In fact, for such a trivial matter, if I just make a call to Claude at the Ritz-Carlton, it can be solved immediately.

After all, he is the spokesperson of the Smith family in Pras City.

Any big shot in Pras City has to show him enough respect.

However, my mother-in-law is really hateful.

Since she believes in Cyril, then let Cyril help!

Some people saw Ivy making a phone call and immediately beamed with joy.

They immediately surrounded her and asked if she had found some powerful big shot to help.

Ivy said proudly to the group of old men and women around her, "Don't worry.

I've invited the eldest young master of the Hardy family to help.

He has great abilities. I'm sure we can get the money back easily!"

Someone exclaimed, "The young master of the Hardy family?

Sister, you're so amazing. How did you manage to find such a powerful person!"

Sister, since you know such an outstanding young talent, why don't you marry your daughter to him?

Instead, you married her to such a good-for-nothing!

Ivy glanced at Allen disdainfully and snorted, "We'll drive this trash out sooner or later!"

Allen didn't say a word and planned to see how Cyril would make a fool of himself when he arrived.

Soon, a black Porsche slowly stopped in front of everyone.

A young man dressed in a suit and looking very handsome stepped out of the car.

Cyril had arrived.

People around exclaimed, "Look, this is what an outstanding young talent is like!

I wonder which girl will be so lucky to marry such a great son-in-law in the future!"

Yeah!

If only my daughter could marry him!

Someone said: Stop daydreaming!

At this moment, Ivy caught sight of Cyril and immediately ran up to him.

With an eager look on her face, she said: Cyril, you're finally here. I was so worried!

The person who came was Cyril.

Cyril smiled and said: Auntie, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting!

Ivy said in a flurry: Cyril, you're being too polite.

I didn't wait for more than ten minutes, and you came really fast!

Cyril smiled and said: I heard you were in trouble.

So I drove over here in a hurry and ran several red lights on the way.

Ivy looked proud, but she asked with concern: Isn't it going to be a big hassle running so many red lights?

No problem. Cyril said indifferently: I know people in the traffic department.

With just a phone call, everything can be taken care of.

Then, Cyril added: Let's talk about your situation.

How much money were you scammed out of?

Ivy sighed and said, "Alas, I've invested a total of $200,000.

I was told that I could get a dividend of $20,000 this month, but in the end, I can't even withdraw the principal."

Cyril nodded and took full responsibility, saying: Don't worry. Leave this matter to me.

I will definitely help you get your money back.

After saying that, he suddenly saw Alan standing behind Ivy, and his expression changed slightly.

He didn't expect that this annoying good-for-nothing Alan was also here.

Ever since he saw Mia, Cyril had the thought of taking her for himself.

After hearing his younger brother Saul say that Mia was probably still a virgin, that thought in his heart became even stronger.

So, when he saw Mia's good-for-nothing husband, he naturally scoffed at him.

So he deliberately smiled and said, "Oh, Alan is here too.

Do you have a way to help Auntie get her investment back?

Why don't you give it a try?

Then you won't blame me for stealing the show later."

Ivy quickly said, "What can he do to help?

He just has a mouth and can only help shout slogans!"

Cyril nodded and sneered, "Since Alan doesn't have the ability, then I'll give it a try!"

Alan smiled faintly and said five words: "Good luck to you."

Cyril laughed disdainfully.

At this moment, several people around Ivy gathered around and began to fawn on Ivy.

They said, "Ivy, we're all friends.

Please ask this handsome young man to help us too!

The money we were scammed out of is all our hard-earned money!"

Ivy said arrogantly, "I can't make the decision on this.

Cyril is doing me a favor. He doesn't even know you all."

The others all pleaded with Cyril, "Young Master Cyril, please help us too!"

Cyril disdained the others, but he could tell that Ivy was greedy for small gains.

He smiled and said, "Since you are all Auntie Ivy's friends, then I can do you this favor."

When everyone was overjoyed, Cyril said haughtily.

However, I'm only helping you out of respect for Aunt Ivy.

So, for the money I help you retrieve, you have to give Aunt Ivy a 10% commission. Is that acceptable?

The others quickly said, "No problem!"

Getting back 90% is much better than getting nothing back!

As soon as Ivy heard this, she beamed with joy!

The money these friends around her were scammed out of added up to millions.

If Cyril could really help get it back, wouldn't she be able to earn a million or so?

Just as Ivy was excited, Cyril said loudly.

Uncles and aunts, don't be in a hurry. I'll go communicate with them now. You just wait here for my good news.

Ivy thought that with Cyril backing her up at this moment, no one would dare to mess with her.

So she blurted out immediately, "Cyril, I'll go with you!"

Alan quickly said to Ivy, "Mom, you'd better not go and make a scene.

In case Cyril can't solve this matter, you might get into trouble!"

Ivy angrily said, "You good-for-nothing, how dare you question Cyril's ability?"

Everyone else was counting on Cyril to help them get their hard-earned money back.

Now that Alan was going against everyone, it naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of everyone present.

