Reading the message on the screen, Mr. and Mrs. Bennet's face fell.
50 million pounds?!
In their current situation, 50 million pounds was not a small amount!
The Bennet Group was not a tiny company, but they were not massive either!
Not to mention, because of their current situation, their sales were not great.
From where could they pull out such a big sum of money?
Mrs. Bennet tugged at Mr. Bennet's shoulder hesitantly. Should we continue to pursue this lead? It's 50 million pounds sterling!"
Mr. Bennet was also in deep thought, considering his options with difficulty.
To the Bennets, 50 million pounds sterling was not a small sum.
However, if they gave up, the loss the Bennets had sustained would not just be 50 million pounds!
Due to the Bennets' carelessness, their partners had all requested to cancel their cooperation with the Bennets and asked for a big amount of compensation!
Not only was the compensation a huge part of their cash flow, but their contracts were also canceled!
With the company secret leaked, everyone could have taken it for their own. This had, in turn, affected the company's reputation severely.
When thought about it in that way, it was not the most cost-effective.
If they could save their company secret and keep their cooperative partners through this transaction, then they would not have lost too badly.
Ding— A new message lit up on the computer.
"What will you do? How are you going to fix the flaws of the previous contract terms?"
Ziggy punched the keys unhurriedly. "Easy. I will take your previous contract and revise the terms that are unfavorable to you and tune up your software, as well as all the things I deem imperfect. That way, your contract will be valuable once more!"
Reading Ziggy's message, Mr. and Mrs. Bennet no longer hesitated. They clenched their jaws and agreed to the transaction.
"Alright. That's that then. We will wire you 20 million pounds first, and when the contract is done and sent to us, we will transfer the rest to you!"
Ziggy scoffed and smirked at the same time.
'Is the Bennets trying to rip me off in a time like this?'
'Don't be ridiculous!'
Ziggy quickly typed, "No way. Only after the 50 million pounds had been transferred will I begin to work on your contract. If you can't fulfill that, I will cancel the transaction."
Mr. Bennet pounded on the table.
"What a pushy fellow! If I had 50 million quids in my hands, why would I choose to delay the payment?"
Mrs. Bennet patted Mr. Bennet's shoulder. "Dear, we only have 20 million pounds in total. What can we do?"
Mr. Bennet frowned. "Rue should still have 10 million pounds in her account! Tell Rue to ask for the remaining 20 million pounds from Edward!"
Mrs. Bennet was a little taken aback. "Darling, will Edward give Rue 20 million pounds? He wasn't even willing to help the Bennets..."
Mr. Bennet scoffed coldly. "That depends on Rue! If she can't even help the Bennets a little, I will have to disown her!"
Mrs. Bennet was shocked hearing Mr. Bennet's declaration. "If you disown Rue, we will have no children left with us!"
"So what? I can look for an elite in the company to nurture into a successor!"
