Expert Down The Mountain Chapter 12
In his office in Gardner Corporation, Wade was looking down at some documents. Suddenly, his secretary walked in.
“Mr. Gardner, Haco Corporation’s Mr. Robinson is here.”
‘Haco Robinson?’
Wade was taken momentarily by surprise before his gaze turned sharp, and his expression became icy cold.
“Bring him to the reception room. I’ll head over now.”
“Alright.” The secretary turned around to make those arrangements.
Wade sat in his office and fell into deep thought. ‘Why did Haco Robinson come?’
Three minutes later, he got up and went to the reception room.
“It’s been a long while, Mr. Gardner!” Haco was dressed in a gray suit, and there was a teasing smile on his awe-inspiring face.
Wade said coolly, “You wouldn’t have come for no reason, Mr. Robinson. Why did you ask to see me?”
Haco grinned. “Why are you so cold, Mr. Robinson? I heard that my niece was surrounded while she was walking on the streets and nearly got into an accident. That’s why I came! I’m worried about her!”
Wade’s expression immediately turned cold when he heard this. Naturally, Gardner Corporation had its own connections in gray areas, but they did not have as many connections as Haco Robinson.
“Haco, Haco Corporation has a powerful background and a lot of funding. It shouldn’t be hard for you to claim the International Prosperous Project as your own. Why do something so unnecessary? Why did you ask Marino Hunt to do such a shady thing?”
Haco did not deny his involvement and just grinned. “I’ll get straight to the point, then. I need money. Gardner Corporation has quite a lot of money now, right? Lend it to me. Once I get the International Prosperous Project and finish it, I’ll return the money to you.”
Wade narrowed his eyes, and his expression was terrible. “No way!”
If Haco took the money he had, Haco would be the one who had the say in whether he wanted to return it!
By then, when problems arose in Gardner Corporation’s supply chain, they would have to beg Haco for help.
He was definitely lying about lacking money. He just wanted to drain Gardner Corporation of its coffers so that he could have an easier time absorbing the company!
Haco started smoking a cigar. “Then, you will have to take the money to get a doctor to treat your daughter.”
Wade flew into a rage. “Just try it, Haco Robinson!”
In disdain, Haco stared at the current leader of Gardner Corporation, and he scoffed. “Wade Gardner, I’m the real king in Fliton City! Gardner Corporation is just a more competent company that appeared after mine rose to power!
“You’re still not strong enough to fight against me! Even if your father came here, you still would not be strong enough!”
Haco stood up and mocked him, “If you don’t want your precious daughter’s reputation to fall to ruin, be a good boy and let me absorb Gardner Corporation.
“Otherwise, you’ll find videos or photos of what Marino Hunt did to your daughter online.
“And not even I know what sort of videos and photos they are.”
Once Wade heard this, his expression turned as dark as a thundercloud.
Korah was his beloved daughter. He did not want anything to happen to her.
When Haco saw that he had fallen silent, he smiled. “Why do you reckon people earn money? Isn’t it for our wives and children? It’s about time you stop fighting against me!”
Wade was burning in rage, but he did not dare act on it.
“You should give me an answer soon. Don’t waste our time,” Haco said teasingly.
Wade schooled his expression, but his heart remained heavy.
At that moment, his phone rang. His heart clenched. ‘Has Marino Hunt already done something?!’
He quickly grabbed his phone. It was from his father.
“Hello, Dad…?”
“Marino Hunt is dead.” Lufian marveled at this fact. “He died an hour ago. Pay attention to what Haco Corporation will do.”
Wade was stunned. ‘Who died? Marino Hunt?’
He quickly calmed down and said, “Alright. Got it.”
