Chapter 1061: Headlines

Instead of celebrating, Stephen had to put down his glass of champagne to rectify or reduce their losses. While their stocks continued to drop, their phones rang nonstop.

Stephen gripped the glass tightly, about to throw it at the wall when he stopped himself. Getting worked up wasn't worth it... freewebnovel.com
