The Ex-Wife Strikes Back By Queena Laurie

Chapter 85 

She was not in a hurry. If the transaction volume was too dense for a certain period, the dealers preparing to hype the stock would be alerted. 

Everything that happened in her previous life told Aurelia that this stock could make a lot of money. However, she had chosen a different path in this new life. She could not conclude that her fate was set in stone. 

Therefore, she had to be careful. 

This week, the transaction volume was extremely low. 

A certain number of new clients and some old clients bought the stocks. A small number of old clients sold the stocks. 

In short, the trading volume and stock activity were almost the same as usual, but the candlestick chart showed a higher percentage of buying than selling. 

However, the Tospait Vessels price did not rise as much as the other stocks, which rose drastically. 

It was soon the end of April. 

At this time, the prices of Tospait Vessels‘ shares had just reached eight dimes per share. By that time, Aurelia had bought more than 54,000 shares in total. 

Aurelia announced that she would temporarily stop buying and observe for the next few days. 

In her previous life, her impression of the stock only started in June or July. 

She was not greedy to the point of using up all her money and waiting for others to drive the stock prices while she made money before the stocks were launched. 

If she really did that, it would be easy for others to find out about this, no matter how good of a job she thought she had done at concealing the truth. 

The interest was too big. She only took a little piece of it, which others still tolerated. If she did not spend any effort and wanted to gain a significant portion of the interest, misfortune would definitely fall upon her, and even her parents would disown her. 

In fact, Aurelia’s conscience that stopped her from continuing to buy Tospait Vessels‘ stocks was absolutely prescient. 

A certain person was already discussing the peculiarity of the stocks in a luxury villa somewhere on Druobridge at this very 

moment. 

“Samantha, Tospait Vessels‘ recent activity has been very unusual. Our people have found that the transaction volume of retail investors has reached up to over 50 thousand deals in the past half a month.” 

“We’re talking about around the shares worth 1 million dollars. This is unlikely some accidental behavior. Has anyone received the news first and known that we planned to pull this stock? Is that why they had their eyes on us and are prepared 

to steal a share?” 

A young man wearing a red striped shirt from Versace waved a thick stack of analysis sheets. He was deep in thought, showing faint anger. 

“I don’t think so. This news is so confidential that few people, including you and me, know about it. Besides, we have been planning for this stock for almost a year.” 

“Those stock analysts and financial experts are all isolated. They have no contact with the outside world, and there is no opportunity to leak the information. How can anyone know in advance that we have targeted this stock?” 

“Maybe it’s just a coincidence. Don’t make yourself too nervous.” 

“What if it isn’ta coincidence, Samantha? You know we took a lot of risks to get this sum of money. The amount of funds I embezzled from the state investment company alone was up to 46 million dollars.” 

“Not to mention, you gathered a huge amount of money as a favor from others. They’re easy to borrow but hard to pay back. If the benefits and profits aren’t sufficient, you know what the consequences are if you deal with them 

“There can’t be any mistakes in this order. Otherwise, both of us can’t even bear the compensation costs. Even if we keep the capital without making any profit, it’s still our loss.” 

The young man who spoke was obviously slightly irritable. After throwing the documents on the table, he began pacing in 

the room. 

The man named Samantha was also young but he was much calmer. 

After listening to the other party’s complaints and worries, his expression did not change much except for a slight frown, 

He slowly took the data and materials, looked through them patiently with his slender fingers, and raised his eyebrows after→→→ a while. 

Chapter 85 

“Let’s observe this for a while. If the other party plans to aim for this stock, then another sum of money will be used to buy the stock after International Workers‘ Day, pushing the stock to the highest point. If not, it means that this is an action from some short band trade investors, and there’s not much to worry about.” 

“What if, and I mean what if, someone has set their eyes on our interest, Samantha? What will you do next?” 

“We can’t go back this time. We’ve been preparing for a long time and we don’t have a backup stock. Even if we do, it’s too late to change the target now. The preliminary preparation has been completed. It’s impossible to stop halfway now. We must go through with it, even if we don’t want to.” 

