47: You Shady Person! Liar!

Tian watched Willy Morgan leave the restaurant with his bodyguards and driver. Curious, he quietly followed them. Soon, he saw Willy get into an SSC Tuatara, followed by a Ferrari and two Lamborghini Veneno cars. Tian was taken aback—how could there be someone this wealthy in New York, and yet he didn’t know them?

Back at the restaurant table, Violet glared angrily at her father, Owen, and brother, Tian. Tian felt a bit guilty for the intrusion.

"Excuse me, sir, ma’am... your food is here," the waiter announced as dish after dish was brought to the table.

Owen attempted to speak. "Daughter, I—"

"Father, let’s eat first. I don’t want to argue in public. I’ve always wanted to come to this restaurant, but never had the chance. Now that I’m here, let's not ruin it. Just enjoy the meal," Violet interrupted, clearly holding back her frustrations.

Tian could sense that his sister was hiding something.

After a moment, Tian went to the front desk to ask, "Excuse me, how much was our table's bi

    Paisley returned to the bedroom and saw Owen lying on the bed, scrolling through his phone. She walked over and tugged on his ear."Ouch! What are you doing?" Owen yelped."What do you think I’m doing? Why did you embarrass Violet's friend like that? You let him pay for the meal but didn’t let him eat, then you and Tian had a grand feast with Violet. What does that look like? If word gets out that the head of The Brown Family set up a scam to con an ordinary person out of a 6-million-dollar meal, where would you hide your face?""Well…""And don’t forget—you followed your own daughter with Tian. Don’t you think that’s going too far? You might be Violet's father, but she has the right to make her own friends and live her own life. If people found out, what would the media say? Even if Violet did nothing wrong, your actions could be twisted by the tabloids, painting her as irresponsible. That would be a huge scandal, and no matter what, Violet wouldn’t be able to shake it off. You’ve al

    Willy Morgan and his group arrived at the hotel lobby, passed through security, handed over their invitations, and received their bidding paddles. A hostess led them directly into the venue."Master, many prominent families are here today," Eleanor quietly reminded him."Oh?" Willy replied casually."That over there is Anthony Lee, the heir to the second-ranked Lee Family in New York. Despite his status, he doesn't have a good reputation or much capability, but the Lee Family’s influence remains strong, so many people flatter him.""That gentleman is Hudson Hernandez, heir to the Hernandez Family."Willy nodded again, taking in the information without much reaction.Just then, a familiar voice called out, "I was just talking about you, and here you are! Willy, my brother!""Sebastian!" Willy greeted with a smile as Sebastian Robinson approached."Come on, Willy, let me introduce you to a few people!" Sebastian led him ove

    “Violet, you can’t keep rushing around like this,” Tian scolded gently as they arrived at the venue, though his tone was more concerned than reprimanding. Both Violet and Tian nodded politely to the other attendees, acknowledging the presence of the four prominent families.“I know, big brother,” Violet responded.Hearing a familiar voice, Willy Morgan turned around and was surprised to see Violet.“Violet?”“Willy! You’re here too?” Violet exclaimed with delight. Tian swore he had never seen his sister's eyes sparkle like this before, not since the time he first experienced love. “Yeah, I’m here as well,” Willy responded with a smile.Suddenly, a voice interrupted their pleasant exchange, dripping with disdain. “Ah, birds of a feather, as they say. I always thought the eldest daughter of The Brown Family would at least end up with someone from one of the four major families, or perhaps someone from Washington or Singapore. But no, she chose some ordinary guy,” Aaliyah Miller, who wa

    Violet was fuming inside but managed to keep her composure. Tian leaned over to her and whispered, “We’re representing The Brown Family today, so we’ll make a donation of 50 million. You can make the announcement.”Violet looked at Tian, smiled, and said, “Thanks, brother.”Sitting nearby, Willy Morgan overheard their conversation clearly. He started calculating how much he should donate to avoid looking stingy. After all, that "higher-up" was well aware of his profits from shorting the J-market. He didn’t want to come across as miserly, but at the same time, donating too much would draw unwanted attention.The auctioneer started the donation call, and it kicked off in earnest.“Alright, ladies and gentlemen, the donation bidding starts now. The initial bid is one U.S. dollar!”"One dollar? What can that do? My company, Tianhong Electronics, is pledging 4 million!”"Changyuan Tech pledges 5 million!”"Ludu Garden pledges 8 million!”"Beichuan Travel pledges 10 million!”"Meijin Invest

