Chapter 972

lan sat nonchalantly at the head of the table, his fingers tapping lightly against the surface.

A minute later, he finally spoke.

“Dennis,” he began, “you’ve mortgaged all your properties and liquidated all your assets to buy a 20% share from Mr. Haley. You’ve even borrowed from the bank. Now, how do you plan to pay it back?”

His eyes were filled with amusement as he glanced at the other members of the Raymond family.

The crowd that had been so boisterous just moments ago were now, one by one, shrinking back, avoiding his gaze.

Despite his seemingly casual look, to them, it felt as if he was brandishing a razor–sharp blade, the chilling coldness almost freezing them solid.

The room was filled with tense expressions. They all glanced uneasily at each other, none daring to refute lan’s words.

“No way! Absolutely no way! lah, you must have played dirty!”

Dennis, who had been meticulously planning for years, was on the verge of success when he was suddenly plunged into a hellish abyss. He simply could not accept it.

lan, however, had no intention of indulging him, or anyone else for that matter.

“Dennis, the only thing you have left now is the 20% share you just bought. Now, you have two choices – sell these shares to me at half the market price, which will allow you to pay off your debt to the bank, or I’ll crash the stock value of the Raymond Corporation, making your shares worthless. Either way, it’s just a game to

me.”

The second option was insane, but everyone in the room believed lan would dare to do it.

Although it seemed like he was giving Dennis options, in reality, he was driving him into a corner.

Dennis had obtained his 20% share by mortgaging his own 30% share and paying twice the market price. Now, lan wanted him to sell it for half the market price. The sheer loss would be in the billions.

He was left penniless, without any properties to his name…

“Ugh!” Dennis vomited blood on the spot and nearly fainted.

Upon seeing the bloodstain on the floor, lan’s brow furrowed. Mr. Haley immediately spoke up..

“Mr. Raymond is a clean freak, and you should’ve found somewhere else to vomit blood.”

His words were the final blow, causing Dennis to faint on the spot.

Pearson hurriedly helped him up, but he didn’t dare to look atlan..
