Chapter 432 I’ll Wait For You To Come Back
The next day, at the break of dawn..
After Madelyn got out of bed, she finally took a shower.

When she descended the stairs, she noticed Sebastian was having breakfast. Consequently, she decided to join him, and they shared the morning meal together.
Sebastian still did not inquire about Madelyn’s recent activities.
Madelyn didn’t plan on sharing either. She quietly peeled an egg and placed it in Sebastian’s bowl.
During their meal, the two of them didn’t speak much, but the atmosphere was subtly harmonious and pleasant.
Originally, Lydia wanted to step forward and speak up, but upon witnessing the scene before her, she couldn’t bear to interrupt.
At last, the two of them finished their breakfast.
Before he left. Sebastian suddenly instructed. “This afternoon. I have to make a business trip to a nearby city. Remember to take good care of yourself. I’ll be back tomorrow.”
“Huh?”
After hearing this, Madelyn was evidently reluctant to let go.
And so, she immediately stepped forward and embraced Sebastian. “You must be careful. I’ll be waiting for
your return.”
“All right, Sebastian responded with a chuckle, then gently placed a kiss on Madelyn’s forehead.
Following that, the two of them set off separately for work.
Upon arriving at the company, Madelyn first popped in to greet Derek before heading for her own office.
Following that. Madelyn brewed a cup of coffee, then sat in front of her computer and powered it on, ready to start her day’s work.
This was the habit she had developed over the past few days.
“Good morning.” Jillian greeted with a smile when she arrived.
“Good morning.” Madelyn answered with a smile.
The sunlight poured in from the window, illuminating the office with a brilliant glow. It even seemed to lift one’s spirits, inducing a sense of tranquility and delight.
Madelyn gazed at the sunlight, feeling incredibly content.
At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. “Ms. Thornton.”
Chapter 432 I’ll Wait For You To Come Back-
“Good morning, Ms. Thornton.”
After seeing Madelyn, Cyrus greeted her before jumping straight into his report.
“Ms. Thornton, it seems there were some changes in Sherritt Group’s stock market last night.”
Upon hearing this, Madelyn almost instantly raised her eyebrow. “What changes?”
“The stock market just surged by a full percentage point…” Cyrus reported truthfully.
“What? How could this be possible!”
Madelyn was instantly taken aback.

Judging from the current state of the stock market, it seemed that Sherritt Group could only go downhill: there was no chance of it rising.
After all, nothing good had recently happened with Sherritt Group, and there had been no projects. The fact that their stocks hadn’t plummeted was already a cause for gratitude.
How could it possibly have risen again?
“What on earth is going on?” Madelyn could only look at Cyrus in complete bewilderment.
progress on their
Cyrus was also confused. “I’m not sure. I saw the news as soon as I arrived at the company today, and I immediately came to report it”
Upon hearing this, Madelyn gave a nod.
At this point, Jillian was also greatly puzzled. “Madelyn,” she said, “according to the usual financial principles, Sherritt Group has already reached a point of life or death. Unless something exceptionally good happens to boost the market trend, there’s no way it could rebound. Moreover, this time, it surprisingly shot up by a whole percentage point, which is simply inconceivable.”
“That’s why I feel something’s off about this,” Madelyn said, sinking deep into her thoughts. “What on earth is going on? Could it be that…”
Suddenly, as if realizing something. Madelyn gasped. “Could it be that Janessa has been secretly holding
shares?”
Jillian also exclaimed in surprise, “Oh my God! That’s illegal, you know.”
However, after giving it some thought, the two of them couldn’t seem to find any other plausible explanation.
In the end, Jillian suggested, “Madelyn, I believe it’s best we don’t jump to conclusions too hastily. Let’s observe the situation further before making any decisions.”
Operating the stock market privately was akin to teetering on the edge of legality, testing its boundaries. If one managed to remain undetected, a significant profit could be made.
But if they were to be found out, they might have to face legal consequences.

Early in the morning. Janessa arrived at the office, only to find the company’s stocks had rebounded. She was instantly over the moon with joy,
In reality, after an afternoon of contemplation the day before, she had come up with the brilliant strategy of first repurchasing the stocks, then subtly driving up the market,
After all, Janessa couldn’t just stand by and watch as the stock prices fell, time and time again.
If the losses continued at this rate, she reckoned the shareholders of the company would be coming for her head.
However, Janessa didn’t dare to be too blatant. This time, she had only slightly increased the company’s stability by a mere one percent.
However, all of this did not meet the satisfaction of the shareholders.
During the meeting, the shareholders continued to voice their complaints about Janessa.
“Ms. Sherritt, didn’t you promise me an explanation? It’s been a couple of days now, and it looks like the stocks are about to hit rock bottom. Can you handle this or not?”
“Exactly. Ms. Sherritt! What do you really plan on doing?”
The shareholders voiced their complaints one after another.
The project manager also voiced his dissatisfaction at this point. “Ms. Sherritt, our company’s projects have been significantly delayed due to the stock market situation. If the stock market doesn’t rebound soon, our clients will start doubting the competency of our company. If the issue isn’t resolved soon, it’s only going to get worse.
At the meeting, almost everyone wore an expression of urgency.
Janessa had initially assumed that with the stock market finally making a comeback, the shareholders would undoubtedly be pleased.
Unexpectedly, what she received in return was an even greater barrage of reproach.
In an instant, Janessa’s spirits plummeted.
Once the meeting had concluded, she found herself alone in the conference room, drumming and tapping against the table.
“Ah! What on earth do you want me to do? What do you want me to do! You bunch of old coots, do you think running a company is an easy task? Do you really have to push me to the edge? Annoying, so annoying! I am trying to figure things out, so can’t you all just shut up!”
While cursing, Janessa kicked the table and knocked over several chairs with her foot. Only then did Janessa feel her anger had been vented.

In the afternoon, after having lunch. Madelyn and Jillian returned to their office to continue their work.
When Madelyn fired up her computer, she casually checked the market trends. To her surprise, she found that the stocks of Sherritt Group had bounced back by three points!
“How could this be possible?” Madelyn instantly exclaimed.
If one were to assume the slight uptick in the stock market value of Sherritt Group could be attributed to the natural ebb and flow of the market, then what was the deal with this sudden surge now?
Madelyn, could it be that Janessa, as you’ve suggested, is really pulling the strings behind the scenes?” Jillian asked softly.
