Chapter 279 - Clarification

Have you ever been embraced by two comfortable pillows of flesh as you awoke after a night of punishment and pleasure? The morning waking up afterward, embraced in those two soft pillows of the bosom of your lover, is a fresh pleasure in and of itself, and I never really thought I would ever reach a point where I would think of it like this.

Still, I slowly got up, and Victoria groaned as I slowly pried myself from her tight embrace. Her soft flesh was embracing me more tightly as I tried to free myself from their comfortable embrace. My attempts woke her slowly, and her eyes fluttered open, half-lidded, and she gazed upon me with bright, clear blue eyes. The smile on her face grew, then turned into a slight frown as she seemed to remember something and let go of me.

"Everything okay?" I asked slowly, and Victoria sighed.

"Work, I took yesterday off, but I am in the middle of some experiments that I need to check on. They are all pretty important before moving on to human trials, and if they fail, it will delay things by at least half a year while I work on a solution. So I am hoping they go perfectly, but, science, most of the time you have to try a thousand things before you get the right one." Victoria sighed but then smiled in remembrance of something, "So far, though, all signs are pointing to good things." Victoria added, and I grinned.

Not because if things took off for her, I would also make a massive profit, but because I was happy things were working with her experiments. Throughout our years in school, I watched her revel in the joy of new discoveries again and again.

I liked seeing her happy like that, even when we were still in school, and I lay back on the bed as she got out of bed. "Are you going to log in today?" I asked.

"Unless something comes up, yes," Victoria replied, "At this point, I am still in the looking at results phase instead of active investigations. We are testing preinvestigated theories, and my assistants and colleagues can do a majority of the work. Which I pay them for. I am compiling information and reports at this time. More or less just keeping up to date with results and tests, waiting for the final data analysis, and making sure the proper conclusions are taking place and double-checking the statistical data sets to ensure that there is no bullshit going down."

"Mmm, fair enough," I replied, chuckling, "Good thing I understand what you're talking about and not just letting my eyes glaze over." 

Victoria chuckled and smiled and headed for the bathroom, "Seriously, though, we need to get you out of that Inn, and we plan on doing it in the next couple of days. I was talking to Iona and Fidel, and they are both worried. Gloom is as always, but she wants you back too, so we are finishing the quest as quickly as possible. I told Naughty to look into the authorities route the day before yesterday when I told her I would be busy yesterday. We will see what she finds, but I need to shower; I smell like I was enjoying myself too much last night." Victoria finished and disappeared, and I smiled watching her juicy ass go.

It still felt odd how sexual I became after starting the game. 

Instead of saying anything, I slowly got up and stretched, thinking about joining Victoria in the shower before heading to mine. When I got off the bed, though, my legs almost gave out, and then I remembered what had happened last night and felt my face heat. My legs were shaking, and my backdoor was quivering in the memories of the night that passed.

It took me a minute to finally get back to my room, then start to enjoy a hot shower. I groaned under the hot water, and I quickly found my legs steadying as my strength came back. I groaned and let loose, only letting myself bask in it for a bit before washing myself. Then I got out and found a cute pair of yoga pants and a tank top.

I felt the need to move my body, and I put on sneakers before heading to the gym.

When entering, only Gloria was in there, and she was running on a treadmill. I joined her by stepping up onto the one beside hers, and we both began to run in silence. It seemed that Gloria, with her headset on, did not even notice that I had arrived. Instead, she was lost in whatever thoughts or whatever she was listening to.

I let myself go free and slowly picked up the speed, and let myself move. With that movement, my strength seemed to come back, and my body forgot the punishment from last night's exertion. Letting myself slip into thoughts about the audit currently ongoing for my company.

I was not sure what I was going to do if my friends or those whom I trusted to do right by me were actually exploiting me. But those numbers were still making me worried, and I realized I hadn't checked on progress lately.

"Daddy," I suddenly heard taking me out of my business thoughts and I turned to see my daughter looking me up and down and smiled as i was dripping with sweat. "You're starting to take care of yourself again, that is good to see," Gloria said, looking at my expended form.

