"It was alright, I guess. I ran into my ex from college, and seeing her now... honestly, it made me want to gouge my eyes out and stomp on them! I have no idea what I was thinking back then, dating someone like that!" Willy replied, shaking his head.
"Your first love, huh?" Violet asked, her voice tinged with jealousy, though Willy seemed oblivious.
"Yeah, but she never actually liked me. She just used me. During college..." Willy began to recount his experience with his ex-girlfriend, explaining how she took advantage of him. As Violet listened, her anger grew, and she gently touched his stubbled chin, feeling sorry for him.
"That awful woman! How dare she treat you like that! If I ever meet her, I'll give her a good beating!" Violet exclaimed, fuming.
Willy chuckled. "Wow, Violet's turning into quite the fighter now

Cheated No More: The All-in-One System 88: Washington Meeting
Outside the Diamond Business Tower in New York, Willy stood by his office window, lightly tapping the glass with his phone, lost in thought. The faint "tap tap" echoed through the room, as his mood grew heavier. He didn’t really care about what happened to the Morgan Family in Washington 23 years ago. What mattered to him was that his parents had been searching for him for all those years. He still remembered the pictures on Caleb’s phone—his mother holding signs asking for any information on her lost son, his father pulling strings and asking people for help..."Washington," Willy muttered under his breath, his expression hardening.At the New York airport, Willy was taken aback when he saw Violet standing in front of him, looking stunning in a professional business outfit, dragging her suitcase behind her."Violet, wow... That outfit is making it really hard for me to focus. You look so sexy!" Willy teased."Stop it! My mom is right be

"Yes, understood, boss!" Everyone in the room responded in unison."Mr. Morgan, as mentioned earlier, we still have a 13 billion shortfall. How would you like to proceed?""Oh, right. I’ll transfer the funds to Mia. She’ll handle the necessary tasks. Your focus should be on making tangible progress in your operations. I trust that after all your years in Washington, you’ll be able to get the job done.""Thank you, boss, for your trust!" Grayson replied, grateful but anxious."Alright, the meeting’s adjourned!" Willy declared, and everyone began to gather their things, though they all remained seated, waiting for Willy to leave first.Willy noticed their hesitation, smiled, and took Violet’s hand as they left the room.As soon as they stepped out, Violet’s eyes sparkled with admiration. "Willy, you were so cool in there! I thought you’d be all diplomatic, but you totally took charge! That was awesome!

"Boss, most of The Morgan Family’s companies are listed on the stock exchange here in the States, so we’ve been working at night to handle the acquisitions. Today, we investigated The Morgan Family’s three largest companies: MF&T Services, MF&T Networks, and MF&T Data. While their stock prices are low, they cover a large market. We’ve already acquired 10% of their shares, but soon after, we got a call from Morgan Stanley’s headquarters, asking if we were interested in purchasing all of their managed shares in The Morgan Family. We said yes, and they quoted a price of 80 billion USD. I told them I’d check with the boss first. How would you like to proceed?" Ava explained.“Damn, Morgan Stanley? That’s one of the top global investment firms. So, they’re the ones backing The Morgan Family?”“Yes, boss. But they’re abandoning The Morgan Family now because the family has been hemorrhaging mo

Willy sent a WhatsApp message to Ava, first instructing his staff to hold off for a moment, then asking how much was left of the 300 billion yuan he had allocated to the acquisition.“Boss, we still have 190 billion yuan left! But since we’ve already acquired a portion, the remaining shares from Morgan Stanley will be transferred to us once the agreement is signed.”“Hmph! Good thing I was cautious and shaved off that extra 50 billion. Otherwise, we’d have been robbed blind!”“You’re brilliant, boss!”“Hold tight for a bit. I’m betting she’ll call back.”“Haha, no doubt. Right now, the entire global investment market is selling off loss-making assets and shrinking portfolios. This is the time to accumulate gold! In an economic crisis, gold is the safest bet!”Half an hour later, McGee, having calculated the price, barely contained her frus

At W&L Tower in Washington, Brooks was anxiously watching the stock market as the share prices of his family's companies continued to plummet. The worsening economic crisis had him on edge, but he was too afraid to contact Morgan Stanley, the financial backer of The Morgan Family. The global situation was dire, and Morgan Stanley held controlling stakes in nearly 100 top-tier companies worldwide. A poorly handled conversation with them could spell disaster.By 9 p.m., Brooks was still working late at the office, reviewing the reports coming in from subsidiaries around the world. The financial situation was grim. The performance of MF&T Services, MF&T Networks, and MF&T Data was practically at zero. Meanwhile, the maintenance costs and operational expenses for their online infrastructure were astronomical.Without transactions, there were no processing fees, which meant no profits. Worse, the family’s water resources division, a joint venture

