The pace at which Souna was raking in money filled ine with intense anger and jealousy.


    In that moment, she fully grasped that Souna had undergone aplete transformation, and it had happened swiftly and dramatically.


    With earnings soaring to tens of thousands of dors each day, Souna’s annual ie could easily reach between 10 to 20 million dors.


    Despite ine residing in a vi worth over 100 million yuan, she knew deep down that she would never amass such wealth in eight lifetimes.<fnb79d> Find the newest release on Find?Novel</fnb79d>


    Even though ine had little knowledge of the Inte, she sensed a trend emerging. With tears in her eyes, she eximed, “Souna is like a henying golden eggs! If this trajectory continues, those eggs will only getrger. Right now, she’s making tens of thousands a day, but soon she might be earning hundreds of thousands a day, and potentially reach 100 million a year…”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    At this point, ine broke down, crying out, “God, how can you let someone like Souna seed! Even a dog should not be turned into a winner like her!”


    ire, unable to endure her mother’s distress any longer, quickly tried to console her, saying, “Mom, let’s focus on our own lives. Why get caught up in other people’s affairs? Don’t let their sesses dampen our spirits.”


    ine sobbed, “What do you know? Watching her make money is worse than my own losses! If only God would allow it, I’d trade my other leg just to take away Souna’s reputation and return her to what she once was!”


    ire, looking puzzled, asked, “Mom… why are you so worked up?”


    “You just don’t understand…” ine cried out, her voice choked with emotion. “In my life, I’ve faced the worst bullying from two people: Mrs. Wilson and Souna! Everyone else can thrive, but why can’t I?”


    Charlie sighed, reflecting, “Downstairs, my father-inw is weeping over a broken love affair, and upstairs, my mother-inw is in a jealous rage over Souna. Today’s family atmosphere seems less than harmonious…”


    Suddenly, ine had a thought and eximed, “I swear, I’m going to report her on the short video tform! If that doesn’t work, I’ll storm their headquarters and protest! I will expose Souna’s lies! I can’t believe the owner of that tform would let such a scammer thrive!”


    Charlie couldn’t help but chuckle at this, realizing she was indirectly referring to him.


    Long ago, Charlie had asked Tang Sihai to purchase that popr short video tform. Back then, live emerce wasn’t as booming as it is now, so the investment seemed reasonable.


    Now, with live emerce flourishing, that tform had be thergest sales channel in China, its value soaring two to three times, and its profits exceeding 100 billion yuan.


    If he continued to hold onto it while waiting for a strong growth report over the next three years, once it went public on NASDAQ, its market value could easily reach tens of billions of dors.


    This is the essence of capital investment: identifying a project, buying it at a low price, and riding the wave of growth.


    A great example is Peter Thiel, who was the first angel investor in Facebook. He invested $500,000 andter exited with a staggering return of $1 billion, a 20,000-fold increase.


    Charlie’s mother, Lydia (also known as Ava), was quite adept at this; most of her Silicon Valley investments had achieved growth exceeding ten thousand times.


    Having entered the short video tform market early on, Charlie was keenly aware of the current live streaming craze. He recognized that many online personalities, like Souna, existed solely to make money, regardless of the stories they spun or the personas they created.


    Even those ultra-wealthy individuals unting their vast mansions on social media were merely leveraging short video tforms to boost their ie.


    In fact, many of them were not rich heirs at all; theirvish lifestyles were scripted by inte celebrity managementpanies.


    As the owner of the short video tform, Charlie acknowledged that while he found Souna and her ilk distasteful, he understood this represented market trends and business realities.


    After all, most people in the country were ordinary workers or even farmers, which is the market that allpanies are currently targeting, including these inte celebrities. If such figures were excluded from his tform, they would simply migrate elsewhere, creating the same narratives.


    This would ultimately lead to a division of traffic and hosts acrosspeting tforms, jeopardizing the integrity of his own.


    Many once-prominent intepanies had failed to navigate these waters correctly, leading to their downfall.


    Thus, instead of trying to reason with ine, he turned to ire and said, “Sweetheart, let’s step outside and give Mom some space.”


    ire nodded with a sigh, telling ine, “Mom, please take care of yourself. Charlie and I will step out for a bit.”


    Ignoring them, ine remained on the bed, weeping uncontrobly.


    Meanwhile, Jacob, feeling the weight of Charlie’s words, sat alone on the floor in front of the sofa, a cigarette in hand, curled up and crying just like ine.


    Charlie, feeling helpless, turned to ire and suggested, “Why don’t we just let them be and give them time to adjust?”
