Life at The Top novel Chapter 62

Jasper’s sudden act of intimacy shocked Wendy as well.

However, she did not show any form of resistance and simply let him hold onto her.

She knew that as a woman, she had to show full support for the man by her side.

“What if I don’t let go?” Jasper asked calmly.

The expression on Ivan’s face turned even more overcast. He sneered coldly. “You must not want to live anymore!”

Noticing that everything was about to go haywire, Quinny pulled Ivan away at once. She chuckled, “Ivan, we’re all classmates. Don’t make things too awkward. Right, didn’t you mention that you wanted to recommend a stock to us? Tell us about it and enlighten your old classmates.”

Ivan pointed at Jasper and snickered, “Wendy is just showing sympathy toward a poor jerk like you. Don’t think too highly of yourself and take things seriously. I’ll show you the difference between us today.”

With that, Ivan fixed his clothes and announced arrogantly, “The stock I want to recommend to all of you is Atlantis Tech. There will definitely be a great spike in its price when the market opens tomorrow.”

Everyone began whispering among themselves. Nonetheless, the majority of them believed in Ivan. After all, his record was clear to the public eye.

Quinny memorized the name of the stock as well. She intended to buy some of it when the market began trading tomorrow.

Jasper chuckled condescendingly upon hearing what he said.

Atlantis Tech was well known for being a trashy stock in the future.

Very soon, scandals regarding debt and accounting fraud will break out due to the reorganization of Atlantis Teech’s board of directors. The stocks will be suspended for up to 16 months and the stock prices will plummet after the market opens.

It was yet to rise back up during the day Jasper got reborn.

Plenty of people lost all their savings and lives because of this stock.

Of all the stocks out there, Ivan Larson had targeted this one?

“Atlantis Tech is trash. It’s doomed. The more you buy, the more you’ll lose.”

“If you really intend to earn some money from trading stocks, buy some from Millenium Tech. You’d be able to gain up to 30% in profits in the long term,” Jasper told Quinny.

“You know about stocks too?” Quinny asked suspiciously.

All things considered, Jasper seemed to be the underdog right now. Furthermore, he firmly denied Ivan’s recommendations. This made things difficult for her.

“Quinny, believe him,” Wendy said in a hushed tone.

Her words did not go unnoticed by Ivan.

“Hahaha,” Ivan burst out into laughter. “Did I hear wrongly? You said that the stock I chose is trash? And it’ll be doomed?”

Ivan pointed at Jasper in front of everyone and laughed out loud. “You shouldn’t act up like that. We are all knowledgeable people that know all about you. Who doesn’t know that you’re a poor, useless b*stard? How dare you question me? I’ve earned up to 800000 dollars within a year from trading in the stock market. How about you?”

“You’ve never even had enough tokens for playing games, right?” He continued to laugh.

Ivan then shrugged and spread out his arms. “Everyone, listen clearly. This fool here said that the stock I recommended is trash. He recommended Millenium Tech instead. Will you hold yourself responsible for the consequences of your rash words?”

“I’ve said what I wanted to say. It’s your choice whether choose Atlantis or Millenium Tech. Don’t blame me for not giving you guys tips if you lose out on the opportunity. You’ll lose your money if you make the wrong choice.”

Ivan sneered coldly, looking at Jasper with a gaze full of contempt and disdain.

“To hell with your foolish antics! Quit acting up in front of me.”

“Yeah, Ivan is well-known for being the King of Stocks. He won’t make a mistake in his recommendation. Just give up, Jasper Laine. You must be bullshitting. I choose to believe Ivan.”
“Exactly, he must be trying to show off in front of Wendy. The King of Stocks’ record is as clear as daylight. He’s nothing compared to him. I’ve decided to purchase stocks from Atlantis Tech when the market begins to trade tomorrow.”
