“Philip Clarke?” Homer’s face darkened before he sneered and said, “Damn it, are you trying to scare me? I’m Homer Dunley. What kind of storms have I not weathered? Do you think I’ll be scared with just a few words from you? Okay, come on, I want to see what else you can do!”
Snap!
Before Homer finished speaking, the other party disconnected the call.
“F*ck!”
Homer looked at the phone in his hand and smashed it on the floor in anger!
He had already broken several mobile phones tonight! The housekeeper rushed over from the side and cleaned up the mess. She took out a new phone and put it on the coffee table.
Homer gasped for air. Just as he was about to pick up his phone, a man in a suit rushed in from the door and shouted while sweating profusely, “Chairman Dunley, things are bad this time!”
Homer shuddered and roared coldly, “F*ck it, now what?”
The man quickly said, “Our stocks have plunged till the bottom limit. We’ve lost 500 million dollars! The businesses under your name were also seized ten minutes ago. Now, authorities are checking the accounts. Also, several of your properties have been seized due to irregularities.”
Thump!
Hearing this, Homer’s blood pressure rushed up to his head. He fell back on the sofa, stretched out his hands, clutched his chest, and shouted, “Pills… Pills…”
“C-Chairman Dunley!”
“What about the other companies?” Homer quickly asked.
The man shook his head and said, “Chairman Dunley, other companies have also been seized. Now, all the properties under your name have been seized and your bank assets have also been frozen.”
“What?!” Homer exclaimed. He coughed violently and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then, he asked anxiously, “What about the partners? What did they say? Did you contact them and ask them for help?”
The man shook his head and said, “We’ve contacted all of them and none of them are willing to help. They also refused to say anything when we asked. Chairman Dunley, I don’t think things are looking good this time.”
