Chapter 3661

After listening to Angelo, Elora smiled and said, “Since you two are so generous, I’ll invite the other sisters to join us for shopping. Let’s see how much pressure we can put on your wallets!”

“I haven’t been shopping in ages. Let’s buy whatever we like.”

The brothers nodded in agreement. Alonzo added, “Sister, you’re always so busy. You deserve a break to shop and relax.”

In the Ormond family, Elora was the busiest. Alonzo couldn’t recall ever seeing her take time for shopping or trips. She was constantly working, meeting clients, and traveling for business.

Even on weekends, she kept busy, often accompanying important clients to play sports, swim, or fish. These were major clients who brought in billions for their business.

For regular clients, Elora wouldn’t spend personal time with them—they were lucky if they even got a meeting.

Many business leaders wanted to work with the Ormond family just for the chance to meet Elora, but making an appointment with her was rare.

Elora smiled and gently touched her brothers’ faces. “I’m afraid I’ll end up spending all the money you’ve saved over the years.”

Alonzo replied, “Don’t worry, Sister. I still have money with Mom. She’s invested in financial products for me, so I earn interest every day. When she buys stocks, I invest a little too. Mom plays it safe—she sells when the stock goes up a bit. We’re not making a ton of money, but we still have enough to buy things for you.”

Elora praised him, “Alonzo, that’s impressive! You’re already learning to manage money and trade stocks. But don’t forget to focus on your studies. For now, just treat making money as a fun hobby.”

“I understand, Sister,” Alonzo said, standing a little taller after her praise.

Angelo, who had been listening, chimed in, “Brother, you’re amazing! You trade stocks with my mom? I give my money to Mom to keep safe in the bank, so I get some interest too.”

Though Angelo’s interest wasn’t as high as Alonzo’s, he had heard a bit about stock trading.

Coming from a wealthy family, business was in their blood. It seemed like they were born thinking about how to make money.

Angelo’s parents didn’t trade stocks, though. They preferred investing in other ventures. For Angelo’s New Year’s money, they deposited it in the bank to save for his future business endeavors.

Despite the Ormond family’s wealth, the parents still wanted their children to succeed on their own.

If they couldn’t, they could always come back to inherit the family business.

Elora reassured Angelo, “It’s fine to keep it in the bank. It’s low-risk.”

Unlike stock trading and financial products, bank savings were safer. Angelo’s parents were more cautious, unlike Elora’s, who were bolder with their investments.

In the Ormond family, even though the eldest Mrs. Ormond had her own business and plenty of personal wealth, she still led a quiet life. She stayed home and didn’t venture out much, yet she still found ways to make money.
