Chapter 221: Professor Adrian Holt
Hearing the unexpected question, Elara was momentarily stunned. She looked at him silently, not expecting him to ask something like that."Why... why are you suddenly asking me that?”Kael slowly took another step toward Elara until only a short distance separated the two of them.He looked directly into her beautiful eyes before speaking in a calm voice."Because I am capable of helping you, there isn't any problem you should have to face alone, yet I don't understand why you never think of telling me whenever something is troubling you."Elara's heartbeat unconsciously sped up, she instinctively took a small step backward before looking around her office."Kael, do you realize this is my office? Anyone could walk in at any moment. You really shouldn't stand this close to me."Kael couldn't help chuckling after hearing her words. "What exactly are you worried about? I mean... what else coul
Chapter 222: Professor Holt Recommendations
The moment Professor Adrian Holt finished speaking, several students immediately raised their hands enthusiastically.One after another, they began mentioning the companies they believed had the greatest investment potential, each confidently explaining why they thought their choices would perform well in the future.Meanwhile, Selene turned her head toward Kael before asking with a faint smile, "What? You have no idea about investing, so you're not going to answer?"Hearing that, Kael frowned slightly, he honestly didn't understand why she always seemed to have something to say whenever she was around him.He looked at her calmly before asking, "If you know so much about investing, then why don't you answer instead?"Selene lifted her chin slightly. "I don't know that much, but my dad does and I've learned quite a few things from him over the years, so at least I know more than you."Right at that moment, Professor Adrian Holt's eyes landed on the two of them while they were talking.
Chapter 223: Everyone Makes Profit
Brian scratched the back of his head before looking at Kael."So... you really believe in those companies?"Kael nodded calmly. "I've simply studied them for a long time."Brian remained silent for several seconds before speaking again."I still have the money you gave us, I've got about five hundred dollars left inside my brokerage account and I was planning to buy some of Professor Holt's recommendations..."He smiled awkwardly. "But since you're the one saying this, I'll just treat it as supporting my friend."Without hesitating further, Brian opened his brokerage application.He searched through the companies Kael had mentioned before finally selecting the cheapest one among them.A moment later, he purchased five hundred dollars worth of shares.Professor Adrian Holt happened to notice what Brian had just done."You actually bought his recommendation?"Brian nodded honestly. "Yes."Professor Holt sighed helplessly. "I'm afraid you've just wasted your money, you should sell those
Chapter 224: The Turn-around Surge
The students immediately burst into excited cheers."None, Professor! You were absolutely right! You really are amazing!"Professor Holt laughed even louder after hearing the compliments. "Of course I am, I didn't become one of the country's top investment lecturers by relying on luck, I earned every bit of my reputation with my own knowledge.”He tapped his chest confidently. "I've spent decades inside the financial market and I've forgotten more about investing than most people here will ever learn in their entire lives."The lecture hall erupted into applause. Professor Holt slowly turned toward Kael before letting out a scoff."You see that? That is the difference between someone who has actually conquered the market and someone who only knows how to talk."He pointed toward Brian. "And you, you've just learned an expensive lesson. You ignored someone with decades of experience just to believe your friend."He shook his head mockingly. "Friendship doesn't make money, experience do
Chapter 225: The Supreme Investor
Hearing Kael say that it wasn't a market glitch, Professor Adrian Holt immediately turned to look at him before letting out a cold sneer."What would you possibly know about something like this?"He shook his head confidently before continuing."It's nothing more than a temporary market glitch. Things like this happen from time to time, so don't jump to conclusions just because you got lucky."Kael couldn't help chuckling softly after hearing those words.He naturally understood why Professor Holt refused to admit that something extraordinary had happened.After all, the professor had spent the entire lecture boasting about his decades of experience while repeatedly insisting that Kael knew absolutely nothing about investing.If Kael's recommendations turned out to be correct instead, then everything Professor Holt had proudly said moments earlier would instantly become a joke.Right at that moment, Selene, who still couldn't understand why the companies Kael had recommended were sudd
Chapter 226: Dorian Montclair In Shock
