There, lies Hillary's lifeless body.
The nurse who was asked to get his family informed came back to check if he had any ID card on so that she could contact his family.
Hillary was brought in as an emergency patient last night by some good Samaritans, his bills were paid completely so he can get the best treatment he needs.
As the nurse was searching for Hillary's clothes for his ID, A system emerged. "New user detected, save user from dying."
Reviving in progress 10, 45, 60, 80, 100. Reviving completed. completed.
The nurse didn't find any ID, but his phone was in his back pocket. As she made move to bring out the phone, Hillary Suddenly moved his leg, the nurse was startled. While she was still confused if it was just her reaction, Hillary moved again.
"The doctor declared him dead, I wonder why he is moving. Dr. Williams is a professional at his Job, he has never declared someone who is alive dead." As she was still surprised and still in her thoughts, Hillary began to sneeze. Quickly she uncovered him and removed the cotton wool on his nose and ears.
Hillary gave out a heavy breath, the nurse dashed out to go get the doctor. "Where are my? Hillary asked in confusion.
On arrival, the doctor was amazed. He placed his stethoscope on Hillary's chest. "Everything is fine." He exclaimed in shock.
"Get him something to eat." Doctor Williams instructed." And nurses went the food. To the hospital Hillary was a prominent man. The person that brought him to the hospital made that impression. The money paid to the hospital account was huge.
At this point Hillary recalled how the mercenaries brutally beat him, but he didn't remember how he ended up in the hospital, where he was receiving top-notch treatment. He looked around and found out the room wasn't an ordinary hospital room. It was more like a VIP room.
As soon as he relaxed his head on the pillow, a sizeable blue screen appeared on the ceiling were his gaze were, at first he thought it was part of the VIP stuff, you can watch movie wherever you face. He suddenly heard a voice, his name was echoed loud and clear.
"Hillary MacDonald, welcome to the money system, where you can role the world." On hearing that, was very swift sitting up, he looked around the room to see who was behind the voice, but no-one was at sight.
"What is going on, why am I hearing voices, who called my name, and what the hell is The Money System?
In the few seconds the voice sounded again. "Your account has been created with the sum of Five hundred million dollars.
"Hahaha" Hillary laughed coldly on hearing that, his face held mist of anger and amusement. Amidst his laughter his phone beeps.
He brought it out to check what it was, then he found out that his phone was badly damaged, his phone was in his while the mercenaries descended on him. But fortunately he can see through the screen.
Notification.
Hillary MacDonald
Credit Alert 500,000,000 USD
Acct 674678....
Balance 200,000,100
He wore a surprised look.
"Is this a kind of joke or something," this can't be. Hillary screamed in confusion, he scrolled to his bank app to confirm if the money was actually there. His heart began beating fast, the money is actually in his Bank app which is supposed to clear his doubt.
"Maybe someone, is trying to test him, or it's a mistake transfer." Hillary tried to convince himself.
"Hey Mr speaker, whoever your are make yourself visible let's st matters straight. Stop playing with my intelligence."
"Why am I talking to myself? There is no one here. I think I am hallucinating, the doctor just told me I was declared dead some minutes ago, it could be that I am actually dead and in another world." His quest to know what was going on lingered.
"Am I really dead? He slapped himself so hard. As the slap landed his cheeks he felt tremendous pain, his eye felt as though he was seeing brilliant Star, soon a large screen appeared on the wall opposite him and the same voice spoke again.
"You are expected to put the Five Hundred Thousand Dollars you received into good use as soon as possible, you have only five days to spend all. Failure to accomplish this task will result to a very terrible consequence." As soon as the voice was done the large screen disappeared before Hillary could say a word.
"Oh no! what is this again? How can someone spend such a huge amount of money in just five days? I didn't even know the sender?" Hillary was poor but he still had integrity, he didn't believe in reaping where he did not sow. This money might have been mistakenly sent to me." He objected.
Ding!
Another notification appeared on his damaged phone screen, and the message reads; "Doubting will get you in trouble, the five days started counting the minute you received the alert."
Hillary looked around to see if someone else was in the room spying him. He was greatly startled.
