Semua Bab Sir, She's One Million Dollars: Bab 1 - Bab 6

September 2007, New York Richard Underhill sat in his office with his focus on the stock market. It looked good, and much of his investment grew slowly and steadily each day. But Richard had learned to have ice in his stomach over the years since it was easy to sell when the market dropped in fear of losing money, but very often, it would be temporary, and it would rise and pay out later on.

"Thank you, sir," The man said and took the money. The movers left the apartment, and Richard began unboxing his stuff.
