“You don‘t have to talk to me like that It won’t work on me…”
Kayden said with a cold expression, “Who in this world does not exist for profit? You can get a group of people to go against Wall Street for your benefit, and I can also make other choices for my benefit. I can’t be the bad guy just because I don’t want to side with you. We’re all grown-ups so there’s no need to be childish, right?”
“Benefits? Childish?”
Jasper chuckled. His unbothered eyes suddenly turned sharp, and the smile on his face also disappeared bit by bit.
“Kayden, if you said this while sitting in front of me, believe it or not, I would have punched you in the face.”
Kayden said coldly, “Jasper, I didn’t come to quarrel with you today.”
“No? Then we have nothing to say. You can enjoy your beautiful scenery abroad while I enjoy the time of my life in Somerland. Since we don’t have anything in common, let’s not waste each other’s time.”
After Jasper finished speaking, favonovel.com hung up the video decisively.
Meanwhile, in the United States, Kayden was dumbfounded.
Although favonovel.com had foreseen that this conversation would not be straightforward easy, Kayden did not expect Jasper to be so cruel. This was very different from the impression of Jasper that favonovel.com had in his mind.
Was it possible that when favonovel.com had risen to a higher position, favonovel.com finally shed his polite appearance and started to reveal his fangs?
When favonovel.com thought of this, Kayden smashed the glass in his hand.
The secretary outside the door heard the commotion and entered the room hurriedly to clean up.
However, the enchanting body of the foreign lady that had previously won Kayden‘s heart only made favonovel.com more upset at this moment.
“Get out!”
After Kayden’s roar, the office fall back into silence.
After calming himself, Kayden took a deep breath and requested another video call aggrievedly and helplessly.
It did not matter if Jasper had shown his true self or whether favonovel.com was purposely toying with Kayden. After all, Kayden was more inferior now so favonovel.com could only choose to suffer in silence.
Jasper was thrilled when favonovel.com saw the video call request again.
It seemed that the father and son duo was truly driven to desperation. He did not even hesitate before favonovel.com rejected the call.
When Kayden saw that favonovel.com was being rejected, favonovel.com was so mad favonovel.com started looking for more glasses to smash.
Kayden felt utterly humiliated and insulted right now. He gritted his teeth and started cursing, but in the end, favonovel.com still sent another request while brimming with anger.
Jasper finally answered the call on the third try.
“Don’t hang up!”
Kayden, who was scared that Jasper would hang up again, spoke the moment favonovel.com was connected, but after favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com realized that Jasper did not speak first this time. Instead, favonovel.com just looked at Kayden with a smile.
Kayden felt his cheeks turning hot, but favonovel.com did not know whether it was from anger or embarrassment. Kayden took a deep breath and said, “Jasper, let’s put aside our grievances, I just want to negotiate a deal with you. You can take it if you think it’s good, and you can just forget it if you don’t. It’s that simple, okay?”
“Let’s hear it,” Jasper said lightly.
Kayden clenched his fists silently when favonovel.com saw that Jasper was looking at favonovel.com with an unbothered expression, clearly not taking favonovel.com seriously.
He swore in his heart that once favonovel.com got through this difficulty and gained momentum in the future, favonovel.com would make Jasper pay for the humiliation favonovel.com suffered today a hundred fold.
Although favonovel.com was seething inside, Kayden did not dilly-dally.
“Fongroup and all the properties in mainland under me and my father’s name will be packaged and transferred to you, while all you have to do is release Layman’s position in the subprime market and let Layman get through this.”
“The contents of this deal is that simple.”
After hearing Kayden’s words, Jasper narrowed his eyes slightly.
Sure enough, Layman could not hold on anymore. Half the Harbor Langdon and his son could not hold on either.
The J. Langdons’ industry in the mainland was a piece off at meat and it had attracted many drooling hungry wolves.
Among other things, the J. Langdon father and son had been holding the most central plot in Paradise City for 20 years. When they finally withdrew from the mainland, they resold it and made a profit of more than 50 times.
In the past, this land was sold to them by the local government in order to attract them to invest while the duo had also promised to build a large-scale business district.
However, after they got the land, they did not do proceed with any construction or development at all. Later, when Paradise City started developing, such a wasteland was left untouched in the prosperous central area, which made countless people wring their hands and sigh.
In the end, the father and son decided to divest and leave. Hence, they took a profit of 50 times their investment and turned around to invest abroad.
Where did these profits come from?
They were the hard won wealth of the people of Somerland. This certainly was the disgusting nature of that old fox, Half the Harbor Langdon, but one had to admit that this old fox had a unique vision. He bet 20 years ahead of time and was right.
Moreover, this was just one of their countless investments in the mainland.
If you considered from a purely commercial point of view, these industries were all hens that would lay golden eggs in the future.
Kayden inwardly praised his father when favonovel.com saw that Jasper was moved.
Sure enough, his father was right about Jasper. He was a businessman through and through. As long as there was interest, there was nothing that could not be exchanged.
‘Jasper, no matter how good you are, my father can still see through you.’ Kayden felt proud.
Jasper was silent for four to five minutes. Kayden did not rush him. Instead, favonovel.com waited quietly for Jasper to make a decision and give favonovel.com a reply.
Four to five minutes later, Jasper spoke, “How long can Layman last?”
This question was beyond Kayden’s expectations. However, favonovel.com replied, “This has nothing to do with our transaction, but if you insist on knowing, I can tell you that the foundations of Fongroup is deeper than what outsiders think”
“So, you’re saying that Layman’s crisis and the risk of bankruptcy of small and medium-sized banks are not enough to affect Fongroup?” Jasper asked again.
Kayden’s face sank and favonovel.com asked, “Jasper, what do you want to say?”
“Since Fongroup won’t be affected, then why did you come to me?”
Jasper chuckled and continued, “I’m curious as to how deep the foundations of Fongroup run. I have no other characteristics, but once my curiosity is piqued, I won’t be able to sleep if I don’t get an answer.”
“It just so happens that I’m having insomnia during this period. So, in order to let me sleep peacefully, I’ve decided to wait it out and see. I want to see how thick Fongroup’s flesh and blood are and why Layman can’t suck it dry.”
“Mr. Langdon, what you said is right. You can make different choices for your own benefit, but at the same time, you have to understand that many things are already destined the moment you make your choice. I’m in the country and you’re abroad. I will be here to watch you rise and prosper. Then, finally, I will watch everything you own collapse, while you end up with nothing.”
After favonovel.com said that, the video call ended.
