"What business is Mr. Chopin's family involved in?" Willy asked, smoothly transitioning into a business conversation.
"My family's e-commerce business spans globally. We also own Bank of Baihui and Baihui Insurance. In addition, we have numerous financial investment and service companies. Combined, all our businesses generate annual profits exceeding 150 billion. What line of work are you in, Mr. Morgan?" Roman responded confidently.
"Mr. Chopin's family business is quite impressive! That's amazing!" Willy complimented without directly answering the question.
"Well, it’s how we maintain our position as the top family in Washington," Roman boasted.
"Right, well, Aunt Paisley, I've safely brought Violet back. Tomorrow, I'll have my driver pick her up for work. You can rest assured that everything will be taken care of at my place. If there's nothing else, I'll head out now," Willy said, politely taking his leave.
"Alright, Willy.
“The Robinson Family and the Brown Family can each get an additional 10,000 chips per month. That guy upstairs will get 200,000 chips starting next month. Let’s ensure these three are well-supplied first; the rest can wait,” Willy instructed calmly.“Yes, young master,” Logan replied.“How about the pharmaceutical company?” Willy asked.“Young master, Willy Pharma has received over 100,000 global orders, requiring us to produce at least 10 million doses. It’s a huge number! But once production is done, the higher-ups will take them for distribution worldwide. This will cut into our profits,” Logan explained with concern.“Logan, no worries. That’s part of my deal with him. With something this big, do you really think it could be left unsupervised? I handle the production; he handles the distribution. It’s a win-win. And my pricing is already high enough. He won’t mark it u
"Don’t worry, boss! I understand. Ms. Brown is practically the boss lady. We’ll make sure to be respectful!" Logan assured Willy confidently."Alright, I’ll get going. Violet, you stick with Logan today. If you need anything, just call me or come up to the 66th floor.""Got it, Willy! Now go get busy!" Violet playfully stuck out her tongue, acting cute. Willy felt an urge to kiss her, but with so many employees around, and knowing how shy Violet was, he decided against it."Alright, I’m off. Let’s have lunch together.""Sure!"Violet watched as Willy entered the elevator. Logan turned to her and said, "Ms. Brown, today we’re expecting twelve small and medium-sized enterprises from New York and surrounding areas to discuss potential partnerships. Why don’t you join me and observe?""Sure, thanks for the opportunity, Logan!""No need to thank me, Ms. Brown! Please, follow me; I&rsq
"It’s not him! It’s Roman! I’m furious and frustrated—and I feel like I let Willy down!" Violet vented over the phone."Let Willy down? Sis, you didn’t fall for some other guy, did you?" Tian teased."Shut up! No, I told Willy’s team that I wanted to try handling a project on my own, and they agreed. But guess what? Roman sabotaged every single one of my projects, both in the morning and afternoon!" Violet exclaimed, her voice tinged with frustration."Roman? He’s openly competing with Willy now?""Exactly! I was so close to closing deals, but right before the final signatures, the project leaders received calls from The Chopin Family’s representatives in New York, and they backed out! Now, I feel like a complete failure, and I hate Roman for it. This was my first real day of handling business on my own, and I’m already questioning my abilities!""Did you tell Willy about this?" Tian asked."No, I’m too embarrassed.""Sis, do you really think Willy hasn’t figured it out?""You mean he
Willy stared at the photo for a long time, lost in thought, until Eleanor Rodriguez gently reminded him, “Sir, your food is getting cold.”"Yeah, I’ll eat," Willy mumbled, realizing his eyes were misty. The man in the photo might be his biological father, but Willy’s heart was torn. He longed to find his parents, yet he also deeply resented them."Eleanor, what’s the current status of the Morgan family?""Sir, things are a bit complicated in Washington. Brooks, the head of the family, controls all the family’s business assets, with his two daughters as the primary heirs. Mateo, one of Brooks' brothers, only earns his living by working for the family, while Caleb doesn’t seem to be involved with the family business at all.""This Caleb... looks almost identical to me. Does he have any children?""Yes, he has a daughter, just starting college.""The Morgan family is this vast, and there are no male heirs?""That’s correct, sir.""Hmm... I wonder who will inherit all that in the future.
"Willy, I have another project on hand. Want to join me on it?" Willy asked, referring to the magnetic levitation transportation project given by the system."My dear, I heard my brother mention something about the current economic downturn, and that everyone is consolidating their assets. Why are you suddenly starting a new project?" Violet asked, puzzled."I'm very optimistic about it, incredibly optimistic!""What kind of project is it?""It's a new form of transportation, kind of like renewable energy, but not like what we have now.""So, what is it?""Just the latest, most cutting-edge stuff!" Willy chuckled."…"In the afternoon, Willy gathered Mia Morgan and Liam Morgan, instructing them to temporarily set aside their current work. He handed over the new magnetic levitation technology documents from the system to Mia."Mia, I’m giving you this new technology and an additional 40 billion dollars. You a
Roman lay quietly on the hospital bed, one leg in a cast after undergoing surgery. He was asleep, unaware of the visitors gathering around him.Paisley, sitting next to him, wore an exaggerated expression of concern, which made Tian roll his eyes in disbelief."Mom, tone it down a little. You're overdoing it," Tian whispered, trying to control his laughter."What are you talking about? I watched Roman grow up. Now that something like this has happened to him, how could I not feel heartbroken?" Paisley said, trying to feign tears but accidentally letting out a chuckle."Mom, you even laughed out loud!" Tian teased."Ugh, stop it! Your sister will be here any minute, and Everly Chopin is on her way too. When Everly arrives, make sure to behave. My son must never fall short compared to anyone else!""Mom, he's lying in bed. What do you expect me to compete with him on?" Tian responded, still slightly amused.Just as Tia
"Has it really come to this?" Violet asked, worry etched on her face."Sweetheart, if it wasn’t this serious, do you think your Uncle Chopin, who dotes on Roman so much, would have waited so long to come visit him after such a major accident?" Paisley replied.Tian chimed in, "Violet, did you notice anything at Willy’s company that would indicate something’s wrong?""No, Tian, everything at Willy’s company has been going according to plan. In fact, there’s been an increase in small and medium-sized enterprises seeking investment. Willy’s team is becoming even stricter in managing projects. Sometimes, I see projects that initially seem like failures, but after some adjustments by Willy's team, they turn into highly promising opportunities! Willy even mentioned a new project involving a revolutionary transportation system and asked if I wanted to get involved.""A new transportation system? Like green energy?""Exa
"Your father worked until late last night?" Willy asked, concerned."Yes, it’s all because of this virus. The whole world is basically at a standstill, and our family has started operating at a loss," Violet replied with a sigh."I see. But the situation in the country is still manageable, right?" Willy asked, hoping for some optimism."I’m not too sure. I only know that my dad mentioned this skin virus might cause a shake-up among the top families in New York and Washington.""Could it be that serious?""I don’t know. But let's not talk about that now. At the end of the month, I have my graduation ceremony. Will you come to the campus to be with me?" Violet asked, trying to change the subject and lighten the mood."Of course I’ll come! When the love of my life asks, how can I say no?" Willy joked."Stop it! Who said I’d marry you!" Violet blushed, playfully swatting Willy’s arm."Don’t
