Urban Plundering: I Corrupted The System!

Chapter 79 Jobless Billionaire's Halo 2

The Lamborghini purred along the dimly lit streets, the city blurring past like a quiet afterthought. Ava Klein's fingers flexed on the wheel, her mind looping in overdrive while Parker sat there like a statue—head back, eyes closed, calm as hell.

How does someone stay that calm after dropping four billion dollars?

She stole another glance at him. The dude wasn't just rich—he was dangerous rich. Like, "I could buy the whole block and still tip your grandma six figures" rich. And he was seventeen.

Seventeen.

And here she was, his legal rep, locked into this whirlwind after barely knowing him for, what, a few hours? If you'd told her this morning she'd be handling the real estate portfolio of a kid who made some of New York's elite look like college interns, she would've laughed in your face.

But now?

He'd just tipped people millions. Millions. And for what? Doing their damn jobs.

Her stomach tightened. Not in a bad way—but in that "I might be standing too close to something massive" kind of way. The power play was obvious—Keep people close. Lock them in servitude loyalty. Hell, she couldn't even be mad—it was smart.

Still...something felt off.

Parker was too calm. Too...detached. Most billionaires she'd dealt with at least pretended to enjoy the flex. The champagne. The ego trips. But this kid? His face hadn't flinched since the second he hit "send" on those wire transfers.

He was either a complete sociopath...or playing a game on a level she hadn't even cracked yet.

And that was annoying.

Because Ava liked having people figured out. Especially clients.

'Keep it professional,' she reminded herself. 'You're here for the job, not his mental breakdown.'

Still, the whole "mysterious young billionaire" vibe was eating at her. The car slowed as they approached the hotel.

Late. Too late to drive back home.@@@@

But before she could speak, Parker's voice cut through the silence—smooth, controlled, but heavier now.

"Let's meet for dinner later." His eyes stayed half-lidded, but sharp. Focused. "We've got more to go over, and I want everything wrapped up tonight. I'm heading back to L.A. after this."

Ava blinked. 'Damn. Straight to the point.'

She gave a slow nod. "Fine. Dinner. But you're not gonna disappear on me, right? We still need signatures on those last documents for Dubai."

Ere's tail flicked.

After some coaxing with treats he definitely didn't need to bribe her with, Parker hit the shower. Hot water. Steam. The kind of rinse that felt like it was scrubbing the stress off his bones. When he stepped out, he tossed on a fitted black Korean-inspired jacket, the kind with sleek buttons and subtle embroidery along the collar. Minimalist but sharp.

Fresh, clean, ready.

When he re-entered the suite's living room, Ere was sprawled out like she owned the damn place, but the second he sat, she climbed onto his lap like she was claiming him too. He ran his fingers through her fur, absently petting while his phone buzzed.

[Ding!

Congratulations, Host!

Billionaire Milestone Achieved!

Milestone Rewards: 100 Spins, Lamborghini Revuelto, and a Beverly Hills mansion!

Parker froze mid-pet.

"Wait, what?!"

Okay, the car? Cool flex. The mansion? Eh. He could practically cough up a few hundred million for another one if he wanted.

But those spins?

Those spins were priceless.

He couldn't buy those. They gave rewards his money couldn't touch.

And the next notification just sweetened the deal—

[Ding! Host can now connect all personal accounts (Bank, PayPal, Phone) to the System Infinity Card!

Parker smirked. He had seen this before after buying the estates. So that was why he could tip the team earlier straight from his phone instead of needing a physical card. This setup would save him some serious hassle in the future.

But the real kicker—

[Host has acquired a Halo: "Anonymous Billionaire" (Upgradable)]