Hillary has so many things to sort out with money. He sighs! He knitted his face revealing a worried look as he continued in his thoughts.
"it's unfortunately I am not sure of the source of the money, and a money of such an amount can't even be spent in one year, whoever is behind this trick wants me dead to be frank."
Hillary's phone is old and outdated, and the present damage it got might lead to malfunction any time soo. He has been saving to replace it for the past two years. However, for some reason, his savings can't even sustain him for a month.
As a caring boyfriend, Hillary always spends money on Edna who apparently is now his ex-girlfriend. he bought her gifts daily, sponsored her birthday, and fulfilled her other needs and wants, disregarding his own needs. He barely eats to have three square meals, and all his clothes are worn out."
He tried to make his way out of the hospital room, but he collided with a nurse making her way inside to check him. "Mr MacDonald, you should be on the bed resting, if you need anything why not use the land line over there, she pointed at the direction of the telephone, and a number is there to call."
"Sorry I was about to get something, but it's okay I will use the telephone."
On the nurse's hand was a tray and in it was Cornbread, Apple pie and sandwich, with a freshly made juice. "Here!" she dropped it on the table.
"Wow! So nice of you to get me food."
"Actually someone left it at the reception, and asked me to bring it to you, she was the one that brought you to her hospital last night."
"Really what's her name? So I can appreciate her.
"Unfortunately she didn't disclose her Identity, more like a good Samaritan.
Hillary dived in and began eating, all his life he hadn't seen such amount of food all for himself, and he was seriously hungry.
.....
Next morning.
Ring ring!
A call entered his phone, Hillary's sleepy eyes disappeared as soon as he saw the caller's ID, It was none other than Morgan Armstrong, his boss. Hillary totally forgot he was supposed to beat at work, it was a Saturday morning. Hillary works part-time in a delivery company, mostly in the evening and then works from morning till night on weekends.
An angry voice, more like a thunderstorm rang from the other end. "You bastard! I did you a favour by employing you, and you have the gort to miss work, kiss your job goodbye, and as for your monthly allowance for this month you are never smelling it, ingratiate! Morgan coursed and ended the call before Hillary could say a word.
Now that he was dismissed from work, and his salary wasn't going to be given to him, his mind flashed back to the incident earlier, He has five hundred million dollars in his account there was no room to be sad, after all the company payed him peanut and treated him like trash. His face brightened, and his heart beat with so much happiness. I am going to spend this money like a king though it will last for five days. I will live my best life out of it.
There was no need to go shopping in person, after all It's a mobile world, he can get anything he wanted just in a snap of a finger. Hillary is a delivery guy himself and he knows how it works.
He logged in to an online shopping store and ordered some things for a start. The first thing he shopped was a mobile phone, the money he was designated to spend was huge so he went for the iPhone 14 pro max.
His stomach leaped with joy as his payment was marked successful, at first he held his heart in fear the the money may just be a prank.
Among others, Hillary bought a cyber security company that was auctioned for sale. While he was scrolling through the online shop and advert popped out, auctioning CT. Cyber security company for sell, he knew about CT cyber security company, as it was on of the largest, but he didn't think the owners would want to sell it.
CT cyber security company, is his dream place of work, since he got admission in the university to study Mathematics and statistics, he always fantasy graduating and working there.
In order to be sure he was to a very popular cite to see if it was true. It was the headline news in the site, Hillary didn't hesitate to tap BUY, though he didn't see himself having the courage to be a boss.
Soon he got a debit alert of one hundred and eighty million USD.
Bingo! Hillary screamed out in joy.
"Congratulations Mr MAYFAIR HILLARY, you are our highest bidder. Would you want to drop by to get the document or have it delivered to your door step?"
Hillary thought for a while. "Should he accept a doorstep delivery or go to the company himself? In as much as he wants to show off in school to get Edna, and others jealous Hillary still want to step foot in the almighty CT Cyber Security Company Complex.
"I would come get it myself, hope I can come anytime?" After the call ended, Hillary lay back the bed with a (satisfied smile) who could believe he would ever have such an amount of money.
"Sure, the company is all your sir."
Hillary relaxed, since it was a Sunday.
