Chapter 99: Praising Steven
Cecilia suddenly appeared. She had stayed here with Emma last night to give Elena some peace of mind.
She walked over to Elena and carefully draped a shawl over her. "Auntie, just leave it to me. Don’t worry."
Mary glanced at her disdainfully and said, "Do you even know what it means to invest? If I gave you money, you would probably use it just to buy a couple of cans of baby formula. Do you understand what investing even is?"
Elena also tried to persuade Cecilia, "Cecilia, you really shouldn’t trouble yourself with this. Just enjoy a happy life with Emma."
Cecilia didn’t reply but instead opened her phone and showed Elena the stock page. It showed that her investment of three million yesterday had already gone up to three hundred and ten thousand today! In one night, it had increased by a full one hundred thousand!
Elena opened her mouth wide in astonishment. Meanwhile, Mary was also just as shocked as she looked over. "This... this is impossible!"
Cecilia took back her phone and thought for a moment before speaking, "The government can’t monopolize the beauty industry, much less by the Anderson family. In Star City, the only possible monopoly you could achieve would be in a collaboration with the Lawrence family. Their business spans globally and excels in every aspect, but Mrs. Brut hasn’t announced any partnership with the Lawrence family. This only means one thing."
Mary was puzzled. "What thing?"
"It means the Lawrence family had rejected her. Whether it’s due to market trends, quality, or future prospects, they have turned her down, so this business can’t succeed."