“Uh…” Brooks froze at the sound of the man's voice on the other end of the line.“Speak up! You’ve called me multiple times, and now you’re just gonna stay quiet?!”“S-sorry, sorry! Are you Mr. Morgan from Willy Investments?”“Yes, that’s me! Who the hell are you?”“I’m Brooks from Washington’s The Morgan Family. You’ve acquired three of our top global companies, so I wanted to get in touch and see when it might be convenient for me to come to New York and meet with you. You know, to chat. Yeah, to chat.”“Chat about what?! You’re interrupting something important right now! I’m in Washington as we speak! Why didn’t you call during the day? Do you have any idea what I was just doing? I’ll see you at your office tomorrow! Goodnight!” Willy hung up, furious.That idiot really knew how to pick t

"God, Dad! Do you even realize what you just said?!" Aubrey shouted.Her words snapped Brooks back to his senses."I… Daughter! What just happened? What did I say?""You old fool, you just confessed to everything you’ve done!" Willy smirked."I didn’t do anything! I don’t know what you’re talking about, you brat!""Really? You’re shameless beyond belief. You don’t remember? Let me remind you." Willy took out his phone and played the recording, just as he had done before."Why?! Why can’t I, Brooks, have a son? I only have two useless daughters! Even if I had someone kidnap you and throw you away, what difference does it make? It’s been 20 years. The statute of limitations has passed—you can’t do anything!" The audio echoed through the first floor of W&L Tower, Brooks' voice clearly damning himself."You bastard! You tricked me!""Tricked you? H

“Mr. Morgan, please take a seat! I’m Ko, in charge of MF&T Data. This is your seat!” Ko gestured for Willy to take the head seat in the conference room."Thank you. Please, everyone, sit. I’m here today for two reasons. First, I want to get a detailed understanding of the company’s current situation. Second, I plan to consolidate the business operations of the company’s various divisions. I know many of you have been with The Morgan Family for years, so you’ve likely heard Brooks’ outburst just now. Let me be clear—you don’t need to speculate about my identity. All you need to know is that I’m the head of Willy Investments, and I now hold the largest stake in The Morgan Family’s biggest companies.”"Understood, boss!""Good. Let’s talk. What’s the current state of the company?"Just as Willy finished speaking, Brooks, supported by Aubrey, entered th

473: Opportunity Comes to Those Who Create It
Half an hour later, the other two children handed in their papers, and their parents received feedback that the questions were difficult, many were beyond their ability, and there were many advanced questions.Hearing this, the other two parents immediately made the connection to what the teacher supervisor had said earlier about a two-year-old getting perfect scores. They couldn’t believe it, so they quickly entered the classroom to confront the principal and the teacher supervisor."Principal, I think there’s an issue with the exam papers. The papers given to our kids and the ones given to that two-year-old child must have been different. That’s why he could do well, while our kids didn’t!""Yes, we demand to see that child’s paper and compare it!""Alright, I can show you," the principal said, looking slightly impatient. "But I hope you can adjust your mindset. Don't compare your kids to a genius. Otherwise, you’ll o

The principal of New York Experimental Elementary School couldn’t take it any longer and finally spoke up, “Please, parents, maintain silence. The test takers are still answering questions. Please respect the students’ focus and provide a quiet environment. Thank you for your cooperation.”At the sound of the principal’s words, the three parents fell silent, now aware that their chatter might disturb the children.The teacher supervisor escorted Willy and Charles to the office and called in the other two teachers who hadn’t finished for the day.“Riley, Blake, we have just tested a child who finished three subjects in an hour. He’s under three years old, and we might have just found a genius!” the supervisor announced with excitement.“A genius?” Riley and Blake exchanged confused glances before quickly grabbing the papers and starting to grade them.Since the entrance exam papers we

The head teacher and principal knew that someone like Willy, whose every minute was worth millions, couldn’t afford to waste time. So, they quickly arranged for the four children to sit in different corners of the room, with Charles sitting against the wall.The small chair was slightly too big for Charles, and he could barely reach the desk, so he ended up standing to take the exam."We have 45 minutes for each paper. The two children who are taking the first-grade test will have 90 minutes, and the three-year grade children will get 135 minutes. We’ll now start distributing the exam materials," the teacher announced.At New York Experimental Elementary School, no student was allowed to bring their own supplies for the entrance exam. All the materials, such as paper and pens, were provided by the school.Charles eagerly grasped his pen with his small hand and began to write.The principal and teacher supervisor couldn’t help but

