| immediately moved away from Charlotte and approached Gabrielle's side.
Charlotte's expression soured when she sawavoid her and got upset. Her eyes were filled with tears as she
looked very aggrieved. She tried to talk tonicely, but | made her feel this way.
| did feel slightly guilty. But to protect my identity and to subtly get back at her for her past contempt and
insults, | turned my gaze away and pretended not to notice, only speaking to Gabrielle.
"Your family's conversations are so dull. Don't they care about how you've been doing lately? Whether anyone's
been giving you a hard time?"
That was my honest opinion.
When my family gathered, even though they cfrom all walks of life, we never talked about other wealthy
families. Instead, we would ask about each other's hobbies.

My father and uncle loved playing chess. Whenever they got together, it was often for an entire day, and they
would sometimes forget to eat.
My mother and aunts enjoyed talking about embroidery and soap operas.
In short, | had never seen my family sit together only to discuss wealth.
Gabrielle's expression darkened. "They've always been like this, which is why I've considered leaving home. | had
a boyfriend before. We had just confessed to each other when | brought him hto meet my family. After that,
he dumped me."
"Why?"
She smiled bitterly. "He claimed my family was too materialistic and assumed | must be the same, having grown
up in that environment. He hated people who were driven by status."
| could only say that the guy wasn't entirely wrong. But these things aren't always black and white.
At least from what | observed, she wasn't the type of person driven by materialism.
For example, even in the Morgan family, there was someone like Crystal. So, things weren't always so absolute.
While chatting quietly, a phone suddenly rang, and Zeke answered.
"Hello? Yes, it's me. Of course, I'm
serious! Since | started this business, | haven't made any profit yet. I'm betting everything on this, so | invested
most of my assets. How could | be playing around?
"No problem! I'll contact your boss directly and make sure they agree. I've never seen a company that would
refuse an investment that's being handed to them!"
After hanging up, he looked up at everyone. "It was a call from Nixon Games."
Upon hearing that name, | instantly perked up.
Nixon Games? Wasn't that my gaming company?
Reginald said, "Oh! That's the company you wanted to invest in last time? You're putting in ten million? You're
quite bold!"
"Ten million? That's too much!"
"Do games even make money these
days? Just because a few top games are doing well doesn't mean the entire industry is profitable. Every year,
many games fail, and many people lose everything Don't be impulsive."
But Zeke waved his hand confidently. "Don't worry. This gaming company is different. had people investigate it!
This company is connected to the White family of Gothville!"
"Oh? The White family of Gothville?"
Everyone in the room froze, and even | was stunned.
