NovelEnglishChapter 434 Chapter 434 Temporary Return to Country It was one disaster after another. My mind was drawing a blank, and I was drained both physically and mentally.
Jill had askedto take a rest several times now, but I honestly didn't dare to do so.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe situation at my company seemed to be pretty tricky. Even Glenn secretly toldthat everyone was at breaking point. He also askedif I could return to the company as soon as possible. I was perfectly aware that they wouldn't have contactedif it weren't because they were out of options.
When I got on the plane, Alisa was still tellingto get a proper check-up when I got back. However, I simply didn't have much energy left. So, I could only ask her to take care of herself too. Alisa and I had our own issues to endure, but we also wished there was something we could do for each other.
When I got off my plane, I saw Jack waiting forin the lobby. Jill wanted to say something, but she bit her tongue eventually.
Jack didn't handa document until we got into the car. "Harmon Group has indeed employed a lot of underhanded moves behind the scenes. They were unethical but not illegal." I read the documents and got pissed off. Leonard was really a snake. He used every legal move known to men, and my tiny stusimply couldn't bear the costs of the breach of contract.
The terms in the contract were littered with traps. They might've seemed okay at first glance, but the reality was that there was a pitfall in every single term. "What do you needto do?" Jack drove with a blank face, and his tone lacked emotion as well. However, I detected a note of concern in his voice. Jill gavea deliberate look, but I shook my head.
"I'll handle my own company. I know what Leonard is after, and he's not going to directly destroy it." Leonard's greatest fear was makinggo desperate. If Luca and I joined forces and worked against him together, he would know no peace.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack heard what I said and didn't push to help me. "I've looked into the matter regarding Jasper. Someone helped him pay five million dollars to his debtor so that he could return to Pyrosia for the tbeing. The person who made the payment had his men keep an eye on Jasper, but they probably won't do anything rash in the country." Jill looked at Jack curiously. "Exactly how much is Jasper's debt?" "With the interest piling up, it's hard to estimate the size of his debt." Jack's response madedraw a sharp breath. Back then, Keenan did drag Harmon Group down with him over a project that cost billions of dollars.
So much thad passed since then. I had no idea how the debtor calculated the interest, but I'd wager it was much more than what it was now.
With that in mind, why would the debtor let Jasper back to Pyrosia when he owed them this much money? Before I could pose the question, Jack already explained it. "The loan sharks care about nothing but money. Nothing else interests them. So, it's pointless for them to keep Jasper trapped in Manovia. I'm going to guess the person offered skind of collateral. Otherwise, the debtor wouldn't have let Jasper walk free." Jill and I exchanged glances. Both of us were a little shocked. What collateral would equate to billions of dollars? On the other hand, no one in the Green family would bail Jasper out or give him money. So, it seemed like several million dollars were better than nothing. Collateral? All of a sudden, an idea popped into my mind.
I looked at Jill, who sat next to me, but I still didn't have the courage to ask. I waited until Jack sent her back Jack hbefore popped the question. W "Could we use companies as collateral? Do Manovian loan sharks know how to assess a company's value?"
"They do. Look, they're not sstreet thugs. They have their gwm systems and professionals." Jack chuckled. Then, he immediately asked, "What are you trying to say?" "Jack, do you think Caleb's previous company was used as collateral as well? If he also owed smoney, would he have used his company to clear the debt?"
After all, Caleb's return to Pyrosia was too sudden. Also, it seemed like to he didn't plan to cback to M Pyroşia after he flew back to Manovia. Moreover, he kept asking for money from Jill, which roused my suspicion as well. If Caleb had also used his company as collateral for his debt, then could he be connected to Kara's death?