Facing the accusations of countless people, Alan said calmly, "Mom, you'd better not go."

Ivy simply didn't listen and immediately cursed, "Shut your foul mouth!"

Do you have the right to speak here?

There was a look of arrogance on Cyril's face as he sneered, "You don't have much ability, but you're very jealous.

Do you think I'm like you, a good-for-nothing who can only shout slogans?"

When Alan saw that his mother-in-law wouldn't listen to his advice, he simply stopped talking. He said indifferently, "Well, then I'll be waiting for your good news."

Alan really disliked his mother-in-law. She was extremely snobbish.

But she was often blinded by appearances. To put it bluntly, she was just a woman with long hair and little sense.

Today's matter seems to be just a fraud case.

But with a little research, you'll know that there's a lot more going on behind the scenes.

It's a good thing for his mother-in-law to learn a lesson since she doesn't have good judgment.

Ivy didn't understand Alan's good intentions and gave him a fierce glare.

The next second, she said to Cyril with an apologetic look, "Cyril, don't take what this good-for-nothing said to heart. Auntie absolutely believes in you..."

Cyril smiled triumphantly and said, "I won't get angry with a useless person."

After saying that, he immediately said with high spirits, "Auntie, let's go over there!"

Cyril led Ivy through the crowd and walked to the entrance of the Palino Insurance Company.

As soon as they got to the door, he immediately said loudly to the employees who were blocking the gate,

"Go and tell your leader to refund the money of these uncles and aunts immediately.

Otherwise, I'll have my legal team and the public security organs step in, and I'll have you and your boss arrested!"

Ivy chimed in, "Did you bastards hear that?

We have someone backing us now!

If your fraudulent company doesn't refund the money, be careful that Young Master Cyril will send all of you to prison!"

The leading young employee was also a bit nervous and quickly said, "I'm sorry. I'm just a security guard doing odd jobs. I'm not in charge of the specific business!"

Cyril said coldly, "Then give your boss a call.

Tell him that I'm Cyril from the Hardy family in Pras City!

Ask him to come and deal with it personally, or he'll have to bear the consequences!"

    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.

    As the chief steward of the Smith Family, Kendall was an influential figure in Neon City. Save for the handful of top-tier clans, the patriarchs of all other families treated him with the utmost deference. Thanks to his standing, his teahouse thrived, drawing crowds of prominent socialites who came to patronize the place.When Alan arrived at Huguang Guild Hall, Kendall had already gotten there ahead of him.He waited personally at the entrance, and his jaw dropped the moment he saw Alan accompanied by a woman wearing a face mask.Having operated deep within Neon City’s elite circles for years, Kendall possessed an extraordinary eye for detail. He recognized at a single glance that the masked woman beside Alan was none other than Juliet, the heiress of the Austin Family.Overwhelmed with delight, he exclaimed excitedly, Young Master, Miss Juliet! What a surprise to see the two of you together!Juliet let out a soft chuckle. Uncle Kendall, I disguised myself this well, yet you still sa

    The rest of the clan chimed in one after another, their reasoning plain and simple: Alan had grown up in humble circumstances and was simply unworthy of the eldest young lady of the Bruce Family.Domingo wore a sneering look as he spoke. Father, even though Alan is Second Brother’s son, he’s exactly what young people nowadays call a nobody. How could such a man ever compare to a peerless beauty like Louise?Seeing every single person speaking out in opposition, the old Smith patriarch let out a cold snort and said, Do any of you know that Louise’s mother—the eldest daughter-in-law of the Bruce Family—once would have died for John? She chased after him relentlessly for years. If John had given her his consent back then, she would have become the second daughter-in-law of the Smith Family.

    That’s right, Gaston, Alan’s male cousin, cut in. I’ve crossed paths with Louise from the Bruce Family before. She’s an icy, reserved woman who rarely attends social events. Countless high-society galas at home and abroad have sent her elaborate invitations, yet she’s turned every single one down. Courting her would be next to impossible. On top of that, I already have a formal engagement. If I pursued her, the Bruces would see right through my ulterior motives.Wendell, the eldest son of Domingo—the third brother and one of Alan’s younger cousins—could not hide his eagerness as he spoke up. Grandfather, let me give it a try!Mitchell glanced at his nephew, whose features were plain and unremarkable, and shook his head. Wendell, the Bruce Family already stands stronger than us. Even Gaston, our eldest grandson, might not be deemed worthy in their eyes—what chance do you have?Domingo’s tone turned sour. Eldest brother, there’s no need to speak like that.

    Alan patted the back of her hand and smiled. That’s just how life is—one must stand firm through extreme highs and crushing lows. If a person is showered with flattery their entire life, they may never grasp the cruelty of the world or the hardships ordinary people endure. Such a person will likely suffer a devastating loss someday. Unlike me, I’ve seen all the warmth and coldness of humanity ever since I turned eight. All those experiences are an invaluable asset for the rest of my life.Juliet nodded softly, big teardrops sliding down from the corners of her eyes.Her heart ached deeply for the life Alan had led over the past decade and more.
