Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 570

But even so, these two are still not enough to tackle Chase Bank head on.

Caleb stood up. “Eclipse and Hades, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect to meet you here,” he politely greeted.

Both the elderly men stared at him in shock. “Oh, Mr. Nolan. You’re here. It is indeed a coincidence.”

“Have a seat. Are you also friends with young Williams here?”

Caleb smiled. “More like a business partner. I was just discussing business matters with him.”

“Is that so? Hearing you say that reminded me to talk about business with you too,” Hades replied.

“Thank you for seeing me worthy to talk business with you, Hades. May I know what kind of business would you like to talk to me about?” Caleb asked with a smile.

“It’s actually not that big of a deal. As far as I know, the money that I saved for my emergency funds in your bank is thirty billion. If not, then it at least should be more than twenty billion,” Hades replied.

“I’m in a rush for money. So I need your help to withdraw every single penny from that account today.”

“Don’t worry. Your hard work will be rewarded.”

Caleb frowned deeply.

Withdrawing more than twenty billion at once will cause tremendous losses to the bank.

Why did he choose to withdraw the money today out of all days? Something’s fishy here.

He stole a glance at Zeke and found the latter scrolling through his phone in a bored manner, seemingly unconcerned about what was going on right now.

“Hades, may I know what the money is for?” Caleb asked in a low voice.

“You’re our biggest client and if you need our help, we will spare no effort in helping you.”

“If it’s not necessary, don’t withdraw all the money at once.”

Hades feigned anxiousness. “What do you mean by this, Mr. Nolan?”

“Is the bank in some kind of difficulty that withdrawing money is hard?”

Caleb smiled bitterly. “Even if a company has strong wealth. Withdrawing more than twenty billion at once will definitely affect the company’s capital turnover.”

“Of course, if you insist, we’ll try our best to fulfil your request even if it’s difficult for us today.”

Hades nodded. “Oh. It’s actually not really that important.”

“It’s because young Zeke here owes someone and I’m withdrawing my money to lend it to him so that he can repay them.”

Realization dawned on Caleb and he understood everything now.

Turns out Williams is really smart.

He isn’t using Hades’s power to put pressure on me, but his money.

If Hades withdraws more than twenty billion today, Chase Bank will surely lose more than that.

If I don’t force Zeke to pay the debts, not only will Hades not withdraw the money, but I can also ask Jacob for the two billion loan. With that, we will not lose a single dime.

Almost instantly, Caleb made a decision.

It was only natural that he would choose the latter option.

Even though it would be detrimental to Jacob’s interests. But what is brotherhood in the face of absolute interest? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Caleb beamed. “How foolish of me to have made this a big problem when it’s not.”

“Mr. Williams, I won’t force you to pay the loan anymore. Then, does that mean you no longer have the need to withdraw the money, Hades?”

The latter nodded. “If young Zeke here has no need to use the money, then it’s obvious I won’t withdraw.”

“Okay, then. I won’t bother you about the loan anymore, Mr. Williams,” Caleb uttered.

“It’s not a big deal, I’ll ask Jacob to pay for it instead.”

Zeke suddenly waved his hand. “Is it okay to do that? A two billion loan isn’t just something that can be done away like that just because you say so. Wouldn’t it bring harm to your interests?”

“Mr. Nolan, the loan should be repaid, and it should be done uprightly and legally.”

“Mr. Williams, what do you mean with that?” Caleb frowned.
