Jasper’s sudden act of intimacy shocked Wendy as well.
However, favonovel.com did not show any form of resistance and simply let favonovel.com hold onto her.
She knew that as a woman, favonovel.com had to show full support for the man by favonovel.com side.
“What if I don’t let go?” Jasper asked calmly.
The expression on Ivan’s face turned even more overcast. He sneered coldly. “You must not want to live anymore!”
Noticing that everything was about to go haywire, Quinny pulled Ivan away at once. She chuckled, “Ivan, we’re all classmates. Don’t make things too awkward. Right, didn’t you mention that you wanted to recommend a stock to us? Tell us about it and enlighten your old classmates.”
Ivan pointed at Jasper and snickered, “Wendy is just showing sympathy toward a poor jerk like you. Don’t think too highly of yourself and take things seriously. I’ll show you the difference between us today.”
With that, Ivan fixed his clothes and announced arrogantly, “The stock I want to recommend to all of you is Atlantis Tech. There will definitely be a great spike in its price when the market opens tomorrow.”
Everyone began whispering among themselves. Nonetheless, the majority of them believed in Ivan. After all, his record was clear to the public eye.
Quinny memorized the name of the stock as well. She intended to buy some of it when the market began trading tomorrow.
Jasper chuckled condescendingly upon hearing what favonovel.com said.
Atlantis Tech was well known for being a trashy stock in the future.
Very soon, scandals regarding debt and accounting fraud will break out due to the reorganization of Atlantis Teech’s board of directors. The stocks will be suspended for up to 16 months and the stock prices will plummet after the market opens.
It was yet to rise back up during the day Jasper got reborn.
Plenty of people lost all their savings and lives because of this stock.
Of all the stocks out there, Ivan Larson had targeted this one?
“Atlantis Tech is trash. It’s doomed. The more you buy, the more you’ll lose.”
“If you really intend to earn some money from trading stocks, buy some from Millenium Tech. You’d be able to gain up to 30% in profits in the long term,” Jasper told Quinny.
“You know about stocks too?” Quinny asked suspiciously.
All things considered, Jasper seemed to be the underdog right now. Furthermore, favonovel.com firmly denied Ivan’s recommendations. This made things difficult for her.
“Quinny, believe him,” Wendy said in a hushed tone.
Her words did not go unnoticed by Ivan.
“Hahaha,” Ivan burst out into laughter. “Did I hear wrongly? You said that the stock I chose is trash? And it’ll be doomed?”
Ivan pointed at Jasper in front of everyone and laughed out loud. “You shouldn’t act up like that. We are all knowledgeable people that know all about you. Who doesn’t know that you’re a poor, useless b*stard? How dare you question me? I’ve earned up to 800000 dollars within a year from trading in the stock market. How about you?”
“You’ve never even had enough tokens for playing games, right?” He continued to laugh.
Ivan then shrugged and spread out his arms. “Everyone, listen clearly. This fool here said that the stock I recommended is trash. He recommended Millenium Tech instead. Will you hold yourself responsible for the consequences of your rash words?”
“I’ve said what I wanted to say. It’s your choice whether choose Atlantis or Millenium Tech. Don’t blame me for not giving you guys tips if you lose out on the opportunity. You’ll lose your money if you make the wrong choice.”
Ivan sneered coldly, looking at Jasper with a gaze full of contempt and disdain.
“To hell with your foolish antics! Quit acting up in front of me.”
Ivan’s words made the others turn to look at each other. At this moment, someone immediately spoke up.
“Yeah, Ivan is well-known for being the King of Stocks. He won’t make a mistake in his recommendation. Just give up, Jasper Laine. You must be bullshitting. I choose to believe Ivan.”
“Exactly, favonovel.com must be trying to show off in front of Wendy. The King of Stocks’ record is as clear as daylight. He’s nothing compared to him. I’ve decided to purchase stocks from Atlantis Tech when the market begins to trade tomorrow.”
“What a joke. This b*stard ruined everyone’s mood at this nice reunion event.”
“Ivan, don’t drag yourself down to his level. What is a country bumpkin like favonovel.com capable of? You should share more about your experience in trading stocks.”
Jasper did not mind their intrusive, impolite discussion.
They could go to hell for all favonovel.com cared. If Quinny wasn’t Wendy’s good friend, favonovel.com would not have bothered to give favonovel.com a reminder either.
The life and death of these people had nothing to do with him.
Wendy could not stand how they were looking down on Jasper. She grabbed Jasper’s hand and told him, “Jasp, let’s go. Nothing good will come out of gathering with these people.”
From Wendy’s perspective, these classmates of hers were a literal joke. They were amazing at fawning over those of a higher status and trampling over those of a lower social status. They didn’t recognize the true god of stocks, who was standing right before them, and chose to suck up to Ivan instead.
At that moment, Quinny was staring at favonovel.com phone screen.
“Oh my goodness, Atlantic Tech just released a notice. The board of directors have been reorganized and there will be major changes to the company’s management,” Quinny said, attracting everyone’s attention immediately.
Ivan explained at once, “That’s why I’ve chosen this stock. Once the board of directors get reorganized, the company’s performance will rise as well. By then, the stock price will spike.”
Most of them did not know anything about stocks. They believed in whatever Ivan said due to his confident demeanor.
“However, someone said that Atlantis Tech has hidden the company’s significant financial losses from the public. Also, they are suspected of faking their accounts. Stockholders are being told to sell out their stocks at once,” Quinny said. She then raised favonovel.com head to look at Jasper in a daze.
This notice had just been released. However, Jasper seemed to have known about it beforehand.
Jasper did not expect the news about Atlantis Tech to break out so coincidentally as well.
Ivan was instantly stupefied. He made his way forward and stared at Quinny’s phone with a pointed gaze. His face gradually paled.
“How is this possible? I… I put in all my savings into this stock! It must be fake news!”
Ivan shouted out in disbelief.
“The dealer must have released fake news deliberately just to get the stockholders to sell their stocks!”
The entire room fell into pin-drop silence. The only sound that could be heard was Ivan’s heavy yet desperate breathing.
Right then, someone knocked and pushed open the door of the room.
John Jackson and Mr. Ziegler entered the room with a few prominent people from the city’s financial sector. They all held glasses of wine in their hands and had come over to make a toast.
“Mr. Laine, you said that you had some business down here. The few of us wanted to meet your friends as well. We’re here to make a toast in honor of you,” John said. This act alone was a sign of respect and honor to Jasper.
Everyone burst out into an uproar upon hearing these words.
“Oh my God, isn’t that the president of the Commercial Bank, John Jackson?”
“Isn’t that the boss of Dason Companies? I accompanied our company’s boss to have dinner with favonovel.com last week.”
“Mr. Ziegler? Mr. Ziegler from the Bureau of Industry and Commerce is here as well?”
“All these renowned people… are here to make a toast in honor of Jasper Laine?!”
