The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call ( Wynter Quinnell )

Chapter 1439 Blind to the Commoners' Life

"The higher-up's conference will conclude by this morning. The land requisition will be announced afterward," Yvette hastily added, fearing that Kenton might deem her no longer valuable.

Kenton, a businessman driven entirely by personal gain, immediately shifted his tone upon hearing her update. "I was too impatient earlier. Ms. Yates, please don't take it to heart.

"Ms. Krim, make sure to prepare more nourishing soups for her. A good mood might just help her remember even more useful things."

Yvette was not foolish at all. She understood how valuable her information from the future was, so she seized the opportunity. "I've had enough soup. I'd like to go out for a walk to take in the scenery. It will help clear my head."

Kenton had already looked into Yvette's background. He knew she was inherently vain and had a penchant for shopping. After all, coming from a background of human traffickers, she needed some pictures to embellish her social media presence.

He didn't reject her request as he was planning on maintaining a long-term partnership with her. She was his golden goose in future business ventures, after all.

"Go ahead. Whatever catches your eye, just bill it to the Wray Group," Kenton replied.

Yvette's smile grew even brighter with Kenton's approval. Though she had made quite a profit from stocks in recent days, who wouldn't prefer to shop on someone else's dime?

Now, whether she visited upscale clubs or attended socialite gatherings, everyone had to address her with respect.

After all, the amount of fortune some of the Chamber of Commerce members could earn was reliant on her. Even the wealthy ladies' husbands had to flatter her, not to mention people of lower classes, including Thesara.

Yvette sneered at her, "Did you hear what Mr. Wray said? From now on, do whatever I tell you."

Thesara lowered her gaze with her fists clenched. "Yes, Ms. Yates."

Yvette felt absolutely elated. She noted the amount of people who had already bought the stocks she had recommended.

It made no sense for her not to do the same. Hence, she had her trader increase her investment by another three million.

At this moment, both Yvette and Kenton were eagerly anticipating a windfall. But what these capitalists failed to understand was how the ordinary person lived, nor did they care.

As a result, they hadn't noticed that some things had already quietly begun to change.

As the morning wore on, the staff at the gold shop barely had a moment to catch their breath. Even the store manager had to step in to help with the overwhelming demand, but it still wasn't enough.

Amid the chaos, a couple arrived. They were carefully selecting their wedding jewelry. After all, they had to meticulously pick out the perfect jewelry for the wedding.

Just as they finished their selections and asked the staff for the price, the store manager made an announcement with a megaphone.

"Attention, everyone! Please hold on for a moment. The gold price has changed. Please wait a moment if you haven't made your transaction yet."

All eyes turned toward the large screen. The displayed gold price had just shifted from 235 dollars per ounce to 295 dollars per ounce.

The elderly women still waiting in line outside were even more thrilled. To them, the rising price was a clear signal that it would only go higher!

"Can you hurry up? We're all still waiting out here! Time is money, young people!" one of the elderly women shouted impatiently from outside.

The newlywed couple glanced at each other after hearing about the sudden price jump. They realized something was off. The gold prices were about to skyrocket!

Without wasting another second, the bride quickly added two large, chunky gold necklaces with pendants to her selection.

"Add these, too. Can you calculate the total for us?" she asked.

The staff took out the calculator and calculated the total, taking the weight, quantity, and the newly updated price into account.

"Your total comes to 50 thousand dollars."

"We'll pay by card," the bride said without hesitation.
