    cuckold!”


    The others realized what was going on. Some big shot in the group was deliberately targeting Quinn!


    Anyway, they were just onlookers, and no one would argue with money.


    Even their teacher, Frank, became a part of this!


    The words continued to flood everyone’s screen.


    “Quinn is a cuckold!”


    “Quinn is a cuckold!”


    “Quinn is a cuckold!”


    And Joshua made the fourth transaction.


    “Quinn, bite me if you can!”


    “Quinn, bite me if you can!”


    Joshua didn’t stop. He made transactions again and again.


    Since Joshua transferred the money quickly and repeatedly, no one cared about withdrawing their


    message any more. They just wanted to share the money.


    They were going mad!


    The words insulting Quinn were vulgar.


    What was funny was that Quinn was also one of them. In other words, he cursed himself again and


    again!


    What was even more infuriating was that the amount of money he received every time was always the


    smallest.


    Joshua was about to make the eleventh transaction.


    Yet he received a notification, telling him that he had been removed from the group


    chat.


    Joshua had to stop


    He knew Quinn kicked him out.


    The retaliation cost Joshua 30 thousand dors, but he did not care.


    On the contrary, he found it interesting.


    “Only the rich know what it feels to be happy…”


    Joshua sighed.


    Meanwhile, the taxi had stopped, and he arrived at the office building of Maple Properties.


    Joshua looked at the grand office building of Maple Properties.


    He had mixed feelings.


    He and Maple Properties had a long history.


    As thergest real estatepany in New York, Maple Properties had a lot of engineering teams.


    Reagan’s engineering team was one of them.


    Back then, Joshua was owed wages in arrears. He once came to Maple Properties, asking for an


    exnation. However, he was kicked out by the security guards.


    And now, Joshua became the CEO of Maple Properties.


    What went around came around.


    “Stop right there! Who are you?”


    Suddenly, the security captain appeared with two of his men and shouted.


    When he got closer and saw Joshua, he looked at Joshua with disdain. “You again! If you want your


    money, get lost! Don’t stand here and be an eyesore.”


    Joshua smiled bitterly, “I’m not here for my paycheck!”


    The security captain sized Joshua up with a suspicious expression. “Then why are you here? Are you


    looking for a job?”


    Just as he finished speaking, an abrupt hoarse male voice rang out, “Who is looking for a job?”


    The security captain turned his head and quickly saluted. “Mr. Lowell, hello! It’s him!” He is looking for a


    job!”


    Quinn was smartly dressed in an expensive ck suit.


    However, he pulled a long face.


    Because he wanted to show off in front of his high school ssmates in the group chat, however,


    someone humiliated him harshly.
