Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 371

Forget it. That's enough for today. I can't rush this.

That evening, Owen called. "How much did you put in today?"

"Twenty million, but it still didn't hit the circuit breaker."

"That's normal. It's a massive stock."

Otherwise, he would have stopped Mira from raising so much capital earlier.

Even though it was only internal fundraising, Solflare Entertainment was incredibly wealthy now. The top executives had practically become multimillionaires.

"Since Central Offshore Energy can absorb this much capital, I plan to go all in tomorrow to avoid any unforeseen complications."

Owen thought for a moment. "If you don't want to attract attention, it's better to split it over two days."

"It's fine. I'll use another account."

"But the impact on the stock will be exactly the same."

"Alright, I'll play it by ear."

Owen didn't push the issue. It shouldn't be a big problem.

When the market opened the next day, Mira checked the charts. There wasn't much difference from yesterday, but the downward slide had stopped.

She knew the massive injection of funds yesterday had caught investors' attention.

If she continued to pour money in, even just a few million dollars, and the curve kept trending upward, people would assume it had bottomed out and start buying.

Once a massive crowd followed suit and bought in the next day, her profit margins would be severely thinned.

Since Central Offshore Energy was such a money pit, she decided to take a risk today and throw in the remaining three billion dollars all at once.

The stock instantly hit the daily upper limit.

A swarm of investors would undoubtedly follow suit tomorrow, but Mira's mind was already at ease.

Pumping money into such a sluggish market was like buying the dip. The earlier she got in, the bigger the future payoff.

From then on, aside from checking the stock market once a day, Mira dedicated as much time as possible to her studies.

Wesley was different in this life, too. He hadn't paid Mara any attention, seemingly pouring all his focus into his studies and helping out at his family's company in his spare time.

However, none of that concerned Mira.

"As long as you haven't fallen behind, it's fine. It's completely normal to be surpassed in one exam. Just do your best and focus on studying from here on out."

This also served as a wake-up call for Mira.

If the college entrance exam was a ruthless battlefield, then Aethelgard University—her target—was the absolute apex of that warzone.

The admission quota for Melvion City was only a few dozen students each year. One wrong move, and she wouldn't get in, let alone be accepted into her ideal major.

She needed to dedicate even more time to her studies.

Mira didn't want to attend Aethelgard University just for its top-tier national ranking. Her primary draw was its cutting-edge computer science curriculum and its unparalleled faculty.

Elara rubbed her eyes. "I know, I know all of that. I'm just worried that I won't be able to get into the same university as you."

"Just study hard and don't stress too much. You'll learn better if you stay relaxed. Even if we don't end up at the same school, we'll still be best friends. Don't put so much pressure on yourself."
