Chapter 690
Max glared down from above. "Ms. Jordan, as you heard, paying for the damages seems to be the right thing to do. Please make the payment."
He said as Stanley took out the calculator to make some calculations. He then said to Charmine, "Adding up all of the antiques and writings in here, making it a whole number, it'd be one hundred billion in total!" 1
One hundred billion!
Everyone stared at them wide-eyed.
Since the Jordan Group's shares were dropping, they would not get 100 billion even if they sold out the entire Jordan Group.
What concept was 100 billion? Even when the Jordan Group was at its peak, its market value was merely 200 million.
Furthermore, even though she owned a diamond mine, the diamond mine itself did not worth any money unless she sold out her shares.
Once Charmine sold her shares, she would have nothing.
Nonetheless, if she did not sell out her shares, she would not have 100 billion to pay for the damages.
Charmine, still on the floor at that moment, frowned. They wanted her to bring out this much money as compensation? No way!
She stood up from the floor and said with a serious tone, "There are things on the floor, I'm not lying. You all framed me!"
"We framed you? Ms. Jordan, how can you accuse US of that? What evidence have you got? We even make it a whole number for you-that's tens of millions we’re talking about-yet you're now accusing US? Are you not owning up to your mistake?" Stanley looked at her in disgust.
The looks from the people around her had somehow changed negatively.
They had thought she was a capable and beautiful woman, but at that moment, they thought of her as a barbaric and cheap girl.
"Surely she doesn't have that much money! She's trying to get away with it! I’d suggest calling the police!" someone suggested.
Max merely said, "Today's the celebration of the Jordown Group, and I don't want to make such a big deal out of it. I can understand. Why would Ms. Jordan has so much money at hand? What about this: Since the Jordan Group isn't doing so well as of now, why don't Ms. Jordan pawn in the Jordan Group to make the payment? I don't mind making some loss."
Instantly, everything clicked for Charmine.
Max's goal was to take her Jordan Group!
He had all these plans merely to take over the company!
The crowd consisted of business moguls, and they were no fools. They could tell that Max was using this opportunity to take over the Jordan Group, but it was Charmine's fault that she ruined his collections.
Nobody spoke up for her.
In fact, Max had prearranged for some people to stop him.
"President D'Cruz, are you sure about this? Now that the Jordan Group is about to become an empty shell, nobody would buy it even if they sell it off at fifty million!"
"President, this is equivalent to buying the Jordan Group at the cost of a hundred billion. It's not worth it!"
"Let her pay by cash. There's no point taking over a bankrupt company like the Jordan Group."
Those bribed guests spoke one after another.
Max frowned. "Ms. Jordan is a woman after all. A man doesn't fight a woman, and I've always been generous. Let's just call it a deal. Charmine, as long as you sign on this share-transfer contract, we'll call it a day." 1
