Chapter 526
“I’m so jealous of you guys, but I really can’t get away right now,” Mira said. The siege on Porter Entertainment was reaching its climax; she couldn’t step away from the battlefield.
“What could possibly keep you so busy, Mira?” Liora asked. “You’re not doing concerts anymore. Are you writing new music p>
“No, I’m working on something else.” Mira hated keeping her friends in the dark, but she envied Liora’s blissful ignorance.
“Something else? Like what? Are you trading stocks again? Take us with you!” Liora pleaded, her eyes practically sparkling through the phone. She knew Mira was Lady Oracle, the legendary stock market prodigy whose identity had been leaked to the public. Liora had made a killing following Mira’s early advice, and she was currently living off the massive profits Mira had helped her secure.
“It’s a bloodbath out there right now. I can’t bring you into this, I’m sorry.” Destroying Porter Entertainment wasn’t a guaranteed payday—it was a high-stakes war that required burning through astronomical amounts of cash.
The ultimate outcome rested entirely on whether the Porters could withstand the barrage. If Porter Entertainment collapsed, everyone shorting it would get rich. If they survived, Mira and every retail investor riding her coattails would face catastrophic losses.
“Can you at least tell me which stock it is p>
Mira smiled softly. “No p>
Even though the entire financial sector knew the consecutive plunges in Porter stock were the Mercer siblings’ brutal retaliation, no one dared to say it on the record. They watched, analyzed, and quietly placed their bets, eager to scavenge the remains. But publicly, it was a ghost war.
“Well, if Mira can’t make it, it’s just the two of us,” Celine interjected smoothly, sensing Liora’s confusion.
Coming from a powerful business family, Celine understood that some corporate secrets were matters of life and death. Liora, who wore her heart on her sleeve and shared every secret with her best friends, couldn’t fathom why Mira was being so guarded.
After hanging up, Mira headed straight to the command center.
When the market opened, Porter stock immediately went into a freefall. Roxanne was clearly struggling to secure a fresh injection of capital.
Meanwhile, the retail investors, emboldened by Lady Oracle’s unwavering aggression, flooded the market with sell orders.
In reality, Mira had deployed less than ten million dollars today. The frenzied mob of retail traders did the heavy lifting, driving the stock straight to the limit down.
If this momentum held, Porter’s valuation would hit rock bottom in a matter of days. Once it did, Mira could scoop up the controlling shares for pennies on the dollar.
When a corporate giant like Porter
Entertainment bled out to this
extent, loyalty evaporated.
Shareholders would eagerly

Capturing over fifty percent of the shares meant absolute dominance over the Porter empire. Then, she would mercilessly beat the drowning dog.

As long as the price remained in the gutter, liquidating her short positions would yield a phenomenal profit. And all the retail traders who followed her into the dark would reap their rewards as well.
The war room felt strangely relaxed today. They had achieved maximum devastation with minimal effort.
Mira was in high spirits. “You’ve all been working relentlessly. Let’s wrap up an hour early today. Go home, get some rest. Tomorrow we keep. pushing. Once this campaign is over, the bonuses will be massive The better the results, the bigger the payout. Your salaries will reflect this victory p>
“Thank you, boss!” the team cheered.
On the drive home, Lenny’s name flashed on the dashboard screen. “Boss. Mara