Samantha nodded slightly, agreeing with his words. 

In fact, since the preparations had already reached this point, none of them could withdraw and stop. This involved too many people’s interests. 

Although Samantha appeared indifferent toward Skylar’s concern, the former was not as calm as he seemed. 

However, Samantha was not as irritable and angry as Skylar. If anyone dared to snatch from them…. 

Samantha gently tapped the mahogany table and spoke nonchalantly. 

“What are you panicking about? Even if someone really had the guts to do so, they’ll have to be alive to pull it off. We’ll just have to end them when the time comes. Throw the body into the sea and feed them to the sharks. Haven’t you done this 

before?” 

Hearing this, the man named Skylar immediately stopped and looked over in a daze. 

It took him a while to feel a chill creeping down his spine. He no longer felt irritable and uneasy as he thought, “How could I forget that the man in front of me was always a cold–blooded murderer?” 

Only a few people were still alive after offending that man, let alone for such a hefty sum. 

Skylar thought that he should not have mentioned this matter to Samantha, causing him to fret over nothing. 

Besides, all the wealthy children in Druobridge knew that Samantha and Skylar were secretly preparing to make a fortune. They just did not know their specifics. 

Skylar guessed that perhaps a few clever ones had anticipated their goal. If they focused on the stock market, they could benefit without making any effort. Instead, they refused to do so and wanted to steal from Samantha. 

“They must want to die early. Samantha won’t be merciful. He has always been a fearless madman since childhood, Skylar thought. 

“It seems that my worries are redundant. Who would dare get involved at such a time?” he pondered. 

Even the successor living in the palace, infamous for being unreasonable, did not dare cross Samantha. 

“You make sense, Samantha. I was overreacting. Now that I think about it, we have people watching over those few who could pull this off, and they didn’t notice anything unusual.” 

“Besides, we’ve let out rumors about this a year ago. If a problem arises, we won’t let them off easily. I don’t think anyone is messing with us behind this. Is this a mere coincidence?” 

Eventually. Samantha could not help but glare at Skylar who was muttering. 

“It’s you who made a fuss, and you’re convincing yourself again. Skylar, can you be calmer? Do you know how many things I have to do in a day?” 

“I was just worried. Samantha. As you know, we shoulder a significant mission this time. If we lose so much money, even the patriarchs in our families can’t defend us.” 

“Have you stopped worrying now?” 

“I suddenly realized that what you said made sense. If someone was messing with us, that person could be extraordinary. We haven’t even started yet. Even those experts don’t know when we’ll start. What did the person that made the first move used as a basis to buy this stock before us?” 

“Moreover, according to the information we’ve collected so far, it can’t prove that someone is controlling this behind the scenes. The clients are still scattered, and the transaction value involved is small. I thought it was a little scary after calculations. However, judging from the current situation of the stock market, where it is gradually rising, this transaction volume is nothing” 

Seeing Samantha no longer look at him expressionlessly as before, the chill Skylar felt gradually faded, and he was back in at good mood. 

Unexpectedly, Samantha became solemn again after hearing Skylar’s words. 

It seemed that Skylar’s words gave Samantha a bad feeling, and Samantha tapped his fingers on the table again. 

Skylar knew that Samantha would subconsciously do that when he was thinking of something. 

Chapter 85 

“Skylar, have someone keep an eye on the stock and the clients who purchased it. Meanwhile, get someone else to check if they have a connection with one another.” 

“Let’s not trouble ourselves, Samantha. Don’t you think that it’s likely a coincidence, too?” 

“The timing is too accurate, even if it were a coincidence. There’s nothing wrong with checking this. Carry out this task well.” “Okay, don’t worry. I’ll have someone keep an eye on it. If those clients continue to buy in, I’ll search every nook and cranny to find the culprit. I’m looking forward to finding the jerk who would dare to steal from us.” 

“All right.” Samantha nodded and shifted his attention to the documents. Skylar knew that he could leave, so he brushed his nose and uttered awkwardly, “I’ll take my leave now, Samantha.” 

“Okay.”
