Elder Mrs. Hunt sighed and did not notice the change in Mr. Livingstoneâs expression. She continued, âIf you doubt someone, donât use them. If you do use them, donât doubt them. Besides, business involves profit and loss, so itâs normal for Nora to suffer occasional losses on projects. After all, this is her first time running a business. Donât think that you can look down on herâ¦. her former friends may be unreliable, but with me her future friends will definitely be reliableâ¦â
However, Mr. Livingstone was still staring at the phone. When he saw the price set, he was stunned.
His eyes widened as he stared at the phone in disbelief, thinking he must have seen it wrong.
It was okay if he didnât fall. After all, it couldnât keep falling, but did it really go up?
Besides, the price was fluctuating â would it rise again after a while?
Mr. Livingstone swallowed hard and looked up.
Elderly Mrs. Hunt continued speaking. âSo, when you see Nora later, donât mention this matter any more. Treat it as if it were the pastâ¦.. Come on!â
By the time Elder Mrs. Hunt was speaking to Mr. Livingstone, she had already entered the presidentâs elevator.
Ding!
The elevator reached the top floor.
As soon as Elder Mrs. Hunt finished speaking, the door opened. Celine stood outside. When she saw Elder Mrs. Hunt, she showed a respectful expression. âMrs. Huntâ¦â
Elderly Mrs. Hunt nodded and asked, âWhereâs Nora?â
Celine said, âSheâs at the board meeting.â
âBoard meeting? Are those people really going to make things difficult for her?â When Elder Mrs. Hunt heard this, she became nervous. She immediately turned around and headed for the meeting room. âLetâs go take a look around. Nora is so stupid and has never experienced such things. She will definitely be frightened by others. May she not embarrass our family again!â
His words were unpleasant, but his steps were quick. It was as if she feared that if she took a slower step, Nora would feel aggrieved.
Celine followed close behind her. âMrs. Hunt, what are you talking about? Everyone in the company is very happy now. They canât wait to praise President Smith. President Smith has seen all kinds of situations. Itâs okay to have little conflicts.â
Elder Mrs. Hunt was stunned. âA little conflict? The price of gold has fallen so much today, wonât those directors skin her alive?â
Celine was also stunned. âHavenât you seen the price of gold today?â
Elder Mrs. Hunt was puzzled. âNo, I havenât seen it.
She really didnât want to see it. Just looking at it made her heart ache a little.
Even though the money was nothing more than a number to her, she couldnât help but feel uncomfortable watching her fortune evaporate.
The next moment, however, Celine smiled, âMrs. Hunt, gold has gone up today! Whatâs more, the price has gone up 100%! In the last half hour, it has risen again by $10. In addition⦠We have finally received privileged news today that the price of gold will continue to rise in the future!â
Elderly Mrs. Hunt: â????â
She was stunned and stopped dead in her tracks. She looked at Celine in confusion. âYou mean the price went up?â
âYes! Itâs gone up!â
Celine was grinning from ear to ear. A moment ago, she was so hostile to Nora, but now, she was so protective of her. Moreover, because of her past suspicions and betrayals, Celine felt even more guilty towards Nora.
She said, âEveryone made fun of President Smith and misunderstood her, but President Smith did not complain about it to us. Instead, she made us wait two days. Today, finally, she slapped us with the truth. Everyone in the company recognizes President Smithâs ability-she has connections in the business industry! Everyone is now supporting President Smith.
Elder Mrs. Hunt: â????â
She sensed that President Smith in Celineâs mouth was not the same person as the lazy granddaughter-in-law at home. She couldnât help but ask, âWith Smith are you talking about Joel or Nora?â
Celine: ââ¦Noraâs, President Smithâs!â
Elder Mrs. Hunt felt a little confused â had Nora really made the right decision?
She couldnât help but turn her head and look at Mr. Livingstone again. She saw that he looked anxious and was talking on the phone in a corner. His voice was very low. âWhatâs the matter with you, Iâve given you so much money and now you do this to me? You guessed it⦠You know youâre going to get hit by a car when you go out tomorrow! You liar! Give me my money back or Iâll sue youâ¦â
The furious Mr. Livingstone hung up the phone. When he looked up and saw Elderly Mrs. Hunt, his face instantly turned red. He said, âMrs. Hunt, I⦠I was wrong this time. But you are right. Everyone makes mistakes. Itâs normal to have losses and victories. Donât worry, Iâm sure Iâll take care of future projects carefully! I will also help you to assist Miss Smith well.â
When Elder Mrs. Hunt heard this, she lowered her head and sighed. âMr. Livingstone, our familyâs business is profit and loss. I canât be angry with my own family, can I? After all, we are family, but itâs different for outsidersâ¦â
With that, he looked at Celine. âTake all the unimportant people outside. Donât disturb President Smithâs meeting.â
Celine smiled and regained her usual calm and gentleness. She nodded her head. âYes!â

In the meeting room.
The shareholders had already seen the documents Nora had thrown on the table.
Noraâs fingers tapped gently on the table as she slowly said, âYouâve all seen it. These are the transaction records of our recent gold investment. You can see that Roger first bought 100 million for the company, and then bought 400 million in his own name. Afterwards, the gold depreciated, but he found a way to sell the gold in his hands to the company for 400 million. This is equivalent to the company buying 500 million worth of gold. I wonder what everyone thinks of this.â
Roger immediately stood up and looked at Nora in disbelief. The smile on his face finally disappeared. He narrowed his eyes and smiled, âNora, are you kidding me? Besides, how can you have access to my bank account records? You canât use something so baseless to slander me.â
âReally?â
Nora rested her chin on her fingers and yawned. She really had woken up too early. Then she smiled and said, âYou may have forgotten how I can get your bank records. In addition to being a doctor, Iâm also a hacker.â
