Dan Druff Billionaire True Story Novels & Stories

He was so sure of himself. I thought for a bit and then asked, "Could you invest some money in me? I want to start my own business." Draven did not hesitate and put a generous amount into my account right away. "Take a look. Is that enough? If not, I can send more." I stared at my bank account balance and almost cried. I had never seen so much money before in my life! Draven was one of the country's richest men and the heir to the Gibson family for a reason—he was so generous.

"Oh, come on, Soph, it's been six months already. Move on." The sheer audacity made my vision blur. I scoffed and rolled my eyes. “Exactly, that's what I'm trying to do. But why do you keep popping up around me like an unwanted weed?" His eyebrows shot up. “Weed? Girl, chill,” he said with a chuckle, clearly amused by my anger. “I’m just here to support my brother’s company.” I blinked, confused. “Who the hell is your brother?” Liam grinned as he raised his champagne glass, pointing toward the stage. "Well, that's him."

“I read last month’s business report. He was promoted to chairman of the entire Roth Empire. Officially the richest man in America. Can you believe that?” Her voice swelled with enthusiasm, spilling over into a running commentary. “And apparently he’s never had a public girlfriend, never been married. Men like that? They’re practically extinct.” Drake shifted in his seat, visibly uneasy with how starstruck she sounded. “You seem to have a crush on him,” he teased, though his smile was tight. “Every woman does,” Thelma replied without shame. “And why wouldn’t they? Franklin Roth has no scandals. Not one. He’s ruthless in business, sure, but that’s why he’s at the top.

Felix was stunned by how quickly Billy's demeanor had transformed at the mention of money. Drake was equally dumbfounded. He had not expected Felix to throw out such a massive sum. While Drake could technically afford it, dropping ten million dollars was pure insanity. If his family found out, they would probably disown him—or worse. Drake scoffed, recovering his composure. "Look at him, Mr. Stefan. Does he look like someone who has ten million dollars? He's just bluffing to get inside." In Canraville, young people who could casually donate ten million dollars without ulterior motives were rare enough to count on one hand. Hence, Drake believed Felix was bluffing.

“So who is he? A farmer's son or a man that was picked from the street?” “He is Tyler Brooke, one the youngest Billionaires in the whole of New York.” Draco revealed and I sent him a weird stare, is he drunk or something?” “That's not possible! Stop playing with me, I am not in the mood for jokes.” I warned and he suddenly placed his macbook in front of me. He then began showing me an unawares picture of Tyler attending a graceful occasion. I was shocked and thought it was photoshopped but it clearly doesn't look like something that was edited.

When he ran into Elio, who was only thirteen years old at the time, the two of them chatted about martial arts. Back then, Uncle Shaw was reluctant to lend Drake any money, since he did not think Drake would be able to pay him back. Luckily for Drake, Elio had spoken up. "Lend Big Silly Hughes two million dollars,” he said. “I'll vouch for him. If he doesn't pay you back, I'll pay the debt for him." Since Elio had spoken, Uncle Shaw had no objections. He immediately lent Drake two million dollars. Two years later, Drake returned the money as promised. With the momentum on his side, he finally managed to become a millionaire in his own right.

I laughed lowly at what Molly said, although I really didn't understand it because my mind was focused on the fact that the man who saved me and I vented out to last night was here inside my classroom, and it's not just that-- he is my professor! "Our new professor is Mr. Thiago DiLaurentiis?" I heard the girl behind me whisper again. She sounds so surprised. "Omg, you know him? Can you help me with him?" The other girl giggled. "Girl, are you kidding? He's like a famous CEO, and he's a freaking billionaire!" I sucked on my lower lip. Is that true? "I can't believe he's here right now. As far as I know, he's not from this city," I heard the girl add.
