The Car Got Scribbled On

“Waahhh! Mommy, please stop hitting me!” The child was bawling, his cries filled with anguish as his mother’s slaps landed on his bottom.

“You made a huge mistake! Do you realize how expensive this car is? How could you be so careless!” The woman’s scolding left the child too scared to say anything, his tears streaming down his face.

“Sir, I’m really sorry. Look at this car… How can we compensate you? It’s my fault! I wasn’t watching my child closely enough! I’m so sorry!” The woman apologized repeatedly, visibly shaken by the situation.

Willy Morgan sighed in resignation. He knew that everyone living in this area was struggling financially. Forcing a poor person to sell their home or land to cover the repair costs of his car would be pushing them into a desperate situation, something he didn’t want to do.

Willy asked the system in his mind, “System, does this car have insurance?”

“The items provided to the host by the system come with a full package, including the highest level of insurance coverage!”

Feeling relieved, Willy Morgan walked over to the child and helped him to his feet. “Kid, your parents work hard to raise you. You shouldn’t go around damaging other people’s property, okay?”

“I know… I was wrong. I’m sorry, sir!” The child sobbed as he apologized to Willy.

“If you’re still upset, sir, you can hit the child. Just… please don’t hurt him too badly,” the woman said, clearly torn between her guilt and her maternal instinct to protect her child.

“Ma’am, what are you saying? The kid made a mistake, and it’s enough to teach him a lesson so he doesn’t repeat it. Hitting him won’t solve anything. If he doesn’t learn his lesson, he’ll just make the same mistake again.”

“Yes, yes, you’re right, sir. But about the car… How much do we owe you?”

Willy looked at the drawings on his car and then at the pen in the child’s hand.

“Little friend, you drew on my car, so to punish you, I’m going to use your pen to draw all those clouds and flowers you put on my car right on your face. Do you agree?” Willy said kindly.

The child looked uncertainly at his mother.

The woman nodded vigorously, and the child handed the pen to Willy. Willy took the pen and began drawing on the child’s face.

After a while, the child’s face was covered in a messy mix of doodles, which made everyone around burst into laughter. The child tried to find a place to see his reflection, so Willy picked him up and showed him his face in the car window.

“That looks terrible!”

“So, you realize how bad it looks, right? You shouldn’t do that again, understand?”

“Yeah, I won’t do it again. I’ll be good!”

“That’s good. Now go home with your mom!” Willy’s words surprised both the woman and the onlookers.

“Your car’s in such a state, and you’re just letting them go?” one bystander asked.

“The kid made a mistake, and I’ve already punished him. I don’t know how much it’ll cost to fix the car, but there’s no point in making things harder for a single mom. That’s enough; you all should go home. I’ve got other things to take care of.”

“Sir, you… you’re a good person! Thank you!” The woman bowed deeply to Willy Morgan, who waved it off, got into his car, and drove away.

As he left the neighborhood, Willy got out to take another look at the damage to his car, feeling a pang of heartache. He pulled out his phone and called the Ferrari store. After learning that the car could be repaired, Willy scheduled an appointment to bring it in at 3 p.m. He then got back in his car and set off to find a lottery shop!

As he drove around, searching for a lottery outlet, the system’s voice suddenly chimed in his mind.

“Ding! Host handled the situation with care and has been awarded one lottery draw. Would you like to draw now?”

Hearing the system’s words, Willy Morgan felt much better.

“Not now! I’ll do it later.”

Right now, the most important thing wasn’t the lottery draw or even fixing the car—it was buying the lottery ticket and upgrading the system!

Willy Morgan found a lottery shop on Central Avenue in downtown Los Angeles. He walked in and handed over a piece of paper with the numbers he had written down.

“Sir, I’d like to play this set of numbers 200 times. Make sure you get it right!”

“200 times? You must be feeling lucky, huh?” The shop owner smiled and shook his head, clearly skeptical that Willy could win.

“My luck’s been really good lately!” Willy Morgan said confidently. After receiving his ticket, he carefully tucked it into his phone case and walked out.

Outside the shop, Willy took out the lottery ticket and studied it for a while, though he couldn’t really tell what made it special. He glanced at his phone—it was a second-hand phone he’d bought four years ago, when he had just started college. The camera’s resolution was barely passable. It was definitely time for an upgrade!

He floored the gas pedal and drove to a nearby mall, heading straight into the Apple store.

“Hello, sir. What can I help you with today?”

“I’d like to buy a new phone.”

“Are you looking for the latest iPhone flagship model?”

“Yes, that one, and I’d also like a tablet.”

“Certainly, sir. Please wait a moment.”

Soon, Willy Morgan had his winning lottery ticket tucked into the case of his brand-new iPhone. He checked his account balance—he still had over $800 left—and then headed to the Ferrari store.

The Ferrari store was unfamiliar territory for Willy. He parked his car outside and made a phone call. Shortly after, a service representative came out to collect his keys. Before they left, Willy asked about the repair costs. The staff assured him that since the car was insured, there would be no charges, and they would contact him once the repairs were complete.

