LOGIN"Do you think everyone here is blind?" Geoffrey frowned, turning his head to look at Reginald. "I sent you an invitation out of respect for your past work in the chamber of commerce. As a senior member, of course you wouldn't be left out. But you insisted on bringing two people who have nothing to do with this event to the banquet. This is not only a slap in my face, but also an insult to the chamber of commerce.""I've said all I need to say. I'll give you a choice: either send these two people and this little boy out, or you leave with them."Reginald spoke in a low voice, "Mr. Wolley, first, my secretary has done nothing wrong. Second, why is it that others can bring their secretaries and families, but I can't?"Geoffrey's eyes grew sharp. "Here, my rules are the rules.""Aren't you afraid the wind will twist your tongue?" Amelia glanced sideways and spoke loudly, "Mr. Wolley, if you don't want us to come in, just say so. Why go to all this trouble?""After all, only children are t
Four Seasons Hotel was a place Amelia had never visited before. From the entrance, one could see inside; the hotel lobby still retained the once-popular Art Deco style, featuring a massive marble pillar, exquisite decorative art, and an indoor water feature, all highlighting a blend of Eastern and Western elements.The usher led Amelia and her companions toward the banquet hall, winding through the corridors until they reached the entrance.As the usher opened the door and they all walked in together, they were immediately greeted by a woman's slightly mocking voice: "Well, isn't this Reginald? At your age, what are you doing attending a banquet?"Her words were full of disdain for Reginald, implying that this was not a place he belonged.Those nearby who heard her also turned their attention toward them."Indeed, by rights, the Gorney family isn't qualified to attend this banquet. I wonder how they managed to get an invitation.""Maybe it's a fake. After all, not just anyone can come
There is a saying that a powerful outsider cannot suppress the local tyrant, but Geoffrey did not think so. He believed that although these families were strong, as long as he held the lifeblood in his hands, no matter what family it was, they would all submit to him.At this moment, the hall became somewhat quiet after Connor arrived, and almost all eyes were focused on him. After all, these people were not ordinary; they all knew the strength of the Hewson family.Some time ago, the Hewson family announced to the public that the old master was in poor health and had retired to enjoy his remaining years. Unexpectedly, he suddenly returned and even kicked his own son out of the family.Many people speculated that his son wanted to take the position of family head, so when Connor's health declined, he seized the opportunity to take over the leadership."It is a great honor to welcome the head of the Hewson family," a voice called out from afar. As the person approached, it became clear
"So that's how it is." Desmond gently patted the old man's back. "I'll follow your arrangements, Grandpa. Since you say that our benefactor is extraordinary, perhaps we'll meet them at tonight's banquet.""Desmond, you've grown up. You can now see things from different perspectives." The old man smiled with satisfaction. "After the banquet, the path I've paved for you will be yours to walk alone. Whether you succeed or fail depends on yourself."Desmond nodded firmly. "I won't let you down, Grandpa!"***Outside the window, the sun set and the moon rose, leaving a trace of white in the sky.Amelia and Carl were already dressed in their banquet attire. Even Elijah's outfit was designed by Amelia herself. He looked a bit childish, but the clothes gave him a touch of maturity."Wow, boss, this is really comfortable to wear." Elijah admired himself in the mirror, as if he'd found a treasure.Amelia smiled. "I designed it according to your measurements, of course it fits you well."Today,
On the other side, Geoffrey, in the name of the person in charge, gathered the members of the Norfolk Chamber of Commerce.This time, Geoffrey wore a full-face mask. He stood up and looked at everyone present: "The reason I brought you all together today is because I have something to tell you."The people below exchanged glances: "President, just tell us directly what it is.""That's right, you are the leader of our chamber."The others all voiced their agreement."Alright, then I'll be straightforward." Geoffrey's eyes narrowed slightly. "You are all my people, and over the years, you've made quite a bit of money following me. But this time... there's a big opportunity. Do you dare to follow me?""A big one? How much can we make!""I've been a bit tight on cash lately. Who would refuse a chance to earn more!""President, please don't keep us guessing. Just tell us directly."Greed for money was evident in everyone's eyes.Geoffrey raised the corners of his mouth: "You must have hear
As soon as these words were spoken, doubt appeared in the eyes of the others."Are you joking? How could the Miami stock market be so easy to crash?""You're still wasting time on the stock market? Remember that time when Canada and Mexico tried to crash America's gold market? Do you know how much they lost? Americans are crazy! They'll fight for anything!""Shut up!" Geoffrey rubbed his temples. "That was Canada and Mexico's doing. They weren't thinking straight, so of course it was doomed to fail.""But I've already finished my plan!"The people in the video spoke up one after another: "The plan is finished?""Why didn't any of us know about it?""Are you saying the Miami stock market is already in your hands?""All we need to do is wait for the market to open next week." Geoffrey's voice was calm. "The prices of MIRXES and CETY on the American stock market have been rising, and I've been manipulating them behind the scenes.""All those investors have poured their money into these t
