I'm A Quadrillionaire novel Chapter 311

Chapter 311

Hanley looked at and waited for the two of them to make their decision.
As long as both of them agreed, he knew that Celia was too weak-willed to ignore her parents’ sufferings and insist on being with David.
Jon and Mindy shared a look.
It was just as they had deduced that morning.
This heir of the Chasez family was angry and jealous tjat Celia was with David instead of him, and that was why he had targeted them.
Mindy was about to ask Hanley to give them some time to consider their options.
Only for Jon to interrupt, “My apologies, Mr. Chasez, but Celia has the right to make her own decisions. We may be her parents, but that does not give us the right to make such decisions for her. If she likes you and chooses to be with you, we will not object. If she likes someone else and chooses to be with them instead, we will not object either.”
Mindy flushed. She did not expect her husband to decline Hanley so directly. She had already planned to persuade Celia.
“Oh? So you’re choosing option two, then?” Hanley asked darkly.
“It’s not that we’re choosing option two, it’s just that number two is our only option,” Jon replied.
Jon had always been a righteous man and it could be seen in his attitude and the way he handled his affairs. This was also why Mindy decided to start a business in a huff of anger back
then.
He had the ability to improve his family’s living conditions back then, but he refused to earn money from gray areas of the law. Thus, Mindy decided she would enter the business industry
and make her own money.
Jon would rather retreat to the county than sacrifice his daughter’s happiness for a brighter career.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll make it clear for you. You’ve worked for years in the business industry, Mrs. Young, now that something illegal has been found in your makeup products, have you ever thought that you would have to spend the rest of your life in jail?” Hanley asked sinisterly.
If they refused to agree when he was nice, then it was not his fault that he was being cruel now.
“What? You…” Mindy shouted in horror.
“Hanley! That’s not possible!” Jon said, suppressing his anger.
“Really? Just you wait, then!”
Then, Hanley turned and left the office with Elmer and Beautylish Group’s general manager following behind him.
“Jon! I don’t want to live the rest of my life in jail! Save me!” Mindy wailed.
She was truly afraid as the Chasez family was powerful enough to easily frame her for something like this.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let them get away with that!”
Then Jon pulled out his phone to call his old senior officer.
When Mindy blamed Jon for his unwillingness to use his power for benefits, she had no idea that the old senior officer had chosen Jon as his secretary because of Jon’s upright attitude. The moment Jon used his authority for selfish benefits, he would have gotten fired.
Jon knew that the old senior officer was a righteous man as well.
The call went through and Jon told the old senior officer everything that happened just now.
“Jon! Do as you planned, I’ll make sure your family stays safe. No matter how powerful the Chasez family are, they will never be above the law!” The old man said strongly over the phone.
“Thank you, Sir!” Jon said, tearing up.
with the old senior officer’s promise, the couple let out a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.
Knowing the old senior officer, he would surely do as he promised.
Next, the couple spread the news of the Beautylish Group selling their shares. Despite knowing that no one would buy, they still decided to try anyway. After all, there was the chance that an enemy of the Chasez family or someone unaware of the situation would be persuaded to buy it.
If they managed to sell the shares out, the debt was no longer their problem to deal with.
They did not hold too much hope as these shares were worth over three billion dollars but now had to be sold at five hundred thousand.
They wanted to set the price lower, but they were also afraid that any lower value would result i n arousing the potential buyer’s suspicion.
These shares were about to transform into a huge burden of debt. They were willing to give the shares away for free, let alone make a profit out of it. After Hanley left the Beautylish Group headquarters, he spoke to his butler after he got into the car, “Elmer, discover something in the makeup products you pulled off the shelf as I said just now. We’ll lock Mindy up first, I’d like to see if they still have the courage to talk to me
“Yes, Mr. Hanley!”
Elmer started making calls after replying.
Not too long later, however, Elmer received news that gave him a huge frown.
“Mr. Hanley, we’ve got a problem,” Elmer reported.
“What problem?” Hanley asked.
“Someone’s stepping out to protect Jon’s family, and it’s someone of pretty high status as well! We need another plan,” Elmer replied.
“Damn it! It must be that old b*stard! Just die already, old fart! Then immediately pull down the values of Mindy’s shares! Drag them as low as possible!” Hanely shouted angrily.
“Yes, Mr. Hanley!”
As the head of East League International’s Capital city investment team, Hugo had been keeping an eye on the changes in Capital city’s business world.
Progress has been rather slow these days, having only spent around a billion on purchasing housing every day. His superior was rather upset with him and so Hugo felt the urgent need to spend money somewhere as well.
However, Capital City’s business industry had its own inner circles, and it was difficult for a newcomer to join the circle.
Whenever they heard that some company needed investing, the investments were either
already done or East League was rejected when they went out to seek out new deals. Hence, East League had no opportunity to enter the market.
East League International had only managed to find a footing in Springfield because David personally got rid of a bunch of powerful families.
David was uninterested in investments of less than a hundred million, but they had no opportunity to invest in anything more than that.
Hugo sighed with irritation. His mission was very difficult.
He felt very frustrated.
Despite doing overtime every day, business was still far from ideal.
Yet today, he had received news that the chairman of Beautylish Group was selling 46% if Beautylish Group’s shares at the cost of five hundred million.
The team quickly started to find out more about this Beautylish Group.
In no time, data was collected.
Beautylish Group had a market share of eight billion dollars.
46% of that was more than three billion dollars.
They could not believe their eyes.
It did not make sense to sell shares worth three billion dollars at the price of five hundred million. Hugo could feel that something was wrong, but he decided to contact the other party first.
