He went abroad for three years and made more money than the entire Montague family, but no one knew. The biggest acquisition back then? That was him, and he wasn't even twenty. No one knows how many companies he bought during that time."

He took a sip of water.

His uncles thought I was biased and that I cared too much about him. Really, I was just trying to keep him in check.
