Chapter 53 Political Conspiracy

The Duke of Orleans immediately thought of the Paris Angel Company that Joseph had established.

He didn't know much about the shop, having visited only once to buy a one thousand livres VIP card for his mistress—simply because she had pestered him about it for days.

However, he had heard that the ladies of the Palace of Versailles were crazily snapping up the expensive cosmetics from the shop as if enchanted.

The Duke of Orleans then remembered that the papers had been talking about the Paris Angel Company issuing shares these past few days.

He couldn't help but squint, it seemed that the six million livres might indeed have come from selling shares. Could a shop that sold women's skincare products really be worth six million livres?!

In fact, this was still without Joseph thinking about cashing out in large quantities—he still had 1.8 million shares of the Paris Angel Company that he could sell, which could net him another six or seven million if he sold them all.
