"Because I've been quite busy personally, and I'm not very familiar with the affairs of the Sloth Gang, I’ll go all in and ask Justin to deal with all the matters in the gang, big or small. Starting from now, Justin is the second-in-command of our gang. Does anyone have any objections?" Edward asked.None of the other members of the Sloth Gang present objected; instead, they all said in unison,"We'll follow the new leader's instructions."Justin was also very surprised; he hadn't expected to be promoted to the second-in-command of the gang so suddenly.He immediately kneeled half-bowed before Edward and said, "Thank you, Boss."Edward smiled and said,"Get up. From now on, we're all like brothers, no need to call me boss or anything like that. Just call me Edward. We'll face difficulties together and share good fortune. The most important thing is that we must be united internally. And, we will never engage in any harmful activities again.""But, Boss—no, I mean Edward," Justin sudde
"By the way, Edward," Mrs. Robinson's voice cut through the air like a blade of intrigue, "are you up for diving back into the world of knowledge?""You mean to further my education?"Edward's face contorted in a bewildered expression, caught off guard by the suddenness of Mrs. Robinson's proposition."Indeed. Just so you know, I happen to hold a seat on the board of the illustrious Ford University, a name that echoes across the globe. If I were to endorse you, your admission would be a surefire bet. I'm aware, dear Edward, that you once put your studies on hold due to your mother's health struggles. Now, you've carved quite a remarkable path for yourself, and your mother's health has taken a turn for the better. The time has come to contemplate your academic journey."Edward weighed the words, finding Mrs. Robinson's offer more than intriguing—learning never grows stale, after all.At this juncture, he was a trader, a trader on the cusp of greatness. Not to mention, he owned a lavish
"Don't worry, Lily, you're the only one in my heart," Edward said with a smile. "I won't be flirting around at the Ford university. You have my words.""Alright, I'll trust you then. Remember to pick me up after work," Lily gave Edward an air kiss and then left.Edward was restless at home, with nothing to do. He hadn't slept all night, and now the urge to sleep hit him. He lay down and soon slipped into a dream. In the dream, a clear voice kept calling his name."Edward, Edward, wake up!"It was a girl's voice. Edward opened his eyes to find Cicci fluttering in front of him. She was as cute as ever, like a flying fairy."Oh, it's you, Cicci. I was busy all night yesterday, really tired. Don't disturb me, let me rest," Edward intended to close his eyes again."No, you're getting up. Have you forgotten your goals? You're meant to become the most promising trader. To do that, you have to keep working hard. Remember, you're just an IB-level trader, still far from being a Supreme trader.
Chapter 92 New Trading Skill"In the realm of the markets, the dance of price movements unfolds much like the migratory pattern of birds.“Just as those feathered travelers journey tirelessly within their designated territory, swooping back and forth in search of sustenance, so do market prices oscillate within a defined range. These undulating motions create a vibrant narrative of their own, akin to the ebb and flow of a gripping plotline in a fantastic webnovel.”Edward was entranced once more by Cicci's eloquence."This is quite a departure from what I had imagined about market oscillations. I'm eager to hear more.""Absolutely, my dear Edward," Cicci responded with a sparkle in their eyes. "As I was explaining, market prices, much like migratory birds, tend to traverse within a certain range, tracing their daily trajectory. “However, just as avian habits are disrupted by external shifts, such as the gradual chill of approaching winter, market conditions also can take a turn for th
Under the watchful eye of his Pride Gang comrades, Edward's stepmother rebounded with astonishing speed after her surgery. When Edward laid eyes on her, he was taken aback by her newfound radiance."Looking good in recovery, Mom," Edward exclaimed joyfully."Indeed, my thanks to your pals. Check me out, I've even put on a few pounds," his stepmother quipped as she gazed at herself in the mirror. "But you, my goodness! You've taken self-care to a whole new level. How did you manage to become so tanned and thin all of a sudden?"With a tender gaze, she scrutinized Edward."No worries, Mom. A man's gotta be a bit sun-kissed and lean to be truly handsome," Edward boasted, flexing the muscles on his arm before her. "In fact, I'm even stronger now.""No," His mother sighed, "You've had a rough time these days, all because my frail body caused you big trouble.""Mom, what are you talking about? We're family, there's no such thing as trouble or burden. It's all part of what I should do," Edwa
With newfound clarity in his mother's eyes, Edward's heart danced with joy."Right this way, Ma’am. Allow me to show you to your presidential suite," Kalina exclaimed enthusiastically.Though Kalina currently held the prestigious position of General Manager at FS Hotel, she had started from the ground up. Before ascending to her role as GM, she had led countless tours of the hotel's suites at the behest of clients. Thus, guiding Edward and his mother through the rooms was a mere piece of cake for her, considering she knew every nook and cranny of the establishment.It was as they stepped into the elevator that Edward failed to notice the fetching young lady seated elegantly on the lobby sofa. This woman, dressed in casual attire, exuded an air of competence that belied her relaxed sportswear. Even so, the slightly loose attire couldn't hide her attractive figure. Undoubtedly, she was a natural beauty, possessing the aura of a potential superstar.Observing every detail unfold, this be
The elevator chimed softly as it came to a halt on the third floor, and the doors glided open. Evelyn stepped out onto the corridor, greeted by a pristine crimson carpet that stretched ahead. The red carpet seemed to extend into the distance, beckoning her towards a realm of violent crimson horrors.Perhaps her own psyche was at play, conjuring up these sensations within her. She played out the scenarios that might unfold ahead in her mind, poised to confront the challenges that lay ahead. Taking a deep breath, she paced herself and moved towards Room 308.Room 308 was one of the FS Hotel's finest presidential suites, a single night's stay costing upwards of tens of thousands of dollars. At this very moment, Kalina was showing Edward and his mother around Room 309.Standing before the door to 308, Evelyn hesitated briefly, but ultimately pressed the doorbell.In a matter of seconds, the door swung open to reveal a woman in her twenties, dressed like a secretary. She wore a low-cut she
Peter's attack on Evelyn's shoulder was like a calculated strike from a dragon's claw, his intention clear: hurl her deep into the room's shadows.Evelyn, not one to be outdone, channeled her vital energy with lightning speed, executing a move called Tai Chi Shake. Peter's assaulting force became but a conduit, flowing through her body and dissipating into the very core of the earth beneath her feet.The maneuver was nothing short of brilliance, morphing Evelyn's body into a sleek, eel-like fluidity. Peter's dragon claw, touted as the apex of grappling techniques, slid off her shoulder like a bead of water, his hand repelled by an unexpected surge of power emanating from Evelyn.As the abruptness left him reeling, the disoriented state worsened as Evelyn's lightning-swift retaliation landed on his face another two resounding Big Slaps that left Peter seeing stars. Those blows were like throwing oil onto the flames of his already escalating rage."I'll end you, you wench!" he roared, c
