Unknown, unknown, unknown.Gah! What kind of shoddy operation were they running over at Forbes? Their whole purpose in life was to know about rich people, and they didn’t even know where Tanner went to college? Hell, they weren’t even sure about his age. No wonder the owner of Forbes wasn’t even a billionaire…he sucked at his job. They needed to hire better stalkers. Or journalists. Or whatever politically correct term they were going by these days. I did a quick Google searchto make sure that the owner of Forbes really wasn’t a billionaire.Boom.Steve Forbes’ net worth was only $430 million. Million! What a complete and utter loser. The small sum in my bank account started to wander into my thoughts but I kicked it back where it belonged. In the toilet. Because all the money I had would literally fit in a toilet.

Anyway, back to Tanner. The only thing of real value in the whole article was the picture of him. But it was kind of blurry. Classic Forbes. So incompetent.

“Booyah, found a picture of him,” I said.

“For real?” asked Chastity. “I’ve been looking for weeks now and haven’t been able to find a thing. The guy is a ghost on social media.”

“It was on the second search result.”

“Oh, the Forbes one? I never look at that. That website is trash.”

“I know, right?”

We both laughed.

“Send me that real quick,” said Madison. A minute later she turned her laptop for us to see. She’d transferred the picture into MS Paint and sketched a man bun onto him. “Does that look more like Ryder?”

I shook my head. “Uh, not really.”

Chastity lit up. “Boom. That’s proof that Tanner’s not the same person as Ryder. The sex muffin billionaire is mine!”

“I mean…she used MS Paint to draw that,” I said. “Cool your loins, woman.”

“Well right now that’s about the only evidence we have to go on.”

“Then let me get back to work.” I tuned her out and went back to searching. All real estate transactions were public records, so all it took was a few quick searches on the NYC Department of Finance website and I had the names of every person who owned an apartment in One57. Er…kind of. It was more like a list of LLCs that owned apartments in One57. Apparently billionaires weren’t fond of their addresses being publicly available. Steve Forbes, on the other hand, probably didn’t even know what an LLC was. Stupid millionaire. Such a basic bitch.

I almost gave up on the real estate angle, but then I realized that as the official marketers of Rhodes VC, we had just gained access to lots of private files. Including a list of all the businesses they owned. I cross-referenced that list with the list of One57 owners.

“Got him!” I yelled.

“Bullshit,” said Chastity.

“Tanner Rhodes is the proud owner of apartment 89 at One57. Which means he’s my stalker.”

“Or it means that they’re twins and Tanner’s been kind enough to buy his little brother a baller-ass apartment.”
