Chapter 571
“Hasn’t Jacob always wanted to be the major shareholder of the company that he’s even willing to bear the debt? I’ll fulfil his wishes then,” Zeke said. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
After that, Zeke leaned towards Caleb and told him his plan.
A broad smile etched itself on Caleb’s face after listening to what he said “A great man has to be ruthless, after all. You’ve expanded my horizons today, Mr. Williams.”
“Consider me flattered,” Zeke responded.
At this time, Susan brought in the freshly brewed tea and poured it for Eclipse and Hades.
“Gentlemen, please enjoy the tea. Mr. Nolan and I have some matters to attend to. I’m afraid you’ll have to excuse us for a moment.” Zeke smiled.
Hades nodded while laughing. “You go ahead then.”
“Susan, come with me.” Zeke glanced at her.
“Okay,” she answered.
After they left, Eclipse and Hades took a sip of the tea.
Hades was torn between laughter and tears. “We’ve exchanged over twenty billion for this ordinary tea. It’s such a huge loss.”
Eclipse shook his head. “I don’t think so.”
“What makes you say that?” Hades asked.
“Zeke now owes us a favor. Isn’t his favor worth more than twenty billion?” Eclipse explained.
Hades laughed heartily. “Ah, I never thought about it that way. I guess it’s our win then.”
In the meantime, Zeke and Susan drove a car, while Caleb drove his own car. They were heading towards Reagan Pharmaceutical.
While they were on their way, Susan couldn’t help but ask in a diminished voice, “Mr. Williams, where are we going?”
“Reagan Pharmaceutical,” he simply replied.
“But the company doesn’t have money to pay for your debt anymore. Why are you still going there?” she complained.
“Jacob has always wanted to be the big boss and he’s even willing to undertake this debt.”
“Since he’s so adamant about it, I’ll hand over my shares to him and let him be the big boss then.”
Susan sighed repeatedly as she felt lost.
In the end, he still lost to Jacob and gave up his shares to him. I never thought that he also has his moment of injudicious.
Meanwhile, Jacob was hosting the ‘celebration feast’ in the Star Hotel near Reagan Pharmaceutical.
When he learned that Zeke was willing to transfer his shares to him, he was elated.
He raised his glass. “Gentlemen, let’s cheers to the meteoric rise in our career.”
The representatives of the suppliers and distributors stood up to toast and downed the wine in one go.
After gulping down that glass of wine, their faces were flushed as they complimented Jacob.
“Mr. Hugh, your plan is too wonderful for words. I can totally imagine Zeke’s face when Caleb forced him into a tight spot.”
“I bet he must be rushing here now, crying to give you his equity.”
“Look out the window! Isn’t that Zeke’s tattered Santana?”
“Haha! It is! Who would’ve thought the great Williams would come to beg for mercy so soon? He’s such a wimp!”
Jacob stubbed out the cigarette in his hand with a cold expression. “Hmph! You’re unskilled compared to me!”
Soon, Zeke, Susan, and Caleb entered the room.
Jacob faked a smile and looked at Zeke. “Mr. Williams, I don’t recall inviting you to my feast. What are you doing here?”
Zeke wasn’t in the mood to beat around the bush, so he went straight to the point. “Earlier you said that if I transferred my equity to you, you’ll bear the loan from Chase Bank, is that correct?”
“Mr. Williams, don’t you have some remarkable abilities that you can use to turn the tide in your favor? Don’t tell me that you’ve become this miserable just because of such a small amount of loan?” Jacob mocked.
His comment made everyone roared with laughter.
Zeke merely took out the contract and threw it on the table. “Let’s stop wasting time.”
“This is the transferal agreement. Sign it if you want. But it’s fine if you don’t. I can still repay the loan even if I have to sacrifice everything.”
Jacob laughed even more rampantly. “You don’t have to do that. I’ll help you with this small matter to save you from wandering around the streets should you lose everything.”
He took the transferal agreement and scanned through it a few times. Then he signed his name on it after making sure that there was no problem.
Susan was deeply upset.
The equity that they struggled to fight for was gone just like that.
This is all Mr. Williams’s fault for being arrogant and over-confident.
