"The world’s not fair, but fairness doesn’t pay the bills. You don’t wait for a handout — you build your own damn ladder, one step at a time."
Ethan Grey’s life was built on ambition, hard work, and hope — until a single accusation destroyed it all. 
Framed by his ruthless boss, Ethan loses his job, his reputation, and is left drowning in half a million dollars of debt. 
Cast aside by a society that thrives on crushing the weak, he’s at rock bottom with no way out.  
But in his darkest moment, something extraordinary happens. A mysterious system awakens, offering Ethan a second chance — but with rules.

Each one is a gamble, but with every success, the system rewards him with newfound skills and opportunities.

The cool evening air was a welcome change from the heat of the day, and Riley took a deep breath, feeling a little more refreshed after changing into a simple but elegant dark dress.