    Anthony Lee shouted, "Organizers, verify his checks immediately! If the funds aren't there, he's a fraud, issuing fake checks!"Willy retorted sarcastically, "Why don't you put up your own 1.1 billion while you're at it? By the time your sister opened her mouth, your Lee Family's reputation was already gone."Violet, still stunned by what had just happened, couldn't believe that Willy had donated 100 billion dollars on her behalf. That was an unimaginable amount. She quickly did the math: with her monthly allowance of 200,000 dollars, it would take her over 4166 years to save up that kind of money! How could she ever repay this?“Willy is... really something, isn't he?” Tian said in awe.Violet snapped back to reality when Tian called her name. “Yeah, brother, I said hello to him earlier, didn’t you hear?”“No, I didn’t notice until he made that donation! He donated 100 billion in

    At The Brown Family estate:“Mom, Dad, we’re back!” Tian called out, handing his coat to the maid as he and Violet walked into the living room.“Hm, did you win anything at the auction today?” Owen asked casually.“Dad, some major things happened today, and we need to have a serious talk.” Tian sat Violet down on the couch across from their father. Violet was still in a daze—unsure if she was simply overwhelmed with happiness or still trying to process everything that had happened. Paisley noticed her daughter's absent-minded expression and gently tapped her shoulder. “Violet, are you okay?”“She’s still floating in her bubble of happiness!” Tian teased, sipping his tea. “Not as good as the tea at Hunzhi, though.”“Well, of course not! Hunzhi serves premium Da Hong Pao tea that costs millions per ounce. This is just ordinary tea! There&rsqu

    “Old man, what’s going on with you?” Paisley could tell Owen was upset.“What do you mean? I just don’t want Violet associating with someone who’s not serious about her! People like that are only interested in getting close to Violet because they’re after our family’s wealth!”“Owen!!!!” Paisley suddenly shouted, startling Tian, Owen, and even the maids in the room.The maids thought to themselves, *Uh-oh, the mistress is about to explode!*“Dear... you...”“What do you mean ‘you’? Don’t think I don’t see through your little scheme. What’s this nonsense about him wanting our family’s wealth? The Brown Family’s wealth might not even compare to that boy’s fortune! If you’re so rich, why didn’t you donate 100 billion for your daughter? Why didn’t you represent our family’s businesses and donate 900 billion?

    A bracelet-like object appeared on Willy's wrist, slightly lighter than gold with a purple ornament. Willy pressed the ornament, which popped open to reveal a small red, square-shaped medicinal substance. This was the fabled Restoration Ointment. He removed one piece and then pressed the purple ornament back, retrieving another piece.Willy remembered that this substance needed to be diluted with water and could also be mixed with other medicinal ingredients. It seemed like he would need to learn more about herbs. If he could combine the ointment with some health remedies and sell it to the market and hospitals, he’d be raking in gold.As Willy was lost in his thoughts, dreaming of success, his phone rang. Seeing who was calling, he couldn’t help but smile.“Hello, Violet! What a pleasant surprise to hear from you so early!”“Hehe, of course, I wanted to say thank you! By the way, my mom wants to invite you over for dinner today. Are you free?”“I’m free! What time...?”“Come by at 4

Meanwhile, the little prince of the UAE received a message from his parents saying they were on their way, aboard their flying vessel!During dinner, Willy and the others had a simple meal. Then, guided by the system, Willy went to a base on the outskirts of A Country to use the system's check-in feature."System, can’t I check in at NVMD? Why does it have to be in A Country?""Host, you've checked in too many times at NVMD. You won't get anything good from there anymore. I suggest checking in at another country, as what you're after is something that will help you increase your combat power.

    Willy's introduction caused a stir in the crowd. While many were skeptical of the fruit that supposedly restored youth, they didn't doubt the fruit that could boost male vitality as much."Heh, I know you might not believe in the youth-restoring fruit from our company," Willy said with a chuckle. "So, I’ve made a decision. Whoever bids for this fruit today can take it home without paying upfront. After you consume it tonight, come back tomorrow and we’ll all see the results. If it works, you can pay then!"The crowd found Willy's offer reasonable, and the bidding began."Next up, please give your bids for the first item!" the host announced."Let’s start with this natural, self-illuminating deep-sea diamond. There may only be one like it in the world! Starting price: 200 million dollars!""300 million!""500 million!"Before Willy could finish speaking, the crowd began bidding. On one hand, they were showing respect

    "No way! Mine are just superficial things! It’s nothing compared to the wealth accumulated by your great families!" Willy downplayed it.But deep inside, he was absolutely confident. The wealth these four families had accumulated was no match for his own. From his patents to his investments and the market value of the companies he had acquired, nothing compared to what he had built. They were certainly wealthy, but for someone like Willy, whose wealth was enough to rival entire countries, money was no longer a measure of success. Fortunately, Willy remained humble and kept a low profile. Even his past treasures were kept private. The extraterrestrial diamonds and gold he had acquired had simply been quietly broken up and filtered into the market without fanfare.As Willy and Abigail entered the auction hall alongside the members of the four families, all eyes were on them. Many businessmen and representatives from large commercial associations, who had never seen

