"The world’s not fair, but fairness doesn’t pay the bills. You don’t wait for a handout — you build your own damn ladder, one step at a time."
Ethan Grey’s life was built on ambition, hard work, and hope — until a single accusation destroyed it all. 
Framed by his ruthless boss, Ethan loses his job, his reputation, and is left drowning in half a million dollars of debt. 
Cast aside by a society that thrives on crushing the weak, he’s at rock bottom with no way out.  
But in his darkest moment, something extraordinary happens. A mysterious system awakens, offering Ethan a second chance — but with rules. 
[Congratulations, You have awakened the Harem Investment System]
It can’t make him rich overnight, and it won’t give him shortcuts. Instead, it points him toward physical investments: crumbling properties, broken-down machines, and forgotten treasures. 
Each one is a gamble, but with every success, the system rewards him with newfound skills and opportunities.

Oliver's brows were deeply furrowed, his hands clenched into tight fists as he stared at Ethan in disbelief.

And Riley — Riley looked like she had just been hit by a tidal wave of emotions. Her lips parted, but no sound came out.

Her eyes shimmered, tears threatening to spill, her breath shaky.

Ethan gently loosened his grip on her back and stepped forward.

His expression was firm, his presence commanding as he addressed the doctor.
