"What’s the matter?"

James O’Neal asked somewhat puzzled.

Donnie grinned, "We’re preparing to end the battle with Sinclair Oil Corporation tomorrow!"

End?

James O’Neal and Robert Stewart first thought it was impossible. Donnie was clearly at an actual advantage, so how could he possibly end it now?

Then, they realized what Donnie meant by ’end’ was not that he was going to stop shorting Sinclair Oil Corporation, but he had decided to completely bring down Sinclair Oil Corporation’s stock price tomorrow!

And they, to a greater or lesser extent, each held some Sinclair Oil Corporation stock in their hands.

Meaning, Donnie’s real intention was to get them to sell their shares in Sinclair Oil Corporation tomorrow as well!

Thinking this, both men broke out in a cold sweat.

If that was the case, then to what depths would Sinclair Oil Corporation’s stock price plunge tomorrow?

Harry Sinclair would probably lose control of Sinclair Oil Corporation completely!

For a company’s founder, there is no greater tragedy than losing control of one’s own company.

And Donnie was saying this out of caution, not wanting to fall under the accusation of manipulating stock prices. Stay connected through novelbuddy

Robert Stewart asked Donnie with some curiosity, "Donnie, there’s something I want to ask!"

Donnie nodded, "Please do!"

Robert Stewart asked, "How did you settle on Sinclair Oil Corporation at the beginning? After all, at that time, there were three companies before you."

Donnie laughed, "It’s simple, because at that time my gaze just happened to fall on the piece of paper belonging to Sinclair Oil Corporation."

Luck!

Hearing Donnie say this, both Robert Stewart and James O’Neal felt like they had escaped a disaster.

If at that time Donnie had turned his attention to their company, would they have been able to handle Donnie’s barrage of blows over the past period?

The answer, of course, was negative!

Although Donnie hadn’t discussed cooperation with James O’Neal and Robert Stewart as he had with Eduardo Doheny, this evening’s meeting actually settled all issues concerning Pandora Oil Company.

From now on, Pandora Oil Company would soar like an angel with wings spread wide!

After the two men left, Donnie said to William Mellon with a smile, "I’ve said it before, you should have trusted me. How could I possibly cooperate with them behind Mellon’s back!"

William Mellon chuckled and did not linger on the matter with Donnie.

When the two returned to the other living room, the others were happily chatting. Seeing Donnie and William return, they immediately inquired how it went with James O’Neal and Robert Stewart.

First, he talked about the reconciliation between both parties. Then Donnie told everyone about his plans to finish shorting Sinclair Oil Corporation’s stock tomorrow.

"Will they sell off Sinclair Oil Corporation’s stock tomorrow?"

Maholi asked uncertainly.

"They definitely will!" Walker explained to her, "But they definitely won’t sell off at the very start. They will first seriously observe the situation. If Harry Sinclair really can’t raise the funds on his end, and our side starts selling off Sinclair Oil Corporation’s stock like a juggernaut, then they will surely follow!"

Strike while the iron is hot!

Although this proverb didn’t exist in the United States, the mentality was the same.

Otherwise, the Sinclair Oil Corporation’s stock would end up trapped in their hands.

This is something no businessperson can accept.

At that moment, Donnie said to Jesse Livermore, "Mr. Livermore, when we start tomorrow, we must implement according to plan. However, if Sinclair Oil Corporation’s stock price has already plummeted due to our push, then we just need to add fuel to the fire!"

Whether it was the Sinclair Oil Corporation stock that Donnie had previously sold off, or the ones he still held, all had to be returned to the brokerage.

Donnie believed that given Sinclair Oil Corporation’s standing as a quality oil company, once the stock price fell to a certain level, there would definitely be individuals or companies ready to bottom-fish.

In fact, no need for these people, once they notice Donnie beginning to bottom-fish, everyone would know it’s time to act.

So at that time, Donnie would face fierce competition. Rather than that, it’s better to forego some immediate gains to ensure one’s own safety!

Jesse Livermore nodded slightly. Although he had much to say to Donnie, the present setting was obviously inappropriate. Hence, he decided to wait until after this short-selling battle had fully ended, to find an opportunity for a heart-to-heart talk with Donnie.

Previous experiences like that of Thomas had made Jesse Livermore decide not to take anyone’s advice. But this short-selling campaign that Donnie had launched was a completely new and unprecedented kind on Wall Street. He really wanted to ask Donnie about this subject so that if he faced similar scenarios in the future, he would have a clearer understanding.

"All right, everyone!" Donnie clapped to draw everyone’s attention, then smiled, "Now that the official business is done, let’s start tonight’s dinner. But for tomorrow’s final showdown, let’s skip the alcohol today. Conserve energy, all for tomorrow’s final battle!"

Hearing Donnie say this, everyone was momentarily lost in thought. The time had come for the final battle, and everyone present had participated in it. Each person had their own feelings about this fight.

So hearing now that the battle was coming to an end, although there was no reluctance, there were sentiments nonetheless!

Led by Donnie, everyone walked out of the room and into the reserved dining hall to start what seemed to be a dinner or perhaps a late-night meal.

At the table, everyone was thinking about how tomorrow’s battle would end!