    The staff entered Willy’s items into the computer system and then proceeded with the evaluation process.By evening, all the evaluators had been unable to assess Willy’s items. Aside from the pearl, no one knew what the other items were. The dragon horn, the reptilian fruits, and even the glowing deep-sea gemstones were impossible to price. In the end, they had no choice but to leave the final determination of their value to Willy.After dinner, Willy was in his room playing video games when a staff member knocked on his door."Mr. Morgan, I apologize, but the evaluation team really couldn’t figure out what the items you submitted for tomorrow’s auction are. So, we’ve decided to auction them off early tomorrow, but you’ll need to personally introduce your items. Is that okay?""And what about the prices?" Willy asked."Mr. Morgan, we trust your integrity. You can set the prices for your items however you wish, an

    When Willy and Abigail found Adrian, he had just finished checking into the hotel."Mr. Morgan, didn’t you say you had work to handle today? Didn’t expect to see you so soon! And who is this?" "This is Abigail, my sister!" "Hello, Adrian!" Abigail greeted him first, knowing who he was. "Hello, hello!" "Adrian, Big Shot gave you permission for this trip. How much did he allocate for you?" "Mr. Morgan, Big Shot has given me full authority for this. He gave me a card, but I don’t know exactly how much is on it. From what Big Shot said, it should be enough to purchase everything at the auction, but I wouldn’t dare to do that, haha. Big Shot gave me a list in advance of the items we need to bid on. Would you like to see it?" Adrian pulled out a carefully printed booklet from his bag, and the items Big Shot wanted to buy were marked in it. Willy flipped through it, and there were indee

    "Willy, what’s going on?" "Abigail, I can’t tolerate employees who sleep on the job. After knowing that it was the headquarters checking the accounts, this person still acted arrogantly. I won’t give them any chances. I’ll have either Logan or Liam handle this matter. Listen up!" Willy immediately called Liam. "Boss!" "Liam, since the person in charge at Water Blue Island was replaced, the new person sent over problematic accounts. I called to inquire, and this person was sleeping. I called three times before they finally answered, and when they picked up, they were just throwing a tantrum. Take some lawyers with you and investigate the account issues. If there’s even a penny of error, I want Yates to be sued!" "Understood, boss! What’s the issue with the accounts?"

    ChapterAbigail picked up the phone that Willy had pushed over to her and dialed the number at the top of the report. After a while, a woman answered."Hello, who’s this?" "Hi, this is Abigail, from Willy’s office." "Who? What 'gail'?" The person in charge of Willy Gold, part of Willy's group, didn’t recognize Abigail’s name, but hearing the mention of Willy’s office line gave her a clue. "I’m Abigail, calling from the headquarters. I wanted to speak with you about the report you submitted. There are two major errors in it that the head office wants to discuss with you." "Wait, you’re saying there are errors in my report?" "Yes, are you at your computer? Please open up the report and check the data on page 28, specifically the special profits. The decimal point is in the wrong place, which has resulted in Willy Gold’s profits being off by a factor of ten. C

    When Willy returned home that evening, he was surprised to find that all the household staff, nannies, and bodyguards had already helped Violet arrange the new luxury goods that had arrived. What surprised him even more was that everyone in the family was already there!"Mom, Dad! Is there some special occasion today? Why is everyone here?" "Hehe, silly son, we couldn’t celebrate your birthday when you were away on a business trip. Now that Violet mentioned the brands were delivering clothes, we figured it’d be a good time for everyone to celebrate your birthday together. Come on, sit down, let’s eat!" "Ah, the day’s already passed, there’s no need for all this! Besides, I really don’t have a habit of celebrating my birthday!" Willy tried to protest, but Violet had already pulled him to the dining table, where the whole family began singing Happy Birthday. Willy closed his eyes, making a silent wish for everyone&rsqu

    The next afternoon, Willy was lounging around at the company when Logan told him, "Boss, the luxury items from LVMH have arrived. They just informed me that they’re on their way to your house now!""Great, I’ll have Eleanor take care of it. I already told Violet yesterday, and we’ve cleared two floors to store all these clothes and such."When Willy contacted Violet, she was busy studying pregnancy knowledge with Eleanor. This being Violet's first pregnancy, she hadn’t experienced many of the common pregnancy symptoms, so she hadn’t really paid attention to some of the important things to watch out for. But with her second pregnancy, especially being twins, things had been tough for her early on. Only in the past couple of months had she felt better, though she still occasionally suffered from nausea or dizziness. The doctor explained that because the time between this pregnancy and her first was too short, her body hadn’t fully reco
