Wow! Another cash reward today? And I even got another car. The system is really spoiling me.

Liam had thought that after the massive sign-in rewards of yesterday, today's reward would be reduced or something along the line but he was wrong.

Not only did it not reduce, it actually seen to have become more valuable. A cash reward of $1 million and a luxury car. This was one of the best daily sign-in rewards so far.

Liam picked up his phone and saw that the money had already been deposited. His account balance now sat comfortably above $8 million.

He smiled when he saw his balance. It has been increasing nearly everyday, going from less than $20 to millions in just a week. But the only problem is that he has no idea what to spend the money on... yet.

Let's not think about that. Even though I have no idea now, something will definitely pop up in the near future.

The next moment, he heard a buzzer from the gate intercom system. He stood up from the sofa and walked to the small touchscreen panel beside the front door.

Displayed on the screen was the familiar restaurant-branded car from last night.

Liam opened the front door and walked down the driveway to the gate, to receive the package personally.

When he got to the gate, he saw the same delivery personnel from waiting with a polite and respectful smile on his face.

When he saw Liam, he gave a short, respectful bow and gave him the package, and got back into the car.

Liam collected the package and thanked the man. As the man raised his head and walked back to his car, though it was only for a brief moment, but he could see the shock, curiosity and disbelief in his eyes.

He naturally understood why the man was having such emotions, as he has been getting reactions like that since yesterday.

I wonder when it will stop? He smiled to himself as he walked back to the mansion.

Inside, he sat down at the dining and enjoyed the delicious meal he had ordered.

"Even more delicious than yesterday, the chef is really good," he moaned in pleasure, as he relished the delicious taste of the food.

As he ate, Liam realised that he would need to employ some workers—maids to help with cleaning the house. They might not do the cooking as he can take care of that, but cleaning such a big house is something he can't do by himself.

But how do I find one? Should I check online? Would probably find one but I don't want just anybody, I need someone trustworthy. It would be best if it's someone recommended by someone I know.

Well that's the problem. Liam doesn't know anone like that. He doesn't even have a y friend. He thought about it and he suddenly remembered Stacy. He also remembered that he promised to take her out for a treat to repay her kindness. There's also her friends too, which he would love to get closer to.

With that thought, he decided to text Stacy and invite her, and her friends to come over to his place.

He texted her and he got a reply immediately.

Stacy: "Hi. Good morning."

Liam: "Good morning. Are you busy? I want to invite you guys over to my place."

Without being told, he could already guess that Lana had told her and others where he's staying now, so there was no need to tell her that he has moved.

After he sent the message, it took a while for Stacy to respond.

"You mean your new place? Bellemere Mansion?" She asked.

"Yes. I want you and everyone to come," Liam replied.

"Ummm... Sure. Sure. Just tell me when and we will be there."

"Today. 4 PM."

"Ok. Thanks. I will inform the others. We will definitely be there. Thank you again for inviting us ☺️☺️"

Liam smiled at her message and dropped his phone back on the dining table, and continued eating his meal.

After he was done eating, he thought of what to do but nothing specific really came to mind. He checked the time and he saw that he it was nearly noon and he decided to just relax and enjoy himself by watching movies in the private home theatre.

As he walked to the theatre, he thought of working out and testing out his strength but he decided against it. He doesn't feel the need to.

Yes, he has been growing stronger lately but since he has surpassed 20 points in all attributes, and still within the range of what other humans can achieve, there was really no need for him to stress himself.

Besides, he had done manual jobs for years, working as construction worker and doing other physically taxing works, before getting the job at the restaurant where he was fired.

Inside the theatre, Liam took his seat on a recliner and picked up the control tablet. He controlled the lighting, dimming it, controlled the curtains, turned on the AC, toggled the TV screen and selected a movie.

The movie started and he controlled the sound system, lowering and increasing the volume to the level he wanted.

He relaxed more comfortably into the recliner and smiled, focusing his attention on the movie playing.

Yeah, this is the life!

After the chat with Liam, Stacy immediately texted the group chat and telling them about his invitation.

The group's activity went up immediately and they all wanted to confirm from Stacy if what she said was true. When she confirmed it, they all went quiet for a while before their messages started flooding back in.

They were still talking about Lana's experience when she went to deliver the clothes to his place, and now he's inviting them? They actually couldn't believe it.

They have no idea why Liam was inviting them. Does he actually want to be friends with them or does heneed something from them?

Either way, they were very curious to find out. At least, they know that they don't have to worry about anything bad happening to them as they didn't treat Liam bad that night. In fact, they welcomed him as one of their own, even though he was completely new. And so, their mind was at peace.

But they were feeling very excited to finally grace the popular Bellemere Mansion and possibly become friends with Liam. Though they don't expect the latter to happen immediately, but they are willing to show that they will be valuable to him.
