Chapter 1 I listed my old books on LetGo and messed up , accidentally adding a few extra zeros to the price . In the next second , a system notification popped up . Your item has been sold for 300,000 dollars . Slack jawed , I tried to contact the buyer , hoping he would apply for a refund . Then I saw who he was Shaun Chapman , the heir to the Chapman . family , the top family in Washington , D. He asked me with grief , Do you have any other Mona Beckers belongings ? Name your price . Ill pay whatever you want . She was my late wife . Before moving , I cleaned out the bookshelf and found a bunch of SAT prep books . Figuring they were still worth something , I listed them on a secondhand platform for 30 dollars . Arnold Tate laughed at me , saying I was obsessed with money . Theyve revised the textbooks already , OK ? These belong to the recycling station . 30 dollars ? Are you serious ? e do ou I retorted . They represent my youth . Selling them cheap feels like disrespecting them . But honestly , I didnt have much hope . It had been seven years since I graduated from college and a whole decade since I took the SAT . The textbooks had been revised multiple times , and maybe Arnold was right the recycling station was where they truly belonged . To my surprise , within three minutes , I received a notification telling me my books had been sold . Overjoyed , I opened the app . The next second , I was slack jawed , rubbing my eyes hard . 300,000 dollars ? What the heck ? Did I set the currency wrong ? As I checked my other listings , I saw the dollar sign right there . Suddenly , it occurred to me that when I was setting the price , I seemed to have entered a few extra zeros . And I hadnt even noticed . Perhaps the buyer hadnt checked the price either . I was so bitter . Seriously , who buys something without checking the price ? How could someone not notice the difference between 30 dollars and 300,000 dollars ? How could someone this stupid actually have 300,000 dollars in his account ? a to pojdies Life was so unfair ! Clenching my fists , I took a few deep breaths to calm down . Then I opened the chat on LetGo and sent the buyer a smiling emoji . I set the price wrong . You should request a refund . The buyer replied instantly . Wrong ? What do you mean ? Do you think I should pay more ? Fine . How much ? Had the world gone crazy ? Or had the dollar suddenly lost its value ? It was 300,000 dollars , and I was supposed to ask for more ? Was this guy even speaking English ? I clicked on the buyers profile . His picture was blank , but in the bio section , I saw two all too familiar words : Shaun Chapman . My heart started pounding like crazy .
