Chapter 3: I’m Really A Genius!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone was a little stunned at first, but eventually, their expression turned to surprise.

“Regardless of whether I advance or not, I can still get the 10,000 dollars prize money?”

“That’s too easy!”

The other husbands were so happy that they cheered in their hearts. Participating in this program was not as bad as they thought.

On the other hand, Thomson’s expression was indifferent. He felt so helpless he wanted to laugh.

It was no wonder his wife dragged him here. It was to earn 10,000 dollars!

At this moment, he wanted to tell his wife the truth, that he was the richest man in the world, and he was not short of money at all. 

However, it was just a thought.

He very much liked the fulfilling and simple life that he led now, but he did not want to end his life early because of a show.

His wife knew nothing about his identity as Thomson was just a waiter when they got together.

He only had a monthly salary of about 1,000 dollars, which was not a lot. So in Alice’s eyes, her husband was a poor man.

However, because she loved her husband very much, she had no choice but to participate in this how.

With Alice’s salary, she need not care about the 10,000 dollars.

After all, she had a senior position in a small business, and she earned about 6,000 to 7,000 dollars a month.

Although they lived a well-to-do life now, she was thinking about her current life and both of their futures together too. 

She wanted to marry Thomson, but she was troubled by her own family’s disapproval.

When her parents found out that the husband she found was a poor man with no car, no house, and no savings, they were not happy. 

Her mother was so mad that she scolded Alice, “I absolutely do not agree with the two of you. Our family doesn’t particularly care about the rich, and neither are we snobbish people. But if the man doesn’t even have the basic necessities of life, then how can he provide for you?”

Alice was a little upset to hear her mother’s rejection. Hence, she worked hard to make more money, which she gave to her husband to buy a car and house in his name. She hoped that this would impress her parents and they would allow the two of them to be together.

Alice really gave her all to Thomson.

However, it was all a beautiful misunderstanding. When she knew about Thomson’s work, Alice subconsciously thought that her husband did not have much money. So when she introduced him to her parents, she said that her husband was just an ordinary person.

She had never asked her husband whether he had savings or not, but it was not Alice’s fault. She was just afraid that asking her husband for his savings would hurt his self-esteem.

Alice was very attentive to her husband.

Out of the blue one day, her father gave her a sum of money.

He told his daughter, “If you really love him, then go and work hard. This is all the money that I’ve saved over the years. Buy a BMW three-series, and I think your mother will approve of him.”

Looking at her father, Alice could not help but feel touched. She did not expect her father to be so supportive of them.

She immediately assured her father that she would not only work hard but continue to push Thomson as well.

This made her father very satisfied.

Although her father gave her 30,000 dollars, they were still lack of another 10,000 dollars to buy a BMW three-series.

Then, she saw an article about a show, the one they were currently participating in. It stated that regardless of whether they could advance or not, there would be a reward of 10,000 dollars. Upon seeing this, Alice was so excited that she immediately registered them with the show.

She thought that with the show’s prize money and the money that her father had given her, she could definitely buy a BMW three-series by then. 

It may not be a luxury car, but it should be enough to appease her mother.

However, Thomson was completely unaware of all of this because Alice took everything on herself. She felt that telling Thomson about all of this would only add to her worries.

She thought she might as well work hard and solve it herself, which brought them to their current situation.

..

“Does everyone understand?”

The host’s voice rang out again.

The other contestants in the show all nodded, indicating that they understood.

However, Thomson was very immersed in his thoughts at this moment. He was thinking about why his wife would want to participate in this program, what kind of difficulties was she encountering, or what kind of situation she was in for her to need money so urgently?

Most importantly, why did Alice not tell him?

If Alice had told him, there would be no need for them to participate in this show.

Just a random item from his collection would be enough to keep the both of them comfortable for the rest of their lives.

Nevertheless, Thomson had no intention of giving up now that he was on the show. 

After all, his wife had high expectations of him. Since he did not want to ruin Alice’s mood, he decided to take part in the show.

However, he did not want to expose his identity either, so he decided not to call when he went on stage.

He could just pass the time and get 10,000 dollars.

If he really could not get it, he could just buy himself a lottery ticket, or he could buy funds or bonds and make a lot of money.

Was that not a perfect solution?

At the thought of this, Thomson laughed happily.

He was still tooting his own horn in his mind. ‘I’m really a genius. I am the richest person in the world.’

Then, the host’s shout broke Thomson’s train of thought.

“The competition is about to begin. Everyone, please follow me.”

“I’ll take you to the stage.”

The host shouted and then walked out of the room.

With that, Thomson and the others followed the host and walked out.

Thomson, though, was a little angry at the host for interrupting his beautiful fantasy. He made a mental note that he would make a phone call after this competition and ban this host from this industry.

‘How dare he break my train of thought. I’ll make sure he can never survive in this world.’

“I’m so angry.”

Thomson kept cursing, but his footsteps did not falter.
