Chapter 642
After Detective Karl finished talking, he left.
Stella stood at her spot with a deep frown.
'It's true Keegan was the one who saved me from the car accident back then. However, I had never
thought about why Keegan was at the scene. After the cars in the accident flipped over, both cars
caught fire. All the cars along the road remained far away because they feared they would get affected.
Besides that, Keegan has an indifferent attitude toward strangers, so it really is odd for him to have
saved me. I initially thought the car accident was a one-sided murder. However, it now appears that
there is too much room for doubt. Just as Detective Karl said, the most direct method is to sow discord
between them. If they had planned the murder together, sowing discord between the two would break
their alliance. Then, I won't have to worry about finding out the truth,' thought Stella.
At this thought, she took out her phone and called a number.
Meanwhile, Albert had been in awful luck this month.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSemiconductor Technology's stocks had been increasing for a week, and various verified accounts
practically touted them. Albert watched their stocks for a week and could no longer resist, so he
invested another 20 million. On the following day, after their stocks increased again, his confidence
level skyrocketed. He then bought several million.
However, their stocks began to drop in the second week. At first, the drop was not much. It was only
three to five points and was still acceptable.
Albert had even thought it was a chance for a margin call. After all, he was still making money.
And so, he added quite a sum of funds. However, it limit-down the following day.
Albert was a holder of the original stocks. While the stocks had a limitdown, he still made money from
his total capital, so he added more funds again.
The stocks dropped, and Albert added more funds.
The stocks dropped again, and Albert added more funds once again.
The process kept on repeating.
By the time Albert had spent all of his chips, the stocks still had not increased.
If it increased by two or three points, it would definitely limit-down after a day or two.
There was no pattern to it at all. In just two weeks, the stocks had fallen below its issue price.
Aside from losing the money he had earned from Stella, he additionally lost over ten million dollars.
Rookie stock brokers like Albert thought the more a stock dropped, the more it would rebound.
However, not only did they not rebound, all of them got tied up.
If Albert were smarter, he knew he would have been safe if he sold off his stocks at a loss at this time.
However, Albert was stupid and greedy.
"Keegan wouldn't stand by idly and let the stocks of a big company like Semiconductor Technology
continue dropping. Besides, the verified accounts on Facebook unanimously have optimistic views, so
selling off my stocks at a loss at this time means I'm quitting. I'm not quitting. Ever since Stella and
Keegan got divorced, business at the company has gotten significantly more difficult," thought Albert.
Albert was counting on the stocks to help him make a fortune, so he would not sell them off no matter
what others said.
However, the stocks kept on dropping. They would drop by hundreds of thousands daily, so he felt
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmreally upset.
At three o'clock, the stock market closed.
The stock was green again.
Albert did not look happy.
Just as he exited the study, he saw Hylda and Sophia return from shopping. They had brought home a
bunch of luxury goods and were trying them on in the living room.
When Hylda saw him, she said happily, "Albert, I bought you a tie. Come over, and I'll help you try it
on."
Albert walked over with a frown.
While Hylda was taking out the tie, its price tag fell out.
Albert glanced at it and immediately looked displeased. "13 thousand? For a piece of rag like this?"
"Branded things are all around this price. Look at its quality! It's much better than the previous one,
which cost one or two thousand. Touch it and see." ’Touch what?’ Albert had an icy expression and
threw the tie into the box.
He continued, "Quickly return it!"
Hylda's expression turned icy.
