2024-10-20 09:00:55Outside the Diamond Business Tower in New York, Willy stood by his office window, lightly tapping the glass with his phone, lost in thought. The faint "tap tap" echoed through the room, as his mood grew heavier. He didn’t really care about what happened to the Morgan Family in Washington 23 years ago. What mattered to him was that his parents had been searching for him for all those years. He still remembered the pictures on Caleb’s phone—his mother holding signs asking for any information on her lost son, his father pulling strings and asking people for help...
"Washington," Willy muttered under his breath, his expression hardening.
At the New York airport, Willy was taken aback when he saw Violet standing in front of him, looking stunning in a professional business outfit, dragging her suitcase behind her.
"Violet, wow... That outfit is making it really hard for me to focus. You look so sexy!" Willy teased.
"Stop it! My mom is right be

"Yes, understood, boss!" Everyone in the room responded in unison."Mr. Morgan, as mentioned earlier, we still have a 13 billion shortfall. How would you like to proceed?""Oh, right. I’ll transfer the funds to Mia. She’ll handle the necessary tasks. Your focus should be on making tangible progress in your operations. I trust that after all your years in Washington, you’ll be able to get the job done.""Thank you, boss, for your trust!" Grayson replied, grateful but anxious."Alright, the meeting’s adjourned!" Willy declared, and everyone began to gather their things, though they all remained seated, waiting for Willy to leave first.Willy noticed their hesitation, smiled, and took Violet’s hand as they left the room.As soon as they stepped out, Violet’s eyes sparkled with admiration. "Willy, you were so cool in there! I thought you’d be all diplomatic, but you totally took charge! That was awesome!

"Boss, most of The Morgan Family’s companies are listed on the stock exchange here in the States, so we’ve been working at night to handle the acquisitions. Today, we investigated The Morgan Family’s three largest companies: MF&T Services, MF&T Networks, and MF&T Data. While their stock prices are low, they cover a large market. We’ve already acquired 10% of their shares, but soon after, we got a call from Morgan Stanley’s headquarters, asking if we were interested in purchasing all of their managed shares in The Morgan Family. We said yes, and they quoted a price of 80 billion USD. I told them I’d check with the boss first. How would you like to proceed?" Ava explained.“Damn, Morgan Stanley? That’s one of the top global investment firms. So, they’re the ones backing The Morgan Family?”“Yes, boss. But they’re abandoning The Morgan Family now because the family has been hemorrhaging mo

Willy sent a WhatsApp message to Ava, first instructing his staff to hold off for a moment, then asking how much was left of the 300 billion yuan he had allocated to the acquisition.“Boss, we still have 190 billion yuan left! But since we’ve already acquired a portion, the remaining shares from Morgan Stanley will be transferred to us once the agreement is signed.”“Hmph! Good thing I was cautious and shaved off that extra 50 billion. Otherwise, we’d have been robbed blind!”“You’re brilliant, boss!”“Hold tight for a bit. I’m betting she’ll call back.”“Haha, no doubt. Right now, the entire global investment market is selling off loss-making assets and shrinking portfolios. This is the time to accumulate gold! In an economic crisis, gold is the safest bet!”Half an hour later, McGee, having calculated the price, barely contained her frus

At W&L Tower in Washington, Brooks was anxiously watching the stock market as the share prices of his family's companies continued to plummet. The worsening economic crisis had him on edge, but he was too afraid to contact Morgan Stanley, the financial backer of The Morgan Family. The global situation was dire, and Morgan Stanley held controlling stakes in nearly 100 top-tier companies worldwide. A poorly handled conversation with them could spell disaster.By 9 p.m., Brooks was still working late at the office, reviewing the reports coming in from subsidiaries around the world. The financial situation was grim. The performance of MF&T Services, MF&T Networks, and MF&T Data was practically at zero. Meanwhile, the maintenance costs and operational expenses for their online infrastructure were astronomical.Without transactions, there were no processing fees, which meant no profits. Worse, the family’s water resources division, a joint venture

“Uh…” Brooks froze at the sound of the man's voice on the other end of the line.“Speak up! You’ve called me multiple times, and now you’re just gonna stay quiet?!”“S-sorry, sorry! Are you Mr. Morgan from Willy Investments?”“Yes, that’s me! Who the hell are you?”“I’m Brooks from Washington’s The Morgan Family. You’ve acquired three of our top global companies, so I wanted to get in touch and see when it might be convenient for me to come to New York and meet with you. You know, to chat. Yeah, to chat.”“Chat about what?! You’re interrupting something important right now! I’m in Washington as we speak! Why didn’t you call during the day? Do you have any idea what I was just doing? I’ll see you at your office tomorrow! Goodnight!” Willy hung up, furious.That idiot really knew how to pick t

You’re shameless beyond belief. You don’t remember? Let me remind you." Willy took out his phone and played the recording, just as he had done before."Why?! Why can’t I, Brooks, have a son? I only have two useless daughters! Even if I had someone kidnap you and throw you away, what difference does it make? It’s been 20 years. The statute of limitations has passed—you can’t do anything!"

