"Mom! I can't get in touch with Willy. He’s not picking up my calls. I'm going to his parents' place first—then we’ll figure out what to do next!"

"Figure out what? You need to have a serious talk with him! You have to apologize, that’s not even up for discussion. You’ve dragged Willy into a huge mess this time. And what really worries me is that we can't reach him not because he’s avoiding you—but maybe because he's already been taken in for questioning!"

"What?! No way! Willy didn’t do anything wrong! How could that happen? Mom, are you saying this because you’ve heard something?"

"No, I haven’t heard anything directly. I overheard your dad and your brother talking—it’s just a possibility. And didn’t Clara say the police went to Willy’s office? The priority right now is finding Willy. Go talk to his mom and figure out how to convince him."

"No, this can't be happening. N

  • 541: The Importance of Willy's Company

    “Willy, I can have him apologize publicly if that’s what you want.”“Big Shot, this isn’t just about apologizing to me. He owes an apology to the entire world. I demand that he stand before the media and clear my name—restore the truth. That’s the bare minimum.”“Willy, Dante has already been stripped of his right to succeed me.”“He was stripped because he made a mistake. But making a mistake means you take responsibility, not just punishment. He caused me massive losses—he needs to face the consequences. Otherwise, I won’t let this go.”“So what exactly do you want, Willy?”“I won’t beat around the bush. I want three things. First, Dante must publicly clarify everything and clear my name. Second, he must face serious legal consequences. Of course, if there are vested interests between you and him, I’ll pretend I didn

  • 540: That Sarcastic Tone of Yours

    "Willy!! You finally showed up! Where are you right now? I need to see you immediately!""I just got back to New York. Big Shot, you free to meet? Or are you still busy investigating my companies?""Can you not be sarcastic with me too? Just tell me where—should I come to you, or are you coming to HQ?""I’ll come to HQ. I’ll be there in a moment.""Alright. I’ll be waiting in my office."Big Shot could barely contain his emotions. Willy had been missing for more than ten days, and in that time, everything had spiraled. Countries were calling daily, media platforms flooded with criticism of NVMD, and demands for compensation were mounting. Worse, the markets were crashing, the NVMD currency had tanked, and the ripple effects had hit everything from housing to international debt. Large swaths of NVMD assets had already been swallowed up by the Four Great Families.It was a disaster. He could only hope Will

  • 539: Water Ability

    Inside a run-down apartment in Los Angeles—"Haha, that was beautifully executed. You made all the transfers as I instructed, right? None of it can be traced back to me?""Relax, Willy. All the capital was moved under the names of people from our Four Great Families. No one will trace it back to you. Once NVMD’s crisis passes, you’ll make a killing. You’ll get your original funds back, and the profits on this round of investments could multiply several times—maybe even tenfold. And the best part? Other than us four, no one on Earth will know the truth: the same person who triggered a global short on NVMD and crashed the world economy is the same guy who got targeted and nearly destroyed by NVMD’s own investigators. That’s some next-level double-edged strategy, man."Willy smirked. "Had no choice, David. Just look at how much Willy’s company lost this time. It’s basically half the company’s total assets.

  • 538: Don’t Disgust Me

    "Violet! Violet!" Penelope burst through the door, visibly shaken. "Did you hear the news? I just heard from outside that Willy's been detained… and they’ve officially charged him!""That’s impossible!" Violet shot up. "Mom, stop listening to that garbage! It’s all rumors. We know the kind of person Willy is. He wouldn’t do anything wrong. We have to trust him!""Violet’s right!" Caleb chimed in from the sofa, scowling. "You’re old enough to think for yourself. If you’d done that before, maybe we wouldn’t be in this mess right now!""Caleb, I was just worried—too worried! I acted out of concern!""And what did that get us? Chaos. You couldn’t even trust Willy? Your own son? You don’t know him by now?""I don’t know him!" Penelope sobbed. "Willy was away from me for over twenty years. We’ve only had these past three together. I don’t know how he devel

  • 537: This Is Just the Beginning

    "You can't lock me up! I'm the Vice!""You? You're nothing but a pile of crap! Adrian, call an emergency assembly right now—we're voting on how to deal with Dante and the current crisis. Josiah, take him down!"Josiah didn’t hesitate. He didn’t care if Dante was Vice—he only took orders from Willy and Big Shot. And now this man had brought chaos to the public, targeted his commanding officer… the moment Big Shot gave the word, Josiah stepped forward, pinned Dante to the ground, and knocked him out cold."Big Shot, should we start the meeting now?""Right away. No delays!"Big Shot worked straight through the morning, skipping lunch as the full-assembly emergency meeting was convened. The result was swift: Dante was stripped of all titles and immediately held accountable.After all, he was the one who had pushed for the sweeping investigation into all branches of Willy’s company. If the investigation had t

  • 536: I'm About to Lose It

    From the moment Willy announced the global shutdown of Willy's company, Dante had been completely shell-shocked.He had never expected that a businessman could actually shake the entire world. Even more absurd—within a few hours of the announcement, over twenty countries had contacted him or NVMD’s Big Shot directly to issue protests and formal complaints.He had been so certain. So convinced. That Willy had to be hiding something—tax fraud, corruption, financial misconduct—something. But after five full days of intense investigation, not a single speck of dirt had been found.Worse still, the only things they’d uncovered were positive. Willy had personally donated vast sums to fund infrastructure upgrades in small towns and supported social programs out of his own pocket.Meanwhile, the consequences of shutting down Willy’s company were unfolding like a slow-motion disaster.A global e
