Chapter 1114:
If Millie had really been shifting her funds from gold to copper over the past few days, she would have been buying near the market’s bottom.
And now, with copper prices surging uncontrollably, Millie was almost certainly sitting on enormous profits.
Babette’s anger flared, her teeth nearly grinding as she struggled to contain it. She fixed the secretary with a piercing glare.
“Weren’t we told she was focused on gold? And now it’s copper?” she snapped.
The secretary stammered, caught off guard.
If Millie had misled them before about concentrating on copper, it was entirely possible she had done the same with gold. No one, whether an individual or a company, willingly revealed their true strategy to an opponent—they weren’t naive.
And of course, Millie did hold investments in both commodities. The only question was which one she had chosen to prioritize.
“Miss Watson, we really can’t wait any longer!” someone pressed once more, urgency lacing their voice.
Minutes ticked by, and copper prices continued their relentless climb.
The international market had no ceiling—prices could keep soaring indefinitely.
And with each upward tick, their losses grew, mounting faster than they could contain.
Babette’s fists tightened as her eyes locked on the climbing graph.
Millie’s vast funds were all tied up in copper.
No… this couldn’t go on.
No way!
She forced herself to breathe, brushing off the mounting losses as if they were trivial.

This was only the liquid portion of her capital—readily accessible cash.
Most of her wealth remained tied up elsewhere, temporarily illiquid, but fully available when the right moment came.
Fueled by a sudden surge of determination—and a hint of desperation—Babette’s voice rang out, sharp and commanding.
“Continue the suppression p>
The team exchanged uneasy glances, clearly taken aback.
“Miss Watson, continuing the suppression now isn’t wise!” one warned.
“Exactly! Don’t act on impulse!” another added.
“Think this through—be rational,” a third urged.
But Babette was beyond listening.
Her eyes blazed with defiance as she shot back, “I’m the one responsible for these decisions! You don’t carry the burden—just follow my orders p>
Reluctantly, the team nodded and carried out her orders—but it was already too late.
Copper prices continued their relentless climb, and all they could do was watch the losses pile up.
“Miss Watson, we can’t keep going like this. The losses are already enormous…” one of them urged cautiously.
