Chapter 100 "Bob?" Emma asked.
Bob was silent for a second when he saw the bouquet of purple roses in Emma's arms. A hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.
ma smiled. “I received your sunflowers. They're beautiful. My classmates like them very much, so they made it into a flower arrangement and placed it in the classroom." Emma's explanation did not make Bob much happier. However, he still smiled warmly. "Good." "Are you here to look for someone?" Emma asked.
"Just passing by. I'm looking for Uncle Liam today, Can I take the scar as you?" Bob asked.
"Of course," Emma said.
Bob was looking for Liam today to discuss the "Holy Mountain" project. Brad had caused trouble. recently, causing several major shareholders to withdraw their investments. His goal was to break Liam's capital chain.
Bob and Liam talked for a long tin the study.
Emma returned to the bedroom. After washing up, she sat on the bed and played with her phone. At about nine o'clock in the evening, Bob left in a car and Liam returned from the study.
Emma looked up at Liam. “Has he left?" "Yeah." Liam took off his jacket. He walked over, propping one hand on Emma's side, and asked, "Did Bob give you flowers today?" Emma said seriously, "Yes. Sunflowers. My classmates placed them in a vase in the classroom. I only carry the flowers you gave me." As Emma spoke, she pointed at the flowers on the table in the bedroom.
After taking a shower, Emma smelled fragrant and soft. Coupled with her gentle expression, in Liam's eyes, it automatically translated into a “sexual invitation". He leaned over and gently pressed Emma into bed. He kissed her lips long and passionately. His hand slid under the soft blanket.
a hupped Liam's neck. When they kissed, she smelled a faint scent of nicotine. "You've been....
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsmoking?" 1/5 Emma's voice was crushed by Liam's kiss. She heard him grunt softly.
Is there something troubling him? Emma wondered.
Before Emma could ask, Liam had already exerted force and pressed her into the sheets. His love for her grew stronger and stronger daily. His desire for her did not decrease either. Every the looked at her, he wanted to kiss her. Every tthey kissed, his love would reach its height.
They spent the night having sex.
The next day. When Emma woke up, she found out Liam and Bob were discussing the Holy Mountain last night. Last night, when they were making out, the faint smell of smoke on Liam was probably because of this matter.
After Emma woke up, she contacted Vere. "Vere, how goes the matter I asked you to do last time?" It was late at night at Nuverland. Vere was not asleep. He sorted out the information he got and sent it to Emma. "The Dream Group does have a big project that is going to be in the suburbs of Troln City. According to various sources, there's a $5% chance that it has already been decided on Holy Mountain. Today, at 2:30 p.m. your time, Dream Group will announce this news. At that time, the Austen Group's share price will change tically." "Alright. The data is very complete. Thanks, Vere." Emma finished reading the analytical charts. She could confirm that the following developments were the sas in her previous life.
The Dream Group had officially invested in Holy Mountain. The price of land in the entire suburb skyrocketed and even becthe focus of government-approved future development. The 800 million dollars invested by Liam would immediately double or even triple... shocking everyone.
At the stime, the Halls Group's board of directors was in a mess over this matter.
"Lakeson Group has already taken over that hot piece of land in the west of the city," one of them said. "Mr. Hall, that piece of land was originally ours. Now that Lakeson Group has it, our stock price will plummet when the market opens later. Who will pay for the losses of the shareholders? Can you account for it?" Lakeson Group and the Halls Group have always been rivals in the real estate industry. The two companies had been fighting over the land in the west of the city.
825 13.56 Wed, 10 Jul Chapter 100 Now everyone thou Lakeson Group was the winner and the Halls Group failed.
П The stock price of the Halls Group had already fallen for several days. Its market value had shrunk, and the money in the shareholders' hands had becworthless. Everyone couldn't hold it in anymore and demanded an explanation from Liam.
"Mr. Hall, after this project, we feel that Halls Group no longer needs us," one of the shareholders said.
"Yes, let's go. Since you don't lack our money, we'll withdraw our investments," another added.
In truth, most of the funding for the mountain wasteland cfrom the personal accounts of Emma and Liam. These shareholders did not invest much at all.
Under Brad's instigation, they all found their next investments and wanted to jump ship. Brad's drastic measure was to cut off Liam's capital.
"The market will soon open at three o'clock. We will see how the Halls Group's shares will fall withou us," a shareholder stated.
Everyone was waiting to see Liam make a fool of himself.
However, Liam did not say a word from beginning to end. His face did not reveal his emotions. Liam took a lofty stand and was in command of everything. No one knew what he was thinking.
At nearly three o'clock, the stock market was about to open. At this moment, everyone saw an unbelievable scene. The estimation of the stock price of the Halls Group had been falling. From the initial high point, it had already fallen by 5%.
However, just as the market was about to open, it changed. It took a sharp turn upward and its share price immediately rose back. It soared all the way. It had already increased by 8%.
The shareholders surrounding the display screen were dumbfounded. They thought, 'Fuck. What's going on? Why did the plummeting stocks of the Halls Group return? And it is still rising' The rising graph was about to reach the highest point in history.
The shareholders who had withdrawn their investments now looked at each other.
As everyone was shocked, more shocking news came. Levi turned on the television in the shareholder's meeting room.
The financial news officially announced that Dream Group in Nuverland had invested ten billion dollars to build the first thscenic spot in Ithay in the Holy Mountain of Troln City. Once this stunning news was released, the entire industry would change. No wonder the stock price of the Halls Group soared.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat was because the Halls Group had bought the entire tourism development area. In the conference room, those clamoring for Liam to take responsibility were humiliated.
The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. They looked at Liam and completely lost their ability to speak.
Levi said, "Sirs, Mr. Hall already knew that the Dream Group wanted to build a universal scenic area in this area. The entry of the Dream Group coupled with the policy dividend, can triple the 800 million dollars we invested at least. Originally, everyone here would also be the beneficiaries of this project. Unfortunately, you don't believe in Mr. Hall."
Otherwise, their 2 million dollars would bec6 million dollars. If gottomina they invested 20 million dollars, they would have gotten 60 million dollars. The return was three times. In the future, after the scenic area was built, it would continue to increase in value.
The shareholders did not miss out on a sum of money. They had missed a brand new life.
Because the stock price of the Halls Group soared, it cut into the market value of several other companies of the stype. The stocks of several rivals of the Halls Group fell all the way.
In other words, those people who had jumped ship and betrayed the Halls Group lost money on the first day. Speople lost around a hundred thousand dollars, while others lost millions of dollars.
Compared to the Halls Group share price chart, it was extremely ironic. The board of directors was dead silent.
Finally, someone began to plead for leniency. "Mr. Hall... If you knew about such important news, why didn't you tell us earlier?" "That's right, Mr. Hall. We're old and muddle-headed. We're not as well-informed as you. But you can't be so unkind," another added.
"We're also your father's buddies," a third chimed in.
Finally, Liam stood and spoke coldly, "Halls Group got to where it is today because everyone works together! Since you chose to follow Brad, you are not my buddies. Those who followwill share in the profits. But once you are disloyal, I will never use you again."
