A Hundred Million Mistake Novels & Stories

There was just one issue. The location was an old neighborhood with some historic significance—at least, that’s what they claimed before money became involved. The moment I offered ten times the market value, people practically lined up to sell their properties. All except for one person. One damn person. And the most infuriating part? Their house was the smallest, the most insignificant in the entire area. It wasn’t worth a fraction of what I was offering, yet they refused to sell. I clenched the document in my hand, my jaw tightening as my eyes landed on the bolded offer. 100 million dollars. And yet, they didn't sign the document.

If the decimal point had been wrong, it could have resulted in a near-billion-dollar loss for Ford Corporation. Such carelessness was inexcusable. Liesel walked into the CEO's office with the contract in hand. Jacob appeared aloof and detached as always. When he heard the door open, he frowned and looked up. When he saw who it was, his expression softened slightly. "Is something the matter?" Liesel placed the contract on his desk and pushed it toward him. Jacob glanced at the title of the document and immediately recognized it. "Mr. Ford, do you know about Natalie's mistake? She entered the wrong decimal point, nearly costing Ford Corporation billions of dollars of losses."

he said and gestured for Mirabel to sign it “Okay..” she picked up the papers and glanced through it where her eyes met with three hundred million dollars, she cleared her throat and adjusted in her sit “There is a mistake here” she said and handed the papers back to Mr Raymond. “There are no mistakes here" Mr Raymond said “There are” “No, I just checked them now, there is no mistakes here” he said and dropped the papers back on the table Mirabel leaned forward and gazed at Mr Raymond “Three hundred million d….” She said her voice low

The roundtable conference room was filled with employees. When Scott’s sharp question rang out, Julissa froze, caught off guard and a little nervous. “Y-yes… I did it…” “So, Miss Hickman, are you planning to cover the extra one million yourself?” Julissa quickly glanced at the projection screen. Holy crap, she really messed up. She had accidentally added an extra zero—120,000 had turned into 1.2 million. The difference was over a million!

McBride informed me about it. I pulled up my banking app and signed in; I looked at the balance and had to sit the fuck down. $10 Million dollars had hit my account! That had to be a mistake. I frantically looked at my text messages to see if Ms. McBride had reached out to me about a mistake that happened, but there was nothing. $10 Million dollars! That wasn’t some chump change, that had to be a mistake. I called Ms. McBride immediately. “Hello Poppie, how are you?” Ms. McBride answered.

I stared at the page, my exhausted brain desperately trying to process the numbers. Coefficient: 0.0785 I had written 0.785. Julian was right. It wasn't a minor error. It was a massive, fatal mistake. It was the kind of mistake freshmen who didn't belong in the Vanguard program made. It was the kind of mistake you made when you were working seventy hours a week to avoid eviction instead of sleeping. "Oh my god," Chloe whispered, looking at the notebook, realizing the severity of the error. "Tamine... Aris would have failed us on the spot if we submitted that."

A simple typo. The figure listed as 100,000 should have been 1,000,000. Pointing to the line, she said quietly but clearly, “There’s a typo here. It should be one million, not one hundred thousand.” The room fell silent for several seconds. Mrs. Lee studied her before offering a faint smile.

Rebecca~ The first hundred million was somehow the easiest to find. Which was an absolutely insane sentence. I stared at the screen for a full ten seconds after Nina said it. Then I looked at her. Then back at the screen. Then back at her again. “Did you just say the first hundred million?” Nina did not look up. “Yes.” “The first.” “Yes.” “The word first is doing a lot of damage to my mental health right now.” That finally got a smile out of her. Not a big one. Just enough to make me feel slightly less like I was losing my mind. Unfortunately, the numbers remained exactly the same. Which meant I was still losing my mind.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Hill. If you want the shares, bring me $1,500,000,000 in exchange.” “One point five billion dollars? But you just gave me five hundred million dollars.” “That was just now, but we’re talking about now. Besides, even if I say $500,000,000, can you afford it?” Harvard was stunned. He was not able to take it out. At this time, Harvard felt as if he had fallen into cold storage. He felt so cold and weak. He even felt as if he was deceived. However, when he carefully recalled it, he realized that they were all mistakes that he had made in a moment of madness. Nobody had forced him to make those mistakes.
