Chapter 135
“Again?” Reginald hummed calmly. “When you were twelve, you also said you couldn’t remember wanting to be my apprentice at eight.”
Natalie quietly retorted. “…I was just teasing you then; this time really don’t remember.”
“Well, you’re my apprentice now,” Reginald said and immediately perked up. “I can’t let this slide, I need to call those old- cronies myself. They’re so sly that if I don’t outright ask for gifts, they won’t bring any!
With that, he took out his phone and started asking for gifts.
Natalie wanted to ask more, but he was already loudly chanting away on the phone.
She raised an eyebrow in resignation and didn’t think much of it slowly strolling out.
Behind her. Darren’s eyes darkened as Natalie once again amazed him.
When she turned a few bucks into approximately 66 thousand dollars, he suspected she knew her way around the stock market. But he never imagined the truth would be even more astounding! She was noticed by Reginald at the age of eight, and he even made an effort to take her on as his apprentice? That was Reginald, the legendary first–generation stock whiz!
Everyone in the circle knew that Reginald highly valued talent when taking on proteges. He had always said that when it comes to trading stocks, it’s all about having keen insight, sharp instincts, and a steady mindset–these are what people call
talent.
In any industry, to achieve some success, hard work and diligence usually suffice. But to become legendary, talent is crucial Despite all these years, Reginald has never forgotten about Natalie, even chasing her to become his student. This only proves how extraordinary Natalie’s stock trading talent is! Who exactly is Natalie, and what other hidden talents does she have?
“Darren?” A soft female voice sounded in his ear, snapping him back to reality.
Darren glanced at Vivian but kept walking forward.
Vivian’s eyes instantly reddened as she followed him closely. “Darren are you still mad at me?”
Darren felt annoyed. “Vivian, did you just ignore everything I said when we broke up?”
He said if she kept bothering him immaturely, he could either uplift her or ruin her.
Vivian’s face turned pale, but she decided to take a chance, “Darren… but I like you, and I want to fight for us.
If she didn’t fight for it, her life would soon be unmanageable, Ever since she and Darren broke up, apart from the resources she already had, others were being pulled away or grabbed by others. When Darren had her back, no one dared to touch the things she fancied, not even giving them an extra glance. But now, everyone could step on her, and the only reason some held back was that they were still watching the situation. If she didn’t leverage Darren’s influence, she’d be in big trouble!
“Vivian.” He called her name.
She looked at him shyly.
His expression was a knowing half–smile, silent with an air of authority.
Everyone around fell silent.
“Stop with your little plans,” Darren suddenly smirked, hands in pockets as he walked forward, “Don’t follow me.”

Vivian pressed her lips together, standing frozen.
She thought, ‘Does he know what Im up to? That dr
He must try to frighten me!”
But it did affect her. Whether due to fear or sadness, she couldn’t hold back her tears.
The comment section was buzzing with chatter.
[Mr. Luther used to treat Vivian like a queen, now he’s being so cold! I won’t believe that he hasn’t changed his mind
I thought Mr. Luther joined the Dating Show to win back Vivian. But the way he looks at Natalie seems different.]
[What couple doesn’t say harsh things during a breakup? Mr. Luther and Vivian are just taking a break. They’ll definitely get back together!]
[Didn’t you notice the longing and reluctance in Mr. Luther’s eyes just now? He definitely still loves Vivian“]
When Darren arrived at the private lounge, it was already full. The guests were all from the finance and investment circles, people he had interacted with occasionally before. He nodded politely to everyone before taking his seat.
At that moment, Reginald cheerfully helped Natalie to her feet.
With a tone full of pride, he announced, “Everyone, quiet down I’d like to introduce my star student, Natalie!
Everyone, please give
The audience applauded enthusiastically as Natalie bowed. As she straightened up, her stunningly beautiful face left everyone breathless.
Today’s guests were all Reginald’s close friends. Many had seen the large family photo in his home and immediately recognized Natalie because her face was unforgettable.
“Hey, isn’t that the girl from your family photo? Is she… the one from back then?”
“Yeah, yeah, I knew she looked familiar!”
“The Prodigy? Are you talking about the one who became famous in the stock market thirteen years ago?”
Reginald was thrilled, and such questions only boosted his pride. He nodded eagerly, wanting to announce it to the world! “Yes! That’s right! It’s her!” “Back then, my young protege was just eight years old, investing in stocks for the first time, and she made over a million!” “Which one of your apprentices can measure up to my precious protege?”
With Reginald’s personal endorsement, everyone in the room was thrilled. Such a stock market genius is incredibly rare! Who wouldn’t want a genius apprentice? Even if you’re not a genius yourself, having a genius apprentice is quité impressive!”
Everyone started trying to recruit the talent right on the spot.
“Hey, girl, join me! Old man Reginald has a tricky temper, really harsh! Be my apprentice, and I’ll treat you like a treasure!” “Girl, stay with me! I’ve never had an apprentice in my life; with you, you’ll be my one and only!”
“Girl…
Reginald was so angry he puffed up his cheeks. “That’s enough! If you try stealing my apprentice again, I’ll knock your teeth
Out!”
Everyone burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became lively and joyful.

A group of investment big shots sat together, talking only about investments and stocks. Their conversation flowed effortlessly, but the viewers in the livestream were utterly confused, complaining in the comment section.
[I’m crying, I can’t understand a single thing they are saying!]
[I just looked up the prodigy and couldn’t believe it. Natalie is that girl! Wow! She’s incredible!]
[Haha. I saw that news too. The mysterious girl didn’t even show her face, so how can they be sure it’s Natalie?]
Is it that hard to admit my Nat is outstanding? Would Mr. Chance ever lie?]
[It’s definitely not Natalie. If she were so fantastic, why isn’t she speaking up now? Everyone knows she loves to show off, and with such a great stage, why isn’t she performing? Isn’t it just because she’s too dumbfounded to understand?]
Just then, someone at the dinner table called out to Natalie. “Girl, what’s your take on the current economic situation”
Even though the question was directed at Natalie, the view
