2025-05-31 12:00:27When Violet and Penelope arrived at the Diamond Building, they found the entrance swarmed with reporters, all trying to get a statement. Without saying a word, they quickly got out of the car and rushed inside, heading straight for the elevator.
"Violet! You’re finally here—something's gone wrong!" her personal assistant ran up the moment she saw her.
"What happened? Where’s my darling?"
"I don’t know where Mr. Morgan went! But shareholders from several of the listed companies are blowing up the phones. Some are even threatening to sue him! Our companies in F Nation and J Country have also suffered massive losses—their stock prices are plummeting. We need your input. What should we do?"
"That’s not important right now. I need to see him first. Just tell them I’m unavailable for now and to stay calm!" Violet said decisively as she pulled Penelope along, heading straight to Willy’s office.
But as soon a

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

"Mom, Dad’s just worried about Willy. Don’t be upset, okay? Please take care of yourself first. That’s what Willy cares about the most—your health and Dad’s. Try to eat something, please?""But I regret it so much… I regret it so much!" Penelope broke down again, tears streaming from her eyes.Just then, Violet's phone rang. It was Owen."Dad!""Violet! Has Willy come home yet? I just saw the news—Willy's company has suspended everything! Even Microsoft, LVMH, J Country’s Shobon Conglomerate, Volkswagen—every one of them shut down! Not to mention over a hundred listed companies, all under Willy’s name, all shut down! Violet, has he come home?""Dad… Willy hasn’t come back. Logan called earlier. He said Willy might be… under surveillance.""WHAT?! How… how could this happen?!""Dad, why are you trying to reach Willy?""My dear girl… The Brown Family has dozens of businesses funded directly by Willy. And we’re n
534: Willy's Company Shuts Down
At the Morgen estate, Violet had prepared a full spread of dishes. She, Penelope, and Caleb sat waiting for Willy to return home. They had tried calling him, messaging him on WhatsApp, doing everything they could to get in touch—but Willy remained unreachable. The silence began to gnaw at Violet, feeding her anxiety.Then, just past 11 PM, a public announcement was released by Willy's company.All parent companies, subsidiaries, listed branches, and investment arms would suspend operations for an entire month. During this period, a joint investigation led by Big Shot and Dante would audit every aspect of the enterprise’s internal affairs.The moment Violet saw the notice, she froze. Her face went pale.And then she panicked.She started calling Willy over and over again, desperately dialing his number—but his phone didn’t even ring. Unknown to her, Willy had already restricted all incoming calls to a short list: Logan, Wione
