Chapter 1418 Popular Among the Elderly Folks
“But they are buying gold that is increasing in value.”
“I heard rumors that someone’s about to impose sanctions on gold.”
At this, one of the elderly women chimed in, “Oh, come on. When has gold ever really dropped in value? Sure, scarlet emeralds might outperform it during times of prosperity, but gold has never truly dropped in value.”
“Let’s stop guessing and just watch them!” someone suggested.
Even just counting the money would take some time since it was a cash transaction..
With such a large amount of cash, the machine had to count it once, then someone would count it again, and finally, a third check was done to ensure accuracy. Only after these three rounds without errors could the funds be credited.
The trader was exceptionally enthusiastic about this client who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. After all, encountering such a generous retail investor was a rarity.
On top of that, the client was incredibly generous. Just the transaction fees alone were enough to cover the trader’s expenses for a year!
“Please sign here.” The trader was clearly fishing for some background info. “You don’t seem like first time traders. Are you locals?”
Wynter shook her head and chuckled boldly. “We just got back from overseas.”
Upon hearing this, Dalton paused briefly. His gaze drifted toward her with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
He didn’t say anything. After all, he had to maintain the aloof and distant demeanor she had set up for him. All he had to do was stand there and play an international CEO’s role.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
As expected, the moment they mentioned overseas, the trader’s and the elderly onlookers‘ eyes shone even brighter.
Overseas? That meant they were major investors!
“It’s easier to open an account directly at the trading platform,” Wynter continued.
Wynter and Dalton’s cash–counting spectacle had already become the trading platform’s highlight. Now, with the confirmation that they were from overseas, everyone was curious to see how they would invest next.
“All in on gold?” The trader hesitated, subtly offering advice. “Gold has been rising lately. But just to be cautious, maybe you should consider diversifying into other stocks.”
It was a careful nudge to imply that gold might have reached its peak and could soon drop, and that making further investments was risky.
Wynter paused at his words, but her hesitation wasn’t because of uncertainty. It was to turn and glance at Dalton.
Sensing her gaze, Dalton raised an eyebrow. He suppressed a smile before returning to his distant and dignified demeanor, making himself as unapproachable as usual. “No need. All in.”
His foreign accent was flawless, each word softly enunciated. His “all in” sounded exactly like those upper -class elites in films who genuinely didn’t care about money.
Coupled with his sharp, chiseled features and regal presence, anyone watching might easily mistake him
for a royal from some distant island. He did look like someone with possible real capital to back him up.
With just two words, Dalton effortlessly commanded the entire room’s attention.
This made even Wynter do a double–take at Dalton. She wondered if her fiancé would be able to remain so casual even if he had to throw in a few more billions.
Dalton’s move made it too easy for speculation. From their entrance to the cash transaction, especially the fact that they only bought gold stocks.
The imaginative older folks exchanged glances with each other.
“Ms. Sackett, why don’t you ask them?”
“I don’t even know them. How should I ask?” Bennett asked.
“You excel in foreign languages, so you will be able to communicate with them. Just go talk to them casually. They don’t seem too difficult to talk to.“
“Yes. The man might be hard to approach, but the woman is definitely approachable.”
The elderly folks were referring to Wynter. She had always been popular among the older generation. Her charm was evident from how those in the former family estate and Reuben treated her.
Moreover, having done so much, Wynter would certainly make opportunities for the elderly women to approach her.
