Chapter 88 - My Mother is Rich, But I'm Poor on Aether. Therefore, I'm Raiding a Cartel's Base.
At 11 PM, Gwen and Wong sat side by side on the worn-out couch in their living room. Their bloodshot eyes glued to the flickering screen of an old TV.
The lottery show host's overly enthusiastic voice came through the speakers, but neither of them paid attention to anything but the numbers being drawn.
As the minutes passed by, the moment of truth arrived. The final set of numbers appeared on the screen. Gwen and Wong held their trembling hands together, praying for a miracle.
"...Six... thirty-two... twenty-two... forty-nine... seventeen... five."
The duo compared the numbers with the lottery ticket on the coffee table in front of them. They also looked at the phone and the written number that Carn had written.
They matched!
Their heart skipped a beat.
ALL NUMBER MATCHED!
