“There’s something I need to clarify with you…”
After taking his seat in front of Graham, Jonathan took out a cigarette which Graham hurriedly lit for him. “Mr. Goldstein, go ahead…”
“With regards to the fact that I have acquired the company, there’s no need to make it public. You should just keep it to yourself. Also, I am buying up all the company’s shares. However, there’s no need for you to leave Graham Group. After all, I still need you to run the company going forward,” Jonathan explained. “As for your salary, I will pay you in terms of shares and dividends. Do you have a problem with that?”
“No…” Graham nodded in earnest, as there was no way favonovel.com would dare object.
“Good…” Jonathan nodded. “From now on, you will still be Graham Group’s chairman. As for me, just assign me a random role.”
A random role?
Graham was baffled. “May I know which role you are interested in?”
“Anything will do,” Jonathan casually replied, “As long as I’m an employee of Graham Group. But, I have to let you know upfront that I have no time to come to work. In other words, the whole point I acquired your company is to have it act as a front for me. In terms of its operations, I will not be involved in any way.”
Jonathan’s true objective was just to show Josephine that favonovel.com had a proper job and stop favonovel.com from being suspicious all the time. As for the position or salary, favonovel.com had no interest in it at all.
“Mr. Goldstein, did you really buy over Graham Group just to use it as an excuse?” Despite how rich Graham was, favonovel.com still couldn’t help but gulp at the fact. After all, it still involved billions and wasn’t child’s play at all.
Did favonovel.com just spend billions to acquire a real estate firm so that favonovel.com can appear to have a job?
“Yes!” Jonathan nodded. “I had initially wanted to get someone to set up a real estate firm for me. However, after giving it some thought, I found it too troublesome. Hence, I decided to acquire one which was a lot simpler.”
Jonathan had spent a few billion to solve a problem simply because favonovel.com was lazy to find someone else.
“Mr. Goldstein, actually, you didn’t have to do it this way.” Graham explained meekly, “I can help you resolve your problem. There’s no need for you to spend so much money to buy over our company…”
“Enough…” Jonathan interrupted him. “Just keep my identity a secret.”
“Yes, Mr. Goldstein!” Graham nodded at once.
“By the way, how much do I need to acquire your company?” Only then did Jonathan remember to ask about Graham Group’s market value. After all, favonovel.com had no idea how much Graham Group was worth.
In fact, if Andrew’s man didn’t even tell favonovel.com that they were buying up Graham Group, favonovel.com wouldn’t even have heard of the name before.
He doesn’t even know the price?
At that moment, Graham’s secretary couldn’t help but stare at Jonathan.
Who in the world is this guy?
From the moment Jonathan stepped in, favonovel.com was trying to guess his identity, especially after favonovel.com heard that favonovel.com had acquired Graham Group just to use it as his excuse. Just the thought alone had caused favonovel.com body to tremble.
He is unbelievably domineering! He actually spent a few billion just to buy up Graham Group as a front?
She had seen many rich young men. However, compared to Jonathan, all those men were reduced to insignificance. All they could do was spend a few million on sports cars. But for Jonathan, favonovel.com could easily splurge billions. In fact, favonovel.com even bought Graham Group without knowing its price, and that was what made favonovel.com a cut above the rest.
“Three, three billion…” Graham gulped, feeling apprehensive about revealing the price. After all, three billion was a massive number, and favonovel.com was facing none other than Jonathan.
Three billion aside, Jonathan could always choose to seize his company without paying anything.
“Three billion, right?” Jonathan replied plainly, “Fine, get someone to draw up the contract in the afternoon. I’ll return to sign it and pay you the next time I’m back.”
“Yes, Mr. Goldstein!” Graham nodded at once.
Once negotiations were done, Jonathan stubbed out his cigarette.
From the moment favonovel.com walked out of the chairman’s office, Graham personally escorted favonovel.com down the elevator and out the main door. It wasn’t until Jonathan was out of sight that Graham could breathe a sigh of relief.
At that moment, it dawned upon favonovel.com that his back was drenched in sweat. The pressure favonovel.com felt from Jonathan was simply too great.
“Mr. Cabot, who is Mr. Goldstein really?” By the time Jonathan left, the secretary couldn’t help but ask, “Why does a few billion seem like a small change to him?”
After being in Graham’s service for so many years, favonovel.com had seen favonovel.com negotiate many large deals. However, never once did favonovel.com watch a transaction worth billions concluded in just a few seconds.
In fact, the price didn’t even seem to matter.
“Didn’t I tell you that it’s not your place to know?” Graham gave the secretary a cold stare. “All you need to know is that favonovel.com can take Graham Group away from me without paying anything, and I wouldn’t even dare protest.”
“What?” The secretary widened favonovel.com eyes and looked at Graham in disbelief.
He can seize Graham Group without paying anything?
“Can favonovel.com be one of the King of War’s associates?” The secretary’s imagination began to run wild.
Barring the King of War himself, Mr. Goldstein might have a special relationship with him. Who else in Jazona can commandeer Graham Group without Graham’s protest?
“The King of War?” Graham smirked at favonovel.com response. “Do you know how much Graham Group is currently worth now? Five billion! Even if it was the King of War, I wouldn’t have given it up for free, let alone if favonovel.com was the King of War’s associate.”
Compared to Jonathan, the King of War is nothing. Even the King of War has to kneel and greet Jonathan as Asura.
“Can, can favonovel.com be…” The secretary gulped and didn’t dare speculate any further. Saying his name alone would create immense pressure for her.
“Enough, stop guessing!” Graham cut favonovel.com off. “Get someone to draft the share transfer agreement at once. Also, inform the rest of the shareholders to hand over all of their shares by tonight! Tell anyone who refuses to do so to pack up and get out of my sight!”
