Chapter 10 Summary: “Hello Lucky Winners”

Instead of telling his parents he’s been selected to go to space, Liam writes his parents a fake letter from the school saying he was selected for a special field trip to the Lakes District for gifted children. On the morning he’s scheduled to leave, Florida arrives at his house, and they get into a limousine as neighbors watch. Inside the limo, Liam and Florida find complimentary gift bags filled with new phones, watches, and more, and Florida feels like a real celebrity. Liam bids his parents only a casual goodbye, which he later regrets when he realizes that he may never see them again.


Both Liam and Florida receive a message on their phone from the head of the company, Dr. Dinah Drax, telling them they’ll soon reach a secret location. She explains that the contest is for fathers, because fathers give a lot to the world (her father gave her the Drax company when she was 12). As they’re driven to the next location, they discuss celebrities, about which Liam and Florida have different views. Soon, they come to a large field with a red Learjet waiting to take them to China.
