Chapter 572

Daniel Marshall’s hawk-like eyes unblinkingly stared at the computer screen.

The stock price was plummeting too quickly; it was indeed unusual.

Yet, Daniel Marshall’s handsome features did not show the slightest fluctuation of emotion, he calmly ordered, “Buy as much as we have money for.”

Oliver Johnson’s expression turned solemn, “Daniel, someone is trying to manipulate Marshall Corporation’s stock price, creating panic.”

Adam Howard pursed his lips, asking, “Shall we investigate who is pulling the strings behind the scenes?”

Daniel Marshall calmly responded, “No need, it’s all within my expectations. No matter how much the person behind this is selling, buy it all.”

“Yes sir!”

Without any coordination, both Oliver Johnson and Adam Howard immediately made calls.

Daniel Marshall was already prepared for this battle; as soon as he gave the order, their traders would spring into action.

The funds were also already prepared. No matter how much was dumped, they could absorb it all.

…

When Secretary Saunders notified Grace Martinez to come to the CEO’s office, she didn’t immediately go, but first made a call to James Marshall.

After a few seconds of silence, James said, “If he wants you to go, then go. Answer whatever he asks.”

Grace was a little anxious and her mind a bit chaotic, “He’s already sidelined me by calling me to his office. What does he want to known?”

“I’m not sure, but you must be cautious with Daniel Marshall, don’t fall into his trap.”

“I understand. I must hang up now, if I’m late, he will become suspicious.”

James Marshall said gravely, “Grace, maintain your composure, don’t let him intimidate you. Daniel has a way of manipulating people; be wary of him.”

“I understand.”

After hanging up the call, Grace rushed towards the CEO’s office.

Daniel Marshall raised his head, his deep eyes fixed on Grace, “Please have a seat!”

Grace’s face lit up with a charming smile, but her cunning eyes were fixed on Daniel.

Yet, Daniel’s extraordinarily handsome face showed no expression, leaving one unable to guess what he was thinking.

Grace felt a slight pang in her heart, but maintained a smile on her face, “Thank you, Chief Daniel Marshall!”

“Don’t be so quick to thank me, what I’m about to say, or show you, might upset you.”

Grace’s smile deepened, “Chief Marshall, you’re quite humorous!”

Daniel stared inscrutably at Grace, not missing any of her facial expressions.

All of a sudden, Daniel took out a paper bag and handed it to Grace, “Have a look inside.”

She pursed her lips slightly, her eyes narrowing.

After hesitating for a few seconds under Daniel’s gaze, Grace opened the bag.

In an instant, what came into view was an intimate photo of her and James Marshall.

Grace’s face instantly changed, her expression uneasy, she stared at Daniel and asked coldly, “What are you saying, Chief Daniel Marshall?”

Daniel looked at Grace with immense interest, “Manager Martinez, you haven’t looked at everything. Finish looking, then we can talk.”

Fed up, Grace asked, “Does Chief Daniel enjoy infringing upon other’s privacy so much?”

Daniel scoffed, his eyes full of mockery, “Do you want me to address you as aunt or Manager Martinez? Oh wait, I already have an aunt. Perhaps, there are one too many unacknowledged aunts like you.”

A surge of uncontrollable rage swelled within her, but Grace held it back.

The corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously, her complexion turning unsightly.

During an eerie silence, Grace took the rest of the items out of the bag and examined them on the table.

There were not only records of the two abortions she had for James, but also an extensive record of their secret affair, complete with evidence.

Frustrated and having no room for rebuttal, Grace felt her heart turning colder with each passing moment.
