Chapter 767
As for whether she could be developed into a subordinate or a friend, that depended entirely on her performance.
Walking out of the dorm’s courtyard, Mira received a text from Leah.
“I’m getting close to Vanessa to infiltrate their circle, so I can tip you off if they come up with any bad ideas p>
Mira didn’t reply.
The reason she had told Leah to atone for her sins that day was actually because Mira knew how hard it was for an ordinary student to get into Aethelgard University, so she wanted to give her a chance.
In reality, she didn’t expect to gain anything from it, as long as Leah stopped trying to sabotage her.
Whether she truly wanted to be Vanessa’s lackey or act as Mira’s mole was irrelevant now.
The next afternoon, Mira and the guys headed to the FinTech Society together.
“It’s almost time to witness a miracle p>
Wyatt said as they walked.
“Who do you guys think will take first place this time p>
“I bet it’s our group. Mira will definitely get first. The money we put in has multiplied
over tenfold. It’d be a crime if she wasn’t first p>
“Exactly, I think Mira will be first, and Harvey second p>
“Thanks for the vote of confidence p>
Harvey said with a smile.
When they walked into the activity room, Quentin Reed came over to greet them. “Welcome back, Lady Oracle p>
Mira smiled. “I’m not in first place, am I p>
“You should have been first, but Wesley Langdon cheated. He also invested a hundred thousand dollars, but he earned exactly one dollar more than you, and now he’s insisting he got first.
Ugh, what kind of graduate student bullies underclassmen p>
Quentin went on a rant against Wesley; clearly, the upperclassman had really ticked him off.
Looking through the crowd, Mira spotted Wesley, who was twirling a pen and waving at her.
“Mira, I’m truly impressed. Having this level of skill as a freshman you definitely live up to the title of Lady Oracle p>
“Are you complimenting me or yourself, Wesley? I heard your results were better than mine p>
“Complimenting you, of course. When I was your age, I knew absolutely nothing p>
“What’s so great about him? He’s a graduate student and the head of the society, yet he’s snatching credit from a bunch of rookies?
Drop the first-place title right now and tell everyone you didn’t compete p>
Quentin glared at Wesley.
“No way, I’m broke. I’m not going to be polite about this, haha. I won’t compete against you guys next time p>
“Didn’t you just sell your model for millions of dollars? You’re broke already? Who are you trying to fool p>
Quentin shouted loudly.
“Don’t even mention it. I lost most of
it in the stock market last time, and now I’m struggling just to afford living expenses. Otherwise
wouldn’t be fighting you guys for the prize money p>
Wesley’s face fell.
“I thought you were amazing at stocks. How did you lose so much p>
Quentin sat on a stool, rolling his eyes as he asked sarcastically.
“It didn’t all go down the drain. I
wired a chunk of it back home ton et
build a house, and during the last de I had a rush of blood to the head and threw the rest in
“Well, you just made over a million dollars this time, so you definitely won’t be starving p>
“Of course I can afford to eat now, but for us finance majors, we always have to keep some capital to invest.
Who knows when a premium stock will show up? You can’t just be left with zero funds p>
“Fine, fine, first place goes to you.
Shameless. A grad student
competing against undergrads?
Stealing the prize money from
freshmen Unbelievable.
How about you put up a hundred thousand dollars and organize another Live-
Trading Challenge p>
Quentin was still furious.
“Didn’t we just finish one p>
Wesley disagreed.
“We’ve got things to do lately, so we won’t be able to participate p>
Harvey quickly chimed in. Better to hold off.
