Zachary paced back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back. This had become a
habit of his whenever he needed to figure out something.
“This is difficult…”
After thinking for some time, Zachary turned his head to say to Jasper, “Because of our mutual
ideology, it is difficult for the Easterners to penetrate the West, let alone the United States.”
“Although the Laws know a few members, they are all members of the senate. However, this is
ultimately a matter for Congress, and they will be the ones who have any say. I am afraid it will be
difficult for the Laws to do anything.”
Jasper smiled and said, “Uncle Law, I never wanted to avoid this catastrophe through lobbying.”
“It is possible that no amount of lobbying will work for this matter, especially since this is right up the
United States’s alley. Even the stupid politicians won’t betray the majority to choose this very small
profit that we’re able to provide.”
“What are you planning to do then?” Zachary lifted his eyebrow and asked.
Jasper turned his head to look at the old master.
Zachary was stunned. When he looked over to where Jasper was looking, he realized the old master
was looking at him with a displeased look on his face.
Even though Zachary was already in his forties and near fifties and though he had taken charge of the
Laws for many years, he would still feel like a guilty child who had made a mistake when the old master
looked at him in dissatisfaction.
“Dad, why are you looking at me like that?”
The old master said angrily, “I regret handing the family to such a disappointment like you!”
“So what if they were from the United States? So what if they’re Wall Street? So what if they’re the
Federal Reserve? They only have more brains and hands. Why are you being so cowardly after
hearing their names?” Zachary felt ashamed when the old master criticized him.
“Dad, can’t you wait to scold me after? Jasper is still here. How am I going to get away from this
embarrassing situation?” Zachary smiled bitterly and pleaded.
Zachary was only acting like this because he did not treat Jasper as an outsider anymore.
If it were somebody else, Zachary might consider killing them to preserve his prestige and image.
“You have to remember that you’re a descendant of the Law family. The others can surrender and run
away when they’re faced with a powerful enemy, but you can’t!” The old master said in a deep voice.
Zachary lowered his head and said, “Yes, I understand.”
With a scoff, the old master continued, “The market crash of Harbor City is not even over yet, yet
you’ve already forgotten your lesson. Why don’t you think about who caused the crash?”
“Even if we didn’t lose, we have to remember that we haven’t won yet!”
“As long as the enemy is still here and they’re still determined, we’ll have to defend against them.
Defending is important, but if we have a chance, why don’t we break their hand and give them a lesson
that they’ll never forget so that they won’t do it again?”
Zachary was stunned when he heard that. He was not enlightened with perfect wisdom. Instead , he
simply felt that the old master’s age was getting to him.
They were talking about Wall Street and the Federal Reserve. This meant that anyone who was on the
opposite side would have to face the raw power of the world‘s largest force, the United States.
This was like a three-year-old fighting a strong and burly man who was covered in muscles. Was he
insane? When the old master saw Zachary’s reaction, he knew what he was thinking.
“You fool!”
The old master scolded Zachary for failing to meet his expectations. Then, he added, “No wonder
Henry is still a disappointment even though he’s an adult now. How can the son achieve anything great
when he has such a useless father?”
Zachary said angrily, “Dad, I’m also your son. If we’re to look at things according to your logic, what
does that make you?”
