Chapter 2: Chapter 2
'...wow,' Rio marveled, both in awe and disbelief, as he absorbed the staggering information provided by the system.
Excitement coursed through Rio's veins as he mentally requested the system to open the welcome gift. The anticipation was almost overwhelming, and as the box revealed its contents, his eyes widened in sheer astonishment. He couldn't believe what he saw before him.
"Whoa! A villa in Opera Heights worth $4.5 million, a shop lot near Juspter College & University valued at $700,000, and a highly talented manager for F&B!" Rio exclaimed, his voice filled with awe and disbelief.
Realizing the incredible potential these rewards held, Rio knew he could kickstart his business ventures with the capital provided by the system and the mysterious F&B recipe he had yet to open. He couldn't wait to see what other treasures he would acquire in the future. Surely, they would all bring him tremendous wealth and success.
After regaining his composure, Rio decided to open the F&B recipe. With a focused mind, he willed the recipe to materialize in his hands, and like magic, it appeared before him. As he delved into the information injected into his mind earlier, he realized that the recipe was for a bubble tea beverage—a popular drink from his previous world. However, he knew that bubble tea wasn't a thing in this new world, making it a unique opportunity for him.
Despite the similarities between this world and his previous one, Rio couldn't stand the sight and stench of his old, dilapidated home. With the luxurious villa now under his name, he saw no reason to linger. As he dialed his landlord's number, he informed him of his decision to vacate the place, even transferring the remaining unpaid rental with an extra amount as a gesture of goodwill. With a final payment of $422, he bid farewell to his former dwelling.
Stepping out of the studio, Rio hailed a nearby cab and shared the destination with the driver. As the vehicle cruised through the familiar streets, Rio quietly observed his surroundings, noting how everything seemed unchanged—just like his previous world. It brought a sense of familiarity mixed with the excitement of new opportunities.
Upon arriving at the guard house of Opera Heights, the guards approached Rio's car. He rolled down the window and confidently informed them that he was the new resident of Villa #1, presenting the necessary documents and his identification card. Although the guards were taken aback by the fact that such a young man owned the most expensive villa, they quickly regained their composure, their stoic expressions masking their surprise.
After going through the necessary confirmation with the residency manager, the guard returned Rio's documents and ID with a salute. The grand gate opened, allowing the cab to drive in and drop Rio off at his new home. As he paid the cab fare and gave a generous tip, Rio couldn't contain his excitement as he stepped out and eagerly explored his luxurious new abode.
The villa was a testament to opulence and sophistication, seamlessly blending classic elegance with modern design. From the grand entrance adorned with intricate details to the lush gardens, every aspect exuded a sense of luxury. Rio marveled at the grandeur of the foyer with its marble floors and exquisite chandelier, while the fragrance of carefully arranged bouquets filled the air.
Entering the living spaces, he found himself surrounded by comfort and style. Plush seating, a grand fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering breathtaking views created an atmosphere of indulgence. The dining room beckoned with a long table, fine china, and a sparkling chandelier, promising unforgettable gourmet experiences. The bedrooms provided a haven of tranquility, featuring luxurious fabrics, king-sized beds, and elegant ensuite bathrooms.
Venturing outdoors, Rio discovered expansive terraces, a crystal-clear infinity pool, and secluded seating areas nestled amidst meticulously manicured gardens. Every corner of the villa emanated a commitment to luxury, promising an unparalleled experience of refinement.
Rio couldn't help but marvel at his extraordinary fortune. This was the beginning of a new chapter in his life—one filled with wealth, success, and the pursuit of his entrepreneurial dreams.