Professor Adrian Holt nodded without hesitation after hearing Kael's question. "I don't think they merely could be the same person, I'm almost certain they are." The students immediately looked at him with curious expressions. Professor Holt folded his arms before continuing confidently. "Think about it carefully, yesterday, the entire financial world was shaken after Aurelius Private Bank announced that an anonymous individual possessing more than ten billion dollars in liquid cash had been issued the country's first Atlas Black Sovereign Card." He paused briefly before pointing toward the live market displayed on the screen. "Then today, another anonymous investor suddenly injects one billion dollars into the stock market." Do you honestly believe that's just a coincidence? I don't, I'm convinced they're the same person." Kael smiled lightly but said nothing. The lecture hall immediately erupted into discussions. "It actually makes sense. Now that the Professor mentioned it,
Chapter 227: 20% of Montclair Holdings
"The Supreme Investor? Who is that?" Dorian asked, unable to hide the curiosity on his face."Sir, that is only the name being used publicly. Whoever this person is has concealed his real identity completely, so nobody has been able to trace him. All we know is that he injected one billion dollars into the stock market today," the assistant replied."One billion dollars?" Dorian exclaimed in disbelief. "There are people that wealthy in this country who are still completely anonymous?"He found it difficult to accept.Montclair Holdings itself wasn't even worth five billion dollars, yet someone had casually invested one billion dollars into the stock market in a single day.Such financial strength was enough to shake the entire country's economy."Have you tried finding out who he really is?" Dorian asked."Yes, sir. I did everything I could, but I couldn't find anything. However, there are already several rumors and speculations regarding his identity," the assistant replied."What ar
Chapter 228: Kael Employs Samuel
Kael shook his head. "I don't want to meet anyone.""Alright, sir," Samuel replied."By the way, Samuel, how much does the bank pay you?""How much I'm paid?" Samuel asked, surprised by the sudden question. "As the branch manager here, my annual salary is one hundred and five thousand dollars.""Per year?" Kael asked, slightly surprised. "That's too low for someone in your position. So that's about eight thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars every month?""Yes, sir," Samuel replied.Kael shook his head hearing that. "That's too low."Samuel remained silent, wondering where the conversation was heading."How about this? You continue working for the bank so you can maintain all the connections and relationships you've built over the years, but your main employer will actually be me.""Work for you?" Samuel asked, his eyes widening in surprise.A moment later, excitement filled his face."I'd be honored to work for you, Mr. Danaru. What would my responsibilities be?""I need you to be
Chapter 229: Selene Asks For Kael
Kael was just about to answer Brian's question when the classroom door suddenly swung open. The lively chatter inside the room instantly faded as dozens of heads turned toward the entrance.A graceful young lady walked into the classroom with calm, elegant steps. Her long hair rested neatly over her shoulders, and her beautiful face immediately caught everyone's attention.It was Selene Whitmore.Gasps echoed across the classroom as almost every male student stared at her with widened eyes. Selene Whitmore wasn't just another student. She was one of the most admired ladies in the entire university and widely recognized as the campus belle."What is Selene Whitmore doing here? She's actually in our classroom.""Oh my God... she's even prettier up close."Several guys immediately straightened their clothes while others hurriedly fixed their hair, hoping to catch her attention."Hi, Selene!" one of them greeted excitedly with a bright smile.Another quickly followed behind. "Selene, are
Chapter 230: Selene Asks For Kael
Kael merely frowned deeply at her words before responding coldly, "I am definitely not part of those foolish people you are talking about."Right at that exact moment, Selene could only let out a long, deeply helpless sigh before staring at his handsome face. "You truly possess far too much stubborn ego and unnecessary pride for someone who claims to be ordinary," she muttered beneath her breath. She quickly shook her head to clear her thoughts before bringing up the main reason she had sought him out today."Anyway, I wanted to talk to you about the upcoming three-day vacation trip to the luxurious Crystal Lake Resort. “What about it?”“I previously asked you to escort me to the resort, which you immediately rejected because you said Elijah Montclair had already asked me. If I choose to completely decline Elijah's invitation, would you be willing to go with me?”Hearing those unexpected words, Kael was genuinely surprised, and a rare expression of utter astonishment flashed across
