Chapter 253: 4 Leaks in Confidentiality

Lu Chen was a little worried that the fact that he and Evelin were dating would make Mitchell realize that the order was his. So Lu Chen asked Evelin:

"Evelyn, are you familiar with Mitchell? Is it possible that he knows that we are dating?"

Evelin looked at Lu Chen angrily. She said to Lu Chen:

"Is it embarrassing that I'm your girlfriend? And you're afraid of people knowing."

Lu Chen was sweating. He was a little confused about Evelin's way of thinking. He was talking to her about something, why did she jump to this? Lu Chen quickly explained:

"I didn't mean that."

"Then what do you mean?"

Lu Chen quickly said: "I just want to ask if you know Mitchell?"

"What does our relationship have to do with Mitchell? Don't change the subject."

Evelyn said angrily.

Lu Chen was speechless for a while, and he quickly said: "It is my blessing to find a girlfriend like you, how could I feel ashamed."

Evelin turned her head away and said, “I don’t believe it. You are obviously trying to fool me. This is not what you really mean.”

Lu Chen had a thousand beasts running around in his heart. He regretted it so much that he shouldn't have asked the last question. He thought about it and really didn't know how to coax Evelin, so he simply changed the subject and said:

"Honey, I want to ask you a favor."

Evelin still turned her head away, ignoring Lu Chen.

Seeing that Evelin was still ignoring him, Lu Chen was ready to provoke Evelin. So Lu Chen said:

"If you don't want to help, then I'll go find other girls."

Hearing that Lu Chen was going to find another woman, Evelin immediately said:

"You dare, if you dare to look for other women, I will let my uncle Kotchi cause trouble for your company."

Uh, it's still possible to let the president of the New York State Supreme Court come to trouble me. When a woman goes crazy, she really can't be regarded as a normal person. Lu Chen said helplessly:

"If you don't want to help me, I have to find someone else."

Evelin said, “I didn’t say I wouldn’t help, it’s just that I’ve been in a bad mood lately and I don’t want to bother with your business for the time being.”

What do you mean you are in a bad mood recently? It is obviously you who is making trouble. Lu Chen complained to Evelin in his heart. Lu Chen thought for a while and said:

"Then when are you willing to help? I have something urgent to do and I need to do it tomorrow. If you are not in a good mood these two days, then I will have to ask other people for help."

After saying that, Lu Chen began to think about other candidates in his mind. Evelin was in a bad mood, so he definitely couldn't rely on her. He still had to find someone else to take over as soon as possible, otherwise tomorrow's contract would be in trouble.

Evelin looked at Lu Chen with some doubt and asked:

"What do you have to do tomorrow?"

After thinking for a while, Lu Chen said, “Evelyn, I wonder if you have heard the news recently that the shipyards received a large order.”

Evelyn nodded and said, "I received this news a month and a half ago. After I received the news, I bought stocks of several companies on the stock market. Now those stocks have risen a lot, and the stock of General Shipbuilding has risen particularly sharply. It is said outside that General Motors will definitely win this order this time."

Hearing that Evelin had received the news a month and a half ago, Lu Chen's face turned completely black. He received the news so early. Lu Chen remembered that it was when he and Franklin had just talked about this matter. It seems that you spread the news as soon as I left, right? Lu Chen is now very skeptical about the confidentiality of the US government. With their confidentiality work that is leaking everywhere, Lu Chen doesn't know how they won the Second World War in their previous life.

Of course, if it was deliberately spread, that would be another matter. But if that was the case, then Lu Chen would have to consider whether to cooperate with the government again. Lu Chen hated it when his information was sent out as a favor.

Seeing Evelin’s smug look, Lu Chen said unhappily:

"Then do you know who this order is from?"

Evelin said nonchalantly, “I don’t care who it belongs to. Besides, does it matter whose order it is? As long as I can make money, I don’t care about anything else.”

Lu Chen was so angry at Evelin's attitude that his teeth itched. He said with a bad look:

“This order is mine.”

Evelin looked at Lu Chen in shock. She had never thought that the order would be from Lu Chen. Then she immediately became excited and said to Lu Chen:

"My dear, this order is actually yours. Why didn't you tell me earlier? By the way, which companies are you going to give the order to? Tell me and I'll buy more stocks of those companies. I'm sure I can make a lot of money this time."

As expected of a Rothschild, he is always thinking about making money. Lu Chen thought for a moment and said:

"I'm going to sign the contract tomorrow. Even if I tell you now, it will probably be too late for you to buy it."

Evelin thought for a moment and said, “That’s true. As soon as the news of the signing comes out, the stocks of those companies will definitely skyrocket. You may not be able to buy them at this time. And it’s really not very cost-effective to buy them.”

Lu Chen continued, "One of the companies I will sign a contract with tomorrow is Mitchell's shipyard. You know Mitchell and I don't get along. So..."

Before Lu Chen finished speaking, Evelin said in surprise: "Lieqi Shipyard, I received news some time ago that someone is buying a large amount of Lieqi Shipyard stocks. That person can't be you."

Lu Chen looked at Evelin with dissatisfaction, then nodded and said:

"Yes, I am buying a large amount of shares in the exotic shipyards."

Evelyn continued, "Honey, tell me the truth, how many shares of the Qiqi Shipyard did you buy?"

Lu Chen thought about it and said honestly: "I already have 30% of the shares of Lieqi Shipyard."

Eve looked at Lu Chen in disbelief. Then she asked:

"Then why didn't the exchange report any news about you raising your sign?"

Lu Chen said: "I raised my stake two months ago, so there is no news of any subsequent acquisitions."

Evelin looked at Lu Chen with a smile on her face, and then asked:

"My dear, do you have any idea about this strange shipyard and are planning to acquire it? Otherwise, why would you start acquiring it so early?"

Lu Chen said quickly: "I don't have such an idea. This shipyard has a market value of 400 to 500 million, and half of the shares are still in Mitchell's hands. How can I have so much money to acquire this shipyard now?"

Evelin didn't believe Lu Chen's words. With Lu Chen's personality, Mitchell always made trouble for Lu Chen in the past, and it would be strange if Lu Chen didn't find a chance to retaliate. Now Lu Chen has set his sights on Lieqi Shipyard. Even Evelin's grandmother wouldn't believe that Lu Chen didn't intend to acquire Lieqi Shipyard and let Mitchell lose a piece of meat.