“Mr. Morgan, please take a seat! I’m Ko, in charge of MF&T Data. This is your seat!” Ko gestured for Willy to take the head seat in the conference room."Thank you. Please, everyone, sit. I’m here today for two reasons. First, I want to get a detailed understanding of the company’s current situation. Second, I plan to consolidate the business operations of the company’s various divisions. I know many of you have been with The Morgan Family for years, so you’ve likely heard Brooks’ outburst just now. Let me be clear—you don’t need to speculate about my identity. All you need to know is that I’m the head of Willy Investments, and I now hold the largest stake in The Morgan Family’s biggest companies.”"Understood, boss!""Good. Let’s talk.

“You’re all lying! You… ugh!” Brooks collapsed, fainting from the pressure. Aubrey, already in shock from learning her father had coerced and harassed others, stood frozen. While Brooks hadn’t treated her and Brooklyn well, he was still her father, and the situation unfolding before her left her utterly lost.“Oh, he’s passed out? Not a bad act. Paisley, get some water and splash it on his head. Then call the police!” Willy wasn’t sympathetic at all. He believed that Brooks should pay for the evil he had committed.“Yes, sir!” Paisley was quick to act. Instead of using the bottled water in the meeting room, she grabbed a ceramic cup and filled it with boiling water from the dispenser. She then doused Brooks with it without hesitation. Paisley harbored no mercy for someone like Brooks, especially given her past—almost being forced into marriage herself if not for her aunt’s fierce protection.“Ahhh! It’s burning!” Brooks screamed as he woke up, the hot water jolting him back to consciou

The situation had escalated quickly. Once the live broadcast was over, Willy’s defiant stance had sent a clear message: he wasn’t going to back down. It became evident to the EU that both Willy and NVMD were not ones to be easily dismissed.In response, the smaller EU member states began to panic. They knew that Willy’s economic power could easily crush any small nation, but they also understood the heavy weight behind him — the Four Great Families, NVMD, and now even A Country and G Country were backing him. These small nations felt increasingly powerless. If the entire world rallied behind Willy, how could they possibly stand up against such overwhelming forces?“Y Country, did you see that? We can’t target him anymore! Just a simple test, and we already know how powerful his background is. His technology and weapons, we can’t even handle them! We might as well bow down to him,” Portugal’s representative suggested

The decision by the NVMD Big Shot effectively crushed the already fragile factions within the EU. Dozens of people were online, discussing how to respond to Willy’s company’s announcement. While they were still figuring out a plan, NVMD's official statement about the unilateral supply cut to the EU was already released.Not long after NVMD's news broke, A Country also issued a statement, condemning the EU's actions and announcing their strong sanctions and protests.Upon seeing A Country's statement, NVMD's Big Shot was satisfied. He had personally helped push this young figure up the ranks, and now he was stepping up in a critical moment.Meanwhile, J Country’s representative, unsure of how to respond, simply announced that they were injured again and would be returning home to recover.The EU members were stunned. They had thought they could sanction Willy's company and NVMD because they had more allies, but now A Country had sided wit

"Yes, it's true, Willy. Do you remember the doctor who treated my grandfather the day he was cured? After you suggested that my grandfather's illness might have been man-made, the doctor seemed to go crazy. That’s when I suspected something was wrong and had him taken away and interrogated. It turns out that the four major families have enough wealth and power to control everything. These people can’t directly affect our economy, so they resorted to other methods to harm us. My grandfather was one victim, and Betty’s mother was another. She was poisoned during a vacation and aged rapidly overnight. After that, she disappeared from public view. That’s why, at the auction, Betty was so desperate to buy the purple fruit—it was her only way of leaving in a hurry!""Unbelievable!!""Willy, you need to be careful because most of your companies are in NVMD, and you have the Big Shot behind you.

After reviewing all the emails and quickly tallying up the numbers, Willy found that many of his companies in Europe were already facing severe sanctions. Channels had been severed, and nearly every company's accounts had been frozen. He conducted a quick check—postal services, aviation, pharmaceuticals, environmental protection, investments, and securities—all the major sectors, including companies with a market value close to ten trillion, had been sanctioned.Willy wasn’t in a hurry. This was just the beginning. He had plenty of time to play.Seeing Violet still working with the calculator, Willy casually listed all the companies in his industry and their connections on a piece of paper, before making a phone call.

These three are the recent Galaxy Chips approval documents and reports. These others are the performance analysis reports for the first half of the year, and these are the import-export statements, all needing your signature!"Willy, who had been focused on his computer, didn’t respond immediately.

She tried to react, but before she could even comprehend the situation, a series of blinding light points came at her with lightning speed, striking her down."No!!!" Duresha screamed as Willy's Precision Light Gun hit her repeatedly. Each shot caused an explosion upon impact, and she was blasted to pieces by the force.Willy stood in shock, bewildered by what had just happened. He had been battling the fiery sword, and somehow, in the midst of it all, he had accidentally killed Duresha."Hehehe, young one, the fates have their way," a deep, ancient voice echoed through the universe, sending a chill down Willy's spine.
