Chapter 617

Noreen thought for a moment. "It might be difficult, but it's not impossible."

"You mean because that jerk Seth is still in the picture, right?"

That was exactly what Noreen meant.

Claire cursed in frustration.

"That jerk Seth is so hard to 'kill'!"

Just as they finished their complaints, Noreen received some insider news:

PerseTech's financial crisis had been resolved.

Noreen was astonished.

Had Seth intervened again?

If so, he was being incredibly stubborn.

Was the power of a first love really that strong?

She respected it, but she couldn't quite understand it.

Perhaps this was true love.

Compared to Seth's devotion, her own seven years of effort seemed to pale in comparison.

Of course, this was all just Noreen's speculation. Only those involved knew the real truth.

She was just a casual observer of the drama; she didn't have much time to dwell on

it.

This week, she had been closely monitoring the beta test data for The Chronos Gallery.

Seeing that the results far exceeded expectations, Noreen's worries finally subsided.

She allowed herself a rare, good night's sleep before catching an early morning flight to Glenhaven City for a business trip.

Sophia had booked her the earliest flight. She had just settled into the VIP lounge when she ran into Bianca and her entourage.

Sophia muttered under her breath, full of indignation, "What bad luck. I forgot to check my horoscope this morning!"

Noreen, however, was unfazed. "It can't be helped. It's not like I own the airline."

Sophia added, "Even if you did, I don't think you could just kick people out."

Noreen chuckled. "Then just ignore them. You have to allow people you dislike to exist in the world."

Despite her words, Sophia couldn't just turn a blind eye. She kept whispering to Noreen, "What are they doing in Glenhaven City?"

Noreen speculated, "Probably heading to the Glenhaven City Stock Exchange?"

After all, PerseTech was also pushing for its IPO, and she had heard the results were coming out tomorrow.

Noreen's trip was also to the stock exchange.

That explained their 'fateful' encounter.

Sophia mumbled again, "You don't think PerseTech will actually get listed, do you?"

"We'll find out tomorrow, won't we?"

On the other side of the lounge.

When Bianca's group arrived, Lillian was the first to spot Noreen.

She shot Noreen a sideways glance, curled her lip, and let out a disdainful 'tch', her contempt unconcealed.

She then hurried to catch up with Bianca, and they sat down in chairs on the other side of the room.

Bianca was looking down, replying to a message.

Lillian assumed it was Seth and craned her neck to see, only to find it was a message to Jude Wilder.

Jude had sent the message last night. Bianca had seen it then but had deliberately not replied.

In fact, she had been ignoring all of Jude's recent messages.

She was still somewhat resentful that he had wanted to pull his investment.

Under her cold shoulder treatment,

Jude hadn't tried to contact her

directly again but he had been

asking about PerseTechron

at

WhatsApp and subtly hinting withdrawing his funds, all of which Bianca had ignored.

Now that her confidence was restored, she was calmly typing out a reply.

Jude, knowing he had no chance of getting his money back, could only place his hopes in Bianca, praying that PerseTech would successfully go public so he would have something to show Seymour Wilder.

Bianca wrote to him, "Don't worry. I consider you a friend, so of course I wouldn't hurt you. I didn't let you withdraw your investment before because I wanted to help you out

been

one more time. After all ur

completely kicked out of

of Seymour

Group, and a lot of people are waiting to see you fail."

"Once PerseTeeh is successfully listed, you'll be a shareholder with original stock. Your returns will far exceed anything from Seymour Group No one will dare look down on you again, and you'll have the resources to buy back Seymour Group and answer to your father!"
