In the dim study, Conrad stood quietly at his desk. Fabian sat across from favonovel.com and said nothing.
Fabian had been silent throughout the more than ten minutes since Conrad was called into the office.
There were several documents in front of him. Fabian’s gaze was focused on the documents as if favonovel.com was making a major decision. His face changed with uncertainty from time to time.
“Look at this.”
Fabian finally broke the silence and threw a document toward Conrad.
Conrad took the document and looked at it, and his face changed.
Surprisingly, this document contained the breakdown of losses Fabian’s funds suffered over the past few days.
Conrad had long known of Fabian‘s losses, but when favonovel.com looked at the shocking numbers in black and white, favonovel.com could not help but feel shocked.
“The total invested capital is 3.2 billion US Dollars. The current holdings are 1.1 billion US Dollars, and the loss is 2.1 billion US Dollars. It is estimated that over the next three days, we will continue to lose 700 million US Dollars, with the total loss ratio predicted to be as high as 90%.”
This scalp-numbing information was conveyed in just a few sentences.
“What you’re looking at is the situation I’m in.”
Fabian looked up at Conrad blankly and continued, “In other words, if we hadn’t raised funds from the members of Empire Meet before, we would be broke by now.”
“The previous investment of more than one billion US Dollars and more than 10 billion Harbor Dollars are all gone.”
After taking a deep breath, Conrad said, “Mr. Atticus, after the release of the first phase of the market rescue in the US, a lot of members have already asked about the profitability of the funds.”
“Make a report to them and say that the current expected loss is 10%,” Fabian said with no expression on his face.
Conrad said with a frown, “Mr. Atticus, it’s easy to make a fake report, but I’m afraid it won’t withstand an investigation.”
Indeed, the members of Empire Meet were not fools, and they all had channels and resources backing them up.
At present, the funds had been invested, and it would be fine if they did not release a statement yet, but once they did, these members could verify the authenticity after launching a small investigation.
After all, the market transaction data was there, and no one could steal it or fake it.
“I will promise them 30% of the final profit. As for the authenticity, does it matter?” Fabian sneered and said confidently.
Conrad shrugged upon hearing this.
Indeed, what if someone realized that Fabian was faking it?
As long as Fabian was shameless, no one would dare to risk their lives to expose him. Fabian was too powerful. At least within Empire Meet, no one would dare to challenge Fabian’s authority. Conrad, who had always represented Fabian in handling the affairs of Empire Meet, had the most say.
“Don’t worry about the matters at Empire Meet for now, I will arrange for someone else to take your place,” Fabian said suddenly.
Conrad did not have the slightest expression on his face, but his heart skipped a beat.
He thought of the old man in disguise that Fabian had arranged to monitor favonovel.com back then. It was just surveillance last time, but this time, favonovel.com had straightforwardly let Conrad go.
Could Fabian have discovered something? The thought made Conrad very nervous.
He knew what Fabian was like. This was Harbor City, and favonovel.com was not Jasper.
If Fabian found out that favonovel.com was secretly colluding with Jasper, Fabian might really try to drown favonovel.com in the ocean.
Meanwhile, his family’s power in the Southeast Province was nothing to Fabian’s.
“Tomorrow, I will fight Jasper, but at the same time, I need to visit an important figure. I can’t go there myself, so I can only let you go and leave on the very same night, ” Fabian said suddenly.
These words made Conrad breathe a sigh of relief.
