Chapter 758
Nina nodded, “Helios has to thank Mr. Goldmann for this. Helios has been working in the entertainment industry, so
he’s inexperienced when it comes to business. If it hadn’t been for Mr.
Goldmann, he would’ve fallen for the scam. The other party wanted Helios to invest $ 7,500,000. However, Helios
wouldn’t get any profit at the beginning, and even the contract was shady.”
Sipping on her fruit juice, Maisie said calmly, “The hot spring tourism in Winston Island is a big piece of pie, and it
attracts many businessmen to come here and invest in it. Those well-seasoned businessmen wouldn’t jump straight
into it. They would act according to the circumstances since it’s a big investment. However, Helios is different. As
you said, he’s inexperienced in doing business, and I guess that’s why they target him.”
Since they had the audacity to demand Helios to put $7,500,000 in their hands as a n investor, it showed that they
were going to rip off Helios.
If Helios really had invested in it, although he would be one of the shareholders, those people would have divided all
the profit into the early stages and then given the rest to Helios. In the end, Helios wouldn’t be able to get much
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfrom this investment, and in the worst-case scenario, he wouldn’t even get his capital back.
Gnashing her teeth, Nina commented,” How can these businessmen be so evil? What are those developers doing?
Are they not going to do something about it?”
Maisie chuckled and said, “After all,
Winston Island is a solitary island. It’s a business circle developed under the same developer. They lease their stores
to people who do business, and all they are interested in is money. They don’t give a d* mn about this.”
Winston Island was not a large island. It was about the size of the downtown area in Bassburgh. The same
developer owned all of the hot spring hotels and restaurants, so the profits were naturally in the developer’s
pocket.
The hot spring tourism here was divided into low and high seasons, with business being slow in the summer but
gradually picking up in the fall and being most robust in the winter.
Many businessmen valued the opportunity brought forth by the peak season on Winston Island, so they all came
here to
invest. Those conscienceless businessmen knew that veterans in the business world would not fall for their trap.
Besides, the developer was the owner of the place. The more the businessmen earned, the more money they
would get. They cared nothing but money, so they decided to turn a blind eye to the businessmen’s shady
practices.
What’s more, Nolan and Helios might be someone of high status in Bassburgh, but Winston Island was not their
territory.
Even if the Goldmanns and the Bouchers were able to get everything their way in Bassburgh, their influences did
not extend to Winston Island.
It was just that Maisie did not have a good feeling about this, and there was a voice inside of her telling her that
something bad was going to happen.
Maisie returned to the room after she finished her breakfast. Nolan had already woken up, but he fell back down on
the bed again when he saw Maisie.
Maisie climbed onto the bed. She tried to pull the blanket off Nolan, but he gripped it tightly.
Left with no other alternatives, she sat on top of him and tried to get the blanket from his grip. “Let go of the
blanket, Nolan.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNolan did what he was told and let go of the blanket. Maisie got up from him and threw the blanket away. When she
saw something. she threw the blanket back on him and turned her head away in embarrassment.
Lying sideways, Nolan propped his hand with one hand and asked, “Didn’t you want to see?”
“I don’t want to see that, you shameless man!”
Maisie got out of the bed, but Nolan grabbed her wrist and pulled her back onto his body.
He grabbed the back of her head with his hand. While he was kissing her, he grabbed her arms and wrapped them
around his waist.
After a long while, he trailed kisses down her throat and said, “I thought someone was trying to seduce me last
night, so isn’t this what you want?”
Maisie could feel the tremble in his chest when he was talking. She asked, “I thought someone ignored me last
night?”
Nolan looked at her deeply for a long while and covered both of them in the blanket.
“Hey, stop it. Nolan! Nolan! Are you a dog?! Ah!”
Both of them cuddled together and slept until noon. Lying on the side, Nolan gazed at the person in his arms with
his head resting on
his hand.
He ran his finger over the hair on her cheek. The sun filtered through the window and fell on her impeccable face,
further accentuating those beautiful lines on her face.
