Chapter 97 The Storm is Coming
Manhattan, New York.
Inside the master bedroom of an apartment building on the Upper West Side.
Although it is still cold outside, the central air conditioning keeps the indoor temperature at around 20 degrees Celsius.
However, the slightly open window still allowed the cool spring breeze to blow in, causing the white gauze curtains to sway from time to time.
"Cough cough... ugh..."
Monica, who was naked and had fair skin, lifted the quilt and her pretty face turned red.
The Italian national treasure beauty's eyes were full of resentment. She quickly pulled out a stack of tissues and began to cough and retch.
“Huh~”
Milo's tense toes also relaxed and he let out a sigh of relief.
I was really irritable in the morning. Luckily I brought Monica with me, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do, hehe...
"Hey, hey, what are you looking at..." Milo felt like he was pierced by the indignant look of Monica, whose resentment was almost turning into a shikigami behind her.
"Seven o'clock! Boss, my big boss! It's already eight o'clock! Can I sleep a little longer? I've been in New York for so long, and I'm late for work every day. I end up going to the company at noon every time."
Monica's face turned red. After wiping her mouth with a tissue, she threw the large ball of tissue in her hand onto the carpet and used several exclamatory sentences to vent her dissatisfaction:
"Oh my God! God knows how much I want to go to work early every day! God knows how much I want to not be late! I really don't want to be late! Really... Zeta-Jones and Jolie should all be tied up here!"
Milo looked at Monica, who was angry and didn't care about her graceful figure being exposed. He knew that he had gone too far and coughed lightly, "You should sleep a little longer..."
After saying that, he got out of bed and walked quickly into the bathroom.
"Ah..." Looking at Milo who ran into the bathroom, Monica Bellucci grabbed her hair in shame and anger. She didn't dare to lose her temper too much with Master Milo and could only sulk in her heart.
In the bathroom, Milo heard Monica's frustrated voice in the bedroom, curled his lips, and turned on the shower to take a shower with a refreshed mind.
Isn't the job of a pretty secretary to...
My period is over and I can’t close my legs.
My period is here, can't I close my mouth? It's not good to complain so much, it seems that I need to be disciplined.
Milo thought evilly as he turned off the shower, wiped the water off his body, took his bathrobe from the hanger, put it on, and walked out of the bathroom.
After coming to the living room and asking Wendy's sister, Mrs. Solly, his personal nanny, to prepare breakfast, Milo sat on the sofa, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
“It’s really a beautiful scenery every day!”
After reading the two news reports, Milo's mouth twitched a few times.
Last night at a shopping mall in Utah, a gunman broke into the mall and began shooting, killing and injuring several people. Witnesses said they heard about 20 gunshots.
Coincidentally, a shooting also occurred in Philadelphia yesterday, March 2, which has resulted in 5 deaths.
With this shooting rate, it’s no wonder that military doctors from the other side of the strait have to come here for training.
There is really so much clinical experience with shootings, except in war-torn countries.
The United States is probably the only country in the world that has these conditions.
Just then, Milo saw Kenny and David walk in.
As the personal bodyguard and security captain, these two people are actually the closest to Milo.
Today Milo didn't read the newspaper before having breakfast.
Instead, he spoke to two bodyguards who had already had breakfast.
After taking a bite of the sandwich, Milo said to David, "It was said on TV that more than 50 people were shot to death yesterday."
David and Kenny looked at each other and shook their heads and laughed. Kenny said, "This is very normal. The real number is much higher than that."
He has worked in both the CIA and the Secret Service.
As an industry insider, Kenny is aware of the media's statistics on shooting deaths.
Very moist.
This does not mean that the number is small, but that the actual number of people killed by BIU is actually more than what has been announced.
But this is America, and real Americans have adapted to it since childhood.
Kenny thought.
Only a young master like the boss who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth could be like this.
Live in the safest community and get the best security job since childhood.
That's why I care about these things.
"The two of us, plus Das and George, the four of us are actually enough to protect your safety, boss."
David also spoke up: "Boss, you usually don't go to crowded places. Four people are enough. If the person who comes is something that the four of us can't handle, then it doesn't matter if we have twice as many people."
"I know."
Although Milo knew it, he was not going to compromise. "The security company is ready to sign the contract. After we get it, you can accompany me to select the outstanding talents there."
Kenny nodded to show that he understood, and David responded.
After dealing with the matter concerning his own personal safety, Milo cut the steak on the plate into small pieces and put down the knife.
He began to put beef into his mouth with a fork, and with his other hand he opened a newspaper, which was the Wall Street Journal.
Today is Monday after all, the day the stock market reopens.
After finding the financial edition, Milo couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly because he saw his own photo on it.
It was a photo of Milo coming out of the skyscraper where Paladin Investments was located, surrounded by a group of bodyguards, and preparing to get into a car.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The photo was not complete, only his tough and handsome profile was captured.
There were also David and his friends who were burly, wearing sunglasses and had serious and stern expressions.
You know what, this photo is beautiful.
It feels like a close-up of a Hollywood blockbuster.
With the steel jungle of Wall Street behind it, it looks a bit like the Godfather in the movie.
You can tell at first glance that he's not a good person.
The headline of the news is: "Super director? Genius writer? Not only that, but also a top financier!"
The previous content is okay, it talks about the popularity of a novel and a movie, "The Da Vinci Code" and "Angels and Demons".
In the meantime, I also helped promote his new book, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", which was released on January 1.
If you look at it from this perspective, Milo should thank them.
But most of the following content is about his earning $1.34 billion in the stock market in the past month from a seemingly flattering but actually questionable perspective.
The reason why Milo felt suspicious.
Because there was no coverage of his stock market profits last week and over the weekend.
Although the fact that he earned $1.34 billion is not a top secret.
Anyone who wants to check Wall Street can find out. And as the mouthpiece of Wall Street, the Wall Street Journal happens to be the best at this.
It's not surprising to know this and the exact number.
But… today is Monday.
This means that the stock market, which has been closed for two days, is about to reopen.
The problem is the weekends.
On the other side of the ocean, a black swan incident occurred in which the US aircraft carrier fleet withdrew without authorization.
The incident occurred during the weekend when global stock markets were closed.
Such bad news had been brewing for two days.
It is obvious that military industry stocks plummeted after today's opening.
Milo also feels that even some machinery and industrial-related stocks may be affected and plummet.
And just in time, he started shorting last Friday.
When these two things are combined, it doesn't seem so simple.
Milo flipped through the financial pages of several other newspapers and found that they all reported on his making money in the stock market.
1.34 billion US dollars, a shocking number.
In these newspapers, even if it is not the front-page headline, it is at least the second or important third article.
Taking all this into account, Milo closed the newspaper.
The storm is about to come!
