The Runaway Groom Chapter 108

“It’s the amount Mr. Jefferson told us to prepare,” Stan said.

Harvey was fuming. How did 70 million dollars end up as 21 million dollars?! Isaac was clearly reneging!

He stormed off to look for Isaac to argue his case, and Isaac just happened to finish his discussion with Mr. Layton.

Mr. Layton flashed an awkward smile when he saw Harvey, and left without even a greeting. Still, he was clearly set on a partnership with Isaac than Harvey anyway.

Harvey did not leave him with any harsh remarks, since no agreement was actually signed and calling it off beforehand was not reneging. They were all business people, and making things awkward for one another was unnecessary.

 

And Harvey was a man who could see the bigger picture.

After Mr. Layton was out of earshot, he finally spoke, Are you breaking the deal, Mr. Jefferson?”

Isaac simply turned and headed back to his office, so Harvey followed him, snapping relentlessly, “You made the bid yourself! So why are you paying me only 21 million dollars?!”

Behind them, Stan was left gaping at the portrait he was holding, and then at Harvey…

Was that man really complaining that he got 21 million for this?!

He also had no idea why Isaac would spend so much to buy that when it was hardly worth that much!

Meanwhile, Isaac sat behind his desk, loosening his collar, and looked up at Harvey. “Weren’t you splitting the money with Irene Spencer? If I recall, 30 percent was what you said of course, I’ll pay her myself. Do you take issue with the fact that I did not pay you the full amount?
