Chapter 100

The Gaskelly‘ stock plummeted, and their losses were in the billions. If this continued, they would soon hit rock bottom.

Qenie gritted her teeth and stomped her foot before reluctantly agreeing to the deal. After obtaining Raven’s contact information, she sent a friend request and breathed a sigh

“You’ve finally accepted my friend request. Let’s meet up and talk face–to–face.”

Hera, who was seated beside her, adeptly applied a few acupuncture needles and eased Samantha’s discomfort.

Samantha was so grateful that she insisted on getting Hera’s contact number and treated her like a guardian angel.

Hera replied, “I’m fine”
