Chapter 612

At an old neighborhood near Norhaven River in Perthter City, Wesley's father, Roman Landry, exclaimed, "Isn't this Jeffrey's son? Come and see this!"

The neighbors, who were watching television, surrounded him. In such a small town, being on television was a huge deal.

"Wow! How did Jeffrey's son end up on television?"

Wesley's mother was curious and joined the crowd. Mary Schwartz, their neighbor, took a peek too. They were both a little boorish and didn't understand why Jack was on television.

Wesley's mother asked, "Why isn't he home for the new year? Why is he out and about in such flashy clothes? What is it for?"

Mary said, "Perhaps he's used his status as the top scholar in the state to earn big bucks! It seems like this scholar knows how to make money."

"Stop with your nonsense."

Roman understood what was going on. He was initially so shaken that he was at a loss for words.

Then, he frowned and said, "Look at where that is! That's Federia. The news said that Jack's company has gone public in Federia. He's the CEO of a company! It's nothing like what you said about him earning big bucks for being the top scholar."

Wesley's mother somewhat understood the situation because Jeffrey often dabbled in stocks. She replied, "Huh? Jack's company has gone public in Federia? When did he own a company?"

"Yeah! It went public with a starting share price of 40 dollars. Now, the company is worth 20 billion dollars. He's the founder of Genesis Games."

Jeffrey sighed and said, "Oh my gosh! This must be a joke. How could this be true?"

Wesley's mother and Mary were flabbergasted by Jeffrey's words and were at a loss for words.

When did Jack become the CEO of a 20-billion-dollar company? They tried counting the zeros with their fingers and realized they didn't have nearly enough fingers.

This small town by Norhaven River was filled with talent. In the blink of an eye, two individuals had risen to success-one had become a celebrity, while the other had become the CEO of a 20-billion-dollar company. Read complete version only at FіndNovel.net

Clarice also saw that Genesis Games' shares were worth 80 dollars when the market closed. She was dumbfounded.

She had once despicably hoped that the share prices of Genesis Games would fall. Then, she would feel less guilty toward her daughter. However, Genesis Games' strong and resounding answer was a sharp slap to Clarice's face.

Clarice silently turned off the television. Her only hope was that her daughter, Bella, would never see this news.

Although many people had seen the news about Genesis Games, many more had not. After all, the CEO of a major enterprise wasn't necessarily a household name.

For example, the women in the School of Music's dormitory were only interested in entertainment and gossip. They knew nothing about technology and were not interested in it.

Feena, who was in Seresto, had also overlooked Jack's success. However, she would probably find out about it soon since Wesley had discovered that Jack was the founder of Genesis Games.

Soon, the news spread to the small town by the Norhaven River, which was slightly behind its time. Eventually, more people would find out.

Bella never paid attention to finance-related news. At this moment, she was working hard at Montclair Conservatory, striving to break free from her mother's restraints and change her fate, utterly oblivious to the glory beyond her four walls.