"Thanks, I guess," I replied with a soft smile.

"Wow, Richelle, you look good," Gloria then added, and I felt my face heat as I knew what she was insinuating with those words.

"Okay, what do you want?" I asked as if she was buttering me up to ask for something, and she laughed.

It was an old joke from when I first adopted her, and she grinned as she finished her laugh.

"Did you have to give me that question last night?" Gloria asked, and I shook my head.

"No," I replied, shrugging. "I already told you, I want you to think about it," I said, shrugging again. 

I paused and pursed my lips, "Okay, think about it like this," I suddenly said, turning to my daughter and motioning for her to follow me. We headed to the kitchen, where Li was thrown off, ready to call us for breakfast, but I sat down and continued, "There are many millionaires and billionaires, Gloria," I began.

"Yeah," She said, "Many of them do random things."

"Yeah, and think of some of the more well-known ones, Drumph, Trusk, Bozo, and many more. Their parents gave many a large sum to start their companies, and then they somehow magically flew up in networth," I said, and my daughter nodded. 

"Yeah, there are like a few hundred of them," Gloria said, and I nodded.

"Exactly, I did not come from those origins, but I will tell you why many of those people went on to succeed," I said as we began to eat breakfast, which Victoria joined us for. However, she was eating quickly, while Li and Gabby seemed interested in what I was talking about.

"Why is that?" Gloria asked, curious.

"People like that are allowed to fail, unlike what I was doing."

"Huh?" I got three of them: one from Gloria, one from Gabby, and one from Li.

Victoria rolled her eyes, and she chuckled, "They have their parents' money," Victoria loudly said, "Even if they fail, mommy and Daddy are going to bail them out. It would hurt their reputation if they didn't," Victoria noted.

"Exactly," I said, and Gloria flushed along with Li and Gabby. "You can fail, in fact, you learn more from failures than successes most times. But the point is the experience. So many of the people in those early experiences failed FUCKING HARD. They lost millions, or their companies even went bankrupt. Some worked and became billionaires, but they lost so much money in the beginning that without their parents' money, they would never have passed in the first place. Or without their parents reassuring investors with their money, no investor would have stuck with them." I chuckled, "I know I wouldn't have for some of those, some of them lost millions for over a decade before they panned out. I mean, seriously, those investors were not sticking around because little Johnny's idea was so brilliant; it was because the investment wasn't in little Johnny, it was in their parents, and the network it was worth. It was access to the people behind their money, and in the future, if you want to go into business," I stopped, and Gloria looked enlightened.

"It means access to you, and that is worth more money than I would think," Gloria said, and I snapped my fingers.

"Exactly," I said and grinned, "That is one of the reasons I want you to think because you are my adopted daughter and you should know better already. We have had conversations about things like this, although I have not been as explicit as I am now. With you now in school, people who know you are adopted by me will reach out, and those people are also the ones you want to network with." I finished.

"Why?" Gloria asked.

"Because that means Mommy and Daddy have connections and know that you have connections to me, which means," I began.

"That they have connections worth mentioning," Gloria said.

"Yup, although all of this brings me back to the question I gave you last night," I said, "What do you want to do?" I asked, "Because now is the time to consider that. Now is the time to decide what you might want to do with your life, and why I told you to network. Because now is the best time to accumulate them." I finished my morning rant and left Gloria even deeper in thought.

"But yeah, that is why I had to ask the question, although I have hinted at it in the past," I told her, and Gloria nodded, lost in thought.

"Well, now that you have tormented your daughter further," Victoria said, glaring at me, and I tried to give her an innocent look. "I have to go, I need to get to work," Victoria said and half ran out of the kitchen.

"Gloria, are you staying the night again?" I asked.

"No, I am going back to the dorm, I am going to log in, then do some homework. Then think, I guess," Gloria said. "Also, Daddy, I am happy you told me about this," She said, motioning at my current get-up, and I smiled with a faint blush.

An hour later, after a shower, she headed out, and I sighed and washed up myself after wishing her farewell, and then moved to log back in.

I hoped that I would leave the inn soon.
