Meanwhile, back in the Diamond Business Tower in New York, Willy was busy handling a variety of business matters when Mia Morgan called him.
"Boss! I have something to request!"
"What is it, Mia Morgan?"
"Boss, Willy Manufacturing now needs office space. Could I arrange for the team to move into your business tower?"
"Of course! That’s my oversight! Currently, floors 20 through 39 are vacant in the Diamond Business Tower. Would those 20 floors work for you?"
"Boss, we don’t need that much space. Just floors 30 through 39 will be more than enough. Initially, our team in New York won’t be that large. Once we launch our magnetic levitation vehicles and break into the global market, we’ll need more people. Then we’ll fully utilize those 10 flo

"We’ve acquired 47% of XH Construction, 49% of XH Agriculture, and 44% of XH Livestock," Ava reported."Continue tomorrow.""Boss, since we haven't fully completed the acquisitions yet, the shares are still scattered across different company accounts. Once we finish tomorrow, we'll consolidate everything and transfer them to your name.""That works. I’ll be expecting good news tomorrow," Willy replied, already devising a plan in his mind.Willy knew that Washington’s Four Great Families had made their fortunes through online finance, investments, and e-commerce. With the ongoing economic crisis, their businesses were shrinking dramatically, with many losing their foundational financial resources. This was the perfect opportunity for Willy to break into Washington, and especially after The Chopin Family had the audacity to target Violet, his woman. Willy’s personality didn’t allow for slights, and he was determined to systematically dismantle

While Willy was eating dinner, his phone buzzed with a message from Brandon, who informed him that the family debts had been fully repaid and expressed his gratitude for Willy’s help. Brandon also asked when he should head to New York to assist Willy with his work."Brandon, take a few more days to care for your parents. We’ve got the class reunion next Sunday, so come after that.""Got it, Willy. I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for my family.""Don’t mention it. Just focus on taking care of your parents!""Yes, sir! Your loyal servant obeys! Hahaha!"As soon as Willy hung up, Tian’s call came in next."Hey, Tian!""Hahahaha, Willy! You have no idea! Guess who showed up at my house again today? That unlucky idiot Roman!""Isn’t he still in the hospital? Why was he at your place? Is his leg healed?""He came hobbling in on crutches!

The next day, Willy woke up late. He didn’t know why, but lately, he had been feeling particularly sleepy, and it seemed like he had even grown a little taller. After admiring the upgraded system, he explored the new “System Space,” which was essentially a blank void where he could store items, and then rushed off to work.When he arrived at the office, Ava had already led the team to finalize the full acquisition of Washington’s Garcia Family assets."Boss, we’ve now acquired 57% of XH Construction, 54% of XH Agriculture, and 54% of XH Livestock. Should we continue?" Ava reported."How much of the funding is left?" Willy asked."After the acquisitions, we still have 76 billion left," Ava replied."Keep going then. Use the remaining funds. But I’m curious—why are these stocks still dropping?" Willy wondered, puzzled. His team had poured over 200 billion into the acquisitions, yet the stock prices continued to decline."Boss, it’s because of

“Willy! My mother’s family business has been acquired by someone. The Garcia Family is no longer one of Washington's four major families!” Violet said while having lunch with Willy.“Yeah, I know,” Willy responded casually.“Ugh, life is unpredictable.”“Do you have any strong feelings about the Garcia Family?” Willy asked.“Feelings? Not really. When I was little, we’d visit Washington to see my grandparents, but my uncles and aunts were rarely home. After my grandparents passed, I hardly ever went back,” Violet explained.“I see. By the way, babe, I’ll be going to Washington on a business trip soon. Would you like to come with me?”“When are you going? You want me to come?” Violet asked, surprised.“Yeah, and if your mom wants to visit, we can bring her along.”“I’ll have to ask my mom about that.&rdqu

