With that, Kendall heaved a sigh and went on. But even when your father was a young man, foreign trade carried out by domestic entrepreneurs remained largely unchanged from the Tang and Song dynasties, lacking any sophisticated expertise. Meanwhile, Europeans and Americans had mastered cross-border finance to perfection—stocks, futures, oil, gold, private equity funds, hedge funds, venture capital; these were their core trump cards back then.While Asian nations were slaving away manufacturing goods to trade overseas and scrape together profits bit by bit, Western hedge funds flooded Asia with massive hot money, wreaking havoc everywhere. They could trigger financial crises and legally seize the fruits of an Asian country’s labor accumulated over years, even decades, sending its finance, stock market and real estate market crashing down all at once.Back then, the Field Family set their sights on exploiting major domestic clans. When everyone else could only stand by and be victimized

Back then, Kazuki Yamamoto, Japan’s national treasure-level martial arts master, had only acted arrogantly in front of Alan, yet Alan crippled him for life. How could Koichi ever dare to defy Alan?If he upset Alan even slightly and got crippled too, he would have to return to Japan confined to a bed.The woman was utterly stunned to see Koichi suddenly drop to his knees and beg the man for forgiveness. She quickly reached out to pull him back up, speaking angrily, Koichi, have you lost your mind? You’re the most promising young subordinate under Chairman Ito, with an incredibly bright future ahead of you—how can you kneel before some random stranger?Koichi shot out an arm in fury and yanked the woman hard, sending her crashing to the floor. He roared sharply, Insolent! Who told you to speak rudely to Mr. Alan? Get down on your knees and apologize to him at once!The woman tumbled onto the ground with a sharp yelp, her knees stinging fiercely. She whimpered in hurt confusion, Koichi,

Alan had not expected Mia to embrace him openly right in front of Caroline. It seemed his wife’s affection for him had deepened, which was a promising sign.After Mia exchanged a gentle hug with Caroline, she noticed several Hermès shopping bags in Alan’s hands and asked in surprise, Alan, why did you buy so many Hermès items?Alan smiled.

The pieces for Mother are just ordinary allocation merchandise.Mia looked a little distressed. That must have cost you a fortune.Alan laughed. Stop worrying so

When Gilmore once showed off the Rolex Ariana had given him to Alan inside the car, Mia had been sitting in the back seat the whole time.So she knew full well that her father was only putting on a show by asking Alan for a Rolex. What he really wanted was an excuse to openly wear the watch Ariana had gifted him without hiding it.Mia felt a twinge of unease deep down, but when she thought back on the old troubles between her parents and all the grievances her father had endured over the years, she decided to turn a blind eye to the matter.What Mia hadn’t anticipated was that her mother would jump on the bandwagon too, begging Alan to buy her a Rolex as well.She quickly spoke to Ivy, Mom, Rolex watches are designed mostly for men—they wouldn’t suit you at all. If you really love watches, I’ll get you a ladies’ Tissot later.Ivy scoffed dismissively, Don’t try to fool me. That brand’s watches are cheap rubbish; they can’t hold a candle to a Rolex. I want nothing to do with it!Alan c
