The Lottery Novels & Stories

"I've chosen it for a long time. I think I can hit the jackpot." Russell glanced at it, and the cracks on her phone were very eye-catching. He said, "Every person who buys a lottery feels that they can hit the jackpot." "Dreams are always necessary." "That's a delusion." Chelsea curled her lips. "A person like you who was born rich doesn't understand the meaning of a lottery ticket." Russell suddenly said, "If you win a lottery, it is an unexpected gain, and it is a shared property of husband and wife. Do I also have half of it? Thinking like this, I feel it seems to have some meaning."

“Do tell.” “I don’t know.” I crossed the room and dropped into the chair across from her desk. “Maybe you.” She rolled her eyes, but the corner of her mouth twitched. “Okay. Focus.” She shuffled the papers into a neater stack. “Were you able to send out all the lottery tickets?” “Why are we even giving lottery tickets out for this so-called event?” I asked, though I already knew the answer was coming whether I wanted it or not. “Duh.” She said it like I’d asked her why water was wet. “Because one of those VIP people might be our Victor.”

"Thanks, guys! But who knows—maybe Evie's the walking lucky charm." "She's holding a lottery ticket right now, so why don't we have her scratch it and see?" At that, the crowd started egging me on, shouting for me to scratch the ticket right then and there to see if I'd won. Some of them even started placing bets. "I'll bet a full year's pay plus my bonus that Evie's ticket isn't worth more than a thousand dollars!" Another laughed and chimed in, "I bet there isn't a single penny on that ticket! I put ten years on it, and if I win, she has to hand over ten years' worth of her pay!"

Of course, Logan saw through their minds. After dwelling on it, Logan explained to them, "I got that money from winning the lottery. It's a total of $1,500,000. I panicked after I won the lottery because I felt that I didn't earn it with the proper means. So, I donated it and traveled with Etiennette for a month. I spent all the money." "You won a lottery?" Ruby and Gerald were astounded. "It seems like a person won the grand prize of a lottery of $1,500,000 in our city a month ago. This was even reported on the news, but that person received the reward with a mask. Was it you?" asked Ruby.

As the announcer read out the numbers, Queenie scrambled to check the numbers on the paper Larissa had given her. Her expression started to change as well. Someone from the crowd couldn't stand the suspense anymore and blurted, "Well, did you win?" "Do you really believe her? It's just a stupid lottery ticket printed from god knows where. It would be a miracle if she won!" Jeremy said. Larissa wasn't worried at all. After all, Ambrose had gotten her the lottery ticket, so there was no way she wouldn't win. "I won …" Queenie mumbled.

Tyler purposefully raised his voice. "Hey, Lia, remember that time someone won a million bucks in the lottery?" Tyler pinched Liora's arm and winked at her. She quickly caught on and nodded, saying, "Of course, I do!" Overhearing their chat, Jade turned her focus to the lottery machine upon hearing about the million-dollar prize. 'Can a person win 1,000,000 dollars from this machine?' she wondered. Just as Jade was doubtful, Brandon said, "I know this! My friend won a few hundred dollars from this machine!"

I claimed my prize at the lottery center. The jackpot was a cool 15 million, but after the taxman took his cut, I was left with 12 million. Brandon and I had not signed the divorce papers yet, so the law said the money was up for grabs between me and his mom, Aria. Aria was already waiting at the lottery center entrance. After a month, her hair had turned gray. "Noelle, that ticket belonged to my son. You should hand over every dime," she insisted. Melissa, her belly round with a new life, had stopped playing the grieving widow and moved into the house I once shared with Brandon. "It's true. Brandon's baby is in here, so part of

Even if it was, she couldn't believe that such a huge benefit would fall into her lap. "Miss, is there no cost to participate in the lottery?" Jasson asked as he saw Ivy walking away. "It's 1,000 dollars for one chance," the manager replied with a smile. One thousand dollars for a chance to win a prize was like betting in a gamble--Ivy was not that impulsive; she was practical. "But, sir, if you provide a medical certificate and a marriage certificate, you can participate for free." ***

I gulped hard against the memories of what we had overcome. Loving Jordan Hill wasn’t part of the plan. Until he came like a robber at night. I was the bad boy’s lottery, never knew I was his soon-to-be-possession. Hide me not, Jordan. Possess me forever. The End

Without knowing what else to do, he just kept going around a couple of laps until night fell. When he arrived at his new home, he imagined how his wife received him, but now he was all alone in a new apartment. He flopped down on the couch, where he turned on the television, he then said in a huff, “Trash,” Taking his belongings out of his pockets, where he went back to find the lottery ticket that the older woman had given him, he looked at it carefully. “Sunflower,” he said in a low voice. He thought it was silly, but at this point, he got carried away. He looked for the channel where they broadcasted the lottery, channel 12.
