This time, the United States government asked Paulson to negotiate because of the Rothschild surname. As long as he was here, Jasper would have to show him some respect regardless of the situation.
“What?” Soros looked at Paulson in surprise.
When they were on the way here, they said that this was going to be done according to the contract, but now there were differences in opinion.
“We can accept Jasper taking the money back and going back to protect the stock market, but if we have to stop sniping at Jasper, then how can we continue with the game?”
Soros looked offended.
“It’s better for you to come up with a good decision. After all… What we want now are results.” After saying that, Jasper looked at Ford again.
Ford had not said anything ever since he came in. This person also had a certain prestige in the United States, and it was impossible for him to attend just as a decoration.
“Soros, we came here to put an end to this matter, not to agitate it.”
“Ford and I agree with Laine’s request.” After Paulson finished speaking, he stopped talking as if it was not a discussion, but an order.
“Well… Since you guys have made a decision, then I won’t say anything.”
Soros kept his mouth shut, but there was a look of unwillingness in his eyes.
Jasper glanced at the three of them. Soros was angry while Ford was expressionless and not showing any emotion. Only Paulson was smiling the whole time. This kind of person was the most terrifying as they would never show how they truly felt.
“Since you three have no other questions, then this is settled.”
Paulson nodded and the contract was finally settled. The long-running financial war had also come to an end. However, Jasper still had a trace of unease in his heart. On the surface, there was indeed no problem, but no one knew what was going on behind the scenes.
“Since this matter has been resolved, then we will go back now,” Paulson said to everyone.
“Okay, we’ll see each other if there’s an opportunity in the future.”
Jasper did not ask them to stay. After the two looked at each other, they both clearly understood each other’s intentions.
Ford brushed past Jasper.
“Jasper, will you be able to maintain your current prestige in the future?” His voice was not loud, but Jasper could hear it clearly.
Jasper looked at Ford’s back and smiled lightly. “The new century has only just begun.”
***
After the group from the United States left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
