“As the only internet company that has managed to successfully rebrand itself and gain profits, what do
you expect the shares for Sena to be priced at when it goes public?” Jasper asked.
However, Celine shook her head and said, “It’s too early to tell now. There are so many factors that
would affect the share price.
“Of course, the most basic prerequisite would be the company’s competence and financial status.
“Next up would be how the company goes public. Colossal Investments will help you get in touch with a
bunch of millionaires who make private placements before the share market opens. This will be a great
plus for us when the news goes public.”
“I’m already doing that,” Jasper said as he gave Celine a meaningful smile.
“I’ve gotten in touch with the J. Langdons and the Law family in Harbor City. They’ve offered their full
support.”
Jasper and Kayden had come up with that plan the last time they met.
News of multi-millionaire Half-the-Harbor Langdon making private placements in Sena would certainly
benefit the company.
At first, Kayden had thought Jasper was only letting him make private placements so he would put in a
good word for him at the trade settlement center. However, he had not expected Jasper to have more
tricks up his sleeve.
They were merely harmless tricks, though.
Thus, Kayden had merely smiled and glossed over it after he learned about it.
Celine was surprised, but she did not probe for further details.
“Alright, it seems like Colossal Investments won’t be earning commissions from you, but that’s alright.
Colossal Investments will take care of the entire listing process for Sena, including the promotional
activities in America.
“How many shares are you willing to put up as shares outstanding?”
Shares that were bought, sold, and traded on the share market were known as shares outstanding.
These shares would be diluted before a company went public.
As Sena’s only investor, Jasper had complete say in whether he wanted to put up 10% or 50%.
The higher the number of shares, the higher the number of stocks, and the lower the price per share.
However, this had nothing to do with the company’s total market value after it was listed. Comment by

Just like how both one one-hundred dollar bill and ten ten-dollar bills would both total to a hundred
dollars.
Jasper had already thought about this, so he immediately answered, “32% shares.”
Celine frowned slightly as she said tentatively, “Companies usually issue at least 40% of their shares
as shares outstanding if they want to be listed on the Nasdaq Composite…”
“Listing Sena publicly is just one part of my business strategy. It’s not the entirety of the plan.
“Besides…
“Only I can control Sena! And by that, I mean I will hold absolute control over the remaining 67%. I
won’t allow anyone to become a shareholder or part of the board of directors and mock me!”
Jasper said without hesitation.
Celine said nonchalantly, “Alright. Your company, your call. Colossal Investments won’t make any
further comments if you’ve already decided on issuing 32% of your shares.”
“I’ll have my team meet up with Sena and crosscheck figures with the accounting, financial, and
general management department this afternoon before we come up with a final evaluation report this
afternoon. This report will first be audited internally by Colossal Investments before it’s passed to the
Nasdaq Review Committee for its final deliberation,” Celine said.
“I’ll put a word in with Sena and ensure they cooperate fully with your investigation,” Jasper said as he
nodded.
Upon finishing their formal discussion, Jasper and Celine had lunch and enjoyed a pleasant time
together.
After that, Jasper was stunned to hear that Celine had booked a room beside his room.
“I was too lazy to book another hotel. Are you not open to having me as your next-door neighbor?”
Celine said as she smiled and waved her key card in front of Jasper.
“Of course, you’re welcome,” Jasper said with an odd expression on his face. “It’s better this way too.
We can contact each other easily if there’s anything that needs to be discussed.”
“I heard your game is super popular now. Why don’t we go try it out this afternoon?” Celine said
invitingly.
“I have another meeting this afternoon…” Jasper was just about to refuse when he heard Celine say, “I
can let you have the final say in regards to the amount of commission you’ll receive.”
“Alright, I’ll call on you this afternoon,” Jasper said as he smiled.
“Hah, men.” Celine turned and pranced back into her room after she glanced flirtatiously at Jasper.
Behind her, Miss Stone was gritting her teeth as she glared at Jasper. She said softly, “I’m warning you,
don’t even think about laying a hand on her, or else you’ll be in deep trouble.”
Jasper glanced nonchalantly at Miss Stone whom he had never gotten along with. He said calmly,
“Can’t you tell that your employer is the one who’s trying to seduce me? Why don’t you try saying
something to her?”
Paying no attention to the stony expression on Miss Stone’s face, Jasper turned and walked back into
his room.
When Miss Stone finally suppressed her anger and entered the room, she saw Celine sitting on the
couch with a glass of red wine. She seemed to be waiting for her as she swirled the liquid in the glass
nonchalantly.
“Miss Maynard,” Miss Stone said carefully.
“What did you tell him?” Celine asked with a blank expression on her face.
Miss Stone’s body stiffened as she hurriedly said, “No-Nothing. I just wanted to say goodbye to him.”
“Really?” Celine smiled. She obviously did not believe her words.
She gazed at the liquid that was swirling in the glass. The maroon-colored liquid crashed against the
walls of the glass before slowly dripping back down. It was a lovely sight to behold.
“If my husband, who is also your employer, is allowed to have mistresses, why can’t I have a lover?”
“You can very well go tattling to him, but remember that I know about everything you’ve done. Don’t try
to anger me, understand?”
Miss Stone’s entire body stiffened as she said shakily, “Yes, understood.”