"At least it's in the hands of one of our own, better than falling into the hands of outsiders! I approve of what Willy did this time!" Owen said."Wow, Dad, siding with Willy for once!" Tian teased."Watch what you’re saying! That kid’s capabilities, finances, and power are beyond our imagination. He could surpass us, break through the barriers of the Four Great Families, and reach the peak of wealth! Just look at his chip company and his pharmaceutical firm—each of them has made revolutionary breakthroughs.""Ah, that foolish child," Paisley sighed, finally feeling at ease."Mom, Willy also asked if you'd like to go with us to Washington in a few days.""I... I'll think about it," Paisley replied, still grappling with her feelings.Initially, Paisley had mixed emotions, but hearing what Tian said and reflecting on Willy’s actions, she felt more admiration for him. She realized that Willy’s financial prowess wasn’t what moved her—it w

"Young Master, I’m here! What’s wrong?" Andrew rushed in after hearing Willy call for him."It’s not me, it’s her! This... lady! She fainted! Check on her, quickly!" Willy said, pointing to Penelope, who lay unconscious on the floor.Andrew immediately went to Penelope’s side, checked her pulse, and asked Caleb, "Does she have a heart condition? Did you bring her medication?"Caleb, already fumbling through his bag, handed Andrew a bottle of heart pills.Andrew quickly administered the medicine to Penelope and began performing CPR and other emergency procedures."Young Master, this woman’s condition is very serious. In addition to the heart issue, her overall health is extremely poor. She seems malnourished and likely suffers from anxiety," Andrew explained as he continued to treat her."Yes, she’s been through a lot over the years, searching for our son. Ever since we lost him, she’s been riddled with guilt, unable to sleep, and has develop

"Oh, what’s your relationship with Brooks?" Willy asked."Him? Ha! He’s my half-brother. What kind of relationship could we have?""Got it.""Willy... if you really are my son, could you forgive your mom and me for our negligence all these years?" Caleb’s voice quivered, and tears streamed down his face. The sorrow, regret, and heartache from searching endlessly for his lost son for so many years overwhelmed him. Now, his child might be right in front of him. Even if Willy didn’t acknowledge him, Caleb felt some peace knowing his son was alive and well.Willy had built a successful life for himself, launching several companies, and had become a well-known figure. But Caleb didn’t care about the fame or fortune. He only cared if this young man was indeed the son he and Penelope had searched for so desperately. Was he safe? Was he healthy?"Negligence? Ha." Willy didn’t answer directly. To him, this wasn’t just negligence; it felt like an orchestrate

Years of searching, longing, and hoping had finally come to this moment.After what felt like an eternity, Penelope suddenly erupted in tears and joy."My son! I’ve been searching for you for so long! Every night, I dreamed of you. My son!" she cried, her voice filled with emotion."Mom! Don’t cry, you’re still on an IV! Please, don’t cry!" Willy urged, overwhelmed by the flood of motherly love he was feeling for the first time."My son, do you hate me? I wasn’t a good mother. I lost you! I never fulfilled my duties, and you suffered because of it. My poor child! How you must have struggled all these years!"

However, to his surprise, the event was being held in a small theater instead.As Willy and the group entered the venue, they drew the attention of many spectators around them."Is that the new guy from NVMD? Doesn't look like much! Why did NVMD bring so many people this time? Other than Black Wolf and Silver Wing, they actually sent a rookie to make up the numbers.

“Good afternoon, esteemed guests and scientific friends! The afternoon sharing session is about to begin. Today we have eight presentations, and one of them is by Mr. Willy from NVMD, sharing the global treatment plan and formula for skin infectious diseases. I wonder how many of you are looking forward to it! Alright, I won’t say too much, so let's get started! First up, let’s invite Mr. Willy from NVMD to present his medical share!”Willy stood there, holding his notes, pondering for a moment. Wasn’t his presentation supposed to be later, in the second round? Why was he being called up first? It seemed like someone wanted to extract the medicine formula from him directly during his talk. If they couldn't figure it out, they’d probably make trouble for him. But Willy wasn’t afraid of trouble anymore!
