The Ex-Wife Strikes Back By Queena Laurie

Chapter 36



Chapter 36 

Maddox said firmly, Aurelia, there’s no need to frighten me like an alarmist. Anyway, I have already made up my mind to invest in you. When it comes to investment, who can guarantee that it always brings profits

If so, the world would be full of wealthy people, wouldn’t it? Anyway, no matter how much money you make or lose, I will always consider you a friend, Aurelia. Unless you look down on me and are displeased for me to be your partner, then it’s a different story!” 

Aurelia was a little surprised in her heart. Sure enough, this Maddox wasn’t that simple. Based on this bold and decisive attitude solely, it was not something any ordinary person could possess

Since he had already said this much, it would seem that she had no responsibility if she still defied him now

More importantly, she had already intended to use his funds to further increase her original accumulation

Fine! Since you think so highly of me, I would not be pretentious, Maddox. However, let’s not mention anything else like investing in me anymore. Just take it as if you lent me a sum of money, and I signed a oneyear loan contract with you. The interest rate will be based on the highest rate offered by stateowned banks. If you agree with this, I will arrange for the procedures to be taken care of. We will be friends in the future! If you don’t agree, just ignore what I said. What do you 

think?” 

A loan contract?Maddox repeated inwardly

Maddox couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Sure enough, Aurelia seemed to have her own way of making big money. However. it was clear from her tone that she didn’t want to involve him in her plans. So, she was willing to use his money as a lean but not as a joint investment

In other words, although it sounded like his funds were completely riskfree and he could earn an interest rate higher than the highest interest rate offered by stateowned banks after one year, in reality, he was being taken advantage of. Aurelia had the potential to make double or even more with this fund, while Maddox wouldn’t gain anything from this arrangement

However, he couldn’t complain about what she said. After all, his relationship with Aurelia was far from that of a true friend. Why should she make money for him

Aurelia had also already made it very clear that if he agreed, she would reluctantly accept him as one of her own. When the need arose, Deputy Sheriff Swanson would be his backer, granting him a certain degree of advantage

If he disagreed, she would pretend that he had never said anything during this phone call and the cooperation proposal. His relationship with Aurelia was distant in the past, and it would remain the same in the future

Aurelia was so shrewd and unassailable

What else could he do? There was no other choice but to agree with her

Aurelia, I have a feeling that we will become real partners one day. By then, you will know that I am definitely trustworthy in business!said Maddox

This was an agreement in disguise that he had agreed to her loan request. However, at the same time, it also indirectly implied that she didn’t fully trust him this time, so he had to hand in his proof of allegiance. This was why he was willing to make a compromise in order to prove himself

Nevertheless, the next time he had the chance to make money again, he would request to be a partner rather than just

loaner

Aurelia smiled lightly and didn’t say anything. She simply pretended not to understand his words and said, Thank you very much, Maddox!” 

Then when will you come over to go through the formalities?” 

Upon hearing this, Aurelia couldn’t help but burst out in a fit of laughter

Chapter 36 

No way! Are you in such a hurry? Was it so uncomfortable to have too much money in your pocket? This is the first time I have seen anyone in such a hurry to lend out their money!” 

If others want to borrow money from me, I naturally wouldn’t act like this. But if the money is for you, Aurelia, I’ll definitely hurry up and urge you to borrow it. After all, I have already missed my chance to make money with you as at partner. I still need to earn the interest, though. The sooner you borrow it, the more I can carn, right?” 

Of course, Aurelia knew that he was joking. He couldn’t care about the very little interest money. However, she couldn’t help but admit that Maddox was quite clever. Even though she already knew a lot about his background and character, at this moment, she couldn’t help but take a liking to him

Okay. In that case, I’ll arrange for someone else to do it in two days!” 

Aurelia, why don’t you come in person? I was actually looking forward to feasting my eyes on a beauty like you!” 

Haha! Maddox, I don’t think many have seen such a humorous side of you. Don’t you think it would be interesting to wait until you are not far away from success, and then suddenly emerge on the stage and enjoy everyone’s shocked and unbelievable gazes on you? At the present stage, both you and I should keep a low profile!” 

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone. His voice became calm again, losing its teasing tone. Aurelia, you are indeed my soulmate. I really regret not knowing you earlier!” 

Aurelia smiled faintly, but she didn’t take it seriously. If he really knew her earlier, it would have been very unfortunate for him. Thanks to her rebirth, she had lived twice the life of others now. How could she be the same as anyone else

It’s not too late now, is it?” 

You’re right. It’s not too late! I only have about 10 million dollars at hand to lend you now. If you think that it’s not enough, give me a month or two to get you another sum of money!” 

There’s no need. 10 million dollars is enough!” 

Aurelia immediately and decisively rejected his proposal to lend more funds to her

Excluding the approximate 1 million dollars she needed to buy a house and for her working capital, there were about 9 million dollars available for her to invest in the stock market

If Maddox lent her another 10 million dollars here, it would be 19 million dollars in total

However, compared to the hundreds of billions of dollars in daily stock market liquidity, this amount of money wouldn’t even cause a ripple when invested

It was important to note, though, that Aurelia was only planning on investing this huge sum of money in only one stock

This was quite shocking

If someone from the Securities Regulatory Commission accidentally targeted her, she would have to go to prison

However, Aurelia was not prepared to change her mind. This was because she, who had been reborn, possessed the prophetic function that no one else had

She knew better than anyone else how to maximize her returns, and the stock she intended to invest all her money in was the source of her first stash of money

If she remembered correctly, there were no signs of movement yet for this particular stock

At this time in her previous life, this stock was less than eight dimes per share. However, by the end of 2006, it had skyrocketed to more than 20 times its original value, to nearly 20 dollars per share

A few days after New Year’s Day in 2007, the stock even peaked at 25 dollars per share
