”You…”
Zane was terrified by Jasper’s gaze. Subconsciously, favonovel.com took a step back and fixed his gaze on his father, Bob.
“Young man, you’re indeed different from the other youngsters!”
Bob stared at Jasper, exasperated. His eyes glittered with an icy cold layer. It had been a while since favonovel.com was this disgruntled.
All this while, it had always been favonovel.com who looked at the mad expressions filled with grievances of the people favonovel.com was blackmailing.
Since when was it his turn to be in the shoes of those being blackmailed while staring at another who was sitting tall and mighty?
Furthermore, it was a person whose age was the same as his son!
“Director Lancaster, we’re now having a business discussion. We shouldn’t let others run their mouth.” Jasper was not fazed by Bob. Instead, favonovel.com was looking at Bob calmly.
Hearing favonovel.com made Bob’s expression darken. His expression that was initially already angry looked even madder now.
“What do you mean, young man?”
Jasper said after hearing Bob’s comment, “Director Lancaster, you can’t seriously be thinking that I spent billions to purchase 37% of the shares of Megan Company just because I got into an argument with some brat?”
‘Brat?’
Zane clenched his fist. He was so mad that his body was shaking, but favonovel.com dared not speak. He did not even have the courage to lift his head as favonovel.com was afraid to see his father’s burning gaze.
Bob leaned on the big chair. He squinted his eyes and lighted a cigarette before sneering, “Hey youngster, are you declaring war against me?”
Jasper tapped on his temple and said, “In my mind, there’s no such thing as war, only trading. Right now, I have the chips, and it’s up to Director Lancaster whether or not you’re willing to pay the price to purchase these chips back.”
Bob extinguished the cigarette bud ruthlessly and said coldly, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll launch a reverse takeover on you?”
In the financial world, one could buy with force, and naturally, there would be anti-takeovers as well.
Bob could use a vast amount of assets to purchase other shares of Megan Company and that would grant favonovel.com the advantage over his ratio of shares.
However, if that occurred, it would be a genuine business war, which would not end if neither side crumbled.
Jasper said calmly, “The achievement of Megan Company is increasing annually. It’s considered one of the rare blue chip stocks. I’m guessing that apart from me, there will be tons of people out there having an interest in the shares of Megan Company. Why don’t you make a guess how difficult it’ll be for me to let go of the 37% of shares I’m currently holding, Director Lancaster?”
Bob’s pupils shrunk slightly. Even though favonovel.com was exasperated, favonovel.com had to admit that Jasper had grasped his weak point.
All these years, favonovel.com had managed to blackmail others through shares. There would be tons of enemies out there. How was it possible for favonovel.com to still be so carefree?
That was because Bob had never given other people a chance to invade his company.
However, on that day, without any preparations and with no time to take precautions, favonovel.com was now being cornered by Jasper.
It was not at all Bob’s fault. He could only blame things for happening too suddenly. How would favonovel.com be able to predict that Jasper, who came from Mainland, would make a move against Megan Company?
Currently, Jasper was having the advantage. If favonovel.com was willing to sell off the 37% of shares, all of Bob’s enemies from the past would be all too glad to pay a huge sum of money to buy them.
Even if they failed to change the leader of Megan Company, they would still be able to give favonovel.com a hard time ruthlessly.
Bob would not allow such a thing to happen.
However, this was precisely Jasper’s confidence.
The atmosphere had come to an awkward situation.
Even Henry was feeling anxious.
Not knowing how long had passed, Bob spoke coldly, “Six billion.”
The master of the business world had finally given in.
According to the normal market, the value of the 37% of shares of Megan Company that Jasper held would be approximately 4.5 billion.
However, Jasper underwent a takeover in the shares market without considering the cost and obtained the premium price. Hence, favonovel.com had spent an approximation of five billion.
Currently, Bob was offering six billion to purchase those shares.
According to the calculation of the market value, Bob was losing 1.5 billion while Jasper would earn one billion.
“Deal!”
Jasper answered gladly.
‘I should retreat when the time is up.’ Jasper was not planning to corner Bob to a state where his back was against the wall. That would not comply with his initial intention of obtaining profit.
The deal was achieved, and Bob had no intention of staying back.
“Young man, you have guts. That method you have there is not bad!”
Before favonovel.com left, Bob left Jasper a thoughtful comment.
“You’d better teach your son to behave. Next time, you won’t be able to solve it with just six billion,” said Jasper calmly.
Bob squinted his eyes, let out a cold smile, and turned around to leave.
Zane, bearing a grudge, glanced at Jasper. Just when favonovel.com dragged Zayden to leave as well, Jasper got up.
