Making 236
Inside the headquarters building of the Wyatt Group, a conference room was upied by an oval
meeting table with three individuals seated around it.
One of them was James.
The other two elders were around the same age as James,
One had grey temples, a sharp gaze, and a short grey beard, dressed in a traditional suit,
appearing stern and formal.
This man was Liam, the chairman of the Rich Electronics Group and the patriarch of the Anderson
family.
The other man, wearing a brown suit with a tir, looked refined with a full head of ck hair, despite
being over fifty.
He had a focused look, wore sses, and exuded an air of schrly elegance.
He was David, the chairman of the Hose Pharmaceuticals and the patriarch of the Roy family.
Besides the three of them, a middle–aged female manager dressed in a professional outfit stood
respectfully to the side.
The top leaders of the three major conglomerates, meeting together at the Wyatt Group’s
headquarters, indicated that significant matters were afoot
They were all focused on the massive LED screen on the wall, which disyed the international
stock market indices
Among the numerouspany stock tickers, the stocks of the Wyatt Group, Rich Electronics
Group, and Hose Pharmaceuticals stood out prominently like three galloping ck horses.
Their stock prices were leading the pack, upying the top three spots in terms of growth.
Meanwhile, the stock of the Horizon Group, which they jointly targeted, only ranked tenth in growth.
Whenpared to the rise in their own stocks and trading volumes, the Horizon Group’s figures
seemed insignificant.
“It’s astonishing. Ourpany stocks surged 500% overnight. Thebined trading volume of the
threepanies has already reached 14 billion dors!” James eximed, voicing his amazement
to the two other leaders.
“This is highly unusual. Why did only ourpanies‘ stocks skyrocket and not others?” Liam
mused, suspicion clouding his
eyes.
David looked at James and Liam, voicing his concern, “Could it be the work of Graham?”
“That’s impossible. Graham alone doesn’t have such vast funds. Even if youbined the Macy,
Bates, and Jenson families, they couldn’t muster up 12-14 billion dors.
“Besides, I had Benny warn the Macy, Bates, and Jenson families just yesterday. He told them they
shouldn’t cooperate with Graham. They wouldn’t dare defy me after that warning.”
James dered, addressing both men.
“But who else would invest such massive amounts in our stocks without an ulterior motive?” Liam
persisted, still puzzled
James turned his attention to the female manager in professional attire and inquired, “Manager
Zoey, were you able to identify the mysterious buyer behind the surge in our stocks?”
The manager replied, “Chairman, I reached out to our brokerage firm. But the purchases came from
a high–security ount at Juliss Bank. We couldn’t identify the owner of the ount.”
This revtion made the trio even more suspicious.
“Could it be some international financial tycoon trying to make a quick buck off ourpanies?”
Liam spected,
David adjusted his sses, focusing on the screen disying the fluctuating stock index, “The
Horizon Group’s stock, which we’ve inted, has reached its peak. We should cash out now.
“Moreover, our stocks are also at an unprecedented high. We can liquidate a portion for further
company development.”
James and Liam exchanged nces, both seeming to agree with David’s strategy.
“Alright, let’s start by selling off the Horizon Group’s stocks Liam decided, taking out his phone.
“Hello, Donny? Sell all our Horizon Group stocks now,”
David too called his manager, giving instructions to offload all their Horizon Group shares.
James instructed Manager Zoey, “Have our team start selling off the Horizon Group shares
immediately.”
She nodded in acknowledgment, “Understood, Chairman, and promptly made a phone call.
As the three major conglomerates started collectively selling off the Horizon Group shares, the LED
screen on the wall showed a steep decline in its stock value, resembling a cliff’s edge.
Seeing the Field Group’s stock plummet, James, Liam, and David exchanged satisfied nces,
smirks evident on their faces.
This setback in the Horizon Group’s stock was equivalent to cutting off the Field family’s financing
through the stock market for their CBD project.
However, just as the trio reveled in their sessful sabotage of the Horizon Group’s stock,
something unexpected happened.
The stock values of the Wyatt Group, Rich Electronics Group, and Hose Pharmaceuticals, as if
orchestrated in unison, started to plummet.
The decline was just as severe as the Horizon Group’s stock.
From a drop of 100% to 200%, 300%, 400%, and then 500% in mere minutes, all the gains
vanished, returning the stocks to their initial levels.
And the drop didn’t stop there.
It continued until it reached a staggering 600% decline.
James, Liam, David, and Manager Zoey sat in the conference room, jaws dropping in disbelief
After what felt like an eternity, James, regaining hisposure, looked at Liam and David, blurting
out, “What on earth just happened?
“Why did our stocks take such a terrifying hit?”
To him, it wasn’t just frightening–it was aplete nightmare.
Both Liam and David were equally battled.
All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.
Just minutes ago, their stocks were on a phenomenal rise.
?
They had even nned–to–cash in a significant amount for thepanies‘ further development.
Now, not only did they stand to lose the gains, but they were also on the brink of incurring massive
losses
It dawned on them that the recent surge in their stocks had been a calcted move all along.
由53%
It mirrored their strategy–buying a significant amount of Horizon Group stocks, inting the price,
then selling them off at their peak, thereby destabilizing the stock’s value.
“Could it really be Graham’s doing?” Liam spected, his doubts once again pointing towards
Graham.
However, both James and David found this imusible since Graham simply couldn’t have had
such vast resources.
Just then, Manager Zoey in the conference room eximed, “Look! The Horizon Group’s stock is
starting to rise!”
James, Liam, and David immediately turned their gaze to the screen. Indeed, the Horizon Group’s
stock, which had just experienced a cliff–like drop, was soaring rapidly.
It rose by 10%, 50%, then a staggering 100%.
“This rascal made a fortune from our stock, hammered our stock’s value, and is now stepping in to
rescue the Horizon Group’s stock. Even if it isn’t Graham behind this, it’s definitely someone
connected to him.”
James said, a cold glint in his eyes.
“We should also step in and stabilize our stocks, Liam suggested.
Both James and David nodded in agreement.
They then each instructed their teams to start buying back their ownpany’s shares
Each of them poured in billions to stabilize their stocks.
However, to their astonishment, even after investing 2 billion dors, their stocks didn’t rise.
In fact, after a 600% decline, they plunged a further 100%.
The reason? Someone had dumped shares worth 2 billion dors onto the market.
With this sudden decline, the 200 million dors James, Liam, and David had just poured in to
stabilize the stock had evaporated.
DHO
They realized that their opponent had strategically withheld some shares and dumped them only
after they started their
mission, catching thempletely off guard.
rescue
The adversary’s deliberate strategy made James and his partners livid,
Not only did this person make a killing off their stocks, but they also managed to siphon off another
200 million dors. Cunning as a fox and ruthlessly cold–hearted, this was undoubtedly the most
formidable enemy they had ever faced.
James, Liam, and David were seething with rage. If only they could identify this shadowy figure,
they would erase lim from the face of the earth.
