Businesswoman Chapter 233

The note still clung to Loreen’s thoughts, even with the influx of business concerns she engaged in during the day. She felt bereft of all vigor. There seemed to be an overwhelming sense that she could balance the portfolio she constructed and also find out who created the cryptic poem.

She, nevertheless, continued with her money-making matters. Instead of going into town and looking around her office in the skyscraper, she remained at home. A fireplace gave off sparks and warmed her mind. She still felt for Lisa. There existed an idea that she could be a matchmaker and cash generator all the time.

She sat in front of her desktop and checked her investments. Pie charts and bar graphs looked like actual pastries and fingers reaching up with abundant assertion. She moved the funds around to places where the dollars could flow like water. She found a tiny red flag next to one of her investments.

The flag indicated that a company named Nika’s Nails had filed for bankruptcy.

She remembered breaking ground on the firm. She had made a conservative ten million dollars from Nika’s Nails. She sighed and sold her shares which had dwindled to about fifty thousand dollars, now.

More red flags popped up like a game of Minesweeper. She readied herself for it. Out of all the cash outs, she created more wealth. A twinge of sadness clouded her mind slightly. But business came first over her feelings. By trimming the companies that had failed, she felt like she was pruning her garden.

When the last one came to her screen, she opened her email. She noticed that the poem broadcast across her screen. Not just the physical but the digital note tried to scare her. Undeterred, she marched on and sent it to trash.
