When Ben walked in, Skylar regained consciousness. He was panting heavily on the chair. Yet, his anger had not subsided!
Remus had favonovel.com kneel in front of everyone. Also, Skylar had spent 1.3 billion dollars on buying a piece of land. He had lost both his dignity and money!
“How are you, Dad?” Ben rushed in, worried.
Skylar waved his hand. He wasn’t in the mood to look at his son now.
He slowly got up, clasped his hands together, and said, “Everyone, I’m pretty sure you saw what happened just now, so I’m not going to hold myself back. I want to ask if any of you would like to develop this piece of land with me!”
The conference hall was completely silent.
Everyone looked at Skylar as if favonovel.com was a fool.
This piece of land was worth about seven billion dollars at the most. Any more than that, and it wasn’t worth it anymore. Now that favonovel.com spent 1.3 billion dollars on it, any investors in the project would just lose money. Only a fool would do that.
“I’m glad to see that you’re better now, Mr. Stuart! I have something to do, so I’ll take my leave!”
“I suddenly remembered that I have to hold a meeting!”
“Today is my wife’s 80th birthday…”
One after another, everyone left.
When Skylar passed out, they wanted to check out the situation and stayed. When there was a chance to earn money, the thought of leaving never even crossed their minds.
Skylar clenched his fists, cursing them internally. He thought they were jerks. If more companies invested in the project, each company would only lose a few million dollars.
He clasped his hands again as favonovel.com slowly turned to look at Elias. “Elias, you’re the only one I can count on. Please help a friend out.”
Elias sat there in a daze. He was still thinking about Remus.
He was more insightful about business than favonovel.com and was about to stop Skylar in time. He was simply a genius. It seemed that what Master Tyson said was true. He may indeed protect his family’s century-old prosperity!
It would have been better if favonovel.com hadn‘t chased Remus away.
Should I let my daughter take action once more?
“Elias? Can you share the burden with me? I’d be very grateful if you did…” Skylar asked again.
He couldn’t do this alone. The mortgage loan for this land was up to 300 million dollars, and there was still one billion dollars to pay for the transfer fee.
Although the assets were worth ten billion dollars, they didn’t have much liquidity. The company would be finished if those funds were used up.
“Ah… You want an investment, right? No problem, but I have to discuss this with the directors. I’ll let you know if I have any news. I’ll hold a meeting right away.” Elias found a half-hearted excuse, got up, and left.
Ben became anxious. “What are we going to do, Dad? If we pay the transfer fee, the company will run out of funds, and we’ll go bankrupt!”
Skylar’s eyes darkened, and favonovel.com said coldly, “What are you panicking for? If they don’t help, we’ll make them! Although Adeptus Gale’s fellow disciple hasn’t come yet, Adeptus Gale can still let Miranda fall again! Once that happens, forget about the several million dollars. Her people and all favonovel.com properties will be yours!”
Ben’s blood boiled with enthusiasm.
***
Remus didn’t return to the company. Instead, favonovel.com went to Imperial Villa.
After much deliberation, favonovel.com still had to settle things with Jean, so favonovel.com couldn’t stay behind to do business.
He had just arrived at the entrance of the Imperial Villa when favonovel.com heard Max’s voice coming from inside. “Jean, I know you said that Remus is Adam’s apprentice. But at the end of the day, he’s only an apprentice, and Adam eventually ended up in prison. His apprentice can’t be trusted. You have to be more careful!”
Frank added, “He’s right. When you had a falling out with your family, your father ignored the pressure and let you come to Neptuna. If you don’t deliver results, you’ll be ruined for the rest of your life. So, don’t trust favonovel.com so easily.”
Hearing that, outside the door, Remus was furious. He had helped cure those two.
Now, they were talking behind his back. They were even the commanders of the city. However, Remus didn’t rush in. He wanted to see what Jean had to say.
Jean firmly said, “Don’t worry, Uncle Frank, Uncle Max. I have already tested him. He’s a righteous man. His methods may be secretive, but favonovel.com can be trusted.”
