Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1047
When Wesley, who was at the side heard that, he inwardly snickered. Hah! Your acting is quite convincing, you old fox! If I hadn’t known the truth beforehand, even I would’ve probably been taken in by you!
As Fabian took the contract from Terry, he saw the clause indicated by Terry’s index finger: In the event that Party A is unable to make payment, the guarantor will bear the responsibility of paying it in full. This clause was concealed at an exceedingly inconspicuous spot amidst the few pages of the contract, thus very much difficult to spot.
After glancing through the contract, Fabian murmured with a worried expression, “As you know, Mr. Ziegler, I’m collaborating with Mr. Xenakis’ company on this project, so I’m afraid that I can’t make an arbitrary decision.”
Grasping the meaning of his words, Terry passed Wesley another copy of the contract. He deliberately tapped on the price with his index finger before winking at Wesley. Then, he exclaimed, “Look, Mr. Xenakis. Although the price is exorbitant, this place is a gem and has immense appreciation potential. I’m sure you’re well aware of this, so why don’t you make a decision?”
As Wesley gazed in the direction of his finger, he was greeted by a shocking figure. He then inwardly counted, Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions, tens of millions, and hundreds of millions! Two hundred and fifty millions! He actually doubled the price of the land!
Wesley’s eyes blazed as utter delight swamped him. Haha, this is simply amazing! While he’s really ruthless to jack it up this much, I’ll be making a tidy sum as well. Since Fabian Norton has agreed to give me money for nothing, why should I decline?
Nonetheless, he intentionally feigned a dour expression as he replied, “The price is rather high, Mr. Norton. However, as mentioned by Mr. Ziegler, the appreciation potential is self-evident, so I think it’s still workable.”
Upon hearing this, Fabian couldn’t help sneering inwardly. Hah! Do you think you’ve gotten a lunch? You think I’m an idiot, huh? Don’t come crying to me if something happens later!
He hesitated for a while before concurring, “Since Mr. Xenakis thinks it’s okay, it’s decided then.”
