Olivia Jenkins carried a faint indifference on her beautiful face, calmly saying, “Don’t worry, I won’t bring it up again.” Nor will there be any illusions or extravagant hopes.
If her grandfather ever again encourages her to have a child, she will definitely lie to him without hesitation, no inner struggles or pity will be involved.
Daniel Marshall approached Olivia Jenkins, holding her tightly, and soothing her with a soft voice, “I really mean no harm. All I want is to be together with you forever. Please believe me.”
Olivia shrugged it off, “Honey, I believe you. I will be obedient and not make trouble. I’ll just be a good Mrs. Marshall. It’s late, let’s go to bed.”
“Okay! I’ll hold you in my arms while we sleep!”
Olivia nodded, closing her eyes as she wrapped her arms around Daniel.
Even so, her heart was still lacking warmth.
They were in the closest possible distance, yet their hearts were as distant as the Milky Way.
…
Before the stock market opened, Quiet Video and Light Media both announced their collaboration on a drama variety show crafted by David Jefferson and Will Lee — Irrational Weekends.
The official account of the Marshall Corporation Charity Foundation also re-posted these two announcements, confirming that the collaboration was real.
The Charity Foundation made a special note that the appearance fees of these two stars would all be donated to benefit society.
As the production company, Quiet Video also promised to donate all advertising revenue from the variety show to the Charity Foundation.
For a time, the internet was all abuzz with this news, triggering a meltdown on social media platforms.
Despite this, the discussion about the topic remained at a fever pitch, causing quite a stir.
When the stock market opened, the stock price of Marshall Corporation did not fall, but rather surged. This showed that the price of Marshall Corporation’s stock had not been affected by the rumors about the high-level scandal.
Even the car accident involving the former chairman did not affect the outlook of the Marshall Corporation, as most investors still held confidence in the Corporation.
In the CEO’s office, both Oliver Johnson and Adam Howard were closely watching the stock market trend.
Suddenly, Adam jokingly said, “I wonder if those annoying scoundrels are planning to manipulate Marshall Corporation’s stock price today?”
Daniel, with his eyes slightly squinted, exhaled a ring of smoke.
He cast a sharp glance at Adam, “My aunt’s family shouldn’t be fools. If they, having seen Grace Martinez’s real-name report, can still remain calm without turning on us, I’ll marvel at their tolerance. However, when it comes to profits, that’s the top priority; they won’t protect someone about to be kicked out of the Marshall Corporation.”
Oliver Johnson chimed in with a hint of mockery in his voice, “The nose of the capital market is most sensitive; if anything happens it retreats faster than a rabbit.”
Adam’s face broke into a wild, unrestrained smile, “It’s satisfying to watch! Those jerks had that coming!”
Daniel’s stern features were as perfect as a statue, yet devoid of any expression, sending chills down the spine, “You guys can go now. The stock price will close with a rise of around 5% today, all is calm, there’s nothing to watch anymore.”
Adam raised his brow in a cocky manner, “The stock dipped 1.6% yesterday and skyrocketed today. I made a profit, I’m so happy!”
Daniel cast a glance at Adam, “It’s your turn to treat us to dinner.”
Suppressing a smile, Oliver playfully patted Adam’s shoulder.
Adam nonchalantly agreed, “Sure, just let me know whenever you guys are free. I’m available anytime.”
“It seems like you’ve made quite a bit of money. You must treat us to a meal.” All of a sudden, Oliver gave Adam a knowing look.
With a smirk, Adam pointed at Daniel.