With his new phone and tablet in hand, Willy hailed a cab and returned to his small apartment. His phone suddenly rang, catching him off guard.

“Hello?”

“Willy! What have you been up to lately?” It was Brandon Rogers, one of Willy Morgan’s college roommates.

“Not much, just chilling.”

“Are you working? We’re getting together tonight for dinner at that barbecue place outside campus! The guys just got paid and want to treat us to a meal. You’ve got to come! It’s been ages since we all hung out together!”

“Sure thing! What time?”

“6:30 p.m. See you tonight!”

Willy hung up the phone, feeling genuinely happy. During his four years of college, the only people who had never looked down on him and even helped him out were his three roommates. Willy was the kind of person who valued loyalty, and he was determined to bring his three friends along when he made it big in the future!

“System! You mentioned there was a lottery draw. What’s that about?”

“Host handled the situation very well and was rewarded with an additional lottery draw. Would you like to draw now?”

    “Draw the prize immediately!” Willy Morgan made his choice without hesitation. Suddenly, six gift box-like objects appeared in his mind, each one a different color and pattern. The first box had an image of some papers, the second had a drill, the third a cup of tea, the fourth a triangle, the fifth looked like a fruit, and the last one resembled a shirt.“System, what are these?” Willy Morgan asked.“Host, the system cannot disclose the contents.

    Over the weekend, Willy Morgan drove back to his old, run-down apartment, packed his belongings, and officially moved out. Standing in his now-empty room, Willy felt a wave of nostalgia. This place held so many memories—from moving out of the orphanage to working through his college years. Despite its shabby state, it had been home. Unable to completely let go, Willy spent $100,000 to buy the small unit so he could return and reminisce whenever he wanted.On Monday at noon, before Willy had a chance to visit Orion Universal Group, he received a call from Heather Collins."Mr. Morgan, our team went to Tianwen Community as planned.

    Amidst the laughter and cheerful atmosphere, lunchtime arrived!In addition to the basic seafood, Willy specifically instructed the chef to prepare a few mild dishes for the ladies. Violet loved seafood, but she knew she couldn't indulge right now, so she nibbled on some of the vegetables the chef made while eyeing the seafood spread, imagining herself enjoying it."Violet, once you’ve had the baby, you can eat anything you want. I’ll get you a team of chefs to cook a different meal every day!" Willy promised."Don’t! After I give birth, I want to be a sexy mom! If I can breastfeed, I’ll do it myself.

Willy couldn't help but praise her.Hearing Willy's compliment, Violet finally relaxed a little."Willy, Violet never wears bikinis. She usually wears those weird swimsuits that wrap her up like a dumpling! But this time, she's really gathered the courage to try one! Violet's belly's pointy, I think it’s a boy!" Peyton teased."Peyton, you're paying attention to this?" Willy chuckled."I’ve heard, if the belly's pointy, it’s usually a boy, and if it’s round, it’s a girl. Not sure if it’s true, but it's an old tradition, so it might be accurate! You better get ready to be a dad! But listen, when Violet has the baby, you can’t just focus on the kid and neglect her.

    Breakfast was light, and by the time everyone woke up, it was nearly noon. They casually ate a bit, then quickly changed into swimwear. Some relaxed in the sun, some swam, and others took photos."Willy, how much did this island cost you?" Owen asked casually."This island was part of a business deal. The funds came from other partners," Willy explained."Oh, so an island like this must have cost hundreds of billions, right?""Yeah, but there are smaller islands that can be a lot cheaper. The environment might not be as great, though. I was surprised when I first came here. This island is huge, with an airport, a dock, and plenty of amusement facilities. If you like it, you can stay here long-term.""That depends on whether Tian can behave! By the way, Willy, have you received the invitation?""Invitation?

Even though it was night, they still wanted to look good. They all climbed aboard the open-top bus on Wonder Island."So refreshing! This sea breeze is making my heart flutter! Hahaha!

    Willy stood up, turned around, and pretended to be looking at the documents on his computer. From the reflection in the nearby mirror, he caught a glimpse of Violet’s somewhat downcast expression. It was understandable, though. This was the first time Willy was celebrating her birthday with her, and Violet had never mentioned her birthday to him. She didn’t even know when Willy’s own birthday was. If she brought it up and suddenly realized Willy's birthday had already passed, wouldn’t that be awkward? Violet thought for a moment and realized she might be overthinking it. After all, it was just a birthday. If they didn’t celebrate it, it didn’t matter. Living with Willy every day already felt like celebrating her birthday. It was like every day with him was "Babe Day."Around 5 PM, Maverick drove the business vehicle, carrying Violet and Willy to New York’s T7 terminal. T7 was a special passage exclusively for private flights. Before a

Apart from the familiar names like Willy Tian Investment, Willy Pharmaceuticals, Willy Manufacturing, Galaxy Chips, Microsoft, LV M H, Global Airlines, and other well-known companies, he was surprised to see dozens of listed companies on the list. This left him a bit confused."Logan, I’ve been looking at this subsidiary report you sent over, and I recognize the companies at the beginning – the ones I founded or the ones I’ve acquired. But what are all these twenty-odd companies at the end?
