"Fine." Chris nodded.He turned to his parents, whose faces were already flushed with anger."Dad, Mom, let's go. These phones aren't worthy of us."Without a backward glance, he led them out of the store.Behind them, the bleached-haired clerk muttered with a sneer, "Tch, broke folks pretending to be rich..."Chris ignored him and guided his parents straight into the official flagship store of another brand across the corridor.The contrast in service was like night and day.Uniformed attendants greeted them with warm smiles, offering water and snacks. A young patient and attentive saleswoman laid out three brand-new flagship models and carefully taught George and Laura how to power them on, make calls, and use the messaging app step by step.The couple had never been treated with such courtesy. For a moment, they were overwhelmed, their hands clumsy and uncertain, but their faces glowed with the rare light when given due respect.Chris swiped his card, replaced their numbers

[Current scenario detected. Information retrieval initiated...][During staff training, this hotel's lobby manager explicitly instructed, "If someone doesn't look rich, don't give them a room over a hundred dollars unless you absolutely have to."][Reason: "Remember, poor folk cause endless trouble. They lack manners, and they'll trash the place, leaving us to clean up. It ruins our hotel's image!"]A cold smile tugged at the corner of Chris's lips.What was the point of wasting breath arguing with a snobbish receptionist? If he was going to strike, he'd strike the one who made the rules.He didn't bother saying another word. Instead, he issued a silent command to the system in his mind.'System, recommend a hotel of the same class, but with better service.'[Acknowledged.][However, this recommendation will consume today's information quota.]Chris raised a brow. 'Is there anything more profitable lined up for today?'[Scanning... Today is a weekend. Global financial markets

"Prepare to sell." Chris said."Alright, I—"Before Emma could finish, a sharp female voice cut in."Emma! Who are you calling again? You're dawdling as always!"It was her elder sister, Katie.Flustered, Emma clamped her hand over the receiver and whispered to Chris, "Something came up. Message me!"She hung up in a rush, tucked the phone away, and hurried to her sister, who was busy comparing silk ties in front of a mirror."Katie, let's sit down for a bit. I'm feeling tired."Without turning, Katie pressed a cobalt-blue tie against her blouse and frowned. "Sit? We just had coffee not long ago. Is your body so weak?"Emma bit her lip. "I... I have something urgent to handle."Katie finally glanced back, her tone dripping with disdain. "What urgent business could you possibly have? You never have anything to do. Go sit on the sofa if you're that desperate." She lifted the tie higher. "Look at this one. Doesn't it suit Shawn?"Emma forced a stiff smile. "Yes... it looks grea

'I profited over 12 million?!' Emma's mind went completely blank. The world seemed to spin around her, every detail of her surroundings dissolving into unreality.Just then, a sharp, impatient voice yanked her back to her senses. "Emma!"Katie strode over, towering above her with open disdain written all over her face."Why are you sitting here like an idiot? Didn't you say you had something urgent to handle? Well? Is it done?"She flung a tie onto the coffee table."If it's finished, then get over here and help me. Tell me, does this one suit Shawn or not?"Emma lifted her head slowly. Her gaze was still distant, her voice trembling with a weakness she didn't even realize was there."Y-Yeap… Done… It's just... I haven't quite wrapped my head around it yet.""Wrapped your head around what?" Katie's brows knitted, her tone dripping with irritation. "What's wrong with you?"Emma drew a long, shuddering breath, as though summoning every ounce of strength in her body. She met Ka

Mason thought for a moment before saying, "Emma, you seem to get along well with Chris. If he's willing to help you make money, that's a blessing. From now on, stay close to him. Keep the connection."Mason let out a long sigh, his tone tinged with regret and reflection."We really underestimated him before. Who knew he's been hiding his true abilities all along."Then his voice suddenly shifted, carrying an edge of fire—resentment and anger bubbling beneath the words."If only he had shown even the slightest trace of that ability when he was still with your sister… If she had dared to bring up divorce, I swear I would've broken her legs myself!"That furious declaration blasted through the phone. Katie, who was standing right beside Emma, heard it all.Her face drained of color, then flushed blue, then green, like she had been slapped a hundred times across the face in public. The sting was unbearable.Her body trembled, and at last she broke down, shrieking into the receiver.
