“I think they’re pretty good. What’s the matter?”
“If you think they’re good, then eat more and don’t talk so much!”
“You!” Yelena’s eyes grew wide. “What does it matter to you if I eat more or less? I was just mentioning
the truth. Your husband hasn’t said anything yet, so why do you have to be so sensitive about it?”
“Relax, Ms. Yelena!” Dwayne chimed in while holding his glass of wine. “Cordelia was just being nice
by telling you to eat more. She’s just worried that you might get hungry later. Come, let’s cheer!”
Yelena harrumphed coldly and finished her wine in one gulp.
Cordelia was still fuming with anger. Her jaw was tightly set, and she clenched her fists so tightly that
they were shaking.
She turned her head around to look at Marcus. He was still calm despite being insulted by Yelena, and
she felt a little sorry for him.
She must be the reason Yelena called him here. He should not be here at all. He did not have to go
through all the humiliation. This dinner party was not the same as the banquet last time. They could
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsneak away through the side door last time, but there were a few people here right now. It was not
good for them to sneak away in front of them.
Cordelia lowered her voice and apologized, “Honey, I’m sorry…”
Marcus chuckled lightly and grabbed her hand tightly. Then, he placed her favorite meatball on her
plate.
He listened as the people there started discussing stocks.
Oriental, Radeon, and Weston…
He frowned slightly as a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
“Guys, are you interested in these stocks?”
His low magnetic voice stunned them as if a stone was thrown into the water and caused ripples, so
they all turned their heads to look at him.
“Umm, do you know stocks as well, Mr. Grist?”
“Heh, there’s no way he would know about it,” said Yelena. “I think he doesn’t even know how to write
their names.”
“Yelena!” shouted Cordelia. “My husband reads a lot of finance news! And he knows a lot of languages,
right, honey?”
Marcus chuckled. “These stocks are unpopular, but they’re considered potential stocks. You can
consider investing in them.”
The rest of the people looked at each other. After a short silence, someone smirked and said, “Actually,
we don’t intend to invest in them. I’ve studied the general market trend. These stocks aren’t potential
stocks. It’s more suitable to call them a sunset industry! Hahaha!”
Yelena joined them and laughed happily. While laughing, she looked at Cordelia and Marcus mockingly.
“A former prisoner is versed in investment? I’d rather believe that a sow can climb a tree!”
“Haha…”
“Cranes is the most popular right now. Those who don’t buy this stock are going to lose all their
money!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCordelia bit her lips and lowered her head.
Marcus did not really care about it. After they finished laughing, he grabbed her hand and prepared to
bring her away.
He turned around and said, “I’ll give you guys some advice.” Although he was smiling, his smile did not
reach his eyes. “Cranes isn’t as good as it seems to be. In short, investment is risky. We should be
careful. If you’re not careful enough, you’ll lose all your money. I hope you guys will take care of
yourself.”
The people in the room were stunned. As they watched both of them go away, they let out derisive
peals of laughter again.
“Hah! He knows nothing about investment!”
“That’s right! I guess that he didn’t even graduate from primary school. Ms. Yelena, I really admire your
sister’s courage. After all, it takes a lot to marry a man like that!”
“Come! Let’s continue!”
However, David fell silent. He thought for a while and secretly called his friend at the stock exchange
firm.
