There’s nothing more satisfying than being affirmed by others.

Especially when it comes from an accomplished man like Roy Lewis.

Richelle Dunn’s mood, which was already great, became even more ecstatic due to Roy Lewis’ swift transfer and affirmation.

Thus, when Hugo Camrey sent Richelle a video call request and saw her blushing and laughing, he jumped in surprise and hurriedly asked her,

“Richelle, did you take some sort of drug?”

Richelle scoffed, “I’m just happy right now! But if you want to say I’m on drugs, then fine, because happiness is the best elixir in the world!”

With a worried face, Hugo wondered if it was not drugs but some evil spell?

“Richelle, are you sure that you are in a state where you can think and handle things rationally right now?”

Richelle glared at him, “Of course, tell me, what’s up?”

Hugo’s expression turned serious, “Richelle, I want to make it clear that there is no solid evidence for this news. After all, it happened a long time ago, and we can’t verify its authenticity. You’ll have to judge for yourself whether it’s true or false.”

A sense of uneasiness clouded Richelie’s mind, and the smile on her face disappeared. “Is it about my parents?”

Hugo nodded, “I remember you telling me that your parents passed away overseas, right?”

Richelle nodded.

Hugo’s expression became even graver, “One of my uncles said that he met your parents at an international airport more than 20 years ago. At the time, your parents were supposed to be on the same flight back home with him. But just before boarding, they got a call from Jayden Dunn, and after the call, they told my uncle that they had to go back to the branch office to deal with some urgent matters and wouldn’t return to the country for the time being. Later, he heard that your parents had a car accident after they left the airport!”

Richelle had known since she was a child that her parents died in a car accident on their way from the airport to the branch office. In Jayden and his family’s version, her parents were running away to the branch office to evade responsibility for a mistake that had almost caused the Dunn Group to go bankrupt. They were overburdened with guilt, and in the end, they drove their car into the vast ocean.

Hearing the closest version to the truth for the first time, Richelle’s eyes unconsciously filled with tears.

With teary eyes, she choked out her gratitude to Hugo.

“Hugo, thank you!”

This was the first time Hugo saw her cry, even though it was through a screen, and he was at a loss for a good while.

“Richelle, take care of yourself.”

“My uncle is a highly respected person, so although there’s no evidence to support it, I think his words are highly credible,” said Hugo.

Richelle murmured her agreement, and the hot ball of hatred in her heart unconsciously grew larger in size.

“Please also thank your uncle for me…”

Seeing her mood not improving, Hugo comforted her for a while until Richelle’s face looked a bit better before hanging up the call.

Richelle ended the call, buried her face in her knees, and it took her more than ten minutes to lift her head.

She set her laptop on her knees, and her bloodshot eyes flashed with ruthless murderous intent as she slowly opened the stock market page.

As she expected, the Dunn Group’s stock price had plummeted.

It’s karma!

A sarcastic and delighted smile appeared at the corner of Richelle’s mouth.

She never expected that, as she racked her brain for ways to find a breakthrough against Jayden, fate would finally lend her a helping hand.

This all started in the morning.

At around eight o’clock, she finished giving Roy Lewis acupuncture treatment and returned to her bedroom, just as she did the day before. Like before, she opened the financial news.

As a result, the instant she did, the news of the Dunn Group being investigated by the Federation’s Securities Regulatory Commission for suspected illegal stock market manipulation left her speechless from shock.

Heaven was truly on her side!

After the shock, Richelle was engulfed by waves of ecstasy, and for most of the day, she couldn’t help but grin like a fool.

Though she was ecstatic, she didn’t neglect her responsibilities.

She quickly cashed in all the funds and financial products available for sale, and with the additional capital she had on hand, she found that she had even more than she expected to have.

Plus, there’s the million-dollar amount Roy Lewis had just transferred to her. It seemed like she could now buy quite a lot of Dunn Group stock.

Of course, for a big tree like Dunn Group, the proportion she could buy wasn’t much.

But after all, it’s a good start!

Moreover, Richelle Dunn wasn’t in a hurry to make a move now. In her opinion, the stock price of Dunn Group would continue to fall for a while.

If she added fuel to the fire at this time, the decline might be even worse!

The fuel she was going to add was none other than her former mysterious benefactor.

If her guess was correct, that mysterious person was very likely related to this investigation of the Dunn Group.

From the information and data that he needed, she inferred that this former benefactor was likely to be a high-ranking official in the Federation.

But when he later gave her those top-secret documents as rewards, she also concluded that this benefactor probably had a personal grudge against the Dunn Group.

So, in a way, her goal was aligned with this former benefactor!

After sorting out the causes and effects, Richelle made a risky decision.

She wanted to try to join forces with this benefactor and make the stock price of Dunn Group plummet more severely, causing the Group to fall harder and suffer more pain!

Having thought it through, Richelle immediately turned off all the programs on her computer, rebooted, logged in, and entered another top-secret system. “Mr. Benefactor, are you there?”

After completing the task that day, Richelle felt like he had already blacklisted her.

So now, she was waiting with faint hope.

Time passed by every minute and second: ten minutes, half an hour, one hour, two hours!

There was no response from the other party.

Richelle wouldn’t give up. This time, she bluntly clarified her intentions.

“I want to join forces with you to deal with Dunn Group, are you interested?”

Richelle had fully prepared herself mentally to endure another long wait, just like before, only to find emptiness in her inbox and sadness in her heart.

So, unlike last time, she didn’t just sit in front of the computer waiting. She needed to replenish some energy, eat something satisfying, in order to continue fighting!

She got up and walked out. The corridor was completely silent.

There was no movement in the living room or conference room either.

Could it be that Roy had left?

She wanted to go to the entrance and see if his shoes were still there, but on second thought, whether he was there or not, what did it matter to her?

With that thought, she went to the refrigerator and took out an ice cream, scooping up a big spoonful and putting it into her mouth.

At this moment, Roy’s door opened.

Roy, who she thought had left, walked towards her.

He was also a bit surprised, and looked at her thoughtfully.

“Didn’t go to sleep?”

Richelle forcefully swallowed the large, iced bite of ice cream, then let out a dry laugh.

“Yeah, I’m working on my thesis, and I’m a bit drowsy, so I came out to get some ice cream to wake myself up.”

After saying that, she turned to Roy, who had taken a bottle of water out of the refrigerator, and said.

“Mr. Lewis, I’ll get back to my work!”

Upon hearing Roy’s acknowledgment, she quickly scampered back to her bedroom.

She sat down, put the ice cream aside, and opened her computer again. Then, the screen lit up.

A new message immediately popped up.

“Let’s hear it!”
