A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 

Elena could tell the great Samuel had given in. 

Samuel knew nothing good would come out of it if he 

kept fighting Emmanuel. Hence, he wanted to find an 

excuse to give in. 

1/7 

In other words, Samuel was just a paper tiger. As the 

saying went, the more one owned, the greater the fear 

of losing everything. They were no longer the same 

person when they had nothing. 

Emmanuel, on the other hand, was giving everything 

he had because he had nowhere to turn to. 

He was no fool, either. He quickly questioned without 

hesitation, “So, what do you want to do, Mr. Webber?” 

Sheldon was currently trembling with excitement. 

It looks like this matter can really be resolved. 

To him, the sense of accomplishment was better than 

getting the commission. He had no regrets about 

risking his life to come here with Emmanuel that day. 

After all, he could return and boast about dealing with 

such an important event for half of his lifetime. 

“We’re not occupying this land by force. We just want 

to take back our friends‘ hard–earned money. As long 

as Terence Group is willing to pay the wages owed by 

the previous owner, I swear to tell them to leave.” 

Samuel was great with his words, too. 

Knowing all the other party wanted was money, 

Emmanuel asked impassively, “How much?” 

Samuel responded boldly, “Five million.” 

Emmanuel instantly burst out laughing. “Do you think 

I’m stupid? What kind of salary costs five million? Did 

you think I didn’t know only about ten people are 

ex–employees of the factory while the others are just 

unemployed hooligans? Their salary combined is only 

about a hundred thousand per month. What you’re 

asking for is about five years‘ worth of salary. Are they 

fools? Why continue working for a boss who owes 

them five years‘ worth of salary?” 

The data eluded Samuel from words. He would have 

killed Emmanuel if not for his fear of losing to the latter. 

“Are you saying you’re refusing to pay and want us to 

leave?” 

“Hold on. Let me ask the boss.” 

No matter how fierce Samuel was, Emmanuel would 

3/7 

not give in so easily. 

If one did not know better, one would easily mistake 

Emmanuel for bullying the group of people. 

Samuel looked so grim, as if he could lose his temper 

at any time. The sight of that made Elena shudder. 

After all, a man with hundreds of subordinates was 

being suppressed by one man. 

Meanwhile, Emmanuel gave Mackenzie a call. 

She was rushing over when she heard her phone ring. 

Seeing it was a call from Emmanuel, she felt oddly 

relieved. 

He’s still alive. 

Even so, she answered it nervously, worried Emmanuel 

was calling for help. 

The moment she heard Emmanuel’s words, her eyes 

widened in surprise. “What? Mr. Webber only needs five 

million to leave?” 

That amount was nothing to Terence Group as 

compared to the profit they would earn from the 

project in the future. 

She would have agreed to it with no hesitation if 

Samuel had proposed that earlier. 

“Yes. I’ll continue negotiating with them if you’re not 

willing to pay.” 

Emmanuel did not think Terence Group should pay for 

that. Hence, he guessed Mackenzie would object. 

“Okay. I’ll accept that.” 

To his surprise, she instantly agreed to it. She even
