“I understand, Jasper.”
The call ended here. Then, Julian chatted with Fidel and was honest with favonovel.com for the first time.
After Julian explained everything, Fidel’s choice remained the same. It never changed.
“Since I made the choice, I should persist till the end…”
Fidel ended the conversation with Julian calmly. He would not change what favonovel.com decided on from the start.
***
At this moment, Harbor City.
Half the Harbor Langdon came to a private restaurant, where Lord Alvarado and Henry had been waiting for a long time. A beautiful woman was sitting on the other side of the table, and this woman was Lorelai.
Lorelai saw that Jasper from yesterday did not show up at all, and instead, favonovel.com let Lord Alvarado and Henry take the lead today. She could easily figure out the reason.
When the people who were invited all arrived, Henry stood up and said, “Let me introduce you. This is Ms. Lorelai Bigelow from Sangtel.
“This is Old Master Langdon, and I’m sure you know him, Ms. Bigelow. He’s the second share-holder of the Harbor City telecommunication investment project!”
“Ms. Bigelow’s demeanor is so refreshing!” Half the Harbor Langdon said with his signature smile.
“You’re too kind. Please take a seat,” Lorelai said politely.
After Half the Harbor Langdon sat down and had something to eat, Lord Alvarado went straight to the topic.
“Sangtel’s 3G technology will be developed soon. They saw our recent efforts and have regarded Harbor City as the first pilot area of 3G technology…”
When Lord Alvarado spoke about the novel 3G technology, Lorelai kept smiling and did not refute it. This was also a very important signal for Half the Harbor Langdon.
“It’s just that we have encountered a big problem with our funds. Sangtel is only responsible for providing technology, and we have to take care of the funding problems ourselves,” Lord Alvarado directly explained the problem.
He went straight to the point, and there was no nonsense at all. It was useless to play tricks on someone like Half the Harbor Langdon who had gone through countless ups and downs in the market. If they explained the problem directly, the chance of being exposed would be smaller.
“Then… How much additional funding is needed?” Half the Harbor Langdon said with an unchanging expression.
There were no emotions in his eyes.
“Perhaps this much…” Lord Alvarado slowly stretched out a finger and said flatly, “One hundred billion…”
Half the Harbor Langdon did not show any emotion, but favonovel.com was doing the math in his heart.
Obviously, if an additional 100 billion was needed, favonovel.com would need to come up with tens of billions in cash, which was not a small amount for favonovel.com and the Atticus family. Having said this, Half the Harbor Langdon did not come here just to eat. After all, there were more important things than eating right now.
Half the Harbor Langdon then said, “Ms. Bigelow, young men, today it seems that I can’t continue eating anymore. Let me go back and think about it…”
“Have a safe journey, Old Master Langdon!” Lord Alvarado said respectfully.
He was not being overly courteous. After all, the purpose of today’s dinner had been achieved, and if favonovel.com kept talking, their plan might be exposed. Everyone also stood up to greet each other.
After Half the Harbor Langdon left, Lord Alvarado let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Jasper walked into the room slowly. “Ms. Bigelow, thank you for not exposing us just now.”
Lorelai was stunned after favonovel.com heard that. “Why would I? It’s better to just watch…”
