Chapter 783



.

The Imperial League could only be accessed through a special encrypted web page. If one did not log in, one could not see the information inside.

Nora was not interested in the economy in the past, so she did not care much about this organization. However, since Old Maddy said last time that he wanted King to support her unconditionally, she had started to pay attention to the Imperial League.

In order not to miss any important information, Nora had written a little program. When someone sent a message, she would receive a notification on her phone.

That’s why she had received that message.

Seeing that message, Nora suddenly raised her head and looked around.

Her first reaction was that King was watching her. Otherwise, why would the message about the gold be sent directly to her?

Wasn’t that too much of a coincidence?

She had never believed there were coincidences in this world.

Yet she didn’t know anyone else in the Hunt Corporation. So what was going on?

She frowned and was stunned because she couldn’t understand.

This behavior created an illusion in Howard, making him believe that Nora knew nothing. He smiled and said, “Nora, I don’t think you know what to do! That’s right. I know this is the decision Justin had made earlier. You don’t want to overturn it, but things have already turned out this way. You might as well face it positively. Besides, this is a company, not a place for you to decide emotionally. Nora, I hope you can wake up. My suggestion is to leave the gold lying in our hands. Otherwise, if the price of gold continues to fall, you could lose all your capital.” Hearing this, Mr. Livingstone pursed his lips.

He could tell that, among the board members, the others still considered themselves polite and kind to Nora. Howard, however, was problematic.

But considering this, it was actually a good thing for him. If the people on the board were not like Howard, what was the point of their existence?

Therefore, he had to make the atmosphere more tense and create some business conflicts. Only then would Elder Mrs. Hunt and Nora be able to trust him.

Therefore, Mr. Livingstone kept his mouth shut. He did not speak and planned to act accordingly.

Howard again made things difficult. Nora returned at last to her thoughts. She decided not to think about it anymore. She looked at Mr. Livingstone and saw that his eyes were fixed elsewhere. He had no intention of speaking at all.

Logically, he should have helped her.

Nora understood something. She pursed her lips and raised her almond eyes to look at Howard. “There’s no need to sell it now. Gold reserves always go up and down. That’s normal.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Howard grimaced. “Normal? Gold reserves in the past never fell by more than a third! If we don’t sell them now, we’ll lose a lot of money! Nora, you don’t know about gold reserves, do you? You haven’t bought them before either. You don’t know what it means? Do you need me to explain it to you?”

Every word was directed at her.

Nora laughed softly. “You don’t need to explain it. Although I don’t understand it very well, let me ask you, when Justin was around, did he ever make a wrong decision?”

Everyone shut their mouths.

Justin was a business genius, and he didn’t lose money doing business. The company lost money on some projects, but they were the ones who insisted on doing them, not Justin. Sometimes Justin would make them keep their dignity and let them do it, so they lost money.

This resulted in profit and loss on the account. But in reality, Justin was brilliant on his own and had never lost money.

When Howard heard this, he was also perplexed. However, his eyes averted and he said with a smile, “Nora, Justin is a business genius. We don’t deny it. Over the years, the Hunts have moved up a few rungs under his leadership. However, futures have changed a lot in recent years. In addition, gold has started to fall rapidly these past few days. If Justin were still around, the losses would have stopped a long time ago…. Geez!”

With that, he revealed a false look of sadness.

Nora narrowed her eyes. “Yeah, let’s leave it at that!”

With that, she didn’t give Howard time to speak again. He looked at the others and said, “It’s a project set up by Justin. No more questions about what needs to be done. It’s getting late. Drop all your projects and go to lunch.”

Actually, today’s board meeting was for Nora to meet everyone.

There was no need to say everything. Besides, with Nora’s words to Howard earlier, everyone thought of Justin’s glorious accomplishments and dared not speak any more, so everyone stood up. “Good!”

They all handed Nora the project books they had ordered and left one after another. A thick stack of information quickly appeared in front of Nora.

When everyone left, Howard stood up with a smile. He had long since been sidelined by Justin and only took it upon himself to buy some gold reserves.

Howard said, “Nora…”

“In the company, please call me President Smith.” Nora interrupted him, “This is not a family business. We’re just business partners here, not family.”

She narrowed her eyes. “Well, President Smith. I advise you to take the gold reserves seriously. You may not know how much Hunt Corporation has bought. It’s not a small investment of a few hundred thousand dollars or a few million…. It’s tens of millions of dollars!”

Nora raised her eyebrows. “I understand.”

Seeing her calm demeanor, Howard didn’t know what to say and could only walk away in anger.

When he left, Nora got up, picked up the stack of documents and walked out.

Mr. Livingstone followed her. He wanted to say something, but Nora told him directly, “You don’t have to come tomorrow.”

She didn’t want an assistant like that.

And when it came to assistants…

Where was Lawrence?

Why did Lawrence disappear after Justin faked his death?

For some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Sean was still with the company, but he had always been in charge of the outside world. Lawrence was in charge of Justin’s internal affairs. Logically, since he had faked his death, Justin would definitely let Lawrence come back.Had something happened to him?

He thought back to the explosion.

Nora suddenly felt suddenly upset. She just hugged the stack of papers and went back to her house.

When she left, Howard came out of the room and glared at her.

This time, Nora was definitely going to lose.

This was because Justin had asked her to buy $15 million in gold back then, but she had secretly changed it to $80 million! The other 65 million was for him alone.

Justin had sharp eyes and had always been good at reading things.

However, Justin was gone. There was no proof. It was up to him to decide whether he had helped the company buy 15 million or 80 million.

That was why, two days ago, when gold had started to fall rapidly, he had transferred the gold he had personally bought with $65 million to the company.

Fortunately, it would only be the company that would make a loss.

He had also made up his loss with the company.

If it fell again, it would fall by more than half.

If that was the case, Nora could not afford to lose 40 to 50 million!

This had nothing to do with him. He had suggested that they sell it at today’s meeting. It was Nora who wouldn’t listen, so…. I was just waiting to see Nora make a fool of herself!!!!
