Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Respecting the Ride

Jay was still riding the thrill of owning his new luxury car as he accepted his first passenger request. It was a family of four, and he figured his spacious new ride would make the perfect impression. Pulling up, he saw the family—a father, mother, and two young kids—waiting on the curb. They loaded into the car, eyes widening at the plush seats and polished wood accents. Jay offered a polite nod as they settled in, satisfied to see their expressions of awe.

The trip began smoothly, the car gliding through traffic as Jay drove with his usual calm focus. However, after a few miles, things started to get tense. The father—the man of the family—began making demands about shortcuts, snapping directions without much patience. Jay maintained his polite composure, ignoring the impatience behind him and following the GPS, knowing it would steer them around heavy traffic.

But as they neared their destination, the father's irritation boiled over. "You should've taken my directions!" he shouted, his voice booming in the quiet car. "Are you even listening? This is wasting my time!"

Jay kept his hands steady on the wheel, responding in a calm tone. "I'm just trying to get you there as quickly and safely as possible, sir."

This only seemed to enrage the man further. He demanded that Jay pull over, grumbling about how he'd "teach him a lesson" about customer service. Jay parked on the side of the road as instructed, unsure if the situation would diffuse or escalate.

Then, as the man stepped out, fists clenched as if he was about to take a swing at the car, something remarkable happened. The man's eyes caught the gleaming luxury emblem on the front of Jay's car—a subtle but powerful reminder of the car's elite status. His fury faltered as recognition dawned on his face.

"Oh… this is an Arion?" the man stammered, visibly taken aback. His aggressive stance softened, and he took a step back, unclenching his fists. The whole family exchanged awkward glances, suddenly aware of the premium level of service they'd nearly disrespected.

Jay seized the opportunity, maintaining his professionalism. "Thank you for the ride. Drive safely," he said calmly, as the family gathered themselves and quickly exited the car, the father offering a sheepish nod before they hurried off.

As Jay drove away, he felt the familiar tingle in his pocket, signaling another system notification. Pulling over to check, he found a reward waiting for him

Reward : Elysium Villas (10 villas)

Estimated value : 300,000,000$

Location : 12-B , Inner City .

OMG ! The reward this Time Is Ways more compared to all of the rewards that were given before.

Jay's mind raced as he read through the details. The villas wasn't just a luxurious property; it was an empire in itself, worth millions of dollars. This network of villas catered exclusively to high-profile clients, from celebrities to corporate moguls, ensuring both prestige and a significant income stream.

Leaning back in his seat, Jay felt a surge of excitement and disbelief. With a property like Elysium villas, he was officially moving into the highest echelons of society. The system was turning his life upside down, rewarding him beyond anything he had ever imagined, and for the first time, he began to wonder just how far it would take him.

Unable to believe his luck, Jay decided to head over to Elysium Pavilion that very evening to see the property firsthand. When he arrived, the entrance alone took his breath away. Crafted with rare, polished stone and intricately designed woodwork, the entire pavilion complex exuded exclusivity. A professional and welcoming staff greeted him, showing him around each stunning property in the complex.

Inside, the houses were fully furnished with rare materials—Italian marble floors, handcrafted wooden furniture, and custom artwork adorning the walls. Every corner spoke of elegance and an appreciation for luxury. The interiors were arranged with sophistication, yet still felt warm and welcoming, making him feel like he had walked into a world apart from anything he had ever known.

Outside, a sprawling swimming pool sparkled under the pavilion's ambient lighting, surrounded by lounge chairs and landscaped gardens, with discreet staff always at the ready. Each villa also had its own private pool, giving an added level of privacy to those who might reside or stay there.

Jay noted the surrounding neighborhood as well. The nearby residences were owned by some of the wealthiest and most influential people in the city, from CEOs and politicians to world-famous celebrities. It was a neighborhood where privacy was valued and elegance was paramount, the kind of place people only dreamed of living in.

A system notification chimed in his mind as he looked around, and he could hardly believe his fortune. With this pavilion complex, he'd instantly gained a place among the elite. And as he stood there, marveling at his new reality, he couldn't help but feel like this was just the beginning.
