From Idler to Tech Tycoon: Earth

Estello leaned back in his chair, rubbing his hands together before pointing at Jack and Richard.

"Alright, you two," he said, his voice firm but relaxed, "you should settle your belongings on the third floor. Jackie already told me you're planning to go shopping for computers, servers, or... whatever that tech stuff is."

Jack grinned, nodding.

Estello shifted his gaze toward his grandson. "Jackie, the basement is mostly cleared now. Plenty of space, except for the cars, of course. You'll have to make do with what's left."

Jack smirked. "That's more than enough, Grandpa."

Estello let out a satisfied hum. "Good. Tomorrow, I'll transfer some funds to your account."

Jack perked up. "Thanks, Grandpa."

Then, Estello's gaze shifted toward Richard. Unlike his casual demeanor with Jack, this time his eyes were sharp, firm, penetrating.

"And you, Richie," he said, his tone taking on a fatherly weight, "save your money."

Richard hesitated. "I—"

"Save it." Estello repeated, the authority in his voice leaving no room for argument.
