?Chapter 441:


    As they left the restaurant and approached Roderick’s scooter, a man walked towards them holding lottery tickets.


    “Hello, would you like to try a lottery?”


    “No, thanks,” Roderick dismissed him politely.


    But the man persisted. “Come on, give it a shot. Our lottery is backed by a newpany. There’s no charge if you don’t win, and only a small fee if you do.” The man eagerly promoted the lottery ticket. “Plus, you can payter if you win.”


    Roderick looked at Eileen, his eyes filled with a mixture of curiosity and skepticism. “That’s too good to be true! Eileen, does it sound legit?”


    Eileen clutched her purse in one hand, holding a lottery ticket, which she had received from the salesperson, in the other. After scratching off the ticket, she discovered that she hadn’t won any prize.


    “Look, it didn’t cost me a single penny,” she said as she threw the losing ticket into the trash can.


    She was about to reach for another ticket, but the salesperson promptly intervened. “Excuse me, miss, but we are only permitted to issue one ticket per person.”


    “Well, in that case, I’m done here.” Eileen then turned to Roderick and said, “You should give it a try.”


    Roderick selected a ticket and scratched it lightly. Unfamiliar with the process, he couldn’t tell if he’d won.


    The salesperson grabbed the ticket from him, and with a voice shaking with excitement, announced, “Sir, you’ve just won a million dors!”

    Roderick stood there, stunned, unable toprehend the news.


    “Oh my goodness, I’m receiving a ten-thousand-dormission!” The salesperson was thrilled. “Sir, you are incredibly fortunate! If you have a moment, could youe with me to handle the paperwork? Don’t forget to bring proof of identity.”


    “Just a moment…” Roderick, still in disbelief, asked, “Are you serious? How could it possibly be a million?”


    The salesperson stood beside him and exined how to verify the ticket with the winning numbers.


    Watching Roderick’s confused expression brought back memories for Eileen of when he was a child, always tagging along behind her.


    Roderick would believe whatever Eileen said.


    Although he had grown older, his naivety had not changed at all.
