Chapter 474: Chapter 475 Fix It With a Phone Call

Gerald glanced at Howard and said indifferently, “I’m not asking you for a favor. Why are you being sarcastic here?”

Howard sneered. Instead of being angry, he looked at Joselyn and said, “Joselyn, you will be my girlfriend from now on I hate to interfere with your social circle, but I don’t think you should be seeing people like him from today on. He is clearly just a useless nobody. I don’t think he can do much except ask you for help. It’s wise not to have anything to do with him.”

Joselyn was stunned. She was a little unwilling, but when she thought that she needed Howard to help her, she could only bite her lip and stand in situ without saying anything.

Gerald did not argue with Howard. Gerald simply smiled, looked at Rodrigo, and said, “Go ahead. I will ask Joselyn to take me to see Mr. Fenn.”

Rodrigo was stunned for a second and then nodded.

“Take me to see your dad, Gerald said.

Joselyn nodded and said, “OK. Come with me. I think he is in a meeting.”

Gerald nodded. Meanwhile, Howard snorted and followed Joselyn into the elevator. In the elevator, he sized Gerald up bluntly with an indifferent expression.

Gerald stroked his chin as being stared at by Howard, speechless.

“Ding!”

The elevator arrived at the floor of the conference room.

“Over here,” Joselyn smiled at Gerald.

They walked towards the conference room.

As soon as they reached the door of the conference room, Gerald saw the door of the conference room open. Many people came out with sad faces, and some were sighing.

They were obviously the higher–ups of the company.

Joselyn kept greeting them.

After they left, Gerald saw Cayden walking out with a middle–aged man in his fifties. Cayden frowned deeply, while the middle aged man had a smile on his face.

Cayden looked up. When he saw Gerald, he forced a smile and said, “Gerald, you are here. Let’s go to my office.‘

They walked toward Cayden’s office.

Cayden’s office was very spacious with a lot of books. After sitting down, Cayden said, “Gerald, wait a second. I have something to talk to Mr. Wheatley about.”

After saying that, Cayden looked at Belinda.

Suddenly, Cayden was slightly stunned, as if he knew Belinda. A trace of suspicion flashed across his face.

Adrien Wheatley seemed suspicious as well.

However, no one said anything. Gerald sat on the sofa.

Cayden said to Howard and Joselyn, “Joselyn, sit over here, too.”

Howard said, “Mr. Fenn, here’s the thing. Joselyn just agreed to be my girlfriend, and we are here to inform you. I’m wondering if maybe we can set a wedding date. It’ll make it easier for my dad to cooperate with you. Don’t you think?”

Cayden frowned and suddenly looked at Joselyn.

Beside them, Adrien smiled and said, “That’s great news! I can’t believe I didn’t know that till now. Well, Mr. Fenn, if that’s the case, forget about my previous offer. I’ll invest 800 million dollars in exchange for 30 percent of your company’s shares.”

Cayden gritted his teeth and said, “Adrien, you have raised a good son, haven’t you? The market value of my company is more than 8 billion dollars. And now you want 30 percent of the shares with only 800 million dollars? Aren’t you...”

“Things are different now,” Adrien smiled. “I proposed 35 percent of the shares earlier. I’m making a compromise since our families are about to be relatives.”

“Even 800 million dollars won’t be enough for me now.” Cayden shook his head. Then he looked at Joselyn. “Joselyn, I know you don’t like Howard. You don’t need to sacrifice this much for the company or me. If the worst comes to the worst, we might go bankrupt. Big deal! What I have is enough for you and me to live well for the rest of our lives.”

Adrien smiled and said, “Is that so? Anyway, 800 million dollars is all I can offer. If you agree, we can sign the contract now. Of course, now we have to add another clause to the contract. Marry your daughter to my son.”

“Dad, I am willing to marry him.” Joselyn gritted her teeth.

“It’s all up to you,” Adrien said with a smile.

Cayden’s expressions changed a few times.

Gerald suddenly asked, “Mr. Fenn, how much money do you need to get through this?”

No one expected that Gerald would suddenly ask such a question.

Howard tilted his head, glanced at Gerald, and said disdainfully, “What’s the point of asking? Aren’t you afraid of scaring yourself by asking the number?”

Cayden smiled bitterly.

He knew Gerald was a Watchman, but he did not know how many assets Gerald had. He smiled bitterly and said, “I’ll need about 1.6 billion dollars. The thing is, the capital chain is broken, and the banks...”

“Did you hear that? 1.6 billion dollars! Do you have any idea how much that is?” Howard glanced at Gerald with disdain.

“So, if the capital chain is repaired, will there be a chance to turn the tables?” Gerald asked.

“Wait a second. Who the fuck are you? What the heck are you doing here?” Howard looked at Gerald and said. impatiently.

“Shut your mouth.” Gerald raised his eyes and looked at Howard impatiently. Then Gerald said, “You are just a piece of shit without your dad. Only with an opportunity like this can you get to threaten Joselyn. In normal times, I don’t think Joselyn will even look at you seriously. Do you seriously think she will like an asshole like you?”

“Mr. Fenn, your friend here seems a bit ignorant to me,” hearing Gerald’s words, Adrien said with hostility.

However, Cayden had a feeling.

He knew Gerald would not ask him those questions for no reason. Instead of responding to Adrien and Howard, he nodded and said, “If I can get the money, I am sure to make the project bigger and better in the next two or three years. When the time comes, the profits will be quite considerable.”

“Mr. Fenn, you must have been so desperate. Look at him. What’s he wearing? Do you really think he has that kind of money?”

Howard asked with disdain.

Gerald nodded and said, “OK then. I believe you.‘

As he spoke, he took out his phone and made a call.

Soon, Leandro picked up the call and said on the other end of the line, “Hey. What’s going on?”

“Do you know Cayden Fenn, from Atlanta?” Gerald asked calmly.

“Yeah. What about him?” Leandro said. “I hear he seems to be in some serious trouble lately.”

“Yes. He needs 1.6 billion dollars now. You’ve got enough, right? If you don’t, just go to New Bank and tell them my name,”

Gerald said.

“I think I’ll manage.” Leandro nodded.

“Alright then. I am with Mr. Fenn now, and you can talk to him directly. I don’t know much about these kinds of stuff. You can talk with him about things like how to transfer the money to him.” Gerald handed his phone to Cayden. Then he said, “It’s Leandro Hanson, from Universe Group.”

Hearing Leandro’s name, Cayden was thrilled instantly.

Next to them, Adrien and Howard were shocked. Howard looked at Gerald and said, “Keep bragging. Even if you know Mr.

Hanson, I don’t think you can let him mobilize 1.6 billion dollars just like that.”

Gerald glanced at Howard and said calmly, “Why can’t I? I own Universe Group. So what if I turn it upside down?”
