The Miracle Card worked in a rather straightforward way. On its flip side were multiple layers of a special coating. Each time it was retrieved, a layer would be peeled off to reveal a new phone number. This would be Gerald's latest contact information

This system seemed to have no safeguards, yet it topped any high-tech security system. Only two people in the world could process the card for its next use-Felix and Gerald. They practiced the same unique technique, which was the only method to remove the coating.

By now, the little boy had arrived at the entrance of Luxe Dining. He held the Miracle Card in his hands. The previous coating had already been peeled off by Felix, thus making it ready for use.

The boy hastily stopped a heavily bejeweled woman and asked, "Excuse me, ma'am. Would you like to buy this?"

Disgust instantly clouded her face.

"Go away! Where on earth did this little beggar come from? How useless can the security be at Luxe Dining? How could they let him linger around by the entrance?"

Hearing the commotion, a security guard rushed over and pulled the boy aside without another word.

It wasn't until the lady had entered the restaurant that he warned, "Hey, kid, this is no place for you to loiter. Can you try not to put me in a difficult position?"

The kid nodded in response, then left to stand a bit further away this time.

A few minutes later, a Mercedes S600 pulled over, and out stepped a well-dressed middle-aged man. There was

clear kindness in his features.

In a heartbeat, the child once again rushed ahead to stop him in his path.

"Sir, would you like to buy this?"

Despite being turned down once, he still firmly believed in Felix's words.

"You little brat! Are you seeking trouble?" The guard from earlier was furious. At once, he seized the boy by the neck. However, it only took one glance in their direction before the man's interest was piqued. "Let go of him."

Startled, the security guard released the child instantly and returned to his post. He figured the boy must have struck gold and met a kind man this time around.

"Are you selling this to me?"

"Yes, sir. If you are to buy this, you must do as the paper says," stated the little boy earnestly.
