2024-11-24 12:00:43Christian answered the call, his hand trembling slightly.
“Hello, Mr. Price! How can I help you?”“Mr. Chopin, I’m calling on behalf of the bank. After reviewing your recent loan application, I regret to inform you that we’re halting further disbursements of the 60 billion loan you were approved for. Additionally, we’ve reassessed the terms and found irregularities in collateral and projected ROI, which necessitate immediate repayment of the advanced funds. You have 30 days to settle the balance.”
Christian’s face went pale.
“Mr. Price, this... this is sudden! We’ve already allocated part of the funds into development. Recalling the loan now would destroy our operations!”“Mr. Chopin, these are orders from the board, and I must follow them. I suggest you look into why several major stakeholders in the industry have distanced themselv

"Willy, Christian from The Chopin Family just called me," Paisley said, her tone laced with a mix of curiosity and disgust. Willy chuckled, already having a sense of what was coming. "Oh? And what did the esteemed Mr. Christian have to say?" "He wants your contact information. He said it’s regarding The Chopin Family's current situation and that he’d like to talk to you directly." Willy leaned back in his chair, a sly smile playing on his lips. "Did he mention why he suddenly felt the need to reach out to me?" "No, he didn’t. But from the way he sounded, it was like his house was on fire. Something must have gone terribly wrong on their end," Paisley replied. "Let me guess—business deals falling apart, banks recalling loans, and every potential partner avoiding them like the plague?" Willy asked, his voice dripping with amusement. "Pretty much sums it up," Paisley

“Christian?”“Yes, Roman’s father. He asked me for your contact information. Said he has some business matters to discuss with you. Willy, what do you think?”“Aunt, just send him my number. Otherwise, I’m afraid he’ll keep bothering you.”“It’s okay. Worst case, I’ll just turn off my phone!”“Hehe, but what about tomorrow? The day after? You can’t keep your phone off forever. Go ahead and send it. Besides, I have some unfinished accounts to settle with The Chopin Family.”“Alright, Willy.”Paisley quickly sent Willy’s number to Roman and, after some thought, immediately blocked Roman. The moment Roman received the contact, he passed it to Christian, who promptly made the call.“Hello, this is Christian, the head of The Chopin Family. Am I speaking with Willy?”“Oh, so it’s The

Christian was rushed to the hospital once again. Everly sat by his bedside, watching her husband and son with a sense of helplessness. "Roman, what happened between you and your father? How did he suddenly collapse?" "It’s all Willy’s fault! If it weren’t for him, Dad wouldn’t have gotten so worked up!" "Willy? Wasn’t your father taking you to apologize to him?" "Yes, we apologized, but that Willy mocked and provoked Dad. In the end, he even wanted to buy out all our company’s shares. Ridiculous!" Hearing this, Everly said nothing further. Ever since her face had been burned, she found herself caring less and less about the world around her. "Dear, wake up! Please wake up!" Everly gently called out beside Christian. After receiving emergency treatment, Christian was fine, though his head still bore visible injuries. He stirred as he heard Everly’s voice. &nbs

Willy listened to Christian’s fluent English with mild approval but didn’t let it distract him from chasing the debt.“Mr. Chopin, let’s pick up the pace. Forty minutes have already passed; you’ve got 1 hour and 20 minutes left. Lawyer, keep a close eye on him—some people like to use their age as an excuse to slack off.”“Yes, boss! I’ll keep everything in check.”“Hmph!” Christian held back his anger, knowing he was in no position to argue.Emily stepped forward with a stack of documents.“Mr. Morgan, I have several agreements that need your signature.

That way, whenever I visit Washington, I can stay close to you and Mia.”When Brooke heard this, she quickly asked, “Mr. Morgan, which villa are you interested in?”“Let me see,” Willy said, looking in the direction Brooke pointed. Among the eight central villas, one stood out: larger than the rest and set apart for extra privacy.

"Really?" "Yes! Hurry up and come out; I don’t have time for jokes!" Rose hesitated but eventually walked out of the estate gate, only to see Willy looking utterly exhausted. "Goodness, how do you even manage this? Just like when you rescued Crescent Moon—you’re always appearing and disappearing like a ghost!" "I have my secrets." "I have mine too." "…Right. Let’s head inside. I need to check what’s going on with Naomi." "Come on, then!" Rose seemed to realize her phrasing was odd but didn’t press further. She led the way through the heavily secured checkpoints, showing her credentials as they went. Willy, meanwhile, underwent a series of thorough security checks before they were allowed to proceed. ---Minutes later, they arrived at the central command room.

“What? No, I don’t like her! She’s just... strong, pretty, and... fine, I guess,” Josiah stammered. Willy smirked, patting Josiah on the shoulder. “If you like her, just admit it. No need to over-explain irrelevant stuff.” As Josiah wrestled with his thoughts, Willy activated his flight device and teleported to Karen Hotel on A Country’s west coast. It was early morning when he arrived. Landing on the hotel rooftop, Willy retracted his flight device and kicked open the locked door leading to the stairwell. He descended via elevator to the 33rd floor, activating his object-tracing ability by touching the elevator button. He tracked Naomi’s movements, quickly pinpointing Room 3308. Willy, unsure if anyone was inside, equipped his battle armor and activated the phase-through-walls f

The force of the blow shattered the man’s ribs and sent his heart into his chest cavity, killing him instantly.Without pausing, Willy swung a punch at another mercenary’s head. Reign, witnessing Willy’s superhuman speed and strength, made the quick decision to flee. But Willy intercepted him in a blink, landing a powerful punch squarely on Reign’s face. The momentum of Reign’s sprint collided with Willy’s fist, and he was knocked unconscious.Willy turned to the groaning Sean, grabbing his arm and twisting it sharply.
