Chapter 21 I Will Make Money Beget Money
Natalie had been single for more than 20 years.
Her last hand-holding with someone of the opposite sex dated back to kindergarten, not to mention any close contact. However, she was now lying in the same bed with a man.
A man who had said something that made her spend time thinking about it and feel shy about it afterwards.
She wanted to pretend that she had fallen asleep, but that was impossible.
She could only regret what she had said.
Natalie took a deep breath and quickly organized the appropriate words in her brain.
"I...I don't mind." She blushed and took a few more deep breaths to calm herself down. "I haven't thought about that. I just want to take good care of you and do my duty to you. I used to be muddled, but now I'm not the same as before. Today I promised Grandpa that I would be with you and support you at any time."
"You haven't thought about that now, then in the future..."
A perfumed hand was stretched out to cover Kendrick's mouth and prevent him from saying more.
Kendrick felt helpless.
"We'll talk about the future in the future. Let's live in the present now," said Natalie frankly, her eyes sparkling.
She believed that it was possible for Kendrick's legs to recover in the future.
Afraid that Kendrick would say something difficult for her to answer, Natalie hurriedly changed the topic, "Maggie asked me to choose a script for her today, and I chose a role that is very suitable for her. It will definitely be a hit drama."
Kendrick said with a smile, "Maggie has aspired to join the movie and television industry since childhood to become an international movie queen. I don't know if I can witness that moment in my lifetime." "Of course you can," said Natalie firmly.
Meanwhile, she thought, "If Maggie could not become a movie queen, the world settings would all collapse."
"What about you? What do you want to do?" Kendrick suddenly asked her in a gentle voice.
Natalie answered him in her heart, "I want to be a couch potato and ride someone else's coattails.
In my former life as a medical drudge, I was really busy from early to late. My talent and the lofty ideal of saving the dead and the wounded set me on this path.
However, since I've made a new start, I naturally don't want to repeat the old path.
Life should be more colorful.
I can use my prophetic knowledge of investment in this world to become an investor."
Although she thought so, Natalie said to Kendrick, "I want to take care of you."
She wanted to be with Kendrick all the time, to tease and amuse him.
Her wish was simple and plain.
Her clear voice buckled gently over Kendrick's heart, creating a string of notes. Kendrick gently said, "Anything else apart from that?"
Natalie thought for a moment and said, "I read Maggie's script today, and I think it is of great commercial value."
Kendrick said calmly, "All the films she has played a role in since her debut have lost money. At first, investors will invest in her for the sake of the face of the Ramsey family. However, as time goes by, unless those investors want to legalize illegal funds, there will not be many people who will do charity all the time."
Kendrick's words were mean.
However, he was telling the truth.
Maggie made a low-key debut because she didn't want to rely on her family.
Even so, as her brother, Kendrick still secretly gave her a hand. The loss, however, was too great, and if it continued so, Kendrick would not be able to account for it to the board.
"It's different this time. With my commercial sense and my appreciation of art and literature, I'm sure that this drama will be a hit," said Natalie.
"So?" Kendrick raised his eyebrows.
"I want to invest in it!"
"What about the funds?"
"You gave me a bank card last time, did you forget?" Natalie laughed.
"That's for your daily living expenses," said Kendrick.
Kendrick thought the money in that bank card would cover Natalie's expenses for a while.
"That's enough." Natalie pursed her lips. "I will make money beget money." She was confident and generous. "When I become rich, I will pay you back immediately."
After she got the bank card from Kendrick, Natalie set aside some money to pay for the lawyer's fees. Then she quickly opened an account and used the rest of the money to buy technology, medical cosmetology, and biology stocks. The rise of these stocks was gratifying, and Natalie decided to sell them all out at the right time, so that the capital could be tenfold. She estimated that there would be 1 million dollars in the tax withholding account.
The general setting of this world was about ten years behind that of her world.
Natalie had read enough to know that economic trends would not deviate in general.
Therefore, she bought stocks in the technology sector with confidence and without worry.
Seeing that Kendrick didn't speak, Natalie hurriedly said, "I will only use legal means. Don't worry! But I have to keep it a secret for the time being."
Kendrick didn't ask further.
Natalie approached him again and said, "Why don't you seem to be curious at all?"
Kendrick said casually, "You opened an account in Honest Securities."
Natalie was surprised. "How do you know?"
In order not to be noticed, Natalie deliberately avoided the financial system of Ramsey Group and chose a less well-known securities company.
Natalie thought in silence, "Is it possible that he knows everything I did?
I originally wanted to show him the screenshot on the day of the sale, so that he would be surprised and envious.
Unexpectedly, I'm still the clown in the end."
Seeing that Natalie did not speak, Kendrick thought she was unhappy, so he explained, "Honest Securities is under my personal holding, so the customer manager will report to me regularly."
He held 51% of the shares of Honest Securities through acquisitions and restructuring before the new year, so he had an absolute say in this company.
This was his investment and acquisition outside his holdings in Ramsey Group.
Natalie couldn't help but think, "So, everything I've done is still under his nose."
"That explains why you know about that. After all, you're not a god, right?" Natalie thought for a while and continued, "I analyzed the equity structure of Honest Securities before opening an account, but I didn't see your name."
Kendrick nodded.
He deliberately did so to avoid risk and conflict with the Ramsey Group's financial system, while seeking greater benefits for himself.
Natalie immediately stopped asking. She said, "I see. I will keep my mouth shut."
"Let's go to sleep. Good night!"
"Good night-" Natalie held the pillow and closed her eyes.
It was also Kendrick's first time sleeping next to someone.
It was rare that he did not hate it.
He did not even use the essential oil to soothe his nerves and help him sleep, but he got a good night's sleep.
When he turned to his side, Kendrick could see Natalie sleeping on the other side. Her skin was fair and delicate, and her breath was light. She slept very quietly. Probably for fear of disturbing him, she unconsciously shrank into the corner of the bed. Kendrick felt that she was like a little animal huddled in sleep.
Some broken hair fell on one side of her nose and moved slightly with her breath.
Kendrick held out his hand uncontrollably, trying to brush away the wisp of hair for her.
Natalie, however, had done it herself, pulling aside the hair that tickled her.
Kendrick's hand froze in the air for a moment before he withdrew it.
Natalie didn't know anything. She just turned over and continued to sleep.
When she woke up, Kendrick had already finished washing and was sitting in the dining room downstairs.
His movements were so light that she did not feel them at all in her sleep.
She seemed quite used to sleeping with Kendrick last night.
When Natalie appeared in the dining room, it seemed that everyone had arrived and was waiting for her. She went to Kendrick and sat down. Then she smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I'm late." "It's fine," said Seth. He looked good after a night's rest. He leaned there and said to Natalie with a kind smile, "Have a look at the breakfast prepared by the kitchen and see if you like it. If you want something else to eat, I'll let the kitchen prepare it for you now."
Natalie could feel that she was offered special treatment.
She said sensibly and politely, "This is already a feast, so we don't have to bother the kitchen. Grandpa, you look very good today. Would you like some porridge? I'll serve it for you."
"OK. I also want some hash brown," said Seth in a cheerful tone.
Natalie instinctively said, "Grandpa, hash brown is greasy, and it is easy to cause blood sugar fluctuations. How about an egg?"
As soon as she had finished speaking, everyone at the table changed their expression.
The reason was that Seth was stubborn and did not like to listen to advice. He hated boiled eggs most in his life, and whoever dared to persuade him would be scolded.
