Chapter 1639 On Equal Terms
“You…” Kallum’s face turned red in anger.
Just when Chris was about to flare his temper after seeing the figure on the report, he suddenly received a message from Jesse on his phone.
Jesse: Stay calm, and go along with the procedure. I have a plan to make Charlotte return everything that she took.
After reading the message, Chris’ concerns were eased.
Throwing the report toward Charlotte, he feigned generosity and declared, “Since I have personally signed it, I will then honor my word and give you what you deserve. After taking the money, please leave at once.”
“Mr. Nacht,” Johann interrupted. “I’m afraid the company can’t afford to take out such a huge sum of cash.”
“What? Why—”
Chris held his tongue right when he was about to ask a question.
He quickly recalled that most of the company’s cash was tied up in sustaining its liquidity and investments. Therefore, withdrawing such a huge sum on such short notice would sever the company’s cash flow cycle.
“Based on the agreement, the funds need to be paid on time,” Charlotte asserted coldly. “If I’m not paid in cash in three days’ time, I will take its value in the stock. Or else, I’ll see you in court!”
“You…” Chris seethed. As an impostor, he obviously didn’t dare go to court.
If Charlotte were to initiate a lawsuit and get the police and courts involved, it would spell trouble for him.
“Given the current situation, she will have to be paid in stock,” Spencer concluded. “Can you please calculate how much of the company’s shares she will receive?”
The accountant started tabulating again.
Despite the disgruntled voices from the board, no one dared to go against Spencer and Johann as they protected Charlotte.
