My Birthday, My Downfall novel Chapter 68

As expected, not long after, Aunt Stevens's company's confidential information was leaked, causing a massive drop in stock prices. People in the company were in panic, employees whispered about their futures.

As the saying goes, "When the wall falls, everyone pushes it down." Soon enough, Aunt Stevens's company had to declare bankruptcy. Aunt Stevens watched helplessly as the house was mortgaged, and we were left on the streets.

Aunt Stevens looked dejected, her eyes full of fatigue and disappointment. She said, "Maybe this is fate."

I comforted Aunt Stevens, "Don't be discouraged, Aunt Stevens. We'll bounce back together."

When my father saw the situation was bad, he naturally wouldn't suffer alongside Aunt Stevens, and not long after, he left us.

On my mother's side, she encountered a senior from university who had secretly liked her, and this senior was already a billionaire CEO. In order to win my mother over, the CEO showered her with endless affection and luxury. Not long after, my mother and brother moved into a mansion, living a life of luxury.

Aunt Stevens looked at me and suggested, "Bryan, why don't you try going to your mother? Maybe she can help you. After all, you're her biological son. She won't ignore you."

I firmly refused, "Aunt Stevens, even if I go to her, she won't care about me. It was you who helped me when I was in the most difficult time. Now, I want to face this hardship with you. I won't be an ungrateful person."

Aunt Stevens looked at me with tears in her eyes, "Child, why do you have to be like this?"

I said firmly, "Aunt Stevens, I've always known how much you've done for me. You provided me with good living and study conditions, allowing me to be where I am today. Now it's my turn to repay you. Besides, in my past life, I was somewhat interested in stocks and have some experience. I want to see if I can help you."

Aunt Stevens hesitated for a moment but eventually nodded, "Okay, you can give it a try."

Coincidentally, I had just graduated from college and began to fully dedicate myself to stock research. I analyzed market trends and studied various data and reports day and night.

Aunt Stevens trusted me completely.

I didn't let her down. Using memories and experiences from my past life, I quickly made some impressive gains.

Aunt Stevens was delighted, "Child, I didn't expect you had such ability."

I smiled and said, "Aunt Stevens, this is just the beginning. I believe that as long as we stick to it, we'll make your comeback."

A month later, after my careful handling, we earned 2 million dollars.

Though for Aunt Stevens, that amount was just a small drop in the ocean, not nearly enough to revive her company. She had to pull herself together and worked tirelessly, trying to find a breakthrough.

From that point on, Gloria and I worked together very smoothly. Gloria had solid professional knowledge and keen market insights, while I used my experiences and knowledge from both lives to offer unique perspectives.

One day, Gloria and I were discussing a new project. I believed it had great potential and could be boldly invested in. After thinking for a moment, Gloria said, "I also think it's feasible. Let's give it a try. However, we need to conduct a risk assessment to make sure everything goes smoothly."

With our combined efforts, Aunt Stevens's company gradually started showing signs of improvement. While it wasn't back to the top of the industry yet, it was definitely not something to be underestimated.

Just when Gloria and I were preparing to celebrate our success, we ran into my brother, who was with a small celebrity. He arrogantly mocked us, saying, "Look at you two, so down and out, thinking you can rise again? How naive."

I calmly looked at him and said, "Don't get too cocky. Who will be laughing last is still uncertain."

Gloria also shot him a disdainful look, saying, "We don't need your concern. You should worry about yourself."

After hearing our words, my brother's face turned pale with anger. In the end, he could only leave with the celebrity, looking defeated.

To our surprise, before leaving, my brother turned back mysteriously and said, "Guess how your Aunt Stevens's company secrets got leaked back then?"