"You’re laughing! What did you teach him?" Violet exclaimed, still frustrated."What’s wrong?" Willy asked, playing the innocent one."Did you even ask him?" Violet shot back."Ask him about what?""Ah, never mind then! Ugh, our son is so smart. Let’s just go to bed," Violet said, giving in to the situation.After taking a bath, Willy climbed into bed and spoke calmly, "Babe, tomorrow I’m going to contact a few schools for Charles. It’s crucial to act while the iron is hot!""I don’t care! I’m going to sleep! I have a ton of things to deal with tomorrow! Charles is so smart, I don’t need to worry about him anymore!" Violet replied, her tone frustrated. She had been skeptical about Willy teaching their son, but after their little face-off, she realized that her son, not even three years old, was smarter than she had ever expected. As a graduate of New York University, Violet felt deeply embarras

"Spiritual breakdown? What do you mean by that?" Violet asked, confused."From the moment he got in the car after school, he was exhausted, complaining of a headache, and then he just fell asleep—he’s been asleep ever since. You’ve probably experienced the feeling of a headache after spending a day in a noisy environment, right?" Willy responded calmly."He doesn’t understand anything!" Violet said dismissively."You see, Violet, I told you that you don’t understand the child!" Willy said, his tone starting to rise."I understand!" Violet snapped back."Then do you understand his current abilities, knowledge, and level of understanding?" Willy pressed.The discussion was escalating, and it was starting to sound like an argument.Charles woke up and went downstairs to eat. As the elevator doors opened, he overheard his parents arguing about him, and it made him feel a bit helpless."Dad, Mom, can yo

"Do you think Charles still wants to go tomorrow?" Willy asked, his voice soft with concern."Dad, if you and mom really care about me, please don't make me go to any more kindergartens! I'm not on the same level as those kids! Please, I’ll probably live a few decades less if I keep going!" Charles replied, his voice filled with earnestness."Alright, then. Tonight, I’ll talk to your mom. She had shown you a lot of different kindergartens before, some of them even had pools and various activities. Are you really not going to reconsider?" Willy asked, his tone still gentle."No, I’m not reconsidering. If I want to learn something, you can just sign me up for training classes outside. I learn really fast, Dad!" Charles answered decisively."Well then, I understand. But there’s something I want to talk to you about tonight, something I’ve learned today. Can we talk?" Willy asked, clearly wanting to discuss it further."Su

"Ah, Big Shot, I can’t believe I didn’t think of that! But do you think other countries might oppose this plan if we go ahead with it?" Willy asked, his tone still casual."Big Shot! Since when did you start second-guessing everything? Let them oppose it if they want! They can go find their own planets to live on, modify those planets for themselves, and figure out how to deal with asteroid impacts! We don’t need to worry about them!" Willy said with a confident smirk."Well..." Big Shot seemed hesitant, clearly uncomfortable with the boldness of Willy’s statement."You’re this old, and you’re still worried about saving face? This is the world we live in now. If I can make things happen, then I’m in charge, and everyone has to listen to me!" Willy continued, his voice firm. "Big Shot, you see me? If I decided to sell manure and make money, people would be lining up to do it, finding ways to get creative with it. Why? Bec

"So, Big Shot, what we can do right now is ensure we’re doing well, and let the others wait. And Big Shot, don’t even try to tell me you didn’t know—there was a so-called population reduction plan in the works before! If I hadn’t discovered Will Planet and managed to complete the planetary migration initiative, I think some of your big plans would have already been in progress, right?" Willy said, his voice calm but piercing."How do you know about that?" Big Shot asked, surprised by Willy's knowledge."Just a guess! There have been lots of posts and reports about it online. Every time they appeared, they were quickly deleted. I’m pretty sure if no such plans had been made, those posts wouldn’t have been created, and there wouldn’t be people quickly deleting them. So, this stuff is definitely real—it can’t be fabricated!""Sigh," Big Shot muttered. He realized he couldn’t hide anything fr

"Charles, when did you learn all this?" Willy asked, clearly surprised by his son’s knowledge."Quite a long time ago, I think! I don’t really remember! But now, if I learn more, it should be word problems. I’m really interested in that! Will the teachers teach us word problems today?""Uh... Charles, I’m sorry, but the teachers can’t teach that right now. The other kids here haven’t learned these numbers yet, so they can’t start with word problems. How about you spend some time with the teacher later to go over the numbers and reinforce what you already know?""Well, I guess I’ll accept that," Charles replied with a playful grin.At lunchtime, because of Charles’ presence, Spike added several extra dishes to the already rich menu. Charles ate a small portion, remembering what his father had taught him: to eat balanced meals to ensure proper nutrition. He knew that eating only what he liked could lead
