Chapter 025 – The Storage Problem
*****“That was... harder than I expected.”Ronan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled.He had solved three problems with a single lie.First, his claim that he could make $50 billion tomorrow gave him a convenient explanation for his unbelievable profits.Second, he could continue trading on Black Ledger without constantly worrying about FN Capital.And third, if anyone eventually discovered that he had prepared for the apocalypse in advance, no one would immediately suspect he had been reborn. They would merely think he had seen it in advance.….Meanwhile, in the capital city, the atmosphere inside FN Capital's conference room was unusually tense.The company's senior executives sat around the table, each absorbed in their own thoughts.Finally, an elderly man spoke.“Can he really make that much profit from that amount of capital?”“Impossible,” one of the senior analysts immediately replied. “Unless he has access to insider information, and even that woul
Chapter 024 – The Seer
*****Ronan had assumed he and FN Capital would never cross paths again after their initial exchange.Yet now…He hesitated before answering.“I wasn’t expecting your call.”“I apologize for the unexpected disturbance,” Kade said with an awkward laugh, sounding nothing like the imposing man Ronan had met the previous day.He quickly got to the point.“Mr. Ashmore, there are two reasons for this call. First, we wanted to give you some feedback regarding your list.”FN Capital had initially been skeptical of Ronan's predictions. Even with years of market experience, they couldn't guarantee a 60% success rate on every position, yet this mysterious person had casually claimed that sixty percent was merely his minimum.The opportunity had been too lucrative to ignore, so they took the risk.But the result had far exceeded their expectations.“Our company made more profit today than we had in years, even though we used the lowest leverage.”A faint trace of regret entered Kade's
Chapter 023 – “Can You Trust Me?”
*****This company carried Selene’s family's name… the last piece of her family's legacy she still possessed. Yet that same name was now buried beneath scandal, and she'd assumed Ronan would erase it the moment he took ownership.“Sir...” she began cautiously.Ronan waved her off.“I’ve already made up my mind.”Selene’s heart skipped a beat.‘Boss is so kind. He couldn’t bear to see me lose the last legacy I have left.’Her eyes grew moist as she looked at him with quiet gratitude.Ronan didn't notice.His attention had already shifted to another matter.“Can one person operate the machinery?”“No. They need at least two people.”Ronan nodded thoughtfully.“Fine. I’ll assist you when the time comes.”Selene blinked, clearly puzzled, but wisely kept her questions to herself and nodded.“There’s another important thing I need to tell you.”Her expression became serious.“The world will change drastically over the next few weeks.”Selene stared at him in disbelief.“C
Chapter 022 – Meeting Selene Again
***** “What does that have to do with me?” Ronan’s question instantly made the food in Blake’s and Sarah’s mouths taste bitter. They sprang to their feet, their smug expressions vanishing for the first time since they had approached him. “What... what did you just say?” “You told us… to order!” Ronan looked at them with an almost innocent expression. “I only told the attendant to arrange a table for you.” The waitress paused. Then a faint smile crept across her face as she finally understood what had happened. “All right, sir. You may leave. Thank you for dining with us.” The couple froze. Only a second later, Sarah’s face twisted with fury. “You deliberately tricked us!” “You knew we couldn’t afford this!” Blake roared. Ronan calmly met his gaze. “Then why did you order it?” Blake’s expression twitched. “Because you told us to!” “I didn’t even say anything to you two.” Sarah pointed accusingly at him. “You knew exactly what we would think!”
Chapter 021 – The Price of Arrogance
*****Blake and Sarah were caught off guard by Ronan’s tone. He had always been a spineless coward… a pathetic doormat who never dared to raise his head in their presence.Yet the man before them now seemed like an entirely different person.They exchanged bewildered glances before quickly recovering.“I thought my woman had mistaken you for someone else when she said she saw you,” Blake said, looking Ronan up and down with a mocking smile. “So it really is you.”His gaze lingered on Ronan's clothes before he chuckled.“Honey, it must be fate,” Sarah said sweetly, a cruel smile forming on her lips.After spending months trying to force Ronan out of the company, they had finally succeeded that very morning. They were on their way to celebrate when Sarah spotted him through the restaurant window.At first, neither of them believed it. Ronan had always struggled to afford even the cheapest meals, so seeing him dining at such an expensive restaurant seemed impossible.Yet there he was.“T
Chapter 020 – Negotiation
*****Reign had built shelters for wealthy clients before, but nothing remotely this ambitious.“A project like this could easily cost several billion dollars.”“Can you do it?”Reign stared at him in shock before quickly recovering.“As long as the money is available, we can get it done in...” He paused to calculate. “At least a year.”Ronan's heart sank.A year.He had twenty-seven days.“That’s far too long.”His composure cracked for the first time.“I need it ready in twenty-five days.”Reign stared at him as though he had misheard.“Twenty-five days?”Ronan nodded, his palm already sweating beneath the table.“Impossible.”Reign shook his head.“We're talking about excavation, structural reinforcement, independent power and water systems, storage, ventilation, security, and more. Even with every resource we have, six months would be extraordinary.”Ronan's thoughts raced.‘Don't tell me the mission is going to fail before it even begins.’For the first time since his rebirth, ge
