A Poor Youth's Journey to Success
Chapter 16

After Issabel and Henry left the restaurant, Lyra and Eric sat down to continue their conversation.

After a while they chatted and ate, the two of them decided to go home.

Eric and Lyra leave the restaurant at the same time until they arrive at the place of the wedding.

Do you want me to take you home?" haggard Lyra while looking at Eric with a faint smile.

Eric quickly waved his hand as he said." Not necessary, not at all necessary. I'm more comfortable taking a taxi, Miss Lyra."

"Are you more comfortable in a taxi?" Lyra looked at Eric as she said with a slight annoyance." How can you say that, you haven't tried to ride a car with me!"

Eric scratched his head in confusion to respond to Lyra." It's true that riding Miss Lyra's car may be more comfortable, but I chose to take a taxi. I'm afraid I'll trouble Miss Lyra!"

Lyra quickly pulled out Eric's hand as she said in annoyance." Don't say any more nonsense!"

Lyra opens the car door for Eric, then she forcibly pushes Eric into her car. Lyra came in and sat in the driver's seat.

While Eric can only sigh long while entering Lyra's car.

Eric turned to look at Lyra, but Lyra was looking at him as well.

Two eyes staring at each other!

Lyra smiled faintly as she looked at Eric, while Eric was instantly stunned like a statue looking at Lyra's beautiful gaze.

Lyra waved her hand to resuscitate Eric from shock." Why are you looking at me like that?"

Hearing that, Eric quickly regained his senses. Eric embarrassedly turned his gaze out the window.

Lyra who saw eric acting like that made her laugh a little.

"Why are you ashamed to look at me?" lyra asked with a small laugh.

Eric frowned as he said." I'd rather be told to look at a ghost than look at Miss Lyra."Why?" asked Lyra impatiently.

Eric said with a small smile." I could have had a heart attack if I kept staring at Ms. Lyra. Does Miss Lyra know why?"

Lyra with her sweet smile shook her head in response.

Eric said as he looked at Lyra." Because the beauty of Miss Lyra is already over the limit. People are more surprised to see the beautiful Miss Lyra than they are surprised to see the demon ." Eric took a breath and continued.

" Does Miss Lyra not have a glass in the house to look at? Or do I need to buy Miss Lyra a glass so that Miss Lyra can look at your own beauty?"

Lyra could not help but laugh at Eric's statement.

"You really dare to tease me! "

lyra said with a laugh. The atmosphere inside the car was now coming to life, unlike before there was a hint of awkwardness.

Lyra becomes more comfortable talking while joking with the figure of Eric. He had never before spoken to a man of his age like this. Eric was the first to talk like this with her.

The two of them continued chatting until without them knowing, the car had reached its destination.

"We've arrived?" ask Lyra.

Eric nodded." Right, we've arrived! Miss Lyra can drop me off in front of there, my boarding is not too far from here!

Hearing that, Lyra quickly said with a frown." Well, I still want to talk to you! " Lyra looked at Eric while saying." How about we go for a little walk?"

Eric heard it scratching his head in confusion. Eric recalled that this afternoon, his homeroom guardian would come to collect his annual fee. So, of course, Eric could not accept Lyra's offer to go for a walk.

"Can't miss Lyra! It's almost noon. Isn't it noon we're going to college?" Eric asked while looking at Lyra.

Lyra who heard that was immediately stunned.

Lyra smiled as she scratched her head and said." Ooo yes! We will go to college later in the day.

Eric asked while staring at Lyra." So how? I'll just get off here, okay?"

Lyra nodded." Yeah, just get off! Next time we go for a walk."

After Lyra says that, Eric quickly descends Lyra's car. The two of them separated at that moment.

Eric quickly returned to his boarding house, he did not dare to make the homeroom guardian more waiting.

"Auntie's been here a long time?" Eric immediately asked when he saw his homeroom guardian.

The hostess turned to look for the source of the sound. And he found Eric calling him from behind." Yeah, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Where the hell have you been? Didn't you hear me yesterday that I'd come here to collect your cost debt.?”

Eric replied in a soft tone." Sorry aunt, I had an important activity!"

"Yes, it's okay!" the woman looked at Eric while saying again." But have you prepared the money? Don't tell me you're waiting again this year!"

Eric did not reply, but Eric quickly pulled out his phone, then immediately transferred $3 thousand to his bank account.

After he transferred it, Eric gave proof of the transaction to his boarding guardian while saying." $2.5 thousand right? I've transferred $ 3 thousand to aunt. Consider it $500 bonus for aunty

Looking at Eric's transaction history, he quickly pulled out his phone to check the funds that were entered in his bank account.

And it turns out that's true, Eric didn't lie, if he actually transferred $3 thousand dollars to his host.

With a cheerful smile, Eric's hostess respectfully looked down in front of Eric as she said." It's amazing you now Eric can pay off the cost. And thank you for the extra bonus."

Eric smiled in response.

After he saw Eric, the woman quickly turned around and left Eric without saying anything.

While Eric immediately entered his boarding house and prepared to leave for University.

After entering his room, Eric opened his phone again to see the profit he got. Eric was really happy for today. First he was very happy because he got a big profit from his crypto investment. And secondly, Eric is very happy to be able to sit and chat casually with the figure of Lyra Idolanya.

Eric's assets in his crypto form are now $5.7 billion. Eric thought for a moment about the use of this money. But after a while, Eric made a quick decision that he would withdraw $ 3.7 billion and would leave $2 billion to be reinvested.

Eric really felt like a dream. He had never thought of having this much money. For Eric, now he can get what he wants.
