Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1563

“Me? What? I don’t even have the fifty million yet!”

“Then, when you do have it, can you give me two million?”

“I won’t give you shit! Let’s talk again after I have the money in hand. Before that, hurry up and go do your job.”

Harry cast Davin a glance and figured even a few thousand was worth it if a short chat with Davin was all it took. He turned back and held up two of his fingers again at Davin, implying Davin should give him twenty thousand.

Davin had thought that Harry was negotiating for two million. He gritted his teeth and said, “Two hundred thousand is the max. I can’t give you more.”

The expected twenty thousand had increased to two hundred thousand.

Glee showed on Harry’s face. “Mr. Davin, I’ll do my best. You just sit back and watch.”

He excitedly marched into the room.

“Hey, Zayn! Stop cursing. I have come to negotiate with you.”

“Negotiate? Let me tell you what. You should be smart enough to let me go now, else watch out for your pesky life.”

“I’m here to negotiate your release. Didn’t you say a mere twenty million is nothing to you?”

Desmond analyzed Harry, then snorted at him with a taunting look. “It seemed like I was indeed kidnapped for ransom. How much are we talking about here?”

Harry ran through Davin’s words in his mind.

Davin said fifty million. If he’s giving me two hundred thousand for fifty million. Will he give me four hundred thousand if I manage to get a hundred million from Desmond?

After a brief calculation in his mind, he decided to up the negotiating price for the sake of his four hundred thousand.

He coughed to conceal the calculative gleam in his eyes. He stood up straight and stared down at the tied-up Desmond. “What you said made sense. So I decided to allow you to negotiate your release with money.

“I know you said twenty million meant nothing to you earlier, but your life is precious to us, and your value was so much more than that.”

Desmond considered Harry’s words briefly and noticed he wanted more than twenty million.

“What? Is your life worth much more than that? Five hundred million is too little?”

Desmond cast him a glance. “I’m not leaving anymore, so there’s no need to negotiate any further.”

Harry was bewildered by Desmond’s behavior.

That’s weird. Mr. Davin said Desmond would negotiate the price, but this was different from Mr. Davin’s prediction?

“Isn’t your life precious? It should account for more than five hundred million. Why aren’t you negotiating?”

Despite the confusion on Harry’s face, Desmond didn’t want to elaborate further.

Harry continued to persuade Desmond for a while longer, urging him to negotiate his release with money. However, the latter merely stayed silent, refusing to take the bait.

Harry left resentfully once he realized he wouldn’t be getting any reply from Desmond.

Seeing Davin, Harry relayed Desmond’s reaction and asked why didn’t the latter act like how he had predicted.
