When fate plays its hand

At first, Wanda struggled because she typed slowly and made many typos. Gradually, she discovered she could use voice–to–text features.

Later, a neighbor who ran a parcel delivery station in the neighborhood told her about becoming the leader for a group buy community All she had to do was to share a link, and she would earn a commission for every order placed through it.

Curious, Wanda decided to give it a try. She began posting group–buying deals in the

WhatsApp chat group.

She didn’t just drop a random purchase link in the chat, expecting people to just buy it. Instead, she would purchase the products first and try it herself.

Only when she found them to be of good quality and reasonably priced would she share them. with the group. Wanda would also leave her personal review and a reminder not to spend excessively.

recommendations!

What began as a few scattered orders, slowly grew to dozens and hundreds of orders. Now, she could earn a few hundred dollars daily from her efforts.

Little did she expect that the regulars in the chat group actually trusted her re

It left Ollie utterly stunned.

Every morning, he had to get up early to prepare homemade desserts and milk pudding. Then, he carried them on his back to sell in several neighborhoods. As the weather became warm, it got hotter by the day. He would return home drenched in sweat after each trip.

In the afternoon, he would set up a stall in the square below their apartment to sell milk pudding, working until evening.

Yet, despite a whole day of hard labor, he didn’t earn much more than his wife.

Wanda couldn’t help but laugh. “Of course! You earn with your physical labor, but I earn with my brains. It’s much easier to make money my way.

“Oh, who taught you to say that? Where did you learn about this group–buying thing? And what’s it called again… private traffic? Where did you learn all this?” Ollie asked.

“Do you remember the two young women who visited our house last time? Joli’s classmates?”

“Yes, I remember.”

Wanda continued, “The chubby one is called Madison. She added me on WhatsApp, and that’s where I learned all this. She even recommended a few books to me, saying I’d definitely learn something if I read more. novelbin

“I’ve had plenty of free time at home since we moved to the city and stopped farming, so I bought those books and read them. I have to say that they’ve been really helpful…”

Ollie sighed. “Our family really owes them a lot. Otherwise…”

“That’s why I told Joli to work hard and do his job well.”

“And we should treat Madison to a meal to thank her properly.”

“That’s true.” Wanda nodded quickly. “I told him the same thing.”

And so, Joli specifically bought Madison a meal before returning to his hometown. “My mom said that it’s all thanks to you, so she insisted that I treat you to a meal. It’s her way of expressing her gratitude to you.”

“But-”

“You can choose where to eat. I’m fine with anything!”

After working together for some time, Joli knew by now that Madison was very particular about her food. Her discerning palate could easily distinguish between good and bad dishes.

“Fine.” Madison finally nodded in agreement. She couldn’t refuse him.

She rescheduled her morning plans with Sebastian to noon the next day. Their midday and afternoon activities were shortened to free up time for Joli.

Sebastian thought Madison just wanted to sleep in, so he didn’t ask any questions.

However, he later spotted the two of them eating inside a restaurant through the floor–length windows, chatting away happily. His face was as black as thunder.

The waiter handed him the takeout container cheerfully. “Here’s your order of one roasted

chicken.“!

Sebastian snorted coldly and thought, “They are already eating the roasted chicken! What’s the point of buying this for her?”

By noon, Madison arrived at their agreed meeting place. She called Sebastian, “Where are you? Why can’t I see you anywhere?”

“I’m at home.”

“What? Say that again!‘

On the other end, Sebastian instinctively shrank in fear. “I’m on my way.”
