Lord Protector Novel

“Damn. I knew we couldn’t fool you.”

“But you’re in our trap now. There’s no other way to escape other than transferring the equity.”

“Your Linton Group is only valued at three billion. Unless you mortgage your entire company to Caleb.”

“Which one is more important? Half the shares of Reagan Pharmaceutical or Linton Group? You be the judge.”

Zeke inhaled deeply. “Jacob, you’re really making a hell lot of effort just to deal with me.”

“Do you know that you’ve successfully angered me? Now, I’ll give you a chance to compensate for your fault. Bear the 2.5 billion loan by yourself. Or else, you’ll regret the day you were born.”

“F**k you! You’re stubborn as hell! Let’s see how long you’ll last then!” Jacob cursed.

“Huh. Seems like you don’t cherish the chance I gave you, guess I have no other choice then,” Zeke replied.

Beep!

He ended the call.

Caleb stared at him with a malicious smile on his face. “Mr. Williams, how are you going to repay the loan?”

“Look for Jacob if you want the loan repaid. He’ll give you the money,” Zeke replied.

“Mr. Williams, don’t mess with me,” Caleb uttered with a tone laced with displeasure.

“You’re the major shareholder of the company and I have to ask it from you according to the rules. Besides, Jacob clearly stated on the phone that he will not bear the debt.”

“How would you know when you haven’t even tried?” Zeke shot back.

Caleb finally lost his cool and his temper shot through the roof. “Mr. Williams, are you testing my patience?”

“I know you have some influence in Oakheart City. But that minuscule influence you have isn’t even worth mentioning in Chase Bank.”

“Even Hades, the one who controls Rivermouth, has to pay respect to Chase Bank. So I don’t know where you got the audacity to fall back on the bank’s bills!”

The atmosphere in the office instantly became tensed.

Susan’s face was pale with fear clearly written on it.

Now that everything had reached a deadlock. Even if Zeke repaid the loan, he probably already offended Chase Bank.

That bank was the most powerful bank in the entire north. They really couldn’t afford to provoke them.

What should I do?

This is all because of Mr. Williams’ recklessness.

Susan was at a loss as she didn’t know what she should do.

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

Zeke faintly smiled at her. “Susan, go open the door.”

The woman was full of hard feelings. How is he still smiling at a time like this?

She stomped towards the door, the moment she opened it, she saw two elderly men that was exuding a unique vibe standing outside.

The two men were none other than the rulers of the underground world of Rivermouth, Hades and Eclipse.
