Chapter 190
Wish fulfilled?
With a face pink due to the alcohol, Yaser chuckled at Alexander, thinking he was just joking. “Stop teasing me, Alex! | know you care a lot about Coral. Don’t worry. Even if my family doesn’t open up the market in South Yarica, we'll still have profit from business in the country. | promise Coral won't suffer at all.”
Alexander merely smiled.
Three minutes later, Alexander’s phone buzzed. It was a long-distance phone call.
“I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Your Lordship.” A rather hoarse voice rang out. “My translator wasn’t with me, so it took some time to read your message. | understand what you mean. Is one billion enough? If it isn’t, we'll let all the dozen countries of armies in South Yarica have the same uniform.”
One billion?
Alexander covered his phone and smiled at Yaser. “Yaser, how big is your family’s business? Is one hundred and fifty million worth of business enough?”
Yaser almost spat his drink out as he stared at Alexander in bewilderment. His family’s factory production value was not that much. An order of 150 million dollars would take at least 5 years to complete!
“Are you joking, Alex?” Yaser roughly told him about his family’s situation. He stuttered, “O...One hundred and fifty million? Are you for real?”
Alexander gently waved, asking Yaser to be quiet. Then, he said with a smile on his phone, “Randy, one hundred and fifty million it is. Sign a five-year contract. Do it tonight. I'll wait for your news.”
Then, he hung up.

“A-Alex, did you just...” Yaser looked at Alexander and finally came to his senses. “Are you really going to give my family orders worth one hundred and fifty million dollars?” he asked shakily “Who is Randy?”
“| landed him in prison once because he was asking for it,” answered Alexander casually with a smile. “Don’t worry. Just wait for the news. Randy works fast. Your phone will ring soon!”
There stood a three-story mansion in the city more than a thousand kilometers away from Ol’ Mare.
The rapid ringing of a phone woke a middle-aged man in alarm.
“An international call?” The middle-aged man rubbed his eyes and furrowed his brow. He pondered for a while before picking his phone up.
“Good evening, Mister Gabrick,” a melodious young lady’s voice rang out. “We're from the L’‘Amour Group in South Yarica. I’m the company’s official interpreter. Upon the friend of your son’s invitation, we’re here to establish a partnership with you. In five years, we'll purchase one hundred and fifty million dollars worth of

After exchanging some pleasantries, she hung up.
“South Yarica? L’Amour Group?”
The middle-aged man was Harrison Gabrick, owner of Gabrick’s Garment Trading. The call left him bewildered.
He sat on the bed in a daze for a long time. He switched on his laptop and searched around for a few minutes. Upon finding what he needed, his eyes lit up.
L'Amour Group was the biggest group in South Yarica. They were extremely powerful. They would never work with any ordinary company. They were the leading group among all the countries in South Yarica.
“Wait a second!” Harrison was stunned. What did the interpreter say on the phone a moment ago?
His son? Yaser?
“Yaser!” Harrison dialed Yaser’s phone. “What the hell are you doing? A lady just called me through a long- distance call and said she’s from L'Amour Group in South Yarica. They said they want to partner with us. They
said it was your friend’s doing! Is this a prank from your weird girlfriend or something?”
Back in Neon Midnight...
Yaser was stunned for quite a while. He grabbed his phone tightly and said excitedly, “Dad, are you for real? L'Amour Group wants to work with us?”All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
“What? You didn’t know?” Harrison was even more suspicious. “An interpreter representing the company told me about this. They said that your friend told them to do it. A one-hundred-and-fifty-million-dollar order. | was just thinking about it. One hundred and fifty million dollars... This is exactly the limit our factory could churn out in a year. This is too much of a coincidence!
“Only both of us know about our factory’s production limits. Even your mother and your brother don’t know about it. Forget about this! This is a prank! You should stay out of it!”
He was about to hang up when Yaser yelled, “Dad, hold up!”
Yaser looked at the smiling Alexander. His heart was pounding wildly, his face flushed with excitement. “Dad, | just made a new friend. No, not a friend. He’s Coral’s cousin-in-law! He just called his friend and said this will be a gift to us. He called his friend and made it happen! This isn’t a prank! This is real!”
